Scott Henderson Discussion

There's a live version of Jakarta on the Scott Henderson Live! album. Spears and Reality Check are owned by labels, so it's up to them whether to stream them or not. Most of the labels I made music fo ...

Thanks! I was in a little souvenir shop in Jakarta and I heard a melody playing on the PA. The shop owner told me it was a traditional Indonesian melody, and one of the local musicians told me it was ...

I have problems with that in loud, boomy rooms. For me, it usually happens when the sub-woofers are under the stage (what a fucking awful idea). Standing further away from the amp can help, but there' ...

The exact treble bleed that's in my guitars has been in my signature model for the last two years. I'm glad they finally solved what I consider to be a major problem with guitars. Some people like the ...

No, not since the Well To The Bone album. 11's are great for blues but I find them a bit woofy sounding for the music I'm playing now. 10's seem to work better for everything, and tuning down can be a ...

Yes, two 16 ohm speakers to make the cabinet run at 8 ohms.

Hi Tommy,

I don't know what kind of a bleed you used but if it wasn't the one wired up by Suhr, I'm sure it sounds terrible. I used a traditional trouble bleed one time and I took it out immediatel ...

Thanks Thanasis! That's just the RC Booster on the melody, but I'm picking really close to the bridge which gives it a more sitar-like tone. I could get even closer to a sitar if I used the Octavia, b ...

I don't have much experience using different cabinets and different speakers - I'm a big fan of Greenbacks and I don't like much else. I've used a 4x12 for such a long time, I don't really know what a ...

The SH9/ SD-9 don't fit the kind of music I'm playing on the road, which is more about dynamics than the very compressed sound those type of pedals produce. They're great for legato playing, but they ...

I haven't seen this one but I'm sure it's cool. The AnalogMan chorus is also really nice. I'm sticking with my Arion chorus just because I'm used to the sound, but there are some great chorus pedals o ...

Thanks for the kind words - I'm happy you like the album!

The main melodies and solos are mostly played with the white one-channel RC Booster into my '71 Marshall. I like it more than the two-chann ...

Sometimes there are no scientific explanations for things. Shit just happens.

Thanks for noticing that - it's something I've been trying to do more on my later albums. It feels great to find melody and solo tones which fit the song, but searching for them drives me crazy someti ...

Thanks Dan, much appreciated! I'm too close to it to comment on the music - I hope I've improved but one can only hope...

However the sound of this album is superior to anything I've ever done, mos ...
