Let's take a moment to pause and reflect on how much of a genius/pioneer Lee is. He has exponentially grown his family business into an international brand.

[@michaelangeloh.5383]

That's probably by lack of choice, too. But he pulled it off.

[@adrianh6394]

One of my favorite captain jokes is when they were demoing an Amp with variable wattage and he said something like this: "you can dial this down to half power for when you're in the bedroom, but of course I never go half power in the bedroom"

The way I describe Andertons TV is "it's Top Gear for guitars" - lots of fun and jokiness; anything but just a dry 'and it does this... And it has this..'. Its entertaining to watch even if you're not serious about guitars

[@TraneFrancks]

"It's the loudest guitar amp .......... In the world." 🤣

[@creationinspired200]

Absolutely ive been wondering why id never seen a guitar show on tv it seems like itd have tons of millions of viewers

[@rockerseven]

They've been called the Top Gear of guitars by quite a lot. What I love about the videos, especially the Chappers and Captain ones, is that while they're definitely just meant for fun on the surface, and they can definitely be enjoyed for that, they do still teach you about products and give great tips as well.

[@jmcsquared18]

Another thing that made this channel: the video editing.

[@robdownes5159]

Definitely, the humour that is added (for example the miku sound in this video) is great, it stops them becoming too dry. The guys working behind the scenes really show how much they must enjoy the whole thing too

[@bryancorrigan5663]

I’ve been watching for about 3 years and it is the rapport between chapters and the captain plus the humor that makes this a great channel . Keep making videos and having fun while you make them .

For no other reason than you two guys cracked me up watching your videos! Then watching Chappers videos, then Rabea's, etc., etc. you guys have become distant, somewhat embarrassing family!

I came across your videos doin product research, helped me pick out an amp. I watched every video of yours I could find. Fast forward 2 years I am playing in 2 bands again and I am playing an ML-3 Modern and ML-2 Classic. Cheers guys it’s been quite a ride for me.

There is no one else I would watch 38 minutes of chit chat. Ya'lls videos are what first introduced me to the wide world of electric guitars. My favorite video remains the "How to gig under 500."

I would love to see more vids like that.

List of (maybe) some good ideas: - Take a look a different guitar mods (put most amount of mods into a guitar to see what sounds best) - Choosing a Rig That Your Mate will love, but with stuff that he might not own/considered - (April Fools?) Crossovers like Peter and Rob doing 'Sound like' or Bea and Lee reviewing stuff. Or change places with 'That Pedal Show' or something - (April Fools?) Is it possible to profile a Miku? - Andertons 'Look like', or how is the best way to fake a Marshall stack or tips to relic your guitar, best leather clothes to match your favorite hair metal band - The Captain Helps People Buy a Rig, with some random customers - Captains meets ... and makes his guest uncomfortable by make them play with unusual setups - Find out what is what with different plectrum materials - You cannot have your amp around, what is the way to get your sound with whatever amp you can get: Clean channel + pedals, Fx loop + pedals, fx loop + preamp pedals, multi effects? - Make Chap, Lee, Bea, Pete learn the same solo, than make them play with same gear over the same backing track and see how the equipment reacts do the player. Maybe record the same thing with different amps and guitars - Deeper dive into Fishman Fluence Pickups - Does roasted necks really work? Let's find out by putting this guitar into the fridge. - Rob once said something about a Gibson that really inspires him to write music. Inspiring gear! Whatever puts a big smile on your face Whatever you do, never give up being stupid =D

[@larrimos]

luciano all excellent suggestions! You should work for Andertons!

[@MrDblStop]

Good suggestions! Especially like the 'same solo' idea. And I think they should combine two of your suggestions into 'The Captain makes a random customer uncomfortable helping them buy a rig'. I can answer the roasted necks question as I just had to tell a mate that his new roasted maple neck was backbowed beyond saving and had to go back.

[@Knifeawatermelon]

About a year and a half ago, I was depressed and struggling to find meaning in my life. I liked music, and it helped a bit, but my only way to play music at the time was the trombone in school, which is still fun, but it wasn’t what I needed to fill the void. Since I was a lover of music, I followed a few music channels on KZbin. Then, one day, on my feed, KZbin recommended me a Chappers and the Captain video. I watched video after video all night. It got me hooked on wanting to play guitar 🎸. A few months later, I begged my parents for a guitar for Christmas. I finally got a guitar on Christmas Day, 2017 and started learning. I’m almost a year in now and I’ve made great progress. Playing guitar has brought an immense feeling of meaning and purpose into my life, and I never would have picked up the instrument if it weren’t for Rob Chapman and Lee Anderton. Words cannot express how grateful I am for you guys.

And who found Anderton's after looking up Steve Vai Bee Keeper video (His son posted a vid with his hives that I thought was cool) and happened to see Andertons channel in the sidebar I think the video I discovered first was "The Captain meets Paul Gilbert" (Who is another Player I like a lot). I want to say thanks for the informative vids. I am not able to get out as much as I like and channels like this help to sort thru a lot of fluff. And while I am in the U.S. I want to say that I definitely use Andertons vids as a shopping references. So any brands that make it in Andertons vids take note. Even if you do not or cannot shop Andertons, they do a lot of advertising thru this channel.

