WHICH GUITARS I USE FOR TOURING & STUDIO SESSIONS (AND WHY)

[@SeanHurwitzMusic]

Which is *YOUR* favorite guitar? 🙂

[@vandyman9957]

I must have the DeAngelico...

[@SeanHurwitzMusic]

@@vandyman9957 isn't it such a beautifully smooth sound? Amazing!

[@BradleyStoneV]

I know it's one of my 4 Shabats... :) Probably the custom Lion Avi just made for me for my 50th birthday. Ps.. it's this one. instagram.com/p/CJpO6RBMVuc/

[@SeanHurwitzMusic]

Stunning! 😎🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼 And 4? You win! 🤣😊❤️

[@BradleyStoneV]

@@SeanHurwitzMusic Well, my first is a Friedman prototype (basically a Lion custom with P90s, built by Avi) that I found on Reverb for a steal. Robert Baker showcased his Friedman on his channel so I went looking for one. That was my introduction to Avi as I had to contact him for some stock parts for it as the previous owner kinda mangled it and Friedman said because it was a prototype, they couldn't really help. Even taking the neck off to do some work I found Avi's signature between the body and neck. He verified that was his! :) 2nd was a Lynx Standard (SSS) that I had him make. Such an amazing guitar... Then I found a Lynx Custom (HSS) on Reverb, again for a price I couldn't pass up.. then the latest is the Lion custom that I treated myself to for my 50th birthday (shown in the link above). I'm glad I got them when I did as I know Avi is getting very busy! The last one took almost a year. Thanks for showcasing his amazing work! He is truly a master at his craft!

A beautiful quiver to deliver! I look forward to playing a Maton one day. Good stuff Sean!!

[@SeanHurwitzMusic]

Thank you so much. They are extraordinary guitars! 😀

[@xiao_de_cristal]

OMG the last guitar sounds incredible... I love that guitar ❤️

[@chelsea-abril]

i have an ancient acoustic guitar that my dad bought me in high school and know exactly NOTHING about guitars - this was so interesting!

[@SeanHurwitzMusic]

I think it's time to teach you guitar and you can teach me something on return 😊🙏🏼 Glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for commenting.

[@irahurwitz1864]

Enjoyed alot! Thanx

[@SeanHurwitzMusic]

Thank YOU Aba 🙂

[@juniper-usa-shei369]

Lovely collection, especially the Telecaster. I only have a Mexican Stratocaster and an acoustic Dean at this moment. (It’s like fishing poles...you never can have too many). That Tele sounds great !

[@SeanHurwitzMusic]

Thank you 😊🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@JaniceLalla]

Nice to hear you play! Nice guitars, too!

[@SeanHurwitzMusic]

Thank you very much Janice. Glad you liked it 😀

[@mariamendes22]

Each one is beautiful in its own way (sound) 😊 Like all the stories behind your guitars! 👏🎸🎸🎸

Love the tour! What a great collection!

[@SeanHurwitzMusic]

Thank you very much 😊🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 Glad you enjoyed it.

[@susanmcgraw4751]

Love this....sharing with my guitar friends and more

[@SeanHurwitzMusic]

Awww... THANK YOU ♥️♥️♥️♥️😊

[@HunterWadeMusic]

Omg that Lion is sick. I don't think I understand how much tone is determined by the guitar build and pickups vs the amp and dialing it in. I also have only really played acoustic. I played an electric once or twice and immediately set them down when they didn't play like an acoustic. I'd love to add an electric guitar to my collection (I have a starter in the basement may be in rough shape). I'll look forward to recommendations for a good STARTER electric for a PRO. In other words, I won't suffer intonation issues of toy guitars. 🤘💚

[@SeanHurwitzMusic]

Haha...yeah man. When the time is right, a pro has to get the pro gear. You got dis! 😎

[@HunterWadeMusic]

Got a recommendation for a good electric I can use in the studio for about $500?

[@SeanHurwitzMusic]

Not really man. I haven't been in that range of guitars for a while. 👀😬

[@Dejoblue]

Bro, saw you on Ben Combs stream. You ahve amazing tone! So glad I popped in tonight :) Cheers!

[@SeanHurwitzMusic]

Awwww dude! Thank you so much 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼😊😊😊😊 Don't be a stranger.

[@nixta]

Enjoyed this vid. So interesting to see / hear why different guitars are used for different songs and genres.

[@SeanHurwitzMusic]

Thanks Nicky. Yup. That's why one needs a good amount of them for this stuff. They all have their own character.

[@wildzenventures]

I'm digging the butterscotch! Cool collection 😉

[@SeanHurwitzMusic]

Thank you 😊 I'm glad you enjoyed them. Such wonderful guitars. I'm a lucky dude.

[@joshuafriend2571]

Sean, great video! I love seeing guitar gear!! You are a true pro!

[@SeanHurwitzMusic]

Duuuude! Thank you 🙏🏼🙏🏼😊 I do my best

[@JoshuaBenitezNewOrleans]

I love this video for so many reasons! First, I really feel like I got to know you on this video and I can see why you got hired to play with all of these awesome bands- because you’re such a cool dude. I also find your taste in guitars to be really fantastic! I’ve been so in love with my Gibson for over a decade I haven’t even ever thought about other guitars, yet I REALLY want to play some of those axes! Only thing I would ask is, do they have names? I would love to hear their names. Mine is Mx Gibson, and they do NOT like when I try to name them. I can tell you all about it sometime 😂🤣😆

[@SeanHurwitzMusic]

Hahaha... Well... First off thank you very much. Regarding the names... I actually don't name them. Is that weird? 😳 😊🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@wholefrog]

I am learning so much from you! Thanks.

[@SeanHurwitzMusic]

It's 100% my pleasure 😊

[@AliTheMusic]

Loving this Video! So envious of those guitars!!!

[@SeanHurwitzMusic]

You'll have em all one day mate 😊🙏🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼

Vandy!!! What’s up!!:)

[@vandyman9957]

@@ChristyPaige Cheers! Killing it Christy... what can I do to help?!

[@HunterWadeMusic]

You toured with Gin Blossoms?!?! 🤯🎉

[@SeanHurwitzMusic]

We (Smash Mouth) toured WITH them for a few years during the Under The Sun Tours (2013-2015). I had the pleasure of getting up on stage with them every now and again and playing "Hey Jealousy" 😀kzbin.info/www/bejne/oXy7kqOoa9uDhLs

[@starrkalahiki8649]

oh gods everything sounds so sexy... stunning!

[@SeanHurwitzMusic]

Thank you 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼😊

[@yenneferalvarez7122]

Why did you originally leave smash mouth

[@SeanHurwitzMusic]

Hi Yennefer. I left both times because I had some other opportunities pop up. But I always wanted to come back when the time was right. I'm glad the time came to come back 😊

[@yenneferalvarez7122]

@@SeanHurwitzMusic is there a reason you use tele style instruments for smash mouth when the original guy used a jazzmaster? I just find gear fascinating

[@SeanHurwitzMusic]

No special reason. The way I play, these guitars sound "right" to me for the job 😊
