Greg's sense of humor can be heard in his playing. I love it.
Yep.
Salama Nicolas Haha so true !
Haha youâre right
"At the end of days, there'll be cockroaches and Telecasters." Absolutely CLASSIC Greg Koch. Best Captain Meets interview ever!
..the cockroaches will be playing the teles!! that was my fave moment too!!
And they will be in tune.
Don't forget that you can treat them like a farm animal and they'll be coming back for more!
Agreed. Best so far
đ
I went on a Greg Koch CZcams rampage after this video. Dude can play.
SamEricEdge - did you see Metal Poppins? If you haven't, search for it.
"Dude can play" is putting it VERY lightly. Greg Koch can play ANYTHING.......EVERY STYLE.......AND HE ABSOLUTELY HAS IT ALL MASTERED. So humble, and hilarious to talk to.......but an absolute monster on guitar.
Howabouthetruth I agree 100%. Dude can PLAY.
welcome to the family....
He did a live performance of âSpank Itâ several years ago - it was incredible.
I love how Lee does these videos with people. He lets the other person finish what they're saying and talk about themselves without interrupting them like many other people in Lee's position would. Also, he always seems fully intrigued by what the other person has to say. Much respect Lee.
Absolutely, well put.
Greg is a national treasure!
I donât know this guy (should crawl out of my metal-bubble more often, sorry guys), but 5 minutes in Iâm sold. This guy is a genius.
Same here. Iâm a hard rock & metal guy myselfâŠ. Koch, Johnny Hiland & Andy Wood are all not metal - but they are INCREDIBLE players.
Like Joe Bonamassa said about Greg "one of the best guitar players in the world, and an even better person." I've known Greg since 1995 and the guy is fantastic all the way around. Amazing person and a vicious guitar player.
I never get tired of listening to the Mansquatch!
Greg Koch is on a higher plain of guitar existence, very underrated. Been watching his channel for years and he just has a great picking style and technique all his own. He is very funny and would make a great TV personality.
Guitardudeguy 313 I donât want him on TV and he is not underrated .)
I was a manager and repairman in a Violin shop. We measured instrument specs down to a 1/10th of a millimeter using magnetic calipers because wood makes a massive difference in sound quality. Not only the type but rigidity and mass as well.
Listen to a European orchestra with instruments that average 150 years old, made of very well cured wood, then compare that to an Asian orchestra that has new instruments made in China. The difference in the instrument tone is astounding. I'm on tour working with an orchestra in Taiwan for the fourth time as I write this.
On an acoustic guitar, the wood clearly changes the sound, just between a cedar and spruce top, much less back, sides, and neck.
The first important thing to understand is that from an acoustic string instrument, all of the sound comes from the strings vibrating the wood, moving the air in tandem with the variations in sound wave reflection produced through reflection, diffusion, and reverberation.
This is undeniable science that's very easy to prove outside of opinionated internet amateurs.
The second important thing to understand is that from an electric instrument, the sound comes from the disruption of a magnetic field, which mostly occurs through the vibration of the metallic, ferrous strings, though the wood still makes a huge difference in tone because it also disrupts the magnetic field through ancillary resonance. Again, very easy to prove.
Also, the most important thing to understand is that literally, everything makes a tonal difference, from the wood to the cable length to the noise interference from stage lights to the altitude, temperature, and humidity of the physical location you are playing in.
There's a tone of acoustic engineering science directly related to environmental effects of sound, notably high-frequency loss over distance as calculated specifically, built into all professional line array PA systems, and again very easy to scientifically prove.
Put the most expensive pickups in a cigar box with a broomstick neck.
Does it sound like a professional guitar? What happened?
Does everything, including the strings, pickups, plectrum, wood, and environment, make a difference?
Including the wood?
Yes.
Agreeing with you. I own a Les Paul for 45 years: without changind anything since 1973, it sounds different just by the aging of the wood.
I am not sure most of the people commenting would hear a difference between a Stradivarius and a violin made in China.
Anyway... I agree that the music instruments industry (19 billion/year) is manipulating a lot of hype around marketing gizmos that end up disturbing people's opinions about what should sound best...
I also agree with you! Besides, the music should always come first, from the heart, regardless of technology. Those are just tools we use to share our feelings with each other.
