Just to let you know, Charlie came to the Panama Jazz Festival, and a drummer friend that sadly passed away, challenged him to do a foot clave while playing a tumbao, and he said "I've never done it, let me try"... effortlessly, he did it, which comes to now surprise, Charlie probably has the ability to swim and sleep like cetaceans, he can disconnect his brain hemispheres! And such a lovely person, to boot!

I'm glad you compared Charlie Hunter to an organist, because my understanding is that that's what he was originally going for-to play organ-like parts on guitar. It's what led him to committing to learning how to play in this style with that incredible instrument. And he often even plays through a Leslie cabinet as well, just for that extra organ vibe.

Even the configuration of his guitars have changed. And unlike some jazz guys who are all about playing obscure scales at warp speed, Charlie got soul.

I've seen Charlie Hunter live several times. Jaw-dropping is the only words that come to mind. I always try to sit as close to the stage and on the side where you can see his hands clearly. It's beyond amazing! And while watching him I go back and forth between thinking how is this possible? And just sitting back and enjoying the song. Very inspiring to watch, but kind of not at the same time because I know that I'll never play that good! He's beyond genius or virtuoso ... he's just Charlie!

What a phenomenal show!). Side note: I am surprised you guys did not mention the "Leslie" tone he gets out of the higher strings (which I am pretty sure he gets out of an actual split to a Leslie!).

I had the good fortune to see Charlie Hunter play two nights in a row in wildly different settings and styles. The first night I saw him as the guitarist in Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy opening for Nirvana in front of 16000 people. The following night I walked down to my local night club, the Paradise Lounge just to grab a drink, and there was Charlie Hunter with his jazz trio playing to an audience of nine people. It was one of those epiphany moments a musician (me) has where you realize that for a great musician it isn’t about fame and screaming crowds. Here he was, playing for the nine of us with the same intensity he had given the night before to an arena full of people. Which is saying something, because the night before, between Hunters guitar playing and Michael Franti’s dynamic charisma as a front man,the Disposable Heroes had actually blown Nirvana off the stage.

Super exhausting. Charlie is part of Hybrid Guitars in Hillsboro NC you can actually get one, and despite the cost, it's the nicest fret work I've ever seen. I've been on the new instrument for a couple months, and am extremely happy.

I got to talk to him at both shows and he said he was a frustrated organist and recommended Larry Young and "Boss Guitar" by Wes Montgomery. Great drummer, great at playing Blind Blake / ragtime / pre-war blues, just such a tasteful and inventive player.

As you say Rhett: the extraordinary technique is always in the service of the tune & the groove, and that combination makes him one of the most consistently delightful guitarists to listen to.

Charlie Hunter = amazing musician, who deserves to be much more widely known.

Already then, it was unbelievable that so much music could come from just one guy and his electric guitar. Not sure if he had an 8-string or a 7-string back then, but probably an 8-string.

Charlie Hunter … I discovered Charlie AFTER I thought it would be cool to develop a way to play bass and guitar simultaneously. I heard him and was like, “shit, he already did it”. He used to play an 8 string, but lately his Hybrid guitars are 6 strings. Hybrid Guitars is the name of the company, they’re out of Hillsborough, NC. I asked him about his influences in developing his style and he mentioned Joe Pass and Tuck Andress, and that he played a lot of bass and drums. I think he should get a Farmer Footdrum and just be a band.

It was him, a drummer, a sax player, and a marimba player. In a small convention center. I feel so lucky to have seen him. After the show, he hung out and talked to us. He signed my copy of Natty Dread that he did with the trio. Definitely check out Natty Dread.

I've seen him play with Scott Amendola and it was mesmerizing. I also saw hi play 6-string in NYC with Medeski and Martin and an upright bass player, a really small show to raise money for a new electric wheel chair for a guy who ran a label that was important to them and that did not disappoint either! He's just an endless stream of fresh, happening musical ideas with all the firepower in the world to bring them to life. His records are all so cool too - duos, trios, quintets. I really love "Gentlemen, I Neglected to Inform You You Will Not Be Getting Paid" which is a quintet with a drums, trumpet, and two trombones - I think one was a high C horn and the other maybe a full bass 'bone, or at least a Bb trombone. I think it's my favorite thing I've heard from him. "Recorded in Glorious Mono", lol! The writing is SO GOOD, and these horn players all kill it, especially the two trombone players.

I used to accompany myself on guitar with an old electric organ that had a set of bass pedals. It's very freeing in the way that you can go off wherever you want. I also had a looper that I ran from the effects send of my main amp and then instead of coming back to the return I ran the looper's output to a separate amp. That really made it like having a real second guitar. Me and buddy on drums were kinda like a four piece band, 2 guitars, bass and drums lol. But this is something else altogether on the self accompaniment thing! Very cool!

I'd like to think I beat Charlie Hunter to it with the special pickups! In the 1990s I played in a country & western/rock and roll duo, and used a two-humbucker Ibanez RS225. I wired the neck pickup to a separate output, wired in a coil-split switch, and then took out three of the pickup screws, wound the pickup into the body, and wound the three remaining screws back out. the result was that the neck pickup only sensed the three lowest strings. Next I put the B string where the E string should have been, and so on across the neck, with a very thick sixth string, and tuned the whole guitar to B standard. The neck pickup went to a bass amp, and the bridge pickup to a guitar amp. Playing fingerstyle, I could play bass parts and a bit of strumming. The other guy played a regular guitar and could play solos. If a song was in E, I'd have to transpose it as if it was in A, so we both played the right chords. This was a successful setup and more than once, other musicians came up to us, asking where the bass was coming from! I'll admit that Charlie Hunter takes it to another level though. He's an astonishing player.

Got so much respect for Charlie Hunter, what can you say about this master. Great job guys, I’m so happy to see him get some of the appreciation he deserves. Cheers

I discovered Charlie Hunter when his album "Bing, Bing, Bing!" came out in 1995. Along with T. J. Kirk. Been a fan ever since.

I’m sure he’s heard this a million times, but does Charlie Hunter get paid three times at much for doing three jobs at once?! Because he’s like three band members rolled into one! Really amazing! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

First heard Charlie on the last 3 nights of a run with him and Keller Williams trading off as the closer. Charlie was putting out an album with guest vocalists, one of which was a not yet Grammy winner Norah Jones. All 3 nights were incredible.

A friend of mine from church bought a bass with the frets set in a similar fashion. He brought a month or so ago. The looks is stunning, sound impressive

What's amazing about CH is that even if he was playing just guitar, he would still be an insane player.

omg, I listened -a lot- a couple of their albums, years ago, and I never realized that the band didn't have a bass player :O ...I'm in shock hahaha

I saw Charlie Hunter Pound For Pound open for someone, I think it was a rock band, can’t remember, in the 90’s, Return of the Candyman era. That’s the night I discovered Stefon Harris (vibraphone) and that led my life in a new direction.

Rhett pumping his courses for new novos. Can’t stop won’t stop. Charlie just needs a high hat rigged to his right foot, and a kick to his left and we’ve got the full one man band. New old school

"How his brains assigns each finger to each role" -> massive amount of practice. He talks about the logistics of his counterpoint technique in interviews and he says it doesn't come naturally to him, it's just a LOT of work, unsurprisingly. We could probably do it too if we dedicated our careers to that strange instrument that is the hybrid guitar. His amazing taste and time feel, however, are his own!

Nice guy too! I bought him a beer once and he didn't make me feel like a fanboy.

Watching his face is wild, he's concentrating so hard yet he never ever stops being present and LIVE.
