Back in October of 2018, I plugged in with Rock-and-Roll-Hall-of-Famer Ace Frehley at his hotel suite in Hollywood, California. Having just re-listened to our hour together, I have to say: Wow, it's a cool episode — a great hang, and one that is all the more meaningful now that the Spaceman has passed. To honor Ace's life and music, I am re-posting the episode here for you to re-enjoy. I think you'll find it's a powerful portal through time that puts you in the room with the true rock star and the true New Yorker that was Ace Frehley — the true rock legend who inspired legions of young people to pick up the electric guitar, including many who have gone on to become famous rockers themselves. Here is the show exactly as it ran seven years ago. ———————— ORIGINAL 2018 SHOW NOTES: Founding Kiss lead guitarist ACE FREHLEY, aka "the Spaceman," has released a hard-rocking new solo album called just that — SPACEMAN. Plugging in one of his favorite '59 reissue Les Pauls, Ace sits down with me to jam a little, as well as detail the writing and recording of Spaceman, reflect on reuniting (for two songs) with Gene Simmons, and, of course, look back on his legacy — a wild ride that spanned everything from a youth spent surviving the streets of the Bronx to adult years surviving adventures with the Hall-of-Fame rock band that made him famous. Hope you enjoy it! —JUDE GOLD, host and creator, No Guitar Is Safe

On this episode of Talking Guitars, we remember the legendary Ace Frehley — the original Spaceman of KISS

Andrew Patrick of The Carolyn joins Blake to talk tone, songwriting, and the joys (and occasional heartbreak) of Les Pauls that refuse to stay in tune. They get into the band's humble beginnings, Andrew's early love for whiny punk-pop, and why their latest record Pyramid Scheme of Grief nearly didn't sound the way it was supposed to (spoiler: the Kemper got benched). Also covered: • The Milkman Amp that saved Andrew's rig • Embracing “the suck” as a guitarist • Internet trolls and why none of them are Steve Vai • The difference between a good tone and a good mix • Tube screamers, Blues Drivers, and the underrated OD-1 • Why music doesn't have to be your job to matter Plus: gear chat, writing dynamics, keeping your amp happy with a Brown Box, and a shared appreciation for greasy New York pizza that borders on insanity.

Seth Rosenbloom, the fiery young blues guitarist from Massachusetts, brings his wealth of musical knowledge and performing experience to the Chewing the Gristle podcast. What begins as a gear chat about Two Rock amplifiers quickly evolves into a fascinating exploration of musical authenticity and the hard realities of making a living as a performing musician.When Seth discovered his prized 1956 Stratocaster at Lark Street Music, it changed his entire perspective on the instrument. "It's not as bright as I associated with maple neck Strats," he explains, highlighting how vintage instruments often defy our modern expectations. The same revelation occurred when he first played genuine 1950s Les Pauls with their bell-like clarity, so different from the heavier, woofier sound of later models. These insights reveal how our perceptions of iconic instruments are often shaped by mass-produced versions rather than the originals that created their legendary status.The conversation takes a compelling turn as Seth shares his journey from metal-loving teenager to blues guitarist. A pivotal moment came when his mother, hoping to discourage his musical aspirations, took him to see an up-and-coming blues player at a small jazz club - Joe Bonamassa. Rather than dissuading Seth, the experience ignited his passion for blues guitar. With his father's cautious blessing (himself a professional classical musician), Seth eventually dropped out of high school to pursue music full-time, a decision that shaped his career path.What truly sets this episode apart is the candid discussion about the business realities musicians face. From the challenge of finding good booking agents to the economics of small venues, Seth and Greg pull back the curtain on aspects of performing that fans rarely consider. "Getting a record deal is almost easy in comparison to getting a decent booking agent," Greg notes, while Seth reveals why he consistently performs better in seated venues than standing rock clubs.Ready to discover how professional musicians navigate the modern industry while staying true to their artistic vision?

