The assistant engineer here… if anyone wants to know about the studio or nerd out on gear, let me know!

[@RickMcCargar]

Awesome video! What would be the top three recording tips you'd give to amateurs who home-record their own music. Thanks for your time.

[@youKnowWho3311]

Tech guy here..... you guys are telling me you don't backup to multiple clouds with mirrored files?

[@J_Fowler]

absolutely yes!!

[@kyleturner3084]

Since you all discussed file management, can you elaborate in more detail for the rest of us to avoid losing files?

[@lmrecorders]

You're still using spinning hard drives? Genuinely curious and not being a snoot. I've been using SSDs since 1 TB has been affordable.

[@davidpepper442]

This has to be one of the greatest rooms in the history of the world. Thanks Buk

[@ebay9302]

Don't you mean the greediest room?

[@DreaNEO]

Vince Gill wearing a Homeskoolin shirt. What a room full of fantastic gear

[@grantandrews4826]

"That's Chet Atkins' guitar." The chills nearly threw me from my folding chair.

[@TomMarvan]

Same here, and the reaction from the people in the room… well, we miss Chet dearly.

[@jessefillmore]

When you are in "The Great" Vince Gill's home studio . Talking guitars , while Vince walks around barefoot with OG ,HomeSkoolin' shirt on ........Ole Ukle Larry , that reflects who you are ! AWESOME !!!!

[@premierguitar]

What an absolute treat to see Vince and hear these stories! Big thanks to Uncle Larry!!

[@tfajsh]

Engineer said get a Samsung T7 hard drive Vince :”I had one of those, 78 4 door, terrible gas mileage”

[@model_number_band]

"Tune that guitar,,,,, I just did.." hah! Buk - this channel is not only the premiere guitar online guitar expression classroom, with perpetual deep dives into what it means to play for joy and the love of music. But beyond, a VIP look at what the most senior musicians see (and many DON'T SEE) in Nashville. It is an utter privelidge to witness. I know I speak for everyone that every time a new video lands, we all have a quick pulse of childlike excitement about what's inside today's present.

[@chuckbouscaren3898]

Uncle Larry, I can't tell you how much I appreciate how you look out for the Homeskoolers by inserting us into the fucking greatest adventures I for one could ever hope to experience! " '59, I heard that was a pretty good year." Hehe, nice one. Thanks Tom and thanks so much to Vince, the host of that musical scene!

[@RollieFingers59]

Holy shit Vince Gill on the show with a Homeskoolin’ T shirt? We are the cool kids. Not even gonna talk about the geetars in that room and what a sweet guy Vince is. Thanks Unc

[@joshellyson]

A million thanks Uncle Larry. Mr Gill is one of my musical heroes, and now he is right up there as one of my favorite comics, he is a funny guy. The fantastic vibe of the place, the instruments, and most importantly, the people just pours through the screen. Your generosity in sharing your amazing life is just astounding, and i am the richer for it. Thank you so very, very much.

[@guitarguru4492]

I love Vince. You can just just tell he is genuinely a sweet soul. Thanks Uncle Larry!

[@gbarge4]

Uncle Larry, please keep these coming. Vince is a national treasure and it sure looks like the whole project is loaded with real princes. Also, it warmed my heart that Vince made such sentimental choices for his four from the fire picks. Makes me think my own sentimentality might be okay and is nothing to be embarrassed about.

[@jerrymckenzie1858]

He didn't hesitate for a moment

[@Booboonancy]

Nope, nothing wrong with being sentimental. Always follow your gut and heart.

[@thg705]

What an honor to be in the studio/home of Vince Gill. Thanks so much for this behind the scenes peak! What a life, huh?

[@fleshbhones]

What an absolute legend, I'm not even a country guy and Vince is one of my all time favourites.

[@darrylpoulsenmusic]

Even Vince''s talking voice is perfectly in tune!

[@bobhill102]

Oh my Lord recording royalty,and the one and only Vince Gill, this was truly special and thanks for the tour of this historic studio. Thank you 👍

[@toneseeker4968]

You've gotta be freaking kidding me...Vince Gil's house?!! This is the most amazing Uncle Larry video to date for me, and that's saying a whole lot, especially since Ann Wilson is my top female Rock singer of all time, and all those videos were so awesome. Watching this video gave me such joy and elation that for 11 minutes and 43 seconds I totally forgot about my own shit in life and felt that I was one privileged SOB that got lucky enough to get an invite to come over to Vince Gil's house and hang and swap out stories with the boys. Then, the video was over and reality hit ...hard! No other youtube video has hit me like this one has. I grew up playing guitar with Clint Black and his brothers in Houston, and we were fans of his since back in the late 70's, early 80's, if I recall right. And, my favorite episode of Clint's "Talking in Circles" show was when he had Vince on there. Vince is renowned for being a great guy, but it sure is a great honor to witness that fact first hand. Btw, I swear I'd pay GOOD MONEY to watch a full length video of Vince talking with Tom and the boys and telling stories about his career and ALL his guitars. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, Vince for allowing Tom to create this video at your home...and, Thank you Tom for posting it. I'm a huge fan of you both.

