Affordable Guitar Shootout - Chappers Works His Blindfold Magic!

[@RobChappers]

It was so much fun to shoot the old videos again with my bro Captain Lee and the talented crew at Andertons. Thank you so much for all the lovely comments it really means a lot to us and I can’t wait to show you the other really stupid stuff we filmed LOL

[@mknewlan67]

Rob I’ve been gone off and on and I’m not sure why you’ve been gone but it’s been awesome seeing you back. I hope all is well in your life and someday I’d love to own a Chapman guitar. Just waiting till I get some lessons under my belt to justify it. Love your energy!

[@mielv4491]

Honestly if I wasn’t in the room watching this happen, I would assume it was fixed. It’s just mad level guitar feel knowledge from Rob.

[@Pauliewallnutts]

Did you check him for a wireless earpiece?

[@NyneForte]

So glad that he was back!

[@Moit4000]

Love the whole crew but we need more Chappers too

The editor on this video needs to be allowed to run wild and have fun, this video was so bloody hilarious 😂

nitro finished guitars have a very distinctive smell and are usually premium guitars

rob and lee on the same video is just perfection, their chemistry is awesome, I love watching videos with you two on them, you have something special going

[@Moit4000]

totally agree, mate, I chuffin' love these videos. the combo it just pure comedy each time

this is why i started watching sooooo many years ago. man chappers makes it fun - ive really missed this.

[@JustSomeGuy]

Rob's ability to get these right never ceases to amaze me. My favorite one is when he started rattling off the exact names of pickups within seconds of playing them.

Blindfold challenges with Chappers and the Captain are the best videos Andertons makes. The chemistry of these two together is unmatched.

[@arianabarrantes8963]

The level of pure bliss to see you two again on video is undescribable. I grew seeing you two in videos, it's just AMAZING

[@PherotoneStudios]

Laughed throughout the video. Incredible editing and amazing vibes from start to finish.

[@jackberry]

Lee's face when Rob immediately guesses the Jackson correctly at 14:46 absolutely killed me.

[@chrisaaron7755]

We need a montage of all Rob’s mystical powers. The man’s a wizard

[@maxhall8561]

100%

[@PHAER]

There's nothing like these guys on the guitar world on the internet. Just gold!!

[@andybradshaw5971]

I've just watched this again after a year. It still blows me away how Chappers does that. The look on Lee's face is priceless with the Jackson. Great stuff guys, love this.

[@robertblair-uk4ph]

Nice to see these two back together, and that Rob hasn't lost any of that downright ridiculous ability to tell what guitar he's holding. Brilliant stuff

[@devinlowery6869]

Years later and Chappers still blows my mind, Excellent vid as always

[@ingreynelg]

Nostalgia and joy at the same time. One of my favorite episodes ever. Please have Rob more often on the channel.

[@thesandman775]

Been waiting 10 years for another Chap blindfold challenge! That's some major cornball awesome throwback video editing

[@Lsandoval7]

Great to see you two reunited again. I loved watching videos with the two of you. Great laughs! And Rob still has it. Man! He is a genius.

[@jamiehadley6600]

You should get all the folks you have on your station together and have a epic jam. Digital John, Lee. Rebea, Rob, Pete, CiCi, etc. Great stuff

[@bokononx4606]

That's a terrific idea. Rob and Pete doing like a dueling banjos type thing would be a blast. Great video!

[@atonofspiders]

Classic episode of Chappers and the Cappers! What a throwback. Life was different when this was the regular lineup.

[@richgrothaus5971]

Rob literary makes everything he touches sound like you should buy one.👊🏻

[@Cody2nd]

The amount of time and quantity of guitars you’d have to play to be able to do this as accurately as robs done them over the years, is part of why his guitars are so well built.

[@JimDewdGuitars]

My jaw hit the floor when he guessed the Jackson! Rob is a guitar wizard!

[@kantys2]

I always loved editing on your videos but today is just *chefs kiss* Please send a complimento to the editor!

[@emilrostad9720]

The editing is god tier, love it!

