Wolf Hoffmann's Stage Gear Run Down

[@crazeyjoe]

I came here from the Guitar Max channel and the subscribed to this channel!

[@holger7634]

Wolf ist für mich einer der besten Metal-Gitarristen überhaupt. 👍👍👍

[@FFI700]

Totally agree

[@playdiscgolf1546]

Very underrated for sure

[@steves.361]

Wolf is one of the most talented, underrated guitarists ever🤘🤘

[@zancraft7865]

He's not underrated here.

[@timothya.olmeda7299]

Accept always had quality live sound and an amazing live performance. Coupled with a great catalog of songs and you have the perfect product. Those Flying V’s look stellar.

[@Traynoramp08]

I remember being in middle school and I heard the song "Fast as a shark riff and solo". Iconic song!

[@smb7647]

Wolf is such a melodic shredder🤘

[@adamvigil8320]

Started playing in 1981. Wolf's always been a huge influence for me. Excellence.

[@commonsensehill372]

Hey Wolf, I saw you back in 1985 when you were on the Metal Heart tour. I've always wondered about your gear because I love your sound. Thanks for posting this.

[@Stitsel]

Well.... this setup he uses now isn't really indicative of his original tone, it's all profiles , or amp models if you like, of his real tube amps into the Kemper. He was always a Marshall guy, with OD/Distortion pedals goosing the front end back in the old days.Certainly he's experimented w/other amps/preamps over the years, I'm not saying I know everything about his sound or setup. I read he moved on to EVH 5150 III's later on, and when I last saw him he had an ENGL Blackmore head on a Marshall 4x12, with a Wizard head sitting on top of it, both were turned on but I don't know which he was playing through.....this setup was on the side near the lip of the stage. However back by the drums, on top of another Marshall cab was a rack & top of that was a Kemper profiler....so honestly who knows what he was playing through but it was that sharp, tight, grinding guitar sound only he can get.I think he's done a ton of experimentation over the years, and has finally arrived at this simple setup, where anything he wants is in the Kemper & easily accessible by the foot controller. I know this is super long winded, but the point is, this modern setup isn't what he always used & not how he originally achieved his tone.

[@JayElSee]

Beautiful V guitars. Thank you for the gear run down.

[@saturnskull1242]

Iconic player and band! Thnx man!

[@guitarlobos5069]

Adam at FU Tone is a Fantastic company,there upgrades for Floyd’s are the finest

[@luisvillarreal5262]

Very awesome, Wolf. I saw Accept, in concert on their Balls to the Wall tour in the 80’s and got their autographs before the show. Got to meet them at their hotel parking lot when they got off the tour bus. Very cool group of guys. Wolf is on my top 10 list of G.O.A.T. guitarists.

[@mark6302]

those guitars are freaking sick

[@colerobert9700]

He is Accept,His iconic guitar riffs,watched UDO's guitar player Play Balls to the walls and it didn't sound the same,Wolf has that sound on his guitars that sounds like hes cutting thru concrete with a chainsaw, Hes so badass,So glad he's still out there shredding, One of the greats

[@fillo1971]

Grazie per aver regalato alla mia persona la tua immensa musixa di artista e chitarrista. Da quando ti ho ascoltato all'età di 14anni con fast as a shark. Ora a 52anni rimane la mia canzone di sempre nella mia auto tutti i giorni. 🎸💪🏻🤟🏻👍🏻💯

[@bobwalters9151]

I didn’t know Bruce Willis played guitar!! 🎸

[@playdiscgolf1546]

Well before John McClane lol

[@mikevolante307]

Hey your the guy that did all the transcriptions for guitar magazine !!!! Thanks for all of that

[@anthonythornhill8715]

Can’t wait to take a deep dive into your channel!

[@crabshack122]

Much appreciated! Great job thanks for the tour

[@MikeUIibarri]

Still loving that white V I saw about 10yrs? ago.

[@BillBias-f6o]

Glad I found this page! Love the sound you have in Accept songs. Particularly on Balls To The Wall

[@enrico20957]

He is legend, I love so much accept

[@Дидьеоваль]

You look nice Wolf , really appreciate your gear . Simple and efficient . Thanks

[@elinino5275]

Super awesome!

[@glickmpb]

I went to see Iron Maidens Powerslave tour in 1985 and Accept opened. I was 15 and have been a major fan ever since!!!

[@BlazonStone]

Awesome video. All modern gear!

[@mtrich8113]

Looking good and sounding good Wolf . I use a boss Katana Mark II and I wish they made a paddle board like yours so you can set up your settings according to a song.

