Los Lobos and Tedeschi Trucks Band with Jerry Garcia's "Alligator" Guitar

[@dskim5848]

You want to listen to one of the best live bands "Los Lobos" rules!

[@rocpile2517]

Super cool that Andy gets that guitar out and playing live. Better than sitting in a museum.

[@DeadFlowerBlues]

EXACTLY. How many famous guitars actually get that??

[@peterrivera374]

Xed@@DeadFlowerBlues

[@michaelshearer3559]

This is just too cool. A true '55 strat in that great of condition, body and neck. I love, especially with all the Jerryesque mods. The Europe '72 recording are some of the most sacred and beautiful tracks IME. Love it!!!

[@ede4961]

Special guitar.....still being enjoyed! Best part is watching the smiles on all these guys faces when they play it.

[@fenwaywest]

I was at the show at The Greek in Berkeley. Hidalgo played West LA Fadeaway, NFA>Bertha with it. So much fun!

[@jeffanderson8384]

I can only guess that Jerry's looking down from above with a smile and a nod.

[@ksmarken707]

He is looking down and thinking of how much 420(pun here) would have covered mortgage payments back then.

[@jerry-st7rc]

Yeah he was good friends with los lobos. Did a few shows with them on his off time.

[@lukefish7562]

So cool. I’d loved to have seen Susan’s smile and hear her playing that jewel of a guitar.

[@jackstraw4129]

Hey Luke. I asked Gnu which he enjoyed holding more, Alligator or Micalah(sp) the harpist. He said they both had their own special feel lol. :)

[@mrjc12]

See you on the ship cruise!!! Viva Los Lobos!

[@TaxPayingContributor]

Iconic artifact fondly appreciated. Thanks for sharing.

[@KarlKarsnark]

I just like seeing Derek with a Strat. I'd love to hear him play it IRL.

[@jimicunningable]

AWESOME vid, thank you! A Strat with the Strat-O-Blaster is the only Jerry style ride I can afford. XD

[@peacetrain3320]

Recently finished reading the history of Fender and Gibson (The Birth of Loud, Ian S. Port). So cool to see this ‘55 being handed around by my favs!

[@captainkangaroo4301]

Everybody loved Jerry.

[@cesaralvarado6218]

It DOES NOT get any cooler than that boys and girls. #classic

[@franklinzappa7043]

Hello from Colorado USA🤘😎

[@augustwest4233]

This so great. ❤

[@parttime9070]

A friend gave away three tickets to this show.. Lucky who ever got them..

[@sheercerebralpower]

Sounds grrrreat! Will jam with my Dead Spec tonight!❤

[@roscoej]

Great comments, you can see the appreciation on everyone’s faces .. but also, the first time I’ve seen Cesar without his shades!

[@gibby6904]

Very cool!

[@dre4011]

I always knew I wanted a Stratocaster Ever since I started teaching myself to play way back in '90 when I was 9..... I had my favorite bands as I grew up... The Grateful Dead was and is my favorite... I remember getting "Europe '72 " when I was 14 and absolutely loving Jerry's tone and playing on those albums....and it's still one of my favorite legendary Fenders ‐ Jerry's '55 Stratocaster ‐ David's '69 Stratocaster ‐ Jimi's Olympic White & Black Stratocaster's ‐ Richie's Black 70s Stratocasters ‐ Eric's "Brownie" & "Blackie" Etc...etc...etc...

[@jimkoblick1776]

Right On !!! Jerry Rocks !!!

[@gringopig]

Amazing! Thank you.

[@amaliatourinho3635]

Vocês são Lendas 💕

[@BOBBRADLEYCHANNEL]

Fantastic!

[@JamesAllmond]

Notice they all played Dead tunes when they played it... that was great. Jerry would have loved it, but would want it PLAYED....

[@susanschultz6226]

Goddamn wish y'all could visit so. Oregon. Ur amazing!

[@stonephilips9361]

Needs to be played🤟🏽🎸

[@sloburnjo]

Now you can ALL own one.😀

[@wallyh24]

Well....that was cool AF

[@petergoddard1960]

Yeah!

[@jimmypenrose1401]

These bands have just been killing it together this summer. What a great tour that combination has been. I caught them at Wolftrap in July and it was the best concert I had seen in years...it was the ONLY concert I had seen in years! It was a great way to celebrate the end of lockdown. Aligator has been getting around this summer; fender guitars just introduced an exact Alligator replica from their custom shop that looks pretty sweet; the sticker for it is $20k if you want one for yourself. Here's a video of Big Steve Parish getting a visit with both the original and the replica - kzbin.info/www/bejne/epuwlYaAipKYgsk

[@justinm1766]

Wish I had the money, this is one custom shop model that I really want. I'll keep playing my $20 goodwill starcaster strat with a paf humbucker.

[@Ibraheem224]

Wow, Derek can play standard tuning?

[@GerryBlue]

What's the song at 3:10 please?

[@imanalien2222]

Los Lobos covering Bertha by the Grateful Dead. Sounds rippin!

[@GerryBlue]

@@imanalien2222 Thanks!

[@ThePageNo1]

Derek starts playing it and everyone stops talking

[@estebanstopelli]

❤❤❤

[@golds04]

Only thing comparable- was seeing a show back in the day with jer playing it. Ah the days of yore with Pig and tie dye fender twins…

[@flyemhard]

yeah...

[@shurke007]

[@vincethompson82]

I don’t think I’ve even seen Cesar without his shades on.

420. Great story.

[@Tacosombrero123]

U look amazing

[@drivenmad7676]

as a southpaw, i feel the pain.

[@franktaconelli9095]

David Hidalgo in my top 10 favorite guitarists of all time; I shook his hand once and his fingers were so long they wrapped around my wrist! Jerry’s guitar? Who cares; the only concert I ever fell asleep at was the Dead

[@marcsullivan7987]

David Hildago cares.

[@MaTTheWish]

Ha ha ha billionaire humer rocks! $420,000...420... Brilliant.

[@tylerthompson1842]

Just like a stoner to say “Fck that.. it’s priceless!” When it was in fact 420k

[@angiethorne9025]

𝕡𝕣𝕠𝕞𝕠𝕤𝕞 💯

[@saleenmac]

420k

[@gratefuljr]

Just don’t let anyone from phish touch it

[@SinnGread]

dont give a fuck about the money you spent.. why is the conversation about the fucking money ... its about Jerry and his guitar and the pioneering changes that happen in music because of him.. I think Jerry would roll over in his grave over all the money talk about his guitar $vaule$ and the lack of interest in what was actually important

[@nasticanasta]

Another gimmick from fender....what a joke

[@justinm1766]

20K is just insane for any new electric IMO.
