The Duesenberg Fairytale Lapsteel Goldburst

[@OldFlapper]

You hit the deck running there, Jon. You've only had it a few moments, yet it sounds like you were born with it in your hands. I think the Lord must have cried a happy, happy tear when He made you, Sir. Just perfect!

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

Awwwww.Thank you dear brother🤓

[@flyme-z7b]

Jonathan; Everything you do seems to alway be in such good taste and provides inspiration to the rest of us. You really are a treasure. I have a brand new Duesenberg 'Split King' in black and ivory that I am just getting into. Your video inspires me to take it slow, be methodical and that 'less is more' for the time being. After 50 years with electric and acoustic guitars this will be a refreshing, new journey. As always, thank you for what you do and for all of the inspiration along the way.

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

Glad you're enjoying the ride!

[@karst41]

Luke Cyrus Goetz and Troy Brenningmeyer are amazing. Luke has a massive talent on a world wide stage, and Troy is the consummate pro. The sleeper is Martin Huch his demos on these machines present a great overview.

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

Yes indeed! They are just so awesome!!

[@Jaggerbush]

This is so beautiful! Thanks for sharing this.

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@lifeenvironments]

Thanks!

[@lifeenvironments]

You've cost me about $7k so far. The least I can do is to buy you some coffee to keep you up at night too! ☕️

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

@@lifeenvironments lol!! good grief! I did all that!!

[@lifeenvironments]

@@JonIsJustTooLoud Yes, 2 PRS guitars later - and now likely a lap steel. I was actually looking for these items anyway, but your reviews help me make purchases I don't regret. I appreciate your channel, but it certainly isn't cheap! I've dated women who cost me less! 😜 Thanks so much for your work!

[@Michael4yah]

It’s nice to be reminded of our childhoods. You inspire a lot of people. Thank you.

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

❤️❤️❤️

[@Runner2000]

Damn! You pulled that thing out of the box and crushed it like the Lap Steel was invented just for you! That was amazing! I want a Doozy so bad.

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

Thank you kindly!

[@jimunderdown6134]

Thankyou Jon for demonstrating to millions another form of playing. Having played pedal and lap steel most of my life I hope you enjoy your new adventure

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

Thank you so much.. I’m still learning 🤣

[@bigcole9832]

Jon i don't think there is anything you cant make sound magical...wonderful simply wonderful..thank you Sir...

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

Thank you brother!🤓

[@martymcdonald9177]

Thanks for the info . It was very helpful.

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

Glad you found it helpful!

[@tonyhao9344]

Nice, thanks for sharing. I decided a couple weeks ago I wanted to try a new instrument. I’ve always loved the sound of steel guitar and growing up in Hawaii I knew lots of friends and family who played them. I saw Luke and Troy you mentioned and had to have one. After finding out about Duesenberg I I discovered there was a dealer here in New Zealand. They actually had a Fairytail split king in stock so I bought it today. I’m looking forward to getting it and playing it. You just inspired me again too, have been watching your vids for years good to know I got the right guitar. 🙂 God Bless!

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

Glad to be able to do that!! Godbless!!

[@sketchyold]

Jonathan, you are a MASTER! Rock, blues, blues rock, jazz, fusion, slide, and LAP STEEL! And ALWAYS with musicality and taste! I apologize for all of the exclamation points!!!!!! But your talent and humble personality deserves as much recognition and good fortune as you can get!!! God Bless 🙏🏽

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

Thank you so much.. God bless✌️❤️

[@tomdameek]

Beautiful!! I could listen to that all day Jon. It’s also some looker too. You’re already playing it like a master too. I hope you have years of fun with it 😊👍❤️

I just took a plane and I’m pretty tired right now, but listening to you playing this beautiful instrument relaxed me so much, thank you! ☺️

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

I’m glad..✌️❤️

Cool ambient vibe.

[@andrewmarr5030]

Nicely played Jon!! I'm told my Duesy should be in stock shortly....cannot wait....you're making magic there!!

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

awesome!! bet you cant wait.. ✌❤*

[@charlesharper7292]

Absolutely mesmerizing instrument. The one I hoped to get years ago was not electronic. I didn't know they existed. I've heard country, Hawaiian, and jazz played on a lap steel. I've never heard Celtic music played on one. Thanks for sharing something forgotten.

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

✌️😆✌️

[@davidlawrence3560]

Wow. So simple, yet profound….

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

Glad you think so!

[@Jursorama]

I LOVE this video - and the way you play !

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

Thank you!

[@volker001]

You´re very welcome@@JonIsJustTooLoud - I never learned how to really play a guitar, but NOW I will ! :-)

[@TheWhiskeyCowboyLife]

I didn't know you played the lap steel! Great job! And that is one beautiful instrument. I am a sucker for a nice burst. Cheers!

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

Thank you

[@RickGaudreau]

You play beautifully.

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

Thank you kindly!

[@darladesautel]

pretty sure that is my favorite instrument in the world

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

Well ..it is for me✌️❤️

[@lucasroberto5009]

Very good! 👍

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

Thank you!

[@tossedpenny]

It's absolutely beautiful. I have a Duesey Starplayer TV and have been eyeing one of these for quite awhile now and will pick one up someday. Be sure to wipe down all the nickel hardware with a soft cloth after playing to remove all the fingerprint and palm print oils to prevent corrosion. Nickel hardware corrodes and pits crazy fast without proper care.

