This is better than 90% of the guitar videos on TH-cam - and the dude doesn’t at all even seem like he intended to make this. Seems like he’s just chillin talking about guitar shit and someone took out their phone and started filming. Love it.
You’re spot on w your assessment! I’m in 1000000% agreement w you! The dude knows his shit,can play w feel, and isn’t pretentious or talking ‘down’ to you.He’s REAL!. There’s so many a-holes out there.Guys like R hett Sh ule, who I personally don’t know, and could be a good guy.But for me, being a studio keyboard occasional guitar, multi instrumentalist player my whole career, guys like the one I mentioned just sometimes bother me!This guy is f-in awesome. You can tell he’s doing it for the right reasons, not to sell merch or get the most subscribers, which will possibly get him the most subs! I subscribed immediately!
Thanks for your take on it!
Yeah exactly. No tedious upbeat intro, hard sell etc etc
Stumbled onto this whilst looking through TH-cam and, after reading some of the initial comments I am in agreement, best telecaster playing I've watched.
Your range of playing is amazing , I could listen to you all day.
I don’t hear anything special.
@@BkBk-gy6vr because you still have your head into your own arse.
I saw a guitar documentary featuring Andy Summers demonstrating his latest effects rack and foot switcher. The last thing he said was, "basically we use all this stuff to make the guitar sound like it did before we had all this stuff".
chorus and delay, flange?,…..?
@@bonsummers2657 Don't know. Just quoting Andy. The show was called Equinox, and I believe it was produced in the UK.

Best Telecaster demo. Fender should pay you.
Why I don’t hear anything special.
@@BkBk-gy6vr That's because you have terrible ears ! Get them checked soon

@@percythrower9193 I don’t listen to what someone once said that’s for fools.
"The enemy of art is the absence of limitations." -Orson Welles
The beauty of guitar music is in its limitations. When you are only give a single volume and tone, you will try to maximize the different types of tones. Then you add in the pickup selector. Then you add in the amp EQ. There are so many tonal variations can be achieved with just simple controls, but we live in a modern digital age where we have everything accessible at our fingers with modeling amps and digital amp sims, but there is a beauty in the limitations and it truly breeds creativity and innovation.
Absolutely !
This has been known since the late-80s, when the supposedly "advanced" guitars like Steinberger with active pickups plugged into rack$ of outboard FX and MIDI sounded worse than an old Gibson or Fender plugged straight into an old amp for 90+% of anything you'd ever want to record.
It's kinda how we got bands like the Black Crows and an entire genre like grunge in the first place.
Everything you said.
I have felt like this for many many many years...Countless examples in music and film, just because the limits are lifted does not mean you will create something better.
An even more important aspect of all this though is that with easy software technology for doing anything and everything at a few clicks, this allows businesses to completely control everything that's produced. A corporation no longer needs to bother hiring actual artists and craftspeople to make music or films or whatever else, they can just produce anything from software templates based on whatever the internet data dictates will sell best (which is of course always repeating old things, hence why everything's gone stale) and they can just hire whoever to be a brand image for them and tell them what to do and write their stuff for them etc etc.
How it should be done ... like Jaco said: "It's all the hands." Someone asked Wilko Johnson what pedals he used, Wilko said: "I'm a guitarist, not a fucking cyclist."
Jaco is extremely respectable and I’m not sure where that quote is from but he did use loopers, delays, reverbs, and chorus often.
@@paulginaven7986 The quote is from Jaco himself. he did use tricks when needed, but mainly it was all in his hands
@@elizabethanderson2968but no one says pedals makes you good at playing, Hendrix didn’t used an octavia or an univibe because it made him play better he used those in order to get the space psychedelic factor he wanted to impulse in his songs. People like you won’t like that I’m sure but Les Rallizes Dénudés shows what a few maxed out pedals do and it’s incredible even more for the 70s
@@omnirath Its a subjective thing
@@elizabethanderson2968 yeah but there’s no way it should be done, effects are tools, the saturation of a bassman too
The best guitar ever made.
This man has fully connected hands to his trained ears. Great playing joy to listen 👌👍
Thanks
Man appears out of nowhere and drops probably the best Telecaster showcase out of whole TH-cam's. Not a single second wasted.
