Guessing The Guitar By Sound

[@breearbor4275]

Jenny saying "idk the names" and then perfectly describing the guitar down to the colour is amazing lmao. That's the sign of someone who listens to their spouse play a lot!

[@JamieSarai]

To be fair, at first she did say is it a Fender company guitar? She defaulted to Gibson.

[@HSithis]

and in truth, it does sound kinda brown

[@jeremyvanengen3341]

I think he was just playing brown

[@DeathTrooper85831]

I’m so

[@joakobm60]

@@JamieSarai i mean theres a lot of companies that make hollow bodies than gibson, and are better known for making them like gretsch

[@DrewKane]

5:20 - "Do you want me to play the Gibson?" - you gave away the fact that you're playing the Martin!

[@kane6529]

Yeah I noticed that too 😂

[@samuraiguitarist]

HA! I didn't catch that

[@miljann98]

Could have meant that he'll show him the "gibson" now that he guessed the first one as Martin, not confirming he was correct or not. Since he has only 2 full body acoustics that good sounding

Samurai Jenny really showed she's subconsciously noticing the qualities of each guitar, despite not knowing the terms too well. She'd probably do better than 70% of music forum nerds at blind guessing the guitar's attributes. Hopefully I can pay attention in the way she is.

I think Gretsch guitars have such a unique and signature sound that as long as you're familiar with it you could fairly reliably pick it out.

[@ksmooththeengineeringdude]

"Hold the sound hole up to my nose" HOW DID HE KNOW IT WAS AN ACOUSTIC?! Duhn Duhn DUUUHHHHHHH 4:58

[@samuraiguitarist]

Busted, there's actually a LOT of editing in this, the entire shoot was cut down from about 2 hours. So he likely played it or strummed it a bunch before I asked him but I cut it out.

[@therewasascene]

That gretsch call was impressive. I’ll give Sammy G a break because he really played the genre to which each guitar was suited, making it easier for Sean. But still that Gretsch call.. 👌🏼

"smells like Tim Horton's and Alanis Morissette" this guy is hilarious. my favorite guest.

[@zakharshteynberg8905]

Great to see the collaboration with Sean Daniel, you guys are great teachers!

[@breearbor4275]

It's easier to do with the acoustics than the electrics. Two electric guitars with similar style pickups through the same rig are gonna sound pretty similar, the difference is more in the playability imo. But two acoustics will always sound worlds apart, you can hear the difference in wood and construction clearly

[@ericmills9839]

I agree but body type makes a big difference and the scale length. I’ve got a warmoth tele I made with humbuckers and a 335, they sound really different. 335 is warmer, tele is sharper.

[@arthence]

@@ericmills9839 dude body type doesn't do anything at all.

[@ericmills9839]

@@arthence That's your opinion and that's fine. I've got a solid, semi, and hollow and there is a significant difference between the 3 for me. Certainly descending on sustain in that order. Depends on your setup too. The differences between semi and solid would melt away if you play with a lot of distortion but good luck with feedback on the hollow.

[@igotcasmell7263]

13:56 In fact, some people can associate a color with a sound.

The guy gave it away when he said “you wanna hear the Gibson?” But still an excellent video!

[@joeblankenship377]

Here's how this would go with my guitars: guitar 1: that's the Strat! guitar 2: that's the Alvarez acoustic! then the video would be over.

[@teopeno]

My Epiphone Allen Woody Rumblekat lives in its case, so when I pull it out and play it, it has that sweet smell of the case. My son's Epiphone SG case smells same and when I handed him the bass and said "sniff" he said "smells like an Epiphone!" And some of them smell old because of poor treatment by previous owner, or being acoustic so interior wood isn't coated or glue smell is more noticeable... So, yeah, sometimes sniff test is valid.

[@UncleSasquatch]

Sneeze was the best part of the video. Thank you for leaving that in 😂

[@stefankrause5138]

it's way easier to tell by the smell of an accoustic as by the sound of an electric ;)

I'm only half way through the video, but "no audible smell" is already in my everyday vernacular.

[@jburdsinfuse]

A dry signal into a Fender clean amp and I can identify most of the common "types." Any sort of extras via pedals, and it's a total crapshoot. FWIW, I can make my Tele sound like ANYTHING with an HX Stomp or any variety of weird EHX pedals...including an organ or a lawnmower.

[@kiroshihariyama7192]

I mean if you think the reverse flying V is so bad...would you be down to give it to me? Also, maybe that guy was so good at guessing because the headstock was visible from the gaps in the mask around the nose.

[@stunt-]

This could be a cool series, that is as long as it’s legitimate blindfolded guessing.

[@colesanlo3127]

Personal theory I think the bridge is a good indicator. The strings ring out and sustain differently obviously not so big anyone would notice but it might.

[@natespurgeon]

“Its the martin or the gibson” “ do you want me to play the gibson, and then you tell me which one it is?” Lmao!! 5:18

[@xx_HI_xx7]

For electric it's much harder. It's easier to hear differences between woods in acoustic guitars generally since the wood actually matters.

[@andym2612]

Smelling is cheating. If somebody blind folded me and let me smell my Les Paul I would definitely know what is was. Same with my Fender Jaguar. These two guitars have smells that none of my other guitar have. Might from their cases but none the less.

[@scootinand]

SamuraiJenny probably knew it was brown because she probably hears him playing a specific way on guitars like that one and associates it with those guitars. Which is something I think many players do. If you hand someone a Frankenstrat, they're going to be inclined to play a different way than if you hand them a Gibson 125 or whatever that big boxy boy was. With the exception being Phoebe Bridgers and her Warlock, because she's cool and does what she wants.

[@captainteatop2609]

It was so fun to close my eyes and play along

[@macsarcule]

Samurai Jenny rocks. More of her i say.

[@nocturnal101ravenous6]

Makes perfect sense actually you both know too much and overthink it, She is used to Sammy playing and seeing specific guitars in his hands while he is playing, she most likely seen that guitar in his hands while he played it and remembered how it sounds versus his others, her correlation was the color, and she either had a very favorable reaction or very negative one to the playing and it sticks out more because of it in her mind, so to an outsider she was easily able to make the correlation, it could have come down to his play style with that specific guitar she remembered as well. Its funny but GFs I have played for actually remotely guess what I am playing when they hear me from different rooms, its almost a game to them, I have 3 strats and they can guess what one I'm playing rather accurately, they just know the color as well and know its a strat, ironically the only real thing they mess up on is my Richie Kotzen tele and my single cut 594 PRSs, those they cannot distinguish which is weird to me because of how radically different they are.

[@brandongullion6353]

"do you want me to play the Gibson and then you tell me which one it is?" literally told him the other one was the Gibson and he guessed right with the Martin lmao. Kudos for getting it right that it was the Martin on the first try, though!
