1955 Fender Stratocaster played by Joey Landreth

cartervintage.com/elguitar/fen...
Joey Landreth from the fantastic band The Bros. Landreth plays a 1955 Fender Stratocaster that recently came to the shop. This remarkable example of an early 50's strat has had a bit of touchup on the black of the body, an extra hole in pickguard, and a filled hole in headstock. Comes with it's original tweed case.
We plugged this guitar into a 1952 Fender Deluxe www.cartervintage.com/amps/fen...
We mic'd the amp with a Cascade Fat Head and the room with a MV88 mic by Shure. No eq'ing were done in post, we wanted it to sound like you were sitting in the room hearing this for yourself.

Came for the guitar, stayed for the playing. That was incredible Joey, thank you!

[@davidmolloy7909]

That is one special player !

[@CarterVintageGuitarsNashville]

+David Molloy More videos are on the way

[@electricj5]

Indeed. Very Ry Cooder-ish

[@Datanditto]

Does anyone not realize he stole Sonny Landreths name and style?!

[@rockdfunk]

I've never heard as much fretted notes mixed in with slide work and it just sounds incredible

[@rishavrastogi835]

rockdfunk checkout Kelly joe phelps for fretted notes with slide. But this is really cool.

[@gutbucket260]

Check out Sonny Landreth. No relation to Joe.

[@ASSman864]

Check out derek trucks. Hes probably your favorite slide players favorite slide player

[@jasong546]

I agree, check you some Sonny, I don’t mean it like you’re crazy why haven’t you listened to Sonny. I just mean if you have not, sounds like you might enjoy him too. I think Sonny might be the only time I saw someone using Dumbles live too, it was really great.cheers!

[@JacePenderwick67]

Rishav Rastogi Kelly Joe is incredible! These two have similarities in their slide technique.

[@jfaguit]

what a player. I love the way he plays the slide. Nice tone and nice feel

[@CarterVintageGuitarsNashville]

+jfaguit Yes sir! Killer player

[@jean-philipperaynaud689]

each time i listen to a good guitar player i'd like to play what he plays whatever the style. i'd need 48h's days and maybe 10 years......awesome guitar playing !!

[@RupesMcDGuitar]

A truly fabulous player. Great stuff Joe and a beaut of an old strat.

[@sailorjohnboy]

Freakin' Nashville, man. That dude is a hell of a player.

[@Thebroslandreth]

Joey is actually from Winnipeg, Mb Canada! He was down doing some writing when these vids were taken!

[@druwk]

If I had his chops, talent and repertoire, I’d sit around and listen to myself play all day

[@mckorczas7483]

This strat is realy great but Joey is out of this world!

[@jerrymorganjr]

Ive watched this everyday since it was posted.

[@jerrymorganjr]

I'm back again...

[@thelastgreyhawk2161]

I've seen this same exact guitar played by 3 people, but this was my favorite performance with it by far!

[@josephpickard3108]

I could listen to him play all day

[@webcityguymyclubb4032]

So sweet I got a cavity listening to it!

[@andreiwayneandrewbrucewayn3421]

Joey,you're a master!

[@AlexandredeSanti]

Four years on, I am still coming back to this video to learn some licks (it's out of my range to learn the whole thing).

[@Tonetwisters]

Fabulous guitar playing!! GREAT guitar and amp!! My very first guitar was this model, but a year earlier ...

[@rudyhamblee523]

He is truly a great player paired with a great guitar and amp..just amazing

[@michaelsteven1090]

I could practice forever and never be this good.

[@alessandrorossini8704]

Very fine playing on a gorgeous axe through a beautiful amp... who could ask for anything more?

[@FlickerRides]

This is beyond fantastic.

[@guitarnut7438]

truly amazing stuff! What an awesome player!!!

[@tyristori]

Your playing is absolutely fantastic.

[@Tonetwisters]

This guitar and this amp are an incredible combination. Yes, he plays very well, but the basses on this guitar, amplified by that little TWEED are just so solid and rich.

[@jameswilson3554]

Just beautiful..all the way looks and tone.

[@desmo999]

Faaantastic!!! Groov`in with every single note!!! Wooonderfull!!

[@gitmantube]

tasteful and controlled, playing music instead of simply showing off - nice ! a cool axe and amp help but he could pull that off on any other guitar, I'm sure.

[@Datanditto]

Now check out Sonny Landreth and see the real work

[@gitmantube]

@@Datanditto one "better"than the other ? C'mon, that's tired. Joey is of the new generation and he's going places... standing on the shoulders of the Giants who came before him- just like all of us, right ?!

[@stuffezesvintageshop3085]

dig it; sweet sweet sounds Thanks Joey for the audio

[@desmo999]

Wonderfull!!! Player and Guitar and the sound are faaaaaaaaaaantastic!!!!

[@den13d97]

Amazing playing going to see Joey next week in Scotland

[@nicolasavezou7345]

Outstanding playing !

[@wadenkrangguttenberg3750]

[@Beat-zk4fq]

The guitar seems to sing happily.

[@joelfrenchmusic]

Joey is incredible to watch

[@andrepass1976]

Incredible playing.. wow.

