I remember him saying he couldn't play with a thumb-pick - now he can. I have a bog-standard tele with Barden pickups and it sounds very similar to this. I never achieved the tone he got from playing 'The Beak' on Equinox back in 1987.
Bought one of these at the weekend as I was looking for something to replace 3 guitars. Absolutely amazing guitar. The combination of tones from a single guitar is mind blowing. The Seymour Duncans combined with wiring on this guitar are amazing. My poor €1,500 telecaster is relegated to the corner.
I'm still in trouble understanding what fretking guitars he actually plays on stage... JD or JDD (both have "JD" on headstock...) :) . theo one in this video seeam a JDD, not a JD... I'm getting mad :D

So much of what he talks about went into his Hellecaster signature with Fender
Very interesting. Never seen a pickup with a cap in the windings. Think I'll look a bit harder and give that bending after the nut a go.
I shook Jezzer's hand in NY once. The man had one of the firmest handshakes ever I've eperienced.

What Duncan's worked for you? I tried sd broadcaster with his harness
@@Grindstaff09 Hi, it was the stock Seymour Duncan and harness that it came with. I still have it but i prefer using my Brent Mason tele now
John McLaughlin also worked at Selmer London - a few years before Jerry.
And Paul Kossoff
wow that vox amp really makes a nice tone
Very good!
That guitar sounds outstanding ,, super crisp but not brash
why is there so much buzz on the lower strings? is he picking really hard?
There is some buzzing there, combined with amp overdrive. He actually doesn't play hard enough most of the time to hear that buzzing.

free guitar with no strings attached, ironic.
More “ tone wood” talk
Wood matters. Don’t be a Jim
