I love the cuts where the director asked Mario to casually ask Erick something

[@krackle69]

Mario: "hey I like your inlays, tell me about it" Erick: "... yeah"

[@Emergentministry]

Lol I'm the same way. I would have been like * silence...... They are square.

[@noire1991]

Not judging at all but I have a friend that is exactly like that all the time because he is always high haha

[@nudsh]

Ibanez welcomes Mario and Eric from Chon on this episode of "An Introvert Conversation"

[@eldirtyfaygo5395]

They ain't introverts. Introverts in reality never shut up when they love a subject this dudes are dead brain stoners.

[@elliottm1234]

I got to have a chat with Mario once at one of their shows in the smoking area, and they are literally this chill 24/7. As somebody who regretfully gets star struck, his demeanour really relaxed me and I felt like I was casually congratulating an old friend for how good the show was. Sound dudes!

[@timseidel584]

Most talk...some play guitar

[@riwaj9277]

i got to be friend with mario on instagram 😁

[@ibanezrg7421]

Ibanez: hooks up Chon and Polyphia fat. Chon & Polyphia: These guitars are pretty ok.

[@Mr.Goldbar]

it's more like this. Chon: These guitars are pretty ok. Polyphia; THESE ARE BETTER THAN ANYTHING YOU'VE EVER SEEN IN YOUR LIVES AND WE KNOW YOU ONLY WISH TO HAVE GUITARS LIKE OURS

[@Atzensindkacke]

Cholyphonia?

[@OwnedRL]

Wow, getting these guys to talk must be like getting blood from a stone. Great guitars though.

[@eldirtyfaygo5395]

Stoners. The most uninteresting people to talk to.

[@vonbeaver99]

There’s a bit a barrier when your first language is music

[@tch8787]

They’ve so much time in there bedrooms...not talking lol

[@sudaknot]

its almost like it was a strategic move to be like listen you guys are basically gonna interview each other.

[@othorion6955]

Shouldn't just assume stuff

[@mitsuda]

“So, uh, what about Ibanez helps Chon be Chon?” “...” “Definitely, uh...the way it sounds...” “...” “...and the way it plays.” “...” “...are the two biggest factors” “...” “...” “...yeah I agree.”

[@EthanHGray]

The way they talk is literally defined by the use of ellipses. "..."

[@jsan2548]

I mean… (…) Yeah… (…) …he’s not wrong…

[@Jacob_Elwood]

Mario really embracing his role as a plumber

[@Malum09]

Hearing them talk is like being relaxed with your stoner friends

[@jacobk4n3]

I sorta love how uncomfortable these guys are during interviews

[@PursuitSk8]

Same, I love them haha

[@Magumba_State]

Coming from a fellow stoner, they're both taking a 1 day tolerance break for this interview

[@Kaonashimusic]

@@Magumba_State lmao, they speak really similar to my stoner friend irl

[@ashplaysbass]

My guess is that they’re just baked

[@dakotalocke]

I think they just hella stoned

[@felipe8511]

i love how they both have very distinctive playstyle and preferences, yet their harmony is on an insane level, the last bit of if's main riff shows it perfectly

[@aastralplane]

Mario is committed to his origins with this overalls he's rocking

[@balamsky]

My god, they’re so excited that they forgot to express it!

[@douevendjent3125]

2:03 I love how they didn't edit out someone shitting their pants. Lmao guitars look sick

[@alexmarion2674]

fucking made my day my dude

[@surrealducks]

Oh my god

[@defecatedcactus120]

I didn’t hear that until you mentioned it, awesome

[@joshalicea9870]

It’s whatever they are sitting on I heard it like 10 times

[@sporkfr]

omg thank you for this comment bro im literally crying this was so hilarious

[@peterd5901]

These guys are literally the "chillest" dudes I've ever seen. Just so low-key about everything it's pretty funny.

[@nicholasluna2141]

Mario sounds like he’s held at gun point. at 5:17 lol

[@pedrorivera3711]

Lol

[@Oborowatabinostk]

I know this about the guitars but their bassist and drummer are sooo good

[@thedanksavatron7782]

I'm feeling that EH10 ! Love Ibanez guitars! These two young guitarist are great & it's great to see Ibanez sponsor them with their own models! Ibanez is definitely the most versatile brand out there!

[@RichardGarcia93]

The homies may not be very much of talkers in front of cameras but as shown at the end. They pour their hearts out into the songs. So full of emotions.

[@stinky_lizard]

Who else listen to chon since newborn sun

[@asmrburst4238]

Actually been listening to them since playing a Battle of the Bands with them back in 2010. Whats surprising is they didn't even make the top 3

since original demo

[@brisbrg5179]

Since homey

[@jonetsu_lv]

"If" being my favorite song off the self titled album, this interview hit different for that haha.