Fable Club Yep⊠nice tools sometimes ;-)
Fable Club.........THANK YOU. That was the best "verbal explanation of scientific FACTS" concerning TONAL WOODS that I have ever read to date. As a guitarist ( electric AND acoustic ) since 1969, and playing guitar/harmonica & singing all at the same time professionally for nearly 2 decades in various rock/blues groups, and even solo or acoustic duets all over eastern central Florida spanning 3 large counties, I can say with absolute certainty, that tone wood DOES make a difference in WELL-MADE guitars. As a matter of fact, years ago, I learned to shop for my electric guitars by play-testing them UN-PLUGGED ONLY. ( You had me cheering when you said: "ANCILLARY RESONANCE" )........I found that the electric guitar that sings/resonates/sustains the most WHILE UN-PLUGGED, definitely do so head & shoulders over other test guitars unplugged. Electric guitars with this unplugged capability over others, also possess A VERY DEFINITIVE WARM & DISTINGUISHING TONE that the seasoned ear can hear with NO amplification whatsoever. Certain choices of pickups, amps, etc, even strings, will ENHANCE certain instruments. Newbies to this approach for "shopping for electric guitars" should be warned NOT to be fooled by simple "VIBRATION" often associated with poorly made instruments. I've picked up TERRIBLE sounding, poorly made electric guitars that were rather "loud" when played unplugged.........but only due to something simply vibrating, and those crappy/loud unplugged guitars had TERRIBLE tone, and did NOT naturally sustain for very long either. So anyone reading this who is new to this approach: LEARN THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN NATURAL SWEET TONE/RESONANCE/SUSTAIN.........vs "VIBRATION" from a crappy guitar unplugged. Cheers. ................PS: ....and for all you tone deaf "techies" who still refuse to believe in tone woods.......why don't you try playing CLEAN, NON-DISTORTED TONES ON REALLY WELL-MADE GUITARS for once in your life, to "hopefully" discover what many folks like myself already know. I say "hopefully" because most if not all people who are tone deaf, will NEVER hear the differences in tonal woods anyway.
nefarious power I'm not stupid enough⊠I'm full of doubts ;-)
âI canât play all those notes so I donât want to hear someone play all those notesâ NAILED it
0:01 *hits the like button

And you thought Koch was joking when he called Lee "The Demon Seed".
I did the same thing.
Haha...same
Steamboat Willie - I pipped you at 0.009 ...
Most underrated guitar player in the world!
If Gregory Kochery was to ever move to England, Iâd think heâd make a great addition to the demonstrators on the Andertons channel. Imagine him and Danish Pete!!! My god man the licks.
Imagine the jokes
The Gospel of Mark I think he makes the Danish fella look like a beginner to be honest,he's insane !
That would be insanely awesome
It would be so epic that it can never happen. The fabric of spacetime itself would be torn asunder.
Adam mc Yeh up until he does, I'm jazz fusioning 3 notes at a time, laughing cause I did to many tricks. No he's awesome.
I think we need a "The captain meets Rick Graham"
Best "Captain Meets..." yet!! This could've gone on for 3 hours and I would watch every second.
Greg's flow of ideas both musical and verbal is well....pretty unique!
Lee, total home run interview!
afterwards i hadn't even realized that id been smiling the entire video. Love Greg and I love the captain interview videos
I saw the length of the video and thought I'd pop in and listen a while but wont listen to the whole thing. Wrong. Stayed the whole time. Great stuff guys.
Really does get the "Derek" sound with the slide! Gorgeous!
That was your BEST guest interview !!! ... It is just as entertaining to sit and listen to him talk as much as listening to him play
Captain, this was without a doubt, your most entertaining interview to date. Part of that is because Greg is such a character. But part is you. Youâre a very skilled interviewer for someone who doesnât do it for a living. You interject just enough of yourself to represent the audience, probing for the interesting stories, while not making it about you. Well done, and looking forward to Toby Arrives.
Second
He was very good at keeping Greg focused and had some good references when Greg mentioned someone.
Hey, The Captain could bring Toby Lee "The Kid". Pleeeeease.
Well said. Well done Captain.
yeah - what he said
Love listening to Greg, both musically and verbally! He's a good kinda crazy.
One of the best "meets" yet. Thanks Andertons!!
I watch his videos everyday ! He is a wonderful character, a great guitarist and a teacher.
Haven't laughed this much during a Andertons video since Miku.
