- Although to some he may be more known for his signature model guitars, Pete Anderson is first and foremost an acclaimed Multi-Platinum and Grammy-Winning producer and guitarist. His groundbreaking production and guitar style perfectly framed Dwight Yoakam's songs, and the result was a series of commercial and critical triumphs for the two collaborators. In our interview, Anderson very kindly sits down with us to tell us his story, from sleeping in cars to the heights of his success. He also reveals how he had a huge hand in everything from the band's "look," to how he would rehearse the band until they could play the tunes in their sleep. All of the attention to detail and hard work paid off with a band that looked like stars and played like a well-oiled machine. All-in-all, a very enlightening peek at the innards of the music business from one of the all-time pros.
What a fascinating interview. Who would ever guess that the Dwight Yoakam band would have such struggles in the beginning of their career.Peter Anderson is a Great musician. Dwight Yoakam it is an amazing talent.
Personally, I was blown away when I first heard their music.
Shows you what horrible judges of talent are record companies.
I love how you step back and just let Pete talk away. Very much enjoyed this.
So glad!
Pete is an awesome musician. He made country music, country again. Great interview!
THIS was so great!~ Best interview with Pete ever! Great stories! I was a metal guy when i came upon Guitars Cadillacs in 86, and it totally turned my head. Wasnt long i had me a Tele. One of my favorite all time players. Those early Dwight albums are pure gold. Thanks for this!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I can answer as another metal head that has been drawn to this act like a magnet. I always said who is this guy!?!
Thank you so much for sharing your experience!
Incredible interview. Was on the edge of my seat. Supreme talent. He and Dwight were phenoms. Love em!
What a musician and this is a hall of fame interview by Zac.What really got me is when Pete said the second solo on Guitars Cadillacs was a mistake !! 😂😂😂I wish my mistakes sounded that good !!!
Just so awesome hearing the stories of Pete's Journey into Country Music!! Awesome Interview as usual!!
Thanks for listening
Absolutely stellar! This is what TH-cam was made for.
Absolutely loving these Truetone interviews . Saw Dwight and Pete in Adelaide 20 years ago and they were magnificent ! Pete's playing epic ! Him , Steve Wariner so well spoken and interesting .
Thanks for listening
Awesome interview! Great to hear the tales of Dwight and Pete...an amazing oddessy!
More to come!
Pete and Dwight are American treasures who are also both amazing storytellers.
I keep saying each one of these is the best one, but I believe this one really is!! I’d always wondered what happened with Dwight. Pete was really the architect of Dwights career and it’s a shame things ended the way they did. Can’t wait for part 2.
Wow, what an interview! :)
These two episodes are hands down the best. Just amazing. I’d encourage you to do something like this with Jimmy Olander. Great job.
Was listening to Hair Metal in the mid to late 80s. Pete Anderson stopped me in my tracks... Favorite player of all time.
I could listen to Pete's stories for days ( and I think I just did). The man has a knowledge and experience that can only come from hard core practice and lots of miles. Fan since 87.
I’ve been a Dwight/Pete fan for 30+ years and a guitar nerd for 26. All the magazines, TV interviews, books, liner notes, instructional videos, TH-cam and *never* heard all these great stories about their early days.
You can see a sample of the original lineup, complete with maroon suit, bib overalls, dual Twin Reverbs, etc., if you search for 'dwight yoakam farm aid 1986'. Great interview; thanks!
After playing the songs he’s talking about in bars and parties, Micro breweries, etc. this interview answers so many questions for me I really appreciate it.
What a treat. Thank you Zac & Pete!
Our pleasure!
Pete has been a major influence on my music. I found it interesting that he and I, for the most part, think alike especially in the guitar process. Thanks Pete for everything
Wow, a fountain of information is Pete! Enjoyed it Zac, thanks
You bet!
Pete, along with Jimmie Vaughan, are probably my #1 instrumental influences. such incredible insight to his life as a producer, here. he's still got a TON of fire in the belly, too, judging from this interview. thanks Zac!
You are welcome. Zac
That hour and a half just flew on by...I’m looking forward to Part 2!
Pete Anderson is Superman , incredible interview
God damn...All the guys i just wish i'd see all the time on you tube are on the same channel ! I truly dig this channel a lot.Thanks for all those interviews , it's pure gold
.cheers from France
Much appreciated!
Love it.
If this is the real Ducas, loved "Teardrops." Bennett did a great job framing the entire album.
