Warren has probably no idea how much he's missed and how influential his playing is to this day.
He was one of my heroes growing up, along with Eddie, George and a couple of others. You are 100% correct....He has been very influential and is sorely missed.
His solo in Giving Yourself Away is 🔥
RATT really started rolling in 84 when I was 16 in highschool still one of my favorite bands of all time, Warren is a guitar god absolute LEGEND, best guitarist of that era in my humble opinion. He needs to get back out there it's in his blood, and his fans love him. WD LEGEND.............
He's still alive and recording.
💯
I just loved this guy. He stood out from most of the guitarists back then & he looked the part without making a fool out of himself.
Lay it Down is the best riff ever!
🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Truth, right there.
As a guitar player, probably my favorite riff ever🤘
Unchained: *hold my beer*
Warren is definitely my
Favorite guitarist of that
Era. George Lynch is
Right up there too…
Well, George and Warren play the same way.
@@nicolasarbogast2739Warren, George and Jake E Lee was pals in those days
Jake E Lee
Warren definitely knows a thing or two about tone
One of my favs!! 💚🎸
That LAY IT DOWN tone, holy shit!
His tone was the best of the generation that followed Eddie.
This dude is/was a MASTER at what I call riff rock. Amazing riffs with RATT. One after another. Absolutely amazing 🎉🤘🎸🤘
Warren's Round and Round solo is one of my favorites! 🎸🔥🤘🏼
The outro is so fluid and tasty.
Such an iconic sound, guitarist and the guitar! ♥️🤘
My first concert was RATT out of the cellar. I love Warren, he is fantastic!
Same here.
Ratt invasion of your privacy is a timeless masterpiece...on that record Warren really shone.
He shone. Past tense.
Hopefully, Warren Will Do Something Soon! The Fans Have Been Waiting!! 🙏🎸⭐️
The riffs laid down by this man are legendary....youre in love....im insane..lay it down.....wanted man....hes a very underrated guitar god
My schoolmates and I listened to Ratt on cassette tapes and vinyl incessantly in the 80s. We positively worshipped Warren's playing. Watching you play 40 years later, I see what it was that made your playing so special, though I don't know if I have the words to describe it. It's got tons of top end, but also a "wideness" or physical substance with a nice decay. And what a cool story about Seymour Duncan. I think there are a lot of stories like this, where Seymour gives an artist his full attention and creates an amazing custom pickup. Seymour Duncan is the Rembrandt of pickups and you are an 80s rock icon. Your playing is an important part of the soundtrack of my life.
Me too man. We wore those tapes out. 🇺🇸👍
Was blessed to see Warren play a few times back in the day. Always a inspiration. Great to see you again.
So happy to see him still relevant, great guitar player!
Great to hear you WDM...always liked your lixx...you and Lee and Lynch were my trifecta for So Cal hard rock!
I used to go to Guitar Trader all of the time back in the 80's. I saw young Warren there. As well, saw Rough Cutt do a small gig there with Amir Derakh on his Charvel purple star guitar. It was the hot spot guitar shop in San Diego. It's gone now but I have a lot of cool memories of that place. I was told Robbin Crosby worked there for a while after Ratt.
Lucky! I've always loved Rough Cutt. This band deserved a larger following.
@@Viper_555 We like it loud!
@@rugxulo No doubt!! Great song! Great album!
Man, I wish Warren would join back up with Stephen to provide us diehard Ratt fans with a taste and memory of just how incredibly polished and powerful their music was back in the day.
im sure he’s happier not dealing with drama, bullshit, and lawsuits
Stephen’s voice ain’t what it once was
There may be lack of communication but never lack of tone.....
One of my favorite guitar players
Great guitarist who knows his craft
It's great to hear Warren has worked with you guys to create such a hot guitar pickup. That tone is one of the best for metal and hard rock ever.
One of my favourite riff monsters!
I grew up listening to Warren with Ratt an when I seen that Snake guitar I wanted me so bad an that I’m 60 I have one and I love it thanks Seymour Duncan An Warren For the tone an the Music
What an awesome player with such a unique attack on the fretboard.
Right on. Now get that solo album out man! We need more music from ya!
I have the RTM in my HSS partscaster build and I love it. RTM/little JB/little 59. The RTM is an awesome pickup, it is truly great at everything. Imagine a more refined JB, didn't think that was possible.
