The ONLY Nita Strauss chat that matters (to Andrew & Ryan)

Find Nita's Guitar - Jiva here:

I sit down with Ryan Burke from 60 Cycle Hum and Nita Strauss. The 20 minute interview soon got out of hand so here it is unedited. We have a clapping competition, we talk about Nita's new signature guitar and we make dad jokes.
Thank-you Nita and Ryan for your time and your friendship.

Andrew seriously... as you know we are on tour with Evanescence right now in the states, tour is going strong and awesome, but those hotel rooms on off days can make you feel really lonely... so every now and then I would put on some interviews with friends on youtube, to have a bit of company in the room and I MUST SAY: Jeeeeeeees, I love this video! hahahahaha I probably look like a psychopath sitting in my hotel room all by myself and laughing insanely! GOOD ONE! Definitely good company hanging out with you guys! And all the best in the world to Nita, I luv that girl!

[@TheGuitarGeek]

Hey Jen. I've been keeping up with your instagram stories. The tour looks amazing fun. I hope you're taking care of yourself and thanks for being a great mate. Ryan, Nita and I had TOO much fun here

[@TheGuitarGeek]

Nita FREEEEEAKIN' Strauss (And Ryan)

[@CorbCorbin]

TheGuitarGeek 😜......(and ryan) 😂 Ryan is great, but.....well.....

[@TheGuitarGeek]

I think its fairly equal...

[@TheGuitarGeek]

Thank you so much. I love talking with people TGU18 gave me the opportunity to advance that

[@razorgem555to666]

is that her middle name

[@TheGuitarGeek]

Only she can confirm that

[@TroyNaumu808]

When I was working at the Star Trek Experience 15-20 years or so ago at the Las Vegas Hilton Mr. Alice Cooper went into my store and bought something ... i forget what it was ... I think it was for one of his kids maybe. Mr Alice Cooper was such a pleasant, nice guy. It was so cool meeting him.

[@apeekaboo]

Best Nita interview ever! This is a really relaxed and fun hang out. Great job, all of you!

[@TheGuitarGeek]

Thanks. We had a great time

[@stevenkooij5585]

[@StudioChimiel]

Confirmed, the Guitar Geek has The Clap!

[@TheGuitarGeek]

It's been suspected for a while. Nice to finally be tested

[@PsyloOfficial]

Pffft ITS NOT TRUE... in order for that to be true... that would mean he got some sex. AINT NO BODY GONNA FUCK THAT FUCKING BIG EAR NERD!!! NO ONE~... NOT EVEN THE HOOKERS>>>>> NOOOOOOOOOO ONE..

[@CorbCorbin]

This vid turned me on to your channel. Really cool, finding new stuff from these meet ups.

[@TheGuitarGeek]

That's great! Welcome to my channel

[@timfletch]

So fun, wasnt the standard clinic speech, loved it!!

[@TheGuitarGeek]

Glad to hear it!

[@ruiseartalcorn]

What fun! Great stuff! :)

[@TheGuitarGeek]

It really was fun

[@ruiseartalcorn]

It certainly looked it! :)

[@rtabor5808]

Great interview.

[@TheGuitarGeek]

Thankyou

[@Randystites66207]

I saw Nita with Alice Cooper and I will tell you, she is a MUST see play. There are not words I can say that will justify how GREAT she really is. Thanks NITA and GuitarGeek for this interview!!!

[@antonwilding9744]

i agree , i saw her at Wacken Open Air by coincidance , i was waiting for Amon Amarth and Alice Cooper played on the stage next to it . I´m more into Death and Thrash metal , well now i´m saveing up for the Jiva lol

[@benmaguire4098]

it's so easy to love & admire Nita .. she is so cool ..

[@TheGuitarGeek]

She was great to hang out with

[@davidstock2713]

Consider it done with nita" once she concludes her thoughts towards goals, it's begun, then done. Natural sence of humor, also adventures, consistently polite/nice, even after 120-minutes playing live. I've attended/viewed her twice, phenominal and wouldn't have to think twice to attend again. Writer, also designer within her own guitars, with a pretty voice as well.

[@robblair3703]

Great video

[@TheGuitarGeek]

Cheers rob

[@schnaps54]

Awesome interview,another cooler from TGU18! Nita is pretty outside and beautiful inside! Thank you very much.

[@TheGuitarGeek]

Cheers! I can say the same about Ryan

[@schnaps54]

Uuuuh...yes but...I still prefer Nita's knees...the bearded ones don't attract me more than that....LOL

[@TheGuitarGeek]

Ryan will find that VERY upsetting

[@jayleal5061]

u go hurricane

[@BernardBetelgeuse]

Regarding if you have a family -- Nita you have it right but it's right for males too. Male or Female or other, be there for your child. Any doubters should listen to Harry Chapin's Cat's in the Cradle. Not shred, but is still a killer song.

