I put some Furys in my squier and the damn thing catches fire when I pick it up.

@seymourduncan 8 лет назад

Awesome! I am happy it worked out well!

@timwitt8161 10 лет назад

I think that there should be a soap opera about how yngwie left dimarzio for seymour duncan... The beginning of the video makes it sound as though he made some kind of contract with Lucifer at the Namm show

@centaurus5676 4 года назад

Yngwie threw a Dimarzio HS 3 at Thomas Jefferson [the interviewer] and said ''make me one of those and label it Seymour Duncan''...and give me 25% of the sales...love malmsteen interviews!

@uplaywithfire 9 лет назад

I've always liked his playing,his sound(tone) was always very clean. which is ok too.especially for playing classical music,which he loves very much.

@andrellis 14 лет назад

Seymour the best pickups of planet. In Brazil you'll meet Seymour Duncan in the Andréllis Custom Shop.

@billydab0b 13 лет назад

8:29 dudes talking about the pickup while Yngwie is still staring at it,and he says "Yeah" even though he doesnt know what the statement was xD

@brownbigb 14 лет назад

absolutely. his tone on alcatrazz and the first 2-3 solo albums was unreal. he has not been able to better it in terms of tone, nor playing.

The "Dimarzio Era"

@vanguard4065 4 года назад

seventh sign and war to end were equally amazing in tone and feel

@plaidman67 10 лет назад

For those that are complaining that his tone was better on the 1st 4 albums, let me tell you this: Listening to the albums, I agree whole-heartedly. However, the latest few albums don't sound bad because of his guitar pickups or tone, they sound bad because too much compression was used for the over-all sound of the whole band in the studio recording. I attended his concert this year in Ventura, Ca and can tell you that live, with the YJM Fury pickups...the tone was sublime. Absolutely clean and beautiful just like or even better than the DiMarzio's. I know, because I have all of his albums and I have a version of the YJM Strat with the DiMarzio's.

@maxgaming2292 10 лет назад

but have you tried the Duncans ? i just tried the Dimarzios and they are good , but i'm very curious about the new pickups ... i think too that he's sound in the new albums is shit , but as you said , it could be due to poor production ...

@plaidman67 10 лет назад

MAX CASH Hi Max...I haven't personally tried the Duncans but I've heard them in use, live by the master himself at 3 concerts. They sound tremendous!

@maxgaming2292 10 лет назад

then Yngwie's new producer should really get fired ...

@maxgaming2292 10 лет назад

did you noticed if he was using he's new Fender distortion pedal ?

@plaidman67 10 лет назад

MAX CASH I couldn't tell. I imagine for the latest concert, he was as that was just this past July 3rd.

@PabloDarioLi 14 лет назад

The HS-3 tone is holy, period.

@longwhip 13 лет назад

The Dimarizio's ALWAYS sound compressed in a weird way, almost plastic, fake or contrived. Seymour built me two custom sets one for my Gary Smalley strat and one set of one off JB and Jazz for my 10 pound Les Paul and I have not used any other pickups for over twenty-five years. Seymours pickups and work ethic is what making music and understanding artists needs are about!

@deanwitt7903 Месяц назад

A advertisement for Seymour Duncan pickups while the music in background has all been made using DiMazio hs3 .😂

@perpetual61 14 лет назад

Why is Everyone Making such a Big Deal with Yngwie Switching pickups ! He has to make a Living and He is a Music Impire. The Music Indusry is a Business. I have never know a Guitarist that Gets Hated on for Everything that he Does. Leave Yngwie Alone He is a LEGEND and doesn't have to Prove anything to anyone.

@douglasnisbet1189 3 года назад

Probably because he spent 25 years saying dimarzio were the best. He even had a signature pickup with them. He has said many times he will only endorse products that he believes in 100%. Now he is saying that Dimarzio are shit. That is why people find his move a bit strange. Also a bit odd that the Black Star playing in the background to this video was recorded with his Dimarzio pickups. If they're that bad, why would Yngwie allow that?

@jeshely Год назад

@@douglasnisbet1189 exactly! One thing is to say, I like this one more now because XYZ and another to basically trash the pickup that was integral to your sound for over 2 decades.

