Sweetwater Showroom Tour

[@fredtirbo4411]

That's the best Sweetwater tour on KZbin. That young woman was a delight. Oh , Baxter did alright there too.

[@solarismoon3046]

Didn't you notice when she kept saying or (mumbling rather) Mm...Hmm? She did that to me one day and I was almost ready to say something about it until I ended the conversation! She can be quite annoying. Most of the guys there are usually pretty cool but their patience level quickly fades if you ask too many questions and don't have much to share. But I've had a few good conversations about things with the salesmen there when I went.

[@TheBbtlegit]

Totally agree she was really cool.

[@solarismoon3046]

@@TheBbtlegit She usually is. I just talked to her Friday afternoon while I was leaving a friend's house for his Birthday. I go there whenever just to see what's new on the market.

[@DaveMcCall]

So glad we got to connect, Baxter! You guys are awesome. Visit again any time. If I'm ever in the NC region, I'll be sure to swing by Casino Guitars.

[@danthegreaser71]

WOW! Sweetwater is awesome! I would love to have a music store like this in my area.

[@michaelahern3006]

That was great.❤

[@shelpais814]

I was there in August. Absolutely fabulous and well worth the trip. We couldn't see the studio because Steve Miller was recording!

[@Euthymia2020]

Baxter is hilarious! “It’s proprietary” 😂

[@Tord79]

When Baxter slides down the slides at the end, it gave me flashback to the video Pink Floyd used in the 90´s when they played shine on you crazy diamond.

[@jamieb7799]

Impressive to say the least. I could see Baxter’s brain moving 100mph with respect & inspiration. Great video for an Aussie where we don’t have anything of that magnitude but still some smaller super cool music stores.

[@johndolce6299]

She’s the best PR person I’ve ever heard.

[@1968joseph1]

These positive videos are fantastic.

[@richarde3378]

Cool video! Thanks for the tour Casino Guitars and Sweetwater. I love the used room!

[@homegrownson]

The Sales engineers hair buzz challenging Baxter for Best Hair, the thing most Shops can learn, is Her attitude was Pleasant, Positive and Uplifting and made it Easy to Spend Time in a Store where you Feel Welcome

[@MrSparks54]

Being a bassist, I'd live in the bass room. Sweetwater has always done me right, bought quite a few bass, amps, accessories etc from them. Thanks for the tour Baxter.

[@davidmcaninch4714]

The drums and percussion room for me, my friend!!!!!

[@JS-hu7pv]

Holy crap. I’ve ordered a decent amount of gear from Sweetwater. If I went to the showroom, I’d be completely overwhelmed. Unreal.

[@curtvona4891]

This girl is awesome!

[@EricsGuitarCorner]

We need a KZbin channel with Baxter and Tamera.

[@lwm4727]

Love that intro 😂

[@nixternal]

All other KZbinr's you are on notice. You can't call yourself an "influencer" when your tours of Sweetwater have mostly been about the boxes of candy. This is without a doubt the best Sweetwater tour I have seen yet.

[@Zane__Stringham]

It’s really great to see Baxter so happy. You deserve all the best in this world man!

[@rogertinker1813]

Baxter I mean this in the most respectful way , I did not realize you were such a social butterfly. I also can't believe how massive sweetwater is thanks

[@Lovell93]

You can tell he is just by the way he acts in his videos lol. I plan to drive out to Casino one day and purchase a guitar from them!

[@johnsmith-ug5tp]

Social awkward is more like it. haha He is still a likable and quirky guy though.

[@grimora-dg3vq]

Love Sweetwater!!! My #1 go to online musical provider! OMG the Pedal Station is an absolutely brilliant idea!!! And she's a Cure fan, sold!

[@gkott78]

Made a trip from metro Detroit out there once and it was so worth it. Met my sales rep Nick, who gave me the tour. That place is incredible. It's borderline overwhelming. I need to schedule another road trip.

[@richardmiller191]

Thank God I live in California, because if I lived anywhere near there I would be maxing out all my credit cards!! Very good video. I wish they had shown more of the electric guitars and amps though.

[@hod8931]

Great place! The salad bar alone is worth the visit.😂 I will get to Casino and buy a CS Fender tele. .

[@ifly65]

Goodbye Guitar Center. Thanks for the cool video.

