Little Wing - Danelectro Guitar into a 12W Kustom Tube Amp

[xPsuedo]

it's jeopardy bro

[bluesvuk]

is that tube amp ?

[CptTractor]

Skilly little bastard !

Nice guitar, nice sound ang great and fun player !

Keep it weel +++

[johnnycu]

wow you have a true gift for music !

[1Ma9iN8tive]

You sir have been penalised for brutalising Little Wing...as punishment you are ordered to give me your guitar immediately to avoid bad juju funking up yo ass with voodoo ... muwah ah ah ah haaaaa

[TheRoughmen]

Cheap stuff - natural rock'n'roll.

[WantSomeSlaw]

Is it just me or does it look like a mixture of a Wilshire and a Les Paul? Either way, awesome guitar.

[berndosos]

ich könnte da stundenlang zuhören! super gespeilt!

[bluesderek]

The original chord progression of Little wing is:

Em / G / Am / Em / Bm7 (Bb5) / Am7 C / G F / C D / D

In the first verse, you replaced the Bm7-Bb5-Am7 bit with Em7-Ebm7-Dm7, and in verse two and three with B-Bb-A, neither version being very convincing. Of course, everybody is free to make up their own versions of songs, but in this case it does not sound like a conscious variation, but rather like you don't know how to play the song. In times of free chords and tabs on the net unnecessary

[albertobsn]

POOR JIMI

[Ariel23rus]

Typical american man.

[MrTubeyWoobey]

Perhaps that is not Little Wing , but is in fact 'Idddy Bidddy' Wing .

[jaqjaques]

not a bad act at all.

[Scrotemeister]

I'm fucking buying a Danelectro tomorrow!!! SOLD!

[tenzjoe]

vecchio tu non capirai le parole che ti sto scrivendo ma ricorda solo una cosa:

DIO PORCO LURIDO CANE MERDOSO CAGATO DA QUELLA LURIDA VACCA DELLA MADONNA YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

[MrMuddyBleach]

God I love Danos so much.

[piggy201]

Punk Wing let's go!!

[Carbonite2008]

I heard it doesn't respond too well to distortion, but it seems pretty sweet to me lol

[slpplexi1969]

@Carbonite2008 I guess you've never heard of Jimmy Page.

[TeleManMeSelf]

Sweet sweater

[ibazookajoe]

Was that supposed to be Little Wing?

[coball76]

you remind me of tom delonge

[scotplane]

O_o You just brought new life into Norwegian wood there. Well done.

[brokrguy]

Nothing rocks like a Dano and an argyle sweater...

Pretty nice tone, there.

[Ariel23rus]

А ты использовал перегруз на комбоусилителе, американец, или нет?

[henrytdsimmons]

I love how everyone has their own version of little wing. Only idiots copy hendrix exactly

[ox092]

hi, I noticed is the 1998 version better than the new reissues of these guitars?

[JakeIsKlever]

Isn't it good! Norwegian wood!

[Menikmatik]

Norwegian Wood! Little Wing was sick!

[dallasmckinley]

You did a nice job on this demo.  Thanks - keep playing!

[Nekroguitar]

I'm thinking of getting one of these for christmas, but I'm a bit worried about the wooden bridge, how can you adjust the intonation??? Or do you not need to because it can't change in the first place? That's if the guitar'sintonation is ok when it's made..

[bairdd7]

vefry nice... great job!

[drcarico]

This is what a demo should be.

[JacobHilbrich]

sounds nice!

[USAYeahYeahYeah]

norwegian wood!!!!



[ox092]

what a wicked guitar for such a low price.

[henrytdsimmons]

I like this guy, he gets to the point.

[KC5E]

Makes one wonder why anybody would buy a Fender, Gibson, Gretsch, Guild, etc. back in the day. However, nowadays the old Danelectro with all the trade-names they bore sell for as much or more the the aforementioned guitars. Great playing!

[supermans4l]

well. now that i have my sg and les pauls set up for my taste. this will be my single coil in my collection

[stevoe1000]

there is always something so great sounding about all these danelectro guitars...add a lilttle grit and it takes you right back to all kinds of past masters...

[klv400]

great vid!!!!!

[miznerowns]

norwegian wood! :D

[sergeramic]

nice gears! basically rocks!

