In my opinion (won't add humble), the 2 must have guitars are an ES335 & a Telecaster. I'd always loved Teles, but my ex bassist took me to a local music store,1989.(he was going crazy on some of the basses), I was standing there eyeing a beautiful blue 335 (the $4000 price tag, hanging on it precluded my taking it off the hanger), a store employee, said "Let's plug it in." So I did. The tone of that guitar was indescribably beautiful. I was playing very lightly mind you. I realised why BB, Larry Carlton,Alvin Lee,& others had chosen that model. I kicked myself as I could've bought a hideous green one, while I was in HS for less than $500 [all monetary references are in USD]. I recently bought an import copy of the 335, did a little work, bought some very inexpensive pick ups & bridge [all told around $35], levelled frets, crowned them, touch up the depth of the nut slots, & it actually plays very well.(not 335 well, but it's close). Absolutely love those 2 guitar styles. My Telecaster is 1992 USA, it's a dream machine. (Recently, well 6 yrs ago, added the 5 Way Tele/Strat Super Switch. She's absolutely fabulous now.) Of course, my verbosity knows no limits, so I'll stop. PS I'm very jealous.

Thoroughly entertaining! You two work so well together and the amount and quality of vintage guitars was just amazing. You must have put many hours/days into these two videos but it seemed like a labor of love. Many thanks gentlemen.

[@TheGuitarShow]

Thank you Dave, so kind of you 🎸🙏

[@willkupers]

Great show guys.👍🏼👌🏽. ❤ little info about the Gretsch switches. 1. Pickup Selector . Three pos. 2. Master Tone Selector: Tone control switch , three settings. The first position emphasizes bass, the middle is neutral and third offers a slight high-frequency roll-off.

[@TheGuitarShow]

Thanks for this Will 🎸🙏

[@judgeholden4208]

Thoroughly enjoy this. Many thanks from lockdown in Sydney, Australia

[@TJJJJJJJJJJJ]

These videos are definitely making lockdown easier ! (I’m in Sydney too )

Many thanks David - stay healthy, best RG

I’m glad Ramon asks questions because I’ve got so much to learn and it helps!

[@TheGuitarShow]

Thank you!

Love the videos gentlemen. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦 !

Thank you Ben

[@rogeryoung2049]

Great show. I bought my 58 Junior in 1965 and it is still in my possession and plays great

[@glenngross605]

Who would have thought that I’d have a cardboard case displayed? I had no idea what the value of it was, but I’m glad that I bought a proper hard case for my 59 Junior to live in. Nice job gents, thanks!

[@TheGuitarShow]

Many thanks Glenn

[@whoozworldizthis4221]

Absolutely awesome info guys. Those guitars sound incredible. And we love the "geeky stuff" those little details are the pure gold that no one knows love your videos

[@mass_of_rest]

great great show with plenty of things to learn about!!! congratulations

[@TheGuitarShow]

Glad you enjoyed it! thanks

[@Joey_McElroy]

Those 330 and 335’s sound like heaven. ❤ glorious.

[@youssefkasim7556]

Love these videos guys. Are those all Bob’s guitars? If they are, I’m jealous😂. Keep it up guys.

[@Rockbeareguitars]

They belong to a fellow collector, a very good friend of mine. I also help keep them set up,so it’s a bit like a home from home to visit. We’re going to be visiting some other chums soon too, lots more stuff (and blether) to come…

[@babagadoush1]

Could listen to you boys all day!

[@TheGuitarShow]

Thanks

[@Greg-rd8qr]

Great show! Love the guitars!!!!

[@TheGuitarShow]

Thanks Greg

[@Sthackenberg]

The redish dots are coming from the filler, first guitar is opaque white lacquered, then fillered and afterwards comes the color. But filler is grey, with the aging of the top coat it can went into a red grey colour!

[@TheGuitarShow]

Thanks for this

[@Rockbeareguitars]

Thanks - I always wondered what the reaction under my TV’S was…

[@HiHello-ku1fl]

Nice guitars.

[@TheGuitarShow]

Thanks 🎸🙏

[@kellinash6392]

Don’t wait 2 years for another unboxing if possible

[@TheGuitarShow]

Too right - we will do one very soon

[@revelry1969]

Man you guys are knocking it out with these videos. Thanks! Of course that Trini is a good guitar. It’s a 335 with a different looks. Yes Elvis used a hagstrom

[@TheGuitarShow]

Thanks - thanks also for the info on Elvis

Very interesting re the red marks on the LP Jr... I have a 56 and wondered about them as well... tks

[@airwatersun]

You guys just blow my mind!

[@moontheloon1969]

A joy to watch!

[@TheGuitarShow]

Thank you 🎸🙏

[@burt2800]

Don't get me wrong, I loved the video and appreciate all the knowledge transmitted but why ON EARTH didn't you play those double cuts?

[@TheGuitarShow]

I agree - we should have played them!

[@futuras1234]

Sorry to be a pedantic geek about Les Paul Specials - there are FOUR versions of the DC. V1: 1958. Switch above the controls, hard edge body, neck joins the body at the end of the fretboard V2: 1959. Switch moves, body more rounded, neck joins the body at the end of the fretboard V3. 1959. Same as above BUT the neck joins the body at the 22nd fret and the pickup is very slightly further back. Seems to be around the 93xxxx serial number range. Some have the plastic spacer, some don't. V4: 1960. Neck still joins the body at the 22nd fret, pickup moved even further back, new pickguard shape introduced. What's the serial of the Special you're playing Bob? It must be very late '59 to have those specs. Or it sat around and was finished later? The only thing consistent with Gibson is their inconsistency! Keep up the good work guys, these shows are GREAT!

