  • Vintage Guitar Oldenburg and Tobias Hoffmann present a Fender Broadcaster from 1950. More infos about the guitar at: www.vintage-guitar.de/detailsv...
    The guitar shown was played through a Fender Deluxe Reverb from 1978 and recorded with a Shure SM57 (right) and a Sennheiser 409 (left) . The backing tracks were recorded into a Fame Twin Looper on the same instrument right before the recording of each video. A Electro Harmonix Freeze was used for additional loops and sounds. Overdrive Sounds come from a Vemuram Jan Ray and occasionally the Origin Revival Drive.
    Tobias Hoffmann is a award winning guitar player from cologne, germany. He combines the sounds of Jazz, Blues, Rock, Surf and some experimental stuff. Check him out:

      Could not agree more. I hear an amp on 11 way past the sweet spot, or a clean amp with a distortion pedal turned all the way up I stop watching. Any guitar will do that. Lets hear the character and voice of the GUITAR. I love this channel for that reason.

    • @paulstaffordcook8799
      @paulstaffordcook8799 Před rokem +7

      @@davidallman653 Hi David. Thankfully, yes! When I scrolled to 3:53 I was dreading you were asking about all these complex single note runs….. in which case the answer would have been No 🤣. But those chordal movements, whilst gorgeous, are fairly normal. At one point he’s simply following the exact chords of the song, but just highlighting 2 notes from each chord instead of 5 or 6, to give more of a “lead guitar” vibe. And then at other points he’s “suggesting” or “anticipating” the next chord by sliding up to the chord from 3 frets below. All quite normal. Actually, as a point of interest, I think he accidentally spells out a major chord at one point, but he meant to spell out a minor…. this occurs at 4:03. Not only can you hear this but it’s the first time I think I’ve ever heard him make a mistake…. And he acknowledges it by raising his eyebrows 3 seconds later at 4:06. That said - I think he’s one of the best guitar players I’ve ever heard in my life, and so I think I’m gonna forgive him 🤣.

    I loved his face at the end when he switched to the forward position and accessed the "dark tone" on that vintage guitar with the early blend wiring circuit, which nowadays many regard as "useless". Proof that there is nothing "useless" in the hands of a creative and talented player as Tobias (what a beautiful outro it was using the "dark tone")

    • @Tonetwisters
      @Tonetwisters Před 2 lety +2

      Much agreed, my guitar brother! And that wiring is the only thing I'd have on a Telecaster. Did you know you can put the switch into the #2 (notch) position and get both pickups, some are wired in-phase, some (like James Burton's), out of phase.

    Hi, I'm an Italian guitarist, and I wanted to congratulate you. You are one of the guitarists with the most expressive touch and the most complete and refined technique around. When there is wisdom in the construction of the phrasing and global vision of the writing of the piece, there is no need for useless "virtuosity" or links heard a thousand times as an end in themselves. I would like you to tell me if there are any videos of concerts you have made, and I would like to know if by any chance you will come to play in Italy and if so, when and where. Congratulations, and good music. Luca Falcone.

      @scottjua Před 2 lety +5

      Agreed, glad I found this. Just FYI, the “middle” position on the switch is just the neck pickup on the Broadcaster. The forward or 1st is the neck in a Dark circuit, and the third is the Bridge… BUT, you can use the second knob, which is usually a tone on telecasters, as a blend to blend the neck into the bridge. So you have no TONE knob… you have Bridge/Blend with Neck, Neck, and Neck in Dark circuit.
