Fender Telecaster '52 Reissue & Peavey Classic 30

[homersimps1]

Classy, soulful playing. Thumbs up!

[BossHogster]

With a 52 reissue and a Peavey classic I was expecting a more "gritty" blues. Come on, they were made for it! Too smooth for my liking but nice playing nevertheless.

[zthetha]

Nice fat and husky - just how I like it! Picked up a Peavey Studio Pro 112 on ebay a few weeks ago and it is really sweet amp clean. So now I'm after a 20 or 30 tube for a warmer jazz sound. Oh yeah - nice licks, man.

[druno82]

Killer tone! Just gave away my Blues Jr as a birthday present, and in the market for a new amp.

[MrMegaDownloader]

Who's that bitch who don't like it???

[gurdjieff46]

Beautiful playing and very soulful!!

[thefuckerdad]

@BluesZep Fala Fernando, tranquilo?

Me diga uma coisa.. tô indo pros EUA trazer uma fender pra mim, quero mudar um pouco de tone, rs...

Eu pego a Strat ou a Tele? a Tele é maravilhosa, mas a Strat é bem mais versátil. Vou tocar de blues até um classic rock nela. Qual tu recomenda? por falar nisso, ótimo vídeo. Valeu!

[BluesZep]

@thefuckerdad

Cara, eu sou suspeito pra falar, porque eu não vejo essa versatilidade toda na strato. Tem timbres bons, mas não cobre muita coisa. Principalmente pra rock. O captador da ponte normalmente é agudo demais, enfim, pro meu gosto é limitada.

Já a tele eu acho muito mais guitarra. O captador da ponte é rocker pra caramba, vai muito bem com drive. No braço tem um corpo legal (há quem prefira um HB ali), e tem o estalado da combinação dos dois.

Enfim, pra mim é fácil optar pela tele.

[armelphil]

Great tone, Is this a direct recording from amp? Did you used a recording software and add echo/reverb effects on the final mixing of the recording? Thanks.

[BluesZep]

@armelphil

Yes, I miced the amp directly to computer. Software used was Sony Vegas. I don't remember if the reverb is only from Peavey Classic 30 or if I added on Sony Vegas. Probably is the "small room" reverb from Sony Vegas.

[Robin8207]

hi are you using a overdrive pedal thanks

[BluesZep]

@Robin8207

No, just guitar and amp.

[BluesZep]

@MrGizzit2me

Thanks!!

[richard42960]

GREAT SOUND!!!! What are your amp settings?

[BluesZep]

@richard42960 sorry, I don't remember

[slpc30]

man i love all of your vids .great playing i have a classic 30 killer amps

[dakopinga]

Sorry!! but what setting you use!!! I like this sound!!!

Thank you!!! ;)

[Tumenihobbies]

I have been agonizing over the BJ/Classic 30 dilemma. This vid sure helped but how is loud bedroom level tone? Does it need to be pushed to sound this good?

[Pomiferous]

Very nice.Just put a classic 30 on lay away.Looks like I will have to get the Tele out of the closset.

[henzoni]

Best demo on youtube for the classic 30 so far that i've seen....

[arthurbersanmaia]

esse ampli tem um som muito bom!!

Cara, seguinte:

Dá pra tocar com o classic 30 num lugar fechado, de uns 30 metros quadrados??

E o volume?

Dá pra botar tudo no mæaximo, sem saturar o canal limpo e sem danificar o ampli?

[tupelotel]

... have watched and listened to loads of guitarists and valve amps over the past couple of weeks and this is one of the best demos musically and tonally... nice playing and nice amp.

[trentbuzz]

is that Tony Stewart?

[rodbuoy]

awwww!!! yes the tele..........we salute you

[abcstrategie]

Hey man, can you tell me the settings? thanks a lot, good job! ;-)

[goffbum]

Very nice but where are those knobs set to get that nice break up???????

[GregoAMA]

Grande!!!!

[sthugh]

Telecasters and Classic 30s seem made for each other. I also like that little Super Champ XD with a Tele.

[BluesZep]

@sthugh

Yes, man, tele + classic 30 is a great combo.

