I occasionally hear some folks say that humbuckers sound garbage clean and Gibson guitars are one trick pony rock guitars. I beg to differ. Greg is getting some of the thickest, creamiest, delicious clean sounds in this video. Man that sounds sooooo good! Les Paul + Koch amp....Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm yummy.
@ferox965 7 жыл бұрын
WiserInTime No guitar is a one trick pony...only the player. At a jam last weekend, I watched a guy deliver some of the tastiest blues ever on a Jackson Rhoads...wish I had've filmed some of it...
@RafFail47 7 жыл бұрын
I agree. Though, to be fair, he's playing a '58 Les Paul re-issue. Those pickups were originally meant to sound like P90s. Absolutely love it when he adds the dirt around 4 minutes in .
@SGspecial84 7 жыл бұрын
Depends on the pickup man. Its not the guitars fault. Low wound humbuckers can chirp and chime with the best single coils.
@SGspecial84 7 жыл бұрын
This is incorrect. Some guitars do a particular sound better than anything else. Its generally because of the pickups. Hot pickups lack versatility. Its usually not the woods fault.

I think I may just have found the greatest 'classic style' (for want of a better term) guitar player in the world. God damn. I've been more into modern, innovative players (of Greg's generation, Kim Thayil and Fredrik Thordendal; of my own, Rabea Massaad), but I haven't heard anyone make a vintage-style Les Paul sound so sweet since my mum gave me her old Led Zeppelin IV cassette...

I'm curious to know if Greg is just running straight into the amp here, or if he also is using the old Gristle King as well. I'm only seeing the amp footswitch, so I'm guessing straight in. This video is my standard for guitar tone and playing!