[@RTSRAZORBACK]

I love how "in their shell" these guys still are, despite being famous and having so many appearances in videos. They seem so down to earth, like "this isn't really happening" haha

[@SkeeterMcBeater]

Good for you guys. You deserve it. Been supporting you sense before your first album. Now y'all got your own signature models. They grow up so fast.

[@Mad-v3d0n]

Feels like Mario wanted an RG and Erick wanted a Talman but some one made them to make an AZ model cause everyyy one has retro-modern strat

@@obnoxious2909 Scotty from Polyphia claims that's the reason why he couldn't have 3 singles on his sig. But I know there are 3 single AZs that exist. One of them is the ATZ100 (sort of, it's 3 single sized humbuckers) and the other is a custom one made for Tomo Fujita

We Need Chon back!!!

[@okanaux]

i hope the first riff is an actual song because that was the best sound that i ever heard

[@FloridaSprings12]

That’s their song “rosewood”

[@karlikot]

So Basically CHON now is Erick and the Camarenas

[@jonlukevandam]

*always has been meme*

[@catboyzee]

Love how unpretentious these guys are. Its kind of refreshing. And you can also tell they really don't know much about these instruments, like they literally just got them.

[@Bayo106]

those are their custom guitars. signature models ...

[@MELLOPHILIA]

So damn talented. Literally like their guitars are telling a story

[@gb-nz]

7:00 - IF

[@BeatsAndGuitars]

This should be the official video...so good

[@vicarious8567]

They are seriously chill and sweet in person. But their interviews are so awkward xD love them to bits either way!

[@ash_3337]

chon will forever be the band in Daft punk’s One More Time video to me- just mellow but very brilliant and futuristic galactic vibes. This song at 7:00 is just too beautiful for words. Commenters talking bout the interview too much. This performance is better than the studio version in my opinion...

[@davidmultimedia2024]

I'm clearly not the only one thinking of Mario and Luigi, except Mario went with purple instead of red lol Mario even has the overalls, and Erick has the green guitar

[@lapercog]

"we're chonk"

[@ramoncarrasco2208]

LaperCog INA STOP AHHHHHH

[@Magumba_State]

more like "we're chonked"

[@graphicnick07]

Saw the Eh10 during one of the namm coverage videos reminded me of a talman but cooler. I had no clue who CHON was but seeing them play at the end of this video made me a fan, going to check more of their stuff out now!

[@user-yn2ct2ie9m]

I keep checking out chon interview vids hoping that they'll something beyond "yeah" and "it sounds good." I guess, I just need to accept them for who they are lol

How much did they smoke prior to this interview? Amazing guitars though.

[@Magumba_State]

They're taking a tolerance break for that interview that's why there so paranoid

Jacob do you mean that they took a tolerance break then smoked prior to the interview, or were on a tolerance break during the interview

[@Magumba_State]

@@Jack-bn3dz They were previously high but stayed sober for the interview* (strictly for the interview)

Agree with the sentiment; feels right at home, even coming from the RG series.

What I really want is a 24 fret guitar with stainless steel frets, a humbucker in the bridge, a single coil in the neck position, no middle pickup, but with a fixed bridge, but nobody makes one.

Big love for the homies

[@Blasphemian_6]

I feel absolutely terrible for saying this but I think when your this good at the guitar or really anything in life you almost have to sacrifice your personality. I find that with musicians who are my heroes I listen to them talk in an interview and they're so boring. Like how do you create modern masterpieces and dont have a personality. I find it hard to believe. Or maybe they just hate interviews and are cool af who am I after all lol. I love them regardless

[@charlieshepard1427]

lmao late reply, but these guys are actually pretty great irl. they’re a bit awkward but have a good sense of humor and great personalities

[@zammie01]

Maybe some, but not all. If you listen to Paul Gilbert or Andy Timmons there are really good conversationalists.

[@rollipollirock]

THEY ARE SO DUCKING HIGH !🦆

[@shredvansshredquarters]

You can AB--SO---LOOTLEE count on a few things with these guys, the jams are tasty, few words more notes, another reason to like them and keep liking 'em is that their successes have NOT and seemingly WILL NOT changed these duders

The AZ needs 2 things, some ebony fretboard models (or rosewood now that CITES is over). Second, more burst finishes like on the MSM100, or bring back Royal Violet and burst it (from the RG1712RV), Vintage Violin (like on the JCRG-3VV) or, Nebula Blue Burst like the RG652AH
