In this episode of Sound Like, Rabea & Matt try to revisit British boogie rock band Status Quo, this time by busting the bank!
Taking on the roles of Rick Parfitt & Francis Rossi, there can be only one guitar for the job...Custom Shop Telecasters! The guys head over to the store to pick out some incredible looking Fender Teles along with some Marshall & Vox amplifiers to help recreate that classic rock tone.
Let us know how you think the guys did? How close can they get while Busting The Bank?

#Andertons #SoundLike #StatusQuo
Here in Mexico there is a city called Ciudad Neza where Status Quo is the biggest rock band on earth, greetings!
That is so f**king cool
Yes it is Iml!!!
@@disharmonymictlantecutli8408 wasin Bogota last year and the Latin music scene is soo good, still organic and passionate,two qualities the west is letting slip fast.
My first Quo gig was 1980, it was my first ever gig, and i won the tickets in a bet with my friend, who's dad was friends with their manager.
He also got me all the albums up until Just Supposin', all vinyl and all first editions and i still have them.
Hopefully i will get to your city next visit assuming the pandemic doesn't kill travelling.
@@dingushussey4100 How lucky you are to have seen them that year, and when you want to come you are welcome friend!
@@disharmonymictlantecutli8408 South America is my favourite part of the world and only suffers from have a dilinquent northern neighour with an orange leader.
I will be back in Latin America as soon as i can.
Gary moore by busting the bank would be a great one for the new year
Does Anderton's have any of his signature models or a reissue 59's?
@Cutrepon his signature les paul is discontinued
and his hard rock period in 79 - 89
Josh Wheeler yes !!!!
Josh Wheeler too late. Kirk Hammett already busted that bank
As a Quo fan very impressive! But if Iâm nitpicking just bugs me how they play the parts wrong for every song đ but a great video none the less rock on đ€đ»
They haven't done thier homework on this one.đ€Ș
@@marcusrogers6917 that they havenât
I particularly noticed the riff for Caroline - the last phrase was just completely wrong!
Have you thought it might be done on purpose to stop copyright?
@@fatdaduk they do every other band correctly and Quo has very much next to no media presence on YT. If that were the case there wouldnât be a load of channels posting Quo tunes all over the place.
Crikey! Matt's upped his soloing game to the max since the Ultimate Blues Rig video!
rock on boy!
Saki Miyu Very kind! Thank you man!
Good to see Matt let loose
yip ..I noticed a lift in his runs
I know right, it sounded awesome and that run at 9:04 was just incredible
Oh my goodness! I was 17 when Caroline was released... I have neglected the Quo for way too long. I just spent half an hour in CZcams rock-heaven watching videos from 1973 to 2017. Back in the day it wasn't very cool to admit you liked the Quo with stuff like Yes, Bowie, ELP and Soft Machine in the mix. Now I'm open to pretty much everything, and wow, what a fantastic, pure and punchy rock sound. Just some of the best riffs ever, and great vocal harmonies to boot.
Thanks for stirring up memories of that 6th-form party where I met someone special ;)
I love Bowie and I Love Soft Machine. I listened to Yes a lot (ELP not so much - these things can happen). But my joy of listening to music for hours and hours in a row started when I was ten years old and my mom let me choose my first album. First I wanted a Sweet album, 'cos that's what I listened to since I was 5 years old, but I bought Rockin' all over the world'. After that I bought nothing but Status Quo for a looooong time.
I don't listen to the old albums as much as I used to, but still, everytime I hear the opening of their first live album, I can't help but being happy and feeling energetic. Man, I was addicted to the Quo.
@Mark JT: Priceless. I had to Google the exact release date â73 (that made me 14 - we werenât at the same 6th form parties...) but I reckon somewhere in the past you had an RAF greatcoat and an obscure album under your arm đđđ
In the 70âs My mate John subjected me to Yes, ELP and that bloody awful King Crimson record. All I wanted was emotion lifting Quo rock. Thank you to Andertons for pulling me back into the best era for music ever. It'll be on the Apple CarPlay later today under the âAhh the â70s Playlistâ.
On the live album in glasgow 1976
Steven Murphy ; That's the one!
@ Mark JT. Back in the day it wasn't very cool if you liked Quo?? OK, I was around 12 or 13 in NZ when Caroline was released and remember hearing it for the first in a record store on headphones at full blast. Totally euphoric moment. My older brother intro'd me to Quo during Piledriver the year before and I was totally obsessed and let everyone know that. I actually lost interest in the band after In the Army Now came out in 1986. In their latter years You would see middle aged men over 50 bringing blow up guitars to their gigs and embarrassing themselves like the cliche uncles dancing at their nieces weddings. I think it's not very cool to admit you ARE a Quo fan in today's climate tbh.
