If this video will not be viral, humanity is broken. Martin is legend, love having this experience. All the best, Helen

The headlines and pictures are leading. Neither of these guitars are the one he use to own so this is not “reunited after 20 years.”

@@qinghai1 It's disappointing that after watching this video, the only thing on your mind is that Martin didn't get his guitar that he used to own. This video made so many people cry and feel happiness and joy for Martin, for whom it was so touching. This is not the first comment you have left. Have we disappointed you? Good luck to you that the kind situation that made Martin happy gave you such a strong opinion that needs to be conveyed. Me, and other people personally don’t see “lie” in the headline, because this is what exactly happened. Martin got his childhood memories, tears, happiness and emotions. That was a real reunion. Reunion with small Martin, playing guitar with his father. Good luck.

I was getting a little emotional about it until I realized it wasn’t his childhood guitar. So stop with your grandstanding.

This is such a set of coincidences i almost don't believe it myself. In 2008 I eBayed a load of old music equipment that I no longer used, one of the items was an Arion Stereo Chorus pedal that I purchased in 1985 for £28. One of the first mass produced stereo effects. I had no idea that these pedals have achieved legendary status and today surviving ones grace the pedalboards of many famous guitar players and session musicians. Hence my shock when the bid reached £135 ... I was pleasantly stunned. The guy that bought and collected it turned out to be Mika's guitarist of the time .. a Scottish chap called Martin, he's an absolutely awesome player. He'd been looking for one as he'd had one back in the 80's and knew how good thry sounded. Anyway yesterday I went pedal shopping to GITA at Mansfield as they have a sale on at the moment. Bought 3 pedals. Great guitar and piano shop btw. As we walked in Carol said hey there's your guitar ... I play a vintage Yamaha SG3000s and you very rarely see them .. they are nicknamed "The Les Paul Killer" (and yes they do) i've never seen another metallic black sparkle finish one like mine ever. Sure enough there was one and it was being photgraphed and videod. We went and spoke to the guy and it turned out he'd been looking for one for ages to present as a surprise gift to a friend. Turns out it was to the very same guy I sold the pedal to all those years before. So an old pedal brought us tgetha and a search for a new pedal brought us together again and we both love the same uncommon guitar. The whole story is one of musicians and equipment re-uniting. Utterly bizarre. And here's Martin's own touching re-unification story. Some awesome playing on here.

My best friend in school (god rest his soul) had an SG3000 (huge Carlos Santana fan) which he ended up trading in for a Fender Antigua Stratocaster back in 1977. I think he ended up regretting it too.

Awesome! Brought back so many memories as l was living in Dunoon, on the west coast of Scotland in my teens. I left a guitar on a bus, just like this...managed to run for about half a mile and catch it as it did a loop. Luckily, it was still there 😊 Also Brought back memories of touring the music shops in Glasgow during the mid/late 70s.(our train from Gourock also going through Paisley Gilmour Street) My dad and guitar teacher helping me pick out my first decent guitar, an Antoria Les Paul custom. Replaced in 79 with my first Gibson, a standard in cherry burst. Really enjoyed this video ❤

Great tales ! Aged 17 I couldnt get /afford credit At McCormacks in Glasgow for a Fender and settled for an Antoria Strat from Cuthbertsons in Glasgow where Brian Robertson worked . Played in a band for six months ,one gig at Strathclyde Uni and chucked it and sold it and my HH hundred combo . Didn’t have a guitar for nearly 15 years after that but now have a few . What’s Martins surname ? Lovely guy and helluva player ! Superb video and the Yamaha SGs are amazing . Bill Nelson used one latterly and Stuart Adamson of Big Country/Skids used one too but not the 3000s you see in the video. Cheers 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

I’ve done a lot of researched into Yamaha SG guitars and from my experience when Yamaha took an existing SG model and altered in some way they then added an S to the end of model’s name. For example in the early 80’s Yamaha brought out some new colours for the SG2000 and added push push pots to allow you to split the coils and renamed it the SG2000S. Also in that decade they produced the SG1000s compared to the SG1000 it had a slimmer body and neck, different pickups, tuners and a rosewood fretboard. As for the SG3000 and SG3000S I’ll have to check my notes to see what the difference is.

What a heartbreaking story, both sad and joyous. These guitars really were special. In the eighties it seemed like every popular band in the Netherlands had at least one guitar player who played an SG-3000. Somewhere in the nineties I met a guy who brought about 5 or 6 guitars with him for a gig. All great guitars. I can’t remember what he had exactly, but I’m pretty sure he had a Les Paul Custom and couple of other Gibsons, but also a black Yamaha SG-3000. Of course I recognised the guitar, because I always thought they looked amazing and cool. And as the guitar nerds that we were, I asked him about his SG (I had never played one myself). Then he told me he had two of them, but if he needed to sell all of his guitars bar one, he said he would absolutely keep the black Yamaha he took with him that night. Those guitars were heavy. And probably too heavy for me to feel comfortable with (I have a prosthetic leg, after they had to amputate my right leg below the knee, and I have a hernia 😅), but man, they really were Les Paul killers. And they could be funky too! I know this video was made almost half a year ago, but I just discovered your channel. You have a new subscriber. 😊🧡

Hi there, they were both sought and found as a gift from GITA, the orginal is most likely somewhere in Wales UK. When I look at the one they gave me and play it, it truly feels like I never lost it. I can't thank Stephen and GITA enough x

I could understand if it was the actual guitar he use to own, but it wasn’t. It was just a guitar like the one he had but that he’d never played before. Regardless his guitar playing is magical.
