Homeskoolin’ Goes To Gruhns Volume 3

A BIG SINCERE WELCOME ANY AND ALL VIEWERS:
UNLESS of course you happen to be one of THOSE guys….
oh, you know the ones i mean…the ones that love to complain about not being able to hear every single word of dialogue perfectly clearly in a totally free video….after 50 years of working with power tools with no hearing protection.
I simply cannot deal with any more of the dumb ass “biggest guitar store in North America and they can’t afford a microphone?” comments
Please keep in mind that these are extremely loose casual conversations that are recorded with a simple iPhone….just a few dudes who have spent their entire lives in the old guitar racket sharing a few laughs, and a couple brews (courtesy of dear Wayne Baswell) and the occasional “hot take” on a particularly touchy subject
Starring:
Greg “Old World” Voros
Eric “Ebo” Borash
Corey Terrell
George Gruhn
Geoffrey from Atlanta
and a very special thanks to sweet Tosa from Atlanta for holding her arms up for over an hour straight filming this video. (Try that sometime folks…after 15 minutes it starts becoming a real problem)
Like all Homeskoolin’ products…this video is meant to be taken in good fun.
it is not meant to offend anyone…
please people, if any of the views expressed here-in don’t align with your own….please do not take it personally.
I am pretty sure you guys would rather see some raw unedited real shit rather than some smoothed out corporate PC bullshit….am i right?
Besides there is already enough people out there who hate me for providing 600 free guitar lessons.
Thanks for watching kids…please visit this amazing store if you ever get to Nashville…it is really something special.
George has been the king of the vintage guitar mountain since 1970.
Editor’s note:
I meant to say “tremotone”, not “frequensator” when I was referring to a few of Gibson’s questionable moves during the golden age.

Put this woman on the payroll! The camera work is a blanket solution to pretty much everything someone could complain about with the audio. She's smooth, attentive and has a great eye for space and framing. Five stars.

[@johnmossey]

Intro was like the intro to the sitcom Roseanne*... only without the poker playing and theme song

[@JustinVerlander35]

I got to meet Tom today at Gruhn’s and wanted to say thanks for taking a few minutes to say hi. He was kinda busy and had people around him so I didn’t expect much time or much of a conversation, so it was still cool. But I will say, Corey and Greg are two of the most outstanding people I have ever met. I drove 10 hours to go to Gruhns on a trip to Nashville and Greg spent 45 minutes just shooting the shit with me like we had been friends for 20 years. Corey was much the same. Just outstanding people. I even got to meet the legend himself, George Gruhn! Anyways, you’re probably not going to remember me from the 15 minutes I was up in the room with you today watching a turtle eat lettuce, but thanks for your time.

We love them and thank YOU for sharing!

[@VictorRochaGaming]

I watched the entire thing while working. So entertaining. Before the internet, guitar knowledge was part of a secret society. Thanks for sharing the knowledge, brother. Ah, man! Thanks for bringing out my dream guitar. The aged yellow binding is so damn sweet. Frampton Comes Alive was massive when I started playing (we're talking '76) That 3PU BB on the album cover was my ideal guitar. I was po' boy so it wasn't gonna happen but I could dream. It'll happen. I don't name my guitars. I refer to them by model or builder. LOL! @ TGP amp builders. Ugly guitars: Firebird X. Not crazy about the Tyler headstock. Thanks you for the reverse V. Fugly!! Best Looking guitars: Black Beauty w/gold hardware, Mary Kaye strat, The Gibson Firebird & Explorer. My Trussart tele is bad ass. James makes cool looking guitars.

[@tomcoryell]

The Tyler headstock! Arrrrgh!

Wonderful watch folks, Great seeing the living legend at the end too. What a fantastic place that exists within our guitar world.

[@grantenglish3896]

Hi Tom thanks for the great content and to all the others who contibute there great knowledge. I am a born an raised surfer from South Africa we refer to the surfboards we have as our quiver. Its been used from day one in the surf world. I agree it doesnt fit with guitars lol. I am always inspired to imporve my guitar skills after watching. Have learned so much from the repair guys and what makes a quality instrument. thanks again cheers Grant

[@frankierodriguez8661]

Tom Bukovac is THE MAN. period. Bringing this incredible stuff to my living room is just priceless. The lads from the shop are sensational, everybody really know their shit and I feel at home because I agree with a lot of things. Finally having no other than Mr G. bringing us advice and his vast wisdom, for many of us is something almost impossible. Tom, your personality, your laugh and your love for guitars and music, your hunger for life is I gift for me, a big one . Thanks a million man. Much love from West Spain!

