🎬 Revisited: This Is Amazing Grace

Can't express my joy reaching where I am today with all my gear contributing to the high quality sounds I'm producing. Even the pictures and videos graphics are at it's best because of my new Samsung Galaxy Note 9 which was released few months ago.

Today, I played this song which is still one of my most favourite even after a few years. Covered it more than a year ago and at that time, I considered my sound good enough. Today, it just reached new levels. With the correct video angle and lightings, coupled with a HD camera and a few professional music equipment, my video now seems legit like a pro.

Usually it would be this thumbnail but today I've decided to opt for a new look in hopes that it would improve the overall look of my YouTube channel. My phone's camera now can take in-depth shots so there should be better self-made thumbnails coming my way!

I love my Line 6 Helix a lot, and I love my Edcaster even more. These 2 equipment paired together always brings me to my idea of heaven. Used the Worship Tutorial's version of the song patch in my Helix and followed exactly the snapshots intended for each part of the song.

My playstyle is the only difference between their cover and mine. I still prefer to play riffs my way and chords my way. But I still can't seem to get the hang of the fast-paced tempo in the chorus. Other than that, I think I've done what I hoped to do. I have met my own expectations after 5 hours of recording.

Overall this is a wonderful song to play and still as addictive as ever.

Now about the HX Stomp, I ain't using it as much as I thought I would be because the main Helix Floor is still my main for a reason. Thinking of selling it away but my gut tells me future updates would make this pedal worth all my waiting. And besides, I might just get back to analog boarding and this pedal would really serve as the greatest pedal ever.

Christmas is just next month and I can't help but wish I can get my hands on a new guitar. Since the Edcaster is now my main guitar, the Fender Deluxe Strat seems redundant and I would be quite happy to trade it off for a good humbucking guitar. Really eyeing some Les Pauls and PRSes now!
