The 80’s; ten years just wasn’t enough.

Steve should be listed as one of the top 5 guitarists of all time. Amazing!

The best thing about him -besides his abilities- is how humble he is

Steve is one of the hardest working musicians in rock, a top level producer/engineer as well as a rockin guitarist.

Steve Stevens is my guitar hero. He is one of the greatest !! I met him last year such a class act !!

Steve is a musician's musician! A world class player and then some! What a joy to watch and listen to him!

A true musician. Brilliant guitar player and intelligent writer. Nothing Steve does is random, he know every note and every adjustment on his eqipment. If this video lasted 3 hours I wouldn't mind watching it.. twice.

Steve Stevens, Lukather, EVH and Neil Schon are my favorites.

Amazing guitar player. His complexity behind simple songs is astonishing.

2 words ROCK STAR! In one word PROFESSIONAL!

I love love love that tone. Perfection.

I watch this periodically to hear your technique and tone. You are amazing, Steve

OMG.....that tone and those licks. Stevens never ever went out of style!

The tone he gets out of this rig is PERFECT. I wish I could duplicate it. This is the tone I have been searching for, for 20 years! Goose bumps.

This man is the reason I listened to Billy Idol for over 30yrs. He even managed to make Vince Neil sound good, better than any MC record. He gets recorded guitar tones to die for. He's also unrecognizable without makeup on.

Steve's guitar works with Top Gun anthem is just simply amazing...the guitar intro and solo and the whole song, should have been the US national anthem...) To this day I'm still amazed, it just sounds iconic and it really rocks...with that song alone, Steve Stevens became one of my favorite guitar hero of all time.

I always loved Billy Idol however it wasn't until recently did I start listening to Steve Stevens. He is an astonishing amazing guitar player, in addition to his playing his tone is Beautiful & Badass!

Steve's an amazing musician, his flamingo work shows his versatility . His finger picking is so natural, obviously a great guitarist . Thanks Steve for all your playing that brought me great enjoyment , I was born 1960 so I have a lot of same tastes in music as you. 🙏

Sounds absolutely awesome. He's a very special guitarist

Wow. The complete guitarist. He's got it all.

Steve ,one of the Best Guitarplayer on this Planet.

Damn this guy totally shreds, love this sound and his technique. Fan for 30 yrs.

Much to be learned here by the great Steve Stevens. I´m also impressed by his humbleness especially considering how famous he is.

One of my all time favorite guitar players!

He is just beyond awesome! So sweet!

Steve is not only an excellent guitarist but an arranger as well to Billy songwriting, they make a very potent team

Such a fan! As a totally tone deaf, out of time, musically dyslexic, lover of music, I watch all his videos as possible. Get so much enjoyment just listening to his no nonsense presentations. Always leave feeling so much more educated, but more so, more enriched and elevated.

Love the "attitude" that his playing has. He's got style and swagger.

Epic SOUND! Stevens is the total package. Always has been.

Steve is actually a monster picker... Way better than many who are world renown as great players...

Awesome, Steve is my rock idol...

Very underrated guitarist, dude is fu#kin wicked!!!!

That tone is fucking BANGIN'!

So awesome rock powerful tone,,that´s the real thing!!

7:51 .... OHHhhhh ... beautiful ...those sounds melt my frozen heart

Steve is such a nice fellow. So talented too.

What an awesome guy!

so effortless, the music just pours out of his guitar.

Les Paul makes sence in his hands... And such a powerful rock sound...

50 years later & a hot rodded Plexi is still the shit.

My favorite guitarist

Fantastic steve

Josie is such lucky woman! I'd LOVE it if I could be having my morning coffee while my hubby shreds down the hallway in his at-home recording studio. So cool! ☮️❤️🤘

sounds so organic....and awesome....

I like the atmosphere of this place

One of the greats-what a player!

The awesome Mr. Steve Stevens !!

Really down to earth guy, such a pleasure to hear

Epic sounds!

No bears were killed making this video. Hahaha. Now clean your room! Great stuff as always.

He's just so clever , a real professional guitarist , it's almost like a science with him

sounds really good!!!!!!!!!!

killer tone

If I just had an 1/8 of this man's talent on guitar I'd be a happy man

what a tone!!!!

Monster guitar player!!!

badass dude..!

Just like Vito Bratta he‘s got a great taste in his playing, which is really important. Nothing worse than robotic shredders.

I m proud of Steeve

Sweet thanks Steve

Super guitariste !!! Vraiment

"More more more" Steven!!!

When I see Steve Stevens o say I wannabe that guy he rocks

Great tone, mostly because it is Steve who is playing!

Seems like a humble guy.

He's using a Friedman Steve Stevens signature amp ;)

OMG tha tone

The Perfect Guitar Player between Fast and Slow!!

Amp sounds amazing

billy idol is so damn Lucky to have Steve :)

Great Video

Shit gets real around the 4 minute mark. Wow factor... Achieved!

3:40 "You get a pretty clean sound" ... "And then if I turn my guitar up you get, (insert the sound of angels crying)" .. 4:53 "And that sort of natural, Um... hey look guys, it just started to rain outside!". This has to be one of the best guitar videos on KZfaq, you can hear every note.

Jesus H Christ!! That sounds fucking amazing!!!

i like that BAE mic pre with his mod - right now i'm running two API 512c's with a SM57 on one speaker and a KSM313 on the other having to use two tracks - it would be nice to get the BAE SS mod and only need one track but it is a tad pricey

what a set up!!

He likes what I like and I like what he does! Rock on!

i know huh, steve's a bad ass.

Do an instrumental album !

sonds great awsome

Nice tone

Y yo que creia que no era tan bueno... Me voy a llorar un poco 😢...😊🎉🎉🎉❤

Me encantaría cantar un blues con el gran Steve Stevens........y con Erick Clapton ......jiji acaso....¿ es mucho pedir?

phenominal!

Steve is such underrated. Love this guy !

"It's really simple to use" :D

man he makes you want to learn guitar!

usually people this good are terrible people. Steve is a man of the people.

Whoa!

The way I make sure that my mics are lined up correctly, I record a couple of staccato hits on my guitar and look at the waveform of each mic by using tap to transient and cut the beginning of the waveforms and make sure they're lined up. It works every time. But first you make sure you place your main mic in a position where the tone is right for you, then match each mic to the main one. I use 4 or 5 mics and record them all in their own separate tracks and pick the best combination. I use a 4 x 12 Scumback replica of a 1960B Marshall cab with 70' specs with 4 different speakers(Scumback BH75, M75, H75 and Celestion V30) I do this so I don't have to switch cabinets everytime I'm looking for a different tone. Blending all these different speakers gives me a fuller tone since they all sound different. I think the way I do it saves time.

a new album with Billie Idol please for 2021.....come on

Damn that sound is insane, stadium sound. what delay is he using? I'm guessing a tc from seeing some of his rig rundowns?

最高‼

This dude is such a balls to the wall player.

I would like to see him in G3

yes he should be

*holy mackerel move over......everybody!*

Oh my God....

Does any one know where to find those light bars in his rack?

Is that just dry wet? Or wet dry wet signal? Sounds like the latter to me....that why sounds so huge I think but great rock tone from Steve what ever amp he uses...