"Seconds of Sensation" -- there's a name for a tune on your next album, courtesy of George LOL Thanks for the chat, y'all. Great video!

[@gtr1952]

Its a good day when we get to see and hear George for a bit. I think we're all here because we love guitars, and our Uncle Larry, so George is like out Pope! I'm 71, and I can relate well to some of the things he says. I'd love to spend some time with him some day. 8) Just a couple notes; Things I dislike? The word "perform". We never said that, it was always "we are going to play tonight". Not "We are going to perform tonight". Monkeys 'perform', players 'play'. LOL Ugly guitar; Mosrite, with all those goofy angles and pups mounted cockeyed. Sexiest guitar; Has to be a Strat, just the curves/carves/shapes! Thanks so much to everyone around the table!! That was very special, we really appreciate it!! 8) Peace --gary

Its all a totally wonderful blessing to get a little view into your life doing what you love, the thing that all the rest of us talentless mortals strive towards ..to .watch you practice your craft, share some of your sources of inspiration..seemingly impromptu arrangements that are absolutely gorgeous.. all of the above but for me personally a homeskoolin' episode is just a great chilled out haven safely insulated from the bullshit of life in general,thanks Lil Tommy from Ohio..love you man

Keeping my mouth shut which I would probably do if I was there lol!! You guys are awesome, keep the videos coming!!

[@jaygallamore562]

Love these Gruhn’s videos. I sincerely hope all the historical reference documents in that conference room have been scanned and that there is museum quality fire protection. It would be a shame to lose those originals if a fire or some other catastrophe would occur. Thanks Uncle Larry!!!!

If I ever get a pink guitar (maybe a pink 335), I will feel obligated to call it "Ken". Just sayin'... (Not that that would EVER happen!) LOL Or, maybe Luffgato Hearn. I have no idea who or what that is. I just heard it once and it got stuck in my brain. Sorry... What was the question again? LOL Hey Tom, I met the beautiful Emm Gryner last weekend. You played all the guitars on her awesome new album, "Business & Pleasure". She popped into the gig I was playing last Saturday. Nice girl and great album! Loved your work on it. Cheers & hello from Stratford, Ontario, Canada. I love these totally chilled conversations/visits with you all. Fun stuff and lots of informative bits too. Tanx. Keep 'em comin'!

I walk into a guitar shop in Peterbrough, Ontario, Canada to get strings. Just as I'm checking out I asked the two guys there if they ever watch Tom Bukovac. Both guys reply in unison Uncle Larry with that sound of love and appreciation. We reminisced for about 15 minutes and finished by taking note that there was one Shining Light that came out of this pandemic situation.

[@angryshoebox]

I love the kid-buying-a-guitar stories. I can relate. Although in my case I was 20, it was Summer 1988, at Guitar Center, and the salesman was probably my age or a year older. I had 300 bucks, and I walked out with a Kramer Aerostar ZX30H over a Squier Strat . In retrospect, I wish I'd gotten the Squier Strat, but the Kramer had **Select By EMG pickups**, and a bridge humbucker (ooh! ahh!, LOL).

[@stevenflint6864]

Tom that was a really enjoyable video. I don't like the L6S either. I remember Carlos Santana endorsed it in an ad in Guitar Player back in the '70's. I played a few. I think the first version had a maple neck. It was the loudest guitar too with a not particularly pleasing sounding or feel. Not aesthetically pleasing to look at either. Every box was left unchecked with that model. Tom you ask great questions too. Great hang out. It felt like I was at the table with you guys.

[@lupcokotevski2907]

Pro level camera work. No quivering. That was a tremendously enjoyable chat. Jimi's Woodstock strat, but Frank Gambale's Trini Lopez custom he plays on Magritte is Batman sexy cool.

[@alexlightningboyedwards5350]

When I went to Gruhn's I was so overwhelmed and nervous that I was kind of star struck if that makes sense. To see so many amazing instruments was great. The staff was extremely nice and made me feel very comfortable. I guess I was expecting the "Guitar Center" Sales approach where they only wanted you to look, but not at Gruhn's. Next time I will plan to spend some real time there. Great conversations Ya'll, thanks!