Great video! A mentor told me once, “Tone is in the hands”. There’s truth to that. The guitar and amp won’t do all the work. He is one with the guitar. So the guitar gives all it has to offer.
Truth to that, check out Roy Buchanan! Telecaster, cord, Fender Vibroverb, period!
With a bit different amp he could have gone a LOT further than this with minimal effort. No channel switching or EQ needed.
One amp-footswitch and one boost pedal does it.
With an amp's switchable reverb (preferably an amp with drippy reverb :) and a single boost pedal to keep some headroom, he can extend the range into a (thin but serviceable) Jazz timbre, a Surf, Spy and Spaghetti Western timbre, and Ska & reggae skank rhythms .
The answer is: People who live in appartments for rent. If i would play my amp at the edge of break up the cops will knock at my door in a few minutes. 😅
So i am realy happy about my FX pedals. 😉
Or, just lower the master
@@whatisthis__95 thank you soooo much🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 i never thought about that before. You realy saved my life. 🙄 ..... There are amps without a master volume, you know?
Headphone
@@marquisdecarabas1312 get a volume pedal, drive your amp hard, then just lower the volume with the pedal. You will get the tone but at a lower volume
@@marquisdecarabas1312 if you have a send in/out, you could get the JHS little black amp box. I had the same problem as you, that box kept my tone and lowered the volume. But only on a send in/out
Nice … this is why I love my Telecaster.
I saw Petty playing one when I was 14 & thought it looked cool, and once I finally got one I understood why so many people use them.
There's nothing in the world like a Telecaster for tone.
well, except every other 25 1/2" scale electric guitar.
it's TIMBRE is wiry, spiky and thin. _Tone_ and tonality is about **intervals** (triTONE, diaTONic, pentaTONIC... get it?)
not the amp setting or sound of pickups etc... but people are stuck in a dysfunctional terminology, so here we are

Christ that Hendrix tone is spot on 👌
Just when I thought I was making progress on guitar, I see this guy 😪😪
lol same.
Dude switches style like it ain’t no thing
No shredding, just rockin out. Love it.
Comparison is the thief of joy. Judging by the grey hair and skill…he’s been at it a while. Keep getting better bit by bit and you’ll get there too.
You've proved that It all comes down to the skill of the player, not how much you've spent on effects.
I used to hate telecasters until I bought one ,and now I absolutely love them and now I have 3 . A very nice sounding versatile guitar . Fantastic tones sounds great well done .
Cheers
Happened to me. Now they are my main guitars.
I tell people I'm a recovering Les Pauler.
The problem is so many YT demos of boost and OD are using teles and noodling generic 'blues licks' with no other meaningful context,
so when demo'ing the EQ and gain ranges the relatively shrill, thin and 'spiky' timbre of a tele is ear-fatiguing faster than other guitars. Particularly when playing generic blues licks
_"oooh yeah, baby....Just cant wait for yet another 3-string-mute-to-wholestep-bend to kick off another"solo" "_ fucking hell, lol
Me too. This is such a common story; I didn't get them at all until I noticed that so many of favourite artists and songs used them. Now mine has pride of place!
Amazing what variety of tones, even without touching Amp buttons, only guitar selectors, great presentation 👏👏👍
I went pedal buying crazy during Covid boredom. Almost all of them have ended up for sale on reverb. I am now down to 3 or 4 including a tuner. I am trying back to practicing everyday with just the guitar and amp and it’s making me better at understanding the relationship between guitar volume, tone and dynamics and the pre-amp/power amp sections of my amp. Im not a great player, but the fewer pedals I use the better I begin to understand what’s really happening here.
I’m 62 been playing since 15 I’ve never had a pedal. Used overdrive on amp and reverb . I know I guy who couldn’t play a gig because he lost a pedal
All I use is a reverb pedal and a drive, if my amp doesn't have those built in.
Agreed
@@Anjohl I like Reverb. My amp has it built in, so no need for a reverb pedal.
50% of my friends like Delay, and 25% of those use both reverb and delay. Am I missing anything by not using both reverb and delay?