[supermans4l]

can anybody tell me the riff he plays at the very beginning? or tab or something. im not really sure why but i like that little run alot

[vattenskallen]

@supermans4l norweigan wood, beatles i think

[MrBasementJams]

wow immidiately after you started playing i was like "III ONCE HAD A GIRL! OR SHOULD I SAY, SHE ONCE HAD ME!!"

[MCRsTheBlackParade]

Norwegian Wood sounded amazing.

[ArkansasGillum]

Man..All I use now is Kustom amps & p.a's..Luv em..Durable as heck..Sounds good dude..Rock on

[purplefluffcake]

haha norwegian wood sounded awesome

[FLEALEKE]

norwegian wood

[LeviMan2001]

This makes me sad that my dano has a warped neck. Ah well it was $40 used! Sweet!

[ade2064]

hey man, loving the jumper

[anycolouryouwant]

you seem very confident in your... playing... god knows why, that what the worst rendition of little wing i have ever heard

[JacobKilledBatman]

Stop this right now. You're making me want a Danelectro guitar.

[bramnokia]

@JacobKilledBatman already made me:)

[fiumax494]

I once had a girl or should i say she once had me..laalalalalaalalalalaalalal­alaa..

nice 2 hear that tune!

[brooscaar]

Nice guitar, Nice amp, Super playing! What where the settings for the amp?

[lespaul666999]

that danelectro is awesome and u play well but seriously that amp suks com on dude kustom with a K

[ponlm]

way too much overdrive for little wing, natural or not

[boneypart]

amp is junk. get a silverface Champ, now thats a great little amp! gawd what r u doing to Little Wing? jam on, cheers.

[samguitarmurphy]

norwegian wood! nice!

[rockerdude29]

ive got an itty bitty kustom 18w contender.theyre retarded great for the price.

[sgogiz1]

nice

[Dangerplan77]

The beatles norwegan wood. You can find it on the beatles 1962-1966 disk 2

[Ikapitanzurseei]

@Dangerplan77 More specifically Rubber Soul

[inseobkim4067]

what song was on the beginning? sounds great

[coachz44]

The Beatles "norwegian wood"

[nmcclure79]

Great sounding guitar. I almost bought one at a pawn shop for $199 USD a few years ago.

[david1952000]

There is a picture of Hendrix next to a gas station holding a Dano up.

[OscarCousin]

ITTTY BITTY KUSTTOM AMP

[ebower]

Amazing sound. Congrats.

[kleinebudde]

You play more than one song, right? Sounds like norwegian wood by the beatles in the beginning.

[bobert995]

@kleinebudde it does sound like that

[snakeweirdo]

It is :P

[overoath123]

how big are the frets on it?

[resoblues]

How to break your lease. Running with the wind.

[carlzard]

grats this might actually be the worst version of little wing on youtube. what an accomplishment.

[haloskater24]

nice accent

[anycolouryouwant]

your version of little wing made me laugh

[ganjaking187]

sounds like a fender jaguar, i want one lol

[KittyKatastrophe]

Dude, it's Andy Bernard from the Office! Go Nard DOG!

[slctdmbntwrx]

Ohhh a little norwegian wood....I like that sound indeed.

[ugotpimp]

not including the guitar player, the amp is probly 80% tone and the guitar just about 20%. imho

[stratocaster7219]

You remind of nard dog on the office.

[bluesboy19]

Can you write me the tab of your version of "Norwegian Wood" ? Thank you

[FingerLickinGravy67]

isnt that thing jus hybrid n got just 1 ax7 in da pre

[letshakehands]

where did you get your jumper aha? I like it, and lush guitar.

[Dayyyv]

Love my DC-59. But you really made me wish I had found a red one, yours looks stunning. Mine is a strange shade of purple, haven't seen anybody else with one the same as mine...wooden bridge and all.

[Brewmaster757]

wats de first ur playing?

not little wing, the one before that

[EskilRask]

i think it's norwegian wood by the beatles :D

[Davesax1965]

Well, I've got a Dano, and you've just convinced me to buy a Kustom ! :-) Thanks !

[walterroy]

it's so dirty sounding--- it's almost naughty.

[dustin11]

rofl "iitty bitty Kustom amp"

The Bird has Flown!