[@timparker4228]

Greg is just a treat every time he's on. We have such similar views on life I just find myself nodding through every video he's appears in.

[@charlescostarella]

Really enjoyed the insights and discussion, especially the "pet peeves" part. I have to confess: "My name is Chuck and I have named some guitars." But in all fairness, that was a thing for a long time and I haven't named all of them and the only alternative when I first started was Pete Townsend and those butt-ugly numbers "1" and "2" that he would stick onto his Pauls. Did he think he was going to forget which was which? Finally, I think George and you (Tom) are talking about 2 different "ugliest" guitars. I don't recall the L6-S having any binding anywhere. I think he might have meant the L5-S? The only famous player I remember playing that one was Pat Martino for a while. Love the channel. Peace.

OK, I do agree the 3 pup Black LP Custom is maybe one of the coolest guitars ever made. I’ve wanted one since I bought Frampton Comes Alive in junior high, from the Woolworths in my home town mall! Ugliest electric guitar ever made is anything from BC Rich. I freaking hate all that Vikings and Warlocks looking shit. Best looking electric, I’ve gotta say Les Paul, but the Tele is right behind it. Also agree the Rick Bass is amazing.

[@brachashighhopeshomestead226]

I let Gruhns sell my Tom Holmes Lenny Breau model ser. no. 02. They sold it quickly and for a fair price.

[@tjsmith3741]

In the 70’s I worked for a sheet music distributor in NY. We had all of the Sam Ash stores and every other music and record store in the Northeast. I would visit stores and stock them from a step van. Everything from sheet music to method books and popular folios. I came across a lot of interesting people. All of the record stores are gone. I wonder how many of the small indie music stores still remain. A different time indeed 😎!!

[@dennisrichards7845]

In 1983 I bought the same “The Strat” in lake placid blue. It was the week I got married and my wife had no idea what she was she was signing up for. Forty years later while I’m watching this KZbin we’re in a uhaul van hauling my gear from Arizona to Texas. She’s never complained once about my gear habit! Years later when I sold the “The Strat” my youngest daughter told me it was like selling her brother since the guitar was older than she was. 😊

[@James_Haskin]

I'd be willing to bet money that the "quiver" thing @22:30 comes from a, now defunct, forum called silverfish longboarding. Skaters would amass different decks for different kinds of rides. That's where I was introduced to the phrase as a sort of replacement for "bag of tricks".

[@salcasabianca]

Was it Gary from the Music Stop ? On Northern Blvd.

[@Mpcoluv]

A “The Strat” was a good guitar. They generally weighed a ton though. In 1986 I visited Gruhns when it was next to adult works. I was looking for a reissue Korina V. George showed me pic of some wild cat that looked like an Ocelot that was in his back yard. George also told me the impact Bloomfield had. He also wanted me to Play this Guild Nightbird GG that he had designed. The Guild was awesome but I felt it was too expensive for the time. I bought an 82 Korina V for 600 bucks. This week I finally bought the ‘86 Nightbird GG after 37 years.

I was in Gruhn’s last week while on tour. I was disappointed in only one floor of guitars, and nothing very special in the bunch. What did I miss? Was there a secret password to see the real collection? I guess I expected more. Then I went to Rumble Seat & Carter’s and was blown away at the amount and selection of cool guitars on display. Other highlights were The Nashville Jam Co. & seeing Blackbird.

[@charlesbolton8471]

There is a second floor display area with the Top Tier items. I’ve never been up there myself, and I’ve even heard the staff tell people who have admitted to being from out of town that all the inventory is on the main floor. Carter Vintage is the exact opposite. It’s an amazing place, and they will let you play anything you want. That’s the reason why I’ve spent over $10,000 at Carter Vintage in the last six years and not a dime at Gruhn’s.

I'm 63...I grew up playing & the vibe is real with old guitars. My favorite was a 50's maple neck Strat in Sherwood green that we thought was a worn out piece of shit that had wear on its maple neck & oxidised vibrato. My older brother traded a '63 Tele Custom with one ding on it & that Strat for a nice early 70's black Custom for both. At the time the deal was fair but it was at the height of the Led Zeppelin era and everybody needed a Paul. Timing is everything in the vintage guitar business, but I get sick thinking about that trade when you look at the market today