The Kochster Disembowels Trucks in 5 minutes here. What a joy it is to watch and listen to this man. Legend.
Johan Segeborn will tell you those 12-watt transistor Marshalls from back in the day still sound awesome :)
Greg is a BEAST!!! One of the top ten best players on the planet! Plus he's super sweet and crazy funny (-_-) Thank you Lee for having him on your show! :-)
Best player to ever appear in one of these videos
This is absolutely my favorite video. I had no idea Koch was such a scream. I only watched because I knew his name from Fender. He is an absolute riot. Thanks Captain, loved it!
Best interview yet - on both sides. Greg is so good he's like a Tele-savant!!
The Captain loves him some Koch
He loved Koch , wayyyyy before he ever knew the name Greg. relax pony puffers
One of the very best guitarists on CZcams and seems like an all round great bloke. His demos are always incredible. Love him. Love this :)
You have to check this RJ Ronquillo out if you haven't seen his channel. Love his style of play. Another amazing guitarist. czcams.com/video/meLSNkktAEU/video.html
Koch is a monster. Crazy good. His personality DEFINITELY comes through in his playing.
One of the best Andertons vids ever.
I love this guy. Run for president Greg....please run for president, please!
My favourite CZcamsrs in a single video..Mr. Koch is an inspiration..
This is definitely my favorite video from the channel. I get myself watching it over and over again. Awesome guy this one.
Paused UFC for this lol, huge fan of Greg
FINALLY! THE ULTIMATE FORCES OF CZcams HAVE UNITED!
Probably the best player you've had on!
The only player who tops Greg is Ian Thornley.
Paul Gilbert? That was also super cool
Greg is awesome as is Paul Gilbert but it was Robben Ford that is the best player. For me that is! :)
Yesidoplaytheguitar for me Guthrie Govan!
Oh thanks forgot him.. :)
I ⥠greg Koch. His personality always just shines. His playing skill is phenomenal
Man I love Greg. Such a hoot and a MONSTER of a player.
I would have paid to see Greg Jam with Danish Pete
Finally my hero on Andertons!
Greg is awesome. I used to watch him play with Susan Julian back in the day in Milwaukee. I grew up there and me and my best friend always went to see our favorite local players. Greg being one of them.
What they donât specifically mention in the conversation about Gregâs career path and success is that Gregâs an extraordinary talent (above and beyond many of those we think of as extraordinary).
Captain meets Greg Koch...It's Christmas come early...
I've never heard of this guy but my god is he good
I could listen to Greg Koch talk all day the guys is entertaining.
Lee you are great for bringing this level of debauchery on that side of Albion.
Now I haven't heard every guitarist in the world play and I'm pretty handy myself but Greg Koch is on a different level to any player I've ever heard,he's got to be the best all round guitar player in the world right now,I remember him jamming with Eric gales at last year's namm and gales was literally sweating trying to keep up and Gk was just churning out lick after lick while EG was starting to repeat himself,the man is phenomenal
The first song I taught him was LOLA. I am not kidding.
Adam mc-I think I know which NAMM jam u r referring to (2016?), but I think Eric was just enjoying it as usual, and sometimes mimicking Gregs initial licks which were so tasty, though adding his own flavor, it was a great jam from both, at least from my point of view
Greg is such a riot! One of my favorite interviews from Andertons. Thanks Lee and crew!
Frankly this video is so good, it needs a tray underneath to catch all of the awesome dripping off it
Such a brilliant interview.
Love to see The Captain meet Derek Trucks
Kochery IS The Man - thanks so much for having him on - and yeah Capt'n had it straight, it WAS hard trying to find some guitar inspiration in the 80's if one didn't want to be a shredder!! Thankfully we still had the old albums and LP's everywhere to dig up some other form to borrow from. Got to love that old vinyl!
Just a quick note to Andertons. This has to be by far the best tone you have captured throughout the years. Could definitely go on record. Clarity, depth, tone. Obviously somewhat due to Mr Koch. But you have captured he essence of his playing. Well done. Any explanation welcome..
When I first saw how long it was, I was a bit reluctant to watch it, but I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. Nice job guys!
Incredible playerâŠ.equally as impressive as any player on the planet and has such a great feel and improvisational giftâŠ.
Sunday morning gristle!!!
