@@phishphan5732 Hey man, great to see we have some of the same taste in music. I've been enjoying Allen's playing for years now, beautiful tone and touch.
if equal parts of Larry Carlton & Allan Holdsworth were combined you’d get Allen Hinds. A perfect mixture of two of the greatest guitarists of all time. Thanks for this Sensei Allen🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
At the risk of relegating his guitar playing to secondary status, I have to say that Allen's songwriting/composing skills are really impressive. Yes, his guitar playing is absolutely amazing, but his compositional skills are off the chart (no pun intended). His tunes are evocative and have emotional resonance, the same type of feeling one gets when for example looking at visual art that speaks to you, or interesting architecture...perhaps walking inside a building that is unique. It's kind of difficult to put it into words...I'm trying the best that I can.
It is so nice of you to tell us about your guitar setup ! I don’t understand why no other pro player share this on their channels or in interviews. They talk about everything else but not this. Setup has more influence on tone and playability than wood , pickups etc. thank you !
So true what Allen said, “all the best woods and parts, hit or miss, no guarantee.” I’ve had a slew of Strats over the years, some were pretty pricey. All on a journey to find the players. I currently have two assembled by the same luthier. One with a slight “V” profiled maple neck and 12” radius. That one he cut the body from aged Alder. The neck is San Dimas. The other has a heavy rolled edge, Fender maple neck, 7 1/2 radius but is a mishmash of parts. So after it all I ended up with partscasters.
7:38 Spot on with the straight neck working miracles on string tension! I only found this out for myself when setting acoustics for years, the straighter the neck the better the feel -- the bridge radius, nut, and fret dress all have to fall in line as well. But nothing affects feel as much as neck relief which is the most obvious in acoustics during humidity swings. A buttery-smooth playing neck can suddenly feel like playing razor blades in a matter of days. When players search for that elusive "as low as you can go action" they're really looking for "make it effortless to fret" feeling which starts with neck relief. With relief dialed in perfectly, it opens up possibilities to raise action to improve sound, such as bluegrass dreadnought players who are constantly chasing "as high as it can go" action.
Hey Allen great and interesting info here. I love how you show your appreciation and respect for these instruments. That tender soul comes out in your playing. Which by the way I’ve loved for years. You and I have actually met many decades ago at a joint in Sherman Oaks called Prezzo. Ventura Bl near Woodman. I was playing there with the brilliant Ronnie Lee Cunningham. You gave me a great complement regarding my voice which obviously stayed with me for a few minutes. Lol. My guitar playing was always paled next to the brilliance of Ronnie Lee. But I must say I learned so much from him over the years of our playing together. He made all the musicians he played with step it up. Now getting back to you Mr Hinds you’ve always amazed me when ever I’ve had the fortune to be exposed to your music. I saw you in Vegas with Gino and an exceptional band which really played his music perfectly. That can’t be easy. As of late I’ve once again loved your presence on you tube which I salute you for creating and joining forces here on this platform. Obviously it’s been spectacular for many artists who have literally created their audience on this platform. One more very important connection we have is our beautiful Thai Girl Ti. I just had dinner with her in No Ho. and was invited to a movie called “What in the Hell Happened to Blood Sweat &Tears “. She obviously speaks highly of you and turned me on to I Keep Forgettin”. I love it! Incidentally I’m friends with Bobby Watson for like 40 freakin years. I’ve also been friends with Maxayn and have done a few gigs with her over the years. I believe it’s safe to say you and I have many musicians in our rolladex who all know each other. Anyway Allen I’ll stop bendin your ear now and say adios till the next one. I’ll try and get out to the Urban Press and say hey to all of you. All the best Allen. FL
One thing which came to mind watching this is how you setup the trem. They are such a pain in the ass, and any insight would be more than welcome. I'll hunt around to see if you've covered this before. Thanks, and adore your playing.
Oh wow, it be awesome to meet you. I'm from Smith's Station. Now in Phenix city. I did not realize you were from here.... you being from here can imagine I bet lol. I'm so glad I saw you on Andertons t.v. keep on rocking Sir!!!
I DIDN'T FALL IN LOVE WITH MY STRAT TILL MY FRIEND OFFERED TO STRIP OFF THE POLY AND DO REFIN IN LAQUER. THE NEXT STEP WAS PUTTING A JB Jr IN THE BRIDGE AND HAVING IT REFRETTED WITH 6105's. I LOVE IT!
Absolutely great info here. Thanks Allen. It really makes a huge difference to set the guitar up properly like you described here. Especially to adjust the truss rod, bridge posts and nut. As a side note to the tone wood you talk about, I just watched this video from a guy called Jim Lill, (Where Does The Tone Come From In An Electric Guitar) and he really shakes the established truths about this topic. Recommended to watch that video. Cheers, Thor
At gigs, I always have guitarists come up to check out my Strat In the ‘70s I brought a neck and then a body and made a guitar. It has a sound that I love and I guess other guitarist do too. My investment then was almost $1k and now they go for 7-8k
Wisdom that comes from experience. I've owned a half dozen gibson LPs and SGs. I've also had a ton of mid level guitar throughout the years. The best feeling and sounding guitar I've owned was a korean made slab body with 2 lipsticks, and the neck was perfect! I paid $300 for it!? Go figure. Thanks for the video allen☮
Yeah, I'll just put in some 1950's pickups I have lying around too... lol, and it's hard to chose between all of those 1950's fender necks I have in my shed...different world.
