History of Guitar... I Guess (Chapter 1)

[@pedrodunn101]

Are these videos getting more surreal? Yes? Fantastic! Looking forward to a dual magnet, double level Alumitone build ..... maybe? Love your content man. Best wishes from the Uk 🇬🇧👍🏻🤪

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you so much Pedro. I guess this one is quite strange indeed. I sat on most of this info and video for a long while. I didnt know how it would go over. Thank you for the suggestion I will put it in my notes and if/when I get around to the video I will give you a shout-out. Thanks again for the kind words and support. Cheers from the southern US.

That was a whirlwind of guitar history goodness. Good one Bud.

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you so much Glenn. I didn't really know how this one would go over its quite a departure from the normal content.

[@quondammechanic]

Best Clementine video yet. Go easy on the turbo though; it was good info!

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you so much space between spaces. I had originally thought I was going to do the whole thing in 1 video, that's the reason for the twin turbo. I quickly realized that was not going to be the right idea. way too much info in the history of guitar for a single video. Thanks again.

[@christopherguzzi1316]

Do it!!!

[@andrewgarcia3136]

i love your sense of humor, man. if you keep making videos, I will be here to watch and enjoy. be well, brother.

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to write such a kind and supportive comment Andrew. I will be getting back to a normal upload schedule soon.

[@roblegrange473]

Cant wait for chapter 2...👍💩💗

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you for watching and taking the time to write a comment Rob. I didnt know how this one would go over with the audience and I had sat on most of this video and info for a long time. I see now that chapter 2 and 3 and so on must be made. Thanks again.

[@cockysonuvaB]

I'm still waiting for NEXT TIME

[@heavymetalATC]

maybe someday bro maybe???

[@waynemasters8673]

Thanks, I don't understand why Paul put up with being the bass player as he auditioned playing Rock Island Line for John. Thanks for the piano wire idea. I may just use thin copper wire here with the neodymium magnets superglued on...for the next day or 2. Way back when, after mistakenly smashing a chick's acoustic guitar to bits against a steel support beam in a basement while demonstrating a Pete Townsend windmill finale to her.....I came across a right handed lead guitar but I am left handed. I had 3 thin strings all tuned to the same note, 2 missing strings and its bass string with feedback and it sounded amazing as I slapped it against the speaker box. The pickup went through the mic input of a reel to reel tape recorder and the output from the playback head went into the speaker box with slight delay. People couldn't tell if I knew guitar or not as The Mothers of Invention were popular at the time. But now that we know each other, why don't we collaborate on a song? I'm an award winning singer in my youth and I have a 4 track tape recorder here so why don't I give it a try and post it on KZbin and you can add the guitars? Dont turn down a 140 yr old man who only looks half his age. I'm fragile.

[@heavymetalATC]

Hell Wayne I'd be down to collaborate for sure I tried the real music thing for a while and even started getting traction but I kinda just scaled back and gave it up but I still have connections in the industry. If we can make a decent song I can probably get it put on an internet radio station. I can also register it legitimately I signed with BMI back then and I'm still under contract for a few years. Short answer though... Yes I'd love to. I'm currently working with a southern rock rap kinda guy in the background he wanted me to sing and rap on it but I think I'm just going to make the music. I used to do all kinds of stuff on my albums as I just love music it might have rap rock country pop heavymetal and electronic music all on 1 CD.

[@Pizza_Master]

Nice. 😎

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you Pizza Master. I'm so glad you guys seem to like this out of the ordinary content. I didn't know how it would go over.

[@Pizza_Master]

@@heavymetalATC interesting and funny bro. All good. I learned something at 5am today. 😎🍕

[@waynemasters8673]

You'll be thrilled to know that in the traditional vane, I wrote down the lyrics last night in one long sitting on scraps of paper. It will not disappoint. Sure it has to be rewritten and condensed. I'll only discuss it with you in a personal video I guess. It's that good an idea.

[@heavymetalATC]

That is awesome Wayne and its up to you how we do the whole thing you can contact me at my email. [e-mail]

[@waynemasters8673]

Excellent video as usual. I have a Peavey bass but I dont play it or know how to play it. To honour you I called the local guitar studio to buy 2 lead guitar strings for it. He responded what is a lead guitar and then I said that guitar withthe thin strings and he said ah, the strings are too short for your bass. So I said I will measure it but he said I dontknow how long these thin strings are. I said I'll Gokgle it then. Till then. Thanks again kind friend.

[@heavymetalATC]

You are welcome and thank you Wayne. I love to hear that you are experimenting and moving forward on your musical journey. If that wont work maybe try to find a guy who repairs pianos and see if he has some of the old high strings. Paul McCartney turned his English made solid 7 guitar into a bass with piano wire back in the day I'm sure the opposite can be done they should be plenty long?

[@AlexSMarie]

This was awesome. You also gave a good laugh too 🤣🤣

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you so much Alex. I didnt know how this one would go over I had been sitting on much of the info and video for ages. I am so glad you guys like it. Thanks again.

