Kurt Cobain's Ferrington Mustang
Переглядів 11 тис.5 місяців тому
The Ferrington Mustang was built by Danny Ferrington for Kurt Cobain in early 1992. This guitar was used live once and used on the Nirvana In Utero album. I built my own replica of this guitar with the help of a few friends.

Kurt Cobain's Obscure Amp
Переглядів 114 тис.Рік тому
In this video, I play through a rare amp setup Kurt Cobain once owned. Kurt used the Hiwatt LA412 during some Nevermind live shows, and the Randall Commander head for Bleach and In Utero. It's very likely the Hiwatt LA412 was not used on In Utero, but I think it sounds great for the In Utero tone. This video was a collaboration with my friend Aaron Rash.

Awesome !!!
dude what happened to the Vintera in Smells Like Teen Spirit?
?
awful playing
Jesus dude. I mean, I KNOW my Nirvana but... you're attention to detail is astounding. There's another dude on UA-cam that Rolling Stone did an article about. Aaron something. Keeps advertising that he has the "secret" to Kurt's tone. His stuff is legit laughable compared to you. And I do not say that lightly. They CLEARLY wrote about the wrong dude. I'd like to apologize on behalf of RS sir...
aaron is legit, but he tries recreating the studio tones, which are way harder to recreate, and him and jq are actually friends and help eachother out on some videos
6:44 if kurt cobain was a hair metal guitarist
I wish fender would make a skystang 1 replica
I think the real difference is volume which likely differs a little because the univox pole pieces aren’t covered and have easier access to the strings
The univox sounds brighter but i kind of prefer the Eastwood
what is the first riff in the intro
if its something the creator wrote what are the chords
HOW DID YOU GET YOUR HANDS ON BOTH?
okay but like... can i have the echoflanger for free? its a great charitable cause
what did you pay for it?
The Univox sounds better
Very good “report” and magnificent reproduction work! Three questions: With a neck radius of 7.25, how did you find a bridge with the same radius ? Why are almost all the pickguard screws missing on the original Cobain? and how is it that the size of the headstock is smaller than yours, which nevertheless dates from 1965, the same date as the original?
1. The neck has a mismatched radius from the bridge, which has 12" 2. I'm not sure what you're referring to, all the screws are there 3. There are different theories, some think it's one off from factory, others say it could have been shaven down by Martin Jenner.
Does the quad have utah speakers?
They came with Duncan Designed pickups.
1:03 From Aaron Rash recent video, this is the In Utero recording guitar
You're creepily obsessed with Kurt but... dude, you're spot on with everything. I mean, you're "dead on balls" accurate lol. And that's a GREAT build! Je dis bravo! The cobain Jag is honestly a great guitar. Fender tone with Les Paul Functionality. Are you using Dimarzio Super Distortions or SD JBs? Great vid and thanks for the content!
I'd say I'm more gear obsessed than anything. DiMarzio SD in the bridge, with a DiMarzio PAF neck pickup, just like the real deal. I went pickups made in the 1980s, though I don't notice a huge difference when compared to modern day ones.
@@jq.guitarsIm a gearhead too lol. Only thing I don't like about the Cobain Jag is that the 2 volume and tone pots are too close together to really do much onstage (so I keep one volume and 1 tone). I also leave the "strangle" switch intact when I install the 3-way selector. So... where's the Strat with SD Hot Rails? I KNOW you have one lol
@@CaptainKirkDiggler I do indeed have one. Check out my Reading 1992 video, it's featured there
the sound comparison doesnt make a lot of sense between strings. the distinctive sound from the stella comes from the ladder braced birchwood body they all sound the same with the same wood and floating bridge / tailpiece even the parlor sized once very cool sounding affordable guitars
its a comparison between a regular acoustic and a stella set up cobain style. because most people have a regular acoustic and not a stella, i thought id make a comparison to put into perspective how a cobain stella differs to a regular acoustic guitar.
