Shawn Tubbs Is One Of Nashville's Scariest Guitarist (Guitar Stories Ep6)

[@ShawnTubbs]

Thanks so much Robert!

[@JarickL]

Not only is he one of the baddest guitar players, he played on MTV Unplugged with one of my all time favorite bands, Stone Temple Pilots, right when they were rising stars. So cool!

[@rigorhead01]

Really!? I didn't know that! And I've watched all those Mtv Unplugged sessions a million times lol. I'm gonna go watch it right now

[@JarickL]

@ he worked with Robert I think at the Hollywood Mesa store before they were big!

[@ShawnTubbs]

@@JarickL Correct. Robert is a sweet dude!

[@ShawnTubbs]

@@rigorhead01 I went to high school in Huntington Beach Ca. with Scott.

I don’t understand why more guitarists don’t want unique sounding guitars. I have currently have 7 electrics and as a deliberate choice, they each have a completely different sound from all the others. It’s weird to me that so many people will have half a dozen of the exact same type of guitar.

[@markstewart8171]

Yea I'm with you on that they are tools and wants 10 sawzaws, or 10 shovels etc unless you have 3 people using the tools at the same time then you need many of the same tools, even then though with music, you want each of you to have different style guitars so it mixes well.

I have watched Shaun's video's for a while now. The thing i like most about him is he replyed to a comment of mine and i really wasn't expecting it. Very approachable and not an ounce of stuck upedness, if that's a word. From an Ozzie cover/church band guitarist, i respect humility, and he has it in droves. Nice to hear a bit about his guitars, but also his random acts of guitar destruction and forgetfulness etc. Great interview. I do feel that first guitar would be close to having a strat with 3xP90's in it. I have loaded a frankinstrat with JJ's pick up P90 simulcast pickups and they give me this kind of tone but look like normal single coils. Anyway, Thanks for the cool video Robert.

[@eduardoprieto5267]

Finally someone else who admits he plays differently became certain guitars force you to .

[@ShawnTubbs]

As I've gotten older, I appreciate instruments that bring something out of me that I didn't know existed.

[@ChrisJustice]

Shawn is so awesome! Crazy good player and a good dude!

[@martinwidenmusic]

Man I love Shawn's playing

[@seanzinger]

You guys look like brothers. And that Schecter sounds amazing!

[@srhatfield]

Thank you for making this video! It was great hearing his stories and seeing his guitars. His playing is amazing!

[@joehenry9787]

What a lovely guy Shawn Tubbs is - a real gentleman.

[@roscoepcoltrane23]

He’s awesome. Met him at a Big Wreck show in Nashville. Super nice guy.

[@RobertBakerGuitar]

Tubbs is the best :)

[@ShawnTubbs]

That was a killer show!!

[@tymanngruter1808]

He let us all hear what a clean sounded guitar can do! Fantastic guitarslinger! 💥

[@jeremyversusjazz]

total monster. incredible chops aside-easily the most inventive guitar player ive seen out of all the amazing ones i follow from the nashville scene. also, man I used to go in that Mesa Boogie store so many times and just stare at all the beautiful Wood cab boogies and the Tom Anderson’s every time I was in LA visiting family or on business I would go there. I must’ve met shawn at some point tho this was way back in the 90’s-Maybe he was there after me or before me anyhow killer video thank you Robert and thank you shawn. I do have your album by the way- it is awesome.

[@ShawnTubbs]

That's so cool! I was probably lurking about while you were in the shop! Thanks so much for getting that album, it means a lot!

[@killedbycoconuts]

Rob... we need a country course!!!

[@saltpeter7429]

Yes indeed, ditto that.

[@ralph_clay]

It's so cool to hear Tom Anderson's name. I was working at T.A.G. during the time Shawn was at Mesa Boogie Hollywood.

[@ShawnTubbs]

Right on!! Yeah, Tom is an excellent human being. That whole crew is just fantastic.

[@darrelledens237]

That guitar is Sick. It's absolutely sweet sounding Schecter. 🤗🎸

[@srhatfield]

I have a Valley Arts Standard Pro that I got from a music store that I taught guitar at in 1991. Full maple, Seymour Duncan JB HSS. It's a beautiful guitar that plays incredibly well.

[@ShawnTubbs]

Very cool!

[@JimmyGallowayGuitar]

Tubbs is a killer player. Such cool outside ideas

[@aduayer]

I have an 90’s USA Schecter hellcat with original neck and a stop tail. And it’s also the guitar I have longer. I bought it late 90’s and it’s so perfect in so many levels. It has a thing on its own and it’s a keeper just because of it. Happy to see another one around. Used to love the original knobs but mines are gone

[@ShawnTubbs]

There weren't many "new" guitars like that one back in the 90's. It's a keeper for sure.

[@eduardoprieto5267]

Because.

[@skullheadwater9839]

I'm not scared, bring it bro.