[@ianchatfield8135]

Baxter has to be one of the most likeable guys on the internet great vid

[@robertbeaman5761]

Been there once. It's a rather impressive place. Need to go back again.

[@mikelord9860]

Alright! The Baxter Road Trip continues! I've only purchased TUSQ parts from them but I was VERY impressed by their follow-up process. I've been eyeballing their used guitars online... That place must be the size of the Mall Of America!

[@chrisstonebraker6319]

COOL SHOW TODAY, BUT EVERY SHOW IS GREAT

[@charlesgillespie5049]

I live about 3 hours drive from this store and took my family there for a day trip. My kids spent so much time on the slide shown at the end. If you are even remotly close to this store it's worth the trip.

[@marknichols3823]

I love Sweetwater. and Casino, of course...😅

[@tomharrington8542]

This was an amazingly helpful video. I only wish I had seen it two weeks ago as I would have made the trip there. What a great place!

[@THEItchybruddah]

“Where’s Baxter!?” is WAY more fun than Waldo’s weak sauce! Always a treat folks. THANK you!

[@sunlightpictures8367]

Great tour, that place looks amazing.

[@finchwilliams9859]

Awesome tour…

[@AshleyOffset]

Awesome tour. It seems they truly couldn't have better staff!

[@fixedgearjerk]

Excellent host! Would love to just wander around there.

[@jackstow8411]

That place is amazing!!

[@greyseal53]

Love this video...! Having been down to Casino and talked with Baxter, I know that they are focused on the local NC guitar community and I do try to patronize my local shops for gear and service. That said, I do love dealing with Sweetwater. My sales guy (hey Matt!) has done right by me on several occasions where they had gear that no one locally could get (or sometimes hadn't ever heard of). I have family in the area so I try to make sure to schedule a day at the store whenever I'm in the area and would like to try to make it to Gear Fest at least once. The biggest shock for me on my first visit apart from the size of the retail area were the other shops adjacent to the retail store (cafeteria, hair salon, etc.). The rationale was so that staff wouldn't have to drive into Ft. Wayne to shop or get lunch. Will be stopping by in two weeks when I go visit my brother...

[@CindyMattern]

Love Sweetwater and you guys too! You are my go to’s .

[@fretted]

I'm pretty sure I paid for that facility 🙂 I would love to visit the place I send all my money to sometime! Thanks Baxter for the virtual tour! Tamera was awesome!

[@markfitzurka9995]

Great walkthrough

[@hotcakesman]

I have the Alesis Nitro kit and I love it!

[@georgespencer3973]

That was very cool, Baxter.

[@grg-mpgmusic7247]

You went mono on me. Oh, SNAP! ..CLASSIC! 23:00

[@ericwarrington6650]

Right on Baxter 🤘😜🤘🎸.this is far and away the absolute best tour of Sweetwater ever.. what a fantastic host Sweetwater has to represent that castle of music! Top notch work from all of you guys. I can't wait to see it for myself ❤️🙏

[@johnsmith-ug5tp]

If I lived within an hour of Sweetwater I would be there all the time trying out guitars and amps. Where I currently live it's 3+ hours one way to an actual guitar store.

[@indigosnow_]

An old Gregg reference. Let's go!

[@b00dge]

Hope you make it to the Indiana Guitar Show this weekend, since you’re in the area!

[@MeekSith777]

Great video Baxter!

[@steveweiskopf2129]

Spent a couple of hours there once. Five or six guys were trying out crank each other. It sounded like a really bad Pantera tribute festival. Left with migraine and vowed to go small independent stores from that point forward. To each their own

[@MichaelStephenson51]

22:30 I bought that ringligt for my daughters WFH setup (from Sweetwater). The ring light was the only thing out of that room I can afford :)

[@davidmcaninch4714]

Wait. Sweetwater has a distribution center in Phoenix, Arizona?

[@mikewendeln5218]

I was there for the first time a couple of weeks ago. Amazing place. Huge campus.

[@LexingtonDaniel]

I visited the Sunday before their Monday Grand Opening of the new showroom... It's an amazing place!

[@contrabandjoe7974]

Impressive

[@lyleanderson5407]

May never make it there but online works for me!

