When I first wanted a Tele the first person my Dad said I needed to check out was Vince Gill. Fast forward 18 years getting to talk to Vince about his Tele is a real honor for me.

[@colbyjack7074]

Vince: Genuine, sincere, humble, kind, funny and shy. Love Vince.

[@Rixster53]

@colbyjack7404 AND… guess it goes without saying a monster guitar player! Saw vid of a very young Vince sharing a talk show, then playing with Chet Atkins, was very cool…

[@schtepke]

just a wonderful human beeing

[@drop830]

I love Vince Gill, I'm not even a country guy, I'm more of a rock metal guy, but I saw Vince play on some morning show years back, and he amazed me. I've been a fan since. He's an American treasure

[@PhillipHolt-f9r]

Vince is probably thinking when is this overnight

[@dlmyrs]

First time I really saw Vince he was cutting heads against Chet Atkins and he was so damn amazing. He still got showed up by Chet though!

[@iamanovercomer3253]

Back in the day, Vince played with Pure Pierre League

[@thesjkexperience]

Isn’t it great when somebody just breaks through the normal noise and makes you feel guitar in such a special way. 🎉

[@terryfonz4603]

Well he’s touring with the Eagles so he’s playing rock currently and you can see him live. We went in New Orleans what a great show!

[@SimpleManGuitars1973]

I have always been a huge Vince Gill fan and had always thought he seemed like the most humble guy ever. So back a few months ago at the Amigo Guitar Show in Nashville I was talking to a dealer at his booth about this $45,000 vintage Tele he had and we were having a great conversation. When all of a sudden I feel somebody bump into me and I turn around to see what had happened and I look up and there is this huge dude standing right next to me and I go "HOLY CRAP!" and he laughs and goes "Yep... holy crap" and it was VINCE! I told him how I had always loved his music and he took a pic with me and chatted with me about this old 56 Strat that another dealer had brought there for him to try. He played it and then let me play it and told them he was going to pass on it but told me I should buy it and we just stood there and talked shop for probably 5 to 10 minutes and he's honestly just a nerd at heart like the rest of us. I told him if I bought that guitar my wife would divorce me and he said "you gotta learn to not tell your wife everything". LOL! He's SUCH a great dude! He said he even takes all his expensive vintage gear on the road with him and everything. He plays the stuff and doesn't just "collect" it. I'm sure your experience with him was the same as mine. What an absolutely great player and even greater person he truly is!

[@Sellarmusic]

Wow what a great experience that must have been! I'll followed him for decades but never had the pleasure of meeting him. I've always pictured him as a humble guy you could talk guitars with all day.

[@kennyg63]

Got to say Hi to him the Bay Hill golf tournament many years ago. He was as nice as could be.

[@guitarplayer5932]

fender needs to make a vince gill model guitar based on this one, Vince is my fav country guitar player hes so smooth, creative, melodic and technical at the same time

[@kimrileymusic]

Yes!

[@edgewound]

I believe he's turned down a signature offer.

[@guitarplayer5932]

@@edgewound they should just make one anyway, call it the gince vill model lol

[@shahwhaever]

This genuinely made me laugh out loud haha

[@shahwhaever]

He did turn it down. They were working on a signature Strat at one point, but the project was abandoned and the prototype was destroyed in the Nashville flood.

[@evalex71]

Love Vince Gill. Saw him with the Eagles twice and both his voice and guitar playing moved me to tears, it was so beautiful

[@KevinDick-h6f]

Only a few players could have been acceptable for the Eagles to complement their music . Vince Gill filled that gap so well for the Eagles.

[@lucabrasi5070]

Vince is a national treasure. One of those guys that you’d just love to hang out with

[@maximusretrievers]

Vince talked to me and my girlfriend at the Ryman like we were neighbors at the mailbox. Humble, kind, friendly. We were there for a self-guided tour. The box office said we had to go fast and be out by noon before the Vince Gill/Amy Grant Christmas show. As we went to the mic stand for our photo, Vince walked by carrying his Gruhn Versitar acoustic. He smiled and said hello to us. I asked what that unique-looking guitar was. He talked about the instrument and what a great friend George Gruhn has been to him over the years. It was my 60th birthday and it was a wonderful moment.