@SantomPh 13 лет назад

he's talking about Seymour Duncans...but isn't the music in the background played in the DiMarzio loaded Strats?

@light487 Год назад

It's a real credit to SD engineers to be able to translate "feel" and "emotional" considerations into pickup structure and wiring.

@markdonnelly6921 2 года назад

great to see that level of pro craftmanship

@dsvet 12 лет назад

YJM isn't egotistical or arrogant, he's just confident in what he knows and what he can do. Many people said the same about Bruce Lee being cocky and arrogant. No he just was confident same with Yngwie. Both artist who are masters of their craft.

@JerkyChid 14 лет назад

What I was waiting for, thanks

@CHAINDRIVENOFFICIAL 14 лет назад

I had the Dimarzio YJM pickups in my strat. You need an overdrive pedal for them to rock & also a noise gate. The fact that his new pickups are hum canceling sounds like an improvement. I have Duncan's & DiMarzios in my Guitars. They are both good it is just a matter of picking what is right for you as a player. Yngwie Rocks!

@TheAxe4Ever 14 лет назад

@Liturgyofwar I've heard the pickups in person. My best friend (who is a Malmsteen FREAK) installed them in his strat, replacing the Dimarzio YJM pickups. He has since put the Dimarzio's back in. Although I think these are the best sounding single coils SD makes, to my ears, they lack the punch of the DiMarzio YJM's. Personally, I've always prefered the sound of DiMarzio pickups compared to SD's. Of course as you know, tone is subjective. What's one man's trash, is another man's treasure.

@SP2333 12 лет назад

I recently rewired my 2012 YJM strat to complete cloth covered vintage wiring. Including changing the pickup wiring.

@PerpetualMoon 13 лет назад

"play with legato, pick, play with your teeth. i do all of that" hahaha

@WoWintosh 13 лет назад

He doesn't play guitar with his teeth, he just gets so hungry that he tries to eat the guitar.

@FimWorld 13 лет назад

@ThePrincevassago Some of the Japanese only versions, such as the Edwards Alexi model come/came with a SD Blackout.

@sixfoursoul2538 4 года назад

I play funk classic rock an R&B bearly kow who Yngvie is I played these today and they were the best sounding pup I have heard, the were soooo clean , great dynamics took gain really well , no hum wow there are really good pups

@detectivedeckard1048 14 лет назад

A rare case of someone not just being a guitarist, but a musician.

@These_go_to_eleven_1959 12 лет назад

MY favorite part is at 1:22, i totally get what he is saying there! A pickup for me has to not only have a great tone but the way it "responds" to my playing is even more important! I found that only with dimarzio's or boutque handwounds like MHD pickups. It is a feel thing that way the pickup tracks fast playing. dimarzio has that down IMHO! the Air Zone/Air Norton set is my favorite. does everything i tell it to...

@angusorvid8840 4 года назад

That's been the main thing I've loved about DiMarzio since I've been using them, which began way back around '86. I noticed right away that they tracked way better, the response, the cut-thru. With the exception of very few Duncans, I find they generally do not have the responsive performance of DiMarzios.

@infectionsman 14 лет назад

"the fury will soon be unleashed somewhere near you!" AHAHAHAHAH

@These_go_to_eleven_1959 12 лет назад

Agree! that tone is dimarzio and so much better than the newer duncan fury's as matter of fact YJM was using the dimarzio FS-1 fat strat pu's back then with steeler and alcatrazz, he went to the HS3 later.

@Vintageman81 14 лет назад

I think Seymour Duncan pays him more easily. This is the reason. Nothing else! For me, he had the best tone to the Trial by fire period.

@simple280596 12 лет назад

Yngwie malmsteen welcome to the seymour duncan family

@wonnie 14 лет назад

i was actually quite surprised to see he wasn't with dimarzio anymore. i love the Hs-3 and YJM pick ups and they produce such a nice tone and sound. it was hard to believe that he chose to move to seymour duncan because of probably money. it just goes to show what money can do. but funny thing is that he still plays exclusively hs-3 and yjm pick ups by dimarzio right now from what i hear.

@elpablosky6300 Год назад

Yngwie is not just a amazing guitar player he know a Lot of pickups all the electronics.