[@franksommerfeld8616]

That's about the best thing I ever seen

[@martinulstein9087]

Really nice playing and an awesome guitar.

[@waitcoatmn]

That'll do. Excellent video!

[@CarterVintageGuitarsNashville]

+Wyatt Cote Thanks! Subscribe we'll be posting more this week!

[@chrohm]

how the...is this so clean? just nuts

[@JohanFransen]

a real guitarzan! What a great player he is!

[@xsamitt]

Fender man Approved!

[@ireneruthfox]

A 1955 Strat, played with a slide. You don't see that every day. The Deluxe sounds great too. Joey & Blake Mills are my two favorite guitar player right now. Wonderful.

[@farko63]

Great play man!

[@angelodesalvi8999]

great sound and player

[@kamchuenso7836]

What a player

[@jaimedolcesinnersole]

Fucking amazing

[@gangnamstylegrandpa6352]

WOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@macsoto6947]

Not just the guitar, but your finger.. is great...

[@angelodesalvi8999]

great 🤯

[@kurtromkey1536]

would love for him to Play the Double Nickle! the BEST 55 Out there BAR NONE!!!!!!!!!!

[@jeff7807]

Wish he was my guitar teacher

[@aussie_philosopher8079]

sounds nice, that fella might make it some day.

[@gabethompson9538]

This dude is a monster

[@TheSebtrain]

🤯

[@thebestoffer9384]

Oh yeah the correct use of the tool!

[@jbruner17]

Beautiful! 👍. Is that standard string height action?

[@druwk]

I would imagine they didn’t set up the guitar specifically for this demo...tag is still hanging? Looks like he’s playing in standard tuning? He’s a monster player! Crazy tasty

[@nathansterrett3054]

They tuned them all to open E for him.

[@dinosaurjesus2709]

Wow Bjorn Ironside is a good guitarplayer!

[@utgbanduk]

Genuine laugh at that!

[@wearashirt]

Does he have material on apple music or soundcloud

[@therangersinger]

pickup height is redonkulous

[@ASSman864]

therangersinger cause the action is higher for slide

[@rhendee]

Wow!!! Gorgeous. --r

[@prw139]

Mad..

[@alexanderwebb3032]

Anyone know what tuning he’s in? He usually plays in open C (open E dropped down 4 steps) with baritone strings but I wouldn’t think they would do that to an old guitar for the video.

[@AndreaAustoni]

Open E

[@rickkurtz3078]

Ry & some change....I never messed w/open E that much, freakazoid to be sure...It never stops movin.'

[@josephpickard3108]

Would love it if someone could tab this out

[@mattmikkelsen]

I've just recently posted a free transcription of this great performance.

[@Tonetwisters]

THAT is one great axe and one great player ... and I reckon the amp ain't bads neither ...

[@Sasketchejuana_man]

ive always been curious are yall letting him change to bigger strings or is he playing these off the shelf?

[@tylerthompson1842]

Sounds like he’s in standard tuning. That’s a bad dude

[@TySharron]

Open E!

[@Kdog-hw6ri]

something about just a guitar and amp.

[@AlexandredeSanti]

Is that a song? It doesn´t sound like he´s just improvising. Anyway, I am learning it note for note. Thanks, Joey.

[@phillipleggett4912]

Does anyone know what songs he’s playing?

[@jamieross5887]

Is he related to the awesome Sonny Landreth?

[@miketrask7620]

Long time running

[@mikewarren5351]

Just the shadows, or are those pick ups jacked way up?

[@ryanseanmusicandlove]

I'll look dumb asking but is that open e or standard

[@CarterVintageGuitarsNashville]

Its open e, no worries!

[@ryanseanmusicandlove]

Carter Vintage Guitars thanks.!

[@dougmisantoni4384]

Chops....right there...

[@davetighe]

He'd make a $99 guitar sound amazing too :-)

[@mr.nonchalant7308]

Is he related to Sonny? I here a lot of similarities he in playing.

[@phillipleggett4912]

is this a Ry Cooder tune??

[@bastianmaoro8278]

Não merece apenas Palmas, merece Tocantins inteiro, baita performance, e olha que eu "sou" dos lados do metal.

[@mikejamieson4252]

Is that Sonny’s kid?

[@zacwright1060]

anybody tell what tuning he is using?

[@wadenkrangguttenberg3750]

saw an interview where he mentioned open C but im sure he rocks them all

[@steaminsteveh]

He's in open E

[@frankjames6590]

Dtuning? or E...?great ..!

[@andyknightguitarist]

Bloody hell! 😳 this is a bit good eh!

[@nickbouvy8851]

Is he related to Sonny Landreth?

[@jonadegraaf7916]

nope

[@jzf128]

wooow. Just sensitive playing.

[@racertian]

Would like to have heard the sound of the guitar without the slide.

[@sellmeyoursoul6601]

you are a teriffic player I envy you nobly

[@soulvaccination8679]

Thats it..Im throwing my guitars away.

[@mr.nonchalant7308]

Donny brown. Don't do that. Just keep practicing.

[@w.Izzy.]

this is guitar playing.... not amp playing

[@kamchuenso7836]

What a player