[lastkiz13]

how do you get such a fat tone on the tele?

[topperspoppers]

its tony stewart!

sounds great dude

[jb1563700]

What's the neck like? I've only played Teles with a C neck, how would you describe the U neck? Is it a lot different from regular Teles?

[willcherryface]

Great playing my friend. Just wondering, how is the clean channel on the Peavey?

:)

[havenmusic42]

I love your tone - I really do! I've got 2 peavy classic 30's on their way and as soon as they arrive I am going to listen to yer playin again for some inspiration - great tone and great playin!

[adbiwer]

got the same combination, but a 62 custom shop tele which also sounds great!!!

very good playing zep go on!!

[ArtDonna84]

Outstanding blues, tone and love the guitar. Just saw DCoopers and another awesome viceo and tone. Thanks for taking the time to post.

[dcooper830]

Hey Blueszep... I finally got my '52 RI Tele earlier this week, and I just put a video up. Man I love this guitar!

[BluesZep]

@dcooper830

Congrats, Dave! I loved your tele tone!

[tchenthomas]

@dcooper830 Are you american?

[bushibayushi]

great tone, great feel, the way it was meant to be played ;)

[StangLX718]

That sounded so good I almost forgot I wasn't playing my iTunes!!!

How does this amp sound with the master cranked? Does it have a nice warm power tube fuzz/crunch?

Have you every compared it to a Fender Blues JR?

Regards,

Stang

[BluesZep]

@StangLX718

Thanks, bro. I'm really glad you enjoyed.

Regarding Classic 30, I love this amp. It has a great sound with master crancked, but it's very loud.

Comparing it with Fender BJ, I'd say it has a warmer sound and more midrange.

[GroovyGuitar02]

@BluesZep hey , tried the C30 this weekend . I had almost the same tone than this video , on my Lindy fralin 54's-equipped american standard strat and the help of a compressor , perhaps .

Sounded so good , i think i'll grab one . Especially , it can do a lot of things pretty well if you use some good pedals with it .

[guitargeezer]

I'm having a difficult time deciding which combination of your's that I like the best. The 335 and Les Paul with the Classic 30sound great, but your Tele sounds just awesome.

I have had a couple of Classic 30s but sold them. You have just about sold me on correcting my mistake.

By the way, your demos are some of my favorite demos on YouTube. Keep 'em coming..

[LaGulaDelNorte]

where did you get that backing track from??it´s beatiful.btw, love ur tele, sounds great, awesome playing!5/5

[bbsb300]

Sweet sound, Cheers Billy ;)

[dcooper830]

Hey Blueszep... I just ordered one of these 52 RI Teles. I'm exited! I can't wait to get it. Do you still have yours? I hope so. Yours sounds great! : )

[BluesZep]

Hey Dave! Nice to hear that! You'll love your 52 RI. I still have mine, and I don't think about sell it!

Congrats for your new guitar, and record some videos!

[putzgrila2008]

awesome!

[ketamine50]

very very very goooooooooodddd!!

what kind off effects do you use ?

[BluesZep]

As said on video description, no effects. Just guitar and amp.

[bleakanddivine]

Nice expressive style and tone. Any particular make and guage of strings you use on the tele? And do you roll off the guitar tone knob much? What do you generally do for mic placement? Thanks

[BluesZep]

I use Ernie Ball or GHS .010 strings. I roll the volume and tone knobs to get different tones, but usually they are all open. Mic pointed to center of speaker.

[ROMULOVOCAL]

amigo...essa Telecaster 52 reissue ela possui o braço um pouco mais fino q as normais 52? é só essa duvida que eu tenho...parabéns pelo som...abraço!

[BluesZep]

Não, o braço é bem grosso, U-shape mesmo

[TheFunkify]

Hi BluesZep, great playing! Very nice leads over the changes, man. Quality. Rock on!

[levinjapan]

Muito obrigado pela resposta e orientação. Acho que vou pegar um amp destes mesmo.

Desejo-lhe uma ótima semana!!

[BluesZep]

Obrigado, boa semana pra você também!

[levinjapan]

Que tom LINDO!!

