First: this is NOT my video and I DO NOT know this guy! I'm not related to this video at all, this guy just blew me friggin' away!!!!

This video shows again that our Strats are amongst the most versatile instruments EVER!!!

It is simply mindblowing how he changes styles in an instant and it certainly shows that if you can handle your guitar and know how to set your amp, that single coils are useful for EVERY style of music.

Now, buckle up guys, this is just so amazing!!!!!

Programmable tube amp by Hughes & Kettner!
Probably a wah pedal in the effects loop, that's all I can hear.
Everything else is in the amp.

Check out Thomas Blug's introduction of the amp on YouTube. ;)

I don't think, Jan is endorsing H&K, he's just some freaky and damn good guitarist who digs H&K amps (I do, too!).

The only endorser I know so far is Thomas Blug, the German Steve Vai :wink:
(I didn't give him that name, ha ha ha)
Are there others????

Hello Smokin' Frets. That blew me away.

Wow, Jan Laacks is the German Thomas Blug. Oh, wait a minute, I think Thomas Blug is the German Thomas Blug.

Me too. For those as don't know, here's Thomas - and I sort of suspect this is what Jan Laacks had in mind in the vid at the top of this thread:
