  • Let's recreate the sound of an iconic genre that I refuse to let fade into history! James Bond/Surf Rock/Spaghetti Western all have a unique sound that transports you to a time and place you lived vicariously through your favorite films. In this video I'm going to show you how to get the tone, rhythm and feel of this genre. Tune up and plug in, because by the end of this one you'll be recreating the soundtracks of your childhood. I'll be using a few different electric guitars for this demonstration and we'll see how the tone translates. Let me know what you think!

    I'm 75 (I know...old man) and I'm still playing mostly Ventures stuff. While I agree that you can approximate that surf sound with virtually any combination of guitar and a quality amp, your best bet is to use both Fender amps and guitars. Specifically, the Fender Deluxe Reverb, Twin Reverb or Showman series amps. Reissues using the period correct tone stacks are the best bets. As for guitars, I'm convinced, after much experimentation, that guitars ( for lead at least) would be a Telecaster, a Jaguar, a Moserite or most likely a Jazzmaster. I favor the Jazzmaster because, aside from its modern versions, Fender has reissued afordable mid 60's models. These suggestions, are only one man's opinion. However, I know what instruments Bob Bogle and Nokie Edwards played in the early days and I guess that I may be a bit biased. What ever hardware you choose, have a good time playing. That's what it's all about. SURFS UP.

      Are you familiar with the fairly new line of Fender Tonemaster amps? I never thought I would use a solid state amp, but I picked up the Tonemaster Twin Reverb and it replicates a tube amp perfectly. It actually knows that when the volume is turned up say at 5 or higher that there should be a little tube break up and this amp duplicates this perfectly. There is a watt setting knob and you can set it at 80, 40, 22, 12 or even as little as 5 watts. With my 70 Strat it sounds as surfy as it gets. Built in reverb and vibrato. Great amp!

    Something about this exact sound has pulled me in since I was a child, and I'm not even from the eras these styles were popular. I'm 30 and have been developing my guitar and production sound around this style, especially more recently. I got my first electric guitar when I was 12 and was so disappointed it didn't have a whammy bar. I thought all Fender/Squire strat styles had that feature and was too young to know better. I finally traded that guitar in and upgraded to one with a whammy when I was about 23 and it couldn't have fulfilled me more.
    I fell in love with the Beach Boys when I was about 8 years old, and then my grandma had a 50's surf rock classics CD she always played in the car and I realized that's what I loved so much about the beach boys and the James Bond soundtracks. I've been obsessed ever since. Hoping to bring a modern revival to this style with my new production work 🎸🤙

      All of mine do. Whether or not the trem bar is screwed into the bridge or not is the only difference.

    • @chillscosby
      @chillscosby ปีที่แล้ว

      @@fredflintstone3956 see I thought the same thing too and ended up going out and purchasing the bar just to get home to screw it in and realize it just wasn't a feature on that guitar. But it was like the cheapest version of a strat from a reputable brand at the time cause I was a kid and my parent didn't wanna risk spending any more money on an instrument for me that what my beginner setup cost. I later realized the difference between the $100 squires and $150-200 ones is whether or not the bridge is designed to bend.
      Ended up gifting that whammy bar to a friend just last year after holding onto it for 15+ years, cause they own a decent Fender strat and I noticed it had the hole to screw one in but she didn't even realize it. So I was thrilled to "upgrade" her guitar to take advantage of one of my favorite features ☺️

    Thank you so much for this video. I had a big smile on my face the whole time I watched it, and then watched some Ventures videos on TH-cam. I learned all of the techniques on a Silvertone guitar (which was actually a DanElectro). Sears sold the guitar and case, with a built in amp for 69.95. It was quite a rig. Yes, the amp was built into the flat Fender-like guitar case. The DanElectro was built ut of pressboard. It was quite the rig, and I drove the salesmen in Sears nuts. Thanks for a great trip down memory lane.

