[@fluroflash2803]

Mike M. 2 could be school days 😝😝😝

[@mikeymojo8299]

Fluro Flash or the other 75% of the Chuck Berry catalogue 😂

[@urieladen8242]

Pro trick: watch series at Flixzone. I've been using them for watching loads of movies lately.

[@maddenseth5860]

@Uriel Aden Definitely, have been using flixzone for years myself =)

[@matty051]

My 2 day old son, Harrison, watched his first Guitar of the Day today! He loved it and we can’t wait to watch as a family every night!

[@ianpavelko3827]

Chuck, Chuck! It's Marvin! Your cousin, Marvin Berry! You know that new sound you're looking for? Well listen to Mark Agnesi on #WednESday

[@thomasnettleton289]

"This is a blues riff in B. Watch me for the changes...and try to keep up."

[@rotom223]

Guess you guys weren't ready for that, but your kids are gonna love it

[@oskarileikos]

*undefinable speed picking *

[@christophermay4998]

Thomas Nettleton good one.....back to the future.....👍👍

[@ddick1996]

Went to Norm's on Saturday and somehow ended up being the owner of this guitar. Crazy how it ended up back there after 2.5 years. Incredible guitar.

[@LAUptegrove]

If you want to part with it, let me know.

[@whimpypatrol5503]

Norm's staff be on to something. Even though Gibson didn't bring down rock-n-roll in 1959 (somebody else did), they may be the reason rock got resurrected in 1963 without it rockabilly roots. It was those PAFs Gibson worshiped that kept rockabilly in it's grave until Brian Setzer plugged in a guitar with filtertrons in the 1980's about. PAFs are no good for vintage rockabilly. But we may never know what filtertrons would sound like in a Gibson hollowbodied archtop. Never.

[@pgroove163]

Good luck enjoy

[@pgroove163]

@@whimpypatrol5503 these babies are excellent jazz guitars

[@whimpypatrol5503]

@pgroove163 Yes, inserted PAFs in a carved Gibson archtop given the right picking technique yields perhaps the greatest jazz guitar tones ever, such as Kenny Burrell's midnight blue and even Wes Montgomery's commercial recordings. But the price of Gibson archtops is for ultra wealthy dreamers, collectors, and merchants to put in display cases and vaults. Even if such were not, getting those great jazz tones out of the recording studio in front of a live audience is a monumental challenge.

[@Bodyknowledge77]

Chuck Berry "You Never Can Tell" 2. Same Great Dude" No Particular Place To Go" 3. Still Same Great Dude " Johnny B Goode" Marky be Bad! Where would the rock be without the Chuck B?! 2 days till 2 months to my b-day..Guess what year...?

[@billgelder]

Friday is my goldfish Bubbles 2nd birthday. We watch every episode of GOTD together. It is the highlight of our day. Would you PLEASE give him a shout out for his birthday. He has been very depressed since the plant in his bowl died, and a birthday shout out would cheer him up a lot.

[@user-rf5px3gh3p]

Johnny B Goode is THE song that made me want to learn guitar. Love u Chuck!

[@ReneBrain]

It is my 28th Birthday on friday. I am writing it now because i am from germany and the episodes are coming out during the night here. I am watching today on thursday the wednesday episode :) Greetz. Viktor Trautwein ;)

[@billyrossi4661]

RIP Chuck Berry !!!!

[@timlilly]

Lovely, I never knew the scale length changed, and who'd have thought we would lust after a Norlin Gibson. That's guitar of the month right there.

[@bobsteel6916]

I love it!! Another excellent guitar and Mark video. Many people I know that like rock all like solid bodies. I have discovered for myself that semi-hollow guitars get a variety of awesome rock tones. My ES is modified with pickups I wound myself and various wiring styles I tried, which I created a monster!! Mark, one of my biggest goals is to come there and tell you personally how awesome you are and Norms guitar shop!!!

[@DanButcher303]

Nice !!!!! My kids watch, especially on Thursday!!!!!!!!!!

[@GuitarlosCarlos]

Dan Butcher SMART KIDS

[@fooll]

Finally... I bought a 1992 a few months back and wanted to know more about it...Awesome Guitar

[@charlespatrick1572]

I'm really getting addicted to your GOTD videos. I always wait for the "Byeeeeee" Thanks guys.

[@ARawFueledLife]

6:02 The Gibson Johnny Smith is a 25" scale.

[@songwriterjj6022]

I'm still kicking myself. When I was going to school in Chicago, Chuck Berry was signing books at a store. I brought my strat hoping he would sign it. But I was an idiot and panicked because I was late for class. What a dope.

[@gusdupree2508]

Jeff Jarecki school days and yeah that was goofy

[@davidcampbell4174]

You don't even have to play that guitar for it to make a statement. Nice work you two.

[@gadymarcus2362]

Wow what a fabulous guitar love it

[@MrStranger1944]

I can dig it.

[@I.am_Groot]

Once more suggestion for the 500th show. Let Jen start with 'Hey this is Mark Agnesi' and once she gets to the guitar Mark takes over. Come on it would be FUN FUN

[@joelgarf2979]

Mark, correct me if I'm wrong but I believe one good thing about the pressed maple was that it had less feedback as opposed to the curved spruce. I thing that among other reason Herb Ellis used an ES-175 on stage to get more volume. Very nice. And a Big Hello to Jen from Texas

Played a few concerts with Chuck. He was using a red 355 then, in the early 70s. At least I think it was a 355; will check some pictures out.

[@Trev9]

Mark plays a lot better than some of the 'stars' who frequent the store

[@RockHardRiffs]

I call that 'one helluva Wednesday'. Holy Cow Yes!!!