[Gibson0918]

Looks like page's guitar on white summer

Man I want one of those

[imperialpod]

It IS Page's guitar on White summer and Kashmir and a few others.

It was also Syd Barrett's on Pink Floyds first recordings. In fact, probably about 80% of famous rock guitarists have used one of these at some point.

The DC59 is one serious legend of a guitar, made even better by the fact that they cost nothing when compared to bigger names.

They're a very cheap guitar, always were, but they can go toe to toe with the big boys and, sometimes.............. win.

[snakeweirdo]

Even Jimi Hendrix when he was young used one.

[ben6495]

@snakeweirdo he never had a chance to get old

[snakeweirdo]

@ben6495 Correct, I should have said "kid".

[joriszsz]

@snakeweirdo Honestly Hendrix never really became "old"... but I know what you mean...

[k2snake]

awesome guitar, how much does it cost?

[theforsakenpiggies]

Danelectro guitars just kick butt, pretty much :D

[LesMike93]

Omg the Little Wing riff sounds bad...:-(

[mdpk1]

hey suck my dick, LesMike

[Tengent]

Love that melody you played at the beginning.. was the guitar in standard tuning?

[Timboh56]

it's the muthafucking beatles!!! come on how could you not recognize it

[Tengent]

I'm sorry I don't listen to much of The Beatles. :P

[Timboh56]

welll you freaking should it's on rubber soul it's called norwegian wood

[Metallicrazy]

NORWEGIAN WOOD

[ekserchina]

I don't think Danelectro guitars are made out of wood at all. As a matter of fact I played a couple of them today and all of them were made out of some kind of hard plastic. Not sure about the materials but defineatly not wood.

[Metallicrazy]

I'm referencing the song he was playin.

[zimzim7]

masonite i think. and maple on the inside.

[CarlosvsGodzilla]

its masonite and plywood (yikes!)

its devine how it sounds so good!

[imperialpod]

They are NOT plastic, they are made of ' MASONITE', which is in fact, chipboard to the rest of the world.

The fretboard is rosewood and I think the neck is maple, but there is NO plastic.

[snakeweirdo]

It would be amazing if there were plastic for to get a sound like that out of it.

[imperialpod]

Sure would.

[CubeableGame]

The Silvertone Danelectro 63 reissue is actually hollow plastic. Check it out.

[samguitarmurphy]

great song indeed

[robidone]

yeeeea! its very scandinavian sounding..its lovely

[zach14217]

is this guitar in cool copper or coral? im deciding what to get

[wisesatyr72]

You got a very good guitar sound out of that crappy amp

[A18xOnDaTube]

I have that amp myself they are pretty good amps for such a cheap price i got mine for about £60 new.

How well do the pickups take distortion?any buzzing at all?

[theartofshred]

he got a good guitar sound BECAUSE it's a good amp you fool.

it's not all about the guitar if you haven't noticed

[bohemian187]

With a nick like yours, I can't take your opinion on a bluesy-rockish guitar seriously.

We all know it's an affordable guitar, and it's not a solid body, that doesn't change the fact... it gets a great tone, very nice guitar and an excellent value!

[theartofshred]

I am a huge metalhead, yes, but when it comes to actual playing I steer away from that direction.

if you were to play the shittiest guitar in the world and then the best guitar in the world through the same amp, there would be a difference, sure, but it wouldn't be anywhere near the difference of playing a shitty amp and the best amp in the world through the same guitar.

[bohemian187]

I know, but that doesn´t change the fact that Danelectros sound great. I know they´re not great guitars, but they´re nice and sound awsome. And that doesn´t depend THAT MUCH on the amp, check out all the other danelectro videos on youtube.. all different amps, always the same characteristic sound.

[theartofshred]

actually it does depend that much on the amp.

you could adjust the amp to make the guitar sound like a les paul of some sort.

[snafutube]

couldn't disagree more, speaking from actual experience.

i own a late 60s strat & a mid 60s firebird ,,,, these guitars sound great through virtually any amp. i recently bought a cheapo danelectro baritone guitar & i love it, can't put it down it sounds so good!

[magocebolinha]

creppy.........