I shunned the Alnico 2 magnet for years assuming it was too weak for metal... I've used the JB since the 80's and was an Alnico 5 purist. But my new SBS MS260 guitar came with Alnico 2 Custom Custom copies... and I loved them. (Check out the 40 second snippet of them on my page). Can't wait to try an RTM.
Legend
Brett Warnelis here. I'm the 55 y.o. bassist in Florida who wanted to form a new blues rock band with Warren. Talked to Beau Hill (Ratt producer) 10 years ago. Could never get in touch w Warren. Wasted Opportunity him not opening up & doing something. Yes Lay It Down the best riff ever I agree. His solo outro on Wanted Man is just mind blowing
So, something is in the works, and that is good to hear.
Warren is an amazing guitarist. He always seemed like the guy who was the passive one in the group and let his guitar do the talking, not his ego like many have
Love Warrens Playing and Tone. I have this pickup in my Charvel Warren Di Martini and it sounds amazing. I even love the quarter pound in the neck Thanks for sharing.
I love the JB and the RTM pick ups too.🥰🤘 I'm happy to see Warren DeMartini playing guitar, he's tone is always awesome.
One of my guitar heroes. Love his tone and artistry. He’s an amazing player.
One Of Greats Of All Time #WarrenDeMartini
Finally a new video of him after 15 years
Lol there was a “new” video of him that came out 6 yrs ago when he did the music zoo thing with andy aledort not too mention tons of live footage between that time
I can't believe they made him face the sun during the interview. Ratt was so huge to me back in gigh school. One of the 80's top bands in my book.
Absolutely Legend! ❤
Warren Demartini is a helluva good guitar player. Very underrated.🎸👍
Underrated by whom? He's not underrated at all. He's a legend.
Warren is..next to Eddie Van Halen (R.I.P. King Edward) and George Lynch..Eddie is my #1 and George is my #2 but MAYBE Warren and George are tied really close in my mind. I LOVE Warren's playing and have since I first heard Ratt in '84. His tone, his whole everything, love the guy. Let's give a R.I.P. to his former guitar partner in crime, Robbin 'King' Crosby who could also play. And I LOVE Seymour Duncan pickups, great stuff.
First time I saw Warren rip out the solos, I was completely blown away. Ratt opened for Ozzy is San Diego (likely the Bark at the Moon tour). We hadn't heard of Ratt before. The next day my friends and I hit the record store and bought Out of the Cellar. It was such a great time. The music was SO great.
Love to ratt n roll! Love Warren! God bless. Jesus saves!
Kept waiting for a Ratt riff... still waiting .... But man he looks great!!!!
That looks and sounds amazing. Warren's playing is so underrated 👌👌
Warren is awesome, love his playing and style. Would love some solo work from him. I’ll be making a build in the new year, think the RTM will be a good fit.
Yeah, it's a great pickup. Absolutely stellar for Rock, Hard Rock, and even metal
I love the sound too, also on Way Cool Junior.
I was blessed enough to get a photo of myself with the original Samurai Charvel and Warren on the 2007 Tour with Poison....Such a humble cool 😎 dude
He's back!!!
back for more....! 😀
SOLD. Love Warren and love the hot bright sound for my style of playing. Putting in a Fender American Pro modded HH Strat
Warren said it was a new pickup... but is this different than the RTM that has been in his signature Charvels for years? I read somewhere that they basically took a JB and replaced the Alnico 5 mags with Alnico 2 mags (someone claims to have heard that from MJ), but I'm sure there is more to it (e.g., the windings). Whatever they did, I absolutely love mine. I've had his Charvel USA Signature Snake guitar for several years, and it's just a smokin' axe.
This RTM has the same specs as the one in the Charvel, but it's not made in the Custom Shop or signed. Those are the only differences. Hope that helps!
So happy to see a new video with Warren! 😊 Man, that dude just oozes cool 👍
You have always been a big inspiration to me. Can’t wait to get your guitars!
Hail to shredmaster WDM. As a kid playing guitar i worshipped king Edward, but I analyzed Every solo from Out of the Cellar and simply became a convert. Such a killer sound and style. 🤘
I met him after a show about 20 some odd years ago. He came off stage and then hung out at the bar for an hour or so. We talked for a few minutes. I remember him being really down to earth and a nice guy. He's such a tremendous guitar player and song writer.
