#SoundLike #CarlosSantana #AndertonsTV
I am a 1970's California guitar player raised on Santana and playing his music as long as well.
You did an out standing job recreating his tone and style with this rig and pedals.
So much so that I am going to investigate this equipment even now 3 years later.
You guys always represent the equipment and the artists in outstanding ways.
I tell everyone about your demos about equipment and ability to maximize the budget.
Considering that Carlos Santana uses a PRS with all Brazilian rosewood neck ($4200), and two Dumble overdrive reverbs ($50,000 +) and his original snakeskin boogie (priceless), I think you did a really job recreating his rig with £1500 .
+Gherkin Flout Tubanomeister that PRS is more than $4200 probably
Jonathan Dean I looked it up and thats what it said, but I was doubtful too, I think he is playing an even more custom one somehow
Gherkin Flout Tubanomeister The $4200 one is probably the one they sell to the public. Santana's is most likely a one off made specifically for him with even more highly custom woods and shit haha. Idk just speculation.
Jonathan Dean yeah he has 2 main ones, one with brazilian rosewood neck and one with indian, so he can take the indian one into europe without them taking it
And I still don't really think he has very good tone lol I guess it's a to each his own kinda thing. Totally love these sound likes though
Do one of Carlos when you bust the bank..
So expensive.
We'd be game for that!
Hell yeah! That's what I've been waiting for! Do it!
Yup, literally needs to bust the bank, the central bank to be exact 😅
sounds great, Carlos Santana was the 1st guy that I saw that made me realize playing guitar was just as cool as singing and could be as effective in getting a point across
You really nailed his tone guys great job
+Erik Ceman I scrolled down miles before finding someone commending for the tone setup. Thank you.
I could watch Rabea play guitar all day. The guy's a sick guitarist.
+Lee Hutchings same here, lots of incredibly talented virtuosos out there, but bea's always fun to watch playing
Fernando Samaniego Totally. And what I really like about Rabea's playing is that he's got all the chops, but he's also got tons of soul and has a great sense of melody. Not all players have these. I really wish I was as good a guitarist as Rabea.
Sound Like Prince - Without Busting The Bank!!!!!!!!
With OR without I just want to hear them play some Prince.
Prince had a lot of guitars that were designed just for him, plus he was a master of post-recording production. I think, it could be really hard to get his tone right.
Blinki18284 compared to other artists they’ve done, I think it would be a great video.
Nicholas Kopp all boss pedals and a fender USA Tele special
I can do that kind of video. I know his gear and was able to create some Prince sounds. Some of his gear is not expensive at all.
carlos santana by busting the bank please
Guys you're all clambering on what they should sound like next. How about giving some mad props for completely nailing the Santana sound. Dude that tone is just bang on point gentlemen. Damn.
sound like Alex Lifeson
Yes!
+Richard Hawkins I've been requesting this a lot too
Yes That would be the best one
Omg i was litterally just about to suggest that and then i saw your comment! Alex lifeson would be a good one
+Richard Hawkins Lerxst!
Sound like Jerry Cantrell of Alice in Chains!
Yes!! that would be fun to watch.
there is a cantrell signature by G&L. Sounds really good
+Cameron Sheppard Bout time someone requested this!
+Lalairu Andertons doesn't carry G&L though do they? I've never seen them demo any.
+angrypig24 doesn't matter, the signature JC guitar is above budget. They have a cheaper option I think.
One of the better episodes you guys have done, the tone is spot on.
You should have played europa
That's my favorite
"Sounds like... Sounds like without breaking the bank." We've faced a wall of DSL-40s at each other. We have them set on full volume with just a little bit of gain, with nothing connected to the input jacks on either. Then we put an 400 quid epiphone with a locking tremolo (that's a steal) inbetween them. Then we left a backpack with a tube streamer, a xotic ep booster, and boss chorus in a bin a petrol station. And then we went to the pub for a pint.