In this episode of DIY Guitar Making, I answer YOUR questions!Questions/Topics:- Do headstock templates include space for the nut?- A jig for profiling necks with a router- An audio example of a student's guitar- Choosing fretwire with the right tang size for your fret slots- Leg tapering jigs for the bandsaw- A case for titebond over hot hide glue- Bevelling fret slots- Why Strats and Les Pauls sound different

If you can't figure out how to play Joe Bonamassa's solo from “Blues Deluxe,” don't worry. It all changes when Shifty sits down with Bonamassa for this special episode of Shred With Shifty. No surprise that both of them reach for their Les Pauls, and Bonamassa even reveals why he switched from Strats to Gibsons in the early 2000s. Bonamassa is known for his dazzling collection of vintage guitars—which he says has become a target for haters—but he explains that you don't need a '58 Les Paul to get the goods. “It's also the mystique,” he says. “If Jimmy Page played a Tokai, everyone would want a Tokai.” A guitar made two weeks ago, he says, is just as good as a classic. Bonamassa's lightning-quick soloing style, which conjures a hurricane of major and minor pentatonic notes with some phrygian flair, is the stuff of legend, and his tricks on “Blues Deluxe” are plenty. Even though he tries to adhere to a “divide by two” rule to simplify his phrasings, he still stumps Shiflett with a volume swell trick he learned from Roy Buchanan and Danny Gatton. This solo is no walk in the park. Any brave takers up for giving it a shot? Share it and tag us so Shifty can have a look! Most importantly, remember to have fun. “Do whatever you want with the damn thing,” says Bonamassa. “It's just a guitar.” Click below to subscribe to the podcast!

When Ovation began making solidbody guitars, just about everything they came up with was full-featured, well-made and very playable. Their designs were perhaps a little forward thinking for most, however, and they didn't fare too well in a market of Teles and Les Pauls. When it came to bass guitars, they fared little better. But the Magnum bass is a beast, and it found its way into the hands and onto the records of many a top-tier player. We thoroughly enjoyed this instrument. Enjoy! Like the show?

The Menzingers' albums are storied time capsules. Starting in 2007 with teen angst and rebellion, they've refined and reshaped their narratives into self-reflective numbers that continue to balance melody and might. Their most-recent installment—2023's Some of It Was True—was their eighth chapter that stares down aging with acceptance rather than anger. But don't get it twisted, these rockers will still charge.“This record just feels different for us,” Barnett explains. “It's a really important one in our catalog, and a pivotal moment in our history. We have the liberty of our fans growing with us now, and after writing these lyrical songs about where we are in life, we decided to take other peoples' stories and make something bigger out of it.” “It brought us back to our energetic side as a band,” May concurs. “We got to let loose, which is what drew us to the energy of being in a band in the first place. This is a live band—why shouldn't we record live songs? As a result, we're back to why we started this band in the first place.”In support of Some of It Was True, the Philly crew toured the States and touched down in Nashville mid-November for a romper at the Marathon Music Works. Before their headlining set in Music City, both singing-guitarists Greg Barnett and Tom May welcomed PG's Perry Bean onstage to converse about their setups. Barnett explained the pros and cons of being a left-handed player, while May divulged the inspiration for his loved Les Pauls. Both detailed why they prefer a two-amp rig, and each demoed the various sounds set off from their respective pedalboards.Brought to you by D'Addario:https://ddar.io/wykyk-rrhttps://www.daddario.com/XPNDRR

Stephen Gibb is a musician and songwriter who has played in some of the heaviest metal bands in the world like Black Label Society and Crowbar-- these days he shreds for one of the greatest songwriters to ever exist, his dad Barry. In this episode we discuss getting gifted a guitar from Ace Frehley, Ratt's Round & Round, gravitating toward Les Pauls, and "not stepping on the voice."Follow Stephen's new band on Instagram:@killtherobotbandFollow Running Out Of Space on Instagram:@RunningOutOfSpacePodcast

