Hans Zimmer - Thelma & Louise - Hans Zimmer Live - Orange - 05.06.2016

[@tapilaha]

for the people here that don't understand.. breaking a string on a guitar with that type of setup takes the entire tuning out of whack, for all strings.. for him to take a slide and just play a totally de-tuned guitar purely by ear and instinct ... it's just pure genius

[@jogendrajoshi7327]

The second guitar is also tuned.

[@John-c3r8x]

Wooooow really

[@gualtersouza2198]

Tears to the guitar tech. Great job.

[@jabbypants788]

As said, breaking a string with a floyd rose, you lose all tuning.

[@antonkishkin]

Yeap. You are right because floyd detuned it. And it also without locked nut. So lost tune a little bit.

[@Shamukh]

The string wouldn't have broken if Hans let Guthrie wear his lucky Pacman shirt...

[@xushi1101]

What a genius comment lol!

[@osanakoma366]

Me and my buddy actually got a pretty good laugh outta that, he was like wtf is this? His signature guitars jack in on the side, so he can loop the cable around the strap knob (if he steps on the cord it won't unplug, tho he didn't bother looping it in this clip cuz time was of the essence lol). The input is actually recessed into the body to hide it & it's angled down for the strap-loop trick. Strats usually jack in the front, lots of thin-body electrics use that feature as well, more meat near the middle of the body for electronics. Cheers!

[@switchmuso]

He wasn't fumbling for the socket, he was putting his in-ear receiver that was on his other strap in his pocket and plugging in all at the same time...!!!

[@andrewpenn4445]

@@switchmuso Nope

[@marcocasati6953]

What really impresses me is the quick thinking. When a string breaks, not only you have one less string to play, but the whole instrument gets thrown out of tune. The moment the break happens, he immediately grabs back the slide so he can continue playing by ear without minding the frets.

[@trevordbabcock]

I had the opportunity to take classes from Guthrie this week at John Petrucci's Guitar Universe. I hadn't heard of him before this week, and in the first class I took with him, I was absolutely blown away. His depth and breadth of knowledge is astounding, not to mention his technical chops. He can probably mimic the guitar playing of every somewhat major guitarist of the last 60 years or so. Not only that, he's very funny, charming, and an extremely good teacher. I am a huge fan, now.

[@davidderoux7552]

[@pleasepermitmetospeakohgre1504]

He over reacted I think.

[@Diax1324]

And in the HARDEST PLACE to break a string - a timed solo where he has to come back in after being disengaged from the song by surprise and figure out where he is, meeting up with the orchestra. Doesn't matter how pro you are, breaking a string is always surprising and is uncommon enough to be virtually impossible to get used to. As a guitarist who has been playing professionally since I was 10, that shit gave me a bit of a palpitation. I would have been freaking out inside. The professional trick is to not show it.

[@SugarTots24]

If you don't experience goosebumps from this you may aswell be dead..it leaves me in awe of these artists ❤❤

[@MyersMusicUK]

I like how he went for the slide straight away, knowing that would be his saviour for any tuning problems the break may of caused.

[@liammaher9572]

Haha exactly my thoughts man. Sign of a proper musician haha. His thinking was "I can find the notes somehow with the slide"

[@iamjoaovicente]

I love the fact that after the string breaks and guthrie changes the guitar, the song goes from a mysterious pink floydish kind of sound to a hopeful place. It's as if the song is telling guthrie and the audience "everything is gonna be alright". It fits perfectly with the situation 4:45

[@phunsukh2810]

That's a really nice way to look at it.

[@alexm1046]

It was that bend that changed the theme.

[@matto9734]

[@derekwinston4105]

Hans Zimmer and John Williams are the best composers of are time. Their music will be listened to hundreds of years from now. Just like Bach and Beethoven.

[@Shmalentine]

Guthrie doesn't really need strings to play. He only has strings on his guitar to make the rest of us feel better about our inadequate playing. :)

[@SantoshKuppens]

When you break a string and your first reactions are: - Saving the lines (I bet some people didn't even notice it. Maybe some in the orchestra behind him even didn't because they couldn't see it), - Look at the composer and saying something like "I got this, don't worry, I won't let this ruin your beautiful piece", you then know he's a pro and humble as can be. Also; Guthrie's other videos and interviews. I often think Govan Guthrie doesn't even know how good he actually is. Zimmer & Guthrie, WHAT an amazing collaboration!

[@joebryant8500]

Says everything that most of his colleagues applauded him at the end. They knew what a magnificent save it was.

[@BrunoGarciaMusic]

Truly a guitarhero moment 3:50

[@AlexisGitarre]

Holy Shit! Guthrie continued with the Slide Bottle to compensate de detuning of the guitar due to the broken string???

[@drumavidcheckupz4792]

That tremol no might help, I'm wondering.

[@AlexisGitarre]

termol-no only works if you block it as long as the tuning is still okay. if you break a string the tremolo goes out of position and the tuning is totally off. blocking it then an retuning is just a big mess. A system like in the Ibanez ZR Trems would help but you can't do any flutter trem-tricks with it but it stays in tune when a string breaks. Or the Steinberger TransTrem and S-trem can be blocked in the zero Position. But a Tremol-no just helps with downtunings or if you want to do some heavy country bends.

[@Phrygian12]

+AlexisGitarre the tremolo-no actually has a secondary block to prevent it from going sharp if a string breaks just like the ZR trem. He might have had it with some slack so he could pull back on the trem for subtle vibrato when playing chords. Regardless, he handled it so well it just goes to show you how great a player he is to mask the guitar going out of tune in time for a switch.

[@AlexisGitarre]

Nope, the second block can be used but if you know Guthrie you even seen in a lot of his videos that he has taken off the second block. guthrie has always his guitar in free floating and only blocks it if he plays detuned. And in this tune you can hear how the guitar goes out of tune and look at his fingers bending at the lower frets until he grabs the bottle neck. He not even touches the back of the guitar to lock the TremolNo. And a ZR tremolo and TremolNo are totally different systems. the ZR has counter springs, the TremolNo only has just a rod that you can fix with screws. I do have guitars with both systems and I absolutely hate the ZR with the blocking springs in them because it makes the tremolo stiff and you can't do a lot of tricks anymore. the tremolNo is way nicer to handle and made for a totally different purpose.

[@mrpropper6034]

Does the guitar detune when only one string breaks or what are you saying.

[@jasoncorderoy3998]

Keep coming back to this. As a guitarist myself, I can say with confidence that Guthrie gave a masterclass in exactly what to do if you find yourself in a situation on stage with a broken string and the spot light completely on you for a big moment. Step 1:string breaks Step 2:alert anyone who can help to the situation and carry on playing as best you can on the remaining 5 strings. Step 3: wait for the right moment to dive out of a note to volume down Step 4: switch instruments Step:5 shadow the melody to check the tuning is correct Step 6: embrace the hiccup and make it look like it was just all part of the show. Such professionalism from this man!
