NAMM 2018 | New Dave Friedman Guitars | Talk feat. Grover Jackson

[@2121toso]

I now own the shoreline gold Vintage T that is on the wall behind Grover during the interview. What an amazing guitar! Just can't rave enough about the quality, sound, and playability.

[@Andy-if3sv]

Grover Jackson is for sure a HUGE FUCKING LEGEND and a GREAT MAN!!! ... I once contacted him 'cause about one of a Jackson I have with his signature from the early 80's , he was so kind to answer all my questions, really a lovely man!

[@alwilliams1997]

Grover Jackson is the an absolute legend

[@davidallen346]

He reminds me of Seymour Duncan on another level

[@FunkyMonkey-ip4xy]

Greg Koch in the background checking out the Friedman guitars.

[@PeteHawthorne]

Grover is so humble and down to earth. Also love the fact all possible pickup covers are included when buying a set, all manufacturers should do that. Fantastic interview!

[@greghenderson4582]

Grover is a legend as well in the Atlanta Area ...he used to gig around here ...before he left for Californie !!!

[@jafman43]

I love my Friedman Vintage T but I did need to swap out the P90’s for Beefier bare knuckle ones but now have a perfect guitar! Love it!

[@justinespinosa7878]

Great interview! People should interview Grover more

[@MrAletube]

just look at the Tone Talk channel where he goes through a lot of his stuff

[@intrsoul]

Grover has been my hero since 1985. \m/

[@Sonic_Axe]

That black burst set neck is calling my name!

[@TheGothiczen]

I was lucky purchasing a 2nd hand Washburn elec guitar designed by Grover Jackson at the time he was designing guitars for them. Beats my other guitars in comfort and sound

[@EverettDudgeon138]

Wonder if Friedman would offer a Kahler option for the bridge. Also wonder if we will see a 24 fret model or would that be too much into Jackson territory.

[@uriteimwrong7317]

Do they make the Cali without the Floyd anymore? Thx FYI they used to.

[@jlunch]

The Metro-D is a newer model and I am finding some discrepencies in the information available regarding the scale length of that particular model. I've seen it stated it is 25.5¨ as well as 24.75¨. What is the scale length of the Metro D?

[@mrviciousspiegel4317]

24.75

[@notalkguitarampplug-insrev784]

Can I order one with stainless steel frets?

[@FunkyMonkey-ip4xy]

Never got the point of having locking tuners when the guitar has a FR with a locking nut. Maybe it's just me. Still I like the look of the Friedman's

[@EverettDudgeon138]

It reinforces the tuning stability, especially if you are abusing the hell out of the trem system.

[@andrewa2646]

Easier string changes maybe?

[@EverettDudgeon138]

Andrew G Very true.

[@philfrank9226]

Oh, the next copy stuff.

[@grassroots2112]

I wish Grover was my grandfather...is that weird?

[@SnEaKeRSkEr]

Can I have one that hasn't been ran over by a truck? I hate relic guitars I'll wear it out myself thanks. If I wanted a beat ass guitar I'd go to a pawn shop.

[@ThomannsGuitarsBasses]

Ha ha! I know you can order a barely aged Friedman guitar (similar to a Fender Journeyman Relic). Friedman basically a custom shop, so you can order a guitar the way you want it to be. Not sure about 100% NOS gloss finishes though. That's not really their thing. //cheers, Kris

[@brickbreaker8148]

So you have to pay an upcharge for a guitar that's not beat up? Pass.

[@uriteimwrong7317]

Brick Breaker I think it’s usually the other way around.
