beatiful tone francisco !!
Thank you for your kind comment.

nice man !
Thank you man.
Beautiful music can come from the most random corners. This is what I have a phone for man. Amazing
Thank you so much for your king comment, very much appreciated.
Man I would love to be able to noodle like this, I'd never stop haha you're really good. I heard some jazzy stuff in there and wanted to recommend a song that you might like, it's called By Far and Away by Intervals. There's some really cool stuff happening in that song, I think you'd appreciate it
Thank you for your kind words, very much appreciated.
Awesome🎉🎉
What a lovely guitar man and nice playing also 👍🏻
Thank you for your kind comment Patrick, very much appreciated.
❤ parabéns! Som belíssimo
Obrigado Kleyton.
Love the Tele. Nice sound man. Play on…
Thank you for your kind comment.
I find it much harder to play the tele, but once you dig into it, it gives back a lot more.
@@thomasdemartino6109I don’t feel it’s necessarily harder but I agree you get more from it when you dig in to it. I love the simplicity and honesty of the tele. It gives back what you put into it.
@@FranciscoAbreuMusic I ended up getting mine at a Guitar Center in Charlotte, NC, off the used rack, as it's called a Nashville Power Tele. That means, it's got the three pickup configuration, but also an acoustic saddle from Fishman under the bridge, so you can run it in Stereo. That's the main reason I got my JP-15 years ago, and finally, I have a backup stereo guitar for it. Fender also seemed to only make those varieties out of their Mexico plants. I was just in the right place at the right time.
@@thomasdemartino6109 Nice, good for you man. Mine has the mini humbucker on the neck and I really relate to that setup, though it obviously it is different the traditional tele sound on the neck.
I like tone.
Great playing. Sadowsky SS-15 is cult archtop.
Thank you for your kind words.
What tuning Machine ??
Have no idea.
Agua!
Eso es!
Always a big fan of the nylon string jazz thing. Thank you, Francisco. Always a pleasure hearing you.
Thank you for your kind words Thomas, very much appreciate it, cheers.
Sounds very much like Eric Johnson
I wish... But thank you for your kind words.
I got one of these amps for $600. Definitely one of the most underrated out there
Keep it up! ❤ Nice playing!!
The Acoustic sound on that thin body is amazing ! I think I will invest in one! Great video.
Budda is oddly one of the few amps I own that I feel comfortable leaving it on stand-bye day in and out. The amp actually brings me back to my Peavey days. I can see why Hartley was interested in owning the company. It has similar tone. It wants to play. I'm getting 1/2 power mod. And MV control in rear. Anything else?? I can entertain presence mod, but I don't like messing with original tone. I'm not that into presence much anyhoo.
Uff man - the tone is so healthy, balanced, and thick. Gorgeous! It shines through even with just an iPhone as the audio recording source. (of course, the guitarist, not just the Sadowsky, has something to do with it - haha!)
Thank you for your king comment, cheers.
Agua!
Esoooooooooooo! What piezo do you have in your traditional classical guitar?
They are the same that you have on the Godin guitars. I like them because they read each string separately.
@@FranciscoAbreuMusic - thanks 🙏
Great playing and lovely phrases Francisco!! The combo Sadowsky + Fender Deluxe is really amazing, you have a pretty nice tone!! So jealous of your Sadowsky!! I live in France and they're pretty hard to find!! Happy new year and best wishes for this 2024!! Greetings, Jose
Thank you for your kind words Jose, very much appreciated. Yes I agree they sound great together.
It is lovely, Francisco! ❤🎵
I appreciate your kind words. Thanks for listening Renato.
Great playing, I was wondering how well do you find the sadowsky handles feedback?
Thank you. I use this guitar just for Jazz playing that is obviously a lower volume type of music playing but even playing at bigger venues, opposed to small clubs, I never had issues with feedback.
Incredible instrument, electronics/amplification, and playing. Eso es!
Thanks a lot!
That's the sound. What strings are you using in this video?
Roger Sadowsky 12's strings.
Okay, that's the sound. What neck pickup and strings do you have on it? You're getting a thick jazzy tone out of it.
Original pickup, Sadowsky roundwound 12s
@@FranciscoAbreuMusic Thank you. What year is that model?
@@markslist1542 2015
Que cordas de Nylon esta sendo usado neste instrumento?
Provavelmente Dadario, não me recordo.
What are your thoughts on the Sadowsky Semi-Hollow? I would love to hear your experience with it compared to other semi-hollow, i am thinking about purchasing one. Do you feel like they are worth it? The overtones i hear are incredible.
Don't have much experience playing other semi hollow guitars but compared with a 335 that I have played some times, it is a great guitar for clean tones and Jazz. Because of not having a full middle wood peace like the 335 has, the Sadowsky comparatively, has a bit more air, sounds more opened and acoustic I would say. If you want more that blues, or push more those overdrive tones with sustain, I would prefer the 335 as it responds naturally better to that. I might be wrong...
what color is this one?
Violin something
My gosh that combination sounds beautiful. Thank you for uploading it.
Thank you for your kind words Mark, very much appreciated.
Excellent... Have a nice evening!
Thank you! You too!
Nice
Thanks
You are a gifted and soulful musician. And those pickups sound amazing in that guitar. Do you know if they are wax potted or not (I know Bare Knuckles makes both)? Thank you and cheers. 👍🙏
Thank you for your kind comment, very much appreciated. Regarding your question, I am sorry but I really do not recall what I chose at the time when I bought them to replace the original ones.
are you using the waza for attenuation ?.... if so does it work better then the master volume?...thanks....sounds great !!
Thank you Scott. As the Master volume has a direct influence on the type of sound you have (it's related to the tube on the power section) and the way the amp breaks up, I would say that you have more control by using the Waza as a real master controller for your overall volume. In that way you can shape the sound as you wish and maintain your desired tone. This is obviously only logical if you are pushing the amp. If not, then yes, just skip the Waza and use the master volume. The thing is, this amp is LOUD and almost impossible to have it at bedroom levels even having a master volume (it really does not decrease the volume in a gradual way under a certain point). Hope this helped, cheers.
Excellent sound! I have a Superdrive 45 too and was curious about a couple things. Are you running the EP Booster into the clean or gain channel, I am assuming the clean. Also, what speakers are you using in the Bogner cab? This sounds sweet!
Thank you Cole for your kind comment, very much appreciated. Yes, EP Booster into the clean channel and the speakers on the Bogner are the original ones (sorry don't know which ones they are).
Is there a difference between the series II and the original?
From What I know, The original was completely hand wired and the series II is hand wired on the power amp section and PC board on the pre amp stage. I love my series II and feel its extremely consistent and reliable sound wise. From what I read, sometimes there were some deferences between the same amp model on the original version.
Maravilhoso!
Obrigado.
Que som legal, seu e do violão 😅
Obrigado!
Masterful!
Thank you for your kind comment, very much appreciated.
Great tones throughout especially the warm Jazz tones in the last part of the video!
Thank you, appreciate it.
what is the presence mod?
Man these sound killer - great playing too! Have you tried these pickups in a semi-hollow by chance? I'm looking to swap the pups in my Heritage H535 and these sound very promising. I'm mainly a single coil fender style player, and these sound like they got that single coile-esque clarity, but just fatter.
Thank you, appreciate it.
I could listen to these all day long :) please keep uploading them :)
:) Thanks for that.
Amazing! Always been considering the j rocket boing, thanks for selling me on it
Thank you for your kind comment, appreciate it and a pleasure to have helped some how.
Damn i was hoping to see the inside of the amp :-P haha Nice amp, thanks for the video :-)
Thank you, appreciate it.
