The best part of that video was watching his smile drop as he walked past the camera.

[@gamesandcake4892]

Very cool of Mike Campbell to do this, but then Mike Campbell seems like a very cool guy, as well as being an amazing musician.

[@vintagevinylvets1187]

Very nice of you folks to do something extra for a young man.We know this was all “put on,” but VERY kind to take just a few minutes to make Reece feel special. #PureClass

[@derekpink]

A guitar in Mike Campbell’s hands is a beautiful thing.

[@mikeymojo8299]

like a kid in a candy store..... just need one of those 1965 J45’s got any of those laying around? priceless congrats Reece 🎸 doesn’t get any better than that

[@briancollins8866]

[@MAGAMANPATRIOT]

Wow what a graduation present !! You give someone a guitar you've given them the life long gift of music ..

[@bobsmoot8454]

Mike is a cool guy, so is Norm

[@Millennial_Mike]

I love Mike's writing and playing style.

[@trish9614]

Norm knew he was coming and ran to his warehouse and grabbed that beauty. 😆🤘

[@Lookup2Wakeup]

Good acting by all ............

[@Oceantreasures24]

Or he knew Mike was coming ahead of time and just had the camera ready

[@sickb2200]

That's one hell of a graduation gift!!!

[@GerardWaysHun20]

For sure! These go for 3-4k...so, @ Norm's it was probably 6-7k.

[@ralph40]

That was like way cool. I pray that that young man does many good things with his life, and that Mike & Norm have nothing but good come their way.

[@frankzappa951]

[@cherylmarino9923]

Cool, nice gift! So generous. Lucky Reese. Benmont, our son, Jared "pineapple" is graduating HS next year and would love a new keyboard :)

[@mototheroad2566]

That was weird and Campbell just walks off.

[@hotdogflavouredmilkshake]

moto theroad well there was a reason for that lol

[@ST-xg3gy]

Odd. Who directed this video?

[@joemeyer6876]

That is Great!

[@adamskaboy]

Sweet! How nice!

[@izzynutz2000]

Lucky young man...

[@timndel]

Too cool. Mike should sign it.

[@hotdogflavouredmilkshake]

[@stephenquail3168]

I dig Mike

[@rreszler]

Pretty cool man! 😎👍

[@martinbauer4909]

Looks better than my wife. Priceless! You should get an academy award!

[@ReserveForTwelve]

Fabulous Mike Campbell Style : 10 Guitar player : 11 Acting skill : 0 😂

[@mindcontrol67]

Lol.

[@michaelr.4878]

So true. hehe. A big fat zero.

[@cvtataryn]

that's just cool

[@dougsuitt5971]

Is it me or does Mike Campbell sound like Tom Petty?

[@sweetswing1]

Me too

[@digthemusicman483]

Even has the same vibe

[@Wade6242]

Yea he does

[@bezzarguy]

They played music and were best friends for 50 years......

[@bgilley8199]

Doug Suitt same age, probably from the same area of the country. I noticed that he sounds like him too, and from the side he looks a lot like Tom.

[@ericwiese7479]

I have one of these from my grandpa

[@collectivesartori]

Now Reece... no pressure... but you need to become an awesome guitarist if you aren’t one already. At least enjoy every minute of it. Don’t let Mike or your dad down, now. ;-)

[@johneason6540]

Wow!

[@williameason5795]

Hi John Eason. I'm..WR Eason. In Miss. Do. You. Love. In..Fla?

[@susansperrazza2790]

Mike and norm going from Tennessee to my home I stopped in fortwhite a old stomping ground where i had a farm house I looked at the old tobacco fields the old pawn shop the small plot of land for the people to do their Flea market it never leaves your system the art of giving .Joe

[@CJMarketman]

For a second there I thought Norm was gonna do Guitar of the Day.

[@yelddoswell9292]

That was really nice!! Tho I admit I had my hands out too!! Sorry I couldn't help it.

[@tonydarmand]

Wish my dad bought me a vintage Gibson for graduating HIGHSCHOOL

[@bentolleson8582]

That is so cool

[@Ric_guitar]

I always do the same, but instead of buying the guitar, I said to the sales rep. guy that I will be back for it, but I never do it :)) I purchase online with a bigger diacount

[@joebodynobody764]

How long until it ends up in a pawn shop?

[@monzo9999]

Man .... I'd love to get a vintage j45 after finishing high school

[@davedavid7061]

All I got was drunk

[@geoasss3589]

veary cool

[@runingblackbear]

good guys

[@amsterdam4324]

Oh I would’ve loved to have started with a beauty of a guitar.. insane. 🤍

[@wtangodelta1715]

How cool is that?!

