Awesome! Thanks again for another great interview with Slash!
OK I’m not trying to be a wiseguy, but I do not really believe that is Slash on that interview there. That guys voice is nowhere near the same, and he just kind of looks like an imposter with a wig and glasses on.
Sweetwater takes care of its customers and loyal staff very well. No reason not to purchase from them.
Nick is such a natural and always does a great job
He's a guitar master, a legend. Thank u for the interview! Always good and inspiring seeing guys like him still on fire
Love Slash's office - looks like a kid's playroom.

“All things considered” Slash is an icon ❤️
What if we only consider some things though, rather than all of them, does that render a different conclusion?
@@lomarsweed6604 Sure!
A living legend. Slash is one of the reasons why I play guitar! 🙂
So do I
Same
Same here
Same !
You can see how comfortable Slash is talking to this guy!I’m an huge fan of Slash since I was a kid and finally different questions like the vertical neck,picks and strings etc and not why he’s called Slash,how did he get his top hat,and other things that everyone knows cause they keep asking him since 80’
Guys from Sweetwater are always good interviewers. Good questions, respectful
Slash seems really comfortable here really "talkative". Love the interviews with him! Just remembered meeting him one time - he signed my guitar and said "here you go man" - what a fan moment .. :D
Hello it’s slash! I just came across your comments on my post here! thank you fan!!
@@slashslash1398 lmao cap
Reason I own a les paul and play guitar is bec of this man and izzy , and appetite for destruction....Thanks sweet water for a great interview....
Thanks for checking it out, Shiloh! You know, there have been scientific studies proving that Appetite is the best album ever made. 🤘
@@sweetwater mr brownstone, was tha first gnr song N first song i learned period , in the beginning......Thank you!!
Same
@@sweetwater i hole heartily agree with that....
Slash got me started. Later, I discovered Page as the LP king
But on the real slash is such a genuine dude. I'm proud to call him my first influence... Even 30 years later when I'm listening to Joe Pass everyday
Great interview. Slash seems so comfortable talking to this guy. There needs to be a part 2.
What an absolute legend. Slash always comes accross as a real nice, humble guy.
Slash never fails to intrigue me and keep me so interested in his conversations he has, and of course Nick is always a great interviewer!
Such a great guy. Slash is always genuine, open and honest in his interviews. LEGEND
Fantastic interview! I love how Slash is so chilled/ talkative and down to earth here i dont know if thats because he is in the comfort of his own studio or because he is in great company with somebody who knows what he is talking about (great job Nick!) 😎🤘 stay safe dudes
P.S im a massive Slash fan from Stoke so i may be slightly biased but i have his Epiphone tobacco burst and the Marshall SL5 (thanks to Nick for the awesome demos that made me go out and buy the marshall) amongst the collection and they are worth every penny, the select few who have played the epi have all said its the best guitar theyve ever played and sound tonally as good as or better than the Gibson variants at a fraction of the price, same goes for the SL5 hell of an amp for the money and for a 5 watt its LOUD!!!
Thank you for this interview.I really enjoyed it 🙂It"s good to see him in such a nice mood 🙂and have to say his office looks just amazing! Love to listening when he's playing or talking and smiling
Went through the fires and survived and now super grounded and mature which is amazing really. Respect.
Slash is so humble and casual!
Seen him with GN'R three times (something that still blows my mind...) and at a small club show with Myles. Got a backstage invite from Axl's manager for one of the GN'R shows and grateful to be able to say I met Axl, but still a little bummed I haven't had a chance to meet Slash and thank him for all the inspiration over the years. You can tell from these interviews, as well as his live performances, that he still just loves playing the guitar and isn't going through the motions. I also really liked this interviewer; he asked good questions and let the man speak, didn't seem overly eager to jump in and actually listened and let the conversation flow naturally. Good stuff!
