Dude, I SO appreciate you! Just wanted to say 1) I watched every second of this video; 2) it IS a tremolo and 3) you were born in 1989 - the year I graduated high school and you're down with Doug Aldrich and, one of the most underrated hard rock bands of all time, Hurricane! I LOVE that! Keep rocking and PLEASE keep making these terrific videos!

I really hope you appreciate your wife for walking beside and supporting you. Thank you for the videos and the time you put in. I'm 58 and consider myself an accomplished guitarist but always willing to learn more so planning on enrolling in your course to get me through the winter months here in Indiana! Oh, for my guitars I have a USA 2020 EVH Wolfgang EVH Signature in ivory, an AM Special HSS Fender Stratocaster, American AM Pro Fender Telecaster, Gibson LP, Jackson Rhoades JS3, Jackson Kelly, Sterling by Music Man AX4, Dean acoustic/electric and an Epiphone SG. Headrush pedalboard, 2 Headrush FRFR112's, Heil Talkbox, and a Marshall DSL100H with full Marshall MX412 stack. Also have a supportive girlfriend Ssndy that doesn't complain about my collection!

[@vincentrandles8105]

My 1st electric was a Danelectro, the toilex on the side, the lipstick pups, & mine came with the small amp inside the case! How cool was that? My Mom purchased it from a music store here in our town (not the one I would have picked,but hey) & paid $35 for it, case & all. Course I 'think' she bought some lessons at the same time. Find a 60's one for that now brother! All I wanted to do is play my Led Zepp 3 album, & pick out peices and learn em! My Mom on the other hand thought this was all NOISE! So that didn't last long....she got her $35 back, & that was that, until I saved up to get my own; then she was stuck with me playing loud noises!

[@KingxGary]

So thats why there was no doorknob for a while. To keep Gabby out.

[@ChrisXzor]

Your intro jams never fucking fail to give me goosebumps man, definitely using this video as my excuse to add to my collection.

[@usagi2988]

I have a '75 LP Custom that is also Tobacco Burst, and the guitar is exactly as you say: it's basically everything "undesirable" about 70's Gibsons... but it sounds, plays, feels so frickin' good. It's easily my favorite of my guitars.

[@minkorrh]

No Robert, you're not boring. You're quite talented, and without someone talented such as yourself to make them sing they are nothing but wood and wire.

[@craiger2399]

I ended up getting a Les Paul from 1979. Turns out it is also a Kalamazoo with one piece back and two piece top, maple neck. Weighs 11 lbs, but not a deal breaker for me. I came back to this video after I got it because I thought yours had similar specs. These are truly sleepers with incredible tone.

[@scorpionsaloon4169]

Cool rockin' tune on the intro, Robert!

[@RobertBakerGuitar]

Thanks!

[@Cactusruss1]

I used to be that one thought the gear made the player. I have many guitars and had to finally realize that the gear is only as good as the player. That's why I follow your channel in hopes of becoming a better player regardless of the gear I have. Not ready to get rid of my gear, just wanting to put it all to better use and knowing what to use it for. Thanks for all your teachings Robert!!!! Much Love and Respect!!

[@timwhite5562]

I did a "Nashville Tele," type wiring on one of my Strats. I swapped the 5 way switch for a 4: neck- neck & bridge- bridge- Neck & bridge in series. I wired a master tone and replaced the second for a blender for the middle pickup. It goes mid p/u to blender, and blender directly out to the Jack. So it doesn't run through switching/volume or tone. So I can blend it with the neck or bridge, it has more output and top end and doesn't have to rely on how the other pickups are doing. The only drawback is if you use the middle pickup on its own, you won't be able to do it.

[@zacharyperazzo9974]

Great vid Robert, you have such a good attitude towards people, I am a older player and have never got that good but still love the learning videos. I stopped playing several years ago so as to unlearn a lot bad crap I picked up. Hope when I get back to it I will have a different sound.

[@davidburke2132]

It IS a tremolo arm, because it’s on a Fender Strat and Leo Fender called his Strat bridges “tremolos”, even though it’s the wrong terminology musically. Some people say that Leo named this wrong (and the “vibrato” effect in his amps, which is really tremolo of course) on purpose, which may be true, as people are still talking about it more than 60 years later and still giving his products free publicity (which they don’t really need now, but certainly did when he was starting out). 😜

[@thedude9999]

Just got a prs ce 24 last week and I honestly can't believe how good it is. Can't spot a single flaw with the build quality, plays great sounds great and looks great as well.

