Watching at 0.25x speed to get more of Glenn 😏

[@aqlord]

frrr wish there was a 0.01 option 😫😫😫😫😫

[@jasonbone5121]

I just tried 0.25x and it's drunk Glenn! Hilarious.

[@bigkidband911]

Over 36 hours to watch this video!... now that's a real fan 😂

[@mannyfragoza9652]

the jokes are better at normal speed

[@balazsdusek]

there are some now

[@jhiggins95]

I know someone worked in the Gibson factory for years. He’s the kind of guy who likes to take cheap guitars and get as much out of them as he can, so he’s a big fan of Squier and Epiphone. Whenever his time at Gibson comes up, he goes on about how they wanted everything set up to “vintage spec” which really comes down to mile-high action, and how Japan (Yes, not just a Japanese based company, but the nation of Japan) would send the guitars back with the headstocks sawn off as a fuck-you way of saying “Do it again but do it right this time.” I think it speaks volumes that someone who worked assembly at Gibson would still rather play a used, souped up Squier.

[@revnichols1]

This has been my philosophy for the past 20 years. Having worked in multiple music stores, from mom and pop to the big box stores… From St. Louis, Missouri, I am building my 10th squire parts caster Guitar. This one is a P bass. I have spent maybe 2 to 3k( over 20 years, some real pieces of shit peppered in their also) and have a collection of the best playing easy to maintain and sound amazing guitars I have ever played/owned in my life. This includes all the hi-end money grab collectors pieces the big guys put out, I was able to play while working at said stores (not own, could never afford.) Now in my life, I can afford the “high end stuff” and I get more excited about new epi/squire stuff, to mod, than anything the big guys put out. I swap necks, pickups, new bridges/tuners. I have learned more from my own experimentation than any dumb guitar rag could ever sell me on. Glen thank you for what you do smash the mythical bull shit and just play around learn to mod, and keep more money in your pocket. There has never been a better time in history to learn how to build, fix, repair even make your own instruments. Death to cork sniffer tone snobs!!!

[@jmiskinis]

UNREAL - I just noticed this video in my "daily feed", and when I saw the duration was 9 HOURS (and 7 minutes), you really piqued my interest, and the video stood out like "sore thumb" along with the thumbnail. I have been a bit busy and away from "the music scene" and I have not watched any musician-related videos for quite a while. I look forward very much to investigating this video soon, as it's been over a year since I commented on one of your videos, and you were kind enough at that moment to acknowledge and address the comment within the live stream that you were hosting, within a few seconds. I consider you a genius studio owner/operator, product reviewer, and content creator, with an unmatched level of knowledge and insight at all levels of spectrum as to what products are on the market, what they cost, how well they perform, and you truly have a unique presentation style to boot. I do not know if this video is actually 9 hours in duration, or if it was a "marketing move", but you earned a "thumbs up" already, just for the thumbnail image, video title, and duration. Thanks, and have a great weekend. _John_ (-,-)

[@SpectreSoundStudios]

Yes, it is NINE HOURS. :)

[@Ren21727]

I wish you add timestamps.... ffs

[@216trixie]

Yes!

[@alexnasla]

I already suggested that to him a few days ago but I guess he didn’t go for it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[@RobertWilson-no7iu]

Tough shit, watch all 9 hours!! 😂😂

[@sand8908]

this is so sad

[@DerekFrampton]

@@RobertWilson-no7iu YES

[@U99DrunkDinosaur]

Not my thing but the idea of 9-hour video called "Guitars that will Destroy America - THE MOVIE!" is fucking hilarious

[@Boosty_Boost]

We need it to become an actual movie starring Glen .. like im talking an actual movie with a plot where he comes across one after another axe that might destroy america haha 🤘 and ofc he needs to tame the power of the beasts

[@impossivel2006]

I want to say that I don't have 9 hours to waste watching Glenn, but who am I kidding, I have no life. Let's go.

[@impossivel2006]

One full view down. Let's go for two.