This episode starts off with Zach and Rhett catching each other up on their 4th of July festivities. Rhett's was classic: he treated some visiting European friends to fireworks off a dock, barbecue, smoked wings, more fireworks, and a bunch of beer. Zach, meanwhile, was knocking on doors to tell neighbors to knock off the mortar shelling in the middle of the night. To each their own.Then they're joined by Nathaniel Murphy, the Chicago-based guitarist who has racked up nearly 400,000 followers on Instagram with jaw-dropping videos of solo guitar work. Rhett doesn't mince words—he says Murphy is “one of the best players out there.” Murphy's videos break people's brains, they say: no one can work out how he's playing all the parts by himself at the same time. Plus, Murphy works full-time now with Chicago Music Exchange, where he brushed shoulders with Noel Gallagher and Carlos Santana within a few days of one another this summer.Murphy shares how he came to the U.S. to coach soccer for nearly a decade before being hired to do video demos for CME. He was busking downtown Chicago, too, and within a few years, CME brought him on full-time to cut videos. When it came time to join Instagram, he registered with his infamous handle, @ZeppelinBarnatra. Murphy breaks down how the moniker came to be when he entered a contest to win tickets to Led Zeppelin's 2007 reunion concert.Murphy names his favorite all-time guitar—Noel Gallagher's Gibson J-150, which Gallagher recently signed for him—before the crew reflects on how to behave when meeting your guitar heroes. That leads to a discussion of U2's The Edge, whom Rhett and Murphy defend from detractors. They also agree that Teles are the most versatile guitars out there, but Zach, ever the contrarian, dissents: “To me, there's a reason why all the dudes that played Teles back in the day switched to Les Pauls,” he shrugs. Murphy talks about his current favorite players, like Justin Derrico, Stephen Taranto, and Michael Romeo, then the trio dissect different picking techniques and go long on Blue Chip pick manufacturing processes.Rhett, who groans that he has the touch of a blacksmith when it comes to guitar playing, praises Murphy's sensitive playing. But even Murphy, with his prodigious playing, says he gets overwhelmed watching other players' styles. In guitar playing, as in life, the grass is always greener.Big thanks to StewMac for sponsoring this episode.

It is a hidden superpower that a lot of musicians sometimes ignore, but should be talked about more often!

This week, we talk about the history of two of the most prolific guitars ever: the Gibson Les Paul and SG. We'll recreate the tone from Monster Magnet's "Space Lord", then move on to using plugins and how they can make your music sound more professional and ready to release.

“I feel like a lot of people, when they see me play, they think, ‘Oh, it's going to be super aggressive, and there's a lot of shades of that,” shares Jared James Nichols. “But I'm so obsessed with the tone, the feel of it…. Growing up listening to Jeff Beck, Albert King, guys like that; the super feel stuff to me is where it's at.”That sentiment is overwhelmingly clear when hearing just a single note of Nichols' playing. And what makes his musicianship that much more compelling is his abandonment of the pick—most of the time, he's not really “fingerpicking,” but he uses his fingers to shred like any picking guitarist. He explains, “I'm a lefty, so that's where it originated. I tried to use a pick, and I was really uncoordinated. I can play a lot of the same riffs that someone could do with a pick, but play 'em and they sound a lot different.”Earlier this year, Nichols came out with his third full-length release, Jared James Nichols, which adds to his catalog 12 more dirt-covered, gritty tunes that dig in with his infectious passion and signature, glistening tone. The album comes on the heels of Nichols' growing success, bolstered by his extensive touring and tens and thousands of new fans.Given his commitment to Les Pauls, it's fitting that Nichols was born in Waukesha, Wisconsin, the birthplace of the guitar's namesake inventor. Now, Nichols is a global ambassador of Gibson Guitars, an honor shared by only four other guitarists. And, since his last Rig Rundown, he was honored with a signature Epiphone guitar. In this new look at his rig, he shares his legion of trusty Les Pauls, as well as why he prefers simplicity when it comes to amps and pedals.Brought to you by https://ddar.io/XSE.RR.

A Boss RE-202 Space Echo … on a vocal mix? A hot pink overdrive, treble boost, and echo in one pedal named SusMaryOsep—a word Filipino mothers shout at troublesome children? An Artificial Blonde—with hat's off to Madison Cunningham—that's a slightly pitched vibrato? Line 6's Catalyst modeling amp—sexy or not? Amp plugins from Neural DSP and Line 6?