[@paulillingworth90]

I haven’t seen any one say this so I’ll say it. The part in the vid where Robert doesn’t know what the push pull does on that one guitar. He was on the neck pickup and pulled it out played and pushed it in an played and it didn’t sound different. I think he has to be on the bridge pickup for it to do anything. Take the humbucker to split single coil. I think he knows this but was just over looking it.

[@sfcmp7005]

I love the growl of the tobacco burst Les Paul! That guitar has a unique sound of its own! Very nice!

[@samuelcarey9042]

My dad just brought his old 335 back from our home town, it’s the first quality guitar I’ve played, it’s not a Gibson but it sounds amazing still.

[@bighar1966]

Pretty cool of you to share all the guitars and I can totally relate to having unique tones. Why would anyone want multiple guitars that sounds pretty much the same. The tone and the feel of the neck is sells me on any guitar

[@jonathanblack1416]

I bought a Tobacco burst 77 les Paul custom in either 85 to 86. Beautiful guitar. Think it was my second or third guitar in life. It was $600 used obviously. I found many years later I wasn’t fond of the low flat frets that always made me feel like I was going to loose grip on the strings when doing bends and have been into jumbo frets since. I saw yours and was like woah. Looks just like mine. Wasn’t surprised you said it was a 70 model.

[@Bigredshred]

I made it to the end & enjoyed it! I have a collection myself, so I love the stories that go with these guitars!

[@PaulSter]

I had a CE24 that I bought new, sometime around '97-'98. I liked it' okay. I had two main issues with it. For my relatively small hands, even the wide-thin neck was wider than I preferred. The other issue, and my main complaint was that 5-way rotary switch. Drove me nuts. It was only a few years later that the mod to replace the switch with a 3-way toggle + push-pull pot was becoming widespread. By then, I had already offloaded it. Back then, they were still doing the set-in knobs which was such a better look. I'm thankful that I still have my 2000 Singlecut. Amazing guitar (beautiful quilt top too).

[@OfficialNotaku]

I am starting to build my own guitar collection, already have an ibanez, strat and a gibson les paul! All beautiful guitars

[@normbarrows]

I expected him to have more. and here I thought i didn't have G.A.S. cause Robert baker, guitar max, darrel braun, phil Mcknight etc all had more than me. I try to limit myself to one of each type, but I have 40 and counting. But 5 are extra LPs and 2 are extra teles. All the rest are unique. 6,7,8,12, and 20 strings. regular and multiscale, acoustic, hollow, semi hollow, and solid body. headstock and nohead. fender and gibson scale lengths - and a PRS of course. all types of bridges and pickups. I think i have most of the bases covered now, except for body shapes and finishes.

[@PointPanic]

I love that surf blue Friedman guitar! The whole collection is sweet.

[@andyhawkins8022]

Excellent video, man! Great to see someone who isn't smug about equipment but truly excited for all the right reasons.

[@TheSpydersBand]

I can hear various sonic differences between the guitars, but overall they sound very similar in your hands. Very chunky and sustainy. That suggests that this is the tone that inspires you and it's largely YOU and how you tweak each guitar and/or the effects and/or amps you're using. In any case, they all sound fantastic in the hands of a quality player like you.

[@guitarocd9984]

What a great opening Jam. I love slide it adds so much to a tune. Let your inner Lynyrd Skynyrd out. You can keep them all I will take the vintage Esquire.

Nice collection man! I totally agree, and I'm the same way about not owning a guitar that is very similar two others in my collection. It has to inspire me in a whole new way.

[@keithpagan6219]

Very cool opened my eyes to a few things, and yes I agree, every guitar relatively cheap or expensive have a sound all there own whether performing or recording according to your needs or particular sound your searching out, especially recording, because of the flexibility in sound modification and maybe recording multiple times with additional guitars Amps mic's etc. Fully enjoyed your video and found myself taking to you as the video moved along.

[@danielsgrunge]

That strat is one of the most beautiful guitars I've ever seen

Robert I appreciate you are a huge Page fan, as am I, but maybe the biggest name associated with the Esquire is Jeff Beck, who played his on those early Yardbirds hits, like ‘Over under sideways down’ and he got a Sitar sound out of his!

I relate to exactly what you mean as far as the tremolo bar reliability goes cuz i blocked the bridge of my Strat Special after accidentally screwing it in too far breaking the threads in the block 22yrs ago and when i bought a Squier Affinity Strat lefty i restrung obviously righty, i hardly use the bar especially since it goes out of tune from deep dive bombing the thin-block bridge; however my hardtail Bullet Strat resonates loud and is the lightest guitar I have @just over 6 pounds... by the way nice collection!