[@bradhawk-f6c]

The dynamic, respect, and level of friendship is genuinely something to be jealous of. Makes me incredibly happy every time I see the pairing. Sometimes you meet that person that you don’t see for a long while and the next time you see them you pick right back up like it was yesterday.

[@gohamm8629]

Chappers is such a content factory!!! These never get old!

[@jremi]

I really enjoy these blindfold challenges and yes, the chemistry between Rob and Lee was an added bonus, but the whole team at Andertons is great. They are all my friends but they don't know it. 🤣

[@bokononx4606]

right?

[@charlie-obrien]

Those who don't think that Rob is a serious man when he has a guitar in his hands are now educated. To have all the skills, the vibe and the knowledge that he has stored away and shares with us is Outstanding! I clicked on the video to enjoy the shenanigans that the Captain and Chappers get up to again, but came away impressed with Rob's abilities, as always. Seriously good fun, once again mates. Seriously!

[@Kryogenikz15]

Ah, back to the good ol' days with the Chappers and the Captain. Your challenge videos got me started on Anderton's, and your chemistry is amazing. Also, can we just take a second to admire how good Rob is at guessing guitars while blindfolded? It's absolutely mind boggling how quick he was to get the Jackson.

[@saivignesh4108]

Always feels good to watch any video with Rob blindfolded and made to guess/talk about the guitar. Love the reactions from Captain! Welcome back, Rob!

[@SNESdrunk]

Love to hear Jackson get some love, I had a PS-4 for years, I loved that thing

[@witchfindergeneralelectric8758]

Love when Rob comes back for a visit. Such fun seeing him and Lee reunited. Great video lads. 👍👍

[@plasticoflamingo2952]

Man, I so miss these Captain and Chappers videos. Next time you blindfold Rob, and ask him to guess the guitars, keep in mind, he spends a lot of time in a music store on Malta. Most of the guitars you handed him are the same brands and models he plays with on Malta. I know this is meant to sell what you have in the store, but, throw him something he doesn't spend time with, once in a while. Anyway, thanks, Mates! You folks make the best music store vids!

[@MrBikboi]

These videos are just so much fun, this is bread and butter Andertons imo. I could watch 100 and I'd still find them entertaining.

[@joshuadelsaraza4782]

Glad to hear Chappers said the Jackson was the best one, It's my third and only working guitar. I'm around 5 years of playing and I thought it's one the best guitars I've ever played. Just bought one last Xmas and from that point to now, the guitar helped me a lot of things specially playing Jazz Fusion.

[@schmohawk777]

You know you’re good when you can make a £200 guitar sound like a £2k guitar 🎸 great video :)

[@jeremygoff9868]

This is proof you can hand a pro player any guitar and they can still make good music. Rob is the real deal

[@baldybonce29]

I miss these videos,they make you tube a better place 👌

[@stevebon9688]

How does he do it, respect Rob. You most certainly know your stuff about guitars. Also a talented guitar player, even when blindfolded! 👍 🎶

[@billy1858]

great to see rob back,just like the good ol days.

[@chazbarrientos7691]

i MISS CHOPPERS AND CAPTAIN TOGETHER! I was thinking rob ran out of challenges that is why he never showed up! He's too Good!

[@richardames5215]

Hilarious and so amazing. Lee you're an incredible host. Chappers come back more often. so fun and thank you!

[@riffmondo9733]

Good seeing you two together again. I would love to see the entire gang together in one episode. “Bring Your Rig” shootout. Each brings a small rig and guitar and then lots are drawn and each has to play the other’s rig.

[@grahamstuart9164]

It is so good to see rob back. These videos have suddenly become fun again!!!!! Don't know what happened and don't care. As long as these 2 are back together again by my happy camper. Long live the reunion

Great to have Chappers back, talented man. We all make mistakes, forgive & forget! Have him back soon!!!!!

[@scottturek4655]

What mistakes are you referring to? He isn’t on the channel anymore because his family lives in Malta. Makes it difficult to shoot weekly internationally

[@chrisdavies9143]

Great fun this video and the editing was absolutely brilliant, elevated the whole thing.

