A genius guitarist with the most heart touching solos in the entire metal scene.He is the reason there is only one tattoo in my body and that is the logo of this band.
It is great to actually hear Wolf talk. His English is really good. Wolf is an influence, one of my guitar heroes I modeled my metal sound after ( or tried to, anyway). He and Jorg had this great, raw buzz saw sound back in the 80s.
That's why I like European bands. Imagine an American band singing German, Swedish, Finnish, etc. Obviously it's for the market but Europeans have to write and sing songs in their second language and still very native sounding.
Been listening since Restless & Wild & Saw them in 1985 on the Metal Heart tour & went to a Wendy's drive through after the show & all of the sudden their tour bus pulls in. Met Udo & Peter for a minute & just got a thumbs up from Wolf as he walked back to the bus. It was after 11:00 pm & they wouldn't let anyone inside the restaurant . Awesome show !!!!!!!!
Wolf´s Mutron Octave Divider is replaced by Salvation Mods Vivider pedal. This pedal was designed directly for Wolf, specifically to replace and improve upon his Mutron Octave Divider. It uses the same circuitry, but it is in smaller package, with true bypass and compatible with common 9V power supply (built in voltage pump).
The big pedal on the bottom left is an Eventide Time Factor. The one on the bottom right is either a Boss NS-2. The upper-most one is an ISP Decimator. The big blue pedal is an Analogman Chorus. Not too sure on the 2 other ones.
Restless and Wild album, last song, "Princess Of The Dawn." That entire album is perhaps one of the best in metal. It thrashes and headbangs and chug-chug-chugs its way to Glory. Classic.
Big fan of Wolf Hoffmann. His pedal setup is very interesting but I would have loved to have seen more detail on what pedals he's using, as well as some detail into what kind of amp he uses. Only saying this because IMHO he has the best tone of any metal guitarist out there.
I saw them in 1985 on the tour for Metal Heart. & talked to Udo & Peter & got the thumbs up from Wolf when he was going on there bus. I would have loved to talk to him for a minute.
In what part of the world is Wolf underrated? James Hetfield cites him as the reason why he in the beginning of Metallica only played white flying vs. Even Jeff waters says he is a fan. The whole world knows that Wolf is the Godfather of heavy metal riffing.
No that would be Toni Iommi of black Sabbath ! Another great player & uses a flying V is Michael Shenker ! Listen to the 2012 live Rock Bottom as it has a very long guitar solo ! If your not familiar with Michael Shenker he was the one who started the Scorpions with his brother stepping in then some years later quit & went solo & he used to say that when playing in front of a audience he was scared as hell & could hardly take it & one way to over come his fear was to drink heavily which nearly killed him until he quit all together drinking & touring but has made a come back again sober & good as ever .
@@peteloomis8456 you're carrying coals to Newcastle when you're trying to convince me of msg. ;-) Of course you don't know me and thus can't know that I'm an old fart that listened to scorpions in the mid 70s already. And I really do appreciate your recommendation. cheers brother!
Wolf I am humbled because I have never heard in my ear a tone that drives me more than the tone on BALLS TO THE WALL. Off the studio album I can not decifer EL34 or 6L6. Back in the day I was running a Boogie mark 111 and still couldn't pull of the gain and low end at the same time. I have nothing to offer but if you could get me started on that old baseline tone I would appreciate it.
A great band.i was a fan since way back,balls to walls,fast as a shark, princess of the dawn,so on.now I love the new album,love the video very cool.i wish they would play in florida.that would be great.you would sell out quick and pack a stadium.we go back a long time.when all the new fans were in diaper s.that is why so many new fans weren't aware of a very strong fallowing.you can't contoll who we love.and what we already knew.that is why old fans are called,old school.thanks🎉😁👽💡👍🌟🤪🎉🤘
A lot more reverb than I would have thought. Wolf has a great tone, just as good as Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top. Maybe even better tone. I bought the Bogner La Grange to try and emulate that similar tone. It's not as easy as it sounds.
Anyone know what those pedals are he shows in his rig? The white one looks like something from Ibenez or DOD, but the video quality is so grainy, I can't make them out.
Marshall JCM 800 heads + Treble boost with a full volume. Guitars with EMG81+ SA pick ups. Some delays, flanger and octaver. ..and his passion of Heavy Metal which is the most important thing in the whole thing 🤘
I shot a picture of the setlist Wolf had in front of him last Saturday. I guess the numbers next to the song are the settings for the effect combinations of each song. hxxp://imageshack.us/a/img254/3606/setlist.jpg
Don't fool yourselves. The greatest are playing on Wizard. They are the best amps and are hand made. I'd say you can get one for 4300$ mini (without a cab). The rest, like he said, is decoration for sponsoring.
My favorite metal guitarist. So talented but so underrated.
I have to agree with underrated :-(
I love the lead in Princess of the Dawn. It's not fancy, it's not fast, but it cuts like a hot knife through butter. The timbre is fantastic.
True
He's always one of my favorites.
Marshallsatten Mine too, pretty much. It was mainly his playing that caused me to pick up a flying v and start learning to play hea y metal

