  • After releasing Trio Grande with saxophonist Will Vinson and drummer Antonio Sánchez (via Whirlwind Recordings), Gilad Hekselman virtually invited PG’s Chris Kies into his NYC-based jam space.
    In this episode, the jazz-guitar vanguard shows his main instruments-including a custom Italian semi-hollowbody, a rare ’70s Gibson acoustic/electric, and a bizarre-looking hollowbody-and explains how a mini tube head from Greece supplanted his favorite Fender combo, and runs through his cramped, ever-changing, self-limiting pedalboard that mimics everything from other instruments to a malfunctioning computer.

    I’ve heard Gilad at the Vanguard with his group and in New Haven with “ Real Feels”. He is playing is so creative and musical; every performance takes one on a journey. Although not my primary instrument, he inspired me to take up guitar and take lessons. Gilad is an inspirational player, and I hope someday to play music on guitar in the same vein.

    44:00 In an older video, he used that Boss OC-3 or an OC-2 and ran both a bass amp and a guitar amp. The lower strings would go through the bass amp and the high strings through the guitar amp. Try it out, it's a magical thing.

    • @karlderdelinckx
      @karlderdelinckx ปีที่แล้ว

      That’s a great trick. When improvising freely from one scale to another it’s not always easy to be in par with a bass player. Unless you use a strickt form and in this way you just play both parts. So great … should try it.

    Gilad has been blowing me away since his Montreux performances from 2006(?) -- Maybe the most developed voice of his generation, at such a young age.
    I miss those old days when Ari Hoenig's Punk Bop group was playing at Smalls like every other week, and you could stream it on the website!

    9:50 Holdsworth was also pianistic in his approach to cord structure and melodic harmony. I see a lot of that in Gilad, but they’re not the same, but like two distinctive piano players playing guitar.

    As a non metal 7 string player i was really interested in the different low string tunings he is using. Because a low B is not very comfortable when you play certain chords. In a recent interview for the german gitarre&bass magazine he also mentions the confusion the extra string creates every time you switch back from 6 to a 7 string Instrument even after years of experience. Because a 7 string simply cannot be regarded as a 6plus1 guitar if you are not just playing power chords.
    Great player, great music!!!!