Always thought 90% of Santana's tone is in his fingers rather than his rig. Shows what a versatile player Rabea is
Roger Comer no, just shows that "the tone is in the fingers" is absolute bs. If I played Europa instead of Santana, with the exact same rig, it would be really, really hard to hear even the slightest difference.
atf kdi79 you’re dumb, give a guitar to a beginner then give the same thing to a professional and tell me if they are the same sound
@@adrieldiaz6402 thats a question of skill and proper technique though. Take a professional guitar and give him santanas gear and he will probably sound really close. Not discrediting santana or tone but thats just how it is.
Also I think spectre sound studios did a video about this a while ago and came to the same conclusion
@@HimTortons - Given that Santana sounds like Santana whatever gears he's using and yet no one really sounds like him, I do rather doubt that. Santana's sound is what's in his head. Once he's played it clever people can almost duplicate it, but until he's played it.... Honestly, can you, can anyone, really 'see' what it is he's hearing as he continuously twiddles that volume knob?
Been playing for close to 20 years. It's 75 percent fingers. Trust
Excellent Chops Rabea, and the tones are really good man!
PLEASE. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD. DO MATTHEW BELLAMY OF MUSE.
+Fender maine i'm agree but i think they can't do it because no have mansons guitar
+akatsuki11 Akatsuki Well thats the challenge aint it, an actual manson would be too expensive anyway though
It would be awesome! they dont need manson do that either
I can't like this enough. The amount of times i've seen it requested! We want Bellamy!!!
YEAAH WE WANT BELLAMY !!!
So many negative people , nice and informative video . I'll never gig, but it's good to have someone to show you what might work for you. Thanks Guys !!!
Sound like Kevin Parker (Tame Impala)
Please
Yeah!
+Bruno Leal Nah.
No
+Bruno Leal No.
Sound like Frank Zappa. :)
More like Franz Kappa amirite
I was wondering how you guys were going to 'get around' the high price of Mesa amp gear. Well done. Sounded very much like Carlos. If you wanted to be pedantic about nailing the sound Rabea could have used a thicker pick and gone lighter in strings, but gee, for the price you paid for that rig, the soundalike is impressively close.
Those are 6V6's in the 15 watt, the 40 watt has the 6L6's...but I like the 6V6's, they seem to have a smokey overtone to them and they also have the early breakup. They don't produce a lot of power but in 5-15 watt applications they sound awesome. Good job, I might buy a PRS Santana and try it out...thank you for the video, keep it up m/
Sounds like :-
1)Def Leppard
2)Scorpions
3)Buckethead
4)Metallica
5)Airbourne
Scorpions
I beg beg beg you guys!!!! Sound like Alex Lifeson(RUSH) or Ritchie Blackmore(Deep Purple)
Sound Like Tame Impala
Yes
+Hoaxla No.
No
+Hoaxla YEEEEES
+Hoaxla thats gonna be hard as fuck
i remember gigging smooth when i was around 17/18. so much fun
sound like me
David Hasselhoff that’s impossible.
Don't you mean hoffpossible?
Please do Tony Iommi of black sabbath or jimi hendrix?
I might be getting a limited edition SG with Tony's autograph and if they do that I will be a very lucky and happy Person :)
+Thomas Scheltens I think that Tony's using a relatively simple rig, almost all of his guitars pack humbuckers because he uses a great deal of distortion
Ooh well, I would be really interested in the old sabbath sound, first two albums mainly, cause it had a kind of mix between english classic rock and early heavy metal, but I mainly think its kinda weird that we haven't seen a hendrix rig yet?? I mean comon...
Well, when you put it like that I can't disagree with you.
keep up the good work guys, I really enjoy this series. Do sounds like Gary Moore please
Sound like The Edge. It's going to have to be a cheap guitar because there are going to have to be a lot of pedals. Sound like Matt Bellamy could be interesting too.
