Andertons Shop Tour! - Explore the Store with Chappers and the Captain

[@lducati]

Mr. Captain, you should to take a picture with the same guitar as your Grand Father, since you still have it! Put this picture side by side with the original one.

[@davecarsley8773]

I think when addressing a Captain, the extra "Mr." is unnecessary. Captain is the prefix.

[@JonathanCooperGB]

Went to a competing guitar shop chain in Reading and, because I am freakishly tall, was able to source a "top shelf" Gibson to try out. No sooner had I lowered it to strumming position before a man came and asked me what I was doing, why was I taking instruments off the wall, etc. It wasn't even an overly expensive one. Andertons has spoiled me with being able to touch and taste all sorts of high priced strung wonderness ... and I now will not shop anywhere else.

[@Skijumptoes]

Jonathan Cooper our local PMT have locks on everything now, it's really sad that you can't freely check the instruments weight and feel as you browse, plus the staff seem annoyed if you're constantly asking to try multiple guitars in your hand.

[@user-oe9lk5tb5w]

[@trindermon]

thats a shame... PMT in Manchester are really helpful - they dont want you grabbing the 3k guitars, but most others all you do is a quick "check polite ask" and then whip it down.

Kent was a US distributor that rebranded made in Japan guitars back in the 60’s and 70’s. Don’t know if they sold in the UK though. Bowie did play a Kent during the Spiders era, so maybe.

[@user-fk5lu6jp8p]

Poor british fellas - get on that french train to cross that pool of water and come to thomann. You'll find that some shops are good, great even... yet thomann is on a completely different level. The whole of Anderton's would fit within thomann's drums department, leaving room to spare. I'm talking real drums - the whole of Anderton's would also fit within thomann's electrical drums department, which is a different place altogether. I'm sure Anderton's is a good shop - but if Anderton's is 'great', thomann is 'heavenly', just by virtue of comparison. Still, the video content of Anderton's, to me, is vastly superior, which makes Anderton's the more entertaining youtube shop for sure - credit to the Captain, Rob, Bea, Joss and of course Pete. Especially Pete.

[@GrimKage]

Yawn. Maybe they have the biggest shop, but Anderton's have something they do not have: Character, personality and the ability to brighten your day with a simple gear video.

[@AstraVex]

I travelled all the way from South Wales last year and stopped in, bought a set of strings, and simply just wandered around in awe of all the beautiful guitars. Also tried out a Schecter Omen Diamond Series 7-String in one of the practice rooms and Rob gave me a nod of approval through the window as I played some neo-classical shred :) Life Goal Completed!

I've been playing guitar for nearly 5 years now, and it has been awesome watching the Anderton"s crew along the way. Probably the first guitar related content I found on KZbin. It's impossible to state how much of an impact it has had on my guitar playing journey so far; Bea is one of my absolute favorite guitar players, Danish Pete is incredible, Chappers is a beast. It has also been rewarding to see Lee improving so much as I learned at the same time. The Anderton"s store looks incredible too, the brand everyone has managed to build (especially as other brick and mortar music stores struggle) is really a testament to how important it is to connect with your customers on a more personal level. Even though I've never met any of the guys, watching the videos for so long has made Anderton"s seem like a hometown music store, even though I live in the Southern US! Same for Riff City as well. Keep it guys, and I ever make it to England, Anderton's will be paid a visit!

[@CraigMcClellan]

Just curious why the acoustic section is so close to the doors and windows. Isn't that area of the shop the hardest to temperature control? It would be most prone to large swings in temperature from the sun? Obviously I've never been there and maybe it's not an issue. It Is a beautiful store.

[@andym28]

Craig McClellan Thievery is more likely to occur with an evil shaped axe of doom like a Jackson Randy Rhodes hence acoustics nearer the doors.

It always strikes me odd when I see the inside of buildings in the United kingdom. Watching the walkthrough of your music seems so funny because the ceilings are really low. And the aisles are really narrow. It seems like everything is so compact. I live in the US and it just seems like everything's bigger here.. I would be afraid of knocking something over in your store. Just walking through it. I have a wonderful selection of everything and I love watching your program on youtube. I just strikes me funny I don't know why. My favorite band from your neck of the woods It's got to be def leopard. Have you ever had any of those guys come in to your shop? Over the years..

Eh, meeting Mr. Page would be “ok” but in no way would it top meeting Rob and Lee 🤪 Seriously though if England can be scratched off my bucket list, these 3 things would be part of the experience while visiting!

Happy nine years guys! Been watching Chappers and The Captain for a couple of years now. Keep on keeping on! Gear reviews have been very helpful and just watching you guys play and discuss have helped bring reality to the whole situation when wondering what certain gear sounds like and if it would suit my needs. And of course the shenanigans are most appreciated. Lee, It does seem like you’ve been more open to learning the rock ‘n’ roll side of the guitar and sometimes you really open up and let it wail quite impressively. Rob, you’ve come a long way since your first KZbin videos! Congratulations on your business, and obviously all of your other successes. Keep the videos coming!

I wish we had something like an Andertons here in Australia. The closest we have is Allans/Billy Hyde, which has a pretty big store in Melbourne, but in terms of guitars in their brick and mortar store, they stock 95% Gibson and Epiphone, with only a few Yamaha, Kramer and Sterling (with some second-hand guitars of various brands available online - I don't know about you, but I wouldn't buy a second hand guitar without trying it first). If you want literally any other brand you have to hope that one of the few small stores that are scattered around the suburbs stocks it (which they probably won't).

[@LeeHutchingsdrumsUK]

I like Andertons but was annoyed that, when looking for a bass guitar, was unable to access the bass room because a guitarist was using it as a demo room to shred away at full volume - even though the guitar practise rooms were available. I don't know why they were in there, but they were for a while. Unfortunately, when I spoke to them, the staff were not helpful, which is a shame as they normally are. I then left the store and bought my bass guitar elsewhere.

I think Rob & the captain should set up their own full band rigs including bass, drums and keyboards. Then jam their full respective rigs to see who's best.

You've got a really cool music store. If I'm ever in the UK, I'll definitely visit Andertons. Cheers from NC, USA.

Kent guitars. I had one of their 335-looking hollowbody basses in high school. Sounded like a bullfrog croaking through a torn speaker, no matter what amp I used.
