Fretless electric Guitar

[adoviccc]

who is he i havent listened such a music

[sirhotTR]

@adoviccc ...ERKAN OGUR 

[cmjpgreen]

Touches the soul

[SitarKnight]

Anyone know the name of this song?

[tapkae]

SO this is where Mike Watson got his fretless/E-bow idea from?

[mathewrileymusic]

whoa good thing this guy busted out his double neck guitar for this. this song that he plays on exactly one string. the. entire. time.

[DuochromeFilms]

I wish I could see a video of Erkan playing that heavily modified Gibson SG model he was shown with back in the early 90's in Guitar Player Magazine.

[alisercan]

@DuochromeFilms Do you keep that magazine or can you find and scan it, please ?I was searching for that magazine (the article you're talking about is volume 25 no 9 on 1991).

[DuochromeFilms]

@alisercan not sure if I still have it. It was such a cool looking instrument. I cut it out of the mag and taped it to my wall. I took all those down and put them into folders when I moved. I might still have it. I'll do a look.

[alisercan]

@DuochromeFilms That's very kind of you. Now I'm more curious about it :)

[Mistercharming]

thumbs up if you thought that guy was Weird Al.

[bezowashere]

I wish there was any app about fretless guitar and e bow in app store

[Deathmetalking95]

what chords did the guy with the acoustic guitar play?

[Deathmetalking95]

what song is this?

[CoachG1000]

This doesn't sound good.

Music should sound good.

[esraretin]

@CoachG1000 yes for this its true but check it please watch?v=5UpAyna6vDo

[bohongtw]

@CoachG1000 yeaah u r the standard to determine which music is good or bad right , if u think bad than music is bad so it s not music

[gannonsamuel]

@CoachG1000 What about it doesnt sound good?

[fryBASS]

@CoachG1000 it's just a matter of opinion. and music does not have to sound good.

[graynovskima]

his electric has way too much volume/feedback compared to the other guitar - i mean the volumes are not balanced.

although it sounds awesome like some chinese violen or somehting.

[callmetomorrow1979]

I invented the piano key necktie!...I invented it!!

[oasislock]

I want this double-neck guitar!! Very good and different sound

[emergence999]

its Weird Al Yankovic and Frasier Jamming!!

[esraretin]

please write on search bar ''erkan ogur dünya'' and see his real talent

[xzotic92]

dude this is becoming my best music i'm listening to it everyday and this is like waat the 5 comment i leave here

[Irideallamawithtoast]

I couldnt help but notice the acoustic guitar player looks alot like Jack Nicolson...

[Macsk8ing]

Who needs to waste breath when you have these Fretless wonders???

[Hoopermazing]

violinists (with an "s") rather...

[Hoopermazing]

Why do guys with fretless guitars always play this kind of caterwauling bullshit? Violinist have no problem playing real music without frets!

[Atalay]

Erkan Ogur is very talented artist, musician, songwriter. Guys you dont know anything about that guy, so just watch his other videos too

[Nidaime299]

toni iommi?

[xzotic92]

i cant get enough of it now ...

its soo fucking great

[flyingwords1]

You bunch of fools... Saw this guy in Istanbull! One of the most talented musician I have ever seen. Check his turkish folk stuff and eat your words. Sign of the time that looks and nationality will stop a genius being know!

[CroissantOrange]

Sounds like some cheap flute or smother lap steel. No point in playing modified instrument if you just make it sound like some other instrument.

[Dime7]

1:15 ha ha ha ha

[basshasan]

@Dime7 what?

[Greatscott0420]

wailord fainted

[brooklynstudio]

@Greatscott0420 OH best comment lmao

[hip142]

[mrussum1]

[GregDrayGregDray]

I hope they killed it at the end of the song to put it out of its misery! HA HA

[SqiroS22]

@GregDrayGregDray xaxaxa man what a comment!!!

[kodfod]

everyone just notice that erkan ogur is the legend on earth

 just removing the frets is fair enough to be good

but playing awesome without frets... just makes someone a legend

[pimelodella]

leave the whales alooooone

[SitarKnight]

So beautiful, the emotion behind it, could make one cry.

