    The guitar shown was played through a Fender Deluxe Reverb from 1978 and recorded with a Shure SM57 (right) and a Sennheiser 409 (left) . The backing tracks were recorded into a Fame Twin Looper on the same instrument right before the recording of each video. A Line 6 DL-4 was used for additional loops and sounds. Overdrive Sounds come from a Vemuram Jan Ray and the Greer Amps Lightspeed as booster.
    Tobias Hoffmann is a award winning guitar player from cologne, germany. He combines the sounds of Jazz, Blues, Rock, Surf and some experimental stuff. Check him out:

    I have a 1989 EG-59-60 (means: 59 Neck, Plaintop). It is a sensational guitar. I sold my 2016 R8 without any regrets

    So talented!!! Great playing. I have a 1976 Greco EG900 with U-3000 pickup and it sounds very similar. Greco LP from that era 80's are at their summit in terms of quality and craftsmanship.

      I've been wondering about the tonal difference of the 70's maple neck, and pancake bodies, vs the 80's solid mahogany EG-59 series. I might have to get both over time. My understanding is that the 70's models had better pickups in their top tier models. '80-'80 had DRY Z.

      @@johnsmith-oh2xoI have 3 EG guitars now, so I can compare them, A '77 EG700, "78 EG800, and a '88 EG50-70. The pickups are U2000, PU-0, and DRY '82 respectively. I wanted two guitars, but ended up getting the third one. I actually like the PU-0 pickups the best.
      What alnico magnet did you use in your screamin'? I thought they came with A8's.

      @@qua7771 I can’t remember if I bought them from eBay or from yahoo japan but they were around $400-500 for the pair. I felt embarrassed having spent so much for a set of pickups…little did I know they’d inflate to PAF prices.

      @@TheBigbrizzle Lol. I recall an '80's EVH interview where he was embarrassed or paying a few thousand for an actual'59 LP. It's good to hear that you got what you wanted, and your guitar is sort of original.
      I may be in the market for a Greco. I've been looking at 1882--90's EG59 types. They typically have DRY-82 pups. How do you think they would compare?

      @@johnsmith-oh2xo 1/2 of the Gibson's I've seen aren't that great. Rock stars play them because they're paid to. I feel like Gibson is a brand that has been bought, and sold, passed around through multiple companies. They've had good, and bad eras.
      The EG59-70 Greco's have an amazing fretboard. I'm fairly certain it's Braz. Mine has a flame mahog neck. The pickups don't need swapping. Amazing out of the box. Excellent value. They should have done fret binding on them.