Niiiice
he is one of the best
It is great to actually hear Wolf talk. His English is really good. Wolf is an influence, one of my guitar heroes I modeled my metal sound after ( or tried to, anyway). He and Jorg had this great, raw buzz saw sound back in the 80s.
he is talented and not as well known sadly and smart
He has real estate in USA and he often comes there, that's why his english is good.
That's why I like European bands. Imagine an American band singing German, Swedish, Finnish, etc. Obviously it's for the market but Europeans have to write and sing songs in their second language and still very native sounding.
Some all time great riif's. Great player and that Wizard is a smoking amp. I love that he was honest about his small rig...
Been listening to Heavy Metal for over 35 years. He is the greatest and my favorite guitar player of all time period!

Wolf Hoffman is my fav. guitarist and why he's so underrated I'll never know. I've been learning Accsept's songs lately and their brilliantly done.
Such wonderfully melodic solos rooted in classical music. Adds such color and emotion to the music.
The big pedal on the bottom left is an Eventide Time Factor. The one on the bottom right is either a Boss NS-2. The upper-most one is an ISP Decimator. The big blue pedal is an Analogman Chorus. Not too sure on the 2 other ones.
Such an Underrated Guitarist, as good as there is. Cant wait hear all of Too mean to Die!
Restless and Wild album, last song, "Princess Of The Dawn."
That entire album is perhaps one of the best in metal. It thrashes and headbangs and chug-chug-chugs its way to Glory. Classic.
Does this start with famous fast as a shark?
In the concert DVD that comes with Blind Rage...which is the Stalingrad tour... he is using a Kemper
Definitely one of the most underrated guitar players ever! He´s machine when it comes to riffing and soloing for over 30 years

One of my fav guitar players!
Love me some Wolf. He speaks very good English. Cool guy for sure,and a spectacular musician.
Wolf Hoffmann kicks ass on guitar.
Love that Wizard tone, and Kemper
I saw them in 1985 on the tour for Metal Heart. & talked to Udo & Peter & got the thumbs up from Wolf when he was going on there bus. I would have loved to talk to him for a minute.
LOVE THIS MAN!
"Very simple,robust. I love it!" Very Accept,Wolf Hoffmann. I love it!
Wolf Hoffmann is one of the best. Keep on rocking! \m/
Fenómeno, el mejor guitarra del momento sin duda

Wolf talks with more of a Swedish accent than a German one
Listening to Eddie Trunk talk about how underrated Wolf is on guitar and as a songwriter. And he is 100% correct!
Love his playing!
he's a fucking ace, and their live perfomances are always fucking great, my favorite hard rock band from germany.
Thank you for posting this. I enjoyed it.
It was from Z7 in Pratteln, I was in the public!
Wolff you should sell your kemper profiles online! Fans / guitar players would love it, and its another income stream? Id like to have em. ;)

