Hillsong United, Aftermath "Father" walk through (Part 2)

[SammyBeniuga]

hi spencer(again)last time you told me you got the electromatic cheap model,now i don't know.The only model what looks like your guitar is Gretsch Electromatic Pro Jet w/ Bigsby im sorry for disturbing you so much please leave a message if you got some time

[SammyBeniuga]

when i first saw this video i thought it was really from hillsong...you are a very good player

[missT0P]

@SammyBeniuga Yaa, same!! LOL

You're pro...keep it up ;)

[SammyBeniuga]

hey Spencer is this electromatic pro jet model?

[SpencerHirst]

@SammyBeniuga Electromatic cheep one!!!

[bondman00794]

Do you like the gretsch?

[SpencerHirst]

@bondman00794 Love em amazing tone for the price point! you need more gain on overdrives so i just have a tube screamer always on.

[rcav89]

Wow, you have some nice tone bro. I like the fact that you weren't using any boutique stuffs and hi end gretsch.

I dont mean that we, christian, shouldn't buy fancy stuffs but i am sad that many christian guitarist nowadays tend to buy expensive stuffs to replicate their favorite guitarist's tone and in some way trapped in hedonism.

Keep up the good work bro. Really inspiring! God bless

[JesusBurnsInMe]

@rcav89 to bad for us lefty's any decent guitar we want is high end.. I want a Gretcsh, I have to spend $1-3000 lol :) Its ok though :D

[rcav89]

@JesusBurnsInMe that's unfortunate. i think guitars makers must accommodate lefty guitar player need's more. I have a friend who have same problem with you. your reason and his are a good one, unlike some of my "hendroff wannabe" friends. LOL.

[SpencerHirst]

@JesusBurnsInMe Grab a Gretsch G5122 & string it upside down most people won't even know

[davidmwonga]

Hey, SWEET video man. You've got chops. What kind of camera are you using? And if you're using a different lens, what is it?? This video quality is immaculate!! :)

[SpencerHirst]

@davidmwonga cannon 5D

[alehajordan]

Congratulation !! Well done

[slipstreamsunny]

Can't believe you're using a Gretsch with a SOLID amp :S

[diapanna]

o jeah

[TheEnmanuel77]

muy buenos los tonos

[1chakde2]

this is really awesome. and i love your gretsch!

[val22jesusemais]

wow! wonderful!

[ideasnacoes]

sem comentarios, muito show....

[ferlinkoh]

Hear this song at the right moment, Father thank you for loving me.

[Jess715]

thanks for laying this out, we didn't have a bass player last sunday and I could pick out the riff but couldn't anchor it with the walk down bass line so it felt hollow and we didn't play it. Now I know it's just a simple drop D tune.  Thanks!

[izzyrocker89]

excellent video, what amplifier are u using for this?

[SpencerHirst]

@izzyrocker89 Crate solid state

[thexwork7]

you bend the strings abit too much ;)

[SpencerHirst]

@thexwork7 It's the exact same function as the mod delay hillsong uses, I do it manually with my hand instead of the tremelo bar through the whole song, I gives the player more control.

[thexwork7]

@SpencerHirst yeah i understand! Overall fanstastic play! :)) very smooth and effortless!

[mrkasko777]

@SpencerHirstI wonder what effect you use for this song

[PyAdrian]

@SpencerHirst I like it. I love a personal take on a song instead of simply copying the whole thing. Good job!

[andrewswatching]

@SpencerHirst i love your bending :) I do the same thing.

[pilot233a]

nicely done dude!  what pedals are u using for this?

[SpencerHirst]

@pilot233a ibanez ts9 tube screamer and a boss dd20 giga delay tape delay setting.

[LorenzoPratsmusic]

@SpencerHirst is your ts9 modified? or is it just the regular tube screamer? :D

[Davjd2003]

Thanks you, love it! It's nice to hear the guitar as lead instead of vocals for once. It's a nice twist... well done.

[Dayvison29]

Show de bola!

[underthesouthercross]

i have the same guitar, but i have all the bits from the Duo Jet, pick ups, and Bigby, but dude, awesome work, where did you get the tab from or did you learn it by ear?? also sounds your using are great

[SpencerHirst]

@underthesouthercross thanx man i just listened to it and picked out the parts best i could real quick

[29396]

That's great man!

I don't believe you're just using a TS9, DD20 and Crate haha... sounds WAYYY too good to be that setup :P

Is that a stock standard Pro Jet? It sounds sweeter than most of the ones I've tried... maybe it's the player- haha.

Keep rocking for God!

[SpencerHirst]

@29396 ha thanx for the comment yeah ive been really happy with the tone on my gretch, but other people who are usually play like a Gibson to fender or ibanez have a tough time adjusting to the "Touch" or bone tone, im lovin the dd20 with and doubling up ts9"s or gt500 with the duo jet sound like a dream. the neck has taken allot of work to get it set up proper but for the price point its great.

[diegoaguilera123]

nice guitar dude

[jogabonito15]

how do you like the electromatic pro jet? i felt like the neck felt kinda cheap but i love the gretsch tone

[SpencerHirst]

@jogabonito15 ive been really happy with the tone on my gretch, but other people who are usually play like a Gibson to fender or ibanez have a tough time adjusting to the "Touch" or bone tone, im lovin the dd20 with and doubling up ts9"s or gt500 with the duo jet sound like a dream. the neck has taken allot of work to get it set up proper but for the price point its great.

[jogabonito15]

@SpencerHirst yeah the price is great i've definitely been going back and forth from the pro jet and the les paul studio...i'm not made of money and can't afford 2k guitars. but i love the tone you're getting in the videos, even with a solid state practice amp.

[drummer4uva72894]

What kind of pedal board and amp are you using?

[SpencerHirst]

@drummer4uva72894 im using an ibanez ts9 with low gain, to give it the class A tube amp sound, and boss dd20 giga delay and just a crate practice amp

[ZachDRUMMOND]

Hold up I think you have one of the shapes wrong...listen through it again. You are really close.

[ZachDRUMMOND]

That's a sweet part. Nice vid.

[BeautyandtheBrush]

Love it! You're so talented!

[BeTheAwakened]

FREAKIN SWEET!!!

[davidguit1]

awesomeee bro!! keep doing this!!! this song is what my heart says about my FATHER!!! GOD BLESS U BROTHER!!