[@thebobandramonshow]

Thanks Rob, v interesting and you’re right I’d omitted to mention the sharper edges of the earlier ones. Both my TV’S have 60 serial numbers. The TV in this video IS 59, the Special 60

[@jonnybeck6723]

KZbin algorithm keeps feeding this back to me... That's ok... I'll watch it again!

[@TheGuitarShow]

Thanks Jonny lol

[@ejm922]

where are these guitars? a shop or a private collection please?

[@TheGuitarShow]

Private collection we now do this on the Bob and Ramon KZbin channel

[@ryanfulldark2775]

Yes! Another one? Y’all are spoiling us 😂

[@TheGuitarShow]

Pleasure Ryan 🎸🙏

[@connor_selby]

Great video guys!

[@TheGuitarShow]

Thanks Connor

[@dannyhowell3184]

Lovely video. I really enjoyed that. I have a zero fret on a Burns Marvin guitar, and the action is super low. There can be wear on the zero fret, however. It can be easily fixed though.

[@jonnybeck6723]

The "wee thing" you guys do betwix'd @9:58 and 11:ish is really sweet (!)

[@RavenMadd9]

Easy on the coffee, Ramon, Mississippi John Hurt would never pick that fast!

[@TheGuitarShow]

Lol, you are so right

[@deandrepablo9110]

Ramon what song are you playing on 5:25 on this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/hoS5lIJra9WkmtU ? I love that octave slide but I don’t know what song it is. Thanks!

[@damianburgess295]

Talking of fat Hands I shook hands with Jools Holland after one of his gigs, he had tiny sausage hands/fingers, I was amazed how he was able to stretch his fingers over the piano after seeing him play.

[@paulcowart3174]

So Bob do you warrant the theory of the one pick up guitars strings resonate/vibrate more than the two pup model's ?? Love these safari's Also to both of you...any dog's in this bunch ? Hand made are not all created equal of course

[@TJJJJJJJJJJJ]

The single pup ES guitars sound phenomenal, but the pup is in a different position to the TD so no idea if it’s just from the lack of a neck pup magnet pulling on the strings or just the diff position

[@Rockbeareguitars]

In my experience, Juniors usually sound hotter than specials and Esquires sound (even) sharper than Teles, so there is definitely something going on. Whether it’s neck pickup magnet pull or phantom loading I don’t know, but the market seems to agree, favouring Juniors, but perversely, Tele’s!

[@deanoguitarguy2171]

Nice video. Btw Brian May put a zero fret on his red special because it made sense!

[@zankyalbo2208]

the 6120 is 'Western Orange' .... with a tone toggle switch, not unlike the tone circuit on early Teles

[@TheGuitarShow]

Thanks for this Albo

[@TheFairway8]

My short scale 59 melody maker came in its original cardboard croc case its a bit tatty but it is over 60 years old

[@Longhorn.Rock_Roll61]

I wish I would've kept the SG that my Dad got me in ,75 I probably already told you I managed to keep my ,86 model but anyway you guys know the new ones like 2019 SG Gibson not Epiphone but they have gotten better

[@MrEddie-gf3yg]

This video is a bit of a love letter to P-90 based guitars!

[@TheGuitarShow]

Thanks Eddie

[@rheinhardtgrafvonthiesenha8185]

I love my Gibson electrics. Set neck, Humbuckers or p90’s. A Gibson is made whereas a Fender is assembled. Now we move into acoustics, a Gibson is still made but a Martin is born. Next level. Those old Martins and even now the higher end Martins are Swiss watches. That old D28 digs into my chest, it’s awkward, the neck is not only big but the shape feels like it’s from a different place and time, then you strum a 6 string chord and sit there like a little kid saying duuuude. That’s what sound should sound like. I think Martin looks at Gibson like Gibson looks at Fender. Young upstarts lol. Hey at least they look at Gibson because the look so far down their noses at Taylor’s you’d get your ass kicked trying to walk in with one at a bluegrass festival. Not my genre persay but I do go to the festivals from time to time. You’ll hear “I wouldn’t play no damn Taylor boy, bolt on neck piece of crap from California”. That’s real. Then ironic enough when the lights go down they break out their Telecasters (yeah, bolt on neck from California)🤔🤔🤔

[@TheGuitarShow]

I agree the old D18s, and D28s are my favourites

[@davemountain9544]

There were about 75 golden Höfner’s not 45. Great video guys

[@nickwilson9210]

335 came out in 58 and had no binding on the neck

[@TheGuitarShow]

Thanks Nick

[@adamwalters5850]

My 60 DC Junior is exactly the same as that

[@Vidar.m]

Acid in the wood likely reacts with the paint

[@TheGuitarShow]

Good point

[@afterglow2020]

I didn't know Peter Frampton and David Gilmour had a KZbin channel.

[@Longhorn.Rock_Roll61]

But I do realize I'm a carpenter so I know how the wood is in older homes that are took care of . Hardwood softwood they try to grow them to fast I guess in my humble opinion

[@MrEddie-gf3yg]

Will there be a "Pete Townshend - History of His Guitars" in the near future?

[@ryanfulldark2775]

@@TheGuitarShow It’s just awesome watching you play! I watch a TON of guitar KZbin, I’ve seen some amazing players but you’re the only one that can play almost every style masterfully and at will. You deserve more respect than you get on here, not to say many of us don’t already see your brilliance, sir. We do. I can’t wait to hear your record! From one guitar player to another, 🍻!
