’52 Telecaster ’65 Deluxe Reverb demo

Filmed at Hyper Guitars in Tokyo, Japan. I’m playing an all original ’52 tele through an all original ’65 deluxe.

Gear:

This tele has the original wiring, so the neck pickup in really bassy and muffled. I don’t play on that pickup much. The bridge pickup is particularly bright and twangy. This guitar has a featherweight body and a medium sized, soft V neck. The amp is a ’65 deluxe with the treble and bass at about 5, reverb at about 2.5, and the volume I move around a bit. This amp really breaks up nice at around 8. For some of the cleaner stuff the volume is around 6. At the end of the video I plug into a Speedster 25watt 6V6 amp, which is a variation of the deluxe reverb circuit but with a bit more gain, when cranked, and a bit better low frequency response. There are no pedals being used.

All of this gear belongs to Hyper Guitars, and is for sale through their website.
