Some of my Fender necks sound like that.

[@thesteelstrummer2307]

THats cuz the frets SUCK!!! LOL

[@tzvitombak5671]

@@thesteelstrummer2307 Nothing gets past you, sherlock

[@hiccoughs849]

Lol ,צבי

[@Lennonology]

I know this is a joke, but I was really going to ask about this. Are sitars like this by design? Is the action bad on purpose? Like I have no idea why it produces the sound it does.

[@tehblucryptic7049]

Chris S The frets being bad is not what creates the sound. It’s a special bridge that vibrates the strings to make it sound like a sitar

[@schecterseven3894]

weird ass affordable wednesday.

[@payday1963]

What no Norwegian Wood??

[@theguy9870]

payday1963 I thought exactly the same thing.

[@jordanfuzul5245]

payday1963 i know shame on him.

[@crabbtrixexp]

love that sound, even if it's not a real sitar, it never ceases to inspire me

[@dougwintin1375]

Hey, Ravi Lemmo is in the house!

[@MrErdner]

I remember playing one of those on a "test drive" at a local guitar store. It was the bridge that produced the distinctive "buzz". The originals also had a little bracket that attached to the bottom of the guitar so that it would rest comfortably on your thigh.

[@stephennnnnnnnnnnn]

Lemmo, I'm enjoying your work.

[@RockHardRiffs]

Alice B. Tokeless? Too freaking cool. I'm digging the Lemmo demo's mo and mo!

[@wezzlyn]

I actually think that sounds better than Coral Sitars. Not sure why. and 500 is actually a good price. Glad to see this series is getting back to the real cool affordable shit without the ego. Keep it up, Lemmo.

[@onthe1481]

I get a little George Harrison solo vibe from it and also the Indian " Middle Eastern band that was at Woodstock. This is a good show -so far, it has showed some ecclectic guitars. That is good.

[@Alan-su5bg]

You mean ravi Shankar?

[@aliceborealis]

You mean Monterey?

[@DaveBennett]

It really needs a scalloped fretboard.

[@bobscratchit9665]

DC Custom guitars does it pretty cheap.

[@captnorm4727]

Damn .... you induced a flashback .... lol

[@guitarocd9984]

Agile Stones looooooooool

[@songwriterjj6022]

Danelectro made a baby sitar just like the one you're playing, before the Coral. Nice though, love the playing. No "Paint it Black" or Norwegian Wood." Keep up the great work!

[@timothycormier3494]

I suddenly have visions of John Paul George and ringo. Sitting around getting high with the Indian dude. Hahahah

[@onthe1481]

Timothy Cormier--that wasn't George Harrison type of thing when he was solo. I had to take the bait it was funny.

[@rowbags3017]

Great playing! Great instrument! And REALLY great that you're aiming towards the truly affordable! :) Nicely done on every level.

[@rajgill7576]

Surprised how sitar-like it sounds. If they made one with raises frets to bend the note to high hell by pushing them harder, I'd be all over this.

[@johnnypk1963]

That last chord, anybody?

[@aircav7433]

johnnypk1963 A major with a flat 5th (or sharp 11th)

[@g6120w]

James Bond

How about some toast?

[@tallmn1957]

The Games People Play? Aretha's Chain Of Fools? (Both played by Joe South on his Danelectro electric sitar)

[@HBSuccess]

Actually I like the sound of this better than the Coral - even w/o the drones

[@888Marco]

wow for a second i totaly forgot i watch a video, awesome playing.

[@I.am_Groot]

Dude.. I think my bong water need changing. Cool clip Mr Lemmo..

[@davidbeaulieu1305]

Congrats on the beautiful playing. You display the guitar so much better than… well... a reckless guitar banger always dressed in dirty tones...

[@robgreene1776]

Dig, i'd like to try that with my E-Bow....

[@SuperReverbious]

It's a crime that you didn't pick up the Coral that's sitting there and play it for a comparison, so we could hear that too!

[@tomjohn3364]

Nice demo!!! Great to see you showing the price!!! Great playing nice to hear the guitar and not the amp. Cool KEEP up the good work.

[@evomink]

Up next: Lemmo’s Cello Demo. Dude can play anything!

[@chuckmastrog3561]

Its affordable. What guitar show am I watching ?

[@Miika_Laurila]

i need that, i play guitar and i wanna make progressive rock/metal song. need that

[@theparttimepunk]

Oasis. Nice touch.

[@jimmyv6703]

Cool. It would definitely be fun to tool around with it.