@@cNicely Just colors the sound more, personal preference on that
Just cut the grass, three beers in, don’t know exactly what’s going on after them beers but I do think I’m impressed!
How did the grass turn out?
Yep. I ditched pedal rigs and even solid-body guitars long ago. I found when I stopped busying myself tweaking gear on stage, my tips shot way up, because I stay connected to the audience instead of the rig. Nice picking control allows you to sound like two players instead of one. I think guys are waaaaay to busy with gear. You start actually playing more sophisticated when you're left with only the instrument
Great video post!
I went through six years on the road in the 60s with my Tele and it could do anything, it never broke down and with a rosewood board the tonal possibilities were vast. You have just shown me the ones I didn't manage. What a vid display of our fav. guitar Thank You
Great informative video showing the versatility of the Telecaster. And nicely played.
That's why I always say the telecaster is the best guitar ever made
Agree. The Tele and the 335 are the most versatile electric guitars IMHO.
Bull, it's a poor man's strat
@@djizzah What's a strat?
Very cool. I'm embarrassed by how late in life I started using the knobs, or as Joe Bonamassa calls them, "the forgotten pedals" the wah trick is really fun.
What's the wah trick ? Please share it.
@@benallmark9671 it's a volume knob "trick".
Typical wah is a resonant band-pass filter. Most guitar "tone" knobs are a non-resonant lowpass, so they wont get a "quack-a-waka" sound.
He got all these great examples for the different sounds! Very organized❤
Brilliant display of versatility!
Great video,got a ton of pedals but went back to basics with my Tele, forgot just how versatile they are,many thanks for a brilliant display 💯
Absolutely fantastic!
This video is up there with Joe Bonamassa's Les Paul tone lesson for showing just how much variety you can get out of just volume and tone knobs.
What a great demo by a very cable guitarist. Those wishing to learn from this note how his technique changed to get the most out of guitar sound. Amazing demo of technique here as well as guitar sounds. 👍
Many guitarists never investigate those partial volume sounds - I use them on all my guitars and in fact IMO I think the best tones lie there. I have the same tele as you do - what a tone machine!
Very informative. Thank you. It’s easy to forget just how many great sounds can be made with the most basic of equipment AND imagination. Once again, thank you.
Great playing and sounds!
Jam packed, pun intended. So good. Thank you!
Best tele I’ve watched all night.
Great information and perfect presentation. Glad I clicked this vid!!
Great demo of sounds........
I think there’s a time and place for pedals too but this is a great example that you don’t really need them. Also a reminder how simple but versatile a telecaster is. Easy to pick up, hard to master. Why I love teles, and Im not nearly as good as a player
Sounds Awesome !!! Well done !! I like it !!!!
Kinell!! At last someone has explained how to use the knobs. I'm gobsmacked. Fabulous demo. Brilliant, no-nonsense video. Many thanks.
Excellent demonstration, there's a lesson to be learnt there !
Great display of options..
the feel is for real, fabulous playing!
Awesome playing and tones! 🤘
Great video. Lots of good for thought on all the tones you can get out of a tele.
Nice demo - Guthrie is an advocate of this approach too! Thanks for posting.
That was an incredible demo. I'm looking for a tele now
Just got a Tele. Thank you. Your technique is pro level. Fantastic.
Okay, I’m impressed!!!!
Great playing & Info....Glen is the bomb!!!
WoW! What an outstanding video. Thanks
Genius. Always loved my tele but think I need to get to know it even better now - after God knows how many years! Thanks mate.
Amazing how many different tones you can get from a Telecaster! Great job Glen, demonstrating how to tweak your Tele to make your sound fit any style of music! Love that Telecaster you're playing, by the way! 😊👍👍🎸🎶✨
Awesome examples of how many miles you can get out of just a guitar and amp. Thank you!
Great playing and you are very right: It is as versatile as it gets.
Stunning tones
I mean, I get all you are doing on the guitar, and of course all of it works and are great resources, but come on! You got the Midas touch! It is your hands and fingers doing all the work! You are an amazing player! New favorite channel found!
Super cool video. Thanks
That performance is only perfect lad. Ingenious as well!
