#Sweetwater #BradPaisley
I'm not a country fan or player, but I appreciate Brad because he is a hell of a player and cool dude!
Thank you so much
He’s a badass guitar player
Brad Paisley has single handedly made me a country fan, I got into him long ago and he’s helped me appreciate country music, he’s absolutely my favorite country artist and one of my all time favorite guitar players, among guys like EVH, SRV, Satriani, Vai, Eric Johnson, Guthrie Govan, Brad is right up there with those guys in my opinion, cause he can also sing and write catchy songs. He’s also turned me on to guys like Chet Atkins, Vince Gill, Mark Knopfler, etc. Just great guys and players and he’s one of the best of them all. 👍🏽
There’s lot of great country players. People forget about the legendary Jerry Reed too! He wrote more than Eastbound and Down! Killer guitar player. I’ve been playing rock guitar for over 20 years and just recently started learning these more country licks and I feel like a beginner all over. Such a foreign way to play but, definitely adds to your tool belt!
I love that Brad doesn’t play strats hardly at all and he’s got a whole wall of them
He does play Strats, but he only plays a Strat on songs like "She's Everything" and "I Can't Change the World". Either than that, he's only recorded his songs (his singles especially) on his Fender Teles, and he's performed live with his Fender Teles and Bill Crook T-style guitars.
Absolutely a guitar nut and loves the instrument, great guitarist.
@@johnnydepp4472 Oh wow it’s Brad!! Can I buy lots of stuff from you? Can I send you money?!? 🤩
Don Rich and Brad Paisley - now THAT would have been a GREAT show! Two of THE BEST guitar players EVER! Rest in peace Don. Brad is an absolute guitar genius. Keep them coming Brad!
This has to be one of the better interviews Mitch has ever done. Good job, Mitch.
Agreed. Mitch was on his game with this one... knowledgable, hip, respectful with no fawning... a meeting of minds. WTG.
He needs to let somebody else do videos. He’s so flat.
@@Thomasdgolden agreed
I really appreciate Brad for taking time to share his love of the Fender Tele, his amps, gear, etc. It's also great that Mitch and Sweetwater got this exclusive interview. My favorite Music store does it again!
😁👊
@@sweetwater 😁✊
Bed Paisley is a good man! Talented confident mixed in with humility and compassion. All combined with a gentle sense of humor! Amazing!
For as good a player as Brad is, I'm willing to bet that he can do some pretty gnarly metal riffs and sweeps. You just know he can.
I saw him in concert 4 or 5 years ago and he did a few seconds of sweep picking and tapping in the middle of a solo
I saw him do Hot for teacher live and was doing some of that EVH tapping and sweep picking.
@@gregchester2763 There is live footage of him doing the EVH two handed tapping just as smoothly as Eddie
He can too!!!
If you haven't seen it yet, search Fender Custom Shop for the Game of thrones theme. He does a jam session with some well known metal guitarists. He can hang.
If anyone seriously thinks that Brad Paisley wrote a song that glorifies "domestic violence against men", you should reevaluate your understanding of those words. I found the song funny and charming, in its own quirky way. Most country musicians write about the sadness of a breakup, but Brad Paisley decided to write a song that serves to inspire men to get back up on the horse and keep riding. All he did was put the idea of striking out on a date in the context of a rodeo, in which riders get thrown in the dirt all the time. Guys experience this all the time, albeit not in the most literal sense, but if you stay in the dirt, you'll get trampled and you'll never find the woman who's meant for you!
I couldn't have said it better, +1000
You Sir hit the nail on the horse, uhm, excuse me, head.
The people who think he is glorifying domestic abuse are probably the same people who thought he was racist for writing a very anti-racism song on Wheelhouse.
Brad is such a nice guy... and a super talented person...... He's an example of what America should focus on..... culture, compassion and humility.
I absolutely love how much thought he puts into all of it. Mix that cerebral approach with being one of the best guitar players on earth.... Wow... just WOW!.
Mitch, I've seen a few of your interviews and they are all great! You ask great questions about all sorts of topics, not focusing too much on one and tou clearly know your stuff. Please keep it up!
Mitch is such a class act and a great interviewer!
