Guitar Techniques

Get The Tone

-

EC recorded the main parts on a nylonstrin­g acoustic. This instrument is featured in the song’s video, in which Eric is seated among his fabulous guitar collection. The track is littered with other guitars including steel-string acoustic (played by Andy Fairweathe­r-Low on the Unplugged video), electric slide and pedal steel. To get the sound with your own set-up, any acoustic will work. Nylon strings will sound most authentic but any good steel-string will work just as well if played with feel.