[@jwolf3920]

Very cool axes their Mr Wolf

[@truthtobehonest]

Sweet rig Wolf. I have the Kemper Rack also. Look foreword to seeing you live!

[@robsas6610]

Nice rig, Wolf.... I never did go Kemper but stayed with the Line 6 Helix, which I'm finally happy with now. It was close, though!!

[@usetname9248]

Bon guitariste et belle guitare 🎛️🎸🤘

[@metalmauce]

So cool with your Kemper! But what do you use as a backup in case the Kemper fails? (I know it won't but I'm just wondering).

[@BuddieOLLi]

Sehr freundlich. Ich schreibe mal in 🇩🇪. Dank diesem Internetz kann man ja heutzutage viel mehr in Erfahrung bringen, und Herr Hoffmann hat mich kürzlich mal interessiert, hat er doch mein wählerisches Ohr in den 80ern erreicht - immer speziell im Sound ( da war echt "metall" drin ) - nie nervend, und melodisch. Kein " Hüdeldi..." Gut 👍. Grüße aus'm Pott

[@mutantkoffee]

I want those guitar

[@NKN82]

WOW. Didn't knew Bruce Willis playing guitar.

[@JamesFord-g5e]

The first v in green looks pretty killer

[@Rezistt]

Can we please get an locked and loaded guitar lesson?

[@jordanmorris69]

Fantastic setup! Thanks for sharing? ... does anybody know what shirt Wolf is wearing? That logo is dope and I don't recognize it

[@mikaelsiitonen2182]

What Kemper model is your system? 2/2023 in Helsinki it sounded great!

[@gustavofarina3197]

Hello wolf from argentina!!

[@whiskeyhangover1438]

I thought that was Bruce Willis for a second.

[@SaberToothGary]

Wolf doin' some tap dancing! Prost!

[@jimjim7008]

Always thought Wolf uses EMG pickups

[@RF944]

Love to see Accept, but it looks like only 2 shows in the US this year.

[@slowstylebibo4350]

Visited Accept live in Karlsruhe in December, 2023 Sound was brilliant. No fake wall of amps on stage. But heavy as f**k.

[@pavlova1952]

Очень позитивный дядечка ☝️🙃👏

[@johnp1657]

I remember being at the Russian Roulette tour and wearing my signature white headband on blonde hair and Wolf spotted me and we kinda locked in for the whole show, lol

[@plus6505]

Cool! what is the amp you profile for your live sound?

[@JuliusMas-bz6my]

Metal Heart ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@SmorgasLord]

glad to hear that also Wolf might not know where the hell he is on the fretboard sometimes haha

[@massimilianomagni2351]

❤❤❤

[@Serega-Pitersky]

Супер! 👍🤘🌎🤘

[@VelenteVelente]

😂😂😂 Sophia Strauss master genius classic music the best johnny from Lisbon Portugal

[@Kai_Westenberg]

Das Kemper Zeugs habe ich nie verstanden. Braucht man nicht noch ne Endstufe um das Signal zu verstärken 🤷 normalerweise wird Kemper doch "nur" genutzt als Multifunktion Pedal vor ein Amp.

[@BlazonStone]

Er hat keine Lautsprecher auf der Bühne, es geht direkt zur PA-Anlage und jeder in der Band hört sich selbst über In-Ear-Monitore. Es ist ein fantastisches System, das Musikern dabei hilft, sich selbst besser zu hören, und in vielen Fällen auch einen besseren Klang für das Publikum liefert, da es auf der Bühne weniger Lärm gibt als bei alten lauten Verstärkern, die nur großen Schlamm verursachen.

[@michaelschmitt180]

Hast Du ab und zu noch den Vintage Amp Stagemaster Rack im Einsatz?

[@jonathanhigson4176]

🤘😎🤘

[@AimingHigh-wi3gr]

👍💪🤘✌

[@mechanicjamz]

[@user-qr7ee2cp4y]

Life is too short to play a boring guitar

[@johndrake2729]

Joe Satriani with a killer V ... just kidding.

[@chrisherrera3042]

I never knew Bruce Willis was a musician

[@greggpeterson2443]

Bruce Willis was an actual musician he has a song called respect yourself

[@cleber7744]

Bruce Willis destroy on guitars.

[@marvelharris9540]

[@BlazonStone]

Why downgrade? Kemper are quality gear!

[@tinclunge1234]

Who

[@tonyeckman4822]

Let it out commoner...let it out.

[@NothingNowhere-vu5oq]

His bridge saddles are almost the same as Ibanez Edge saddles. Interesting. Edit: Referring to the first guitar.

[@verbotenco]

Bruce Willis after Die Hard.