Man I can just listen to Brad playing all day.
Producer: "Make it hard for the guitar players to learn!"
Biff: say no more
This was the BEST INTERVIEW EVER!! Mitch did a great job ...and Brad Paisley is so humble, genuine and incredible. I am an even BIGGER fan of Mr Brad Paisley now! Thank you Sweetwater for sharing and for doing what you do so WELL. You guys set a very high standard with valuable insights aside from a superb product
Mix.
Thanks for checking it out, Gary! 👍
When Brad said no one wants to listen to, and hummed that lick, it reminded me of Perpetual Burn from Jason Becker.
Wow. The store...
Should the kids be confident? YES.
Go Brad.
Super nice to hear your take on playing.
Thank you.
Lotsa GREAT STUFF there from Mr. Paisley... Especially The Store !!
You Friggin' ROCK BRAD !!
Thank you SW/MG/AV staff and Mr. Paisley! Love your interview acumen, Mitch. This has been the longest, and one of my few, Brad Paisley interviews. What a great guy and what a player - wow! Thank you for making this vid possible and sharing it to the masses - cheers!
Thanks for watching!
M. Paisley is quite a Gentleman. Great interview guys :)

This is a great interview. Brad is a monster player and just a great artist. His tele tone is crazy good and i learned a lot from this video. I could watch it all day!
Get Brad for GearFest 2019!!!
33:05 La Brea Pickup.... Amazing
I'm not a country fan, but am a country fanatic and Brad is the best! Talent, imagination, creativity and a sense of humor.
Thank you Brad for being such an amazing musician in the current world of “artists” that can’t sing without auto tune or play an instrument in anyway. So few musicians left that are mainstay musicians on this level. Lots of amazing musicians/players these days but they’re mostly bedroom/RUclips players.
Though I come from the 80's Metal head-hair band days, I would love to play like Brad Paisley. Mr. Paisley is a genius and a gentleman. Other guitarist on the same category on my list of "would like to play like" are Johnny Hiland, Albert Lee, Brent Mason, Ricky Skaggs, ...The list goes on and on. Great interview.
Brad and his wife have always been tremendous humanitarians! Good on you Brad! It’s the community that has made you who you are and it’s nice to see that you and the Mrs. remember that and give back to the community. Far too many celebrities forget that it is “us” that have provided you with all of your wealth and fame.....so it is wonderful to see that you all are giving back via “THE STORE” here’s to you brother from San Diego, CA!
Nice tip of the hat in the interview to Robben Ford. 16:22
He is so real.His playing is unbelievable.
Great interview with my favorite guitar player!
This is great, very inspriring!
Very cool interview. Love Brad Paisley. Thanks Sweetwater and Brad
So... I’d still like to see the Paisley signature available in royal blue and also cherry red sparkle. Kind of like a tribute to Buck Owens guitar... I already have the silver one. 😏. Maybe a rosewood slab model. I love the shape of that neck.
I put a rosewood neck off of an older Fender Nashville Tele i had laying around.Also put a black pickguard on it.LOVE this nitro sparkle guitar and the pickups!The only bummer to me was for a guitar over a grand it should come with a hardshell case.
Is the Paisley signature fitted with the bender? If not it should be because that is a key part of Brad's sound.
So awesome. Brad is an amazing player and cool guy. Great interview!
Great interview, great insight on delay with no reverb.
That's how I've been playing thru my Bassman from day one. No 'verb, just a boss DD5. I do use compression though. I try to get my tone somewhere between the throaty percussiveness of Brad's, and the sponginess of Vince Gill's. Not too bright, and lots of mid. It isn't terribly easy to get with with 4x10s, but I can get it in the general neighborhood.
Let’s go to the store! 43:22
One of the best guitarist hands down.. style and tone are what it's about..he's got it all and great song writing is a plus lol..he's the Eddie VanHalen of country...awesome interview 👍 the store just an amazing contribution to the people hurting and in need! Brad Paisley thank you for your caring and compassion and amazing talent..
I love Brad, this was a great interview, made my day :)
If I could double thumbs up this vid, I would. 👍👍
Great interview! Thankyou!