[@joejohnson8966]

7:30 I have been listening to this lick for over a decade now. Massive nostalgia. Learned it day 1.

[@1921sebi]

I vaguely remember that lick I think. Do you know what it is from? Edit: NVM I FOUND IT its from "Just got paid" by ZZ Top.

[@BuddyBlues]

Dude I can’t even tell my own guitars apart if I’m blindfolded let alone brands that I played when I was a teenager. Remarkable. The edits in this one were hilarious

[@adityap8746]

What a fun video! Editor(s) had an absolute field day haha! Not sure how Rob gets so many of these right every single time. His awareness of the guitars he interacts with is other-worldly.

[@grene1955]

The other interesting thing for me, was that how each guitar brought out a different style of playing. Very cool! And nice to see Chappers back in the room!

[@redlespaul8139]

My first foray into Andertons videos was as a blindfold Gibson Vs Epiphone with Rob and Lee. Back when the videos where all on robs channel. This makes me feel nostalgic.

[@BrandonOutside]

Good job as always Chappers! 🤘 And those Liquid Death things are funny. I first discovered them at a concert this summer. I asked for a water, then the person turned around and grabbed the can. I almost said ‘wait no, I said water please,’ then I saw the actual label! I guess they decided to disguise it in a beer can so you still look cool even if you’re just drinking lame old h2O 😆

[@hattonaxeman]

You're basically right, the founder worked back stage at a gig and saw that the artist we're drinking water in red bull cans. The rest is history

[@Vivi_9]

Download? That festival made me hate Liquid Death lol

[@kasnitch]

Excellent to see Rob and his impressive guitar skills again . Looking forward to the 'expensive' stuff video .

[@simonsmith9942]

Missed the two of you doing videos together. So much fun and so good!

[@yurita1984]

This guitars are so different in controls and shapes. It was easy for Rob to figure it out. But anyway, my favourite couple of guitar-tube🎉

[@anthonycutt8854]

It's kinda funny, first Anderton's video I watched was these two demoing the Boss ME-80, now that's back in a new form and so is Rob.

[@josueignaciomm]

This is just as good as I remembered it. For guitar lovers all around the world is just as entertaining as it could be. Please bring Rob on more often!

say what you want about Chappers but the man knows his guitars ! love him and the Cap together !

[@remibottriaux]

Really happy to see this old school kind of videos and having Rob back! Enjoyed this one from the first second to the last!

[@davelowry123]

I bought an East Coast acoustic from Andertons a couple of months back -- such good value for money!

[@mikemercer5808]

When I started playing back in 1981, there were no good cheap guitars. We had Hondo, and that was basically it. Eventually Squier started in around 83 and they were from Japan and still about $400-$500 bucks. Now you can get great stuff for around $200. It's insane. BTW. It doesn't surprise me Rob liked the Jackson best. I have 2 Dinky guitars that are about $400 and they are amazing for the $$$.

[@pg123ab]

Great to see you two together

[@reyngel]

The editing of this felt so old school Captain and Chappers. I was laughing out loud pretty hard 😂

[@Lez325]

Great to see Rob back- welcome home fella

[@GabrielDeYoung1]

I play a JS22 which is one step up from the Jackson and highly recommend them as a starter guitar. action is really good for the price, pots are smooth and the sound is great for the price.

[@howardthrust]

Back by "Popular Demand", then? Well, SOMETIMES "Popular" is "RIGHT"...and this DEFINITELY is that!! Just MAGIC, mateys! Many thanks to You and Yr. Crew!! "Unsolicited Plug for Chapman Guitars": all of Rob's amazing "Guitar Whisperer Chops" DO translate to his product's end result. Picked up an earlier (INDO) ML-1 Modern Barri (came with Duncans...which DO work exceeding well)...and am having a hard time putting 'er down! 🙂

You’d think after all these blindfold challenges, they’d get old and uninteresting. But no, this is the best yet!