And have you seen the new Empress Para EQ and Origin Effects' M-EQ Driver? Hosts Rhett Shull and Zach Broyles run down their top gear of the year. Plus, dueling Les Pauls and the eternal question: to refret or not to refret. And is a bone nut really better than nylon? And what's a Dutchburst, anyway? Tired of questions? Well, Rhett and Zach also talk post-Thanksgiving turkey. And Zack tells about his 6-string family reunion with his first guitar and flashes the new Mythos Pedals Hephaestus, named for the Greek god of blacksmithing. What else? (Sorry, that's another question!) Rhett opens up a box of spankin' new pickups from Stew-Mac, and they discuss the online screeds and screeches trailing their conversation about tone woods with Paull Reed Smith in the previous episode. And yes, they do dip a rig, submitted for dissection by “Dipped in Tone” listener Kenny, whose '90s rock setup—with stitched-rose guitar straps—sparks yet another argument about the merits of the Tube Screamer and the virtues of the Phase 90 and Phase 45 versus the Small Stone.Big thanks to StewMac for sponsoring this episode.

After moving back to New York City, Joe Bonamassa spent some lockdown time in Germano Studios in Manhattan's NoHo neighborhood, tightly winding the music for his latest album, https://www.premierguitar.com/artists/guitarists/joe-bonamassa (Time Clocks). His longtime producer Joe Shirley had to work with the powerhouse guitarist remotely, from his home in Australia. Yet the result is as seamlessly Bonamassa as ever, with riveting guitar work that has echoes ranging from Africa to Led Zeppelin. “My ADD transcends into my musical life,” the other JB told longtime Premier Guitar contributor Joe Charupakorn in our December feature. “It's a very different record for me. It's not a blues record, for sure. I just try to make records that don't bore me all the way through—we've got this groove covered, we've got that groove covered, let's put a sorbet in, something out of left field.” They don't serve sorbet at Nashville's hallowed Ryman Auditorium music hall—although I'm putting that in their suggestion box. But Bonamassa did dish out plenty of guitar flambé at his August 2 headliner there. And melded the music of Time Clocks with a selection of some of his favorite classic and original blues. PG's JB—that's me—connected with Joe onstage before the show, where I also did a https://www.premierguitar.com/gear/rig-rundown-joe-bonamassa-2018 (Rig Rundown) with that other guy with my initials in 2018. This time, there were some new members of Bonamassa's ever-growing-and-shrinking collection of gear—which he spoke about at length earlier this year with Cory Wong on the rhythm guitar kingpin's https://www.premierguitar.com/podcast/wong-notes/joe-bonamassa-interview-podcast (Wong Notes podcast) for PG—pressed into service, including some recent-arrival Les Pauls, of course, and perhaps the most covetable collection of historic badass amps ever played on the Ryman stage. But rareness, novelty, or familiarity isn't what determines which toys come out to play. Bonamassa starts by building a rough set list, and then chooses the right instrument and amps for each song. So, watch, look, and listen! Brought to you by https://ddar.io/xpnd.rr (D'Addario XPND Pedalboard).

This week's episode of The Tone That Made Us Podcast is with quite possibly the single largest guitar influence in the Hardcore Music scene, Mr. John Porcelly. We had such a great chat with Porcell this is a two part episode. He talks about growing up in suburban NY, how a family member inspired him to play Guitar and how he got started. We discuss the various gear and tones he used on all of the Youth of Today, Judge, Shelter records and more. We touch on his love for Les Pauls and how his YOT Les Paul was not a Les Paul at all. His hatred and now new love affair with Fender guitars and his new projects, clothing line and so much more. Please share, rate and subscribe wherever you enjoy your podcasts! Spread the word!

We talk to Mike about getting exposed to punk through skate mags in the suburbs of Portland, moving to NorCal and building a local scene outside of San Francisco, going from stacks to combos, getting rock 'n roll with Les Pauls, teasing the pedal that gives Spiritual Cramp their signature smooth guitar tone, and lots more!