could you do a comparison with flat eq's? 8 treble on a twin is pretty mad. v nice vid tho xx
also w the volume bit higher on the amps to the let the tubes work a bit more, though i know fkn how loud they both are
kOm impedance depends from temperature
what an anti-nirvana thing... spending thousands of dollars to have a guitar that he bought because it was exactly what it is... a cheap, second-hand guitar... everything he bought because it was cheap, is now super inflated... this polychorus then, people are selling it for more than 2k, when it was a bum entrance effect...
i would argue caring about not doing anti-nirvana things is an anti-nirvana thing. i don't do this to "be like nirvana", i do it because making replicas is just fun. i used to be really into scale model cars, and building a nirvana guitar is like a fully functional model that you can actually play. also, totally agree on polychorus pricing. i got mine for only $600, which is still much more than id regularly pay for a pedal.
The mexican one has a better sound lollllll
why do i prefer the squier 😭 except for the distortion though
Hola que microfono le colocaste a la squier?
I'd take the older one, but it's close
how do you wire the mini switch for the series, coil split, and parallel?
Could you do a full shootout of these two pedals? I love the sound of the filter matrix with distortion on a polychorus but i cant afford one. I would love to if the echoflager mimics that sound
@@NamelessArtists I no longer own either of these pedals, though the echo flanger is the same as an original polychorus
Would still suggest the mesa boogie without the EQ?
did you have to shim the neck on your jag stang due to the height on the tune o matic bridge?
sounds awesome!!! did you modify your jag stang?
i'm goin' jaguar!
Los dos te llevan al territorio Nirvana, es evidente que el Ds1 es la distortion Nirvana por excelencia...
I can’t find logic guitars
Is it ok when the overload light is on? I have 2000's reissue and my light is always on when the distortion is engaged.
great vid! where does the mic'd sound go out to? ty
Man this sold me on the vintera II! Cant wait to see what youve got cooking up next, amazing content as always
This might be a stupid question but, are the rhythm circuits any different? Is the squires shittier than Kurt’s?
The clean tone of smells like teen spirit sounds same that studio version!! Good job.
I wonder how the amps sound not going through the Marshall. I think the Mesa sounds better, but maybe not without the Marshall cabinet
they aren't going through the marshall for the entire video besides the segment labelled "through the 4x12"
Ty. Missed that. Awesome video and great wrk!
I was looking at a mesa without EQ. Do you think I'll still get that nirvana sound? Your channel has been a big help! Ty
@@tomjoad8939IMO go for the graphic EQ version if you can, way more versatile. I own one of these and never have the Graphic EQ off, just sounds so much flatter without it.
do think the mesa boogie 5 band graphic EQ pedal would work?
It's so cool that you have a '69, I'd say that's a keeper
Hey man, every time I watch your videos I wonder how you change tuning so quickly on your guitars? Do you use any pedals, like the Digitech ones? Good video, keep it up, greetings!!
Editing magic. I just tune the guitars and then cut out the part of the video of me tuning
@@jq.guitars It must be torture if your strings don't break in every video xD
Hi! Great video. What amp combo would get me closest to that nirvana sound? Ty
How did you modify the small clone? Great vid!
I was excited when the Vintera came out, then looking at the promo pictures I realized the comp stripe was off, different angle and width than the original vintage . Not a deal-breaker but bothers me a bit that they didn’t do it the same!!!! Vintera is still very cool, and the price point is obviously more attractive than these current vintage prices… but damn fender, couldn’t they just get that tiny but important details correct????
I agree. I don't care much that it doesn't have a matching headstock, but that would have been really cool. The stripe is definitely the major low point of the vintera. It's a beautiful guitar, but it could have been so much better with the right stripe
Thanks for your reply JQ. Glad to know I’m not the only one who noticed!
Quad sound like the record and twin sounds more like the live tone very interesting
Great playing dude very cool
Did you do the backing vocal ?
Yes
3:08 every emo/skramz song in intro