[@vdbdg]

This might get you an Oscar Norm!

[@c_kennmusic5737]

i'm trying to remember what i got when i graduated from highschool... oh yeah, now i remember! nothing!

[@breakroommanager1]

Yeah Reese

[@bezzarguy]

Who's Reese?

[@mikethomas7150]

Typical Mike. A very generous man.

[@bifftannen2503]

He's just out at the end there, eh? 😂

[@steveredenbaugh9058]

another Slow day at the store

[@poopskipper4070]

Sick

[@barbaramccroy8663]

Very nice.♥️☝️

[@LimitWHK]

You awkward buggers ! Awesome guesture

[@gevowavemagnet]

Mike seemed a tad grumpy, but he soldiered on...

[@Alliejen12345]

Very cool and I fell for it!! BTW what’s the cost on that beauty?

[@Grant_Ferstat]

A bit awkward but kinda cute at the same time and a hell of a nice thing to do!

[@sunbrst62]

Now there’s a thought #Gitgiftoftheday

[@nathueil1]

Guess that dropped smile at the end said it all, poor kid is probably getting heckled by friends reminding him how Mike didnt really wanna be there or really cared. As nice as it was and is that ruined it for me lol. Then to re watch it in yeah this has disaster all over it mode, just makes that dropped smile even more sad😢

[@mrtambourineman6107]

Best acting ever :)

[@mbrawthen]

I wonder what it cost? Okay I know, that’s not the important thing …Rather it’s the thought that counts.!!! I get that but what would I need to spend to obtain a vintage beauty like that? Just curious okay, I suppose I could do a Search on it, but heck, they could have shown the sticker price on here and saved me the trouble!!! 🤷🏽‍♂️🙂

[@whatnow3773]

looks like he just wokeup

[@GerardWaysHun20]

Ambien. Hell of a Drug.

[@jeffhollidy5194]

Not well scripted but really really cool

[@k31scout39]

It's Tarazana not Hollywood.

[@GerardWaysHun20]

They had a guy from the porn studio down the street write the script.

[@GerardWaysHun20]

Fun Fact: Jon Lovitz is from Tarzana. "Acting!"

[@jwahl22222]

Okay....I gotta dry my eyes now...

[@pschroeter1]

This is pure fantasy on my part, but I've watched a few videos with Gibson acoustics and I swear I may like them better than Martins.

[@charlesholliday4712]

Reminds me of a soap opera you could call it behind the strings

[@alanscharrer5255]

Can I have a bass guitar, Uncle Mike?

[@matthewwitmer380]

"But Dad, I like the drums..."

[@greensombrero3641]

nicely done.....videos last forever....people do not.

[@joemack1884]

Still in tune.lol

[@randyjones7818]

I learn to play guitar on a 67 j.45..it was a great guitar..but as time develops..I only play.d.28s and d.18s...for bluegrass music.r

[@supattokrongkaew2108]

whats the name of the song that he played at 2:00 ?

[@robertcollucci750]

Mike my Birthday is Sept 1 I finished high school..

[@Wizardofgosz]

[@mindcontrol67]

When you find out, let me know.

[@damnyankeex1]

Who the hell is Reese?

[@jimmyv6703]

No back story there. Who is Reese? His nephew?

[@hotdogflavouredmilkshake]

JimmyV no look in the description it says good friends son

[@jimmyv6703]

Oops. Thanks.

[@tomsanone]

[@travelinman482]

Who’s Mike Campbell?

[@barrysoetoro1543]

THANKS DAD ! BUT REALLY I WANTED THE PINK ONE ? LOL DAD HAVE YOU MET BRUCE??? LOL LOVE & KISSES

[@Peter7966]

Great rock guitar player. Seems like a nice guy. Sweet gift. And this whole thing seemed staged, like a transaction clip in Pawn Stars.

[@timcollins5424]

Hey Reese was your dad one of the Brady Kids????????

[@userprime01]

Well that's 3:07 I'll never get back.

[@CalmedByNature]

that was really strange lol

[@josephguerra703]

And just who is freaking Reece to get that....I graduated college too...got a pair of Oxford shoes for crying out loud

[@mayito714]

I hope Reese didn't have a party in his dorm and have a drunk sit on it.

[@stiglistanbul]

Christ, that was more scripted than Pawn Stars. And about as convincing, too.

[@jimboslice9472]

Reese Wlil use that until he's the next justin bever

[@ZionForman]

well that's special and all, but it's not like the '65 J-45 is the one to get

[@quad1000]

Oh man no sh**! Wow, how about that!

[@Leel3ones89]

I don't understand who Reese is?
