Recreating ZAPPAs 70's Pignose Tone!

[@petarticinovic2710]

Legit playing and tone.

[@TeiscoCurlee]

Thank you!

[@TheSteelDialga]

Damn you really nail his bluesy "talking" style of soloing. Great work

[@AndrewJewell-bz3gp]

The two things that have improved my guitar playing the most, are the Oil of Aphrodite, and the Dust of the Grand Wazoo.

[@TeiscoCurlee]

An unbeatable combination

[@matthoward1482]

You'd better sterilize those zircon encrusted tweezers

[@spikeybaby1735]

Keeping Zappa alive 😎

[@benjaminromanello3157]

Great tone. Billy Bob Thornton once said Zappas solos sounded like razorblades especially when he played an SG

[@TeiscoCurlee]

That quote is always in the back of my mind, from the classic album documentary!

[@JammerhakenTV]

Black Napkins is my all-time favorite Zappa song ever ever ever

[@arylicht]

missing those iconic sg mids tho!! if you get the pignose might as well go the extra mile right ;) great playing

[@TeiscoCurlee]

Haha if I get my hand on one I'll do a remake of this! Thank you!

[@tannerjmatheson]

Buying a 100 dollar practice amp and a 2000 dollar professional guitar are 2 very different things nice try

[@archietopley9990]

@@TeiscoCurleeor you could just put the pickups out of phase (Peter green mod)

[@DanielVerberne]

Fucking gnarly. I just need some special spices and a drink and I could let this be my whole night soundtrack.

[@kerbygator]

I seen Zappa 5 times in the 70's and i would have to imagine it's hard to replicate his solos......

[@ikemancil3850]

Frank was an amazing guitarist. Not enough credit. Loved his compositions and masterful tempo changes. To this day I catch myself on the edge of my seat listening to his work.

[@twinsmm1]

Your phrasing is spot on FZ. Well done.

[@mattryan6886]

You killed it!!! The tone for Black Napkins 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@rayinpau.s.a.6351]

Cosmic Debris . nice !

[@johnwilliams1223]

The mystery man came over, and he said I’m outta site. He said for a nominal service charge, I could reach nervana tonight.

[@TheWildAmanitas-bp5gu]

“If I was willing ready and able… To pay him his regular fee He drop all the rest of his Pressing affairs And devote his attention to me and I said… Look here brother Who you jiving With that Cosmik Debris”

[@MrWidestripes]

holy shit man, that tone is close as damn it, and sweet sweet playing

[@MatChew75]

You nailed it with the sound.

[@byrdz2313]

wicked

[@chris101ward]

You nailed it. I'm saving this one.

[@johnbsouth1]

Black Napkins. One of my favs.

[@bateauxfrancois7384]

Beautiful tone! Excellent playing!

[@MatChew75]

Yeah, you killed it, man.Keep this stuff going for all the younger generations.Let them hear this amazing guitar work.Maybe it'll turn on some Young person.That's never heard frank before and get them absolutely addicted to his music. And some of the greatest guitar playing we've ever heard

[@hodgeknobbler9848]

Excellent tone!

[@TeiscoCurlee]

Thank you!

[@gerthon17xd23]

Great playing man!!! Do not stop!!!

[@motioninmind6015]

Dude 👍🏻 sounds great, very very Zappa-esque. I've seen many iterations of the Grandmothers and none of them have had a guitarist sound as much like the real Frank as you do

[@TeiscoCurlee]

Thank you so much, high praise!

[@soccer4906]

Fucking spot on dude. Love it!

[@jamesjones-rp6cl]

Great tone and Great version of Cosmic Napkins ....

[@lukeasa4038]

This is unbelievable

[@TeiscoCurlee]

Thank you Luke!

[@atticusfinch4687]

Very Cool! Excellent choice to demonstrate

[@TeiscoCurlee]

Thank you!

[@frankkranick3103]

You nailed it my friend!!! Frank was the man!!!!🔥💪

[@MatChew75]

That was so smokin my eyes started watering. I don't know if it was the smoke that got in my eyes coming from your blazing fast fingers or my eyeballs watered up a little bit from hearing that cuz you absolutely killed it. s*** that was beautiful man. You absolutely nailed it and this made my day

[@TeiscoCurlee]

Thank you so much!

[@fredrodnick2881]

You got it pretty accurate. I am usually not a big fan of high distortion but this i like.

[@Ottophil]

I’m only a fan of ddistortion. Cleans and acoustics are boring

[@HakanTunaMuzik]

@@Ottophil you also need to be a better player for clean and accoustic.

[@nicoguarini28]

Killer overdriven fuzzed out gain attack! That's my sound as well Respect! It also takes a lot of skill to control all that distortion and also still have notes that sound articulate.

