    Thanks for posting. I’m an 81 year old who loved the rock sounds back in the day but couldn’t afford a guitar. I also assumed that my fingers were too small. I played a second hand clarinet. I took up guitar in my early twenties. Though I play folk, American Songbook, light classical, I still love the fifties sounds! 13:22 I am American, living in California.

    Ive really been searching, trying to figure out this tone and style for a while. as a kid, i heard 50s Rock & Roll instrumentals playing at the "Daytona Diner." A popular 50s style diner right on the beach". The guitar tone was so pure and beautiful it stuck with me my entire life and i didnt start teaching myself guitar until recently. I told myself id never watch how-to videos, but swallowed my pride and happy i did and happy i found this video. You clarified a lot of things and i even picked up playing over the neck pickup, using the bridge pickup. Also the fact that my Telecaster will get the job done and that i dont need another guitar to accomplish this tone ive been searching for. youre the closest to it ive heard so far.

    im planning on using these for punk and with high gain. i want that 50s vibe but in a way its mixed with 80s & 90s punk and metal.

    • @TheFairway8
      @TheFairway8 Год назад

      Many of the 70s punk bands guitar was based on a punked up rock n roll guitar tone think bands like The Heartbreakers some Damned, The Clash, Dead boys most of The Pistols, The Cramps, many many bands. I often referred to it as punk rock n roll.
      During the 80s rockabilly became very big at least over here in the UK. Bands like The Meteors, Guana Bats, King Kurt all played rock n roll with a real punk edge usually on the same bill as punk bands. Later you’ve got bands like The Living End particularly early stuff, Chris Cheney is a phenomenal player, Tiger Army.

    This is more rockabilly, a specific form of earth rock n roll, but I want to know where people like Johnny Thunders get that unique 50s sound. That’s more “rock n roll” to me

  • @cornucopia8591
    @cornucopia8591 5 лет назад

    Sounds more like neorockabilly Stray Cats-like picking... No such overdriven sounds those days.

    • @JRobsonGuitar
      @JRobsonGuitar  5 лет назад +2

      I beg to differ. The low wattage amps that were common in those days would begin to break up pretty easily. Take a listen to Scotty Moore's sound on Hound Dog & it's a long way from being totally clean, same with Buddy Holly's sound on Oh Boy. Listen closely to even Hank Marvin's sound & you'll hear that AC30 starting to fur up around the edges more than a little.
