Best stand up comedy/guitar lessons/incredible guitar demos on RUclips.
Does he really do stand up comedian?
He may as well be.
Greg in pure essence.... one of the best guitar players in the world.
easily one of the best al around
AGREED...PLEASE, MORE CDsss
Need to thank Wildwood Guitars for introducing me to Greg Koch. He is probably the best guitarist I've seen. I watch these videos for lessons as well as their shear entertainment value. If you charged, I would probably subscribe. Thanks for all of your time
Every time I see this guy play I'm puzzled how he's not a billionaire guitar god! This guy plays guitar as well as any guitarist you can name!
+MikeGaming He's from Milwaukee.
You can catch his classes at places like the Dallas International Guitar Show each summer, and on youtube.
He's goofy as hell maybe that's what's holding him back.
gotta write songs
Especially not when you toss in that insane personality of his.
This guy's reviews are the best on youtube.
So glad they're back! I've been digging my Thin Skins for a few years now....both phenomenal guitars.
Greatest guitar faces of all time!
this guy is one of the best around. hands down. how is he not more popular?
pause the video at 4:07
Finally, a Tele played the way a Tele should be !
Never trips me out how no two Telecasters sound quite alike...
Man you're simply amazing!! Dude I've rejected listening to music for no reason in the last 10 years, but stunning players like you make me wanna come back to the six strings fever.. great job, come play in Italy ASAP !!
Simply brilliant playing. The late, great Danny Gatton would be proud!
In have a "ThinSkin" 62' in Lake Placid blue that Wildwood did about 7 years ago, and I absolutely love it. I play out weekly, and swear by it. If I had the money, I'd buy this ash/maple version in a heartbeat. Great run of guitar!
That was one of the best Funk #49 tone I've encountered.
Greg your demos are the best on RUclips!!!!
Good GOD!!! This man just plain RIPS!!!!
Once again I have just been WOW'd!
Greg's face says it all in this vid!
OK the notes under the video currently say Flat Pole Broadcaster bridge pickup. These thinskin teles currently available and as described by Greg in this video, both pickups are twisted tele. The thinskin teles right before these, before March 2016, had a Seymour Duncan 59 neck pickup and a Flat Pole Broadcaster pickup. There are a lot of different Fender made tele pickups, priced very reasonably I might add.
I'd like to see Greg and Phil X in the same room together. Funny + guitar chops = win
Glorious!
Great! When I heard the specs on this guitar, I couldn’t help myself but to think of it as an American made “Classic Player Baja” Telecaster but with different finish (Thin Skin) and without the S-1 switching. Unless the neck profile it’s slightly different, the rest of the features look to be the same... so based on that alone, it’s gotta be great for sure!
A totally awesome guitar but I found myself more overwhelmed by the amazing, inhuman skills of the utterly insane (in a nice way) Greg Koch (AKA God of blues, rock 'n' roll', jazz, folk, whatever else one can think of). Great guitar. Genius player.
Definitely gonna switch out the neck pickup in my 1999 52 reissue for one of these
The original solid body electric. Cannot improve on it!!!!!
You're a riot, man!
Pure madness. Yeah man
Gregory,
You are a fucking one off my man.
fuckin shredding it greg
Amazing demo. love it!
Sounds great? What amp and overdrive?
+heinz B He's not plugged into any amp, overdrive, or any other device. He's so good, he doesn't NEED an amp..............The tone is all coming out from under his armpits...........You should hear this fucker jam with no shirt on. There were earthquakes reported in 3 surrounding states and electric garage doors mysteriously opened & closed all by themselves from coast to coast. Don't you know anything? ;-) Foolishness aside, for the clean tones, they're using a Tone King amp, but I forget which model. And for the dirty stuff, a Friedman 50 watt head. Seriously. There's videos on this channel that show these 2 amps.
I dig it...I truly do 😝
Hi. Good sound. I have alder Telecaster 1988 year with rosewood Fingerboard. I play in Marshall TSL60 with JCM900 cab. Which microphone can you recommend together with Shure SM57? When I use only Shure SM57, clean and distorted sound is not enough volumetric. I'm not feeling sound big cabinet in my records. And what booster can you recommend for tele: The Xotic EP booster or Xotic RC or AC? Thanks!
Sorry for my English.
5:30 Is when this demo gets good.
Curious, do these come with 9's? Does Greg usually play 9's or 10's (or other) on his own guitars?
Always entertaining.
What was the 'hi' bit at about 3:45??
does it come with the vintage wiring kit ?
hey he is like a billionaire with the best job on the planet i wish i could play those axes and amps good playin energy to you and jimmy hendrix energy to ya as well
Is the finish different than the American Vintage guitars? I get that the fretboard radius, frets, and pickups are different. Just curious if "thin skin" term is applied to the finish. I thought the American Vintage models were flash sprayed pretty thin already.
I thought the same. The nitro finish on my AV52 RI is very thin and chips quite easily, so it seems crazy that these are even thinner!
I also thought the neck profile on the AV52 was regarded as being pretty chunky, but Greg says they have a small neck and that the guitar in this video has a larger profile. :/
Is it possible to mention the amp you are using?..or signal chain....
+Arjan Welmers We use a Tone King Imperial for all of the clean tones, and a Friedman Small Box 50 for the distorted tones.
Is this man crazy, Or is he just a genius nobody knows....
Genius, no question. The playing doesn't lie.
I believe he may be both.
3:07 So groovy. I love this part!
that tune is called "windy and Warm"
Any idea what the weight is on these guitars? Round about?
Luke VunCannon go to the wildwood website they have the weight listed for everyone they sell. They vary quite a bit!
All sold out already?
Greg takes his telecasters seriously. He's not quite as crazy as he is in other vids (I'm thinking the dave grohl signature guitar demo) Doesn't matter though, koch shreds, irregardless.
old vid? but they stock new ones now???? wtf
Gregg can kick any guitar players ass anytime anywhere!
This just goes to show how many talented unknown guitarists are out there .. fk the Mayers,Claptons etc who people keep banging on about .. right place right time etc .. put yo' hands together
🙏🙏.. half your ability would suit me just fine
Go ahead Greg, sell me anything!
Just once I'd like to hear a guitar demo WITHOUT a crap ton of distortion, fuzz, overdrive, and other NASTY sounding effects! It would be really nice to hear what the actual guitar sounds like.
I've been saying that for years. Those stupid dime store pedals make every guitar sound alike.
What is the name of the song that starts at 3:07?
+Constantin Curchi Windy and Warm(Chet Atkins)
+Constantin Curchi Here's a link to some Chet Atkins and Tommy Emmanuel tabs, there's two version by each:

thnx alot
😉👍❤🇺🇸
must be a heavy guitar if it uses northern Ash.
he likes teles
Looks like a toy in your arms, The Jazzmaster fits better :)
this what happens when lock your kids in a room with only a TV and a guitar.....
show off
"I like Telecasters". No, really? ;)
A little bit twisted.............
The ultra thin finishes on these things crack and bruise just by looking at them. And when you demo a guitar, why does everybody put them through the dime store pedals? Stop with the stupid pedals.
that butterscotch looks pretty pale >__