[@telemangler]

Thanks Uncle Larry! Vince is a gem! It’s always humbling to see how down to earth these guys and gals are. Thanks for letting us tag along.

[@bertblue9683]

Vince is easily my favorite musician of all time and seeing him in raw moments like this solidifies my opinion even more. He's one of the few stars I would enjoy a day hanging out with.

[@Booboonancy]

I couldn’t be “musical” to save my life but I appreciate great music and great humans. Vince Gill just warms my heart. You can see the little boy inside him, vibrant and alive, in a “candy” store, never mind his talent. Love it. Thanks !

[@rosskirkes5470]

What an awesome experience! Thank you Uncle Larry for sharing, and thanks to your awesome fellow musicians! I had a smile on my face the entire time... so much my cheeks hurt by the end of the video. Pure joy!

[@gregb.8280]

Im almost in tears!!! The guitars hes keeping are his first ones!!! That says volumes!!!!!!!

[@richardcaliendo3138]

Can’t add anything more to what was said. Wow. Just wow. We’re so blessed to have you uncle Larry.

[@MrThunders66]

I remember the day tom and vince came into timeless guitars in Cleveland and spent the whole day playing guitar and hanging out with clyde and myself. What a wonderful day .Tom and vince are truly the nicestmost humble guys..

[@frankierodriguez8661]

Vince's collection is the stuff dreams are made of. Not to mention how funny that man is. Always in good spirits. really contagious and giving his best as a musician and a human being. Larger than life Mr. Gill. That's why we all love him so much.

[@vedranbaotic]

I feel like I should be paying a ticket to see this video. Already my favorite Homeskoolin' episode of all time. I hope there's more to come!

[@wrekkingcru]

All that talent and Vince Gill is one of the nicest, humblest and funniest human beings who ever stood behind a microphone on a stage. Every time I have seen him perform he's made me laugh until my stomach hurt...then he tells a story about his Dad or his wife, Amy - or someone else in his family and it makes me look around and hope people won't see a grown man fighting back tears. Blessings and Peace to you, Amy and your family, Vince. Thanks for doing this video, Uncle Larry ;-)

[@nightguy5796]

I love listening to Vince’s stories. He is a seriously nice guy

[@daveblevins3322]

That's because he has God in his heart 🙏🙏🙏❤️

[@paulcook7888]

Vince Gill is so Blessed and he does not take it for granted He is always humble ❤

[@RaiceGeriko]

He's not saving the sound. He's saving the memory.

[@guitarman6600]

AWESOME field trip Unc!! What a genuine person and amazing musician Vince is. And that room is something from all of our dreams! What a memory to record the tracks right there. Thanks!

[@megawattblue]

Thanks for that, Uncle Larry. I became aware of Vince Gill while hearing Liza Jane on my car radio about 30 years ago, when riding home from work. A fan ever since. This was great to see!

[@braytunes]

That was great. Thanks for taking the time to show us that amazing guitar collection. Can’t wait to hear the record!

[@_alexsams]

Excited to hear this album, what a killer group of musicians. 🤘🤘

[@RevMishka]

Vince your Studio/Home has changed since the last video of a few years ago…simply incredible! Congratulations on all your success…it’s well deserved! Thank you for sharing!

[@miguelluismusic4181]

The good energy melted off the screen into my living room... Thanks Larry...

[@jipes]

Fabulous tour we are so lucky to witness those great moments ! Mr Gill seems to be a super cool person and what a taste for great guitars

[@chrismattsonmusic2067]

Hey Tom, Can't thank you enough for this episode!!! Vince Gill has always been one of my favorites!!! Met him years ago and he is a really a genuine guy and a great player!!

[@carlquance2542]

Fabulous singer, songwriter, guitar player, and a remarkable human. Always a huge inspiration for me and many others.

[@SteveSterlacci]

Sometimes work must get tough over there Larry! What an amazing opportunity. Thanks for sharing with us

[@joanbull9066]

Love the fact that Vince is just like us - he's got this whole big room and he's still tripping over equipment and cords.

[@matthewwayne1929]

Vince Gill is an absolute blessing to the music world

[@williamphillips1852]

Tom All I can say is thank you! You are living everyone of our dreams. If I could spend one day just sitting in that room listening with you guys it would be bucket list complete!!!

