- We caught up with Keith Urban on the road at the Guitar Center in Sacramento where he told us about his musical beginnings and showed us two Fender guitars from his seemingly-infinite collection: a Fender Custom Shop "Snakehead" replica by Master Builder Dennis Galuszka and an Eric Clapton Stratocaster with a left-handed Cabronita Telecaster neck. Be sure to keep up with Keith at www.KeithUrban.net and check out his latest album "Fuse" now on iTunes: smarturl.it/fus... plus, get tickets to see Keith on tour: www.keithurban....

When they opened a Guitar Center where I live I went by out of curiosity and in the front window were life size cardboard cut outs of all the guitar greats like Hendrix, Page, etc and then there was Keith Urban. Being a fan of just about all music I knew who he was and when I went into the store I asked one of the guys who worked there if any of their customers recognized Keith Urban and he said "usually not but when they ask who he is I tell them he is one hell of a guitar player." Whether or not you like country if you haven't heard him play you need to.
I just now realized how good a guitar player Keith is.
i play old school metal but i do enjoy watching this cat, and brad paisley burn up the fretboard. mad props to them as guitar players!!!
Keith has such an amazing touch. True talent. Makes it look so easy. Love the subtle bends and finger picking.
He makes a point there about the piano reference
Players player. Fender junkie. And a good guy. Donates to charities around the globe. I dig how he has his Frankenstein guitars. I worked one of his shows backstage in my hometown. Saw his gear first hand. And yeah his eyes are even more intense in person. Lol
Why are these episodes never long enough? i could listen to him play all day...
Me too. 😁😁😁
@@castleanthrax1833 Lol Keyboard couldn't keep up i was that Excited
@@imaginaryfriend9655 ✌️🇦🇺. I just noticed your name. Very nice.
I just saw him a few nights ago. Incredible musician. I’d like to thank his parents for being so cool. Helped it happen naturally.
Such a beautiful soul he has. Good Bless you even more Urban !!!!!!
This was great! Love to hear Keith talk about his guitars!
Love how excited he gets about his guitars. A star was born.
what a genuinely good guitar player and overall person
Keith Urban would've bought that Ibanez Telecaster copy in the mid-1970s.
Those were really good guitars! That was the era when the Japanese companies took off in quality.
thank you very very much keith
Keith Urban and Keith Scott are the two reason why I picked up a guitar in the first place.
Phantastic player with a beautiful mind!!
Keith seems like one of the most genuine persons in the world
I've seen him play a song on tv several times. But he wasn't playing the way he is here. I misjudged him, he's a devout player. I'll be watching more of him in the future. Ty for this video.
i love to hear him talk about things
👍Right on, for our Caboolture Boy! 🇦🇺
That dirty snake is what a real vintage guitar should look like! wonderful
Ironic that it's a replica, hey :)
keith urban is fucking amazing
🥀It's more like you were born with natural talents! Stay Gold 🥀🤘🎸☝️
He was born in New Zealand. Great Player. Very 'Up' music
Aussie
New Zealand is a country with 20 million sheep, and 4 million of them think they're people. 🐑🇦🇺
He's 100% correct on the reverse headstock. Thats mathematically the way is should be. The string tension is always better the way.
I remember Guitar Center, and the fender I dated a guy he was in a rock band that's how I know about the Guitar Center so much stuff amazing.
There are so many amazing, gifted musicians out there... Keith Urban is one of those extremely gifted people period!!!! He is a amazing person at heart first and foremost.... His family is first in his life, and his passion for the guitar and his music is fills the other side of his heart! He Loves his fans and He is a awesome dude all around point blank : )
I just bought his Ebony Burst Electric from the world premier launch as I cant wait to get it!!! I love the fact that the Action is real low for my little hands... it will make it easier to play !! The arched backing which will make for a smaller neck.. and so much more.
ALL HANDS DOWN HE IS A AMAZING ARTIST/ GUY!!!! I BELIEVE I GET A FREE LESSON FROM KEITH HIMSELF??? NOT 100% ON THAT, BUT IF SO THAT WOULD BE SO AWESOME TO HAVE HIM TEACH ME SOME OF HIS HAND MOVEMENT TRICKS!!!!
Are you still playing guitar?
❤it's really cool
😊
the tele is so beautiful
Holy... this "Tele" sounds amazing
Whether ya like country or not, kieth Urban is a major player on the scene
Selling many millions of dollars worth of CD,s. But as most know the money is made
Without the label taking all the money.
The love of guitar’s beautiful 👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🌻
That was an Amazing story. You were proactively born with a Guitar in your hands and Great story about you and your dad and how he encouraged you. That is what parents should do and look what you become. All those people, So Very Very Amazing coming to listen to your music and play your Guitar. And Love your music 💖💖💖💖💖💖🤠🤠