[@erichearrell3224]

oo mm ggg that vid wasssss ssssiiiccckk love it to deeeeeeth

[@TheGuitarGeek]

Thaaaaaaaaaaaankkkkkkkkkk yyyyytooooooouuuuuu

[@jasonbone5121]

Way to go Mexico! Hilarious story.

[@TheGuitarGeek]

Cheers Jason!

[@coolvibesradio3267]

you should make a clap challange with a db counter

[@TheGuitarGeek]

That sounds like an AMAZING idea!

[@fordprefect7572]

The guitar is actually called Jiva, not Giva. Cool video by the way.

[@TheGuitarGeek]

Thanks!!! Just corrected it

[@brandonio_granger]

Andy McCoy of Hanoi Rocks 🖒

[@TheGuitarGeek]

Yes he does

[@OpTiCOraNgE1]

les paul junior kit?

[@TheGuitarGeek]

Yes! 😉

[@panosskentzos]

"to Andrew & Ryan" Is that a coincidence or what? Sorry, too much Bioshock, anyways, great video!

[@TheGuitarGeek]

I don't get it....

[@panosskentzos]

TheGuitarGeek well, it's a BioShock reference (videogame), there's a character actually named Andrew Ryan, I just couldn't help myself :p Anyways, very nice and informative stuff as always!

[@TheGuitarGeek]

Cheers! I didn't know that

[@stevesnider6817]

This is a channel? For real?

[@Mark-OutWest]

Hmm that color guitar isn't offered yet. I'd rather see it in the purple one she plays.

[@TheGuitarGeek]

Im sure ibanez will offer it if it's requested enough

[@jay_thedog_man5169]

I’ve got a dad pick up line. Hey there, do you like little kids? Because I’ve got them..... I didn’t say it was good. Honestly I thought it was better before I read it. Now I feel a little embarrassed haha

[@jay_thedog_man5169]

TheGuitarGeek haha I’ll drill the joke into my son so he’ll learn the dad way 😁

[@TheGuitarGeek]

That's the spirit

[@guitarlusteuphoria4507]

Fringe benefit eh, Andrew? Nita Strauss! You lucky dog.

[@TheGuitarGeek]

It was great to meet her. I'm sure she's saying the same thing about Ryan and me

[@rgerard5083]

TheGuitarGeek Whaa haaa haaa. Oh yes, she seemed entranced. It was your big clap that did the trick.

[@TheGuitarGeek]

It's a very big clap

[@edryba4867]

Nita sits there with these two bozos for nearly an hour… and SHE feels insignifican’t?! SHE is the one with the signature ax, boys. At 5’9”, Nita reminds me of my wife - long hair, SIX FEET TALL and GORGEOUS - and both women excel at knowing how to fill a pair of jeans! I wish my lovely lady played guitar… instead she’s going for her FOURTH college degree, which is pretty damned impressive!

[@TheGuitarGeek]

What is really impressive is your voice acting

[@edryba4867]

@@TheGuitarGeek …And you can really tell how good I am at that by READING TEXT ONLINE.

[@rodneylaws9480]

first i love nita but hey all guitars are female how else do you explain the curves and the jack

[@brandonio_granger]

Damn it Ryan why didn't you set her straight when she related surf music with the Beach Boys ??? ( Double Facepalm ) Nina if you're reading this ,surf music is instrumental music prime examplees Dick Dale, Man Or Astro-Man?,The Madeira Satan's Pilgrims, The Bomboras etc.

[@TheGuitarGeek]

Glad we got that straight!

[@60CycleHumcast]

I didn't want to make a big deal about it.

[@Josbornevonosborne]

Marry me Nita...

[@TheGuitarGeek]

I've heard that the most successful way to propose is through a youtube comment. Can i please come to the wedding?

[@PlatinumBlack90038]

‘Because of your gender ’ ― yet another misuse of that term. Nita should have said: Because of your sex. And furthermore; strap locks are obsolete.

[@TheGuitarGeek]

Glad we got that sorted

[@Iggytommy]

i wonder whether she needs as much make up as she wears. she wears too much

[@TheGuitarGeek]

We're talking about Ryan here aren't we?

[@Iggytommy]

Ryan needs more foundation

[@TheGuitarGeek]

I'll mention it

[@MisterGuitarItalia]

For an American, that's light "day-wear"...

[@60CycleHumcast]

TheTRUTH it takes a lot of product to be the perfect combination of pink and pale.