@roathripper 14 лет назад

i dont understand why he is no longer with diMarzio? can anyone explain? why couldn't they enhance their pickups, he was with them for years!

@perfectzero7 4 года назад

These pickups sound Really good, but there's many people that is very "familiarized" with the sound of Yngwie in his very first albums. They use to call it "The Dimarzio Era". It was a kind of perfect combination between composition, technique and the tone of those Dmz's... that made that happen.

@triviumgibson 13 лет назад

8:36 Did you hear all that gold? The man has got some class

@PokerPekka 13 лет назад

Very cool video. Yngwie rocks!!!

@SuperDsffdsf 13 лет назад

seymour pickups = the beast pickups

@Resetonedw 13 лет назад

in all of his interviews, he always has a pick on the hand

@trevinor3 14 лет назад

yngvie is just enhancing his sound and making a little coin its all good! Seymour will produce a killer yngvie pickup!

@N1k0zj 14 лет назад

Yngwie looks so amused by the pickup at 8:12, look at his face while he's staring at the pickup

@MarkIV19 12 лет назад

guy: we went through and we were really dissapointed just instead of here yngwie: yeah.. LOL

@raydan18 13 лет назад

great guitarist and artist(that's why he played with Al Di Meola - Sons of Anu Black Utopia ) both my favourite))

@Liturgyofwar 14 лет назад

@NickMass35 Actually, he doesnt say it here, but he said he asked Dimarzio to get better pickups for MANY years and they never wanted to bother.So eventually he went with Duncans ;)

@Liturgyofwar 14 лет назад

@immerrocknroll No, he just wasnt happy with his pickups and asked Dimarzio for many years to produce better pickups.They never bothered, so he simply switched.

@davejohnsonmusic 13 лет назад

Go with small dog companies like Lindy Fralin. They're not mass produced and you can specify a slight over, or underwind to get the tone you're looking for. I went with the blues Specials and they sound fantastic. I was looking for a slightly flatter tone without the piercing highs, but they still have all these beautiful harmonics popping out no matter where your guitars volume knob is.

@shinybald36 13 лет назад

@Xcorgi I prefer duncan, but that could be due because i'm use to them, but i'm sure demarzio makes good pickups, pretty much any replacement pickup company thats been in business for 20 years or like dimarzio more, make good pickups.

@screenpuller 11 лет назад

I guess haters are just gonna hate... funny how they usually don't know what the hell they're talking about. Was Dime "shitting" on Dean when he switched to Washburn? Or maybe Clapton was "shitting" on Gibson when he switched to Fender. Obviously you need to re-examine your definition of loyalty.

@grables 12 лет назад

funny how they play blackstar in the background on Di Marzios?

@supermarine67 13 лет назад

Interesting that Yngwie is straying from his long-term relationship with Dimarzio. I like that he's going with Seymour Duncan. They've always been my personal favorite. Every new guitar I've bought immediately gets loaded with 'em...

@Peterplayingguitar 12 лет назад

With every interview my respect for Yngwie just grows and grows. I don't think he's got an ego problem at all.

@gtrjoe68 14 лет назад

Did they make 3 pickups for bridge, middle and neck?????

@IvanMahyaDeva 11 лет назад

the comments bellow are more entertaining then the interview itself. ;)

@CuteKittyMeep 13 лет назад

"...but if we DID plug it in, you could play one note, go off and have a bit of lunch or something and come back, and that one note would still be going on..."

@kibekzz 14 лет назад

anyone know wht happen??because the yjm pickup became hs4..feel sad too..bcause i am on in a million people who use yjm,hs3 picup..anyone please tell..it sound great too

@ethr95awd 5 лет назад

@Jerometk 2 года назад

Where is the background music from?

@xSnoweyexp 14 лет назад

@zakk1983tdm dude yngwie is always evolving and he becomes greater the older he gets !! Don't doubt about him , he is the greatest guitarist ever !! when he was with alcatraz he was a 21 year old kid , he is 47 now , do really expect he would sound exactly the same ??? ofcourse not !! that would be unnatural, but what is great about yngwie is that he does whatever the fuck he wants !!