Thanks Nick Sweetwater Slash three of my favorites
Great interview . Slash looking happy n chilled . 🤘
It is obvious that there is a lot of thought that has gone into the gear he uses and his usage of the Gibson Les Paul is legendary. He has also worked with Epiphone to make his guitars accessible to his hard core fans. A very humble, talented musician who has an iconic sound. You know who it is after only a few notes.
´´All things considered´´ . He just cant help saying it every time hahah. Good interview it was fun to watch :) !
Brian knocked this interview outa the park...GREAT questions ...showed the everyday guy kinda side of Slash and what a fantastic personality and ambassador to music and rock and roll...the music and history of rock would be an entirely different landscape spanning decades if this man had never picked up a guitar... future is exciting w Slash...
Another great interview with Slash. I enjoy his interviews. Great guy!!
...what a great interview with great chemistry! Asking the questions I always wanted to know. Slash - my all time guitar legend!
Thank you for a great interview with fantastic questions too. Cheers!😎
great interview and amazing input for some one whom grew up with slash and has a love for his style thanks Slash from Philly think we hung out once back in the day in Philly Revival club LOve you Slash stay safe brother
Great interview!
Great interview by these two!
Great interview Nick . Thanks for not asking the same old questions. Rock on!!!
Slash should drop a song or an album called " all things considered" haha
As soon as I read your comment he said all things considered
Yeah, it actually gave me some hang ups. 🤣
But this is probably the most relaxed and at ease I’ve seen him in an interview ever.
@KevinMaund: 😂!
Great interview! Had exactly the same questions I’ve always wanted to ask Slash!
Love Nick and Slash. Always enjoy hearing one or the other talkin. 🤘🏼
Slash is the most unspoken of Guitar God on Earth! The MTV Video of Knockin On Heaven’s Door where he did his part and walked off stage is what made me drop my drumsticks and begin my Guitar Addiction!
This interviewer is great. Knows what to ask and how. Good work!
Slash thanks for being here in the philippines with axl and Duff, the music you make with GNR really makes us rock en roll and guitar players so sane right now specialy this pandemic period, where everybody stays inside and do their things. Really appreaciate your music men, you are really are an avatar in music realm, this is Ariz V from Philippines. Peace✌ Brother!
Great interview Nick!
Great Interview 👏🏻 good to hear that you are both fine 💪🏻 stay safe and keep on rocking ✊🏻
Absolute legend and such a humble guy!
Slash seems like such a genuine nice guy, would love to get a beer with him one day!
You’re like one of the guys, not a jerk celebrity. Thanks for all the great music man!
I often throughout my life had thought I was born a few decades too late. This interview just made me realize .Had I been born too early, I wouldn't have had slash as my guitar hero. Don't get me wrong I own many diffrent brands of guitar, but the few times I made it on stage I always took my Les Paul. Not sure why I felt the need to share this. If you are lucky enough to own a Les Paul , you will see they are truly magical.
Cool interview
Just like the last interview you did with Slash, this was awesome!
I want to specially appreciate you for being a big fan. thank for your nice comments on my post, it means a lot to me. I want you to send me a direct message via..

Great interview what a legend slash is down to earth guy and a great influence
Slash your the best man may god bless big inspiration to me when it comes to playing guitar one of the greatest to ever pick up a guitar and such a cool guy all around !! Keep proving people wrong !!
Been wanting to try the mxr slash octafuzz for a long while now. Havent stumbled on one in the wild yet
“Who doesn’t like an empty box you can put shit in“
This guy is just the best !
Zep 2 is awesome man, great album, great job on Lie and Spaghetti, I personally like those albums, I grew up listening to appetite, one of my dad's favorite albums, earliest memory is listening to it in the car with him on a car ride when I was 3 or 4. I love your pickups too, i got them in a bright green burst les Paul I made from a kit and shaped myself
REALLY interested to see what he is working on....:) Lots of time to create. When this COVID thing levels out there will be a LOT of new music no doubt as a result of the more home time and the various things many have gone through.
