I fuc**** love this guy ❤
Just seeing him casually makes me happy!
You are definitely a throwback to the past. Sometimes simple is better. The hands are the key to great players. So true. Glad to see you carry on the tradition of players like Leslie West.
I love the fact that Jared's n⁰ 1 guitar is a $699 epiphone, and his n⁰ 2 is a real deal '53 les paul
The guy could make a ukulele sound massive!
@@guitarguitaruk he really does
That "$699 Epiphone" you say is not the same you may find somewhere else.
Great player, great teacher, great guy.
Yeah exactly he almost looks like Ted Nugent. Imagine that. A Ted Nugent knock off.
Hey Jared ! Great tips :) May I add: 1. action height - too close might end up in outfretting and a higher action gives you better bends and sustain 2. pickup height: one should adjust it until overtones and harmonics really shine through 3. prefer a lower out put pickup rather than one that's too hot. You can always gain up, but a hot pickup might sound muddy/muffled when you want clean tones. Go Jared: you're the man ! \m/
Excellent tips my friend, we'll be having you on our channel for a Tone Tips video too! Cheers for checking out our video with Jared, look out for more content with him coming soon!
Depends, Gilmour action is very low, much lower than recommended by Fender and he's the bend master... but you need a perfect set up
Awesome guy, awesome player. Almost got to meet him in Amsterdam at a workshop, but Corona happened and all gigs and events got cancelled 😕. Hope to see him live some day!
He really his. Such amazing energy and passion for what he does. Fingers crossed you'll get to see him live soon! 😊🤘
All you said about I made the same expierences over 50 years of playing guitar. Now my favorite guitar is a Vandenberg 1 with one Dommenget Motherbucker 20 kohm pickup, 1 volume, 1 tone and 10 t0 46 strings, perhaps 9.5 to 44. Thanks and good luck /health!
What a great guy! Awesome music and awesome playing!! 🔥🤟
Sound advice from one of the undisputed kings of tone... and awesomeness 😎🎸 Thank you
If you feel comfortable you will be inspired. If u are inspired you’ll make amazing music.
Wise words my friend, wise words! 😁
Great video,a reminder even for the older guys ..
Cheers man, hope you enjoyed learning some tips from the great JJN. What a talent! 🙌
You're an amazing teacher. Thanks for passing this knowledge along.
Thanks for checking this out Rene. We'll have more content like this with Jared on our channel very soon, so keep an eye out! 😁
Single pickup and good touch! That's they way to do it, my friend! Thanks for having Jared on.
Cheers Bradley! We loved having Jared stop by and we hope to see him again very soon. There's more content with him coming soon so keep an eye out!
99% Of that tone is coming from the mustache!
It sure is one fiiiine mustache! 😁🤘
Oh man you are so right ! Your tips are so helpfull ! The Clapton woman tone is the perfect example on is Firebird !!!! By the way your guitar sounds great !!!
Jared is a man of wise words!! Look out for more content with him coming soon 😁🤘
Technique and style are in the hands. Stevie sounds like stevie, because he plays like Stevie..
Exactly.
Really????
Those double stops ring out differently when the tone is turned down, clearly tonally different. A great discussion on tone Jared. I'll agree that your hands are where it all mainly comes from.
Awesome bro thank you
Jared is the MAN! 😎
Thanks man🙂👍🎸🎸. You also have to feel and play it. Then you can also use effects. Thank you.🙂🎸🎸 Greetings from Germany and The Cute Urchins. All the best wishes. 🍀🍀🎸
Thanks for stopping by Kosta, hope you enjoyed learning some tips from the legendary JJN. 🤘😊
@@guitarguitaruk 🙂👍
Awesome tips from an awesome player, thanks for a great video! I had been playing guitar for many, many years before I started using my tone knob and I agree... it's actually a great way to tweak your tone and get some really great sounds out of your guitar without needing additional gear.
Awesome advise Jared!
Cheers for watching bud! 😊🤘
Love this guy 👍
Him: "All tone is in hands."
Me: "What amp you using mate?"
Amen brother 🙏🏻
Thanks for stopping by my friend. There's more Jared content coming soon! 😊
Awesome player, period!
A player’s tone is like a fingerprint unique to his/herself
Awesome info...and frustrating lol! I play so differently and tried to play using his methods and I suck
Good demo, nice epi!!
