Greg Koch is a tour de force! From chicken pickin to Led Zeppelin, this guy can play like nobodies business & he's funny as hell! I bought a DVD with Greg Koch teaching SRV licks, had me learning the guitar licks and cracking up with his shtick! The world is a better place with Greg Koch in it! 👍🇨🇦
I’ve had these pups for like 4 years I still come back to watch him blow my mind playing. But also these pups are insanely good. I only wish it was USB-C to charge instead of micro USB.
Just imagine a Greg Koch and Guthrie Govan duo... both incredibly well spoken and fantastic chops.

They are like exact opposites. Govan is a sophisticated, humble and mega-skilled virtuoso while Koch is a hyperactive, middle-age crisis induced clown. They would not last two consequent gigs..
In one of Guthrie's interviews he says he already shared the stage with Robben Ford and Greg Koch and that it was a "religious experience"... it happened already at least once ;)
Students of rock, please note: at 6:46, you can observe the correct face to make whilst aping the "Heartbreaker" solo's behind-the-nut bends. Textbook example. Form those good habits early, kids, and they'll stay with you for a lifetime...
I've got the Reverend GK Custom Black model equipped with these pickups. Listen up: If Greg Koch was involved with the development and electronic profile of these pickups, you can bet the farm they are 'correct'. And they are to my ear...Thanks Fishman and Greg.
A triumph Gregory, I have witnessed many of your semi-commercial playing events and demonstrations, but this one has the Gorman seal of approval, and I'm sure you are relieved at that...keep rocking chap
Greg Koch, you are an entertainer. I could spend hours listening to you explaining whatever, you are the best. You want me to buy these pickups, ook, Greg, let's goo!
I just bought a used Fret King Country Squire Tele that has these pickups standard in them. Alnico V in the neck and Alnico IV in the bridge. Just tried out the guitar for the first time today and getting used to these. They are loud and breakup easily in my Spark amp. The push/push button is interesting for a little added boost. Will continue to try these out for tone/versatility. Volume knob cleans up the tone in a major way!
I've had them in a Fender FSR [reverse control plate Bill Kirchen style] for a year now. They are awesome. I go about 6 weeks, playing daily, before charging the battery. Only 1 time in the last year did I see the red indicator light come on to notify me there was only 5hrs. left on battery. IMO, the tone is much more balanced and the articulation is far superior to the stock pickups. For me, it was the best thing I could do to an inexpensive guitar as it replaced most of the "cheap" components. FYI, play with the pickup height. Like Lace Sensors, I've found you can bring these much closer to the strings than standard single coils.
'Sconie thru and thru and I remember seeing him 30 year s ago in a bar when he had hair and there were 3 people in the bar not including the band.....love how he displays his Zep influences without pause
Hey, can we get a Thumbs UP for all those that think.....Greg should have his own channel on net flicks!........................Love it, Love it.......You make our day Supergeek!
"-- And then finally you find that one position where you're not makin' any noise, and then your butt's...what's lookin' at the crowd!" Damn right! Let's call that what it is: half-ass butt reckoning! And who needs it! Not you, not the crowd, and certainly not your butt (butts are meant to be seen, not heard). Thank you Gristle Greg, thank you!
Seriously thinking about these Pricey by worth t methinks Pedal engaged it sounded a bit muddy but most pedals are like that Not sure what the pedal was but I'm sure it's the reason for his signature Koch amp No pedals needed
"At the end of the zombie apocalypse, there will be cockroaches, and there will be telecasters, and they will be in tune."
Priceless
Agree. Watch every Wildwood video of his. He is a gem and I hope he reads this comment so he knows he makes our days brighter.
David Canes I couldn't agree more. Greg is great!!!
Cockroaches ? Grrr! No another Beatles covers band 🐵🕸

The way the words just roll off his tongue is almost as creative as his playing. This man was born to entertain.
Few guitarists have such command of an instrument.
Have you seen Rick Graham play? He's truly on another level.

He is literally in the top 3 of any guitarists I have ever heard ....amazingly talented

@ Fuck you.

Guthrie is from a different planet than us..Gregg is great though !
The real surprise here is that he is a musician with a personality!

Honestly. Those pickups are amazing.
frankie reb nah
If this isn't the best damn demo/sales pitch on YT, I don't know what is.
Farm animals support Greg Koch

He's like that one uncle.
Strings 1043 guess not
I want to be your uncle
Unkle funkle
That bridge pickup is the most beautiful thing I've ever heard.
That is the sickest Tele I've ever heard!
Such tasteful and intelligent and entertaining techniques all around. I love this guy
These pups sound amazing!
I think Greg’s personality alone is enough to sell these pickups. 😂
It sold me. I don’t even know how to play a guitar and I bought a set of these pickups.
Greg Koch, you are an entertainer. I could spend hours listening to you explaining whatever, you are the best. You want me to buy these pickups, ook, Greg, let's goo!
Just discover Greg Koch today... Holly crap this guy can play !!!!!
Im simply amazed
I've had these in my Tele for a couple years now and love 'em!