[@Snarfelle]

So on the next video with clementine.... Clementine installs a turbo on a guitar 😂😂😂

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you for watching and awesome comment Snarf. Who knows what I may do I surely dont. Something musical could be done with a turbo though its got to be possible.

[@MetricNotStandard]

You’re basically the Ken Burns of KZbin.

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you so much DM. I wouldn't call this the "civil war" of guitar docs but That is an amazing complement so I will have to take it and repeat it to people on the street and in restaurants... I said NO OLIVES B!$%H! DO YOU KNOW IVE BEEN CALLED THE KEN BURNS OF KZbin? (throws calzone in her face). Now take this twenty and go clean yourself up LOL hahaha!

[@MaxBrix]

This is for the algorithm.

[@guitargrader9094]

I just got schooled in a guitar lessons 😆

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you bro, I didnt know how this one would go over. I been sitting on most of this info and video for a long time but the feedback has been great, so it looks like the rest of the chapter will have to become an eventuality.

[@barbarianblood2316]

This rules!!! You kinda sound like a cross between Mitch Hedberg and Bruce from Family Guy on this one!!! I can’t express properly how cool your channel is. Peace ✌️

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you so much Barbarian. You know this is not the first or 3rd time I have been told I sound like Mitch Hedberg. LOL Obviously I was playing a part in this video as I do with my KZbin announcer guy voice I use in normal videos but apparently the cadence and tone of my normal speaking voice in real life reminds people of Mitch Hedburg? I am so glad you enjoy the channel all you guys are changing my life this HeavyMetalATC thing is really becoming the real deal. Thank you.

[@barbarianblood2316]

@@heavymetalATC I started building guitars and such during a rough time in my life. I found your channel about a year after I started. And damn it fit me like a glove. Thanks for the show and it’s content. Your channel along with a select few of others has not only entertained and taught me but also saved my sanity. A lil bit of powerful pot too lol. Thanks for everything Homeboy. One day I wanna show ya some pics of my oak guitars I’ve been building. Announcer voice or regular, fantastic job my friend, plz keep em coming and thanks again✌️

[@waynemasters8673]

Dream of the day when they bury the last guitar. I'm not depressed or trying to pick up someone else's girlfriend so I saw no reason to fiddle with my fingers on centuries old devices.

[@heavymetalATC]

As always thank you for watching and taking the time to comment Wayne. I do however see a discrepancy in your comment LOL You play the bass guitar am I correct? If you think about it the bass guitar is basically just the modern version of a cello or contra-bass viola is it not? HAHAHA! but really Wayne thank you for all the support and interaction on this channel.

[@peteytwofinger]

come for the docu stay for the comedy ?

[@heavymetalATC]

Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment Petey. I don't really know, maybe stay for the info and ignore the annoyance? I have been sitting on most of this info and video for a long time. I didn't really know how it would go over. After seeing the response looks like there will be a part 2 and so on. Thanks again brother.

[@rodblomley8517]

I had it all wrong, guess I is a salty mafa

[@heavymetalATC]

Hahaha Nah Rod I think if that were the case you would be blasting me with fire in this comment and really I have no problem with that. I welcome the hate as well as the encouragement. In fact if someone felt the need to write a hateful comment on every video I put out and click the thumbs down that would be fantastic! It would bring the CPM of the video and channel up a few cents every time they did it and eventually I would use the pennies generated by that hate to go buy a Calzone and I would eat it and be powered by hate while being happy. LOL Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to leave nice comments Rod. I am unfortunately human deep down in there somewhere and I really do appreciate it.

[@rodblomley8517]

@@heavymetalATC I can only think that anyone giving you a thumbs down would only be a person who is trying to hide the valuable info that you gave us! And why would they do that? To take advantage of our naivete and sell us sh*t that we dont really need( did I say stewmac) or the like! You clearly show that using items that are considered a no go work, and work very well. This is not what people who would sell us needless costly tools and devices want you to get into our hands. I hope we can generate enough income to keep you in calzones all day long! Really do love your channel

[@guitargrader9094]

I said of 😂

[@towmotornoises]

I hope you’re a history teacher

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to write a comment towmotor. Yeah, Im not a history teacher... I think I would get fired quickly for telling the true history... Today's lesson is The American Civil War was NOT about slavery. You see the North was full of factories, those are where they make things like farm tractors, now if you have a slave what do you not need children?... thats right... tractors. Abraham Lincoln said himself on Aug 22 1862: “If I could save the Union without freeing any slave, I would do it" LOL

[@ToolsAreToys]

Make more.

[@heavymetalATC]

Thanks again duly noted friend.

[@roycustomwork-rcw9027]

HAHAHA! WOW!

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you so much Dominic I'm glad you dig the style. I didn't know how this one would go over but I am pleasantly surprised by the responses.
