People may not realize Andy is an unreal guitar player.

[@andywoodmusic]

Patrick Carroll thanks man.

[@gktde9874]

Where is the Andy Wood skill-switch on the hombre?

[@andywoodmusic]

gktde9874 it’s on the back. 😆

[@davidespinosa1910]

AHM - BRAY = hambre = hungry OHM - BRAY = hombre = man

[@DannyBrooks1]

Andy is one of my favorite players and that amp is off the charts good!

[@rosshoyt2030]

Love my Suhr

[@CaberraTV]

I saw a video where a guy putts this thing apart. It's not handwired. Still very good though!

[@Strumbum01]

Saw this dude jamming there, amazing picker! I wish I could afford one of those guitars.

[@jeremyacker8566]

That's a killer amp! The 6G3 and 5e3 are my all-time favorite amps. Tone all day! No pedals needed! Just a volume and tone on your guitar.

[@5urg3x]

Vibrato? No. It’s a true tremolo circuit. Stop using those terms interchangeably lol. Tremolo = change in volume, vibrato= change in pitch.

[@MisterTee]

Historically these circuits have been called vibrato. John just stuck with tradition and went with the incorrect name

[@JohnnyFriendly]

@@MisterTee That's right. In the early 60s vibrato was considered a more "boutique" circuit than trem since it was more complicated (and expensive) to build. Fender started to use the term "vibrato" to essentially hoodwink unsuspecting buyers; the idea was to give them the impression that they were getting something that was more expensive than it actually was

[@bingefeller]

There are so many amps that they all start to sound the same to me. All of these Fender style boutique amps sound very similar, same with the Marshall etc.

[@JohnnyFriendly]

I think what you mean is all these guitar players sound the same - the equipment is only as distinct as its players

[@patmcwilliamsmusic]

This is an amazing amp! Have had one for about 3 years now. Sounds great clean and cranked. Clean Fender sounds to ZZ Top. I use through different cabs as well as combo. Through a 4x12, can't beat it.

[@Metlupass2]

Don is such a nice guy

[@BenEller]

he's the BEST!

[@magnusberger6762]

Not «of course a normal and a vibrato channel». Not «of course handwired». Why is he stating this without checking up front?

[@MrAletube]

yeah,pots,caps,transformers,what else...its the design and craftmanship,baby....

[@druwk]

The Hombre, is one Bad Hombre! Favorite Deluxe amp (Style)...Hope Fender fires back with a reissue of the same quality?

[@IamtheActionman]

Love you Andy but 3.5k is not a working man's guitar

[@daikuone]

As a furniture builder and an owner of two Suhr guitars, the economics of this kind of tele build shouldn't come anywhere near that, regardless of artist endorsement.

[@Scott__C]

The folks who endorse either get free or reduced pricing, so they're never paying that kind of money for it.

[@patrickcarroll1754]

😂😂😂😂

[@steveh1273]

I'm thinking Gretsch may have the most guitar for the money these days. Suhr is in the PRS realm monetarily.

[@andywoodmusic]

Darryl Stevens thanks bud. But I say working man as the guitar player who is paying his mortgage with guitar playing. The working professional guitarist spends 3-4K on a guitar all of the time. At least amongst my buddies and fellow working musicians.

[@sugarlife485]

SUHR IS THE BEST

[@bishlap]

You suhr about that?

[@DirkRadloff]

Why not a built in spring reverb?

[@gfunkk]

brownface deluxe has no spring reverb

[@frankvela3083]

That’s cool but damn hella expensive I could never afford one.😔😔😔

[@j.rozman7016]

I own Fender CS postmodern strat (ash/rosewood) with ancho poblano PUs and compound radius,.also have Suhr Alt Pro (alder/rosewood) and Thornbuckers..Both great guitars: fender has mojo and vintage sound, great neck and resonance. Suhr is really well designed&crafted, sounds more modern and plays really effortlessly. I love them both. I also own knaggs kenai t2 24.75 scale (seth lover humbuckers) and is superior in quality&sound&resonance to every gibson I ever played. I think all these different companies deliver a lot nowadays, because competition is hard. I like all my axes, each evokes different playing out of me. But most time I play strat, which is for me the best guitar design ever made. Regarding the amp: Tone king imperial with celestion alnico ruby speaker is tone heaven! Cheers!

[@MisterTee]

Would you like a cookie ?

[@gair1944]

The amp and guitar both sound great!!

[@bryanclarke1927]

Hombre? Is it loud enough for gigging with a lively drummer?

[@andywoodmusic]

Bryan Clarke planet loud. Think fender deluxe volume

[@bishlap]

Suhr thru Suhr, yes Suhr! Nasty but clean tone.

[@Scott__C]

So, with all the amps on the market, you basically have just a few tones - Twin, Tweed, Plexi, JCM, Mesa Mark and Rec. Oh, and Vox.

[@sugarlife485]

right there thats about 500 sounds

[@rectangularcuboid]

So, with all the beers on the market, you basically have just a few types - Brown Ale, Pale Ale, India Pale Ale (IPA), Porter, Stout and Belgian Style Beer. Oh, and Wheat Beer.

[@Scott__C]

@@rectangularcuboid My point is that everyone is trying to recreate those amps instead of just doing their own thing. Perhaps PRS is doing that, but I don't see a ton of people buying Sonzeras.

Suhr Man amp

[@DannyBrooks1]

Would have liked it better if Andy played more instead of all the talking!