[zach14217]

does any one no were i can get this guitar in this color. i really want one. i saw one at guitar center and played it. it was awsome and only 250. i didnt have the money on me at the time when i went back in a week they sold it. fuck fuck fuck i am pissed and i really want one

[juankenon]

or you could try to get one of the newer Chinese reissues (with a slightly different setup) or troll ebay, the appear often enough. Probaby your cheapest bet.

These are great guitars but I am not sure if they are $500 great though.

[ohnoitsmarco]

1:48-1:52 is an homage to "Lets get away for awhile" By Brian Wilson on Pet Sounds. ! i love it! and I like your taste of music.

[CheckerTele]

Damn I wish you could still get them in that colour...

[A18xOnDaTube]

why not have a look for a used one? bonus is on the new 59's dont have stacked tone/volume knobs

[CheckerTele]

It's hard to find them. Nobody wants to let them go!

No harm in trying though... Nice playing. Kudos.

[Flingpingz]

Seems like it got nice sound, im thinking of buying one myself.

For you others who's curios what guitar this is its a DANELECTRO DE 59

[sportsduderockerman]

little wing is in e not a u need to play in the right key good job tho

[LeviMan2001]

He was playing awesomely in E, bud.

[abhinav333]

Little wind is in Bb

[LeviMan2001]

little winG is in Eb bud, listen to it (i'm refering to jimi's version at least cause its the origonal)

[Cougar9565]

I felt embarrassed watching this

[gyarugo86]

Me too =="

[thefdt]

can you tab that norweigan wood? brilliant version. ive ordered my dc59 today.

[zosoman21]

What is that caleed at the beginning or did you make it up?

[monstermitch58]

norwegian wood by the beetles

[capsaicinrain]

they sound good and all, they just feel so light and plastic

[mikabho]

sorry , which model of danelectro is??

i love this sound

[A18xOnDaTube]

Danelectro 59/DC59

[maisquisuije]

hi, what's the first song that you play?

[Alexizephyrmage9]

sounds pretty terrible...your playing is awesome though!

[rollstarmusic]

great sound!!great beatles!

[APoPSProductions]

beast

[RxJohnTNT]

how did you manage to get that cheap crap danelectro lip stick pick up guitar ( costs about a buck two eighty ) and a kustom amp ( the cheapest there is) to sound so good...

I am betting you are on heavy drugs... your hendrix was most excellent stay on those drugs .. you got massive potential but get a fender or gibson and a marshall as fast as you can .. your vocals are also quite good

try more drugs ...stay tuned

[iwantpinkeye101]

It's not always about having better equipment. rather than losing the soul of the music

[pattymccarthy5]

sweet just watched this to find out what these danelectros sound like and got the pleasure of Norwegian Wood too :) Thanks.

[TechnoLife120]

can any1 tell me which model of danelectro is the 1 that jimmy page owns?

[knighton111]

dc 59

[musicman9901]

just bought one today and am very pleased with it and the great sound i can get out of it, nice beatles cover btw

[menga111]

i gotta get me one of themz! nice playing

[tjsr21]

Norwegian wood!!

[alexledzepguy]

I never knew the 12W Kustoms were tube driven... I cranked one up to 10 once and found it had a beautiful blooming distortion to it. Great amps.

[grubetube22]

nice man... SEND ME THE TABS 4 NOrWEGIAN WOOD!!!! i like tha way u ply it... but when u do little wing bond hang on the D like that it doesnt sound as fluid....

[54spiritedwill54]

Great playing! I'm thinking of buying one

[kandrous]

[knmjoy]

Wow. The Mensa society has sent someone. Welcome!

[ATOMICBIGFOOT2]

Kinda looks like mine,it was gold too,but with only one pickup.Cool Dan,y'all come by check mine out,maybe someone might know what year model it is.

[guerillapony]

Dude, where did you get that guitar?

[knmjoy]

I actually bought it new in 1997 (?) ... and I have had it ever since ... but i sold it on Ebay. They are out there, just keep looking!

[lighteningboy]

I want your guitar.

[knmjoy]

too late ... I sold it on Ebay a while ago. But look out ... they are out there.

[kgrambeau]

the guitar looks and sounds great! but iv never heard little wing played so bad in my life

[420allday69]

he reminds me of andy from the office.

[knmjoy]

exactly the look I was going for. ;-)
