It sounds like you have very very low action
Thanks for the info. The action on your guitar seems much lower than on my guitars. I"m sure my frets could all use leveling because there isn't a one I can lower substantially without causing problems in one place or another…
Here ill save you all ten minutes, the answer is turn the volume down a little and the tone down a lot. done.
Mumbling inaudible.
How beautiful. At one point it just sounded like an acoustic archtop. Can this tone be achieved on a strat?Thanks
Although I do love the sound of a hollow body, I think the jazz tone obtained from a Telecaster is far more interesting than on a regular arch top. For me, the usual jazz arch tops are abit predictable and possibly many jazz guitarists roll off far too much treble causing the sound to be dull, boring. Bickert, Greene, even Gatton, using quite a bit of sustain, on his CD "'Relentless" show us how a Tele can fuse into jazz.
I have a telecaster. You talk for most of the video without showing. You lost my interest. You are a good player and you know what you’re talking about. I think you should do a demonstration closer to the beginning of the video so that many of your viewers will keep watching.
Musicians!
Don’t be surprised by the fact that many Jazz musicians play a Telecaster Guitar as it is a JAZZ guitar!
Nice vid — sounds great!
If Charlie Christian had lived, the bland, unexciting " jazz guitar tone" would have become redundant. Indeed, the so-called "jazz guitar tone" worked against the guitar being taken seriously by general jazz fans. The traditional "jazz tone" does not fare well when juxtapositioned with horns. Again, Charlie was looking for a harder even distorted tone. He knew that he had to compete with the horns, and not just sound like their insipid. poor relative. On record, I've heard guitar players – on many occasions -take a solo after a sax and it sounds plain embarrassing.
Hi! What model of tele are you playing? Thanks.
Mumble mubmle mumble, voice needs a compressor it's up and down mumble.
As someone with one guitar – a solid body electric – this was incredibly helpful Chris. Many thanks mate!!!!!!
You did a lot of speculating and fidgeting with the switches but at the end of the day you demonstrated that you cannot get a good jazz tone from a tele.It's not designed for jazz- it is a rockabilly guitar, that's where it lives, that's where it belongs.
Which tele is this?
Would possibly add. Listen to Ed Bickert. Turn volume way down snd amp up. Obviously roll off tone control guitar and amp options. Adjust pu height. Use the pick upside down and an angle. And whatever gauge one uses – inc the gauge a bit on the high e. Lastly. Dunlop prime tone jazz 3 xl sculpted picks- agree. Rarely ever use anything else. Expensive- learn … not to misplace. Nice video.
odd… saying Americans insist on pronouncing it incorrectly (some do i’ll give you that) while playing American music, on an American guitar with American strings ????
Great video. I fall in love with my tele again.
Sorry my friend ¿Wich pick we use? Thank you ????????
Great tips and I really dug your sound! I like using the tone knob on my guitar but I never liked when people turn down the tone all the way and get a muffled blob of sound 🙂
Is a great vídeo, thank you! You didn't talk about volume an tone of the guitar. What do you say about that? Thank you again!????
thanks man, just what i was looking for
Sorry, your explanation is very confusing. You do not clearly explain what is expected of this video.