Mitch being a class interviewer - Kudos!
The way he describes writing and his creative process I feel like I'm listening to John Mayer's brain twin
...except with humility and without d-baggery.
@@KennyCarlile I did notice some more grace in his words as well haha
@@KennyCarlile John seems to be keeping all that in check with age
Both of them are my modern-day singer-guitarists influences. Both are great singer-songwriters, play amazing guitar, and have made great riffs and play with feel. But I started on Brad, and he has instrumentals. So...
Wow spot on observation
I so remember that Desert Band show at the Wheeling Jamboree at the Capitol. He was using a Vox AC30 or maybe two I believe. He ( John Jorgenson ) came into the stagehand room and wanted to use the phone. 88 was before the cell phone. He was flying back to LA in a few days and was trying to find some one to meet him at the airport and help him with his gear. I was so happy to meet him. Certainly one of the best shows at the theatre to me. I was so lucky to see all of those shows right from the stage and even be part of them.
Im in a BRAD wormhole!!
LOVING the HUM on this video!! Noiseless in overrated xxx Love From MADRID
Mitch Gallagher does the quintissential gearhead interview with the best questions and auxiliary analysis without getting in the way of the artist's impressions. Mitch, you're the best! Thank you! You, too, Brad!
Thank you both, it was nice to see this interview.
if this dude ever came out with a shred album i'd buy it in a second!
He has an instrumental album called “Play”
RUclips search him playing van halen
Enjoyed hearing Brad. Also, glad to see Mitch looking so trim!
cool interviewer. not so many can get people to talk that much. Brad Paisley is an inspiration
Yes ask them all about their setup. Action relief etc. we all want to know this things. Good one !!!
Mitch looks like he’s having a blast, what a fun interview, I love Brad Paisley and Mitch also, great job guys. 👍🏽
He talks about and demonstrated his fondness for a short delay but what goes unsaid is how that thickens his tone with a lot of these amps. Many don't sport effects loops and he's running the delay in front of what are amps that are already breaking up either on the power amp side or those with some added preamp gain. The result is a breakup of the delay signal too which is really fun to play with and really lends itself to great vintage tone. In the early days of rock and roll there were outboard delay and reverb units being developed for live performance which would also sit in front of many amps giving us the nostalgic and immediately noticeable slightly distorted delay or reverb.
I have little appreciation for his music (definitely not a country guy.) But Brad does seem to be a very accomplished musician. Definitely ready to hear what he has to say.
Im with you allen im not a country music guy either but brad is one hell of a guitarist.
I have a stock 1966 tele with a maple cap neck. There's certainly a noticeable difference. String tension is higher, the neck is stiffer, and the tone is somewhere in between a 1-piece maple neck and a rosewood board with a more aggressive attack. I personally prefer the 1-piece maple as it's spongy in comparison, easier to play, and slightly more expressive as it's easier to use the neck for vibrato, but maple cap may be a great option for the rosewood board player who doesn't vibe with a 1-piece maple neck.
Always amazed at how much mood and personality comes from his playing. Even his playing has wit n a wicked sense of humor
Had the pleasure of getting a hug from Brad at a concert 🤗 at PNC on Aug 4th 2017
Thank you for sharing such a great interview with us on RUclips! Seems like a great person as well as musician.
I could watch brad talk and play guitar all day. Love his tone. Love his work!
and sing
Wow! Amazing interview 👏🏼
Well, I just realized how little I actually know about the guitar. Mind blowing knowledge from this guy.
Thanks! Great interview.
Thank you Brad for sharring those things with us amatueur players who hear the tones but dont realy understand what to do when we hear the sound of chords or tunings, its like open something totally different from what you learn from the regular guitar teatchers, thank you VERY much!!! ps. i´m going to buy me a B and G bender and that had not happend if i had`'t watcht your chanel.ds yours Ulf from Sweden!
Mitch Gallagher asking the question I've always wanted to ask Brad, so...kudos!! But then Brad sorta side stepped it until they talked about jazz. I was really curious to know if he thought in scales or chord shapes, but Brad pivoted a little. Ah well. Close enough lol
Ich habe totalen Respekt vor allen Country Gitarristen. Das sind Tiere auf ihren Instrumenten. So viele Facetten, Spieltechniken,Voicings.