Greg..I just modified your set and put them in my strat...push button and all..wasn't easy but I pulled it off !
One of a kind bro.

He is the Will Ferrel of guitar
Except that he's funny and good at guitar.
Ha! Yes indeed!
I say, I say boys about as bright as a 2 watt bulb.
should play with chad smith ... maybe
and Brent Hinds is the John C Reilly of guitar!
Damn I was considering the emg set until I saw this video- man just sold me some pickups!
I bought these and a strat set..awesomeness !
sounds awesome Greg! in process of building a thinline tele now and will definitely be adding the 'gristle' pup's!
'Sconie thru and thru and I remember seeing him 30 year s ago in a bar when he had hair and there were 3 people in the bar not including the band.....love how he displays his Zep influences without pause
Not only one of the most exciting guitar players out there but a massive personality too, always makes me laugh
This guy is my favorite guitar player/ general person combination. ever! I'm thinking of buying this, just to say "gristle" to myself...
I guess it really is possible to be too good at guitar. Good lord. Insane.
Greg, respectfully, when we're gone there will be cockroaches, Teles, AND silver stripe Peavey amps.
MuscleDad420 bandit 112 😂😂😂😂

MichaelLynMusic Netflix?
Awesome sound especially when it's not too distorted. The telecaster is wonderful!! 😍
He has total control of that guitar. He's making that Tele do shit it didn't know it could do.
Absolutely love listening to Greg play, true genius
I could listen to Greg Noodle for hours.
Greg is such a cool unique guitar player.
He is legit hilarious but man can he play!
Love your playing and videos Greg. Thank you!
Dig you Greg big time.So entertaining and killler playing.Keep rockin!Thanks Guitar Center for he demo
Had no idea Greg was working the guitar center circuit. Hmm. Maybe I’ll buy at guitar center now . . . not trying to be cute. He’s the man.
I wish I could communicate with my cats the way you do Mr. Koch
I've got to get one. Something we've all been waiting for!
when I watch him he’s so witty and funny...great player and doesn’t take things too damn serious👍🏻🎸
Koch is simply amazing.
TheTRUTH That's what she said.
Where does he get those fantastic knit caps? He needs a signature line.
There's a gal on etsy. She has his models listed. Probably a quick Google will get you there
Personality ✅
Fun ✅
And he can play like a bad ass! Phenomenal ✅
Greg and Tommy Emmanuel. How cool would that be!
I vote YES!!
What a joy to listen to your playing Greg! And good to know these pickups exist, for the next time a play with a band :-)
Love this guy. SO funny, and ridiculously talented.
you are best guitar player I ever heard, it so awesome!
Your insane, mad man, amazing guitar player
Always so inspiring. I just want to play!
Jonathon Winters lives! Greg has got it all together.
He could make a walmart guitar sound amazing
Blowing my tiny mind!!
Increíble guitarrista y músico, como siempre
Stand up and badass playing. Sweet..
I found Greg through his Pups, just as I found Pete Anderson through his speaker!. But, man!. Greg's personality sells the product!.
Greg, Thank you for being Awesome!!!
"Creature of the Ether" fucking love this guy!
Had to make sure the chickens were in order! LMFAO.
That tone at the beginning could raise Jerry Reed from the dead!
Great right hand , nice control
Damn the bridge is nice and compressed.
Greg is such a beast
mid shift punch to the throat!!!!! THAT IS SAVAGE GNARLY!
Kids, please learn this already and never question it again. The plug on your guitar is the OUTPUT JACK. The plug in your amp is the INPUT JACK.
If they come with those chops - SOLD !
Great! Love it...thanks! What would be the targeted pick up height? ( to the strings)
So where does one purchase these zombalized beasts?
Just put these in my Tagima tele. Good lord they sound good.
That was sick glad i just bought a tele
Dead on communicate on cats! 😂😂😂
Metal Poppins

Hat's off to cat sound! Epic Greg 😁
Holy cannoli!! Multi factorial mind bending glory!!!
Koch is awesome... Could totally do standup
I read it as 'Fish Flatulence pickup.'
Also if it's noiseless, how can I play them?
Start making music , not noise, and you'll be just fine😆
how do they compare to the kinman nocaster set?
Haha yes!! Best vid ever exactly when I need rn for my Tele 😎👌
Plugged into just one pedal (the green one)? What is it?
The green one
(Tube screamer probably)
GENIOUS ❤
love these pick ups :) thanks greg you're a legend
"depending on what side of town you're from" hahaha
This guy is a marvel
Greg is a master
What petal are you using
it makes racket and noise but will it play a song how about walk the line or pop a top by jim ed brown
Came for the pickups stay for the talent
You sold me on the tone here, but will I be mad when I can't play it like that?
