@DrHuhh Год назад

Accurate observations and great playing too. Tuning a strat down a half step to E-flat changes the timbre and the feel. SRV got that from Hendrix. Play that loud enough so that the sound begins to feedback or resonate in the guitar, and you've got a different instrument. SRV's speaker cabinet early in his career was a 15" -- nowadays usually only found with bass amps -- but that gives extra depth to the otherwise bright stratocaster. Put all these together and you're almost there. Just need to play like your life depends on it.

@inertiallychallenged Год назад

I think one of the frustrating things (there are many) about chasing Stevie's sound is that folks buy Fender re-issue amps etc but dont realize his amps were heavily modified... speakers, transformers, etc. So, what you are buying is only shall i say, in the spirit of his tone. Plus he played insanely loud. It was intense to hear him live. So, we play at home or in our buddies garage or your average club gig and it's usually not feasible to play that loud and pedals are needed to get those sounds at manageable volumes.

@alexs9168 Год назад

So true

@bradt.3555 Год назад

The biggest problem with tone chasing is your listening to a recorded sound and trying to duplicate from your amp in the room. His tone in the room would not sound like what your hearing and then if you record your tone that you've gotten on your amp it sounds different, so it kinda makes no sense. And yea I've seen Stevie live (no pun intended) and he played LOUD, blew Jeff Beck outa the venue.

@thomasguerra6810 Год назад

The main thing is volume. The JBLs, SS rectifiers, disabling normal channels.. those were just to sharpen that cranked Bf tone. Most players are in their bedrooms or sitting in front of a computer and can’t figure out why they can’t get that tone. Even with pedals promising that sound.

@bradt.3555 Год назад

@@thomasguerra6810 Yes, that's a point I've been trying to get across for years. It's the physics of what a speaker does at high volume and nothing can simulate that. All the talk about attenuators, that simulates what the electronics does but you've still eliminated what the speaker is doing. My point tho was people are listening to a recorded sound and trying to get that from their amp as if the recorded sound was what was coming from the artists amp. I discovered this years ago when I listened back to my tone when recorded with a band, wasn't the tone I had when sitting in front of my amp.

@thomasguerra6810 Год назад

@@bradt.3555 Yes. The amount of air and tonal characteristics of the speaker working to its optimal performance. I know it’s hard for alot of people to get to that volume level, but it’s really the only thing that’s going to get you there. There is clearly a market for these pedals or low volume options, but I promise anyone, those will never get you as close as you want to be, tone wise.

@bulletsforteeth5029 Год назад

I was fortunate to meet Stevie, and I've seen him play live several times in my home town of Austin, TX... You are right about Stevies hands, he was a very heavy handed player, whereas he put a lot of force into his playing, understand the guy would literally rain sweat over his guitar if that gives you any idea just how heavy handed he was. Other Blues players like Gibbons and King have a lighter touch as opposed to SRV's more aggressive approach, you can watch and listen to them play side by side and hear the difference in their techniques and tone. As for gear, I think Stevie would try to stay as true to his tone as possible like Gibbons does today, I don't think he would cheap out using simulations.

@whiskeywhiskeyromeo3730 Год назад

This has always made me think he started by playing hard driving acoustic for years......I only played acoustic for years before ever touching an electric....I was shredding through 10 gage electric strings like they were dental floss....but I made efforts to lighten up enough to keep 10s.....now I can't play bluegrass type acoustic as hard, trade off I guess.....SRV just upped to acoustic gages on electric so he didn't have to change his right hand drive!!!

@bulletsforteeth5029 Год назад

@@whiskeywhiskeyromeo3730 I was in my late teens when I met SRV, our interactions were very brief, simple hand shake and small talk, he was a very gentle soul and just a really nice guy to give me the time of day. I didn't speak with him about his gear or anything because he was busy and other people were vying for his time. I was just a lucky fan who got to meet him on a few occasions. As for his gear I can't really elaborate much, but the dude had a firm hand shake I can tell you that!

Lol There's a video of him and Buddy Guy, and Buddy is clearly laughing at it. They were head cutting, and Buddy kept trying to goad him into holding one- but Stevie couldn't do it.

