Two official videos of Jeff Beck interviews with Fender and Gibson, Jeff Beck played a Gibson Les Paul in his early career (the most famous the Oxblood Les Paul, a sprayed Goldtop), and later switched to mainly Telecaster's and Stratocasters.
The Gibson video is relatively new, dated 01.28.2009. Jeff played the 1954 Oxblood Les Paul in the early 70s, and on the Blow By Blow album. Listen to Jeff Beck describe - in his own words - what it was like growing up in such a timeless period in music history, and why the Les Paul played such an important role during those early days of the British Invasion.
The second video is a interview by Fender, titled "Jeff Beck 'Esquire' Fender interview". It starts of by showing clips of with the guys at Fender Custom shop working on Jeff's battered Telecaster. Jeff Beck then talks about his first guitar, and guitars used when touring with the Yardbirds. He then goes on with stories of his Fender Telecaster, Jimi Hendrix, and why he loves Stratocasters.
Jeff Beck the legend, master of both Gibson's and Fender's. Enjoy the videos!
