Red Hot Chili Peppers - Californication (Cover)

My favourite song ever! As a throwback to the legend Frusciante himself, I loved to have recorded this on the 71 JMP50 but my neighbours didn't agree ..
I used the great Mr. Britt profile on the kemper and it came out great anyways. Subtle hint of delay and reverb, I used the Barber Gain Changer as a transparant boost for the solo.

I was caught off-guard by the cover. I thought it was the album version, but I enjoyed the damn Slane Castle solo.

[@Hurrishane03]

Very nice clean tone, that’s a beautiful guitar you have, looks exactly like the one Frusciante used to play this song live

[@StringsNThings_uk]

Thanks for watching!

[@MrMisterChiliPepper88]

Shane Ewing That’s why John uses it on tour for this song Californication and other side

[@erickcaradepapa328]

Maybe bc ITS the exact guitar he had the gretch white falcon

[@rickdaniels1000]

John’s one was a 1955 I believe. This one looks mint

[@sundew4289]

@@rickdaniels1000 John's was a 59/60, john has Filtertrons. Before 58 they had dynasonics like this one has.

Unreachable beauty

[@benzondog]

Hi! Great sound (im a Gretsch fanatic for 3decades,jist got my third Falcon, the real rare, with Drarmonds, like Yours! my previous models had Filtertrons) and playing! Sounds the same as Frusciantes G!! A question, did you ad the Bigsby, yourself (6136 DS model, with Cadillac Tail Piece, instead, im just swapping it with a B6 Bigsby, same model as yours) or its a 6136 LDS, that came with a, ' One and Only', Bigsby!!! Cheers!!!

[@kendrickbritto8556]

You channel deserves more subs!!! Also that falcon is killer!! I wish i could afford one too someday 😅 Also great cover too!! R&FnR 🤘🏻

To Be Honest I was Ready For The Solo Turns Out A Different Solo Great Mr

[@MoneymakerAsr]

Que modelo o como se llama este tipo de guitarra??

[@carlosalbertomunozgiron6089]

gretsch professional falcon, o como lo llamamos nosotros, la white falcon de gretsch: su valor esta entre los 3500$ y los 4000$. una bellezura de guitarra, y lo bien que suena

[@michaelparker3105]

Hey man is that vintage select 55 falcon with an added bigsby or a cst i can't see the extra black binding around the f holes to confirm its a cst. Cheers Mic.

[@StringsNThings_uk]

Hi Mic, Thank you for watching. This is G6136T-LDS White Falcon. It’s a standard model that comes with a bigsby, dynasonic pickups and a vintage white lacquer. I didn’t change anything to it except changing the standard dynasonics to TV jones.

[@michaelparker3105]

Wow saw the hump back inlays syncrosonic bridge and thought it was a vintage select.

[@razeshbudhathoki]

That piece looks precious!

[@praveen_43]

Woww! you did the slane castle solo

What effect Frusciante used in Californication

fail solo

[@yPossibleTMPVP]

@Ufuk Uçar se era pra parecer o solo do slane castle, não gostei, consigo fazer bem mais parecido com todo respeito, pois ele parece ser um bom guitarrista.

[@efesonugur4115]

Very bad bends sorry man :(((

[@Simonknowsall]

I mean, I am not a hater , your playing is nice , but for a person who has recebtly started learning

[@live4christ297]

the album solo is way better than this

[@Simonknowsall]

Another proof that expensive guitar doesn't help. This doesn't sounds smooth and relaxed and solo especially , like really forced and without feel

[@StringsNThings_uk]

Very much agree with you. It’s one of the first covers I did and definitely misses some feel and emotion in the playing. Hope to be doing a better re-make of this soon. Thanks for watching!

[@eliasmadias]

go suck an egg you dick. I thought it sounded real good.

[@rogerwhite9124]

Not the right solo

[@StringsNThings_uk]

It’s the solo he plays live at slane castle, love that version! Definitely check it out if you are a RHCP fan. Thanks for watching!
