    This is great! Would've loved hearing some P90s in there, though I know they can do anything just as well :)

    You are both such great players! Thanks guys for the tones. There are so many good tones out there. For that blues rock thing, being a bit of a Rory Gallagher fan, I would love to hear some strat through a treble booster and an AC30! He also played a tele, for slide playing I think.

    Gents, you dont even know, how happy you made me with this vid. For one, the tones there are beautifull, but then, its so nice to see someone else use similar approach to tone and that you can have Lenny and Pride and joy tones with same settings, just be pick attack dynamics.
    Id say, I miss fuzz there for some of the "saxophone type sound" leads, but all good, all good. And Guill today on fire (not like Kris was behind, but even Im 335 guy for Blues, Guill made me smile a lot today).

      Hey, thanks a lot! I'd love to make an episode on country but to be honest, we're probably not the best players for that job. Haha! Literally every single guitar player in Nashville would be better at nailing that tone (and especially the playing). I'd still love to give it a go, since I really love the style. Thanks for the suggestion! //Kris

    Best blues tone is in your fingers. You gentlemen play very well. Blues is about feel. Music is about emotions. Gear is secondary.

    • @ThomannsGuitarsBasses
      @ThomannsGuitarsBasses  2 роки тому +1

      First of all, thank you! I agree with what you're saying about blues tones. It's pretty much the only style where you can get away with a weird and nasty tone. If you know how to express yourself with a beaten' up old guitar and amp, you can sound great with those too. Which makes blues the opposite of let's say modern metal. For metal you really need a certain kind of gear to have a tone we guitar players consider as a "good enough tone". So interesting, isn't it? Cheers //Kris

    • @graycolors2879
      @graycolors2879 2 роки тому

      @@ThomannsGuitarsBasses I totally agree, that good metal sound is "huge" and aggressive. You rather don't want to use strat or some 20W combo with maxed gain. I was raised on grounge and metal and listening to it as a young lad, it allowed me to express my "anger". With blues often slow, with simple drums, bass walking here and there, sometimes piano kicking in, guitar player gets so much space to express himself. And in the end audience wants emotions, audience even unconsciously wants to feel how band members feel. I really liked your blues intro :-) Cheers, Tom.

    Kris,
    Love the 335 with Bigsby. I have similar with Epiphone Sheraton pro 2 with no bigsby but the sound from your Tele just hits the spot. Gotta love the construction cone sticker between tone and volume knobs lol. Great video as always. Terrific sound and playability guys!

    • @ThomannsGuitarsBasses
      @ThomannsGuitarsBasses  2 роки тому

    Excellent episode. Good information . For the future, I prefer Distortion pedals vs. Fuzz pedals, Mud Honey II, DS-1, Suhr Riot, MXR Distortions (there are several). Not so square and gated. If you get into a Fuzz episode, I'd really like if you include one or more of the pedals mentioned in comparison.

    • @ThomannsGuitarsBasses
      @ThomannsGuitarsBasses  2 роки тому

      Hey Cem, both of those are super hard to get right. For the 50's tone you need a very old guitar to even get in the ballpark. And the 70's dirty tones... Do you mean like a fizzy, nasty blues tone? If yes, that's only really doable with a ridiculously loud amp that's about to explode. Haha! Not very practice and gigging friendly approach unfortunately.😅

      Hey, we didn't want to use effects that aren't really associated with the style. We also cranked the amps enough to have the tube compression happening and as for the EQ: it's always a super nice tool to have. We simply didn't want to change the natural tone of the guitars / amps, so we didn't need one this time. Cheers //Kris