+Richard Harrold "the edge" is literally the douchiest name anyone could ever decide to call themselves and every time I hear it I cringe.
Telebasterd
He didn't choose the nickname, it was applied by friends of his when they were teenagers.
musta been one of those nicknames people hate but it sticks anyway
Telebasterd
I think it was a jibe at his exceptionally prominent cheekbones.
Love you guys.Great respected shop ,great playing,always learn something musical from just watching the shows..keep on doin your thang!!
What about Sounds Like Matt Bellamy - that could be tricky for 1500 quid. Another good one would be Sounds like Kim Thyall or maybe even Jerry Cantrell. Cheers guys.
for matt bellamy you just need a tele shape guitar with hbuckers or the cort sig
for pedals maybe a big muff or a fuzz factory, phase 90, and a distortion pedal
for the amp you could go with the dsl40 lol
that's pretty much it tho if you had a bigger budget you could get bareknuckles
i think i went PAST 1500 quid so idk
We Truly Need a Sounds Like "Dorje" Video!
With Rabea and Matt but not Rob....LOL
Lovin' this series so much!
Sound like Alice in Chains or Smashing Pumpkins
Nailed it, love the mix of the TS and Flux Drive!
As muchs as I love the sound with the PRS (current and hard to replicate) he recorded his greatests hits (before Supernatural) with an SG. That should have been addressed IMO.
Actually Santana used to play a Gibson SG in his early career. In the '70s he played a Yamaha sg 2000, and from 1980 or even earlier passed to play exclusively PRS. Well before releasing Supernatural.
Great episode guys, please do a Sound like Stevie Ray Vaughan.
Sound like Ritchie Blackmore!
+Stellarium Celestia Yes please!
+Stellarium Celestia That would be Awsum!
That sounds glorious. Just confirms why I love the 808. That flux drive sounds great too!!
Sound like Billy Gibbons!
Agree on that one!
Billy gibbons for sure!
Oh my god Evil Ways sounds SOO much like the recorded version. Great Job!
sounds like jimi hendrix pls
Thanks! Now "Evil ways" will be stuck in my head forever!
Sound like Richie Sambora (or Bon Jovi), Metallica, Status Quo, Golden Earring, Aerosmith, Europe and Queen
I've used the Tweaker 15 combo with an SE Santana for a few years now. Great instruments that cover a broad range of styles/tones. Nice to see you guys playing some of my gear!
How to sound like Robben ford would be rather fun to watch.
Live I think he uses a Seymour Duncan Palladium, you’ve got the tele or the vintage epiphone, that’s all I really remember
Excellent job - inspired my purchases. Thanks!
Sounds like Deftones, please.
That's a great idea :)
ESP 7 String, Atomic Amplifire and sorted
Matt and Rabea!!
Sound Like: Van Halen ---> I've suggested this in multiple vids, and now there are quite a few people asking for it in this comment section, you don't have to scroll down very far.
could you guys do Korn? I would like to see what you guys would end up doing for those guys
I love those 24.5 inch scale PRS SE Santana models.
Deff my fav SE model on the market today.
Just needed a compressor. Good job guys. Sound like Eddie Van Halen!
+Benjamin Smith I thought a compressor would have added more than the flux, to be honest.
@@GavinMorris1 which one specifically?
Yep. Did a pretty good job for sure. Would be interesting in the vids to hear the 'sound on a budget' A/B'd with the expensive stuff that the artists actually used so ppl can hear if they are getting much more for all the extra dosh, or can be content.
METALLICA REMAKE!!!
When Santana wrote those songs PRS guitars did not exist, but his songs still sounded great even with P90 pickups.
sound like Hendrix next, pleaassseeee
Sound Like Lil' Wayne - Without Busting The Bank would have been a fantastic April Fool's joke lol
SOUND LIKE JOHNNY MARR
I think you guys did a great job. Awesome video !
Sound like Steve Vai!
Re & Matt do a great job on the budget, coo- dhoozs to u lads # keepupthegreatwork , andertons number 1 UK
Carlos used a Gibson SG cherry at Woodstock and most venues of the era. His sound was unique to him at the time. I like that better than the PRS he now uses, more raw and gritty.
and don't forget the Yamaha SG2000 phase. i've got one (a recent model, to be fair) and although it was sort of meant to be a Les Paul-ish guitar in construction...mahogany neck, body and maple cap, the pickups are definitely a bit brighter than your average Gibson 'buckers, and especially with the child taps. So i guess the SE with HBs is probably a reasonable substitute, too.
Tim Beaton
I got an original SG 2000 and it sounds amazing
Actually, yeah, to me his sustain sounds sort of fake now.
Carlos peaked back in the SG days. Santana's Greatest Hits album was extraordinary. He's lost his mojo as of late... he's just playing notes - lots of them, very fast, but just playing notes.
Gold star to you, his best playing and sound, by a country mile AINEC, was during the SG2000 days.
This surprises me. When I was a little grub I was a bit obsessive about finding "the secrets" and while I liked Hendrix, Page and especially McLaughlin, my Tone Gods were Duane Allman and Carlos Santana. And without internet, with the only magazine of any worth being Guitar Player and there being a bit of secretiveness, it was hard to find the secrets. However, the one common factor was using very clean, high-power capacity SPEAKERS and a cranked power amp. Allman used a no-master-volume 50 watt Marshall into Altec-Lansing speakers, Santana used a silverface Twin Reverb into JBL's, sometimes Altec-Lansings. (The silverface are cleaner than blackface) He MAY have had a a Mesa-Boogie or some sort of rewired Fender by _Santana III_ or _Caravanserai_, but the "signature tone of his was set by a silverface Twin Reverb and JBL's - maybe coincidentally, his friend Jerry Garcia used the same thing.
I wouldn't bother writing anything, but this guy doesn't sound much like Santana at all - it's a tone that comes from settings and components, not just from buying stuff that say "Santana" on it. If there's a "secret" it's dead-clean, high-power "PA" speakers.
Do a sound like Matt Bellamy (Muse)
I think we could really classify Santana's sound into 3 phases of his musical career.
The first could be the equipment he used during his Woodstock-Abraxas era.
The second one I feel could be during his time when he released the album "amigos" since there he started using different equipment during that album and the concerts he gave for that album.
And we could divide the third in 2: the concerts he gave during the 80's (we can also mention when he promoted his album blues for Salvador).
and finally the supernatural guitar sound (maybe the most popular sound of his career). Actually, the sound and equipment that Santana used throughout his musical career until today is so varied that it makes him unique.
I love the boogie sound & am looking into the flux drive vs flux 5- if I already had a graphic eq pedal, would there be a point in getting the flux 5 (the one w the eq) or should I just get the flux drive? Would a flux 5 & graphic eq pedal sound different than the upgraded/more expensive MB flux drive with the built-in eq?
Sound like Electric Wizard? Kyuss?
Sound like Alex Lifeson of Rush
Best one yet guys, really enjoyed the playing !
The tones achieved were pretty much on the money and all for a relatively modest budget.
The late great Stuart Adamson of BIg Country would be interesting challenge as he had a very defined "bagpipe" sound and used primarily Mesa amps in his rig .
Keep up the good work guys ,i always look forward to the "Sound like " series especially the interesting gear choice and stunning playing technique.
yeah, Every decent guitarist wants bagpipes comin' outta his rig. Can't wait to miss that one !
Sound like prince!
I was a poor college student when I took out a bank loan and bought a PRS ce 24 maple neck bolt on guitar and a Mesa boogie Rocket 44 combo amp with a 12 inch speaker and I came close to achieving Carlos Santana's tone and I was playing everything out of the Supernatural guitar tab book and some of my favorites were "Maria Maria", "El Farol", " Smooth" " Light of my life"that was back in 1998 man I miss those days !!!
