Vox Guitar Organ Demo

[honestowlmusic]

Does any body else think this has "Black Keys" written all over it?

[Paddymcwhoop]

That's God damn amazing! I thought my Burns artiste was mad!

[PandaWayfarer]

Really love it when you played Interstellar Overdrive by Pink Floyd at around 3.45 great job! And a very great guitar

[moffat691]

3;50 Psychotic Surf Music

[StarInvasion]

You shouldnt have corrected yourself when you said "Guitorgan", I want to get myself one of these and I will call it that!

[kyleketchemonia]

that buzz is really distracting

[hydraIX]

Very Fascinating...Interstellar Overdrive !!!

[gulnare69]

3.45: DEATHGRIPS! haha

[will30x]

amazing instrument

[TurnerGuitarStudio1]

I'm not one to buy things because of a brand name, or because its vintage, or well known, or someone famous played it. however, if i ever found one of these in good condition i'd probably buy it and just hang it on the wall on of my guitar store to show people. cause that's fricken cool i think! pretty useless with the new modeling technology out these days, and I can play organ so its also less useful. but still sweet! thanks for the video dude.

[weibernipple]

Incense and Peppermints, a tye-dyed shirt, headband and sandals. There, now we've got the vibe.

[ThePoopsnak]

i hate it........i love it........

[raffafa]

Long live the guitorgan!

[William6likes6Rock]

I would play the SHIT out of that

[Caveira138]

Interstelar overdrive!!!

[Caveira138]

the organ sound would be cool for a solo but you could just use like a digitech whammy like jack white

[n3ssaya00]

You're a bit out of tune :D

[Parcival01]

It's silly, but it was experimental. I played one once when I was a college freshman, about May of 1971, after Vox had already sold out to Fender. I wish I had one now. It'd be worth a fortune to collectors.

[javiceres]

I lov it !!

[ImmaculateLamp]

seems like something Jack White would play.

[perfuzz]

You've got quite a hum going, time for a serious cap-job. Is that a Bassman by the way. Fun video!!!

[WhitstableWilliams]

@fazialpalmierung'I think'! That's the trouble, for all it's obvious faults there's something unique about this instrument's sound that would be hard to replicate. It would be great for recording. Maybe once or twice. Probably horrendous to play live...

[Syntox]

SUPER fucking cool.

[HEARTHEANGELSVOICES]

NICE ANNOYING HUM COMING OFF THE FENDER AMP.

[Whicol2]

@HEARTHEANGELSVOICES Nice annoying caps lock.

[WhitstableWilliams]

@fazialpalmierung I'd love to know which pedals...!

[lukuntri]

i love that pink floyd song

[hunterbrinson]

That guitar is sweet.

[SgtZaqq]

i got a head ache

[zimonslot]

skip to 2:05 to get to the action.

[RaygunShaun]

Clearly, everyone circle jerking over the fantasy of having Jack White mash his cock on this instrument has never heard of the Dead Weather. Check out "Hang You From The Heavens", or their rendition of "Are Friends Electric?". Dean Fertita is a musical sorcerer.

[bbknux1]

I like the Interstellar Overdrive bit you threw in. :D

[tickntimebombfun]

fuuuuuuuuck ive never been more in love with a guitar

[JSierra6177]

LESS TALKY MORE PLAY-E

[beyondalohas]

fun guitar, but way too busy with the knobs, interesting

[kidcalabria]

Vox made some great instruments until 1970: the Vox Phantom & Teardrop guitars, the Vox Continental organ (first portable electric organ). Vox designed the Teardrop for Brian Jones. The Velvet Underground were the first US band to have Vox sponsorship. Brian Jones in New York visited Andy Warhol's Factory & introduced Nico to them. The other Velvets asked John Cale ('cause he's Welsh) to make friends with Brian Jones

Cale: The Vox guitar/organ... does it work?

Jones: No

End of conversation

[PeoplePowerSince69]

MY DREAM INSTRUMENT

[muzboz]

Jeez, has a few problems, mate! I'll give you $40 for it. :-)

Take it clean off ya hands.

(So jealous!)

[Whicol2]

@fazialpalmierung Even if you could....that doesn't mean ya should, you know?

There is novelty and value in the primitive way things were done 45 years ago. If that don't make sense to ya, have fun with your pedalboard and digital fun. The rest of us "get it." =)

[TheZeroSongster]

@Whicol2 yeah... i would really enjoy a reissue... i mean you can fulfill the gap of being a loner guitarrist to do this bi-instrumental sound playing just one.... get your floor tomb and hi hat, and you're one man's band =)

[WykydWaze]

I say, put a Vox wah and maybe a little chorus on the organ out-put + the guitar into like a Boogie Triple Rectifier = Metal Mayhem Who cares how it looks that gives me all kinds of ideas; looks are only important to people who confuse 'looks cool' with 'is cool' one is not a prerequisite of the other.

[pelusonpuntocom]

Quei 50 o 60 Hz, e le loro armoniche hanno rovinato il tuo video.

[Socioistic]

Why can't you shut up about Jack White? 

[mrkillitoss]

hagström did this to

[VicSoxUK]

One on ebay right now, £1,500. 20 minutes left...

[powerleg]

SO COOL

[rockbandmidi]

Holy shit, I had the very same thought immediately that jack white needs one of these.. This thing is amazing. Great in depth demo was very curious thanks!

[SwampDaddy7]

Jack White should get one of these. Would love to see him bash the hell outta one of these to make a pretty good sound. Great idea the guitar organ!

[RussianThickness1]

@SwampDaddy7 thats what i was thinking!

[jandean61]

nice ! but I wouldnt pay more than 2000.00 U.S for one...unless Anton Newcombe played it.

[Dangarus1]

It seems like an amazing idea, combining a phantom and the vox continental...just seems like there's too much going on, if that makes any sense though. Proper far out instrument!

[chadla1]

i need one!!! where did you get it and where can i get one

[mothercubehead]

AMAZING, I guess this guitar was brought by UFO to planet earth!! Where can I get one? Thanks for playing Interstellar Overdrive! Imagine Syd playing on this. Great! VOX rules.

[Whicol2]

@mothercubehead Thanks! Good luck finding one, they are super rare......and even if you did, I wouldn't reccomend paying thousands for it either. Cool factor is all they have going for them. Mine went to Japan when I sold it...

[Sidneyirvinggrosberg]

@mothercubehead Your band rules.

[troykeenanguitar]

What song are you playing at 3:45?

[Whicol2]

@troykeenanguitar it's the main riff from Pink Floyd's "Interstellar Overdrive"

[KramerBassFan]

Superb video, thanks!

[Desdemona202]

lol guitorgan

[zbaby82]

Kind of reminds me of the surf guitar era. It definitely has the 60s sound to it.

[musimundos2008]

Great men! love vox and effects, i have an Ultrasonic and is awesome.

Cheers!

[mewrth]

The contact noise may be solved by using flatwound strings. Thanks for putting this up man! 

[Whicol2]

@mewrth

Right on, thanks. I already sold the guitar anyways (looks cool, but loses to the Guitorgan for practicality).
