In this video, our good friend Charlie Sexton took some time out of his European tour schedule with Bob Dylan to sit and chat about his relationship with Collings and his current SoCo Deluxe model.
Charlie reflects on how he first met Bill Collings via custom and modified cars. By the time they got to talking electric guitars, he was already gravitating towards the SoCo Deluxe.
As he explains in the video, Charlie has three SoCo models. This one has Doghair back, sides and neck and a solid black top. It features in over 50 per cent of the current Bob Dylan live show alongside some of his other classic and vintage guitars. ThroBak pickups and 10-52-gauge strings complete the picture.
Big thanks to Charlie for taking time to share his thoughts and insights!
For those of you who’d like to know, he’s plugged into Two-Rock Studio Pro 35 and Hamstead Artist 20 amps for the playing parts, using a Klon Centaur, Xotic EP Boost and Analogman ARDX 20 delay in various sections. Charlie’s own gear was on stage with Bob Dylan of course!

Charlie is the whole package. I could listen to him all day long...❤❤❤ My bro (also a guitarist) got onto Charlie back in the 80s and has been a big big fan ever since. We are Aussies. On my bucket list to see Charlie live in concert one day. Hey Charlie..Jimmy Barnes says hi..! 😎✌🇦🇺🐨

Favourite guitarist😊 His playing in Bob Dylan's band is fantastic! Subtle, complicated, inventive and complimentary to the great songs. Really cool to hear him speak about his guitar. Thanks😃

This has to be one of the BEST dual humbucker guitars I have heard!... Totally want now!

@CollingsGuitars 4 года назад

Thank you sir. Much appreciated!

Fantastic sounding and looking guitar. 🎸🔥

@steveb9325 3 месяца назад

Now that's a proper demo from a pro taking his time.

@mikeaustin4138 7 лет назад

Great tone! Much more revealing than too many of the other Collings demos. Best demo I heard yet of the Throback pickups.

@kathleenbergeron1292 7 лет назад

This is a lot like the sound he got on Dylan's "Soon After Midnight" (on the Tempest album). So lush and lovely!

@briankahanek 6 лет назад

Big fan of both Charlie and Collings ... great combo! thx for sharing :)

@preciousbash3749 8 лет назад

Nice sound. Very Sextony!!! Great instrument demo too. Very informative and not stale or humdrum!! :0)

@lyesryes 8 лет назад

Wow I want to hear him rip out the guitar solo from Sunday Clothes on that beautiful guitar!

@j_freed 8 лет назад

You can tell he has really bonded with THIS particular guitar VS being kind of a shill.

@ToddAndelin 8 лет назад

at lunch w my brother in law today. for an hour all he talked about was Collings guitars...

@daw162 4 года назад

First time you ever play one after a lifetime of hit or miss with other guitars, you just wonder how everything is so perfect on them. I've had 7 on them. In order to get one that wasn't perfect, a prior owner had to file the nut slot low following instructions for an add on trem without understanding what he was doing or why.

@darrelljourdan3687 Год назад

Had the honor many years ago of meeting Charlie via working on his '49 Merc with Sexton's friend, Mercury Charlie. Sexton was just as laid back and friendly as he is in this vid.... He didn't know me from Adam, but since I was a friend of a friend, he talked to me as if I was a good friend of his. Awesome personality and an absolutely phenomenal guitarist.

@j.l.harkins3817 7 лет назад

uhhhhhhhh...what?

@wonderlandrockopera 8 лет назад

elitists

@jasonmoore843 5 лет назад

I am as far from an elitist as you can get an I play a Soco Deluxe because it is just that amazing. So versatile and perfect for everything. I wont touch any of my Gibsons while this guitar is in my collection.

@69kpm 8 лет назад

Nice guitar but most Les Paul copies are nice. I own two real Gibson's and have no use for rip offs.

@Grant_Ferstat 8 лет назад

+Kevin Moore It's a guitar that's obviously influenced by Gibsons I'd say, but certainly not a LP copy given that it's semi!

@durhamelectronics1068 8 лет назад

+Kevin Moore I own a Gibson Les Paul Standard, a Gibson Howard Roberts, and one of these Collings SoCo's... the Collings destroys both Gibson's. Gibson's have not left their case in a year.

@69kpm 8 лет назад

Gibson is every place because they are the best! I only see Fender and Gibson on the stages played by the greats! Never Collings, I know of them but it is another Les Paul copy.

@tablaturebutler2823 8 лет назад

+Kevin Moore - Budweiser sells a LOT of beer, not because it's good (it's dreadful swill) but because they spend BANK on advertising. Fender and Gibson make many fine instruments, but also invest heavily in advertising and image-making. Many makers produce instruments every bit as good, if not better than theirs. A lot of instruments you see on stage may LOOK like Fenders or Gibsons, but they're actually made by others. Collings have a stellar rep - have for years...

@chrislestermusic 8 лет назад

I'm not sure how you think that a semi hollow body guitar is a copy of a Les Paul guitar. That doesn't make a lot of sense. I also don't agree that just because you see Fenders and Gibsons everywhere that makes them the "best". I see more Kias than I do Ferraris but that hardly means that the Kia is a better car. Not to say that your opinion is wrong but given that you haven't even played the Collings I don't see how you could comment on what is better.

moron or troll?

You may need to re-evaluate this ridiculous notion.

セクストンは、デビュー寸前まで日本で暮らしていました。彼のギグは最高でした❤

@charlespeterson3798 5 лет назад

I have NOT listened to Bob Dylan in almost 50 years, but after this first exposure to Sexton, I can see why he has a steady gig. He has the whole package.

@johnk3195 8 лет назад

Very nicely done demo and insight into what makes that guitar an extension of Charlie's playing.

@LeeButlerGuitarist 8 лет назад

STRANGE ANECDOTE. I WAS ON A BUS YESTERDAY, AND I WALK ON THE BUS, NYC, AND THIS DUDE IS SITTING IN THE BACK WITH A GUITAR CASE. I COULDN'T HELP ASK ABOUT HIS AXE, HE SAYS IT A "COLLINGS", AND THAT IT'S NOT MADE ANYMORE. I HAD NEVER HEARD OF A COLLINGS, BUT WEIRDLY, I LOGGED INTO RU-vid LAST NIGHT AND THE FIRST THING THAT POPS UP IS A VIDEO ON COLLINGS. THIS GUYS A LEGEND. THANKS FOR POSTING AND THE INTRO TO COLLINGS.
