Spanish Joint (D'Angelo/Charlie Hunter) | played on HYBRID GUITAR

[@FlabberFlob]

Woah great job man! Just googled Charlie Hunter - are you telling me the guitar and bass on the original track are played at the same time on a single instrument by one person?!

[@jannay77]

Just found this out too

[@Evvins]

They are indeed, Charlie is insane.

[@itsjustkalla]

This absolutely melted my face wow

[@youngathleticclub6297]

[@jackbonney3267]

absolutely RIGHTEOUS dude, I hope Charlie sees this!!

Thanks, man! 🙌

[@porkgyoza9961]

[@gbailey1958]

That was proper on one of my favorite D’Angelo songs

[@ibrahimuss]

smooth!

[@Bopiq]

Best Version 👍

[@joaopedrodemacedoecastro2572]

insane! always wondered how it was played in the original!

[@theangrycheeto]

What is that instrument? A hybrid of what?

It is basically a hybrid of a bass and a guitar. It has 3 strings each which both have their own dedicated pickup. So the bass and guitar sound are totally separated. It was custom build by stevens custom guitars in Munich based on some of the instruments that Charlie hunter plays. Cheers!

This looks so fun!

It is! :)

[@sichard.rimmons]

This is beautiful. Especially the chorus

[@rhythmcity2006]

Side note, is that a Dockers shirt? Love the playing by the way.

[@MichaelRushMusic]

KILLER GROOVE!!! 🙌🏻

[@PramodhYapa]

Hey Lukas, amazing playing - I came across this because I've been thinking about buying a hybrid guitar, and the KZbin algorithm has seemingly picked up on that! Did you get this custom made? I ask cause I can't seem to find any info about this on the Stevens website. And did you pick it up in Texas yourself or did you get it shipped to Europe?

Hey man, thank you! Yes the guitar is actually made as a total custom build by Stefan Zirnbauer at stevens custom guitars in munich, germany, there might be another builder with that same name :) If you are in the States you gotta check out hybrid guitars! Cheers

[@PramodhYapa]

@ Ah amazing, thanks so much for the info! I actually just moved to Innsbruck, so Munich is super close to me - I'll have to check them out. Your guitar sounds dope so I'll be sure to use this vidoe as reference if I get something made by them! 😊

[@j.domenig418]

Incredible. Post the full song!

[@jl3436]

[@reha0]

mal so richtig great!

[@nahumpradhan8213]

GOOD GOD MAN!!! this is amazing!

thank you!

[@liambeers8458]

Is the guitar in standard tuning?

No, I’m using Charlie hunter’s G tuning. GCFCFBb

[@lucagarciaferrari]

this is great! that guitar sounds awesome - surprisingly convincing bass sound! what's the scale length on the lowest string?

Thank you! The lowest bass string has a scale length of 29“. I have It tuned to G.

[@driversoflondon5611]

@ if id want to learn exactly what you played i this video, would i have to use other strings or tune it to a different tuning? or can i play that with regular strings and regular tuning? amazing play btw, lots of feel and what a groove!

I think there‘s always a way to make that stuff work on regular guitar. you could try to play the main riff in standard tuning with a drop c bass string for example. The thicker you go with strings the more convincing the bass sound is going to be. A baritone guitar would be great as well. Or you can always try a regular scale guitar with baritone strings tuned to B standard for example, which is cool sound as well!

[@driversoflondon5611]

@ thanks, ill try it out!

[@WhiskeyTangoFoxtrot9]

Yessir

[@harpbeat500]

[@michaelfitzpatrick6307]

What's with the frets on the Axe ??

[@sebastianalexandermusic1345]

Whoo Hoo!

🙌🙌

[@lovetheory9769]

🔥🔥

[@hadenbaillie1833]

Nice!!..what strings were used for the bass part?

Thanks. I’ve tried a lot of strings in the past so I actually don’t remember exactly which ones I was using here. Probably Daddario or Labella Tape wounds.

[@FranklynHeinsen]

Niiiceeeee

[@noodlessoul8356]

Dope

thanks!

[@sethrose1325]

Bruh how can I learn this???

[@arbialexander4871]

how is this tuned btw

I’m using Charlie hunter’s G tuning. GCFCFBb

[@poerava]

Are my eyes playing tricks on me or are those frets angled?

No eye surgery needed! You’re right, they are fanned for longer scale length in the bass and shorter scale n the treble/guitar side.

[@poerava]

@ Oh wow. I’ll have to check it out. Is it easier to play?

@@poerava it’s mainly for sonic reasons. Some voicings are quite satisfying to play with the fan frets, others don’t work as well, but to be honest the playability is no big deal, after all few minutes you don’t really feel the difference any more.

[@poerava]

@ Ah gotcha. Wow. Thank you. Your playing is exceptional Your timing is bang on point too. Hanging back off the beat Do you like jubu and sharkley?

[@booda1964]

Dawg teach me

[@PhilipClark]

Man, tasty!

Thank you 🙌

[@uhuhno6441]

Mkay. I thought I was a relatively educated amateur musician but I ...believe in witchcraft now I guess, questionmark?