Você acha que essa caixa é suficiente pra tocar com banda que tenha um baterista violento? rs

Também estou pensando em tocar na igreja, que é pequena e tem cerca de 50 pessoas.

Obrigado e um abraço

[BluesZep]

Olá. Sim, é perfeitamente sufuciente para o que você citou. Esse amplificador é muito alto mesmo, aguenta tocar com bateria e locais bem maiores.

[GazzaBloom]

Beautiful tone!

[Foodie88]

Hey there. Nice playing, good phrasing you got ;) one question.. do you recall the settings you were using here? Also, is the clasic 30 stock?

[BluesZep]

Sorry, but I don't remember the settings. The amp is stock, except tubes. They are EH and miniwatt on preamp, JJ on power.

[PindamonhaMAN]

Hmm.. Você q tem aquele blog da 335?

Muito bom seus videos, comecei a ver pra ve como q eh o Peavey Classic hehehe

Valeu!

[BluesZep]

Isso, cara, sou do blog da 335 mesmo.

Valeu, hein!!

[pauloqrp]

A real nice sounding amp,a shame it's so high priced here in Brazil.Think will build one exactly the same ,must cost a bit less!!Love this guitar too,a real "play everything guitar"not only a country music instrument as people use to say!Nice jamming too i like your stile!

[descompartamento]

could you please tell me where do you get the backingtracks?

[BluesZep]

Please read description

[kingxanex]

Nice jam, really enjoyed it :-)

[FlorianDhoudain]

I wanted to know how was the sound with a tele of the classic 30 ! ANd wow ...amazing ! In addition you're a f***in' great player ! Great Job !

great Job to Mats Nermark for his BT !

[boldasdylan]

nice rack.

[jkmehoff]

Awesome Playing and Tone.

[BluesZep]

Thanks!!

[konrrass]

cara, vc ta usando o captador original do braço dela?

tbm li que vc trocou os trastes,

pq ela trastejava, bend dificil?

to pensando em comprar uma destas,

ou a hot rod, entao preciso de todas as dicas possiveis eheheh

abraço e parabens pela sonzera!!

[BluesZep]

sim, os captadores são originais!

Valeu!

[edhilerio1807]

Some people tell me that the telecaster is not a good guitar because it had only two single coil , so it has no power to play rock or metal.But man screw al of them this guitar sound amazing and is really a good looking guitar. I want one.

[GroovyGuitar02]

and this guitar does rock and even metal pretty well ... this is a very inspiring guitar , some of them are cheap and still are awesome , i recommend everyone to get one =D

[tporche21]

Well they do make Teles with humbuckers now also.

[gahzeyboe]

@edhilerio1807 Those people don't know what they're talking about. TONS of great players play teles. You can check out one of the several deluxe telecasters, they come with a strat middle pickup. I personally prefer the tele bridge pickup to the strat bridge pickup actually, and I'm a strat guy.

[abcstrategiealcamo]

il suono di questa accoppiata è davvero notevole... non mi resta che comprare il peavey classic 30...

[pastorjim]

thanks for the backing link!

[BluesZep]

you're welcome!

[diegoxis007]

is this loud enough to play over a loud drummer??

[BluesZep]

oh, yeah! it's very loud!

[Mikeeee88]

that is some awesome tone

[cuadradoo]

hi!

You have a great tone! I have the same amp than you. What is yout eq in this video? could you tell us? Including volume, post, pre etc.

Thanks

[Keijz74]

Nice jamming. It sounds really nice.

[llvllarkinho]

E aí véio! Blz? Não tinha visto esse ainda, ficou massa! Tem pouca coisa no you tube onde se pode ver o som do classic 30, gravou esse como, microfonou ou é mic de aparelho digital? Abraço!

[BluesZep]

Opa! É microfonado com um Shure SM-58!

Abraço!

[VelhosNovos]

Caro,

Vc alterou alguma coisa neste Peavey? ou está todo original? abs!

Parabéns!

[BluesZep]

Apenas troquei as válvulas. No Pré está com EH e Miniwatt e power com JJ.

[paul0421]