[@gelderlandproduction]

adding chapters might keep people looking at this style of content. Letting it roll for now. Thanks for this effort.

[@OutsiderSH]

Joining the "letting this play overnight to get more gear reviews" club! Absolutely epic Glenn! Keep up the great work, f**k you, and cheers from Sri Lanka!

[@Kevzilla100]

Today I learned that "The Eagle Has Landed" cooks at 2X speed. And Glenn's legato is borderline amazing!

[@danyeo]

You have to review a Vola. The decked Oz model is $1400 and it goes toe-to-toe with USA made Suhr or Anderson for less than half the price. Seriously, right out of the box mine was flawless.

[@blanko66]

Finally. I've waited for this video. I'll try to make it through the whole thing. After watching your video again about the S by Solar VB4.6C, I decided to order one for myself the last night. Your videos are pure gold for a beginner like me, who simply likes to own more than one guitar but wants to stay in the budget section. Thank you so much. Greetings from Germany and keep up your good work.

[@DustyKorpse]

Normally i fall asleep to pirate ships in a storm ⛈ will use this now and wake up with an extensive knowledge of guitars 🎸 😉🤣👍🏻🤘

[@Jamble187]

Initially when I saw that the video was nine hours I thought, "Fuck that, I'm not watching a nine hour video." But then I realized that I'd be watching Glenn's videos all day regardless so I might as well watch this one. Queue the Starship Troopers "I'm doing my part" meme.

[@WayCoolStudios]

I have to say I love the humor and the playing! Dude you can shred! I love the review and the 100% honesty!

[@kokobily]

it's sunday afternoon and depression has already kicked in - I m gonna let the vid play 4ever and go jam with a bassist - numbing the pain...

[@Dragon_rls]

Hope things get better for you. Rock on 🤘 🎸🎶

[@ScreaminT81]

Aaahhh a 9 hour Glenn movie/video. How long was the upload process for this? Holy shit

[@Shaylok]

A. Gibson is trying to do a lame job B. Gibson just doesn't give a damn C. Gibson is incompetent D. All of the above

[@scottreynolds6317]

Glenn! Just ordered your Northern Mauler!!! Can’t wait! Have the video playing in the other room. Just letting it play! 🎸🔥🎸🔥🎸

[@KingDracSiege]

It would be awesome if you did something like Linus tech tips’ secret shopper series. I know you have done secret shopper stuff before, but Linus does 6 of the biggest brands every year and simulates a broken piece to go through customer service with each brand. I think if this channel turned that concept into getting 6 entry level guitars from big brands it would be awesome

[@Burnt_Gerbil]

Alright…. Who’s going to watch this in one sitting? 😂

[@Krullmatic]

9 hours of Fricker? The Video That Destroyed The Internet!😂

[@Onemoretake01]

Honestly Glenn, i like this idea. It will take me a few days to watch, but it will be done

[@DraigGalon]

Just bought 3 knock off guitars from China. NJ mockingbird (luv it), so I bought 2 more. An extreme warlock and a BVi V. Can't wait to check them out. Yeah, had to pleck the frets, but they weren't sharp, and played right out of the styro/ box. Maybe you could do a review on them. The BVi was the most expensive, under $350 USD. 🤘😈

[@TheIronOutsider]

Only 9 Hours? I would have watched double that. Here we go

[@PPNStudio]

OVER 9 hours Glenn!! Insane. We like insane. I also see you gave up on adding all the chapters, that's funny.

[@Tyson-u3m]

I love this channel. I learn a tremendous amount about myths I've been told my entire life. Tone woods, pickups, Guitar quality, etc. Please keep the knowledge, BACKED BY PROOF, coming! Cheers from Omaha Nebraska!