Rock 'n' roll has a long tradition of building on the work of previous stars and reinterpreting their influences. The Beatles honored the Isley Brothers, Elvis covered Little Richard … up to contemporaries like the https://www.premierguitar.com/artists/the-black-keys (Black Keys) celebrating hill country blues beacons https://www.premierguitar.com/artists/forgotten-heroes-r-l-burnside (R. L. Burnside) and Junior Kimbrough, and Greta Van Fleet echoing Led Zeppelin and Motown. Dirty Honey is reenergizing the hard-rock sound of the 1970s and sleazy Sunset swagger of the 1980s with their amalgamation of heroes that range from Prince and Queen to AC/DC and Guns N' Roses. Before Dirty Honey's headlining show at Nashville's Marathon Music Works, PG's Chris Kies popped onstage to witness the power and might of guitarist John Notto's Appetite-ish assault. Notto shows off a pair of old-soul Les Pauls, explains his intermittent two-amp approach (and where he stole it from), and we enjoy a treat encounter with a very special 'burst.

This week on Between Two Amps, we pick up where we left off in Episode 1 discussing our personal gear journeys.

Here it is friends: The Metallica Episode. Well, sort of. Your bud Hank got to experience a once in a lifetime gig last week, and we spend a bunch of time telling the tales of shredding into your 50s, priceless Les Pauls, and happily waiting in line.In truth there are two main features in this week's episode: Metallica at The Metro, and FINALLY detailing Captain Beefheart's Ten Rules for Guitar as explained by Morris Tepper, something we've been teasing for over a year.Also discussed: Fender's new MoFI turntable and MIJ signature short(ish) scale Katana Bass, making deals and teasing Dave's new old bass, Warm Audio sales, following up on Reverb's My Collection and Preferred Seller program, and Blind Melon and Shannon Hune.Nothing worse than an ill-fitting suit.

Die dreiundzwanzigste Folge deines Lieblings-Guitarcast! Heute ausnahmsweise sogar schon am Mittwoch und in Überlange mit meinem Gast Rouven! Wir beide hatte schon eine Folge aufgenommen, die ich aber dummerweise letzte Woche ausversehen und unwiderruflich gelöscht habe. Deshalb haben wir alles nochmal neu aufgenommen und die Folge gibt es nachträglich für letzten Donnerstag! Anyhow! Rouven ist so ein alter Hardcore Typ, hat in zig Essener Bands gespielt und hat viel zu erzählen. Zakk Wylde war früher definitiv viel cooler und besser und wo sind eigentlich alle originalen 1959 Les Pauls abgeblieben? Und wieviele gabs es eigentlich? Rouven weiß das natürlich! Kennt ihr das erste Lehrvideo von Paul Gilbert? Das solltet ihr euch reinziehen! Muss man Gitarren eigentlich spielen oder klingen die auch gut, wenn man die 40 Jahre nicht anrührt? Wir haben dazu eine Meinung! Neben viel Gitarren und Nerdtalk, quatscht Rouven auch noch über seine Band D.E.E.P. Eigentlich wollten wir dem Thema Corona nicht viel Raum geben, aber weil darüber ja ziemlich wenig geredet wird, gabs dafür auch noch etwas Sendezeit. Super Typ mit ganz viel Nerdtalk! Hörts euch an! https://instagram.com/ross_git21?utm_medium=copy_link https://instagram.com/d.e.e.p_hc?utm_medium=copy_link

Στο σημερινό επεισόδιο του Ask the Guitar Coach, o Ioannis Anastassakis απαντάει την ερώτηση: “Εκτός από Epiphone Les Pauls και SGs, υπάρχουν άλλες καλές κιθάρες με μαόνι στα 500 ευρώ?”

"We've seen the Telecasters, Stratocasters and Les Pauls in an endless variety of reincarnations. We've seen the radical deviations from tradition by Steve Klein, Ned Steinberger, Ulrich Teuffel and their modern day incarnations such as Strandberg and the like. We've seen the beautiful designs by Ritter, Pagelli, Spalt, Ergon and so many more contemporary master guitar makers. But... what is next? Or have we seen it all?"I've flirted with this topic before. A couple of years ago, on my video 'Electric Guitar... Dead?' I mused on the future of electric guitar and guitar driven music in general. On a more recent video 'I have a great idea! But how do I convince the world?' I shared my thoughts on the creative process itself, and the challenges one can face when attempting to break through with a new idea or concept. Let's continue from there, and dive in to the deep end of the world of guitar design!To climatize yourself to the topic, I recommend you to watch the two videos mentioned above!https://youtu.be/1eOcoEjb6bAhttps://youtu.be/BTlZQeCbgB4This broadcast is targeted to all of you who enjoy guitars and basses, be it players, enthusiasts or collectors alike! The program is not about the guitars we make in my company Ruokangas Guitars. I'm doing this for you, who are interested in learning more about your instrument. The brand or monetary value of your guitar makes no difference whatsoever.This podcast was originally published as a live stream on YouTube,  and the imagery of the original video is obviously missing from this audio-only version. Tune in on YouTube and search Weekly Wednesday Live Q&A with Juha, and you'll find the originals!Talk to you soon,Juha