Ur the best Keith!!
His "Dirty Snake" guitar seems to have a pine body . Pine sounds awsome actually on both Teles and Strats .
If you're looking for an affordable Pine Tele body , Classic Vibes 50's series are the ones ..
🖤🥀Excellent sound on it perfect pick up on it. My Dad had a 1949 Gretch black body white guard's and running up the neck mint condition. He had a Martin guitar D-something (sorry I played drums) he intertained for the Troops in WW2 he army U.S.O...I've got a picture of him in Army holding guitar, Martin guitar D-something..He use to buy guitar from Someone in Tennessee he bought a Shobud Dobro from that place in Tennessee ect: I love watching you play your amazing in everything.
Does aynyone knows which amp he is playing? Sound perfect
*He's not Clapton, but he is AMAZING! Wow I didn't know he could play the guitar so awesomely. I hope he leaves country music and plays more blues with EC, John Mayer, etc.*
He did a show with John Mayer, Its excellent!
*I saw it and it was awesome! I really like this video and how Keith explains why he likes certain instruments. :)*
Check out Eric Gales..
He left country before he started. He was never country, but he's good
@@braylonchilcutt9670 Who did?
That guitar is soooo cool
I Always get inspired by the legends but tears comes out when my financial and mental situation become negative....
YOU ~ ROCK ! !
The strat with the left handed telecaster neck is so fucking cool I want to build a guitar like that
i dig him....hes a 60s guy....all about da music....no flash.....yep....
That buzz at the end
Sweet
I just love the fact that I live 10 mins from where he grew up
Today i learned that keith urban was british and also that he came to my local guitar center lol
hey Keith Urban good singer all the guitars I like to play with him
Yumm
The action on that tele looks like it's set up for slide playing. The action is _horrendous_. That's *insane!*
Maafa 1619 calm down buddy
Sounds beautiful for me! :D
You ought to have that there guitar reliced son..!!
just too flashy
I had no frickn clue he was English ha 🤣 I been listening to him since he started very good guitar player
English? Ahahahahahahahahaha!
Keith Urban is the second coolest famous Australian guy
Matt Elrod hes from new zealand
@@TheLittleColumbus fuck
Whats with his add about a new home for country in Canada ??? Canada was country while the British were saying skiffle wasn't kool . Country greats were Canadian and pioneers of the music.
Him and paisley sold their souls at the crossroads. For real.
1:55 "I got Fender to do me a couple of left-handed Cabronita necks because I like the tension of the strings when they are strung this way" Does this make sense to anyone else? Surely the tension would be exactly the same. If the tension was any different then it would be a different note. Two things govern the note and it's the length and the tension. Obviously the actual length doesn't change because the string oscillates from the bridge to the nut. I think he's just trying to justify the quirky appeal.
The length does actually change the tension. I know from experience building guitars.
+Lucas Osborn A string's frequency is a function of its length and tension, agreed? If the length is the same (distance between bridge and nut), how can the tension be any different?
+wikichris
You may want to take some courses on engineering.
+Mister Tee I have a masters in engineering. Please explain.
wikichris The distance between the tuning peg and string saddle are all different. if you put the saddle farther back (say maybe 6 inches) you would be able to tune it up as much as when it was where it was originally. The tensions does change regardless of where the bridge and nut are.
Id pay just about anything if he toured as a 2pc....just him and a drummer.
i play a les paul and a sg with a lot of muffing the bridge how is that guitar for that ?
There is no truss rod in that Tele? Wow!!
He has one of the original reproduction Snakeheads from a few years back and it has no rod, but that one is a custom built from Fender, he said he wanted it "beat to hell" and a truss rod added. One of the Fender master builders told that story on Instagram

Keith ....Jesus m8
The rest gunna Betray you..