I don't think you will find another guy that is such a monster musician and guitarist that is that regular and that grounded. Speaks volumes of his character. In a business that is VERY narcissistic. At least not many of them.

[@c.e.anderson558]

He has guitars like most people have clothes . Have shitloads and use just a fraction. But he's a legend .. I bet he has a guitar he's only played once.

[@Scottiej41]

He is right up there with ALL of the greats. Vine Gill, Steve Wariner, Roy Clark, Jerry Reed, Brad Paisley, so many of the New and Old country music guys that are such BEAST guitar players. Loved this video.

[@Wadey1960CS]

My father ALWAYS, I Mean ALWAYS told me from the age of my teens when I got into guitar and music that If I ever got as good as Vince Gill I know how to play. He LOVED Vince’s playing and thought he was the best total package in his heart. Great watch Robert, thank you and Vince for taking the time to share with us 🙏🏻❤️ Brought back some sweet memories.

[@misterknightowlandco]

I can’t believe you got an interview with Vince. That’s so cool. He’s a legend indeed. Sings even better that he picks too.

[@usagi2988]

@16:47 - 19:23 is some solid advice on how to approach soloing ("Soloing is telling a story just as important as the song you're singing"). Like a few others have also related, I'm not much of a Country guy (more rock/metal), but I've always had the utmost respect for Vince Gill (singing, songwriting, and guitar pickin')... I'm pretty good at "keeping my powder dry," but I always lose it whenever I see him perform "Go Rest High On That Mountain" for the George Jones memorial at the Opry (in 2013).

[@joe19912]

Yes, sage advice from a master. To paraphrase of an old quote, "Silence is the canvas on which musicians paint". IE; do more with less.

[@rayleather8005]

Vince Gill simply the best, I love the way he explains the simple ( for him) way he breaks down any song / tune into only playing the right notes, never too many or too few just perfect every time, Vince you are the man

[@SEGREDOSPROIBIDOS1]

Vince turned down an invitation to join Dire Straits because he knew he was gonna have his break through. Now that’s some serious confidence. Been a fan forever. A true legend.

[@scottwheeler2494]

Damn what an album they could have made in the mid 80's.

[@alancrandall1325]

Vince has always been a class act and never tried to be more than he was,just a simple down to earth guy,that happens to love music,and can sing ,play and write with the best of them!

[@lindaturnerjordan5684]

First Class and a true Master of his trade!

[@gtr1952]

I think I'm a couple years older. I just have all the respect in the world for Vince! I've heard him tell stories and they are just hilarious! When I was a kid I had some friends that had a family band. They were determined to make me a guitar player. Couple months I learned all my cowboy chords and I could change them pretty good. Then they lost the rhythm player in the band, they were determined all along to make me the rhythm player. That day I needed an amp, I was starting my first gig the next night! I had bought a Gibson ES325 (yes 25, google it). Being 1969, I saw an ad for a Fender amp on a bulletin board at the market. So we called, and went to buy it. It was a mint Fender Twin, w/JBL's owned by a steel player. I bought it for $200, it was like new!! I never plugged it in, and showed up the next night with it. The bar we were playing sat 50 people, 75 was a crowd. Due to lack of space here, picture this. I set my new amp on a chair, plugged everything in, turned it on standby. Got my guitar on, turned it up, turned the amp up to 8, then took it off standby and hit a G chord about as hard as I could!! If you know, your laughing loud right now. For non players, a '68 Twin is 80 crazy loud watts, and JBL speakers with huge magnets make it louder yet!! I think it about blew the roof off that little beer joint, scared the crap out of everyone, including me, and all my buddies that knew what was going to happen were rolling on the floor laughing!! That was 55 years ago, and still the loudest amp I ever heard!! If your still reading this thanks! I've really enjoyed playing bars in NY and Pa for the last 55 years!! God Bless and Peace --gary (aka BFG).