Hope you're in for some chip talk, and we don't mean Cool Ranch.This week our main topic concerns silicon chips - semiconductors, microprocessors, and integrated circuits, their unprecedented shortage in almost every device we use, and (perhaps) the forthcoming analog revolution.Also discussed: a super neat pair of shows with Bethany Thomas, Tawny Newsome, and Ted Leo, positive gear deals, Trent Reznor blasting through Les Pauls, new Focusrite interfaces, the Moog Model 15 app, an updated Klon KTR, Joy Division, Fender Play partnering with Barbie, and Johnny Marr's wild 9-pickup Strat.No chunky flops.

They were the only band that mattered, but by 1985 they were in tatters. The Clash's swan song Cut The Crap is infamous in the music world, regarded by some as the worst album ever made. Having split with co-frontman and primary songwriter Mick Jones, Joe Strummer soldiered on with a few savvy studio musicians and his egomaniacal manager Bernard Rhodes. Together they set out to prove that they didn't need no Mick Jones and they could do it all themselves. Laden with studio trickery, drum machines, and 40 layers of identical sounding buzzsaw Les Pauls, the album is truly a chore to listen to, an all-time misfire from one of the greats. Mike and Heather are joined by Brandon, Meagan and Jack from Time and Place, because we knew they loved The Clash and we wanted to traumatize them. Fingerpop!

In this episode we celebrate the music of Thin Lizzy! Having just released his new book, Thin Lizzy, Every Album, Every Song I am delighted to be joined by Graeme Stroud. Graeme is a musician and writer and has written on websites and blogs on a number of subjects, both musical and non-musical, for several years. He has also performed interviews and written feature articles, gig reviews and album reviews for the rock website VelvetThunder.   Over the course of 12 studio albums and raucous live sets, and armed with  Les Pauls and Marshalls, Thin Lizzy astounded audiences with blend of twin guitars roaring with harmony and electrifying power.  Fronted by charismatic Phil Lynott from their early years with Eric Bell and later Gary Moore, through the glory days of the Brian Robertson and Scott Gorham line-up, Lizzy scaled heights unimaginable for an Irish band up till then.They mixed hard rock with tender stories of identity and Irish mythology and unlike other rock bands that fell during the rise of Punk, Lizzy bloomed delighting both  Rock and Punk fans.I was fortunate enough to see them play at 18 gigs, (Yes I liked/like them!), from 1975-1983 when they disbanded and their songs became a soundtrack for both myself and group of friends. Their music is loved and appreciated as much today as it was in the 1970s and early '80s.Graeme's links;https://www.velvetthunder.co.uk/https://chalkhillblue.bandcamp.com/to purchase the book  UK https://www.amazon.co.uk/Thin-Lizzy-Every-Album-Track/USA https://www.amazon.com/Thin-Lizzy-every-album-Track/Special thanks to Andy Fox , radio broadcaster, for his kind permission for use of his photos on Undercurrent Stories Facebook and Instagram pages;https://www.facebook.com/undercurrentstories  https://www.instagram.com/undercurrentstories/Andy Fox links;http://www.bcfmradio.com/https://www.gtfm.co.ukhttps://www.rock-radio.co.ukAnd very special thanks to Scott Johnson for his kind permission for use of his  artwork featuring Phil Lynott on Undercurrent Stories Facebook and Instagram pages;https://www.facebook.com/undercurrentstorieshttps://www.instagram.com/undercurrentstories/Scott's link;If any  listeners would like to buy any products with Scott's painting on such as t shirts, mugs, badges, stickers etc. please visit RedBubble  http://tiny.cc/pp26tz
