Hey, just a note to let you know the original electric sitars weren't from the 80s, rather the late 60s. The Coral/Danelectro Electric Sitar was used on several hit records, some just coming into my mind right now, i.e. "Games People Play"- Joe South, "Signed Sealed Delivered"-Stevie Wonder, "Hooked On A Feeling"- B. J. Thomas, "Cry Like A Baby" - The Box Tops, "Come and Get Your Love"-Redbone (early 70s), etc. Sorry if somebody else already posted on this, I just thought it somewhat important to get the facts right about its origin. I don't have a link, but you can google it up and I'm sure there will be plenty of data available as there were plenty of records cut using these unique sounding instruments. Please know you are appreciated! :)

Just go to his page and look at his video. He looks like he hasn't showered in a month, has dinosaur action figures in his room, and can't play the guitar to save his life.

The real sitar is bigger and George Harrison learned how to play it and he did play it in The Beatles' albums from Rubber Soul to The White Album and even during his solo career. Denny Dias play the electric sitar solo in "Do It Again" by Steely Dan and Pat Metheny play the electric sitar in his instrumental song "Last Train Home". By the way, you muted "Norwegian Wood" when it got claimed, despite you did a cover of it.

Tom Petty - “Don’t come around here no more”. Your purchase inspired me. You see I have some guitar necks and a 3D printer. I’ve now found a sitar bridge as the one on your baby sitar, a lipstick pickup, …and hopefully a tailpiece that will work. Now to hit fusion 360 and make me something printable.

One I love is My Little Man by Ozzy, it's a more obscure track from Ozzmosis but when I became a father it gained a lot of meaning to me because it's about Ozzy singing for Jack and how he would do anything for him but won't be there forever

The opening solo on BJ Thomas' Hooked On A Feeling (not the OOGA CHAKA version) is a great electric sitar part. That and the Do It Again solo would make a great "this thing does more than catchy riffs" video. It's also all over Elvis' Stranger In My Own Hometown, played by the same guitarist, Memphis session great Reggie Young. That one's got great licks and fills, just not on a traditional guitar.

Love that you included incubus in this even though it's not necessarily a sitar... Both of those songs popped in my head when I read the title of this video... Along with the Joe Satriani song ... Such a nice sound

I hope things like this are Fun for you dude. I cant image what it must be like as a content creator having to constantly think of new content, and not have it get monotonous and boring at times. This looked like it might have been fun though at least? I know I enjoyed it. I like how simplistic the "GSituar" is, which is probably a good thing. And a Lipstick Pickup, what a great choice for that type of tone/sound. Also, what's with the shaggy look lately dude? Not that I care what you look like bro, lol, you ROCK, I just noticed is all. You growing your hair out while you still can before it starts falling out? lol I miss my long hair days... Man, that was a lifetime ago...

Fun fact Steve Vai gifted the Sitar that Mike Einziger from Incubus used 🤣 Also Mike used an actual Sitar for the song Nowhere Fast on the Make yourself album. You can see him jamming with it on stage with the singer from SOAD and Brandon singing at the same time it's really cool. Has that far eastern sound to it and leads right into Redefine😎

Maybe I'm really freakin old but..."I had too Much to Dream Last Night" by The Electric Prunes was prob one of THE first Top 40 hits to feature a sitar sound...I'm guessing around 1966... AND, it was a really good song...too bad "The Prunes" went on to become THE definition of a "One Hit Wonder"...
