  • Future new guitar day and new song

    Posted by Daniel_Morin on May 8, 2021 at 10:36 am

    Many of you by now know that I am one of the lucky winners of the “How I TAC” contest and not the least other than that! I won the grand prize, a Gibson SJ-200 Studio. And @tpolecastro know I’m left-handed so he’s working on it. Thanks again Tony
    So to celebrate this event, here is a new song that I was just finishing when I learned that I was a winner. I think the song fits the circumstance well. It’s a “happy” song with a little Reggae feel to it that I called “You Are My Joy”.
    I used my Taylor GT Urban Ash and Taylor A12, my Dean electro-acoustic bass and the drums are courtesy of EZdrummer.
    Hope you like it.

    Congratulations @Daniel_Morin. I’ve enjoyed your playing at several VOMs and that Gibson will be played by someone who will bring out the best in it.

    Congrats on putting this piece together, and congrats on winning the contest! That certainly is a grand prize, worth several grand in fact!

      Thank you Dr_Dave.

      I have no merit for winning🙂 It was pure random number generator luck. I went on Google and found that RNG with the blue button🙂 that Tony mentionned. Set the limits between 1 and 183 and hit the button for almost 20 minutes before number 39 came out while other numbers (111 for example which is easlily noticeable) came out 6 or 7 times!

    Such a great and happy sounding song! Thanks for sharing Daniel. And happy FNGD! Missing the dog, though.

      Thank you Nolan.

      The doggy? Yes you’re right. Bad framing probably due to …….the thrill of victory (Wide World of Sports🙂)

      Thank you Jill.

      At least the bass player mustn’t have given you too much trouble. He is rather quiet in his corner.😏

    Congratz on your new guitar, @Daniel_Morin
    Let’s hope that Tony succeeds in getting a leftie for you, so you do not have to give this one to your son as well.

    Awesome happy song 👍
    And I spotted an acoustic bass 👍👍

      Thank you @Niels

      This time I will get a leftie🙂 but will it be a SJ-200? They are out of stock at Gibson and made on demand. To be continued.

    Daniel, I look forward to your playing. Very nice job on this one. When I grow up (I’m 70) I want to play like you.

    It’s great that you won the guitar drawing for the SJ-200, Daniel. I really hope Tony can find you a left-handed one if possible. This would be great. Gibsons are made in right in Boseman , so Tony may have some connections to make this happen. Lovely song you were writing as well. I managed to get my first vaccine shot at the end of April. I hope that we will be able to eventually get back to playing again together physically in the Montreal area soon… 🙂