Amazing interview! Fall to pieces hahahahaha Greetings from Córdoba, México !
I have that also and that's a gift.when i hear a song on tv or anywhere else i know the notes and chords before i even touch my guitar.And that's what makes a great musician.i'm glad that Slash tells about that.because i'm also very fortunate to have that gift also like him and other musicians that i know.Great interview 👌
Slash is an absolute legend and a huge inspiration for me.

Great interview. Best I've ever seen with Slash for playing and tone insights. My biggest thing is an idea for replicas of the amps used to record AFD and UYI. I was friends with Frank Levi and discussed with him before his passing of collaborating with Marshall with Slash's consent to make replicas of those amps that he modded for SIR in LA. Frank was on-board but it never happened. Marshall wrote me back that they created the AFD100 for that sound already. Its a great amp but you can't make 1 amp sound like a modded 800 and a modded plexi. It would've been too easy to mod the reissue JCM800s and 1959SLPs already in production with a few tweaks to the schematic based on Franks guidance. Would still be really cool to see that happen and I know there would be a big market for that. Just saying.
Agree, Marshall has been behind the ball for the last decade... its really unbelievable to watch them flat out refuse to offer a modded 1959 and 2203, while they watch Friedman and others successfully take their place in the market.
All I can say is that the money is in emulation these days.
Always loved Slash! He's the reason I play a Les Paul 🤘😎🤘
Best question and answer
What a cool guy Slash is! Good interview, Nick!
I want to specially appreciate you for being a big fan. thank for your nice comments on my post, it means a lot to me. I want you to send me a direct message via..
Love Slash, grew up Guns n Roses,,
I've met so many muscians, Eddie Van Halen, and ton's of bands,
I never met Slash, however, Marc Canter got a few things signed for me back in 2008 at his deli.
Always loved Slash, he's always been a regular humble guy, down to earth, he doesn't think he's better then you, he's always interesting and knowledgeable.
Great interview! Great job Nick. Love your videos. Slash is just as cool as the other side of the pillow. Great guitarist.
"I have a hard time thinking!" Perfect! I totally get it! I never think; well, almost never; when I'm doing a lead. Of course I think about the changes that I have to play over, but so does everybody else. Slash is great!
I want to specially appreciate you for being a big fan. thank for your nice comments on my post, it means a lot to me. I want you to send me a direct message via..
Really looking forward to the Epiphone Slash signature models!
He is my guitar idol. I started guitar thanks to Slash
I, love, Slash!
Good interview
Hello it’s slash! I just came across your comments on my post here! thank you fan.!!
Slash is dropping lots of interesting stuff here!!!
Can't wait for my Victoria to arrive!

So The Slash Strings are the same as the Power Slinkies but with a box?
Always nice to hear his real voice. I'll never forget watching him in that metal show.....he was using his low pitch TV appearance voice and as soon as they went to commercial they left his mic on for a second before fading out to commercial...his voice went from super deep cool sounding to this...it was hilarious
Really? That's hilarious. Even Slash is self-conscious about his speaking voice eh?
@@Nghilifa u have to watch it I'm sure it's on UA-cam somewhere...goes to show it doesn't matter how cool we think a person may be they will always have their own insecurities
@@Nghilifa
If Kirk Hammett isn't, then Slash certainly shouldn't be.