It's a Wizard Amp
George Lynch has used them, too
great to see stuff like this! :)
Great classical metal player and background voice
Is there any pedal out there (affordable) that can give at least a bit of that incredible "Wolf" sound???
An Ibanez Super Metal SML.. from the 80s

Bad ass guitarist! top 10 all time for sure.
when they are touring, how do they transport all that equipment?
A lot more reverb than I would have thought. Wolf has a great tone, just as good as Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top. Maybe even better tone. I bought the Bogner La Grange to try and emulate that similar tone. It's not as easy as it sounds.
What amp is that? What do you use for your distortion sound?
Intro: Princess of the dawn
¡¡¡Wolf es EL PUTO AMO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What speakers does wolf use/like
Brian Johnson and now Bruce Willis on guitar wow Accept have changed :P
pssst **I'm kidding** XD
And Tarantino at drums:)
He lost his hair to be less cool. With that long hair he would be too powerful on stage i guess...jajj
@@claudiocruzat4624 it turns out even Ayrian dudes go bald. Who would have thought
Yes,i know,you are kidding! Because i 've been same thing🤣
Which model of guirat is he using ?
Is that the Wizard Modern Classic II 50 watt?
What pedal amp switcher is Wolf using? I'd love one.
The one you can see in the video is a Prostage X05
Anyone know what those pedals are he shows in his rig? The white one looks like something from Ibenez or DOD, but the video quality is so grainy, I can't make them out.
Interesting. Thanks.
whish distortion pedal does he use?
pretty sure all the gain(distortion) is coming from the amp
he speaks english like a pure american,if i wouldn't know him i would thought so.
He leaves in America such a long long time.
ElTchibo1 didn't know that,but i had this thought too.why he left germany?well developed country and also a motherland...i'm a bit surprised.
***** he didn't like her policy?
Nomeans No , what for a bulshit. Wolf and Peter live just since 20 years in the USA.
Mark Pichler they left because of commercial ideas?
can someone please tell me the song in the intro?
Can anyone tell me about his Tuning ? Does he mainly play in Drop D ?
his head is perfect
Someone knows the equipament in the staying alive??
Marshall JCM 800 heads + Treble boost with a full volume. Guitars with EMG81+ SA pick ups. Some delays, flanger and octaver. ..and his passion of Heavy Metal which is the most important thing in the whole thing 🤘
What song are they playing at the beginning of the video?
Adam Bobro Princess of the Dawn
Timo Thijssen its not metal heart?
Adam Bobro no, thats at the end
From what planet are you coming from? It's one of their most famous songs.
What song play wolf?
Metal Heart
WOLFE RULES!!!!!
what the name of the first song of the video?
princess of the dawn
From what planet are you coming from? It's one of their most famous songs.
Техника, техникой, но ты молодец!
Genuinely surprised they did not just get an Helix or AXE FX and called it a day.
i saw him using the Kemper in a recentish video
Better songs than the last two Accept cds.
I cant find jackson v with that headstock
might be a custom job
Anyone know what the pedals and the amp are? I saw a recent video where he's playing Engl amps.
www.buyanalogman.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=AM-Standard-Chorus

Not a word about his wizard amp? Wtf!!!
The best guitar.
Wolf xxx

Prostrate! Just kidding, Wolf is one of the all time bests.

Hey Wolf is legal to smile you know ?
Eddie Trunk. Wolf > "That Metal Show" ! EPIC !

We need U. D. O.
Экстра Мега Класс !!!

Where`s the JCM 800 for christ`s sake?
They're all gone. I asked from him a few years ago.
Bruce Willis my friends...

P-A.B the rest, you mean all other effects? Because amp is just an amp, no matter how much it costs. Or are you saying about Kemper?
great amp - i use the MCII 100 watt
coller Bursche

He"s a raw food eater .
He really couldn't have crunched out some Balls to the Wall?

Bisexual