[@jeremyversusjazz]

Total legend and what a freaking collection. Oh my God thanks for sharing this uncle Larry.

[@NathanNagel]

My favorite of your videos. I love them all but this was really special. Thanks Uncle Larry!

[@craiggarwoodguitarist.4736]

This is amazing , what a privilege to see this room and all you top guys in your natural environment .. Thanks Buk x

[@jbogle17]

Wow. It is so awesome seeing so many awesome guitars safe and in one spot! Beautiful.

[@springboard8558]

You’re onto something-guitar spa! just what we needed. Thanks for the upload. Vince is the real deal and I cannot wait to hear the music y’all make. BTW-what a guitar collection.

[@tadmorrison]

This is absolute gold. Thank you so much.

[@Fastlane05]

This was an amazing sight to see. I have so much respect for Vince and I am not sure if I would have been more star struck by Vince or his guitars. Wow!

[@allanharris970]

Thank you Uncle Larry. Very cool to see Vince go over his favorite guitars. And the behind the scenes look. Very cool

[@mattroberts4201]

Oh my sweet Lord! Amazing collection, amazing musician and human. Almost cried at the sentimental attachment and stories behind the instruments and people connected to them. Just a gift Uncle Larry, thank you so much for letting us in on that moment.❤

[@michaeldarrin2026]

Talk about Guitar Heaven!!!!!!! God bless you boys and your toys. Great work as usual.

[@edjmcc1958]

Absolutely my favorite entertainer, both music and hearing his stories . Lucky enough to see him live in a small venue in Northern New York..amazing guitar collection

[@MichaelPaul155]

Awesome, Uncle Larry! I can only imagine being in VG's home and seeing that. Thanks to you and Vince for the treat.

[@chris_doubleyou]

Historic moments when those guys get together. Thanks for sharing! I want a book where Vince continues to tell the story of those guitars on each page!

[@StClairMusic]

That was awesome! Vince Gill is one of the best guitarists on the planet. Thanks, Uncle Larry!

[@DavesGuitarGear]

Wow, just wow!! Such a lovely warm relaxed vibe in that room filled with incredible guitars and amazingly talented people. The more I watch Vince Gill the more respect I have for the man in every way. Incredibly talented and hard working, but thoughtful, kind and humble. I had the privilege of seeing Vince with the eagles a few years ago in Liverpool. Vince just slotted right in with the band like he has always been there. Thoroughly enjoyed this.

[@321novrain]

That guitar collection is truly amazing!!!! I'd give anything to spend a day in that room !!!! Thank you for this incredible video !!!

[@RiggioCustomGuitars]

I'm a sucker for this kind of stuff and could listen all day to Gordon...it all comes down to a great song...always

[@duncanfrere2656]

Those Teles, Les Pauls, 335s all lined up, radiating unspeakable quality and rareness, are incredible to see. Thanks for the tour, Uncle Larry, Can't wait to hear what you guys are recording!

[@zenmaestro04]

All I can say is thank you for continuing to provide the greatest guitar content on the internet :-D

[@Richard_Lush]

Love Vince. Thanks for this. I think he’s one of the coolest guitarists out there.

[@stratmagic6893]

That was awesome 👌 thanks so much. My face hurts from smiling thru the entire video. Just remember classmates that Vince Gill could have anyone he wants and he picks our Tom and dear Jedd.

[@michaelmorrisguitar]

Such a cool episode, been a huge fan of Vince since I was a little kid. Thanks for sharing Uncle Larry, love all of your vids and this one especially!

[@uglytuco3829]

What an absolute dream it would be to hang out in that room and nerd out with Uncle Larry and Vince. Holy shit, what a collection! Just incredible!

[@Ruudis9er]

Tom, man it is so cool of you and Vince to let us in to this exclusive world and show us how you Nashville guys roll 😙 Thank you Thank you Thank you 🙏

[@beachcomber4141]

I double what Jedd said. That room is like dream land. OMG. Not only a studio with every guitar tool one could possibly ever dream of, but filled with these amazing musicians and engineers. Vince just seems so damn down to earth and have a great sense of humor. He must be fantastic to work for. Thank you for the glimpse into 'Dreamland'!

[@bigdogaxis]

I can’t wait to hear this record. Love the video. Nobody rolls out the guest list like you Uncle Larry.

[@glennfeit8294]

Thank you Uncle Larry. Enjoy all you do but especially loved this one.

[@brianolson_music]

Omgosh . Whew! That’s just gorgeous . Thanks for the video guys - awesome 👏

[@jimmy7376]

Great fun video! I loved the guitars and the banter back and forth! Matt Rausch, that for the Q & A. I learned a lot!