Great interview. Slash mentioned it was Jimmy page playing a les paul that introduced slash to the les paul.! Well for me as a 12 year old it was Slash that introduced me to the tone and beauty of a les paul.. I bought the Epiphone slash signature (tobacco burst) in 2008 and it still an awesome guitar.!! Better than my Gibson les paul studio
I was also 12 when I discovered slash and the les Paul, I have les Paul copy si ce I was 14,15,but my best friend have epiphone slash tobacco and iz is awesome guitar, cheers! 🤘🥃
Slash is amazing guitar player got into him late but he help a lot on the way i play
😎👍
Slash tu risa me alegra el Alma. Gracias por tanto 🎩♥
Slash sounds healty👏👏🤟🏻🤟🏻🇨🇦🇨🇦
Can't wait for the SMKC album
My respect to the man who made me want to play guitar (Mr. Saul Hudson)
It happened when I heard the first riff sweet child o mine, at that moment I knew that gibson les paul is one of the best guitars 🙌🙌
Adimiro demais o slash, sou muito fan dele desde os 15 anos, toco guitarra também por consequência disso e virei um apreciador das Les Paul.
Omg finally another one!!!!!!
I can 100% confirm Slash is more relax and comfortable doing long distance interview. Despite his status as a legend, Slash is never consider himself as one. I don't know whether he is truly humble or it's just his persona in front of camera. I hope it's the latter. I always enjoy listening to his interview.
Definitely getting the Victoria
This is awesome!
I want to specially appreciate you for being a big fan. thank for your nice comments on my post, it means a lot to me. I want you to send me a direct message via..
Nick ur such a sweet person and the questions u asking slash are exactly what I‘ve been thinking about all the time
Thanks for doin this interview and putting it out for us folks !!!
Stay safe
“They flex too much or just...Fall To Pieces”! Hahahahaha that was Hilarious!!!
Love Slash.
Slash forever !!!!
I used to wonder why his gold top signature was called “Victoria” , thanks to you guys now I know 🙂

Amazing question about the picks, it's true no one talks about picks
Slash is one of my Guitar influences.
His 2020/ 2021 signature guitars are insanely good- highly recommend!
saving for the holy Victoria! Which one do you have? Or which one did you play?
@@romanp.4319 I have the appetite burst they are all so beautiful its actually tricky to pick one, if you can, I highly recommend getting the MXR pedal from sweet water, that combined with the guitar is an insane combo! I have a few samples of the tone on my channel (running via a Silver jub)
@@LeadersandLunatics I have the MXR 10 band EQ and I guess it will be easy to chose for me, because I always wanted a Goldie!! And I have the 2555SL Marshall! Guess we could team up to play some nice tunes and tones!!!
@@romanp.4319 nice man- yeah you should put up some videos! I’m always down to collab with people. I have a bunch of videos coming out with other guitarists on UA-cam !
Absolutely, I have the appetite amber and it is incredible, quickly became my favorite guitar
He can do what a singer do but with the guitar, an awesome singer of course, I hope I can get close to that ability some day..
Looking good!

Let’s go!!!
Epiphone needs to make a lefty version of the "Victoria" Gold Top!!
Passed up on a chance to meet Slash back 6 or so years ago. I sold some signed Epiphone LP's promoting their upcoming tour through his Merch manager. I didn't think I had anything in common with the guy. But, watching this interview, I think we would've had a lot to talk about. That shelf behind him could be mine! And I've been playing an LP for 50 years! Oh well. Seems like a real, regular, nice guy!
Sounds like biggest regret of the century! What a shame 😧
@@goleylla LOL! No... I have a lot bigger regrets than meeting another guitarist
Super cool!!!!
During this Awesome interview i found myself wondering/wanting to know about all the stuff thats on the shelves behind Slash! It looks very interesting! Does anyone recognize anything? It looks like Michael Myers from Halloween in the middle on the shelf over his right shoulder.
It looks like all the universal monsters. I for sure see the creature from the black lagoon and I think over his shoulder is Dracula and Frankenstein as well as bride of Frankenstein
Is the "six" Les Paul’s including the gold top miscounting or is there a new color coming soon? As far as I know it’s only amber, tobacco, red, green, and gold-that’s five. Same five in the Epiphone image he shared on Instagram.
Hello it’s slash! I just came across your comments on my post here! thank you fan..!!
Hear me out, slash with a beard... Slash with a BEARD
LOL, guitar named after the thief "Victoria"!