That was my favourite âSound likeâ . Really enjoyed it. Very talented lads who make those very expensive guitars worth there money!
Just one of the tastiest sounds like with Top tier Tele's and two great amps. Me like. TY for your video's, they bring joy and knowledge in mass.
Sometimes all that is needed are two custom shop tele's and some old school amps to crank up!! Glad you are enjoying the videos!
Man...I love that band and I love that tone
Said it before and saying it again, Matt is an underrated player
WarriorofChaos20 đ
@@mattwhornby oh my gosh, he saw my comment! Amazing day!
Literally some of the best tones you all have ever achieved.
It's just fun watching you two interact and of course the playing and sound is always great!
They've used the old sound like theme song đđ
Never heard of Status Quo. Recognize almost all the riffs. XD
In terms of numbers of hits they're basically the most successful band ever yet no one knows who they are, it's so weird haha
Rabea hugging that marshall was a glorious sight
Playing Quo makes you smile. Can't beat a bit of Quo.
Liked the video and I haven't even watched it yet. It was the Quo that got me into rock music... and Queen. A whole new world was then there to explore.
Looks like they had a lot of fun making this one.
Sound like the Darkness by busting the bank, please.
Their new album is incredible!
Don't know how Status Quo managed all those years without catastrophic wrist injuries with all those blues 5th/6th power chords đ These rigs sounded mint though!
@ Aiden Underhill. And don't forget Rick's fingers. He used to have extra heavy gauge strings.
And barred chords
Possibly the best smile factor one ever!!
I have a â79 25th Anniversary Strat that spent most of its life bouncing around the Caribbean as a house beater guitar in dive bar open jams that is thoroughly worn in and it has grime built around the frets just like on the custom shop that Rabea is playing. Probably the only time Iâd be able to prove Rabea wrong about anything guitar related.
Ah, classic. Status Quo riffs bring back some memories.
Without further ado:
Sound like Prince!
Sound like Jeff Buckley!
Sound like The Police!
Police!
Yep Prince đ
@@jokullsnr8085 Thought for sure they had done them considering a search on CZcams autocompletes very fast.
it's shocking how they haven't done Andy Summer and Sting yet!
@@KeeperOfPoops You are everywhere!
Now the one we all need : the funk metal king. Nuno.
nice video! can we have a sound like for
Adam Clayton (U2) - without busting the bank
Robin Trower - without busting the bank
Vivian Campbell (Dio era) - without busting the bank
Peter Frampton - without busting the bank
Slash (solo career) - without busting the bank
Brian May (Queen) - BY busting the bank
also i don't think Francis plays fenders anymore, he has a different set of guitars now i think
Trower on a budget of ÂŁ1000 would probably consist of:
Origin 20 (ÂŁ329.00)
Small Stone (ÂŁ67.00)
Squier Stratocaster Classic Vibe 70s (ÂŁ329.00)
Fulltone Fulldrive (ÂŁ175.00)
Vox 845 Wah (ÂŁ59.00)
TOTAL - ÂŁ959
@Null and Void their budget is ÂŁ1500 so they could go for a Player strat with a maple neck like his signature guitar
@@KeeperOfPoops Hell, if you've got that much you can add the wahfull to the mix, too. His setup is pretty simple so it isn't bad to recreate on a budget.
'Ow are you then, alright?!
Of all the days, today Frame just sold his original Tele in an auction. It's so hard to sound like Status Quo now unless you spend an absolute fortune and get VOX's, Marshals and Tele's from the 60's cause the newer stuff just isn't the same. Then there is the matter of all the tweaks done to both tele's, not original picks ups or bridges, the size of the strings Rick used. Very tough job but you guys gave it a good go. Nice!! P.S. Matt should of been playing the Rockin' All Over the World solo :P
I went to see them in the late 80s. They were such a powerful band in person, thoroughly enjoyable.
good to see Matt gets to play some lead .
He first did lead on Ultimate Blues Rig, but this was a massive step up from that video
I love this band and so happy u did them by busting the bank , u sounded amazing
PLEASE DO âSOUND LIKE THE CLASHâ it will make my year
Sound like King gizzard and the lizard wizard would be the bomb guys!
I second this motion.
Good luck with finding some microtonal guitars! Rabea and Matt with a fret saw and some wire đ
@@grahamstead2680 hell yeah! Get that bananaaaaaaaa
@@grahamstead2680 revelation has a jazzmaster type of guitar with microtonal frets. not that expensive and plays like a charm.
They should just pick one album, maybe nonagon or rats nest
That Caroline intro was really on point!
Sounded good, but he played the wrong notes.
Damn Matthew. Solo game is on point. More of that sir.
definitley better than his soloing in the Ultimate Blues Rig Video
David Mcerlane Cheers man! đ€
@@mattwhornby sounds like The Shadows. Cant beat a bit of Hank Marvin.