I'd too would about attenuators, seems like the only way to get those tubes to really cook without looking your hearing quickly 😮

@blackie5566 Год назад

The little JHS Black Amp Box is not an attenuator, It's just a volume controller in a small black box, which can only be placed in an effects loop (if your amp hasn't one, then pls. don't buy it). I'm using one for my Marshall SV20H. It simply controlls the volume running from the preamp section into the poweramp section. Thats all. It works great and for me it's the only way to get the distortion from the amp, without killing my neighbours ;-)

@dannyllerenatv8635 Год назад

I think picking dynamics (from your right-hand technique) and the actual pickups themselves matter more than the string guage. Usually, a good set of low wind single coils (especially some that are mid-scooped, yes mid-scooped. That helps you get that top-end chime. Your amp and the TS will already provide plenty of mids).

@PedalPawn Год назад

Nice one mate! Thanks a lot for the comment 🎸

It was huge, also shook his hand later, I’m 6 foot one and have pretty big hands, he was a little short guy, but when we shook hands, his hand dwarfed mine it was huge, as for such a small guy, when they say, your tone is in your fingers, well, this guy big hands big sound, by the way, after the first song, I don’t think I caught my breath till the next day

Something I discovered on accident. If you want the Stevie tone, wire in your single coils with 500k pots and a .022 cap. It brightens the sound and makes it much more gritty just like Stevie’s tone. Or at least that’s what my ear tells me.

its fingers and clean heavy gauge strings on a Fender Stratocaster type guitar into a fender clean amp with reverb and a little breakup. dig in hard and play with passion. theres the radio srv tone for his hit rock songs with rotary tone and theres the overdrives when he plays hendrix like stuff...but he is known for the clean tone solos and his hands ability to manipulate the strings in only the way he did. you cant buy that. this is just click bait in a way. you can always tell when a player was influenced heavily by Stevie Ray.....its in the finger tone.

Lots of good points. The thing about the guitar pick is funny. I've done that exact same thing since my early 20s and to me it does give a completely different sound. Especially when you're strumming or even better when you're "scratching" your strings, then you can really lean into it and still get sort of a smoother sound. Usually I go for using the "wrong" edge on the pick and then I also tilt the pick about 45° to get moore of a scratchy pick sound rather than a picking pick sound.... if that makes any sense, haha. Don't know if SRV did that aswell but to me it gives a nice sound.

@yjmsrv 11 месяцев назад

I think it would be cool to do an even deeper dive then here on things like his actual dial settings... some of it is well known (like the 663 amp settings) some not- I never knew how to set up a Tube Screamer- but apparently having the drive way down and the volume and treble way up or all the way up gets you much closer to Stevie's tone (although the taped pedals pic from El-Mocombo would argue otherwise)- but generally a clean Fender amp and a Tube Screamer to start is well known- so a deeper dig with maybe some A/B comparisons would go a long way. I also think it's REALLY important to discuss how to get there WITHOUT insane volume levels. SO much of his tone is there because it's loud- but really- there is almost nowhere anymore that you can play loud at all. Gig stage volumes or so low now you'd never be able to turn up the way he did. Even in big venues- the stage volume is low and then it's all up to the house to get it louder.

Not sure about the "upside-down pick" comment. I thought he used it more like rotated 90 degrees and used one of the two fatter corners. I think that technique avoids getting hung up on the strings. Plus, you can dig in with more force.

I tried everything to come close. Besides a nice American strat it's in the amp and speakers. The missing link in my personal experience was a good vintage super reverb. Even on lower volumes (3 or 4 on the dial) the tone is there if playing is close enough. I don't use tube screamers. Blues driver works for me because with cranked gain I have a fuzz and with low gain a slight mid boost much nicer than TS

Yes, watching blind tests of different types of woods, or different gauges of strings, there’s never any noticeable difference. It’s a Strat, with a couple of 15’s, a couple Super Reverbs, sometimes two tube screamers and two wahs played at the same time. switching to the right combination of pick ups, then a lot of natural ability and creativity… this would be a great start! 😝🤘🏻🎸🇺🇸

What’s your opinion? Do Texas special pickups help creating the sound or are you better off with a 60’s style pickup and amp/ pedals? I have a stray with TS pu’s but find those a bit to harsh. Great video, great playing!! Like your pedals , saving up for the gipsy vibe! 🔥🔥☔️
