Thank you as always for continuing to extol the greatness of Ry Cooder.

This may be a little off topic, but the best blues guitar lick ever recorded is by the late guitarist Paul Barrere of Little Feat in the song Old Folks Boogie on Little Feat's Time Loves a Hero album.

van Halen had the Frankenstrat, Goose has the Frankenrig. Now you just need a curtain to put that monstrosity behind. 🤙

That has a great tone, nice slide playing. 👍🎸

Tommy Castro straps one on and makes good use out of a Firebird.

Keep a fire extinguisher handy for those Lazy J's.

amazing tone bro

Does anyone else use the digitech crossroads pedal?

Every Dumble amp I've ever seen looks entirely different inside. All those hand-wired parts guide electromag fields. Change the parts, change the fields. Change the fields, change the tone.

I wish I could get Bill Krinard to build up a 385 and 399 Filmosound. I already have the base units. They weren't easy to find.

What about zoomer bends?

Do you prefer these or the peter green dingwells?

I had a Proco Rat distortion back then. I have a clone now, but love it. Rest well Jeff.

Paul Mccarthy has wote Great Songs

You forgot "Future Games".

Great photos and fabulous documentation: kudos Ramon !

Fantastic! Quite possibly the best history of Gary's guitars, thanks.

Are you sure he used a Tremolux? Looks like a Bassman or a Bandmaster to me. The 2x12 cab was Bandmaster/Bassman. Also, the Sunn Coliseum was a master volume type amp. You could over drive the output stage just like any "modern" lead style amp. They are what Leslie West used in the early Mountain days, and what's on their first album with Mississippi Queen. Nice video tho, thax.

TREMELO IS NOT RIGHT TO FAST TOO MUCH AND TOO SHORT ., WRONG PLACE needs to listen to the song LENNY the way Stevie DID IT

Just thinking about the 2 Vox amps stolen at the Cavern. They must still be somewhere, in some dusty old barn, an attic, or rotting in some damp basement...

Next episode...history of Beatles guitar picks...

I thi k ther was a finger print at the pickup or something ...it looks like it though !

Great concise video Ramon.. I’m no guitar player, I’m more piano but I’ve always wanted to get something going on guitar. The only thing I’m any good at is fingerpicking so I was very attracted to this style. I’ve given it a go and it seems to work for me! However, the Electric strings I have seem a bit too light for this style. What gauge would you recommend? Wound/unwound? many thanks, Steve

Right at home in a trucker movie or a car chase... for real! Made me laugh with joy!

Very Nice!

So sad to watch this after Jeff's passing...

Prior to the Then Play On LP, Danny played on & was featured on the American release, English Rose. I understand that it was probably a compilation LP of various tracks put out by Epic. Why no comment on those tracks? You make it sound as if Danny made no prior recording contributions to the early Mac.

Is it any wonder that Mick Jagger would try to burn you.

Absolutely beautiful tones Ramon. Dig that passage around 9 mins 15 seconds. Much gratitude for the research you have put into this. An absolute goldmine of knowledge.

Just wish will be clearer and not as fast with the grooves, with somewhat of indications of your left hand (and right sometimes) this is great help but way too fast and I find myself slowing it down all the the time. For example, 5:47 you finally gave something slow to really get down into it, but the downstroke is muted and it is unclear how or why, when I downstroke it gives unmuted sound...

Gary from my perspective never got the noterietay he deserved he was one of the greatest guitarist of all time

This is awesome. Brian is the reason I wanted to be a guitarist

Kia ora, thanks for this.

Mick Taylor brought that Jimmy Page, Jeff Beck Joe Perry, Clapton guitar front man solo vibe to the group. This completely changed the musical direction from the Brian Jones era. Unfortunately, Keith viewed that as his role, and Taylor's by invitation only, despite Mick's obviously superior virtuosity on the instrument. One can always opine and debate which lineup of any group constitutes the greatest, givien the constantly changing genres of music. However, the question of whose vision and founding of the "Greatest Rock And Roll Band In The World" their legacy rests upon can be answered inarguably... Brian Jones.

Did your friend play for Lulu by any chance?

P90 Gabojos they produce this type of pickups, standard p90 fit, there is not need to retrofit your guitar, their pickups are beautiful with great sound

The Father of Rock'n Roll

Hi, great video. Is there a tutorial for the shuffle?

What a fantastic sound! Partly a Strat, partly a Jazzmaster, partly a Duo Jet and of course, partly a Tele... A zest of reverb, another of slapback echo... Doo Wap, Surf, Rockab', Country, Blues: Pure Nirvana! (the only knobs are ugly...)

I agree on the Yamahas. "Europa" - the one word answer to guitar tone. I believe the signature PRS's he played had SOLID Brazilian rosewood necks. He has largely abandoned his signature PRS's and gone to the single cutaways because he feels they stay in tune better. I'm sure he has a nice one.

Thank you for a motherload of tehcy knowledge i never knew of srv's lineup . Also im happy to hear his gifting a ricky to my man - mr hubert sumlin - a real one. Good stuff / Bless your work

Great playing!

We were NOT rock stars, we got in the Speakeasy, thanks to Uriah Heep, who kindly put us on their guest list, and we had management that handled other bands, like Uriah Heep, that had connections in England.

A man from who sold paintings to Clapton, told us,In 72, Clapton is selling his guitars for heroin, wont buy my painting anymore, and Peter Green wanted me to give my paintings away free.This man was from India, and was well known in England.Drugs are,or can be life changing, not necessarily for the good. Some people lost it due to LSD. Thankfully, that didnt happen to more, it certainly could have.We learned these situations at the Speakeasy, a club for rock stars only.Look around the room. Jeff Beck, Elton John. America was playing at the venue.I was 22, in London with guys on my records at home.Now 72, gratefull to be alive. Thank you, everyone!

I cant understand why brian gets slated by many, his work is fantastic 👑✊🇬🇧

@The Guitar Show did you ever do a part 2? I enjoyed this...

I really enjoyed part 1! So three years and no part 2? Your idea of very soon is waaaay different than mine.

I cried when he passed away which I hadnt done since John Lennon was murdered.

You just have to attack the hell out of the strings. Act like you're mad at em. Like they stole your lunch money or something.

I saw your Coodercaster video with Henry Kaiser. Have you tried the Lollar Chicago Steel pickup? I noticed Henry had one on his Coodercaster it's a lap steel pickup but lacks the the metal cover. I wondered what tour thoughts are on it. The few demoes I've heard it has more of that vintage grit compared to the Mojo version.