Sounds like Sonic Youth?
Best sound like video by far. Thanks for posting!
Sound like Brad Whitford and Joe Perry of Aerosmith
Great video as always guys. Love the Sounds Like series. Keep up the good work.
SOUND LIKE MATT BELLAMY OF MUSE !!
I watched him last Sunday at the o2 arena. He has a fairly simple rig. His guitar does most of it with the built in fuzz factory
+Lenny Henry it's always going to be subjective and depends very much on the album. during the Showbiz/Origin of Symmetry era, his pedal board included a digitech whammy, dl4, V-Synth, dod Equalizer, Zvex Fuzz Factory, micro synth. I watched a tribute band last month who did a fantastic job with just a zoom multi effects unit and a whammy pedal
Thats a great sounding, versatile rig for the money. One of the best sound likes.
Sound like Lemmy without busting open your amp and rewiring it like he did?
Some serious Santana lead playing there by Bea, nice one mate you did a great job on this one ;)
Sound like Billy Gibbons please!!!
The 15-watt Egnater Tweaker uses 6V6 power tubes, although you could swap in 6L6's (or EL34's, or KT66's, or 6550's, or any other octal tube). The 40-watt version comes with 6L6's.
Sound like billie joe armstrong. 90s and 2000s. (Preferably 90s)
Nobody wants that...thats literally a Gibson Junior plugged into a Marshall...done
Get a piece of crap guitar, plug it into some thin distorted amp, and you're there
By the way, at Woodstock Santana used an early Big Muff but it`s reckoned that he has used an Ibanez Tube Screamer frequently over the years. Currently his only pedal used live is a Dunlop 535Q wah with a TC Electronic D-Two rack mount delay.
Sound like The Clash
Kevin Kibble +Andertons Music Co make it happen pls
Beautiful tones guys -- Really well done!
Sound like Johnny Marr!
+Lewis Wooding We all know Rabea must be busy nailing those Johnny Marr riffs so when's the 'Sound like...' going to hit UA-cam?
I think the ringer here is that Bea has an amazing touch with vibrato, and just emulates guitarist really well.....I'd love to see a Brian May or Richie Blackmore video...
Sound Like Randy Rhoads
love theses how to sound like_______ keep them up!!
will do a how to sound like Prince one??
Still waiting for Randy Rhoads
Yes! And Zakk Wylde :D
+Gruenegiraffe And EVH (hopefully)
+Marcus Aldred Yes. And Steve Vai.
+Gruenegiraffe I know for sure that they'll do Steve Vai
they did it and before you start going nuts screaming "V V" there wasn't any so they went with an Epi les paul custom
and without going around the bush they got that one, you know... that one, the one they said not to do anymore but they lied about it! the DSL40C
and for FX they got MXR Distortion +, Micro Chorus cos there was no Stereo chorus, Micro Flanger cos they didn't have the right Flanger in either, Boss GE7 cos there was no MXR 10 Band EQ's and finally a Dunlop Wah
Just makes me wanna listen to more Santana
Sounds like Darude - Sandstorm
Gtfo
+Rutger Verboom u WIN
Ironically there's a channel dedicated to that Edm genre . You can find a video on Music botique
That's all synthesizer based music I don't think an actual guitar was used in that song.
Holy smokes! That was an incredible job replicating the Santana sound. ❤❤❤
Sound like the Deftones.
This task must be accomplished.
Sound like Black Sabbath
One of the best you've done I think guys. Got the sound & came in well under budget, job's a good 'un!
sounds like johnny marr please!
Pretty much spot on...
Can you do Sounds like The Reverend Billy Gibbons guys
Not sure if this has been mentioned but a forty foot cable is really important to Carlos' tone you get the extra capacitance from the cable which cause a high end roll off which is different than the tone control on the guitar will do