[@versnellingspookie]

Vince is an absolute treasure. This is what I wish television was growing up. The sweet part of the internet era. 🙏🏼

[@commontater8630]

I haven't met Vince Gill and probably never will, but every time I hear him, whether his it's music or a conversation like this one, all I can think is What a sweetheart, what a great guy. Wonderful job here by the interviewer too.

[@michaelallen434]

Vince is amazing. Such a killer on guitar but so down to earth. I’m not a country fan but I’ve seen him live and he blew me away. Not to mention his voice! So glad you captured this for us.

[@randybrown7023]

I saw Vince live at a small venue in Branson Mo. second row right in front of him. Hell of a show! I liked him way back when he was in Pure Prarie League.

[@davidharder7512]

One of my all-time favorites of Vince is his solo on "How Great thou Art" that he played with Carrie Underwood. As awesome of a singer that Carrie is, he absolutely stole the show. She may have been the singer, but his "voice" (guitar solo) in that performance was epic. An absolute show stopper. It will bring tears to your eyes. Anyone that hasn't heard that performance needs to stop what they're doing, right now, and pull it up on KZbin. Powerful, is an understatement.

[@quickdeuce]

Thank you for getting together with the the ever incredible writer, guitarist, performer Vince ("Sweet Pea" Little Jimmy Dickens called him) Gill. Like many of you who were lucky enough to not only see Vince live in an auditorium but to see him in an off stage environment. My Wife and I in the mid 1980's got tickets to see Vince, George Jones and Conway Twitty in Tri Cities, Wa. We got a room near the venue the night before, checked in around 10pm, got settled then went to the motel bar for a drink. Much to our absolute surprise and joy guess who was just kick'n back with THIS guitar on his knee singing and playing for those few of us - about 20 - who were in the bar that night. No,, he wasn't being paid and NO,, he wasn't drinking alcohol,,, apparently he was staying at the same (mid price range - under $200 a night - which for the time was a middle of the road price) motel. He played and sang for about 45 or so minutes, finished his ice tea, signed some autographs, shook a lot of hands and returned to his room. My Wife and I as well as all those in that small bar (50 or 60 capacity) were fans even before that night thanks to MTV but what we witnessed the next nights concert made us forever fans of Vince, GEORGE and CONWAY. Before that concert we weren't too excited to see George and Conway,, Vince was who we were there to see and hear BUT after seeing and hearing them LIVE we learned something,, entertainers once seen live are so much different than in a video. We discovered why George Jones and Conway Twitty were so HUGE in their prime,, the concert was incredible.

[@chuckbouscaren3898]

"You already look too loud." That cracked me up. Thanks Robert and Vince for making this sit down happen. Vince is a really kind and gracious host and it's super cool that he did this with you Robert!

So inspiring…in the 80s and 90s…I was a hair band, metal head guy…but my musical tastes evolved. I love me some country never ever learned much about Vince’s songs but was always aware of his mastery of the instrument. This was an inspiring video…and what a great human…it was like two guitar nerds just hanging out…no big stardom or anything. I am a fan of his wife and I have now committed to mine to see them at the Ryman this year!

[@PhillyDog-ej2yw]

Terrific interview - Vince is so great! I happened to be at a church service that Vince and Amy also attended, right after the flood in 2020. Like a lot of Nashville guitarists, he lost a lot of instruments that were stored at Soundcheck (right next to the Cumberland river). I told him I was very sorry about that and asked if his white Telecaster was one the guitars destroyed by the flood. He replied, "No. It didn't get my baby".

[@caleshtcincredibles]

As smooth and effortless as Mark Knopfler, but in his own distinctive style. I knew him by the occasional country song befor but he got instant respect as a solid soloing guitarist right then. Very nice interview. He seemed as gracious and genuine as many others have opined. Imagine getting Vince and another big time guitar nerd like Joe Bonamassa together for a chat, would probably go on for days.