Truetone that it is. Thank you for the quarantine study! RB and I remain close. Certainly a team effort; I write my songs of course, some of which I wrote the bones of the sig riffs along with at the time, but a whole lot of which Richard came up with in studio. And the genius fills. Even those I wrote, he sure took them to another level. Always does!
George! Thanks for the heads up, great interview.
Pete Anderson my favorite guitarists and producer. I've been privileged to know this true rock n roll star, and Pete is also a gracious man. I look forward to his next 'hit'!

Fantastic! So much detailed information from this master! :)
Glad you enjoyed it
Greatest interview I’ve ever watched. Thank you both.
I think this remarkable man has no idea how influential he has been to us all just as a guitarist.
Long winded? I wish this interview was 4 hours!!!
A LOT of what Pete says resonates with me and I agree with his work ethic. Very smart and hard working guy.
Zac, Awesome as always!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I look forward to the day when Pete and Dwight work together again.
Great interview
Peter Anderson is my ultimate guitar hero as a kid and adult still!! A creative Genius, hard worker, and great attention to detail.
Love Pete's playing!
Love this Pete Anderson interview and the conversation about his career! Interesting! Thanks for another great talk about guitar!
Thanks for listening
Great interview - thank you! Best explanation I've heard yet from Pete on the Dwight split.
For me this guy is the sound of the telecaster- huge influence- crazy he said the 2nd solo was a mistake - for me it is the epitome of the tele sound - and I still play it all these years later
Really good interview. Also made me realize I was born 30 years too late.
Great video! Hindsight is always 20./20 though. No one can truly predict their success until it happens. You can certainly plan and feel good about what you're doing, but it's always gamble at the time it's happening.
This was great and he’s probably my biggest country influence.
Priceless. Thank you both.
Our pleasure!
Pete is always the Professional and SUPERTALENTED! Loved this, so much insight and memories explain a lot. Thanks for this! Brilliant!
Our pleasure!
Wow this was really interesting! Great interview.
Thanks so much!
My all time favorite guitar player.
On my second time through this video. Gonna watch the next one again, too. Some serious gold to be panned out of these two interviews. Thank you for bringing the goods!!!
Glad you enjoyed it
Another great one in the books Zac! I could listen to you and Pete all day.🎶🎸
Thanks for listening
Thanks Zac another great interview . Pete and I are about the same age and both grew up on the east side of Detroit. As always I learned a lot from the interview. Another great master of the Telecaster !!!
He absolutely blew my mind when I first heard him. Such great, assertive, yet tasteful guitar parts. Zac
I want that book when it comes out!
PETE! Classy guy. Always on point. Helluva guitar player. If you don't know but you want to know, go see him for some holy grail guitar 👑
This was amazing, what a story, Pete is some kind of genius! Thanks Zac, for some of the best guitar content around, we appreciate you!
My pleasure!
Great interview, loved the Brent Rowan anecdote👍
The "MAN" Pete Anderson 🎸🔥👍✌👏⭐❤ Great Video Great Interview 👍🎶🧨
Glad you enjoyed it
Great interview as usual Zac! I look forward to the next hour and a half with Pete. Very entertaining and insightful. Always loved his work!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Amazing interview ! Pete is a master.
This was very cool. I work occasionally with Mark Insley, who Pete produced back in the 90s. He's got great stories about working with Pete; was cool to hear some stories from the man himself.
Great interview! Looking forward to part two.
Coming soon!
Cannot wait for Pete's production book.
Guitar monster!!! 😎
Zac this was great. Looking forward to part II with Pete. I guess I have already expressed my opinion about him but I will say it again, I love Dwight but I am really only there to listen to Pete Anderson play. Got to give him credit for keeping up with Pete for 20 years though, he is a task master.
Well said!
This has been very enjoyable!
Super good interview!
Great interview sir, thanks for this!
Our pleasure!
Nice one Zac! Great to hear these stories.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Some paralells in guitars and amps for sure. I started with a Ventures Mosrite 3/4 scale, painted it candy apple red and traded for a '68 Gibson Walnut 345 then for a '71 LP Deluxe then Fenders. Used the wet/dry thing as well with a rewired 305a Harmony (read Princeton circuit chan, then ged to brown face Deluxe and long tail for ngain and a 70s SF Super Reverb which I only use the top re-coned 10s. EV12Ls are the best also love the Celestion Vintage 30s in a Deluxe. Zac, this was so interesting following a 40 yr career. Now to get time to watch prt 2.
Takes a clear mind to make it. David Lindley
Pete also produced an album by the late Tulsa blues guitarist Steve Pryor. I'd love to hear some of his recollections of Steve Pryor.