[@JoeStuffzAlt]

One trick people might be able to do to skirt mute detection (no idea if KZbin does it): there's amplification plugins. You can set them to 0%. One thing you can do is not treat this as video, but like a radio

[@darrenvanfrankensteinofficial]

Hey Glen! I did as you asked, I watched half of the video, of which I had already seen 😁, and had to leave and let the video continue to run. I hope this helps you out. I'd only do this for you and Henning 😃! Rock on 👏👍🤘🤘

[@MortalityDave]

Will let a device play it non stop for as long as I can. Support is support. Good work my friend.

[@bassplayer137]

If this is how the algorithm gets you more views and revenue, i'll happily play this movie on the background and refresh and play it all again when it's done!

[@danipierre9018]

It’s 1 am and I’ll let it play while I sleep. I want this channel to do good

[@dodgernorth2500]

I’m happy this is 9 hours idk how anyone could be mad. I always watch and rewatch every smg video and now I have this huge video to just sit through and watch it’s fucking awesome thank you Glenn.

[@Rebar77_real]

Anyone else love how Glenn's playing gets better and better? Fucking inspiring man.

[@TheCSteve]

Glenn i recorded today with micrphones, because I was thinking wwhat you where saying in video. That the sound is not good with line out or USB? I got to say this was a huge difference, thank you . I sounded for the first time professional on a guitar when i record it by my self. 😃 From now I only record with microphones

[@Cbrmansc77]

Hey glen, killer video. Like many others we just played this video while working or working out and it was was great. One big qestion that would love to ask you and the community is before we spend any money on speakers, mics, pickups, and endless crap. You should spend a good day learning to work with your EQ on your amp. I have a Mark V and i was about to blow over $1000 on modifacations and additions to my rig (im waiting for you to call me an idiot) when i just started to move the knobs up and down taking away and adding sound. Shouldnt this be the case what you should do first? I hope this question gets answered on your channel and my best wishes and support!

[@stiffmeister0hYeah]

Judas Priest Screaming for Vengeance= hand me down cassette age 11 in 1982. FIRST rock music exposure. Also loving that LTD violet, red Solar V1 (18hr 17 min mark) and Vicious :O Ola's got me at that chop shop Blitz "The body is sent to a double secret location where it is specially electrocuted by an expert with more than 10,000 volts (do not try at home)."

[@RDMANGLEYT]

Great video. Can you look at the new budget LTD ESP models thag just released? The EC-200DX FM, M-200DX, and TE-200DX.

[@Necromatehun]

XD You crazy sonova... you actually did it xD

[@janvirtanen6199]

9 hours? Sorry Glenn, that's too much for my ADHD brain. But I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your efforts and work. You helped me a lot, especially through tough times in my musician life and personal life. And I know, I can click anywhere. I can let it run on mute and in the background. If I can help, I will. Greetings from Northern Germany Your long-time follower Jan :)

[@MajorDook1]

Imagine watching over 9 hours of Glen talking... that's gotta be a fate worse than hell.

[@_____NICK_____]

Hey big fan and love it when you stick it to the whiners who complain about everything. Idea for comparison video: take your soldano amp and play through your Harley Benton cab with 212 vintage celestions. Then compare it to your peavy 6505 played through your best and most expensive cab, use same guitar and no computer mixing to help. Who wins. Rock on brother. If they is a different try to even it out with boss EQ pedal 7 band.

[@gabrieltodd3430]

I love explorers and Vs because they make a statement. I was worried about how a local band was gonna sound live until i saw them bust out explorers and Vs. I knew they were gonna kick ass, and they did. They send the message you want.

[@SearchingForTone]

Doing it right now, and it’s fun to watch again

[@THEJOESHOW999]

Howdy Glenn, first time commenting, but have been watching for a very long time. Was wondering, since you like V's so much, which V has been your favorite so far? I had an ltd ninja 600 and a schecter atx V, but im trying to find one to replace those beauties. Thanks from Arron in Louisiana!

[@RandomeGuy872]

Having watched pretty much all of these before, but wanting to support the channel, I'm just going to mute this and let it play, probably give it another playthrough tonight. Keep up the good work Glenn!!

[@SpectreSoundStudios]

Ty!!

