Fender David Gilmour Relic Stratocaster - Demo / Overview With Jamie Humphries iGuitar Mag Feature

[anirban747]

Demo fail!! Only David Gilmour can correctly demo this guitar.

[Lastaccountgothacked]

Blah blah, not knowing what the switch does blah blah. Don't really care listen to that tone! TONE TONE TONE!!! wow.

[javierf55]

Hello Jamie, you are great with Dave's music. I've got your Lick Library DVD of Pink Floyd which is great to follow and learn.

[bernamen2]

damn, its expensive...

can you buy this with your soul?

[metallica3604]

are you a sister comany of licklibrary??

[iguitarmag]

@metallica3604 Hi metallica3604 , we are a sister company of Licklibrary yes!

[shredmaster100]

i think the interviewer needs to read the black strat book because it seems that he knows nothing about the guitar and if i had the money to buy the guitar id buy it new and not relicked because over years of playing it will naturally become relicked which is better than the artificial way

[conrad2001]

this guy is an idiot. the switch turns the bridge pickup on in all combos.

[Darryld1]

This has to be the most unprofessional review of any guitar I have ever seen. The reviewer has done us all a great disservice by not doing ANY homework or making any attempt to learn anything about the specifics of this guitar. You don't have to be a Pink Floyd addict to find out even the basics about either of the Fender DGs. Since when was a toggle switch "some kind of a mid boost"? Please remove this video and get someone who gives a toss about guitars and proper marketing to do another.

[Sadamattas]

Very unimpressed with this video overview. He does not know anything about the guitar at all, even does not know what the extra switch does or that there had been a Kahler trem in there. There are no comments AT ALL about how the guitar plays, or feels and he has made NO effort at all to get a Gilmour tone. A complete waste of time and has put me right off this guy .. and Guitar mag if this is their level of reviewing. In fact he has an air of dislike towards the guitar right off the bat.

[skunkape2]

Jimi's Monterey Strat and Gilmour's Black Strat are the coolest Strats in history

[Foodie88]

Lol the reviewer doesn't really know what he's talking about. That little switch is for putting the bridge and the neck pickup together, and that routing behind the trem bridge is a leftover from the Kahler trem that was installed at some point and later removed..

[Scorpionas360]

I've never enjoyed a guitar magazine so much.. Great job :)

[mistersnaredrum]

an overview based on pretty much no research... impressive :o)

[112358miau]

@Mamertum345 With the same settings it would be the same. It's on the fingers

[Mamertum345]

@112358miau - not at all...I think that he's able to play gilmourish style, sort of. However, as I said before, the settings he used in the video are horrible. Too much distortion.... No delay and above all, no flanger at all. Thus, the logical conclusion is that he has no clue on how to get the DG Sound out of his equipment.

[Sledr1994]

@Mamertum345 Well you can't have a "Dave sound" only using an amp and a guitar. But the problem is not this one and even the setting doesen't count. Is the guitarist that doesn't work!

[123456jdude]

for some reason i didnt belive that relics could sound like the orginal guitar but after this it changed my mind it sounds amazing

[Bellorco]

Where i can find this backing track please?

[1996Prashant]

wow it has a really bright tone

[KInggomez64]

i really like the magazine

[ashatan69]

The guy in the vid actually slagged off this guitar on his facebook page!

[TUUK2006]

I don't trust any review when the reviewer says "this things seems to be...". Not exactly done their homework if they don't even know the basic functionality of the thing they're reviewing.

[tpmbe]

great tone , I remember you playing in Ozzy Pink Floyd... I love your lessons in Lick library as well , your a great tutor !

Cheers !!

[tichmen]

what gauge of strings are you using on that strat

[iguitarmag]

@tichmen Jamies currently recording for the Issue 2 of iGuitarMag when hes out of filming will ask him see if he remembers and will get back to you! Let us know your thoughts on the rest of the mag - be great to get some feedback!

[crisDAwog]

@iguitarmag i personanly love the mag its very user friendly and the reviews are extremly in depth the articles are interesting all round great magazine

[wolfenstien1000]

@tichmen i think their 10s, thats what dave uses and he has his own line of sig strings for about£4

[calumsherwood]

not a big an of the relicing but it is still a beautiful guitar and it sounds fantastic and that shortend whammy is a genius invention

[iguitarmag]

@calumsherwood Very neat!

[TEMPA01]

Nice playing Jamie! Could listen to you play all day...