[@RockStarOscarStern634]

How about & I love her by the Beatles? Every Beatles song sounds great on a Sitar Guitar.

[@superkjell]

When you know that Norah Jones' dad is the most famous sitar player in the world, I'd say it looks like regular sitars gets you chicks.

[@pjdanish515]

I know this video is years old but what is that first song he's playing? I can hear those songs in my head but for the love of God can't figure what they are. Please someone save me on this one.😂

[@tasfa10]

It looks like it has a lot of neck dive, no?

[@ivanramos92]

This is definitely the desert level of the video game

[@Little960]

Damn I was waiting for ''Paint it black'' from the Stones

[@edurockforever]

Interesting how you're using your right hand.

[@jackhaugh]

That was pretty cool

[@CatherineMeeson]

Oh my god, I want one

[@exquisitearc8498]

does anyone know that first song he plays? It's so cool.

[@plumiegirl47]

that is an interesting sound. It has a nice whine to it. Thinking old Beatles norwegian wood

[@Rwtheking]

Yep that’s because one of the Beatles was trained in India to play Sitar and decided to bring the instrument into popular western music in that song.

[@thesteelstrummer2307]

Steps to make a regular guitar sound like a citar: 1. by the most cheap/garbage electric guitar of all time! 2. Turn the treble and mids up to 10 and play!!

[@DietzCE]

"We Bhagged the Bhwagan" Amazing demo, short and sweet. No shutouts. Loved it!

[@benjamincoggins6568]

Far out man. That's some psychedelic shit. Nice work.

[@goliathyeti1669]

I would spend 500 on this just to play the intro to dont come around here no more by tom petty

[@greensombrero3641]

standar

[@chrisbrown7175]

I believe scalloped microtonal frets would give it a more Eastern sound; I am considering making a Sitar Guitar I hope it goes well lol

[@akalui007]

How does the baby sitar go against the sitar? Any comparison?

[@akalui007]

"baby sitar gets you chicks, not the regular sitar" okkkkk that clears things up

[@coutnatalia]

Wooowww ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@angryheb1]

Lemmo is incredible

[@melvynobrien6193]

Sounds great!

[@onthe1481]

mel obrien--with that instrument you can contact Satan. Real Talk Lil Mel. Glad to see you're doing better.

[@joseluisalvarado3486]

Can you play chords ?

[@lukefeister4068]

Sweeet jammin dude

[@bPcrazydave]

Not sure if it was the instrument or Lemmo's playing, but I think I preferred the sound of of the Danelectro over the Coral.

[@JeighNeither]

If you don't immediately drop the low E down to D, I think you're missing the point.

[@sebwarren7918]

whats the difference with this and the Coral sitar?

[@sickb2200]

Cool pickings. Never been a fan of that sound though.

[@kerseysguitarukulele1097]

So good dude, hey whats the song at 1;53? or is it original?

[@jjulch]

How much for the Fender Road Worn sign?

[@rebelrevolution22]

nah bruh that regular electric sitar gets babes

[@asamakowski8316]

It’s been nine months since this episode so now the baby is born

Sounds like an electric banjo. Hit it.

[@Leirbag42069]

Does anyone know what the coral ones usually go for?

[@dougiemcclure]

Wonderful playing

Does it use special strings?

Weird...

Very cool!

[@jon.wilson]

Oooohh

[@TheRockyhockey007]

I suppose you could get some Indian chicks with it , it does sound pretty good , and who knew Lemmo could play sitar music , pretty cool , and fun , kinda like having a mandolin in your band.

[@johnnycanosoda]

Lemmo you're a great guitar player but, the only way that thing sounds good is after bong hits bro......

[@OneTwentyOver80]

Vee-in-nYc it's so weird and awesome though

[@guitarocd9984]

After listening to that I think I saw God.

[@Lowerhaightstreet]

Thats weird, I get the same sound with my Les Paul, I think it is because it needs a new nut.

[@jasonteqja7262]

I want it but too expensive

[@iwilliamq2154]

If 500 is too expensive for you well, you’ve only seen mid level guitars including this, mid level guitar.

[@jasonteqja7262]

@@iwilliamq2154 👍

[@LilSirAxolotl]

Yup affordable... But I find them oddly expensive while having so little going on compared to other Danelectro guitars... I can get a baritone for the same price

[@davidmoya8340]

This cat is so cool , I havnt seen a guitar of the day since lemmo put out these vids. Mark just drags on with shout outs and all kinds of other unneeded crap