You wanna know about tone, turn the knob on your guitfiddle to where it gurgleflerps and makes a moist biscuit in your britches. That's tone. That's America
Please people pay attention. THE TONE KNOB IS USEFUL!!! USE IT!!!
SO important!!
I’ve been playing for 41 years. I always kept it on 10. The last three years I’ve been rolling back as low as three. So useful. Use it!!!!
was expecting you to do american women at some point..you had that kneck tone with just rolling that dial..cheers man enjoyed your video
thank you to be so open honest
This dude is an amazing player. 100% accurate
P90 man...
Agreed - his talents are utterly outstanding! 😁
P90s are probably the best for controlled filth, specially on an SG
Stephen Smith
Those were the days when Santana used them. 👍🏻
@@istvandejesusMy son has an SG with P90s and it is the best guitar I have ever played. It crunches through the mix beautifully
Stephen Smith
I would love one. The Gibson Les Paul Special is very nice but expensive. Does the SG have the tilted neck?
Hey Jared,
I’m new to your channel (I subscribed!). Love your tips on tone. For sure...it’s all in the hands! One question: Were you influenced by Ted Nugent? I see and hear that Ted “snarl” and feel in your playing 👍
Peace
Hey man, thanks for subscribing. Jared is a special guest here on our channel - he popped into our store guitarguitar while he was on tour! 😊
I'm 54 and started playing in 1979, in this mentally-guitarded guitarcheopteryx* guitarcheologist's opinion🧐...
Jared's playing has got 'Snakeskin Cowboy' and 'Stranglehold' entrenched in his timbre 'feel' & tonal palette, you would,
fair dinkum, have to have half-a-dozen roo's loose in ya top paddock not to hear Nugent's fingerprints all over Nichols sound.
I concur with ya FenderTeleDeluxe, bra. Peace, respect, far too much guitar is nowhere near enough.. & be nice to ya missus.

*(species of guitar-dinosaur🦖) [p.s. it's so bloody 🔥 hot 🌡here the🌴trees🌳are chasin' the🐩dogs🐕around!]
I wish he would have talked about why he uses a 250k volume pot and whether or not it has a treble bypass capacitor.
🏁👍
Jared is THE man!
How come you guys don't have Jared's signature lp jnr
I wish him to get out good. There are many people who get money with guitars, strings, amps, and so on... i wish him he can go his own way.
First
This gentleman has an intelligence and vocabulary far above his peers, many of which are incapable of stringing two sentences together without spewing immature disgusting filth.
Jared is our favourite modern day guitar hero. He's the best, such a gent!
Met him after the show in Des Moines 2 days ago. Super down to earth guy. He opened for John 5 and just went to the back of the room and invited people to come chat and grab pictures. Small bar, maybe 100 people there tops.
4:38 Many people sound like crap when using this kind of muffled tone, almost like their guitar is out of tune or poorly intonated. Jared is not one of those people.
Don't think Jared could ever sound terrible! It's just not in his power 🤪
Can i have a free fender sunbust strat with a maple bourd for bieng first
yes
ToNe Is iN tHe FiNGerS *picks nose*
Can’t understand why Gibson won’t throw on a set neck with Gibson headstock and call it a day. If I’m buying a signature model I don’t want it to be an epiphone when for an extra month of saving up I can get a Gibson!! Because well bottom line is it’s a Gibson and Gibson’s are the cool! Yet they insist on releasing signatures as epiphones.
For me, the type of g-string I'm wearing deeply affects my tone. It will dictate my amount of booty shakin' and, inherently, my tone and phrasing.
tone tip nr 1 is.... use your face while playing
Checks out, we'll try it.
The great tone because He Player with Fingers not pleectrum
I think 90% of sound comes from equipment. That little 10% is what sets players apart.
why not just have a neck pickup as well if you want a neck pickup sound? It doesn't make any sense not to have one.
Theres a theory that one pickup will let the strings resonate more than 2 pickups, because of less magnetism to the strings. Who knows, but one pickup guitars always sound huge to me
Why have another pickup if just the one does everything you want with just two knobs? A tone knob is $15 bucks at the most. A good pickup is $75 bucks at least.
Can't get over how goofy you are
Jared is the MAN. Such an awesome player and an outstanding talent! 😁