If I were younger I would come to Andertons and buy new equipment. I've been playing for 51 years and now I have sindrom of carpal tunnel on the palm of my left hand and it hurts so I can't play. I have 6 guitars and now I just look at them and clean them. You guys are great.
Zadar-Croatia-Adriatic coast
well done. well done. just a glorious sound, quo or not.
Matt's tone was really gorgeous, with Rabea close second. Well done!
Rocking all over the world was written by John Fogerty of CCR .Quo covered it .â€â€Rossiâs green tele was originally sunburst .then he stripped it ,turned it black didnât like it stripped it and painted it with Ronseal green wood paint /stain ,only did the front as he had to put it back together to gig it .so he never did the back .thatâs why the back is still bare wood .and the edges are still black ..fun fact for you .â€â€
hé also drilled a hole in it, so go ahead guys
and parfitt has a p90 in his tele
Great stuff gentlemen! Good sounds and very nice rig! Well played.
Great to see you guys having so much fun with this tone! Sounds amazing.
John frusciante on a budget, in honor of his return
i think frank reynolds should stop using that toe knife
Glad they still have a job!
Breezecam No heâs not
@@breezecam1099 your talking out of your backside pal...,!
@UCw5c55t-wpxucQg2CFViaAw Hendrix & Gilmore are not god's, they are human, very loose term...!
Love to see a tribute to Steve Clark from Def Leppard both on a budget and unlimited from High n Dry to Hysteria...keep up the good work
Matt!!!!!!! Shredding. Nicely played leads, man!!!
Great stuff and great playing. What a band!
Every episode is like just watching Rabea and Matt doing a jam session.
Another great episode of Sounds like, way to stay Status Quo.
That's gotta be just a FUN band to play ... every song just has a joy to it!
About time for a Rush BY busting the bank
I'd love to hear a UFO episode.
so would i, Michael Schenker is an absolute legend!
Plssssssss omg
100%. Schenker has a style and sound of his own. One of the most recognizable players in the history of rock 'n' roll. I'm going to say (as much as I admire Rabea's playing ability and impeccable style) he won't be able to sound like him! Consider that a challenge!
In my opinion, all Teles should look relic'ed! All of them!
I really enjoyed this one. Sometimes I felt that there was a bit too much gain, but in the end it sounded great.
Absolutely too much gain, Quo always played relatively clean/ point of break up on albums with a touch more live.
Sound Like Scorpions!!!
Yes!
Yeah please !
Yesssss
Hats off for stating thoughts about the ridiculous fretboard wear, just too much false relic
I think them worn fret boards look ridiculous
I don't mind the actual fake fretboard wear, but like Rabea I hate hate HATE the tea staining around the frets. I guess it's supposed to mimic dirty finger cheese, but it doesn't look like any wear/dirt I've ever seen.
Amazed Rabea didn't go for the green relic that's currently on the site, but that rhythm tone Matt has is spot on!
12 gold bars is a compilation album
Great job this time out. These are much much more fun to watch when you both are really into the band. Sound like... Threshold and Social Distortion would be fantastic.
Fantastic job guys. Rabea's rig was spot on particularly.
FyI Caroline was on the Hello! Album!
Very cool. I also have the mini jcm800. The "low input + preamp AND master on full" - setting is just great. With a tubescreamer in front THIS is the sound. thx for the input on this. U guys really rock it :))))
YEA!! Lol Bea's face while playing today looked like he was loving making this video!
I absolutely adore both teleâs..!!
Man, there are some glorious sounds in this video
Sounds like is literally the thing I most look forward to watching each week. Not a Quo fan but still very enjoyable.
I now think it is time to do EVH BY busting. The without busting was one of my all time faves and I think itâs time to take it to the next level. đđ»
EVH Bumblebee Replica or one of the higher end Wolfgang's
Marshall JCM800 Studio head and cab
Wampler Pinnacle
MXR Phase 90 (Eruption, Panama, Mean Street)
MXR M117 Flanger (Hear About It Today, Unchained, Ain't Talking About Love)
MXR Stereo Chorus
MXR Echoplex Delay
Dunlop Cry Baby Wah (Poundcake)
and of course a power drill for Poundcake
Iâve never wanted a tele more than right now.
From America: love the Yorkshire accent (and pudding)! Never apologize!!
I'm also "from" (currently in) America, _and_ actually from Yorkshire, and yes hearing some nice Yorkshire accents is always a joy on YT. :)
Look at the smiles!!
16:20 _"Right, well me..."_ ...cuts to song!! đ€Ł
that Vox sounds great
I would love to see sound like The Cure or something like that late 80's darkwave . Cheers.
