Rockabilly comes right from jazz... And if you can't play the blues you can't play jazz. In fact, Brian Setzer can play jazz. Check him out on sleepwalk. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Eosj3MUD2WE.html
@@Wyrdo999 Where did you see that Sleepwalk was jazz music . It's just Instrumental slow rock. Santo and Johnny were playing surf , easy listening, ou rock music, not Jazz at all . Ok Brian can play jazz, and country, and blues, and metal . He can play everything . But he's not a specific jazz player .
@@janficox5686 Sleepwalk has been covered by MANY jazz artists, its considered a standard, and it has been a song in the "REAL BOOK" since Its first publication.
Yep, probably THE standard jazz box that all others compare to. (Though Jim Hall switched to his D'Angelico New Yorker a long time ago, and I think also has played some other custom boxes.)
Love my 1996 reissue. Really impressed with the good tone and how well it plays, and the price is very reasonable. If considering, look for serial numbers that start with R, which designates it was made in the Peerless factory in Korea. This is where the best crafted guitars (reissues in particular) from Southeast Asia are made. Peerless made guitars will probably have a premium on them someday, if not already.
I especially like how the D'Angelico is SOOOOO out of tune. Not only do you not know anything about guitars, you appear to be tone-deaf as well. Very, very funny. This should go viral
A real player would say to play whatever you're most comfortable with . None of the instruments in the video were ,1 of a kind , hand made Jazz box . There are a lot of really crazy new guitars out there now !!!
What is the musical scale playing at 1:47 With guitar Ibanez AF95? I want to know that scale for long time and I sometimes hear in some songs. I guess it’s not jazz btw…
He da man. Saw him live back in the early '80's. I was in the 4th row on the main aisle seat. After the show when he walked down the ramp and aisle, during the standing ovation, I shook his hand. I wouldn't wash my hand for a week after that, hoping it'd make me a better player. :-)
Another great example of how many people don't understand jazz, nor are they embarrassed that they don't. I'm surprised the Fender Jazzmaster didn't make the list 😂
The Yamaha AEX1500 (Martin Taylor) with acoustic PU In bridge, and mini preamped humbucker In neck position is a great jazz guitar. It can be plugged in directly to a PA. No née for D.i box.
I still would put the Gibson ES-335 at position 1, and not because of BB KING's Lucille, but the original, open one. (Lucille has its violin like slots closed)
Maybe #1 blues guitar not jazz. Most guys play hollow body. Some play a 335 but that’s a minority .es 175 and Gibson L5 have to be at the top of a long list.
Like comparing saxophones : The player and the mouthpiece make 70% of the sound. For the rest, the sax should be exempt of air leak & well tuned, that's all. Concerning the guitars, the hollow body adds something to the sound though. Something that you cannot imitate with a solid body, whatever the amp & setting. Provided the player knows how to sound jazz, this is true. (A rock player would not make you hear any difference)
I definitely consider BB to be blues, which I know is technically a form of jazz but its a more biting, in your face, tone than the other examples. I do agree that the 335 should be on the list though, a very versatile guitar.
BB is the King of the Blues (pun intended), but this list is just one person's opinion. And the 355 listed with BB is very close to the 335. I'm not really sure how they reached these conclusions, but there are definitely some unusual guitarists portrayed for a "jazz" list. Brian Setzer, for instance, is a fabulous guitarist and can play some jazz when he wants, but he's known as a rockabilly player and is playing some bluesy stuff in the Lightnin' Hopkins vein in that clip. And the last clip of Wes playing "Windy" is just strange.
Yes,It couldn't be worse. Playing rockabilly, blues...Many times with poor audio, and many guitars are not the best for jazz. the most knows like ES 175, the Birdland by Gibson, 5th Avenue by Godin, the best guitars builders like Benedetto, Buscarino, Campellone, Comins, D'Aquisto and more.
A mixture of guitars. Some famous and of value, others of low price. They should all be jazz guitars but examples are of various kinds: Blues, Country. Great guitarists along with amateurs The author is a bit confused or fused
the chills have come babe, and I was sniffling at work, oh, the chills have come babe, I know it's going to hurt. They said I have to stay home, when I want to go outside, they're talking about six feet, and standing on the line.
From the first moment stupid..., they show an image of an old Ibanez artist solidbody then Scofield playing a semi, then Setzer playing rockabilly on a Gretsch??? This is not even a realistic ranking...what a waste of time
the ibanez artist is humber 10 but thats not the guitar the guy is playing to demo it lol the artist is a solid body the one hes playing has f holes j scofield model or something.
This overview lacks a lot. And it contains some major errors. For example: I miss the Gibson ES 175. This guitar was and is the main guitar of a lot of jazz musicians. And where is the Selmer Maccaferri guitar as played by the great Django Reinhardt? Mistakes are: BB King is not a jazz man, he's a very good blues player. Brian Setzer is not a jazz player, he's a rockabilly guitarist. The Gibson shown is not a ES 355 but a ES 335. The ES 355 is recognizable by its split diamond inlay.