I take it you're familiar with Steve Pryor. Steve was finally in a really good place when he had his accident. As with so many musicians Steve certainly had his demons but he had them at bay for the better part of the 2000's. He was so unassuming and funny as hell! I live in Fayetteville, Arkansas and for quite a few years it had become something of a tradition for Steve Pryor, Steve Kimock, and Earl Cate (Cate Brothers Band) to play on the Friday and Saturday nights for Earls birthday which is December 26. That's something of a testament to how much Pryor turned his life around because Kimock may not be everyone's cup of tea but he doesn't allow just anyone on his stage. I'd love to hear any of Pete's tales from working with Steve if you'd be inclined to share. Sorry for the novel! Take care and keep those interviews coming!
Pete is my favorite guitar player of all time and Eddie shaver is second!!!
Great interview!!
Love it
Thanks so much!
Saw him backing Ray Davies at Glastonbury in the 90’s…ace.
Best legendary guitar picking player ever
Our Day Will Come has to be a Strat. I think it is the best thing you ever did. Little Dog rules.
Yes!!! Love pete🙌🏼
Yes!!
I wanted to say that superstars like Dwight, are always getting the complaints, from personnel, band, management, etc...Because everyone takes the perspective, 'They're huge, commanding stars, with a enormous fan base, tremendous platinum, gold awards and wealth'. So, they can absorb, handle everything..kinda like the buck stops ...but its hard when you're the entity, responsible.. You always have to ask yourself, '"If Dwight dose not show ..do the fans still come to the concert or buy the record if he's not on it? Dwight thru his original, sexy, authentic lyrics, vocals and performance is a true superstar (and in that legendary bracket now) So its up to Pete, to approach Dwight, and say 'forget about yesterdays news, let's make sone new magic and hits that only we can for tomorrow!'
Remember and its easy to forget the sales, the audience, is all predicated upon the boot shaken, dancing, sexy moves and vocals of Dwight...and although the sound is greatly responsible for the hits..All the girls, and I mean hot babes, blondes, mini shirts, boots singing along comprise 80% of his LIVE CONCERTS! My first Dwight show..I thought.. its a video shoot.. and went to a second concert... and it was the same... all babes in the audience!
DWIGHT IS A MAJOR SUPERSTAR....AND WITH PETE... THE BAND AND SHOW ARE AT FULL POWER!
I know Pete has a really good, honest perspective on it all, by the kind, reflection at the end, regarding him and pal Dwight, "TWENTY YEARS IS ALOT TO ASK OF ANYONE TO PUT UP WITH PETE ANDERSON"
Do I have to get a case and lasso these two for a reunion?

Pete is a good guy!
Great interview, thanks Zac. Always loved Pete’s inventiveness and very interesting to hear how things got started for him. Had a visit to Little Dog once many years ago which I really enjoyed. Thanks from across the pond
Glad you enjoyed it!
The Best!!!
God Bless th Little Dawg.
Check out Pete's signature guitars with Reverend.
Well Zac as an interviewer that was a toughie ... not . If they are talking you listen and Mr Anderson can talk , bring on part 2 asap
Next Week!!!!
@@TruetoneFX Brilliant can't wait
Pete!
It it true that Pete changed the mid range circuitry in his Deluxe? I heard about a mod for that. I heard that Vinny uses it too. Just wondering.
But...That was one of the best TTL interviews you have done Zac. He is such a stylist and really makes smart music. There were a bunch of smart nuggets laced in this one. Thanks Zac. Thanks Pete.
Yes. He had the mids cranked to 10 in the circuit.
I actually like this quarantine style interview better than Tone Talk with Dave Friedman. This is shorter and no drinking, not that i mind consumption of alcohol or lengthy interviews. This is very professional and real too. I prefer the two people in the same room style that this show is known for, mainly because you can record the artist playing music and there's no video freezing momentarily.
Sorry for the freeze!
@@TruetoneFX No worries. Thank you so much for what you do. It was one of the best interviews i've seen on Truetone. I'm sorry if i sounded unappreciative. Can't wait for a part two!
A real cat. Thank Zac xoxo
I think like all the great players everybody stole something from Pete Anderson.
Pr
If you want to ask anybody how good Pete is.....just ask him😂😂
I didn't get that vibe at all....
Wow, Pete barely takes a breath the whole time . . Yikes
Turned 72 yesterday.
Normally I'd agree, but I found everything Pete saying was super interesting, lol.