What is he playing at 1:09
sounds like his song, Georgia Woods
His song "Georgia Woods"... one of my fave to play. Great composition.
Guitar
Wow that tele is better than owning a #0001
Why the eye makeup??
Why the bangles? :-) Image.
I guess he shut down the store.
Holy shit its David Beckham with a guitar!
Well they're both male. That's about all they have in common.
you sound like a nice guy,,can we make some song togheter?
How do you play the guitar
+Patty Heckathorn easy! Step 1. Pick up a guitar Step 2. Put the guitar down
Like Brad Paisley, he's a wonderful player who needs to seriously re-think the sappy dreck he performs. I get it, it sells tickets and albums, but it's soul-sucking production line pop with a salt-shaker of country spice.
I'd play the kazoo if it filled my bank account like his.
i'd love to kiss him
reversing the headstock like that doesn't alter string tension at all, fyi...
Isan Simpson The longer the string ( scale length), the more tension needed to attain the same pitch. The variables are the gauge of wire used.
In this case we are talking within 1lb. But enough to make a different playing experience
@@JBAikensMusic the scale is the distance between the saddle and the nut man...spare string past the nut makes no difference to the tension on the part of the guitar you play...between the nut and the tuning key is essentially it's own scale you moron. Try to actually know what you're talking about before explaining shit to people man. Misinformation isn't going to help all the naive players out there that don't know any better.
@@isansimpson2056 just found this comment. I disagree bro. Your theory is only correct for guitars that have a locking nut. Then the scale length is the same across all the strings. On a standard nut the string can slide through the slot....so the length of the string before the nut would alter the tension and feel. Strings don't slide through the nut you say?? Look at the Wilkinson roller nut system Fender used.
Yes, scale length is from nut to bridge but tension is from the ball of the string to the machine head (unless you have a locking trem and nut)
@@72mardy that's just incorrect man. completely. If that was the case, then why can you not calculate string tension based on the total length of the string between the ball-end and the tuner? It makes no sense. Playing a baritone would be useless and you could just make a headstock that's twice as long. Case in point, your guitar string between the bridge and the nut is a completely different pitch than between nut and the tuner. Your theory essentially says they should be one and the same, and they are not. Also, when the fuck did I say that strings don't slide through the nut? Sure they do, but that doesn't mean the string isn't "breaking" at the point of the nut...this is why break angle is so important and string trees exist....because you're setting the scale length. If the angle wasn't steep enough past the nut or before the bridge saddle then you're right and the scale would be between the ball-end and the tuner....also, if the string length after the nut or before the bridge saddle factored into tension and pitch, you would not be able to even come close to calculating the fret positions - fret positions only have to do with scale length.

He needs more mascara.
JEALOUSY is soooooo UGLY.
Good lord he's been in Nicoles Make-up bag again...
As long as he stays away from her plastic surgeon....
hahaahhhah YES
Guyliner 🤦♂️
Back when Keith was on cocain
@Hayden Lemke No he wasn't
@Chango Chilemba No he is not.
i thought this guy was from nebraska or mississippi or some shit........he was BRITISH!?!?!?!?!?!??!
Australian
Born in New Zealand and moved to Australia as a baby. Mostly Australian. ✌️🇦🇺
Nice guitar...I build similar guitars for $500-$800
RoadhouseGuitarWorks got an Instagram?
Not a fan got to have the real tele head stock
Why a dude would wear eye liner is beyond me.
Chicks must dig it, ask Nicole Kidman.
Why is this guy even here D:
***** You're doing it wrong.
Because he plays more than just shitty modes in his solos.
Jamie Payet Leled to that, thanks.
:)
Well number 1 hits worldwide, Million dollar appearance fees, I wanna be ordinary!! LOL
I just love to hear a guy with eye makeup who sings in a fake country accent talk about authenticity, lol.
Great player, but I hate his music
Luckiest man alive.
crazy when famous guitar players have completely shit vibrato....also more string length past the nut doesn't add any tension...but that's a somewhat common misconception at least...if anything the only difference would be in the break angle, which can change the feel somewhat.
Too bad he plays literal trash, if he plays at all.
@Elijah [REDACTED] Keith Urban doesn't play trash.
I would rather contract terminal cancer than listen to that album
Bert Galapia
Let us know when you contract cancer to see how you feel then !
Got a tumor yet pickle dick?
lil wayne is better
I own one of your electric guitars and it's the worst guitar I have ever owned. It never stays in tune.
perhaps you should learn how to play? I own one and it is fine..quit beating it..
someone for the love of god get him a tremelo. looks like he has Parkinson's
+Gunner Yelton tremolo* and the correct term is vibrato
uhh no. it's tremolo. you don't get someone a vibrato
im being a nerd here but actually tremolo is changing volume, vibrato is changing pitch. Look on the bigsby site or any whammy bar site, they call it vibrato
Yes, it's correct that the definition of Vibrato is changing pitch. But the technical term for the vibrato unit on the Fender Stratocaster is "synchronized tremolo" . Leo patent the name and the unit. As did Floyd Rose, who applied his patent on his locking bridge unit as well, with the name "Floyd Rose Locking Tremolo". So, Gunner is actually correct in the term "get him a tremolo". So, Conaca you are partially right, as well.
it's laughable that this poser is willing to get in front of a camera and pretend that he's a good guitar player. he needs to spend as much time practicing his playing as he spends in front of a mirror adjusting his mangina moose knuckle.
poser? what a moron...define poser..here is someone who makes a living playing music..period..by the way, how many songs have you written? or sung for that matter?
define 'good' for everyone kim, so that we can all see the light according to you...
@Kim Keith Urban isn't a poser.
Well....arent you one bitter flog.
Keith is one of the best. Fact.