Im 55, been playing forever. Ive had tons of guitars over the years. Best neck ive ever played, and still have is an old 80s series 10 hockey stick headstock. Drives me nuts that it is the hockey stick headstock because i would like to switch to a more conventional vibrato, but doubt it would hold tune without the locking nut because the tuning pegs make the string angle less than ideal in their path through the nut. But the neck insanely straight, i have not adjusted truss rod in over 10 years, weather never affects the neck like all my other guitars. I think partially why is it is varnished, fretboard and neck are all factory varnish, and even though makes it a bit sticky when your hands get sweaty, the cold and hot just cant penetrate to make it bowed or back bowed.
Great video. I like Strats but mine is new style. Classic Players 60s model. Designed by CS but made in Mexico. Sounds great and made well. It has a 12 inch radius which is fine. I think my Mosrites are 12. My Gretsches are but on Strat I can't get used to it. I'd feel better if it was 7.25 or 9.5.
Great video!I totally agree with the neck being the most important for tone.My fav partocaster uses a Jimmy Vaughan neck and a Clapton body.They make a great couple for my Van Zant pickups.The tremolo I think is also crucial in the strat equation.The fender original trem I think sounds the best but I never get it to work floating.The best one I have found and use is the Wilkinson by gotoh vsvg.For the neck I replaced the nut and and the stringtree with a fender bonenut and an Ultra stringtree.So not a vintage correct strat in any ways but a good workhorse guitar that sounds and work great.
You'd make a wood pallet covered in barbed wire sound good. Thanks for another great video sir. Although you still have that raspy short going on in your feed.... Its a Mic short or something.😎
Allen, you are so kind, gifted and thoughtful. Been listening for years, admire everything about your playing, writing, tone savvy, dynamics, adaptability. The intro is fine, the playing jaw droppingly cool, as usual, the gear insights more helpful than most. I’m a subscriber on Patreon and look forward to whatever wisdom you care to share. AAANND… masterful playing aside, what is your signal chain for this and most of your videos? There’s always this kind of low mid compression going on, no matter what guitar, pickups, amp, etc you play through. No one I know can play such a variety of styles using just a bridge pickup. It can’t be just a full time RC booster. I acknowledge your masterful skill, but there must be some secret there besides just your touch. On another note, please keep trying to develop your online presence, I expect there are lots of fans who can lend support, if you can just elevate your visibility. Clickbait headlines are still legal! Look at Rick Beato and others…. They know how to draw in the listener, the gear heads, the riffmeisters, etc. Thanks for sharing, keep it coming!
Love that strat, the tone sounds so sweet and allen sounds great as always Do you have a preference between a vintage 6 screw bridge vs two point one on a strat? I'm thinking about putting together a strat but cannot decide which one to use if I wanna do some subtle tremolo work and stay in tune
Thank you for a very interesting video! So the neck (thickness and age, fret board?), does truly affect sound? I am very much an amature but I think people and some techs rely to much on neck - truss rod adjustments to fix things that have to do with buzzing an tuning. I think the neck should be as straight as possible with a good set up, height where you like it (low with enough room to dig for bending). The over emphasis on TR adjustments can affect string height along the neck too much, and it annoys me when techs give you back your guitar with such an uneven height along the fretboard. The height should be as even as possible with the neck being as straight as possible; not like its so bowed that you are getting ready to shoot some arrows with it.
What is the ideal body weight for your guitars? I have played guitars that were very resonate at 7+ pds and have an 8 pd strat that is resonate. Just curious.Great video. Please continue with these insightful vids ! Thanks
@@allenhindsguitar Thanks Allen, I seen I jumped in to soon, think mine has been modded, it has a duncan jazz in the neck and JB in the bridge. There isnt any switches but both tones are push pull. The machines are gold grovers. I dont know if that version is the original specs. But I think its an 83 based on the serial number. Like I said it has dots and not the block inlays.
Thanks very much Allen. This is the 2nd video this week featuring old Strats with gorgeous, enormous tone. I'm curious as to what amp your plugged into. Completely agree that it's guitar first, but without a nice warm tube amp you're not going to get as far. If you're playing through an amp sim or a 1984 Peavy Renown, then I guess I'll juts have to look like a goofball. But..I kinda doubt that will be the case. Very happy to have discovered your music. Fantastic playing. Do you ever listen to Harry Manx and Kevin Breit ?
Just looked at your website. Amp questions answered. Tubes all the way.Here's the other vid I was telling you about . ruclips.net/video/ANUxxGPw39Q/видео.html
Hey, Allen, let's be honest, the crummiest, most poorly set up and appointed guitar on the planet would probably sound pretty good with you playing it! Interesting notion that the tone comes mainly from the neck. It is a combo of everything in sympatico, I guess. Enjoyed the video and always good to see Auburn's favorite guitar son still out there doing his thang.
Very nice build! I just find very difficult to find old parts (specially fender) and be sure it is original. There are too many fake stuff out there. Congratulations it sounds amazing!
Sure, maybe a decade or two ago that's an affordable project but go and buy all those similar parts now and you're still easily looking at spending $10k to $15k.
Compared to what people charge these days. It’s the ONLY way to afford. 1500 compared to 10k is quite a difference. They charge more for custom shop necks

@@clydekerlew2252 they are the same age it’s not probably that Allen was influenced by Eric early on his development.