[@jarmentor1731]

There's more than one Lefty sunburst Mexican tele! I may have to go visit, now.

[@curtvona4891]

I bought 3 guitars and an amp from Sweetwater. Great people. Shout out to Charlie.

[@davidsummerville351]

Enjoying Baxter's road trip.

[@davidreidy5750]

I would need several days to go through that facility.The keyboard section, especially if theres a Rhodes or Arp2600 reissue there.Day two would be in the mixing section,I would have to be airlifted out of there just from going mental 😆🗽♥️

[@gregrandallbtsr03]

Like Sweetwater. Love Casino!

Fantastic video and the young women was very cool!

I like your hostess hair style, like a mullet is business in the front and party in the back, hers is like introduce to your mom on the left and Thunder Dome road warrior on the right.

What’s Tim Burton doing at Sweetwater, anyway??

Ha dude does look like Tom Verlaine of Television 😆🗽♥️

"An attractive Geddy Lee" ha

Like an attractive Geddy Lee. ON. THE. FLOOR. LAUGHING.

[@surinderpunia2804]

Is the Sweetwater shop bigger than all of Southern Pines? 😀

[@titanuranus]

They probably have better parking. AHEM.

[@solarismoon3046]

@@titanuranus Their parking lot is every bit as big as the store. You can see lines where they kept building and adding on over the years as the company grew.

[@manyvibes1540]

Slide!👍

[@YakBoss]

I need a credit card and 10-15 days for a deep dive. Then another few days to catch my breath.

[@davidhite1597]

Hey Baxter, what is the pedal that that you pointed to and said "everyone in our shop has one of these" ?

[@DaveMcCall]

That's a JHS Color Box V2 preamp pedal. It takes a lot of the tonal shaping and circuitry from a Neve style console and puts it in a pedal (including a pretty cool transformer). It works for guitars or microphones (full mic preamp circuit inside). It's combi-jack input accepts mic/line/instrument sources. It's also a direct box, so it has a balanced XLR out. Pretty cool pedal. No wonder it's popular.

[@davidhite1597]

Thank you Dave!@@DaveMcCall

[@jamesonpace726]

I was gonna buy from Casino, but now I think I'll go with Sweetwater. For the sticker, yknow....

[@larryfouch6113]

I’ve been to both. I prefer Casino!

[@mojo6778]

Baxter is definitely a kid in the candy store at any music store. 🤣

[@ryanjohnston3594]

For the first time Baxter doesn't have the craziest hair in the room.

[@johnsmith-ug5tp]

They would make a cute couple. Or better yet, Father and daughter team.

[@Bob-Whiting]

@Baxter Oh My Gawd Baxter, all that and not one Orange Gretsch?! WTF man, are you mad?! JK, lol Thanks for this, just amazing.

[@jayrific]

How tall is Baxter. He looks mini next to Jonathan. And giant next to her.

[@solarismoon3046]

He's the same height that I am - 5'8. I don't stand any taller than he does but she's short to some children that come in there when I visit on the weekends. I live fifteen minutes from there.

[@johnsmith-ug5tp]

I'm going to say between 5'10" and 6'.

[@ldenskyify]

What was the name of the pedal that you said everyone has.

[@DaveMcCall]

JHS Color Box V2 preamp pedal.

[@shanewalton8888]

First time I saw a video where Baxter had the better haircut.

[@jenS-vn2dw]

Oh, I know I could spends hours here and not want to leave lol

[@thelastnic]

Wow, their showroom is so similar to Casino Guitars with Johnny instead of Camera

[@cortmiller]

Did Baxter just get birthed by the Sweetwater logo?

[@joshuasaylor3783]

Brian wampler!!!

[@larryzink8978]

The fun is over, boy, its glaringly obvious that it was all about Johnathon. Baxter is too desperate, J's happy apathy was perfect. The family dog has run away.

It used to be 55 point inspection, now it's 40? I think Baxter's like the Robert Smith lost his money vibes, lol.

She misspoke.

[@mikebaker698]

I spend way too much time in that used gear section.

If I knew you were in Indy I would have bought you dinner

[@user-no1cares]

Do I need to feel great shame for buying a guitar from Sweetwater? It was set up right, right out of the box.

It might be that this video will drive viewers to buy from Sweetwater instead of Casino…