    I find the DeArmond Dynasonic single-coils better for this sound. Virtually all Filtetrons are just too mellow and tame as Mr. Harrison discovered and soon left behind. Also, the neck pickup picked close to the bridge is the real Duane twang, but whatever makes you smile is just fine.
    Speaking of the ultimate twang, I understand that the James Bond theme was played by Vic Flick (yes, his real born name), a Brit, on a natural-finished ca.1939 Clifford Essex Paragon De Luxe, a small, London-made archtop, non-cutaway acoustic strung with heavy flat-wound strings with a De Armond clip-on pickup into a '59 Fender Vibrolux.
    Some people swear it's a Tele or a Strat into a Deluxe Reverb or a Twin. Nah.
    Mr. Flick played this guitar on the scores of every Bond film from "Dr. No" to "Diamonds Are Forever", as well as on "Midnight Cowboy", "The Return of the Pink Panther", and T.V. shows, “The Avengers” and “The Prisoner”, and many others.
    He played guitar for The Beatles' producer, George Martin, Burt Bacharach, Herman’s Hermits, Henry Mancini, Jimmy Page, Cliff Richard, Diana Ross, and Nancy Sinatra. He played the guitar parts on Petula Clark’s “Downtown,” Dusty Springfield’s “I Only Want to Be With You,” Shirley Bassey's "Goldfinger, and on many Tom Jones recordings beginning with “It’s Not Unusual” and “What’s New, Pussycat?”
    He also played on the first two Beatles films, and in " A Hard Day’s Night", he notably played “Ringo’s Theme ("This Boy") using a ’62 Strat into the Vibrolux.
    For a guitarist that billions have heard so many times, he is virtually unknown. That's show biz for you.

    Good video ! Still chasing that sound...never gets old. Practice daily on either: Gretsch G6120 Nashville, G7594T White Falcon, G&L Comanche, or Ibanez UV 7 String, sometimes Danelectro Baritone. Can't beat the old Danelectro single coil sound for the "Spaghetti Western" sound. Wish I'd picked up a Danelectro 7 String when they were making them. By the time I figured the Baritone was like a 7 string with the high E string missing Danelectro quit making them and I was out of $$. Use a 1992 Peavey 5150 Stack thru a TC Electronics Flashback X4, SolidGoldFX Surf Ride 3, & Boss CS-3, Compression Sustainer.

    Big, snarly, hi-output humbuckers are amazing pickups to explore clean tones with! I won't blame anyone for chasing Classic Rock tones with a pair of humbuckers (done it myself!) but I think the wonderfully, chimey side of the humbucker should be explored more. I'll go so far as saying the P 90 edges out the humbucker as the king of the Rock tones. Of course, at the end of the day, if you're havin' fun with whatever guitar you have, that's all that matters!

    Great sounds! After 2 years I’m sure someone else has said this, but I reckon Hank Marvin had a big influence on Bond/Spaghetti Western. Vic Flick played a hollow body jazz guitar on Dr No, but changed to a Strat, as did Allessandro Allesandroni, who also played the classical guitar and did the whistling for Morricone. If you also have Edda Dell'Orso singing that’s a big help!

I really hope you get to see this because I genuinely believe it would be something that would touch your heart. Marty McFly busting out Johnny G Good when I was 3 is what drew me to guitar. So I can feel ya there's music that will inform you that you are indeed a musician. Good luck and God Speed

    What about the Marlboro Man sound? Glen Campbell's solo sound on Wichita Lineman is reminiscent to the sound in the Marlboro cigarette TV commercial. I've tried to imitate that sound on a Gretsch Nashville, a Fender Strat and Jazzmaster, a Les Paul. and a Rickenbacker with no luck. Do you think Glen was using a baritone guitar to get that sound? I would appreciate your advice.

    If you don't have a vibrato arm just hold the guitar's body with your right hand and add some pressure from the left toward inside the guitar. I never really use that arm anymore and take my epi sg instead of switching to the strat every time.