@Liturgyofwar 14 лет назад

@TheAxe4Ever Did you hear how the actual pick up sound, or are you staing this merely cuz you're assuming?

@Dreamdancer11 12 лет назад

Well all his iconic albums and songs that his fans know and loved were recorded with dimarzios....nice quiet pickups that suck up even loads of distortion like sponge without mudding the sound.The Hs are very musical pickups,ask Eric Johnson...you can cut through the mix without blur and muddiness....i dont know how great those new SDs are but personally wherever i find an Hs3 and even an Hs4 or Hs2....second hand ill snatch them in a hurry....

@turockandar 11 лет назад

I feel that another four golden Ferrari neck pendants would be in order...as it stands it is rather understated after all Page , Clapton, Beck and Moore all wear ten Porsche, Rolls, Lamborghini, Maserati and Lotus ones right?

@PedroAsfora 13 лет назад

whats the song in the backround at 2:15?

@Misfitnz8 7 лет назад

the best pickups you can fit into your fender guitar.

@These_go_to_eleven_1959 12 лет назад

yeah and erics fav was a dimarzio HS-2 wired for one coil on. Eric definitely knows tone so dimarzio cant be that bad

@brt927 13 лет назад

@Xcorgi I agree with you for the most part. Dimarzio makes the best humbucker pickups in the market... when it comes to single coil pups i think duncan has the upper hand...

@samljer 9 лет назад

sound isnt from your fret finger to the pickup. it still goes to the bridge...

@JohnnyTsak316 13 лет назад

Yngwie's tone was always the best of all the neoclassical guys - Him and Uli Roth . I bet this pu rocks - I got 2 try some .

@jem7772 14 лет назад

I never settle ????? What did you do at dimarzio for 20 years with a pickup that did not cut it for you ???

@BrianBosboom 13 лет назад

What happened to his Dimarzio deal?

@StanleyKu 14 лет назад

@AtanasovPeter I agree he was a better player back then, but actual tone does depend on amps, pickups etc..

@AHMADF93 14 лет назад

what happenned to his DiMarzio YJM?

@kingv911 13 лет назад

I like how the pickups are made in a factory by people who look like my aunts in Wisconsin.

@haydenfrosti212 11 лет назад

Hey Mr. Duncan I have a Hm Strat with a Full Shred in the Bridge, would 2 YJM pickups work well in the 2 single coils in the neck and middle postion?

@zbarneyz 13 лет назад

I wish they could make a Yngwie humbucker. It would be so awesome. I think i might have to buy this set anyways.

@douglasnisbet1189 Год назад

Yngwie's pickups are humbuckers. So they already make them. He hasn't used single coils in almost 40 years.

@NickMass35 14 лет назад

So the entire time he was with Dimarzio he never worked on the pick up to make it the way he wanted?

@123lowp 12 лет назад

Yngwie is awesome

@LfunkeyA 13 лет назад

@brilliantsavage he's talking about his gear, which makes more sense with the 'sword and armor' analogy. if he was to talk about his art, the knight would have to talk about his fighting ability.

@irmasil3 4 года назад

When you believe that your pickups are made from the Gods of heavy metal, but instead they are made from Aunt Betty and her gals.....

@ANDYB1478 11 лет назад

What happened with DiMarzio? Did his contract run out with them or did Seymour Duncan offer him a better deal?

@cioaeuirtert 14 лет назад

Sono curioso di ascoltare il suono di questi nuovi pick-up, spero che siano veramente migliori dei Di Marzio soprattutto per quanto riguarda i legati!

@electrickithara 13 лет назад

@arnyarny77 13 лет назад

@wordhog61 13 лет назад

He may look weird to some, he may have an ego, but this guy can play and is one of the best of all time, period.

@ramencurry6672 Год назад

I don’t think he has an ego overall. It’s more like he enjoys being a rock star. It’s sort of like a cosplay character vibe that he likes.

@Adamclayton5 13 лет назад

Ahhhh finally know how to pronounce Yngwe now!

@Uberloinvongenchler 13 лет назад

@thechosenonedead I wasn't justifying his change of supplier, I was justifying his change of pickup; you are absolutely right about him doing it for the money, i suspect.
