Our buddy J.D. Simo in his element; a 1951 Fender Nocaster through a vintage Fender Vibrolux. The Nocaster has been refinished but is in otherwise incredible condition, very resonant, and the pickups are simply wonderful. The Vibrolux is clean as well, and it screams! Both are currently available, give us a call or email for more information! And be sure to check out SIMO via the link below!

I’m surprised JD doesn’t play the tele more. It’s such a natural fit for his playing style
The wife and I spent a week in Nashville and man did I ever get an education… Just listen to some of the Interviews J.D. has done.. his knowledge of how and where the Blues music came from is impressive to say the least.. right now I can’t get enough J.D. Simo..
I just.love to see him play.. nothing more to say. He bends them right 🤠🔥
JD is from chicago like myself and now lives in Nashville, picking up a lot of studio work as of late. he's a friend and he is bad ass !!
i definitely see him around town alot.really nice young man as well
Nothing beats the old telecasters.
He doesn’t miss a single note. This is what you call “Professional Grade” and that guitar/amp combo is to die for!
This guy is my new favorite guitar player. His playing in Don Kelly's band is outstanding. Really great performer, too.
This is the best Fender Tele tone I have ever heard. JD - you are truly an inspiration and one heck of a player! Please schedule Vancouver Canada into your next tour..
Amazing, the quantity and quality of notes he gets out of that thing, without diminishing the supply! Like spinning straw into gold!
Man it's just got that ' Quacky ' sound............just BEAUTIFUL!!! Plus the J-Man is REALLY PUTTING HER THROUGH HER PACES.........🎸💚
that is some world class guitar playing
Touch, tone, phrasing, the man has it all!
Cant you hear me Knockin. 4:23.
One of the best riffs ever
Yeah! good taste dude!
I stop by Carter Vintage whenever lm in Nashville.Hella playin from J.D.
He picked the shit out of that thing! Amazing range of sounds from such a simple guitar
Simo is a master of squeezing tones out of any guitar; he works that tone control to the max ...
It’s not a simpele guitar, it’s the guitar that started it all. Leo got it right the first time...
The Tele tops them all.
If you could only have one guitar the Tele would cover it all!!
So wonderful. Reminds my of the stuff Albert Lee did with Jon Lord.
This is pure tele sound! Great playing!
I wanna play like that when I grow up. :-)
Beautiful tones and some of the best lead playing I've ever heard,, love the nod to the Stones. Awesome amp/guitar combo!
this guy is amazing
JD is the man!!! Such a great player!!!
so nice tone and play
Every number he plays goes together good with Telecaster. Perfect!
Best guitar ever made for me. Won´t change in my Life.
Perfect choice for player, song, Axe n Amp.
To repeat what someone said below, your Tele tone is the finest I’ve ever heard. You are an inspiration. I have a MIM fender 50s roundworn Tele that is my favorite guitar ever and a 66 vibrolux. I am going to work twice as hard after listening to you play. Thanks for posting that video!
actually love his playing, dynamic and engaging
totally great tele playing
I love it. Just started playing right at the beginning of the video. Exactly what the title says, a nocaster played through a Vibrolux, and that's what we all came to see and it's what you showed from the very beginning. No long intro talking for several minutes, no "hey guys, I'm gonna rattle on for 15 minutes talking about the amp and guitar before I start playing..." You just delivered. Thank you!
J.D. Simo is such a sweet player. I could listen to him all day! :)
Well, that has to be the best Tele demo of all time, period. And the amp ain't bad..
Sounds great 👍 Nashville baby!!!! Nobody fools around in Nashville 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
I hope your store is hooking JD up for doing all of these great demos!
I don't know about anyone else, but d'aint nothin like Fender's reverb? Just unmistakably creamy and distinctive!
What an amazing guitarist,you totally ROCK! A total inspiration for me on guitar.
You are the best guitar player I have ever heard doing any demo for anybody, PERIOD! Thank you for sharing your music with us mere mortals.
Quite awesome to think that beautiful guitar has probably spent the better part of 70 years waiting to be played like that by a true master of the Tele sound. I'm blown away by the tones he got out of it, and his fantastic playing. I have a hand built Tele with custom shop '51 Nocaster pups in it, and even that doesn't come close to this. Really made my day hearing this, thank you JD Simo!
I’d be willing to bet that your CS Tele would sound just as incredible if J.D. played it!
Thank you for the tour!
I played Gibsons for years until I discovered the FUN of playing tele's. Gibson=lazy noodling. Tele= put your soul into the guitar and it responds.
When the player and equipment are deserving of each other.
All of you guys watching this video..... go watch JD Simo with the SIMO band. This lad is no joke.
Oh, the reverb at 4:24. Love it
Sensational playing! Great touch, attack and sound. Simple and powerful.
What a combo (JD) et all
So awesome!!
this video has completely sold me on the idea of the broadcaster blend wiring which this has....what a great wiring...it gives you way more versatility than other teles...plus it still functions like a modern tele just different controls..and if you wanna play bass..you can on the neck pickup but still have your normal neck pickup in the middle position...your normal bridge on the bridge position and if you want the middle chirpy sound...just turn the tone control wide open or however much you want...the only thing is you lose the ability to tame the highs in all positions on the tone control ...but i never use them anyway...so it wouldn't affect me..but just so ppl know who are wondering *how did he get that middle position sound out of the bridge pickup* is cause 50 to 52 broadcasters were wired different...its called broadcaster blend wiring look it up if you interested
i figured some dumbass would coment on wiring or some stupid shit
You can blend wire a modern tele with whatever latest greatest pick-ups you can find and you will not duplicate that sound. 98% of it is JD, the other 2% is tge guitar and amp. Neither of them are can be duplicated.