[GregDrayGregDray]

@SitarKnight It actually makes me want to laugh! ha ha ho ho he he hah hah

[jcoua01138028]

[MitchTenderness]

@jcoua01138028 I think he's got an E-Bow

[GNRCARLO]

it is an e-bow...sounds like a whale song

[thenew22]

I can only imagine how that sounded live..

[gip13g]

i need that guitar. where can i get one

[brooklynstudio]

its not very pleasing to the ear, probably the damned e-bow. it just doesnt sound good here.

[TechSmack]

i didnt know weird al was a whale hunter

[keowtor]

one of the worst terror music coming from toorkey, garbage sounds.

[YorkeKin]

gosh how the hell he guides himself through the arm without frets/?

excelent instrumentist

[Edor12345]

poor whale...

[gkidcj]

@Edor12345 XDDDDDDDDDD maan you made me laugh lol

[esraretin]

@Edor12345 hahahahaha

[AXmichigan]

@Edor12345 the most amazing response to any video, ever.

[xFaIIenAngel]

@Edor12345 where did you get the idea... oh wait lmfao.

[vroei]

Great tune! e-bow is cool :)

[MetalKael]

you are idiots... it's a very interesting, innovative and relaxing piece of music!!

[Wiggin992]

@MetalKael It would be, yes. But it sounds like it was recorded on a 30-year-old tape lol.

[klazzera]

@Wiggin992

In fact, yes it is. Maybe older than 30.

[honandali]

@keowtor and tajmenn:

Nobody expects you to understand the depth of this kind of music with your tiny brain. So you do cut spreading hate if you don't produce any kind of beauty in this world. Try to understand the music or anything in life, then maybe, the stains and prejudices in your soul can wash out.

drunkmanov sana katılıyorum dostum.

[keowtor]

Its pretty depressing to listen to this useless piece of garbage.

[BaxorUpGreat]

What is that gadget-mediator he's keeping in his his right hand while producing sounds?

[bhfam]

@BaxorUpGreat an ebow

[CaptainFlint75]

OMG O_O

Are they depressive?

[keowtor]

sounds more like the garbage truck from Turkey breaking down...terrible, total rubbish.

[tajmenn]

@keowtor

[awfulguitarplucker]

@baldheadedjohn hey,thats the way he rolls,yo!

[AndrewStergiou]

@baldheadedjohn You sound like typical nasty ass punk ass low life representing every other bitch ass commercial prostitute selling themselves based on the shallow depths of American ignorance as if whores are not a dime a dozen: As regarding EBOW and Mullet I never had a Mullet haircut Chris Stein from Blondie on occasion used an EBOW making more money than you will ever see, this clip 4 TRT TV is old

where musicians are treated better than American musicians who want to be WHORES.

[Kdoza]

[e2kk]

[ilikezappa]

eeeeeuw dont like it it sounds like a dog howling coz you shut it in the garage

[Joe2758]

no one else thinks his intonation sucks...?

[WavesOfThought]

Actually his intonation is pretty good, because he is playing maqams and maqams have some notes that are not in 12 tone equal temperament system; so, he plays the exact notes that he wants to play.

[Otantikyaratik]

Bana Seni Gerek Seni...

[5stringgod]

aaa  re klarinaaaaaaa

[DonBallin]

[kolibasili007]

[000021864]

Pretty weird sound, I don´t know what to think about this. Perhaps a new style of sad music...

[gingerleyham]

sounds shit on this recording! but i bet its good normally

[klazzera]

i think, that sounds great even with this quality

[callmethebeast01]

this video at the begining of 1980´s and that time Turkey had only one tv! and this guitar was the first fretless guitar in the world! and he is great musiction!realy! l love it!

[Kaptan2005]

Arkadasim bu gitar'in dünyadaki ilk perdesiz gitar oldugunu nereden cikardin? Elin yabancilarina kendimizi övmeye, kafadan atacak kadar muhtacmiyiz? Perdesiz gitar 1970lerde bile kullaniliyordu...

