This is why I love working at a music store. You get to jam out with people that are basically brethren to you (especially kids). At one point last year there was a little boy who stuck out. He was around 12. Every single day after school he drove his bike down to the store and just looked around. My boss thought he was suspicious and was bothered by his presence. I on the other hand let him roam. He was so pulled in by the Ibanez sr505 in the back at the bass section. I Told him he could play anything he wanted. He just said “I don’t really play”. I asked him his name and he said Christian. But I just call him Chris. I could tell he wasn’t very fond of money. One night I walked up to greet him. I asked “ya like that bass”. He said it would be his dream to have one. I asked him what music he liked. He said all he had were old metallica, korn, and slipknot cd’s. I told him to keep them make sure they stay in hood condition. I was just trying to do the average music store employee small talk. And I saw a grin hit his face for probably the first time. I was clocking out at the back to go home (just me him and 2 other workers in the store). I heard the amp fire up and heard the bass going. I knew it was him. He was very good for someone who had played one other time. I couldn’t help but shed a tear after I closed up shop that night. And last Christmas me and my buddy (another worker) saved our money and bought him that Ibanez. We showed up to his house Christmas Day and he knew who it was for. He just broke down in tears of happiness. Every now and then he’ll come down to the store and play. Just the other day he was rocking some Gojira. He was talking about joining/starting a band and I told him to go for it. Christian. You’ll know who you are. If you’re watching this video and see this comment I want you to know how much of an inspiration you are to the whole store and everyone that works there

Any video I've watched with you is just so raw and relatable. I think that is what made this really hit home; seeing you light up and just fall back into the swing of being 12, a kid in a candy shop. But this time your candy was there. Thanks, Rob. Inspiring to say the least. Hate getting sappy, never really squeeze anything out but I believe I needed this, especially right now. Thanks again.

[@ryanphillips4123]

When he wrote that thank you note, hid it inside the guitar, and put it back up on its hook, I cried. That's what real victory looks like. When you get to the top and all you do is show kindness to those climbing up below you. God I love music. Rob Scallon is the best.

There's something really incredible about this video, I think. You had a dream, and you made it work...and then this is coming back full circle to where it started and really getting to live it. How rare must that be in this world? Really incredible to see!

Absolutely the wrong answer. He passed up on a life time opportunity to to play Robs guitar for Rob. Wouldn’t have mattered if he sucked Rob would have given him a lesson.

“I’m in the key of E.” It’s obvious I should study music theory because I have no idea what that means lol

[@epicdude98]

You’re basically playing E major or any scale that consists of E.

[@Large_Duck]

It means that the guitar is tuned to E standard. Which is the way most guitar are tuned

Rob, I’ve been watching your videos for a long long time, when you first made rain to be exact. And I personally thought it would be the world to have your signature 6 string, so I begged and begged for the guitar all year, and I finally got it for Christmas 2018 and I’ve had it for about 4 months now and it’s my favorite guitar. I’ve even learned rain on your signature! Having this guitar and how nice it plays, even it being your signature guitar is such an honor! Keep up the great work and I’m looking forward to see your channel still in action in the future.

[@kacpermigacz8609]

This is the guitar center I went to all throughout high school. I've been there more than any other music store. I know the guy at 2:07. It's kinda surreal that Rob also went there

[@krisimanasieva422]

Same, I’m freaking out. I would never imagine that he would go to the store I go to. And also I know almost all those employees.

[@Jonen.jpeggy]

It’s awesome. I live in Schaumburg and I go there all the time, seeing him walk inside I freaked the hell out.

[@twins2936]

Lmao yall should meet

[@himbourbanist]

Man did I relate to Rob saying he sat in the guitar store for hours just touching the guitars, never buying anything. Also, it was really nice seeing all the young guitar player kids that were so excited to meet Rob, imagine walking randomly into a guitar store and someone you're a huge fan of is just in there goofing off, super cool.

[@adub8735]

Fourth time ive watched this video where the worker joins in. When he says "you're you" because hes shaking, i begin to sob. This dudes dreams are being made real. The worker is so so talented and as a musician myself i know hes looked up to Rob all his life. Man i cant stop crying. the notes and chords are just so beautiful

[@AdamGoodall91]

Imagine being the person that bought this guitar..........then seeing this video years later only just found out that there was a note inside it??

[@nsc217]

Adam Goodall They’ll most likely take it to a guitar tech to get something done and the tech will just throw it out because most guitar techs are douche bags

[@AAA-bo1uo]

Imagine seeing this video 10 hours after the video was live, and you rush to the store to buy it.. and when you open it there is nothing.. So you go back to the store and they tell you the original was bought 9h ago.. this was in stock. And your not the first to miss it. I'm glad I don't care for guitars... 😂

At the end where he was playing for that second and putting that note on the backplate of the guitar felt so wholesome. This video is wholesome. Also at the end I almost cried because the riff of for that second is so emotional.

[@maxscardanelli6185]

I come for Rob, I stay for Mary Spender!... Great job though and congratulations to you Rob. That must've been such a weirdly cool experience. Also, it was really nice and sweet of you to leave a handwritten note inside your guitar. That stealing your guitar scene at the end was hilariously brilliant too.

I already considered this dude to be the best Music KZbinr out there, and this video reinforces me feelings about it, seems pretty genuine in a lot o stuff here. I imagine it would be pretty cool to be buying strings and all of the sudden getting into a little jam with the guy.

I met 3 followers of my channel out fishing the same day and it was one of the most humbling experiences I've ever had. I was so grateful for their views and I really hope they realized that. To know that I've brightened someone's day just by a simple video that I didn't expect anyone to watch is priceless.
