David Gilmour - Where We Start (studio version)
On an Island
Gilmour uses a classic Gretsch Duo Jet using his fingers/thumb instead of a pick. I used my strat in the n/m
position and got a similar tone (no pick). Fairly clean (a little drive for sustain), I used a little reverb,
and a small amount of delay.
There is another version on here with the chords, this is the lead guitar. The solos are pretty
spot on, as are the fills. However, some of the fills could use some more improvisation.
