Golden Fleece, Tone King Amp and Custom Gibson pickups. As soon I as heard that Golden Fleece I jumped to go and buy one but that I wondered if it was more of the super expensive guitar, amp and pedal combo that made that tone plus Paul’s magic touch on the track in post...💭 🤔 💭 🤔....I’ll probably buy the pedal either way. Rhett, have you heard the Jimi Hendrix “ Machine Gun “ Live at the Isle of Wight and the Live at the Atlanta Pop Festival “ Hear my Train A’ Comin “ fuzz tone? That two are the pinnacle of all fuzz tones for me. * Update - Bought the new edition of Golden Fleece, well updated graphics, and it’s so good. Totally different than any other fuzz I’ve owned or played and it’s extremely dynamic. I love mini pedals that pack a big punch and have one knob simply labels “ More “ Now looking at the High Road which has a little more gain. ( and the Pettyjohn fuzz as well 😉)

@stevekirby7333 3 года назад

Golden Fleece. Love mine. It sounds totally different turned down. The woolyness goes away and it becomes a very nice bright distortion. There's a video with Greg Koch trying one and while he's digging the full on sound, when he turns the guitar down his face lights up. Zach intended it to be that way. My take on it. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-SihPjyK0lF4.html If only I could play like either of you guys.

@papersquares 3 года назад

Best way to pay tribute to Jimi is to play the hell out of your guitar every day with passion and creativity. He wasn't a guy that sought after ultra rare or expensive guitars, he just made do with whatever he had. He didn't even bother to track down a left handed Strat, he just flipped a right handed one upside down. Highly doubt that he would have cared for fancy reissues like these.

@P_Ezi 3 года назад

Well said.

@simonpercival6175 3 года назад

Yes and I think he would not want his stepsister who might I add was 5 at the time of his death to copyright all his songs and not make them available to people who don’t have music streaming services and I think the way they have treated Jimi after his death I feel like if he would have come back today they he would be appalled by the way these big corporations are making money off a dead man.

Ever since I was about 8 years old I’ve revered Jimi as the most one of a kind player to ever live, yet I learned through this video that he played an SG at one point. By the way. I’ve never had any interest in music lesson like videos or channels. But Paul Davids... man you go above and beyond every video. You have awesome video ideas and you deliver them in the greatest of ways. I’ve played since I was a little kid, I had lessons all throughout elementary to high school, and did nothing but music up until high school. I never wanted to make a career of it, nor have I ever tried. For me, guitar is the best life long hobby that I’ll ever have. I’m eternally grateful that my older brother got me into playing at a young age. I hadn’t wanted to make any actual attempt at excelling with my music in years!! But thanks to your channel I’ve found that itch to learn more again. Other than your extensive knowledge and talent, I really appreciate your demeanor and personality. I think that’s what sets you apart from most channels similar to what you do. You rock man, thank you for sharing your passion and what you know with us. FYI. I haven’t wanted a new guitar since getting my Martin made from part Formica, as well as my 59 Danelectro... but that Flying V catches the eye for sure.

To whom it may concern; Jimi's custom Flying V did not end up with Tappy after Jimi died. As a matter of fact, Tappy only did occasional work for Jimi very early on. Of the three electric guitars that followed Jimi on his last European tour, one that had to be aborted on September 6, 1970 due to basist Billy Cox's declining health, all ended up with Jimi in London. After his untimely death some weeks later, the olympic white 1968 Stratocaster ended up with drummer Mitch Mitchell (who sold it in 1990), the black 1968 Stratocaster ended up with girlfriend Monika Dannemann (after her suicide in 1996 it went to her then boyfriend Uli Jon Roth) - and the custom 1969/1970 Flying V ended up with roadie Eric Barrett (who's sold it to the Hard Rock Cafe in 1985.

Didn’t Hendrix pretty much rely on his Fender Strat????

@markjackson5665 3 года назад

From September 1967 Jimi switched between a Strat and his self-painted Flying V when playing live (there are plenty of photos). The SG came later, in October 1968, and lastly the left-handed special order Flying V in May 1970.

Nice breakdown of these 2 "unobtainium" gems. Love the 'zen' enviro and the Chris Buck influenced fingerstyle demos. So, you won me over to join the "drooling" appreciation of next levels of guitar geekery.

Paul: "only 125 are made, that doesn't make them rich" ... Me doing some calculations.. 125x10k.. ehhhmm if this doesn't make them rich.. what will? 1 million, 250k for a few guitars.

I guess when Jimi had 'em they didn't have dings all over them. I still think that dings are a bit fake. You'd be wrong that they are unaffordable, though. There are so many tech people, bankers and lawyers about these days. The rich get richer, the poor get poorer. They could have sold out a double run of those guitars for the same money. But things like this are made for two reasons: 1. A great PR story - as evidenced by this video. 2. They recalibrate consumer expectations of price. At $10k a pop, that starts to make $5k Gibsons look like a snip. It's a very old trick in luxury goods marketing. You have not been charged for this marketing lesson.

They will put out "cheaper" models to entice the players but will be pretty much the standard fare but for twice the price. But it will have a Hendrix truss rod cover and some case candy. Can't get on board the Gibson hype train... Now your playing and tone are superb Mr Davids! Keep chasing after it!

While I find the marketing for these guitars filled with assumption on “what Jimi thought/did/said..” very annoying, I must also remind many whining about the price and also assuming Jimi would have detested expensive guitars, that the 1967 Flying V was priced at $345 which is equivalent to $2,694.71 in 2020. So he played pricey guitars. Even strats weren’t cheap in the 50s and 60s (similarly priced to the Flying V) So adding the limited nature of this run, the cosmetic work done in aging (may dislike it but it is more labor cost) and the collectibility of the name , Gibson isn’t asking for a ton of money really. That is if you want a collectible. Of course, if you don’t like them, remember Gibson isn’t making you buy them. I won’t be buying one.