[@liamguitars]

Tried to fall asleep with it on but glen is too hard to ignore , I'll put this on in my shop and when its over i will know i have 53 minutes to clean shop and head home

[@lka1988]

I love the chapter labeling. So creative, so inspired! Love it. Good work over the years, and fuck you Glenn!

[@guntarss3165]

PRS (USA) out of box ready to play, no boring set up procedure needed :D

[@KingDracSiege]

I am your most devoted fedayin, Glenn. I will watch every second of this video.

[@Pondo1221]

I'm going on vacation. Going to leave this playing on loop until Monday morning.

[@j_obaymaac2886]

when will the directors cut of this be out?

[@JSXSProductions]

The Spiffing Brit technique. Nice.

[@CakedNinja]

Alright Glenn. Ive seen all these as they came out. Letting this play over night. ✌️

[@SpectreSoundStudios]

Ty,

[@zacharyberthiaume1873]

Glen!!! Can you add some time stamps in the description or a pinned comment? Helps a lot with long form content.

[@tannerbarsness9992]

Having this on in the background for my workouts is great.

[@Lilrockerdude13]

Watching the movie now and through the weekend cause 1 I loved seeing quite a few of these reviews. 2: SMG the first movie gotta support channel any way I can 3: My niece has shown interest in the Axe and might be a kickass Christmas present from us

[@DerekFrampton]

15 min. left! STILL Haven't refreshed, and when I made this comment, still only 923 likes, and 10,496 views. It'll be cool to see what that updates to when I'm done watching. COOL SHIT GLENN!

[@Lycanthropy54or]

I’m going to try my best to go all 9 hours but if not I will come back and come back to where I left off. Keep up the great content.

[@gradiuzg8437]

It was a Mission Glenn, But I finally finished this Mammoth video.....

[@nzsteve]

Nice trailer, when does the actual movie come out? 🤣🤣

[@sRichterMusic]

9 hours ??? HAHA Glenn, you really took it the long way here

[@Scorchedorb50]

Glenn, you’re the best.

[@angryangel1100]

One mega cut you need is all the videos involving choosing/swapping speakers.

[@carminguerra1305]

😍 me staring at your Neve console!

[@giancarlomartinez5630]

KZbin likes autoplaying long videos because it assumes the people they're autoplaying them to have fallen asleep.

[@janmokracki]

Thursday I'm going to Metallica's concert and returning on Monday. Guess what is going to be playing in the loop the whole time on all of my devices that stay here. By the way, Glenn your content is amazing, even if it kind of destroyed my idea what is important regarding the tone. I hope one day I'll be able to visit Canada and shake your hand. Love man!

[@UrzaTron707]

So Glenn is thinking Ill be watching a 9 hours videos of him ranting about guitars?? -Hell yes!

[@TranscendentBen]

The epitome of that $2,800 Gibson and why it never had a setup is epitomized in a later (the third?) review at 25:38 - the "target market" will never notice it's unplayable.

[@cameronstilliens7163]

Love this!!! Would love to see more! 🔥🤘👍

[@perumetal]

I want links to the guitars, thank you Glennnn!!! You saved me so much so far

[@Dragon_rls]

Video completed in its entirety 👍👍👍

[@Keiko_Kitsune]

Cant say I'd sit through the whole thing, but ive been looking for a new guitar, and I know that your objective is to save us money, so this will give me some great ideas for a new purchase!

[@StoneXue]

I am 6:16 into this (took a 3 hour nap lol) and what I can tell you Glenn is, YOU DID IT WRONG! LOL. Actually enjoying this video. I took a nap through part of it, doing some things around the house but I keep coming back when I hear something I dont remember the video from.

