@@chicagomusicexchange exclusive SG. I've been wanting one of those. what was the name of that Smith's song he played?

@GunnReqwan Ай бұрын

I personally liked the echopark, but the Strat is a really close 2nd. Coming through that Vox, the echopark was just the most entrancing.

I owned that Echo Park for a while. Great guitar! Fun fact it was built for Dean Fertita of Queens of The Stone Age in 2018. He used it on the road and I have pictures. There was no COA so I had Gabe make me one in 2021 which is why it says that.

Johnny Marr songs are like _stories._ Not just riffs or typical chord progressions. I don't even bother to try to learn Smiths songs because i just can't remember *all that stuff.* Every song is like learning the intro to Little Wing, and it took me a lonnnnng time to get that down.... He's amazing. And Nathaniel has seemingly genius-level recall of everything he's ever played. I envy that. The chops, too, of course.

@Erock503 Ай бұрын

I hope you bought that Echopark Nathanial. That thing was built for you.

@scaljas Ай бұрын

How about a video where you play “signature” guitars? Like the Johnny Marr Jaguar, Noel Gallagher Riviera, Billy Duffy Gretsch, etc. Also, his rendition of “Please, Please, Please…” killed me. I just melted listening to it. F-ing amazing.

Every guitar player in the world is envious of how easily Nate conjures great sounds out of any guitar he plays? As for this group of guitars, I'd go with the Echo Park, I share the last name of the luthier, and always wanted to buy a guitar from them...if only I had $3K+ to spend, nobody I'd rather give it to than CME, plus they are trustworthy gentlemen...except when they change the price on the phone!

How about you do a series of episodes focusing on specific artists and sampling the gear they may have used throughout their career. Like, do an episode on Eric Clapton and all of the guitars he used through Cream and onwards, then do an episode focusing on say, Mark Knopfler, then Joe Perry... etc. Kind of choose guitarists that used several types of guitars through their career and that way you can showcase the inventory of the shop including amplifier styles. Just my 2 cents...

Echopark FTW Cool story: I hung out with the owner of Echopark at his house, some years ago when he moved to Detroit. Got to play one of his acoustics. It was the best playing/sounding acoustic I’ve ever touched. It had a soul. If I had the money, I’d grab one of his guitars. They’re a work of art.

That's not a Tuxedo. It's a 360 MG/BT (mapleglo, black trim option). Ric's designation of Tux is for White/BT with a white enameled fretboard, and it's rare. MG/BT were common in the mid-80s.

I'm not sure if I'm imagining it, but I think there was someone else (prolly a few!) making the "Prince" Tele...had it on the tip of my tongue...the Chinese company that everyone was nuts for a few years ago - first it was a Les Paul style for under $200 usd, but I think they make one of those Teles. Given their simplicity, I'd think they'd be ripe for fret work, electronics and the usual hardware upgrades and you 'should' have a decent approximation. It's always down to the necks. If you can work with the neck, you're in business.