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

Thank you for the reminder!✌️❤️

[@AlbertoMartinezDelRio]

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

Thank you ✌️❤️

[@lifeenvironments]

I have started falling more in love with the steel guitar. Pink Floyd highlighted its expressiveness so eloquently in The Great Gig in the Sky. The steel guitar clearly has applications to explore well beyond Nashville. Your work in this video is beautiful. Is there anything you can't play? Delightful.

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

lol...thank you !🤓

[@lifeenvironments]

By the way, I play a Furch Red Master's Choice. Most amazing instrument i have played. Would love to see your review and thoughts regarding Furch - if you can get them in Singapore.keep up the great work!

[@charlesharper7292]

My second instrument was a ukulele. I'm not sure if my baritone guitar would be considered a different instrument. Im still getting my head wrapped around that one. The lap steel is amazing.

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

I love it!

[@GregTuckerKellogg]

Sweet steel and great playing! I've always wanted to try a Duesenberg. (I haven't met another lap steel player in Singapore in over a decade)

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

All you have now! Lol✌️❤️

[@КонстантинТихонов-б3х]

Fine. As always.

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

Thank you! Cheers!✌♥

[@MrPatdeeee]

Kind Sir, you and your subscribers; might find this interesting; about your Deusenberg Steel Guitar "multi-bender". For I was asked 25 yrs ago; to write a book about the evolution of the Pedal Steel Guitar. Which "bends" it's strings; by using foot pedals and knee levers. So I did it: and got it copyrighted in 2008. I did this because I'm NOT a good SG player atoll; but I love to play it alone. So I wanted to know: everything about how the PSG worked. And that is why many SG players asked me to write the book. On the "Steel Guitar Forum". I said all of that; to say this; I fell in love with Luke Goetze's and Martin Hutch's playing. I believe they are 2 of the greatest on this incredible "Multi-bender"; that I have heard to date. But I now will add a 3rd player of this awesome Bender guitar. And that is YOU kind Sir. Thank you for making this video. It is beautiful to listen to. Incidentally: Deusenberg says that you can have only 5 Benders. But on my benders; I found a way to have 6 Benders. Allowing any string to be bended. And all I did; was buy thinner nylon washers; that are between the bender's, on the axle. embellish.

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

That’s awesome!! Thanks for sharing!!

[@MrPatdeeee]

@@JonIsJustTooLoud Thank you for your kind words, dear person

[@chrisschopenhauer6261]

Yes i remember the movie!✌

[@Earthshaker1965]

Beautiful piece of instrument!!!! Lol. Jon, now just imagine putting a Floyd Rose and a Seymour Duncan invader pickup on it. Followed up with a killer flame paint scheme on it. We will call it "Lapisaurus"......👀🎸😁🦖

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

Lol!! Good grief!!😱

[@ralphobert3664]

I would love an update, now that you have had this awhile…..❤️

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

It’s great.. I used it on some of my covers in this channel.. kzbin.info/aero/PLSoLXQn-ilylsf9oCLLa-wHBxsnQRS164

[@MountatinMusic0]

wow Jon, Ive gotta say I also was inspired by Troy And Luke. however I gotta say you've inspired me as well brother. your playing after such a short time is effortless and the tone and musicality of your playing is beautiful and it transported me. thank you for your fantastic review and thank you for the lovely demo. Ive also been playing for a bit over a month myself and it has recharged my love of music. one day I will own one of these beautiful models. is there any way for us to access the backing track you were playing along to? it was so nice and I could imagine playing to it for hours haha. anyway cheers and thank you again from Canada

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

Thank you so much ✌️❤️

[@kevinmackfurniture]

This thing was Expensive !!.... I have NO regrets. 😝 I want one !

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

Go for it!!

[@charlesharper7292]

Holy Wow! Thomann?!? " Like flying a helicopter..." 🤣🤣🤣🤣👍

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

😂

[@JohnOShaughnessy]

wonderful review. Can you do more Duesies? Like the Julia or a Falken? Those Germans make good instruments

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

I know John.. but they are hard to come by over here ✌️❤️

[@JohnOShaughnessy]

@@JonIsJustTooLoud ah, okay understandable. And they are not cheap either. But impeccably built.

[@xenod1066]

Is the intro music by you also? That's really lovely as well.

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

Just the one where you can see me play✌️😂✌️

[@ellagrace7844]

How can I purchase one please!!

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

Check with Thomann or Anderton ✌️❤️

[@tomrwills]

Luke Cyrus is incredible!

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

Yes he is!!!

[@MarkFromHawaii]

Some day I’d like to get a steel guitar. Sadly there aren’t too many players in Hawaii. They’re in high demand.

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

That’s a lapsteel! Plenty of these in Hawaii✌🏻❤️

[@MarkFromHawaii]

@@JonIsJustTooLoud Steel players are in high demand for traditional Hawaiian music. Not too many guitarists here play. It's a job opportunity. 😉 Maybe I'll get a cheap lap steel like a Gretsch G5700 from Sweetwater to start.

[@claudiajay8291]

It’s nice to play a second instrument . Do you ever play open D on guitar? Or Drop D ? I find that sounds pretty nice too. Although I’m still learning about playing in different tunings.

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

Yes I do play on open D tuning amongst others...Have fun and explore!!✌♥

[@TheCrystalyne]

Wow, where did you get that Jon, I have been looking high and low and cant find one for sale..ah, ok .....Germany