Mir bleibt beim zuschauen regelmäßig die Spucke weg.
Awesome thing you are doing with the Store, I remember after my house burned down, it was thin times. Then the injuries as I described below with not being able to work for a year, and now living in pain for the rest of my life. then my wife got a brain tumor, she is ok now but had to retire. You're a good guy, unlike some in this world. Oh btw I picked up one of those 68 tele's in Provo Utah in 1972. The shop owner (I would guess) didn't think anyone would want that pink guitar, so he sold it to me a wet behind the ears guitar picker for $75 with the hardshell case. (true story)
I'm not a country fan in particular, but Brad Paisley is such a great player and just a really decent human being! If I had a cowboy hat, I'd tip it for Brad!
One of Sweetwater's best vids! Fantastic interview with great info!
😎👍
20:02 - 20:06 how the hell did Brad do that?! Sounded like he switched to the neck pickup with that rhythm chug then rips into his classic fat twang lead tone without ever touching the pup selector! Amazing
great look at brads playing !
You can tell how much of an affinity Brad has for the individual nuts and bolts of a specific sound and how a specific piece or set of gear works to make a certain sound. I love hearing him talk about that. And especially about his own experiments with gear modifications. And it's just hard to not love a Telecaster.
Great interviewer!
my birthday present to find/watch this intvw...osom!! my hero
I've been playing guitar almost my entire life, but I never got into country until about a year or two ago. It opened a whole new world for me and I've now become obsessed. Brad Paisley is a rad player and I seriously dig his instrumentals.
It sounds kinda lame, but I saw this interview a while back and I immediately bought that same delay pedal. Paisley's sound is so tight. But it is all in the hands.
This feels like the country version of the Nigel Tufnel “Goes to Eleven” scene.
Great interview with a great artist/songwriter/guitarist, but I gotta say, one of my favorite moments was just hearing him do a few licks from Buckaroo.
Great interview
Great Interview!!!
Please ask them more about their setup !Action relief etc. Nobody does that on you tube.
Great interview. Brad's a genius and a great human being.
That was a great interview of a great guitarist and and a great human being.
I’m so geeked out after watching this lol. Damn that boy can play and knows his stuff. Not only one of the country guitar greats, but one the guitar greats period. And such a funny cool dude. Yeah I admit it, I’m totally straight but a little bit of man crush here 😂😂
I hate country. I cannot listen to any of it. Brad Paisley is so good that I can listen to everything he plays, sings and writes
I'm not a fan of B.P. as a singer, but man is he a great electric guitarist. He's mastered hybrid picking.
Great interview 👌
Frikkin Brad Paisley is a straight-up Bad Ass on that Tele...
Great interview.. thx!
"you're giving me too much credit for thinking...." I absolutely love this guy 😂😂😁
This was fantastic! Thank you!
😎👍
7:50 "make it hard for the guitar players to learn" hahahaha he understands our pain
I threw my head back laughing like the guys in the Brendan Fraser Jorge of the jungle movie. But when he said it’s jazz on the other end of the pick up, I’m like bro I’ve been noodling around practicing my scales/modes the last two months realizing that and I’m like no wonder I wanna sound like Paisley he’s just been the country jazz dude I’ve been listening for. Double dead lol.
Love it!! Awesome Brad!
Mitch is awesome. I’m taking notes.
One thing that is undeniable is that man can play!
"Make it hard for the guitar players to do it" - yup! Love Brad - just a good dude all around.
" MAKE IT HARD FOR THE GUITAR PLAYERS TO LEARN"...... LOL.. LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!
"Nothing's Fun if it's Too Easy" - Sonic
Two of my favorite musicians!
I’m not even a guitar player and this was fascinating.
When I was a child, my family was on assistance. Wish we had something like "The Store" instead of standing separate lines so people could point you out easily!
oh dang. I knew he was great but when they went off on the jazz tangent and Brad started improvising.....he's really REALLY great.
Have you thought 💭 about interviewing #LindsayEll on her hand painted guitars 🎸, amps, and crazy pedalboard?