Like button just by reading the title:)
Just my opinion, best "Captain meets..." ever up to date (nov. 18th, 2021), funny, entertaining, educational and, icing on the cake, the Master in action for the farewell tune, the perfect closing. Third time I see it, always worth it, very well done Lee.
Must be something in the water in SE Wisconsin: Les Paul (Waukesha), Steve Miller (Milwaukee) and Greg Koch (Wauwatosa).
Also, Jared James Nichols from Waukesha, if I'm not mistaken.
No thank you, I won't be attending the wedding. I'll be home nerding out with two of my favorite people on Andertons TV.
Hiding in the toilets watching this at Waterstones whilst the wife does Xmas shopping x
Gavin Leyfield are you still in there Gavin?
Gavin!
@@Darkgl4ss GAaaavin! ''Have you seen my mate Gavin?''
5 years on... Super Fun to watch!
Country lead guitar always takes me back to childhood. I grew up above a pub and we would have bands now and again and my parents (being somewhat irresponsible lol) would let us come down into the pub on band nights and we'd sit right next to the amps. We had one band with a guitarist named Gordon Healer (who was playing with "The Move" until a few years ago) and he was great. There are a few videos on here, look for the Steel Water Gang. That is the story of how I fell in love with guitars.
Been waiting ages for this one!!!!! Awesome dude and player, great vid
My Sunday just got so much better, Thank you Lee!
Ah, the Gristle Man himself! I have *literally* lost track of how many times I've seen Greg in concert. I'm lucky enough to live in the city he does...
Greg and I have the same stories.I'm 57 and it was a wonderous magical time for guitarists in the 70s. All gone now.
I've been waiting for this one - well played Captain!
I just happened to catch Greg perform in Minneapolis right before he flew out to Europe-land. My first time seeing him and I was blown away! Great interview. I hope I somehow get the chance to play on the new amp, but I don't know any Koch dealers here in the Twin Cities. Lee, maybe you can hook up Joe from Riff City, too?
A family of academics, that makes perfect sense. A good sense of humour is often an indication of intelligence. he's a smart dude and a fantastic guitar player.
I know what Iâm doing tomorrow... watching this again âđŒ
FEAST!
This has made my Sunday!
Greg is a player's player! Great creativity!
Greg Koch is funny as hell, and one of my favourite players, this is easily one of the best ones yet
The absolute best video yet. Great interview. It was the cherry on top of a delicious dessert.
When Greg talks about his influences he never mentions Foghorn Leghorn :o)
Andertons channel, never a bore to watch
I had no idea who this guy was before the video, and I absolutely love him. He's so fun and talented.
Joel Moore his guitar reviews on CZcams are brilliant and very funmy
Teles are growing on me.
*The Captain Meets John Mayer*
I've dreamt of seeing this upload for years. Make it happen, cap'n.
To simply "like" this video seems not enough...... F-KIN AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OMG!!! Thank you Andertons for having Greg!
Lee couldn't get a word or a note in edgewise ... but it was glorious! :-)
Made my day :)
Ggreg is THE MAN!
Greg is in the UK? How incredibly cool, plus he's not reading instruments specs and serial numbers, just chatting and playing. Perfect!
Awesome, Greg is encredible.
The people who click on an hour long interview featuring a fella they don't like just to comment that they don't like the guy. Man, you guys are missing the point.
They are known as "miserable, wretched TROLLS". Their "mission" in life, is to spread their own misery onto everyone else. They are also desperate for attention, because they have no one to play with, and I mean "play" in every sense of the word.
Mr Koch just exhibits and injects so much joy and laughter into the business of playing the guitar. Wonderful guy!
Yep, the point is move on to something you like and make nice comments there, coz nobody gives a fuck lol.
Greg is the funniest guitar sales guy on youtube.
gregory is an absolute treasure...great interview...
Iâm now watching this for, I believe, the 7th time. Iâll probably watch it 50 more times this year. đžđđ»
If Robin Williams had amazing guitar chops, he'd have been Greg Koch.
Very apt description.
This guy is hilarious but can play his ass off Greg Koch love your CZcams videos đžđ
I love this guy incredible technique hes one of my favourite forsure he drives guitar nuts and he creates lots of tricks u can't see and can't do
I cannot think of a guitarist that impresses me more than Greg Koch. Seems like a awesome guy too. Criminally underrated!