Great picking. Love the color of the tele
Holy moly. Such taste
That was killer. Beautiful equipment in the hands of the master. Bliss!
Do we need something more? Absolutely no! What an artist Simo is.
Best Telecaster player I've ever seen
fantastic J.D.
Incredible guitar, superb playing, thanks!
Awesome demo! Well done indeed!
Makes me yearn even more for electric guitar instruments on rock and country music radio and not so much singing all the time!
Sweetness ! Sweet guitar , sweet amp , sweet player ! 👍
Beautiful tone and superb playing.
He makes that thing quack
He was holding back.
A mark of a true pro
Awesome!!! This is proof positive that Leo Fender got it right the first time!
Most folks play the same old licks on youtube. Except him.
haysfordays ...he plays REALLY old licks! Very legit stuff, and he has soul!
This fucking guy is great
So, once I drove a friend to Nashville to sell his amp.... wound up having pizza with JD, Ed King, several other pickers, and the most famous of all Biscuit Man Erik Martin!! Ended up at Carters guitar store. The whole gang of us, they even let Ollie and Petey in! What a great day.
Yep that's that Fender thing
Beautiful
Can't...stop....watching....jesus....JD Simo fucking RULES !!!!!! PLEASE COME TO OTTAWA PLEEEEEAAAAASSSSEEEEE !!!!!!!!!!
Awesome playing
Awesome chops!
love a vibrolux...had a silverface but it was modded...some day I will get another..
Wow...lots of tone coming out of that one! :)
A guitar made around the year I was born. Maybe that has something to do with how much I like its sound. Nice & skilful demo of its capabilities, which are many and IMO unbeaten.
Pretty fine! Around 4:30 he spins the tone knob a bit, picks with a bit more attack and it sounds like a different guitar
See that kids that's what you call talent.
Beautiful and awesome sound.....and the guitar player?.....SOUNDSGREAT......!!!!!!!
Can anyone here recommend artists similar to the licks/songs he's playing here? The more I play and hear other people play Telecaster, the more I want learn it. I grew up playing 90s rock with Gibsons, but I am now convinced I don't need any other guitar but a Tele. If I have to, I'll just learn from this video, but I enjoy learning songs.
Magic sam..kid of. Howlin wolf as well.
Steve Cropper (played on Stax records), Wilco Johnson (Dr Feelgood), James Burton. If you want to learn how to play these styles though, there's a tutor on youtube - th-cam.com/channels/p7Ou7C15WhEKc9pgxQkSYg.html - who can teach you a lot
Nice tone!
Nice JD !!!
nice tone!
lovely demo
Awesome playing Simo.. would love a few lessons on these songs..
@3:11 started to kill me inside! just that riff/segment was awesome 😢! #thanksJDSIMO
Awesome!
I need this !
As someone else said, world class guitar playing. But I think I almost bought that guitar in 1987. It was at Voltage Guitars in Hollywood. Identical from what I can see here. '51 Nocaster. Played like this one plays. $800. Yeah. I'd just moved to Los Angeles and had about a 15K nestegg to start a new life. DIdn't want to start off by buying vintage guitars so I passed. I hope this isn't the same guitar because that would really hurt as I play my Roadworn Mexican Tele. lol. Great playing though.
Completely , Absolutely , Burned the Barn down........
All the great players have a Telecaster or 2 and usually some kind of Gretsch .
This is inaccurate but okay.
To playerX The song from around 4:23 is not Zeppelin. It is Can't you hear me knockin', and then Midnight Rambler, by the Stones
Best Demo EVER!!!
GREAT sounds. GREAT playing. Would have LOVED to have heard the in-between tone ...
If you are wondering, that's a Twin he's sitting on. He must be playing through the amp that's in front of him.
I'm no lawyer, but I think if someone comes and plays your guitar like that, and they comment that they like it/wish they had it, I'm pretty sure you're legally obligated to give it to them
Don't know the songs excatly but DANG!!!! Son ! I like your pickin. That's how it's done. Everybody plays about three notes then stomps some stupid distortion pedal and I'm gone but that was what I like to hear. Kick the foot lights out Hoss
oh suzie Q , creedence clearwater revival
Actually he palm mutes ,terrible technique for chicken pickin, and he will tell you himself, but that's what he had to do to keep from starving
gus dupree if everyone stuck to the same technique then no one would stand out from the crowd. The fact that J.D. palm mutes makes his country playing sound totally different from anyone else’s...and the fact that he can still keep up his speed with the best of them speaks volumes about his ability.
Amazing playing and tone! I would love to hear the rationale for the three people who gave this a thumbs down...
imlostinthewoods jealousy
jealousy, envy and sloth...
It was Guthrie Trapp, Tom Bukovac and Phil X!
Holy shit, that was impressive
That first song is at the tip of my tongue !! Driving me crazy!! Lol

Monster player
great playing.much praise bro...I wish I could get my other fingers involved...I can just do black Dunlop 1mm pick and that's it.maybe my injuries are an excuse or maybe I just cant learn new stuff...I do learn more note and rhythmic vocabulary but I cant employ the extra fingers that you and guys like the guitologist can.and mrs smith.thanks for the inspiration and good sounding tunes
Yes!
Hi jack white youre playing is really good bro 😎👍✨
That thing is creeping on 75 years old man ! Sometimes you cant improve on the first idea , if perfect exists, here it is. Rip leo fender
Show off...and I enjoyed being showed. Can't make my Vibrolux do that. Maybe next life.
wow , some nice playing