[@lauramoore9659]

PRETTY COLORS!!!

[@troybagby4902]

Awesome guitar. I got to see Chuck in St. Louis before he died.

[@davidkieltyka9]

Nice. The Barney Kessels are also 25.5” scale guitars.

[@antoniosalazar6718]

Y'all are hilarious😂 thanks Mark and Jen😎

[@poppasteve2976]

You guys ever have an ES 325 come through? I own the only one I've ever seen in person. Weird and ES all in one!

[@StevenAlwine]

Man, Gibson was really good at making almost identical guitars.

[@bills48321]

Mark, my apologies for being pedantic, but I believe that the Gibson Johnny Smith has a 25 inch scale length, not 25.5 inch. Great guitar!

[@TheRockyhockey007]

hail hail rock and roll , and the father of R&R , I am duck walking across the kitchen floor as we speak , my wife is LHAO , anyway nice looking guitar , not big on the hollow bodies but they make the perfect sound for Chuck Berry songs , rock on dudes

[@xJaGG3d]

That has to be the cleanest 77 guitar I've seen.

[@Wizardofgosz]

Soon the whole show will be shout-outs. I have a friend who is a FOH engineer for a famous pop star. He just doesn't do shout-outs because once you start it will bet out of control, so he politely refuses.

[@tomjohn3364]

Gotta love some Chuck!!!!! The man was one of the greats. So many picked up a guitar because if him. Such a cool guitar. I haven't seen one if these in years. Good to see one again. Vox vox VOX.

[@dusty918]

Hey guys can you please send a shout out to my son Keven Dusty on Saturday? He's turning 9 and we watch you all the time. Much love guys.

[@sickb2200]

Play some Monte Montgomery on Flat Top Friday. That'd be sweet.

[@fluroflash2803]

Love some chuck berry... Three of my favourites as well! Please play some Rory Gallgher when you get a chance

[@DoppelgangerShockwave]

Hell yeah! Thank you so much for your tribute to the true King of Rock N' Roll, Mark! It's a shame you didn't play 'Maybellene,' but it's all good. :)

[@whimpypatrol5503]

I wish Gibson did a solid-formed 2 1/2 inch deep 7 string archtop with a chambered center-block and inserted pickups.

[@stevesipocz6987]

Gotta love a little Chuck. Great playing as usual Mark. HYEE Jen. 😎🎸🎶

[@anthonyc1883]

3:50 "Chuck had a blonde one." Yeah, he sure di.

[@montys8th]

The original 70's Gibson RD's were also 25.5" scale. All the reissues are 24.75" scale though.

[@andrewpappas9311]

Neck Pickup: Not sure Middle Pickup: Sounds like a Chuck Berry song that I'm not familiar with Bridge Pickup: Intro reminds me kinda like Johnny B. Goode

[@billyclub56]

I ❤️ Chuck!! Question, what guitar has hung in ur shop the longest & just wont sell?? Curious

[@matthewpaluch777]

Happy Weird-Ass WednESday everyone! More gibby goodness! "Hail Hail rock n' roll!"

[@Antrobrebb]

Mark. Have you ever reviewed a Memphis ES 195?

[@chrishenderson9130]

Yeah! Chuck!

[@benjaminarmstrong7047]

Fender scale length and Fender looking three color sunburst. J-200s have 25 1/2 scale length.

[@DevunGames]

I would love some more offset guitars (fender or Gibson) or some vintage Ibanez stuff.

[@stephencuthbertson8231]

Do that gold fender behind you on the right (your left)

[@garrettohmie]

Please Mark NO MORE 410 HOTROD DEVILE! These amazing classic beautiful guitars are having their sound Castrated by that Damn 410 DEVILE!! Other than that I love the show & watch everyday!! :) #nomorehotroddevile

[@romeogolf72]

[@Oris37]

For one split second when you mentioned Kylie in Australia, I thought it was THE Kylie..!!! (Minogue, that is). Although I'm sure this Kylie can rock a pair of gold short-shorts too... :-)

Happy Wednesday!!!

[@catfishmudflap]

When the aliens first made contact, they came for one thing.... to listen to Chuck Berry.

[@DrGregC]

So... basically Mark plays whatever he feels like or needs to sell. Forget Tele Tuesday, Weird Ass Wednesday... GOTD is simply today's Blue Light Special.

[@imperium7846]

Do an ESP or another Jackson

[@imperium7846]

[@boss123400]

JB Mark did a Jackson with extra sensory perception and is still sending child support to Tupelo, Mississippi

[@aj2674]

JB every video bud?

[@oskarileikos]

Please never ever do an ESP or a Jackson. There's a pretty good reason why Norm's appreciates vintage guitars over neon-pink EMG-equipped Soloists

[@randychicoine6953]

Sweet Chuck Berry set Mark awesome 🎸

Mmm fun guitar, thanks! ✌️byeeeeee

[@samnasello9890]

Damn. You beat the crap out of that guitar. Nice!

[@edwardlouisbernays2469]

My Epiphone "Pre-Joe" Emperor 2, Should be called a ES 350 reissue. It features the almost same specs...and is Thinner than the Emperor-Regent. If the "Joe Pass" was a Inch Skinnier....(well what else word would I use? More Thinner? We are not painting a Oil Painting. The Emperor ii I have has a Wiring Harness which is NOT Les Paul style, in middle position you can completely Turn Off Bass or Treble Volumne, but the Guitar still plays. ) Epiphone Emperor II, Guitar Info Your guitar was made in Korea on July, 1989 Production Number: 410

[@keltenchyz4299]
