steph should have his own Smokebox like show herbaday. (cough). He approaches the guitar like an artist. Much respect for the legend. (cough, sorry im enjoying a smoke myself right now).
That completely transparent honesty about only playing power chords.. Steph I'm right there with you! Playing for over a decade and I'm still having a blast with these "lame" power chords haha!
@@revelarocha3879 Jim, Mick, and Tom are all decently technical players when they wanna be. I also feel like Wes could be a bit technical if he chose to do so. I'm not familiar with Brad or Marcos.
Steph may have a simple playing style, but he is the heart and soul of deftones, and if you actually look at his riffs, he’s a genius guitar player lol
I like a lot of his earlier work but since Diamond eyes he’s been going super simple minimalist. I wish he would go back to some shredding and old school metal.
Dig Stephens outlook it makes sense to me cuz that how I play guitar...not saying I'm good just saying making weird chords is how I play.....although I like some solos I've never been impressed by endless noodling and super fast playing Malmsteen is boring to me....what draws me is time signature, sonics and melody......Pixies, Zappa, Soundgarden, Tool, Korn, Deftones etc

"I didn't have to re-learn anything because I didn't know what I was doing to begin with"
Memorable quote right there.
“I ain’t change since! All I do is play power chords!” You rock Stephen! 🤘🏼🎸
Haha. Facts ⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️
This guy is so down to earth and actually a really awesome creative guitar player.
He's so chill and tells it like it is. Need more like him.

Need more episodes of him in the Smoke Box. Him and Tommy Chong are the best ones.
He so down to the earth, down to the flat earth he believes in lol
@@cash_lovell BRO THE SAME JOKE CAME IN MY MIND BRO HOW (but its okay i still ike steph tho)

1:55 LOL, Stephen's self-deprecation always cracks me up.
Totally. He's amazing.
Steph may have a simple playing style, but he is the heart and soul of deftones, and if you actually look at his riffs, he’s a genius guitar player lol
This is the most honest, straightforward interview I’ve ever heard from a guitarist lol
I love Stephen Carpenter...he's just 100% humble and kind and talented. He's a high quality human.
He is high, alright 😌
steph’s collection is amazing
8 strings!
Stef is like an average 9am - 5pm guy that is so good he will never be fired
Stephen is such a chill dude who makes good sounds
Gotta love Steph
Legend
For sure!
Steph is all about that custom life. Those Cabs are sick!
And now hes playing 9 string on OHMS
0:30 the one on the right with the neon green pickups looks awesome.
Stephen is a hero.
Stephen seems refreshingly humble
Pure inspiration! Do what you love and create. No need to color within the lines🤘🏻
Gauze is such a underrated Deftones song
Why
One of my favorite songs ever just because.
Steph’s the man! He’s who got me into electric guitar.
This man is my inspiration in music and life!
Love his ESP’s
One of the reasons why i dig this guy so much is because of his humbleness
Damn ARTIST ,plain and simple
The greatest metal guitarist ever. 6 strings white pony ..personal favorite.
Tony Iommi.
0:49 "Haha I like his laid back attitude- WTF! Is that a bass whammy?!"
this is legit 2 mins of him saying "i have no clue wtf im doing or why im doing it but im having a great time doing it"
Stef é um cara muito legal, muito subestimado eu digo que ele é diferenciado é um dos meu guitarristas favoritos!
Stef is my spirit animal
I love his energy lol
Whats the Song called at 1:12 … that Riff is Awesome 🎉❤
Love this guy
Same
Best guitarist ever
Not really the best but very unique and creative
"I loved EVH." I did too.. :( RIP Eddie
I like a lot of his earlier work but since Diamond eyes he’s been going super simple minimalist. I wish he would go back to some shredding and old school metal.
What's the song in the background?
It's strange that his name is pronounced "Stef-fen" whereas Stephen King is "Stee-ven." Lol I'm confused.
Best band ever
What's your favorite Deftones song? 🎸
@@RedBullMusic too many but i d say Change
Hard to argue against that.
This dude is just to nice of a guy.
does anyone know what kind of knobs he has on his guitars? they look killer!!
The way he explained his string configuration makes 8 strings a bit less scarier for me 😊
Find stephen on Smoke n scan time to time
Anyone know where I can get those tone knobs?!!!!???
I would like to know that too!
My bro Steph
The Last Riffbender
Why is the neck and bridge pickup are so close?
😅 those strings are *hyperslinkys.* 8 string for life ✊🏼
Want his Chiquita guitar!!

Im the same when it comes ti playing the guitar.
Should make a t shirt Stephen Carpenter approves power chords
beautiful guitars but the earth is not flat
Song 0:22?
Gauze
👍🏼
What is the first song?
Deftones - Gauze
@@TetraVaalBioSecurity thanks man....
What's that song playing
Gauze
Sad that this ACL show they had a horrible issue with the sound. That’s probably why they haven’t returned to Austin since 😓
And now he has a 9-string.