[@Boosty_Boost]

HAHAHAHA THE TIMESTAMPS LMAO 🤣🤣 GLEN

[@terrylumpkin4219]

Awesome show🎸🎸 my Schecter omen six and triad Guitar is better than the Gibson

[@sledge80ci]

9 hours long? Will you be also taste testing tubes? 12BX7’s are in season right now, though I’m not certain they’ll work in a guitar amp but are tasty in a chefs salad with a vinaigrette. EL89’s are also in season, mix them in oatmeal……. 😋🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻 Still love your channel Glenn and appreciate these videos with no bullshit.

[@nicolasreveco3748]

glenn telling us "if you fall asleep it's ok, just let it run" like we're not gonna get jumpscared in the middle of the night by a "F U C K Y O U G I B S O N "

[@smeemusic]

Okay I know watching it through is the best thing I could possibly do to help this video but Glenn, I’m sorry bro. I’m not gonna make it through this. Maybe I’ll play it on my laptop tonight while I sleep. But also I’m not above dropping a like and comment. Also Ive already watched all of your guitar reviews in their entirety.

[@onuryuksekol]

That's why longer videos are popular. If you open KZbin for sleeping youtube tends to play next video a longer one. So these kind of videos are for sleeping audiences. Longer watch time, more acquisition, more money etc etc

[@crave809]

I love these reviews this is awesome I am totally falling asleep to this over the few nights 😅

[@Halfaloaf599]

I am looking forward to this! Me loves long-form content!!!

[@juanvaldez4043]

Man, I don’t even slow down when walking by the Gibson’s at my local shop

[@aplanebagel]

NEAT ! I can't watch it whole right now but will be watching it while I animate cartoons this week.

[@isaknir333]

At 22.23 cest I’m 6 hours in and I’m still standing.

[@Maykholiv]

Let the binging begin!

[@Grouuumpf]

Doing my part letting this play during the night You owe us a debrief on what it did to your stats!

[@floyd6545]

I'll try to watch it, but I'll have to do it a little at a time. 9 hours? Thats a long video, but I'm gonna give it hell and get through it! I agree with you on the setup of the Gibson V (1stguitar). For that kind of money they should hand deliver it by a tech and set up to your liking right in front of you. No way I'd give that much for it.

[@abosaur]

Aloha Glenn! Maybe your pinch harmonics problem is a combination of technique and scale length. I’m almost unable to do those on anything other than a 24.75 scale length. You should check that!

[@djsusan00]

Remember guys, if you have a chromecast thats plugged into the wall, you can help out by casting the video. Even if the tv is off it will still play.

[@-whiskey-4134]

I’ve had the Demon 7 for about 6 years now, and I swear the only time I ever have to tune it is when I change the strings lol okay, maybe a bit of an exaggeration, but it holds tuning better than any instrument I’ve ever owned. Got mine on sale for around $425.

[@Louis-d3g]

Damn it glen fighting shorts one 9 hour video at a time awesome

[@radron14]

Glen, Gibson made 2 runs of Explorer head stocks with Les Paul body. You can see it on the Trology guitar show. I would love the have a Gibson US1 made in the late 80’s looks just like Jackson fender body guitars, 3 toggle switches for each pick up’s. Screams 80’s and has the holy grail Gibson car dealership raised Gibson logo.🙄

[@robertgallagher2226]

LOL! left it playing...off to do groceries.

[@j.dmetalhead7517]

9 hours? Gordon Bennett!!! I will watch it but having seen most of these I WILL be skipping forwards.

[@tozjesoir7190]

already a 8.6 in IMDb. congratulations glenn

[@SpectreSoundStudios]

That’s way better than “The Acolyte “. :)

[@seancarney177]

I would love to see Viewers Comments lengthened to a cool half hour!

[@ObnoxiusBrat]

KZbin likes very long videos because they can demonetise a lot of someones hard work at once

[@qwikpump]

Just Let it Play in the Background and be Astrally Projected across the river to South Detroit 🎆🇨🇦

[@jordanjackson6151]

Hell yeah. My inner Ibanez is throbbing just from the title.

[@releasethekitties4337]

Now my favorite is the Explorer type solar...i fucking love those solar guitars i cant wait to get one