[@embreesmith7613]

TUBBS. ,!! 😊😊😊

[@bekindalwaysx1g]

I could listen to #shawntubbs play all day long...especially his "are 80's tones cool again" episode !

[@bradrehn1007]

That Tyler sounded like a Stones tune was going erupt from the pickups!

[@guskalogeros9021]

I learned lots about tone by watching and listening to his videos. Killer player

[@GolecLuka]

Shawn Tubbs, love the guy

[@michaeljoyce3286]

Truly enjoy your channel , the interviews are fire

[@stepitupandgo67]

I hate it when guitarists are exponentially better than me. He's fuckin great. I ran over my guitar once too (hard to admit because that was my only guitar at the time..d'oh)...if it had been a gig bag, nite nite...it broke the case, but the guitar was amazingly unscathed. One of those guitars I should never have sold. Still gets me. I'm hard on my guitar gear

[@RandyLeonard-t1x]

That was great,need a part 2.👍

[@MisterTee]

He doesn’t seem very scary. Seems to be a reasonably pleasant person. Fine player too.

[@ShawnTubbs]

Just don't make any sudden movements!! Haha, thanks so much!

[@chrisquinn9104]

I had a three mini hum Strat in the 90’s. It has Strat pickups in it now

[@georgebaader9817]

Thanks for the video and doing what you do Robert!! Shawn's such a great player and an even nicer human!!!

[@onethousandtwonortheast8848]

Damn, this dude has one hell of a tone! What amps/gear is he using? Consider me a fan!!! great player. thanks for the introduction. Need to deep dive this guys history.

[@ShawnTubbs]

Thanks so much! I think I was using my Tilt Overdrive into a Friedman DS 40.

[@onethousandtwonortheast8848]

@ Thanks, Shawn. Do you have approach advice for a retired pro musician who wants to learn guitar? I was a pianist ( jazz, rock, pop, classical). I want to use my time wisely, but a lot of courses out there for people who don’t know much about theory. I’m kind of lost on where to start. Any help would be appreciated! Love your playing man!

[@Eelbackwards]

Greetings Robert, I would have liked to have seen & heard a bit more of his playing. We all have stories about some of our blunders, or injuries caused to our axes. Thanks for linking Shawn's info. Warm regards and keep rocking! Happy New Year!

[@elbass0]

Shawn is the man.

[@tiagoramalhais5493]

Shawn is one of the most underrated players for sure.

[@ShawnTubbs]

You're very kind. Thank you.

[@arustydodge2111]

Robert, been tuning into Shawn from his beginning. A humble powerhouse genius. Such an incredible player and innovator. Always watch and listen in awe. Would love to see You, and Shawn sit down together, same studio and just let ‘er rip!!! Bouncing off of each other in a power packed jam session! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! 🎄⭐️🎁⭐️🙏

[@Scottiej41]

🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌 Well done once again.🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🎸

[@psofoss]

He is such a wonderful guy and Monster player, but SHAWN WHATS UP WITH THE STRATS??? :D

[@ShawnTubbs]

Man!! What's with the strats?!!!

[@kylekarich]

YES the Valley Artsssssssss

[@RobertBakerGuitar]

Dude its such a cool guitar

[@ShawnTubbs]

Hope you're doing well Kyle!

[@mainstreetmusic4665]

What's happening with Schecter custom shop? They should so make a neck for him, even if it's CNC...............

[@markinthemix6055]

Good video on a great guy. I think he’s just an all around great guy. I wish l could get the chance to meet him.

[@Gabbify-p2p]

🤘🤘🤘

[@officialWWM]

That dude would be pretty good with a little practice 😂 How on earth does he keep those all those guitars in such great condition? Mine always look like they have been through WW3 after 6 months 😂

[@ShawnTubbs]

Haha, I've always been a bit OCD about my guitars.

[@gilguisler2215]

Are those SD mini humbuckers ala Les Paul Deluxe or are they SD mini humbuckers ala Firebird?

[@ShawnTubbs]

Those are more along the lines of a Firebird for sure.

[@Tugguitar]

What amp is he playing….sounds amazing?

[@ShawnTubbs]

I think I was using my Tilt Overdrive into my Friedman DS 40.

[@Superjet113]

Tell me something I dont know... Shawn deserves more subs on his channel, go on over and join! :)

[@ShawnTubbs]

You're very kind, thanks so much!

[@officialWWM]

Shecter Hellcat values just went through the roof 😂 What I find ironic about this video is that he’s wearing a Fender shirt but he has the biggest collection of “non Fender” Fenders I’ve ever seen 😂

[@ShawnTubbs]

I had a Cunetto Relic that I loved. I sold it a long time ago and wish I hadn't.

[@lasyngwieeeiiilarsen7510]

Shawn❤❤❤❤😎🙏🏻🪄

[@jordanprysmiki5361]

Don't know him