For a second there I could have sworn that I heard 'Smoke on the GET THE F**K OUT OF MY GUITAR STORE YOU CHEESY RIFFSTER!'
both Parfitt (RIP) and Rossi use a Vox AC 30 in an isolation box mixed into the FOH. The Marshall stacks are for show and most of the cabs have lights in!
The object of the video is to sell gear (obviously) but I don't understand why people with 'proper' amps need pedals. I'm getting old, but, 'too loud' is such snowflake horseshit. Yes, there is such a thing as too loud, as personified by every low rent gig you attend having no idea that after a certain point PA's turn to white noise and carrying on regardless. You know the ones, where you can't hear anything the singer is saying and the guitar channel sounds like a hairdryer set low. But. Any home player can tell you that if you run 20 or 30 watts in to a 2x12 or a 4x12 and push the power tubes by turning the master up to around 1/2 way, you 'plateau' in awesome tone around 90db. Which is only too loud if you stand right in front of it. Off-axis its absolutely fine. I do not have hearing loss or tinnitus after 30 years .. !
Think you nailed it lads.
The sweet did some Good rock in the 70s
Hugely underated band and sadly only really remembered for their 70's glam radio friendly catalogue. Set me free and Sweet F.A are two of my faves!!
Sound like Judas Priest
Sound like Ritchie Blackmore
Sound like Blur
Sound like My Chemical Romance
Sound like Lynryd Skynyrd
Sound like Pearl Jam by busting
Sound like Nirvana under 500
Sorry, nobody can sound like Ritchie Blackmore. He's unique.
Brian May by busting the bank
Pleaaase!
If Matt's supposed to "be" Parfitt, he should also have the chorus pedal and play the Whatever You Want intro.
you nailed this one..many thanks..and rock on .....
Ty Tabor and the guitar tone from the first King's X!
I would love to see a system of a down by busting the bank
USA Telecaster with 14 - 56 gauge strings and Ricks power through an AC30 wall is priceless.
Awesome rigs, those are some beautiful teles right there! One can only dream of this kind of gear.
As far as sounding like Status Quo goes, you did quite well. The one thing I noticed is during Whatever You Want, Rabea's rig was missing a bit of that treble, which could probably be fixed easily by adjusting the EQ-200 and adding a bit of treble back in. Other than that, it sounded great!
Those early 70's Quo crunch tones were actually HiWatt amps turned up full to distort.
And Rick Parfitts original recording of Caroline on Hello! was Gibson SG.
Fun old time rock and roll. Great riffs guys!
Excellent job. I was mad on Quo as a kid. Lost count of how many times I saw them live. Looks like you had a blast making this one.. :-) Would love to see a Steven Wilson or King Gizzard Sound like some time in the future. Cheers guys!
You Rocked It Guys đđđ¶đ¶đžSome Good Stuff Right There.
Great job guys! Sounds amazing.
< excellent! the more tele's the merrier the xmas >
5:04 There's always something funny to me about Rabea's childlike enthusiasm for this little JCM 800 and Matt's clear disapproval of it, lol
"20 watt Studio amp head and it's little matching cab. I might just do this!"
"It's not actually a matching cab but um..."
"How cool is this little thing!"
"It's quite big but yea. I dunno it's just on a thing..."
Sounds like the Quo! Nice job
Insanely awesome opening jam! Killer!
My friends dad used to Jamm with the quo years ago in a music hall in Cardiff he was a killer player who sadly passed away a couple of years ago.
wow .. what taste in gear guys ... these rigs are stupendous ! .. that doubler is odd ly good .. the chorus is outstanding pedal.
wonderful episode guys !!!!!!!!!!
Ironic how this video came out while I was listening to Status Quo
coincidence
Great Band
Just great sound and you two seemed to have a whale of a time playing this stuff!
I think a Sound Like Biffy By Busting is long overdue
My dad, rest his soul, was really into Status Quo and I always gave him slack for it. But listening to this perhaps I was a bit quick to judge... We used to listen to Deep Purple In Rock on road trips which desensitized me towards anything more mellow sounding
Ironically with In Rock Blackmore was trying to prove he was metal enough đ€ for whatever
czcams.com/video/zx-9b13wsXQ/video.html
Rossiâs Fender Tele was a 1957 model with a maple fretboard
This guitar was originally a sunburst, but was painted green in 1970.
Rossi paid ÂŁ75 for this guitar in 1968 and sold it as an unplayable guitar due to the sweat that had soaked into the wood over the 46 years, effectively softening the wood hence the different bridge combinations he used.
In 2020 the guitar was sold at auction with an estimated ÂŁ1000,000-ÂŁ150,000 with a winning bid of ÂŁ118,812.
Great video as always!
Iâd like to suggest Cry Of Love for a episode, a super underrated band that im sure many people would love! Their guitarist is amazing!
Great video!
Still hoping for a "Sound like Ramones"
Absolutely....! The Ramones are the benchmark...