[@Shamilt3]

Vince is by far my most favorite "star" what a gentleman and incredible player. I knew he had a badass collection but this is above and beyond what i thought.. Thanks Uncle Larry!

[@TheFeelButton]

What an amazing collection and workspace! Cheers Tom!!

[@missopowers]

That was extraordinary, a privilege to hang with you guys for a minute. Thanks for making it real, Tom.

[@pauleugene8286]

Incredible! I could listen to Vince Gill sing and talk for hours.

[@JGsBBQ]

Incredible collection!!! Thx for the inside view Tom!!

[@SkyscraperGuitars]

God DAMN I love these studio talks! Thanks for giving us a peek into the rarified air.

[@jerrydavis6754]

Uncle Larry, your channel continues to be best thing in the world to watch! A million thanks. "couldn't walk for a year" now that's funny!

[@michaelsellman]

Thank you Uncle Larry. Best episode yet!

[@uv777gr]

I was a Vai/Satriani nut when I moved to Nashville in 94-95. Saw Vince at the Starwood and was converted immediately, what a talent!

[@rollingtones6315]

That room must sure be inspiring to play and record in. Wow, what a treat…Thanks for sharing with us Uncle Larry!

[@josuemoreno7479]

i just love Vince talking about guitars , besides lovin' his playing and singing , one of my heroes😊

[@jaycheek254]

My goodness, I'm using the circumcision joke. That was hilarious, and so hilarious, I had to share it with my wife. We love it. Love y'all!

[@John-em8jn]

It's the Wood ! If you buy a house, guitar, violin or almost anything made of wood Before world war 2 it's most likely made with Old Growth Wood. Fantastic sounds and deep colors from the tight dense wood grains.

[@nivek726]

Thank you Tom. Great questions to Vince, and loved hearing his connections to each instrument he chose, esp. the history with his former brother in law. Thanks for doing what you're doing here on your channel. I heard a song today and the guitar solo took me on a journey, no standard string of licks, and then there was this one smear and I thought, if that's not Tom playing, it's someone channeling him. Seriously man, thank you. Happy way belated birthday, you and the good folks you had with you slayed at the birthday show.

[@DannyBrooks1]

Enjoyed the stories about these incredible guitars! Thanks guys for sharing.

[@chrismunsonmusic3432]

Hands down THE MOST TALENTED man I’ve ever seen

[@josephcorcoran8714]

Vince is one of my favorite guitar players. I love that stuff y’all did on These Days.

[@blanejohnson9045]

I appreciate letting us soak in the glory of that room. The other videos of it that I’ve seen were good. But this was great, thanks to some good questions. Thank you thank you 🙏

[@cletussea-ray944]

Absolutely priceless! Thank you dear Uncle Larry

[@ronhipwell5543]

That was awesome! Love Vince Gill! Put him with Uncle Larry and it's just got to be magic!

[@kipmarchetti6123]

Omg dude … VG is such a cool cat … is this heaven … thank you thank you thank you!

[@GoldPhonic]

Vince is the nicest guy in Nashville. I saw him when I was a kid in the 80's, in Muskegon Michigan. It was a huge blizzard and everything was shut down. We figured the Vince Gill show would be cancelled but we still went. We got there and he came out with a guitar player and told us that the rest of his band didn't make it but they were going to still give us a show. I don't recall many details, but remember my Dad going on and on about what a stand-up guy he was to still do the show (with no band) and he earned the respect of ALL of us that day. And, put on an amazing acoustic show. Many years later, I got to meet him and go on the bus (through a buddy and his drummer Billy). Once again, probably the nicest and most humble entertainer I've met. Zero ego, when he should have a massive one. One of my favs!!! Thanks for sharing this clip.

[@michaelfox2989]

Awesome video,as a home guitar player I love hearing Mr Vince speak about his guitars, Great guy..

[@zacherycampbell7296]

This is incredible. The first time I heard about you Tom, was at a Vince Gill concert in Enid Oklahoma! Vince is one of my top 5 favorite players, and seeing you on stage just smiling and rocking out with him instantly made me want to learn more about you. Keep Rockin!

[@silcoxone]

Man.. Good stuff!!! Thanks for sharing Tom!!! Thank you Vince!

[@michael_crean]

This was fantastic! Many thanks to Uncle Larry and the ever gracious Vince for this video. Great questions on the guitars too Tom

[@stevelankford7087]

What a treat that was, Thanks Uncle Larry for bringing that!

[@RipVDub]

Doctor, it's like being invited behind the curtain to see the greats. Always appreciated!

[@joeldowdy404]

Who doesnt love Vince Gill!! Such a talented person and the greatest guitar room ever!!