Had to drop a comment on this one. I discovered Vince at the 2004 Crossroads in Dallas, I was really floored by this guys playing, it's not fair, he already sings like a bird but he's a real axe slinger, real deal virtuoso. I read up on him after that and he was talking in an article about being a kid playing rock n roll guitar and learning all the parts to Ramble On on Zeppelin II. I was sold and have followed him ever since, he's the real deal and a top notch person to boot. I'll always be a fan, thanks for this Robert, keep it up with the Guitar Stories, a great series!

I got to hang out with Vince on his first tour on MCA records in CA. He was saying that he wasn't big on changing electric guitar strings frequently. He also was wearing the same cowboy boots he had since high school days. A very 'old school ' sensibility and a very gracious man, very appreciative of his public.

[@Eelbackwards]

Music runs deep in my family who played, and sang at and around Renfro Valley Kentucky. How can we not know the name Vince Gill! One of the most appealing things about Vince is that he is down to earth, and grateful for his success. He seems like a pretty nice guy, and likes to laugh. Not only is he an amazing lyricist, immediately recognizable vocalist, talented and developed player, but he also admits to not painting himself into one particular category of music - the sign of a true music fan. So, all the best to him on his ongoing success whether flying solo, with the Eagles, or something else. Nice interview Robert, and don't be afraid to ask for a few pictures with some of your musical heroes and their axes. Most of them will surely agree. They have heroes too! It would have been neat to have an outro of you on video playing that famous Tele. Make full use of those opportunities. Rock on brother!

Great interview with an amazing talent Vince Gill! I saw him at Country Thunder in Wisconsin back in the early 90’s.

Quite a few years back Vince was to appear at the Walworth County fair here in Wisconsin. We got there early. No admission and you could put a lawn chair on the track in front of the stage. Vince came out in running shorts and a T-shirt to do a sound check and ended up entertaining us for about 45 minutes. Awesome! Later we came back to our seats and enjoyed several hours of great music. Burlington Bill busking on the road and here on you tube.

Seems like one of the nicest guys in music. Such a talented writer, singer, and player. Wish I had half his natural talent at anything.

Love to see his guitar collection. Looks amazing .Loved when Vince along with Darryl Hall, Amy Grant, Joe Walsh and other musicians played at his home. Very relaxed, he was wearing shorts, just complete comfort. They were singing naming songs and just playing, singing harmonies. Someone was going to play acoustic and asked if Vince had a specific model and he just went and grabbed one from the wall and the music continued.

That’s one thing I’ll always say he was born with one in his hands he has a natural ability to do it he has his own sounds . I listened to him way back and didn’t even know who he was I saw a video the other day of a band from back in the seventy’s mid to late and there he was on stage playing guitar don’t even remember what band it was but I listened to them back then .

Love VG and am so impressed with how generous he is with his time.

I saw the Eagles recently and has the pleasure of sitting right in front of Vince - amazing player - he stood out among the Eagles. Impactful.

This is such a great video! Vince’s details regarding His Personal History of Each Guitar is too damn Cool!!💕

[@mikewolfe9458]

Man, what a legend. I’ve had the pleasure of seeing him live on his own tour and playing for the eagles. Thank you both for making and sharing this. He mentioned Brad Paisley, and that’s another guy I’d love to see on this series talking about his career and his guitars.

Hope to have him on soon :)

Amazing musician and seems like an even more amazing person. His playing is incredible. The voice to go along with it....beyond anything. Dang!!!!

I love the way that Vince Gill plays guitar and sings which reminds me, I've got to get some albums!

[@bloozedaddy]

He really is a great blues player. My band opened for him in the mid-80s at a small outdoor festival in PA and is already known about him from his PPL days. Always has monster tones

[@dr.buzzvonjellar8862]

His touch is so sweet. Thank you Vince!
