From The Hard Rock Vault – Scotty Moore Guitar
Jeff Nolan, Hard Rock’s resident historian and all-around music nerd, sits down with Kip Elder, one of the best luthiers in the country, to talk about some of the pieces from Hard Rock’s memorabilia collection.
Here, Jeff and Kip are showing off Scotty Moore’s Gibson Super 400, a very cool and iconic guitar, which you can even see Elvis using in his ’68 Comeback Special.
Brian Baker of Bad Religion’s Gibson SG
John 5 Plays 7 unbelievably iconic guitars from Hard Rock’s vault. This will blow your mind.
The amazing John 5 joined Hard Rock historian Jeff Nolan for a deep dive into guitar nerditry. In this video, he plays Jimi Hendrix’s SG Custom, Brian Jones’s iconic Vox Mk. III “Teardrop”, Paul Kossoff’s ’57 Les Paul Jr., Paul Stanley’s Ibanez Iceman, the ’58 Les Paul from the cover of the Stones’ live classic ‘Get You Ya Ya’s Out’, Jason Becker’s Peavey “Numbers” guitar, Duane Allman’s Telecaster (the one he used on Wilson Pickett’s “Hey Jude”) and John’s own 1967 Telecaster Custom. This one was a labor of love. Hope you enjoy it.
FOR GUITAR NERDS ONLY: The gear used was a Valvetrain 416 head and 1×12 cabinet (http://www.valvetrainamps.com/). When you hear a gain pedal, it’s an Analogman Beano Boost (http://www.analogman.com/beano.htm) . An Origin Effects Cali76 compressor was used at its most subtle setting to even things out for the recording. We used a Shure SM57 straight into the camera input.
All the instruments were professionally teched by master luthier Kip Elder of Starr Guitars (https://starrguitars.myshopify.com/)
