    Joe Bonamassa! I'd love to chat with you about auctions, collectable guitars, and of course Jeff Beck! Hit me up instagram.com/officialfstoppers/
    Okay Fstoppers readers, I know this video has very little to do with the normal photography reviews, tips, business, and educational content we put out on this channel but this was an extremely important personal experience for me. I hope you enjoy the ride and appreciate one of my side passions outside the world of content creation.
    If you are new to Jeff Beck's music, here is a simplified guide on where I suggest you start
    Blow By Blow - 1975, jazz/rock fusion, some would say Jeff's most important work of all time. 🎵open.spotify.com/album/6fhTDVBs7qeoP3254hMu6u
    You Had It Coming - 2001, rock/techno, this is probably my favorite album by Jeff. Try to imagine Eric Clapton or Jimmy Page playing anything like this in their 60s!
    🎵open.spotify.com/album/2VKdeHabc3wTmiQBd8yGft
    Loud Hailer - 2016, normal band setting with Rosie Bones singing, "Pull It" might be one of my favorite short compositions by Jeff and Scared for the Children is a masterpiece. I wish Jeff did more albums like this honestly.
    🎵open.spotify.com/album/71N67dfMIkvyikV9ygSOuF
    Live at Ronnie Scotts - one of the greatest live concerts every recorded. What else can I say?

    I think the thing about Jeff's passing that got to me, and you and a lot of other people, is that Jeff was still so active and creative, and vibrant, and we just kind of all forgot he was 80.

      I was shocked too about his passing, but my uncle passed away abruptly in May, seventy-four years old and super healthy and vibrant after complications from a hip replacement, so nothing surprises me.

    Well that was terrific viewing Patrick. I’m so glad you went and you did this. You were the perfect person to go and film and yes, we have this now and it could be the only recording of a good part of his collection before they all go their separate ways. It is a major thing to happen and should be recorded as you have done. Thank you.

      @phaskellhall 20 годин тому

      Yeah there are so many guitarists I respect, and Jeff wasn't even the one who inspired me the most as a teenager. But when it's all said and done, he was the best and not once did he release anything that wasn't A+ and mind blowing. Even his least favorite album, Flash, still pushed the boundaries that few could ever cross themselves. My favorite guitar players of all time have bad records, poor choice in collaborations, and degrade in their playing over the decades....but not Jeff, he stands alone. -Patrick

    Incredible but I have mixed feelings. It brings back how sad it is that JB is no longer with us. Also, it’s sad that this incredible collection of historic instruments is going to be spread out amongst the mega wealthy. If I could choose one, just to hold, it would be the Tele Gib. Such an iconic instrument that is quintessentially Jeff’s, with a back story to match.

  • @alz4918

    So how was the action on his guitars you tried? How about the strings? How were the frets? The vibrato bars?

    • @FStoppers
      @FStoppers  7 годин тому

      Despite everything I’ve read over the years, Jeff’s necks on his Strats were all pretty thin like a normal worn in neck, the action was pretty low, and the Trem was set exactly like I have mine…floating to where the G can pull up a minor 3rd. Nothing crazy.
      The reverse headstock guitar did have a noticeable thicker neck yet somehow the lower strings didn’t buzz in the Wilkinson split nut which makes me believe the break angle on that headstock is slightly more of an angle. They did tell me he used thicker bass strings on that guitar to help with it. Keep in mind, Jeff has at least 3 of these reverse headstock guitars and the one I played was the one with no string trees added to the headstock which was the one I’m most curious about. I’ve gone deep down that guitar rabbit hole because I’ve made my own replica of it and the split Wilkinson nut has given me trouble on my low strings. I actually had to go back to a normal version two Wilkinson nut which bums me out a little. The alternative is to add the string trees which I prefer not to do.
      But yeah, all things considered, all the guitars seemed pretty standard. The tele gib had some different frets that Seymour Duncan put on them but I can’t recall it being too strange. The curator told me Jeff had never had any of his guitars refretted which seems kind of shocking but who knows if that is 100% true. -P

    Please turn off the AI overdubs and AI translation of the title! That sounds terrible! I'm seriously thinking about canceling the subscription, that's how awful this AI crap is! It's far too inconvenient for me to switch back to the original language every time.