[callmethebeast01]

ilk perdesiz ELSYSTEM gitar dedim! Klasik demedim! arasindan fark var!! Saygılar

[rbx22]

haklisin gitar sanati dünyada cok meshur oldugu icin bunu kimse bilemez ama ingliz wikisine bakarsan erkan ogur ilk olanlardan söylenior

bu arada orayi hemen bi edit yapmislar (turkish)

yane adamin profili müzigi önemli degil

turkish turkish !!! :D

[barisgurkann]

evet perdesiz gitar 1970lerde kullanılıyordu fakat kullanılan gitarlar bu videoda olduğu gibi elektro idiler. Erkan Oğur ilk perdesiz klasik gitar kullanan sanatçıdır. belki kafadan atmak acınası bir hareket olabilir, fakat kendi tarihini bilmeyip, övünülecek yanlarını görmemek daha acınası bir davranıştır.

[Kaptan2005]

@barisgurkann

Sadece Elektro verziyonu kullanilmiyordu, ayni zamanda akustik olani da (mesela Frank Zappa). Arkadasin yorumunu tekrar oku "this guitar was the first fretless guitar in the world"...elektrik gitari birak adam komple Perdesiz sistemi Erkan Ogur'a mal ediyor. Erkan Ogur benim icin dünya capinda bir sanatci ve kendisi cok mütevazi. Kullandigi Perdesiz Gitar'i Türk Müzigini yorumlamaktan dogan ihtiyaci icin icat etmistir, ama bu ilk Perdesiz Gitar degildir.

[Kaptan2005]

@barisgurkann

Elin Yabancilari ne basarilar elde ediyorlar, oyunculari Oscar kazaniyor, Sporda büyük basarilar kazaniyorlar, ve bilim dallarinda devrimler gerceklestiriyorlar. Bizim övünüleceklerimiz zaten Atatürk ile birlikte Mezara gitti. Hicbir yeni icraat yok...ben Almanya'da yasiyorum ve Almanlar dünyada bircok konuda söz sahibi, onlar bile bukadar övünmüyorlar, övündükleri seylerde kimsenin inkar edemeyecegi seyler. Ho$ onlarin da tarihleri utanc verici o ayri...

[canimulkem]

such a beautiful music

It is taken from Yunus Emre "bana seni gerek seni"

Would you please upload with a better quality of sound.

Thanks for sharing

[philipsalvador]

i want one of theesseee

[corkskrewclubhouse93]

wierd al?

[cloudbuster66]

sounds like a whale wierd eh

[thenew22]

wow.

I can only imagine what that sounded like live

[mabitazan]

sounds more like a distorted violin

[Morpheusneon]

the sound is bad, sadly, but the real song is fine.

[hacibaba00]

thats normal...

there were only one tv channel in turkey at 80s. :)

[phantomofguilt]

I really like this, the tone of the guitar is great, i know it's mainly because of the e-bow, however the fact that he's using a fretless guitar allows him to keep the notes running with no attack from the frets! out of tune he may be, ever so slightly.

did you notice that the whole lead part is played on just the G-string.

[Crimee]

@phantomofguilt not even one note was out of tune, he plays accurate microtones very common in turkish music. so it is your ears that are not used to hearing those because your western ears only accept whole and half notes, not quarter, 8th and 16th which he plays.

[temismailiz]

erkan oğur bir efsanedir dünyada herkes bilsin

[blowoffsorrow]

Sounds like a flute

[remoman]

I bet her rips on the zurna as well!

[thankyouherbie]

[TheCrusify]

[thankyouherbie]

this is awesome! such a unique sound!

[cryptoownsu]

Sounds like a big fart

[rorboo]

haha yeah actually xDDD

[orjane]

I would like playing Pantera on a fretless guitar like that!

[KreatorOfDeath1985]

haha dont even dream fretless guitars are horible

[drunkmanov]

A terrorist could not compose such a great masterpiece you fucking ignorant piece of shit. KingOrgasmusTwo you have no idea what a terrorist means. stop accusing muslims.

Adamı dinden imandan çıkarmayın lan götoşlar.

[14SpawnOfThor88]

[youngandinsane]

[dilbert103]

[kkdav1]

this sounds like a whale slowly dying a painful death! lol

[kkdav1]

by that i mean the audio quality, probably because this video is so dated

[hacibaba00]

[ILikeJuice]

Looks like an ebow to me. They're about $80.