[@nicoguarini28]

​@@HakanTunaMuzik Don't hate on high gain players 😮Go pluck your acoustic then .

[@HakanTunaMuzik]

@@nicoguarini28 Go tell that to real playeres like Al Di Meola and John McLaughlin who can do both :-) Just saying you're not much of a player if you can't pick cleanly and play on an acoustic as well.

[@adksherm]

I think it sounds awesome. He might have cranked the gain thru his built in effects a bit more. But I’d have to go back and listen side by side to tell any difference

[@TeiscoCurlee]

Thanks! Yeah you might be right, it's a gnarly tone he used to get!

[@LeSpulch]

Solid work my G 👌 I have been analysing Zappa's style for a few years now and it's just so damn intriguing, good to see others are doing it too 🤘

[@MatChew75]

Bring it brother I love seeing people hit it the right way and I didn't know Frank used a pig nose but what do you know I'm a drummer I still dig everything Frank ever did whether it had anything to do with drums Guitar conducting composing anything it's all genius fz's Legend must live on

[@TAD-LOW]

Freaking sweet dude. And i mean Tone and rippage. Im a drummmer, and playing Zappa is always a serious test on all fronts, pulling it off is no joke.

[@PanchoBotas]

Nice job TC!

[@donvincentwalters2705]

No yellow sno eaten goin'on here. Great googalee moogalee!

[@frisbeethenail]

There so much that is good about this video!

[@LForehand]

I've found that a lot of Japanese guitars from the mid 70's/80's to be much more effective when seeking Zappa tone. More specifically, Matsumoku guitars like Electra, Westbury, Aria II, Westone etc. Most of these guitars come with push-pull pots for coil tap, phase reversal, and even built in boost.

[@nicomarzuk]

Beatiful man👏🏻🎸

[@huuters]

Great job! I would love to see how someone recreates his 84-88 tone!

[@FantasticMrBerg]

Sounds beautiful man! Love Zappa

[@vitolk]

Congrats bro 👏

[@wesley3300]

That sounds fantastic, you really nailed it man

[@AlexVonCrank]

Raw and very Frank. Well done son 👏👏

Really fucking nice man

[@davoaleksanyan6286]

[@2112CO]

Very nice!

[@chucklandreth478]

Amazing job. The phrasing and tone are right on the nose.

[@TeiscoCurlee]

Thank you!

[@OE-jy6yt]

SG and all the boosts and Zappa was underrated as a player Great playing !

[@justsomeguy1074]

A lot of Zappa's tone revolved around his use of the wah-wah pedal.

[@-ull3972]

Excellent

[@ParkJosher]

His tone was most like a wah-wah pedal engaged, and tilted back, low-mids only, highs completely cut.

[@derrickenbuenosaires]

That's awesome, I own a Roxy SG but play more Tony Iommi licks, jazzy hard rock stuff. Wish Tony and Zappa had done something together. Two great soloists.

[@Duke_of_Prunes]

Excellent! Beautiful sound.

[@sonofman4590]

That’s excellent

[@glennmccudden8574]

Great little amp .great sound worth buying.

[@JacobSegaNerd]

You want that Phaser/Flange Combo Tone he did later on, too. Beautiful.

[@Nasia_Cron]

I love Zappa with a passion and apostrophe is definitely my personal favorite album

Well done Sir.

[@projetocaoskako]

This was legit. Ito get this kind of tone I use my pignose 7 200 with a regular booster and a cocked wah

[@joshcoxmusic]

Well done! It really does sound like his tone

[@TheRicardoSanchez]

Sick

[@Adamisgood24]

You got Zappa's style down great!

[@krissimms4775]

FZ HAD MORE HIPS, ASS AND THIGHS IN HIS TONE .BUT OTHERWISE I REALLY DIG THIS..MY FAVORITE ZAPPA TONES 73 THRU 1982

[@sircharles7323]

I am not into Zappa, but this sound just great, what you are doing. Both, tone and playing!

[@pepperstinky]

Wonderful, sounds amazing

[@Dr_Nuclear-sloth]

Fuck yea my dude

[@rayinpau.s.a.6351]

❤️❤️🤙🏻 straight skill brother. Killing it! 🤘

[@TeiscoCurlee]

Thx lane!

[@woodgrovemgr]

Great!

[@TeiscoCurlee]

Thank you!

[@danvincent2600]

I did an album of frank Zappa impressions with a wah wah and a really cheap concorde guitar. It’s bloody brilliant ha ha ha!

[@weenfain2321]

Sick.. You should try to nail the solo from Zombie Woof. Always been my favorite. Zappa was a genius

[@TeiscoCurlee]

Yeah, one of my favs as well, it's so frantic though so I don't think I could do it justice, but who knows, I might try! Thanks for watching!

[@allectocerebrum5462]

Excellent playing my friend

[@stevedotwood]

That's it !!!