I've seen him in concert with Ratt many times going back to the 80s. Always great with a terrific tone that really cuts through the mix. Not only one of the better players from the classic metal era, but one of the best rock guitarists in the world today. He's got style for miles.
Great to see Warren enthusiastic about playing and tone. Haven't seen him active in many years. A true legend, right up there with Lynch, Jake E. Lee, and EVH.
Wow, I was in the 10th grade when I bought the “ There & back “ album !
Great seeing/hearing Warren.
Its been like decades since i saw this guy update
Warren de mis guitarristas preferidos, un genio, infravalorado como John Sykes y Jake e Lee.
Wow.! What a thick sound! 😯
Man this is exciting to see! I love Warren's tone and play-style, one of the best ever, great to see him talking about this approach/jamming a bit as well as some new material coming up...very awesome! Rock on man, keep playing 🤘
Warren D continues to inspire ❤
Great to see you again, Warren! 😁👍🏼
Warren is the reason I started playing guitar!
Absolute classic. I wish he would get out and play with somebody.
He's got the juice in his sound. Finger powered juice. This dude could make any piece of shit guitar sound good. It's all in his hands. JUICE!!!
Way Cool Warren!!!👌 😃🤙 ❤🔥🎸🎶Thank you!
Sounds killer ❤
Criminally underrated
Wow! Sounds amazing!
Just got one a little while ago. killer pickup.
Superb editing on this video !
Thanks a ton!
Behold the coooolest Guitar Player of the 80's ! Amen
Its a great pickup.Im a Emg guy and this keeps up.
Fuckin legend! Criminaly underated!
Incredible guitarist
I used to hang out at Guitar Trader too. Met Robin Crosby there.
my first listening to Demartini is the intro to the Detonator mc tape back in the early 90s! his tone is soo darn nice!
A smashing guitar player. Gorgeous phrasing.Tonally and stylistically my fave alongside George.
He mentions the Seymour Duncan JB pickup. To me, it's the best pickup made and has no equal. I don't care if you're into Bluegrass, Blues, Jazz, Dethcore, classic rock or any other genre, you can always find your voice with that pickup. Some clever wiring options can scramble that up even more. A coil split circuit that will drop one row of magnets, in-phase/out of phase switching, in/out of parallel, combining it with another pickup...endless tones and sounds that are studio quality. Sure, I own many other pickups, but if I want a known starting point, the JB is it. And when trying out other pickups, the JB is the gold standard to which I compare to
Anyone notice that he is using a narrower nut on that neck? String spacing on both E strings are well inside the edge of the neck. Pretty cool idea!
Warren Rules, thats for sure! When I was in High School back in the 1980s, I saw Warren and George Lynch using Duncans for pups... I said "That's the pickup for me!" So, I dropped a Seymour Duncan Distortion humbucker in my guitar, and I was set! Such great tone!
My absolute favorite guitarist!
Very cool video. Would love to see more videos of Warren or a new band! Such an organic player.
Love your playing love your tone
Saw you play many many times
One of my heros❤
Sounds great.
Love it! Ive played NOTHING but jb seymours for everything, stacked singles, humbuckers ! Lots of gigs , would be interested in these but still a jb fan . Peace
Thank you!
That’s the man right there
Not a Duncan guy but the JB is definitely "The Horizon". I compare everything to it as a baseline, even tho I don't ever use these pickups. Cannot deny its place among the pickup pantheon.
Great guitar player and .fellow Italian can't go wrong with that.
I have a seymour duncan distortion in the neck position of my Guild Warrior. I like it. I have a Bill Lawrence L-500XL in the bridge position. I like the warmer tone and sustain from it. Been using that pickup since '85. I think the guy from Pantera used one as well.
Sweet!!!
Love Warren's playing, i grew up with Ratt and other bands.
My Hero. With Robbin the king.
The JB is still one of my fav's to this day. I'd like to get my hands on one of the new Charvels with Warren's pups. Love that tone 🤘
That pup sounds amazing, he's on the path to EVH 2.0
Such a good player.
I put a Roughcast Alnico II in my JB-J from a old USA Kramer Baretta years ago and never looked back.
That p'u always reminded me of the tone i heard Warren get on "The Rock Palace" show i had on VHS tape.
Real liquid like on singles notes with tons of sustain and drive. Curious to how this RTM would sound compared?