[@andywoodmusic]

Danny Brooks sorry bud. We just knocked this out to talk product. Pop over to any of my channels, suhr page, or my website (andywoodmusic.com) for tons of pickin.

[@DannyBrooks1]

Thanks Andy I will check it out. Always enjoy watching you play and learning some licks!

[@andywoodmusic]

@@DannyBrooks1 cheers man!

[@JackTheSkunk]

Amp sounds pretty good....my question is why is the guitar 3 times the money? Gotta love those "boutique" prices.

[@terminatoreggs]

"15.99 spree" - wtf they saying?

[@78tag]

Maybe someday the music industry will get together and stop using the term vibrato and tremolo interchangeably. Would you point at a phaser pedal and call it reverb? There is a difference (subtle as it is) and it is a different effect. You would think that the salesperson at least would get it right as a representative of the manufacturer.

[@RicardoDiazHimself]

It is a tremolo circuit. A tube biased tremolo.

[@mitcharney1]

LOL Andy has to ask what the price of his signature guitar is...because they are all given to him. The sound of all amps and guitars is based on the skill of the player.

[@andywoodmusic]

Mitch Arney I asked because I’m not a dealer and don’t know dealer versus street price etc.

[@tjnugent62]

I must have this amp!

[@tjnugent62]

I bought this amp.. I should be here by within the week.

[@Colt1704]

@@tjnugent62how do you like it?

[@tjnugent62]

@@Colt1704 It is an amazing amp. It has been compared to early Marshall amps and the vibrato circuit is all tube and lush. Leave it on slow and it creates a beautifully full effect. It is mid focused, so not like a black-panel Deluxe. The 61 Deluxe is what Billy Gibbons used on Tres Hombres. The same tone.

[@Alanoffer]

I would love any suhr guitar but I haven’t got that kind of money sadly

[@bishlap]

uncle offer uncle lala? I'm unscrambling your nic.

[@paredair]

As I know? I thought they only did guitars

[@andywoodmusic]

Neill Levine they build amazing amps and pedals too.

[@leobastosmusic]

Big like 1 👏🏻👏🏼👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@leehowe5937]

Andy is one of the best awesome, but why would they hang an sm57 infront of an amp point the damn mic at the speaker or use a Sennheiser.

[@andywoodmusic]

Lee Howe because the setup times for these booth vids is less than 5 minutes. Companies like PG do hundreds of videos over the course of namm

[@leehowe5937]

@@andywoodmusic ok that makes sense. Thanks appreciate the reply.

[@TheThinker39]

Both the amp and the guitar sound great!! Nice playing too.

[@andywoodmusic]

TheThinker39 thanks bud

[@matthewf1979]

I’d bet the retail price is higher than an original Fender 6G3 Deluxe.

[@andywoodmusic]

Matt Fields you’d lose that bet. $1500

[@Patrick-fm5dk]

That’s actually an incredible price for that amp. I paid £2000 for my Victoria 20112 which was still a great price for such a perfect amp and I would have easily thought that this Hombre amp was at least the same price. I honestly don’t know why people bitch so much about these kinds of prices for this American-made high quality! Just look at the Fender AVii line. Adjusted for inflation, it’s not far off the price and quality of the vintage equivalents at the time they were new! I think the only deserved criticism is at Gibson these days imo

[@danyoung3245]

Groundbreaking for 2020. Suhr makes a 1963 Deluxe. And demoed with a telecaster with a minor headstock change to avoid a lawsuit. I'll stick with Fender. Suhr should start making their own designs at this point.

[@WyattWillis88]

Damn I wonder why they are able to grow and continue to be a successful company lol gimme a break man

[@roymontero4066]

@@WyattWillis88 well Dan Young is not wrong. I bet Suhr wouldnt be "successful" had leo fender secured patents like Gibson did.

[@LysergikFuneral]

Well Fender won't reissue the bronface Deluxe, so Suhr may as well do it.

[@andywoodmusic]

Loping Camshaft exactly.

[@andywoodmusic]

Dan Young my guitar has some pretty drastic differences from a stock tele. Have you checked the specs? 24 fret, custom heel joint, modified tray etc. etc. play what you like, but implying it’s just a tele with a modified headstock is pretty small sighted.

[@roymontero4066]

Can Suhr make anything original? Copies everything Fender does.....

[@sugarlife485]

and so does pretty much everyone else...it is kinda ridiculous

[@roymontero4066]

@@sugarlife485 "everyone"? John Suhr builds exact copies of Fenders and now "brownstyle" amps. At least have some originality like Paul Reed Smith.

[@rectangularcuboid]

*Copies what Fender used to do (and does it better than Fender could today). FTFY

[@R3Minion]

@@roymontero4066 riiiiight. Because the Silver Sky is so original... Paul Reed Smith is doing the same thing as Suhr and any other builder. Taking their piece of the pie to tailor to a different market and to please their endorsees. All of these companies build great gear. If you don't like it then buy/play what you do like.

[@JP-gt8qr]

I agree with you Troy. Mr. Suhr used to work at Fender custom shop and I assume thats the reason he only knows how to copy them. The fact is that, he makes great quality instruments however, his strats and teles doesn't have that mojo that Fender has. I've own 2 strat and 2 teles for few months and I sold them all. Plays nicely they're all 2% short when it comes to original Fender mojo. Just my 2 cent.
