[RicardCastro]

Budda Superdrive 80! _/\_

[fishtiti]

KICK ASS! :D

[afrodisiac1984]

oh wait didnt realise you were a shop

[s2khawk]

a thousand thanks for actually tuning the guitar, playing well, and choosing sweet gear--sadly this is a fine rarity on the tube for you

[docholiday747]

Great tone. I want one.

[Electricstrings08]

Im thinking of getting a sunburst USA tele.  I likt that twang sound. I have the 30 Series. Its kind hard to get the soudn you want form these kind of amps. Because thay dont have reverb.

[LPFan3118]

Great job!

Please let me know what is the first song on the video?

[gitartrond]

Just improvising, but I guess the idea for the licks may be stolen from some Albert Lee stuff.

[TimTehPilot]

@gitartrond It sounded like Michael Buble's Everything for a second

[entropiaan]

Sounds like Velvet Revolver - Last Fight too i guess

[parosite]

it that a top loading strung guitar

[YARBLES1969]

I just recently got my first Esquire (custom shop top bound 50's heavy relic with Billy Gibbons pearly gates esquire pup) and am starting to dig its simplicity. I'd like to learn some chicken' pickin', although this guitar rocks like yours on the Budda. What's a good place to learn? Where di you learn?

[jonny1251]

yess!!!

[florez411]

Damn man it looks like you at the amp section of a Guitar Center, All i Have is a VOX AC30 and a Marshall MG Series amp

[dhanurdara]

wow..nice tone bro, can u post another vid with strat?

[rocco777777]

hi, really nice playing and sound, man. so what amp are you using? and from what series does your esquire with the modified front pup sound come? peace.

[gitartrond]

I use the clean channel of a Budda Superdrive 80 and a Fender Esquire Custom Shop LTD edition

[florez411]

How much does a custom shop Esquire cost.

[gitartrond]

I guess you can get them from appx. $ 2.500 and up

[Epiphonefan]

that budda is nice:D

[ajs7698]

You seem to really enjoy the tones your getting out of this guitar and amp ( by the look on your face )....very nice playing and tone, I dig it...you sound great on the telecaster...

[lol5150lol]

Telecasters are great rockin' guitars.. i had one before but i had to sell it when my car broke down :(

[jakesnake45]

it only has one pickup?? but it sounds awesome

[stratcat3142]

Great tones

[DangerousBastard]

Yep, the Esquire is a Tele with one pickup and some different switching options... If its good enough for Jeff Beck, its good enough for anyone! Awesome sounds BTW!

[maclellan3]

hey, is there a difference between telecaster and esquire? and does it play as well as the telecaster, or is it a lower level guitar like epiphone?

[funktionalism]

No, the Esquire was Leo Fender's original attempt at the Telecaster unless I'm mistaken. It's effectively a Tele without a neck pickup, but there are probably some other differences I'm not too sure on.

To the video, this amp is gorgeous, but a $2,000 price tag (No idea how much it would cost in England either) says it's a buy for my later life. Great vid.

[maclellan3]

oh ok thanks

[JohnnyFriendly]

It's not just the lack of neck pickup that's different but also the wiring. The front position is the pickup with the tone rolled down (bassy, muddy sound), the middle position functions like the rear position on a standard tele and the rear position of an esquire bypasses the tone control entirely (ultra-trebly sound).

[gitartrond]

Well, on this one, the front switch-position is not that "muddy". A smaller cap is used, so you'll get a kind of mid-boost feeling instead of the bassy sound. It's great!

[Macmax7077]

what are your settings please

[gitartrond]

low master, bass max, mid 11 o'clock, treble about noon, volume on max.

[Macmax7077]

y CAN'T BELIEVE IT, i did just set my amp with the bass at 2 o'clock, the mids almost at noon and the treble at 11:30 lasy week and man, it sounds great with my Am Std with Anderson pups

[likiepie]

is that a made in mexico esquire?

[gitartrond]

No, this is a 1959 Esquire® Relic® LTD

The Fender Custom Shop's 1959 Esquire Relic LTD guitar is featured in a Team-built limited run of 100 instruments.

Its two-piece premium ash body has a gold nitrocellulose lacquer finish; the late-'50s C-shaped maple neck has a light-tint laquer finish. '63 custom Telecaster bridge pickup. The guitar has been given "Relic" treatment—built to show years of natural wear and tear; with nicks, scratches, worn finish, rusty hardware and aged plastic parts.

Herlig lyd :)

[prompen3]

rett og slett fantastisk lyd!

[cornybob123]

Hey great sound....where did you buy the shoes?

[gitartrond]

Yeah, it sounds great. I bought the shoes in my local shoe-store, across the street from my shop. The label says:Rockport apm25921 8w

Made in Vietnam, leather upper balance Man made... I use them every day, so they are slightly "smelly", but good walking shoes!

[vanmaiden08]

Ha ha ha dude that's gotta be one of the gayest comments I've seen while browsing youtube guitar videos.

[gitartrond]

Well, to be honest, I'm not really into shoes. But I feel I need to take comments seriously, hehe

[CuzenicLionel]

whaow ;-)what a sound!

[Antestor]

This was the clean channel? It must have been loud as heck.

[gitartrond]

t is rather loud, but this one has a "working master volume" allowing you to open up your sound, but still have a descent volume....

[Antestor]

i see. what were the settings?

[gitartrond]

About this: channel volume on full, master down to an "eatable level", Bass full, mid like 11 o'clock, treble 1 o'clock.

[ogardsveien]

his guitarshop is in norway, bekkestua.

[sp33dnz]

Is there another pickup under where the neck pickup is supposed to be (on a tele)? Or is it just the bridge pickup?

[gitartrond]

It's just the pickup you can see..

[koksila23]

where did u find guitar?

[gitartrond]

This is a guitar off the wall of my shop.

[koksila23]
