- In this GP Classic interview from July 2007, Joe Satriani talks about what went into making his album "Surfing with the Alien" as well as his magic trem on his Kramer guitar.
I was an absolute Eddie Van Halen fanatic around 1984-1988. No one could come close to him, as far as I was concerned ( in terms of tone and composition). Then. . . that all changed when I bought Joe's album, " Surfing With The Alien. " I still love Eddie but Satch really opened my ears to even more unique playing methods.
David McCain I’m still with Eddie #1 , with exceptions
But love Joe’s stuff too. 2 different things.
I prefer band guys tho
Nobody will ever be better than Eddie Van Halen.
But satriani is still one of my favorite guitarist
Give Satch an EVH album to play; no problem. . . .Give EVH a Satch album to play: watch what happens
@@mike1158d i think Eddie could play Surfing with the alien, they're both amazing guitarists we don't need to compare them
EVH is a fucking joke lmao. His playing ain't shit.
Seriously, how does someone give this a thumbs down? 21,530 views and three sad bastards find a way.
I think about it too and wonder what they'd be like in person. Probably a real hoot to be around.
Finally an interviewer that just lets his guest talk without interruptions. Very interesting.
Always fascinating to hear Joe talk about his past experiences...I wish he would write a book like Malmsteen did.
Thanks for posting this. 1st time I've gotten a good look at the Kramer Pacer.
It would be so cool if Joe ever did a deep dive into the guitars he's used over the years.
I wish there were more videos of Joe talking about his old gear and guitar collection. It's really interesting to listen to
It's quite an eye opener to realize that all of his magic gear and endorsements didn't come along until after he made his first two (and most iconic) records.
The man is a lesson on eternal youth : )
I think maybe Ibanez is paying Joe to slam the Kramer...or it's in his contract or something. Not of This Earth and Surfing were the best tones he's ever had IMO.
Dude was thinking of going for a handshake. Barely avoided awkwardness.
Personally i dont like that pacer, i just hate the headstock and soo on, i just dont like that version, but kramer did the pacer custom series with oversized soloist bodies and other super strats like stagemasters, barettas, liberties and many more U.S series with pointy headstocks.
insane to think that in less than a year, Surfing will be 30 years old! Even this interview will be 10 years old!
Сатриани, божественный гитарист, но просто бездна обаяния. Слушать Его музыку можно бесконечно....👏👏👏👏👏
that white guitar is basically a cheap one available to anyone back in the 80s. certainly not the very expensive ibanez models he plays now. yet look what he created with that thing.
also, a lot of people may not know that the entire surfing album was recorded for just $13,000. on two of those kramers, the white one seen here and another one, same model. he switched pickups between songs to get the sounds he wanted, used a boss drum machine on all songs except satch boogie because he could not afford to pay a drummer for all songs.
you’re leaving out a guitar that he used on surfing, he had a hardtail partscaster that was according to him a “boogie bodies strat” with a maple body and ebony board neck. According to joe he would swap out pickups with that guitar depending on what they were doing in the studio
@@knightfall9394 you're correct, there was a modified Strat also
Cheap of course being relative. Back in those days I could get for example a Gibson Les Paul for the same price as that Pacer. Guitars like custom Jacksons were pricier, but the American series Kramers were not cheap beginners guitars. From Kramer, the Focus (Japan) and Striker (Korea) series were available all over the place and much cheaper than these.
@@xpander8140 I'm pretty sure a Gibson Les Paul was not the same price as a Kramer pacer, no matter what era, they are an expensive guitar
Right on. Thanks for sharing.
Humbucker Pacer pleaaaaase ???? :'( I d'ont know BUT I WANT !! :'(
the master
my teacher :D
Kramer made one of the best guitars they were the best of the 80's next to jackson, BC rich and all the biggest name of the 80's hair metal era
I like that story of that last guitar. I have three(maybe 4 or 5) guitars like it. All are completely different makes and models but each have their own character and still play them, when they let me. I have Mother Goose(acoustic/electric cutaway), with it's loose, wobbly neck. I'm continually adjusting the truss rod because it slips out now and again. I've felt like throwing it(I have more than once, never too hard to damage it). But when it's in it's sweet spot it plays and sounds like no other. There's no room to get into Sally(Yamaha SGB????), Frankie(Custom/homemade unique electric my late cousin/guitar brother Russell picked up in Concord). I need to get some pics and post it on fb & twitter..
The Teacher and friend of steve vai (most melodic guitarist ever)
Another deserve?
Another desert?
An other to serve?
Google it: not of this earth!!!
Damn man, why I didn't born in USA?
capo
Wanna see my geetar magazine`s from way back?
What I love about this, Joe's guitar/practice room looks like everyone else's room, a fantastically organized mess. I love it!!!
Fuck yeah Hagstrom is the shit!
man, he looks different without the sunglasses
What is that guitar he is holding?
An old fender HM painted up?
Certainly looks like a stray headstock?
It's an old kramer
I feel so inspired now! Joe will always be my favorite artist
What's the multicolor guitar? Some sort of strat mongrel. Appears to have an edge trem?
IIRC it's a parts Strat possibly, Boogie Bodies parts. His wife Rubina painted it. I read an interview where he said that it had a Duncan '59 in the neck and a Custom or Custom Custom in the bridge, and that he used it to record Echo.
Comes out in 2014. Called "Strange Beautiful Music"
Awesome guy. Amazing player
No joe.... you were born a genius!
