Top Talent - Jack White


Okay, lets start off by saying I hadn't really picked up on this guy until I watched "it might get loud", which is a very interesting film. Page, White and the Edge talking, playing and being nostalgic..What you do notice is how much of an "original" White is. Whatever he plays, he gives it his signature big time.
Like Al Di Meola, the phrases and voicings all have JW's time stamp signature, and this makes his playing style very much his and unique.In fact, in my opinion he's up there with a lot of top names and he's still young.

For you to understand what I mean, I'll upload this clip with Al Di Meola explaining a subject which really struck a chord when i first watched this clip. Listen and learn to one of the Masters:






So, if you understood this, then make it work, it will effect you apply the law.

Now back to Jack White, loads uploaded on Youtube, here is a good mix of his solos on his different array of guitars, his fav being the Kay.I've listed his Guitar equipment.