Absolutely, the only reason I even know who Andertons is, is these videos. It might not convert to sales directly but the brand awareness is huge. I am in Australia and I bought a Variax from you because I thought, "I wonder what deal they can do. I'll give them a shot". It worked out only slightly cheaper than I could have bought it here in Australia because of import duty but the guitar arrived in my hands within 10 days of ordering it and I've not had any problems with it so I'm well happy. Now our GST laws have changed so it doesn't work out quite so cost effective these days. Still watch your videos though.

Like, I can't even put into words how appreciative I am of the entire Anderton's staff with re- igniting my passion. I just wasn't practicing anymore, and had lost alot of the "drive" I had once possessed, so I decided to go on KZbin and try to get back into it. Then, I start seeing your videos, and I liked them so much because they seemed genuine, as well as understanding. Alot of fellow musicians running the local shops tend to be a bit condescending, regardless of the topic. Chappers and the captain began to seem like friends I'd known all my life, and I had realized that I was learning new techniques while being informed of gear simultaneously. With all of that said, I just wanted to say thank you. Congrats on being the number one store in the world! You all absolutely deserve it, and I wish the guys at my local music shop were half as cool as you. My name is Shawn, I'm 32 from Bristol, VA USA. Thank every last one of you so fu@#ing much!!!

The Miku pedal is one of the best videos you guys have ever made!

[@davidg1612]

I don't remember how long ago it was but the "arrow to the knee" episode is still the funniest you guys have done and first thing I think of when I think of this channel. Lots of fun times since but that's the one I always think back to.

This is a real spooky video!!! Captain didn't aged at all! Proof that he's a vampire!!!! 🤣

[@siryba]

The Chappers and The Captain vids along with the Andertons channel was my gateway into the world of KZbin back in the day. The chemistry that you two have along with the technical and musical knowledge you collectively possess, keeps me coming back time and time again. You are effectively mates I’ve never met, in a wonderland of musical toys. Along with Pete and the rest of the guys and girls at the channel, you make it a real pleasure to be a subscriber.

Now that the year is 2019, I just gotta say, "Happy 10th Anniversary!"

[@AndyCurriePhotography]

Long after selling my Strat (the inability to do the change from C to G killed me), I STILL watch every video you produce for the playing, the GAS and the humour! - keep up the great work!

[@addy5572]

I’ve just had a sick idea. You don’t have to pay me or give me credit. Just run with it, World Cup of guitars. Rounds from the major countries to decide which guitar represents that country, brands from that country. Then the countries compete. Guitarolympics. Better yet, you could have different weight classes, budget, mid range, expensive. You could do ones for bases and acoustics too. Just a thought. 👌🏼

[@ziphrox]

Two words: *_FUCK YES._*

[@ScopedDawg]

Wouldn't America just win, though? At least for guitars and amps. They are just so diverse and world class. I'd like to see it for sure but it just seems like USA would be #1 without much conpetition

[@ScopedDawg]

@BeTheDeathOfMe perhaps, I suppose amps depends on your style of music. Between Fender, milkman, tone king, Mesa boogie, Dumble...I know a lot of those are boutique but I think fender and Mesa boogie would put up a fight. Two rock too. Just a thought. But I like the conversation

[@FelixIsMyName]

Fuck me, that is epic!

[@sandmansevenseven1512]

@@ScopedDawg english would win for best amps

[@MikeB_UK]

As a viewer I have watched dozens of your videos that aren't really relevant to me, but you have that entertaining charisma that is just so addictive. As someone else has said it is like "Top Gear" but for guitar stuff. The great camera, sound and editing work also helps as do the funny effects like breaking mugs, etc. Watching the channel resulted in me buying some items of gear from you not even in a review, just because I like your videos. Please do another 10 years.

[@daniherg]

Would be cool if the three of you (Rob, Lee and Pete) could do a video together, just for the sake of the good old times!

[@swamiward5625]

Would love to see a blues jam with Pete, Rob and maybe even Rabea. We've seen Lee with the others

[@anthonynonya]

This is one of my favorite C&C videos for sure.

[@filnn]

Live shows would be amazing. Rob and The Captain are basically the Top Gear (Clarkson, May and Hammond) of the Guitar world.

[@simpebiff]

Been watching you guys ever since my best friend showed me back in 2010. Me and him used to watch you every day during university. I still get excited whenever a new blindfold video comes up! Much love.

[@luketama1]

Would 10000% pay to see a chapters captain live thing

[@kelvintebrake3267]

Hey Rob and Lee, I'd like to thank you guys for giving me back the joy of playing guitar! I've been playing guitar for 8 years now although the past year up until a month ago i haven't at all played because i just became bored with it. Watching your videos has seally brought back my enthousiasm for playing music and exploring more aspects of the instrument! Cheers to another ten years💪