This is worth me clicking subscribe. Great video. Its amazing how many guitarists just leave their volume & tone knobs on 10 and never learn to experiment with all the different sounds they can get just by adjusting volume & tone. I dont mind using effects but adjusting volume & tone on the guitar is a must and a lost art form
Every guitar player ever, should watch this video. 👏
This really reminds me about that video of Joe Bonamassa doing the same thing with a Les Paul.. never thought a Tele can be just as versatile!!!
th-cam.com/video/DbI7yW1c1eU/w-d-xo.html
He’s a good player who plays great blues-based guitar. No, he doesn’t need effects for that. But some of us play in other styles where effects are vital to what we do. One approach is not better than the other.
The sound is so much more organic when you don't clutter things up with effect pedals and rack gear. Just a 2-pickup guitar with a volume and tone knob plugged into an amp where overdrive is controlled by the volume knob can deliver such an amazing palette of tones. So many great guitarists from Walter Trout to Angus Young got great tones by plugging straight in sans effects. No reason why we knuckleheads can't do the same!
Really a nice telecaster demo. I’ve had so many it’s nice here you go through all these different sounds
Thank you kindly!
Excellent! 👍
Love that guitar tone! Nice find for sure!
This was excellent
Love tele's, nice playing and tone Glen!
Good demo. I've played many gigs with a Telecaster, one lead, and the overdrive channel of a Fender BDR, using just the pickups, volume and tone controls. For the faux wah effect, I hammer on rather than picking.
Masterful playing pal👍
Thank you
Dude your amazing. You known exactly what your doing. Subbed.
great tutorial Glen, certainly have learned a lot, your guitar sounds fantastic ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,greetings Renee
You surely inspire me to play more!
Great tones, subscribed.
Great video!!!
Superb video. Great playing and really educational
Awesome ❤ Thanks for this value presentation ❤
Excellent playing sir!
Who needs guitar effects? Anyone who’s interested in getting sounds that aren’t classic blues sounds.
I do all these things with the knobs on my guitars, but since I like getting a wall-of-sound tone or getting 80s new wave tones or getting spacious ambient tones, these techniques are simply insufficient. I rely on my compressor and my fuzzes and my delay and reverbs and modulation pedals. The fact that I learned all the guitar-knob tricks certainly helps, especially playing into my Fuzz Faces, but I do need more to play the songs I love.
This video is spot on
Wonderful guitar technique.
Music is really on the body first of all, not first on the gear. The gear helps getting more variety.
Thanks a lot!
This video is gold!! Thanks a lot!
Tones and riffs for days!
I tend to put pedals into two categories. One is tone and the other is effects. Most tone pedals aren’t needed beyond needing more gain. Effects like chorus, delay, rotary, wah etc. can’t be replicated but depending on what type of stuff you’re playing you may not need them.
I generally think it’s better to have and not need than need and not have. An occasional effects pedal can be very effective……
Perfect illustration as to why you only ever need one electric guitar. The original and still the best. The Fender Telecaster
I've always said I like my slew of guitars...which does not include a Tele....but IF I could only have one I'd sell all of them and get a Tele.
Lovely guitar and tones....👍
Amazing!❤
Thank you! 😄
Great informative video, and you are a very good player too!
awesome video

Your tele sound so good, especially the neck pick, I hear it more clarity like strat neck
Thanks a lot!
@@glenparish7056 which tele and pickup do you use . Thanks
@@robertph1787 59 custom shop those pickups are hand wound by one of feders pickup winders in the fifties they got her out of retirement for a limited run
@@glenparish7056 that's great. Sound neck pickup is very suitable to me
You are a cracking guitarist . I wish I had half your skill. Love the Telecaster ..
Those middle position licks are exactly what I play in that position. Sounds great.
Whoa...brilliant rundown of the many virtues of the Tele! The cool thing is, with the amp setup properly as you do here, one can do the same thing with a Stratocaster, or a Les Paul, etc., etc.--even one pickup Juniors can exhibit a great range of tones by manipulating the volume & tone, plus where & how you pick--it's all about letting them _breathe_ a bit!
*breathe
(agreed)
A 335-type semi-hollow with coil splitting rules them all, imho
