    One day I was sitting with a band at Ernie's, a Mexican restaurant in North Hollywood, a major record business hang-out, going over a record deal contract. I was advising them not to sign a 7 record deal, but to keep the deal as short as possible. Suddenly, a very VERY enthusiastic person popped over the seat from the booth next to us exclaiming, "Don't do it!! Don't do it man!! Do not sign a 7 record deal!! You will get fucked I promise!!!" It was Tracii, reinforcing what I was advising the band.

    Been a fan of LA Guns from the debut album & have seen them quite a few times over the years. Always a great show. Met the band a few years back when they did a meet & greet after the show which was just a spontaneous thing on the behalf of the band as it hadn't been advertised in anyway & got some stuff signed that i just happened to luckily have in my car. Just turned 50 myself 3 days ago so being a product of the 80s i'm loving the star shaped guitar. Definitely on my to get list even tho i can hardly play. Happy Birthday Tracii.

    @ToddTheJoker 3 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    That was a great interview and chat Lee...Tracii is the coolest guy, I follow him and Phil on IG and I sent Tracii a pic of a boat that someone had named "Rip and Tear" and he actually wrote me back and we had a laugh over it...awesome guy and it meant alot to me because I have been a fan of L.A.Guns since the 80's!

    Excellent interview from both sides. Fun and informative and didn't come across like one of those 'sales pitch' type chats. I actually met Tracii a few years ago and he is exactly like that...easy going and down to Earth. Also the most underrated guitarist on the planet!

  • @L0stJ0hnny
    @L0stJ0hnny 3 ปีที่แล้ว +11

    Good to hear Tracii Guns acknowledging the influence of Hanoi Rocks. I can remember Phil Lewis (LA Guns vocalist) fronting Girl (also featuring Phil Collen on guitar) and getting a barrage of bottles at the Reading Festival in 1980 for having the kind of image and playing the kind of rock that would go down an absolute storm in LA just a few years later.

    • @Lorneplumber
      @Lorneplumber 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I remember Hanoi Rocks turning up in a very small northern UK town, It was like Martians had landed. Seeing Andy getting changed in the toilets is an image that will never leave me
      Hanoi at hacienda was the loudest band I've ever experienced

  • @mattdaniels9510

    What a great interview. I’m sure I’m not the only 49 yr old to get a warm and fuzzy feeling of nostalgia when Tracii was talking about that LA Guns, Motley, GnR period of the mid 80’s

  • @smokepeddler

    I've seen LA Guns at least 30 times. Mostly in small venues. Traci has always been approachable and super cool to everyone.

  • @renewijgh7914

    A constant beacon for Rock and Roll guitar/guitarists. Melodic, speed, phrasing, intonation and tone and vibe. Very fortunate to have met him up close, in the Netherlands and USA. Rock on Tracii!

  • @kevmofo
    @kevmofo 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I bought the Gunstar. This is without any reservations the best playing guitar I have ever owned!!! I did change it yet, it's still stock. I had the pickups turned upside down. This makes the outside pups hot when you go to single coil mode. I followed Tracy's idea on moving the front strap button to a different place to make the guitar play without neck dive. I have the action sooo low with 8gaudge strings. I also had it wired so the knob right under the bridge pup is the bridge pup. It helps alot! Kramer has always been a easy fast guitar for players! This is My third Kramer. The only guitar I've owned that came close to Kramer's playability was a Charvel model 4. This is the best guitar I've ever owned!! Well worth every penny. Get one. You can play it sitting too. It tucks right into your body. You can set these up for such low action it's amazing. Get a Gunstar! Thanks to Tracy for going with Kramer! Really!!

    Tracii is truly one of the most personable, down-to-earth 80's guitarists - a very select few in that bunch for sure. Love the look of that new Kramer Gunstar... but though all that talk about his gear, no one ever mentioned that Tracii is a user and endorser of the HEADRUSH pedalboard. I was hoping that it would at least be mentioned if he made any alterations to his Headrush Signature Rig Pack specifically to use the Kramer Gunstar in a live situation.

  • @edwinstovall3334
    @edwinstovall3334 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Some of the things Tracii said about Les Pauls and low-output pickups put me in mind of a mod I recently did on a cheaply-acquired Ibanez RG220B. I was able to obtain a set of Epiphone Alnico Classic humbuckers and wire them into the RG. Once I plugged it in, I was rewarded with a sound very much like that of an Epi Les Paul that featured both the pickups and a Floyd Rose Special. I'd played one in Guitar Center, but couldn't buy it, so I'm very pleased now to have a guitar that captures that sound well. Both axes played well also, but I just may prefer my RG because I gave it a fret job and I set it up myself FOR myself. I HIGHLY recommend to every guitarist that they learn basic setup techniques and practices, and that they acquire the tools to perform this work. Not only does one cure an unhealthy fear of guitars, but one learns that while tone IS in the hands, it's also in the guitar's setup. Small variances can mean big changes in the guitar's tone and/or feel. One can set up a guitar with TONE in mind! It's MUCH more subtle than setting up for the FEEL of a guitar, because smaller changes are involved. Once one begins to get used to the practice, though, one arrives at a position allowing one to make one's guitars TRULY UNIQUE! THAT'S how ones personalizes guitars!😎❤️️🎸‼️

    I think live music will do well when something close to normal happens. I feel the C19 thing has put more value on people over 'accumulating things' nothing is more about 'people' then the feeling of a celebration of being alive that live music easily promotes. Musical instruments are a tool to communicate without the need to understand it's language. I think we will soon see the value of music and put it back into schools with an importance as high as science and math.

    Oh, I get it, it was a joke, since the Yardbirds. I'm 64 and if I would of played with the Yardbirds, I would of been Like 7 years old at the time. Of course the Yardbirds are still going with one original member. Someday maybe, heirloom groups will not have any original members. Musicians don't live forever, except in our hearts.

    Interesting guy. I never got onto the whole LA / 'hair rock' kind of deal but I did like Guns and Roses I guess. I was more into the bands out on the margins..punk into post-punk stuff. I like the darker stuff too like grindcore, black metal, speed metal..those genres. I liked that spoof they did of that whole scene on 'Metalocalypse' where 'pickled the drummer' had his past exposed as a member of 'snakes and barrels' ..very funny, especially what happened to them at the reunion concert LOL. th-cam.com/video/qFOrPlA6IxU/w-d-xo.html
