Why this Guitar Means the World to me

[@rockerbuck967]

When there's a story connected to a guitar, it makes them much more special. I recently got a used 40th anniversary Tele, and I wouldn't trade it for the world!

[@phillippurdy5893]

That's a nice pair of blue knobs. Thanks for the story.🎉

I'm a 51 year old guitar player, and I also still have my first guitar that I started learning to play on. I'll never get rid of it. Your video just made me realize that I haven't played that guitar in over 15 years. Thank you for reminding me of that. The first thing I'm gonna do when I get home tonight is pull that old Epiphone out and play it. Thanks for sharing that history with all of us!

[@peterfindlay2756]

That was a lovely story full of meaning. Thank you for sharing.

[@mikefarquhar5063]

Mimi should open a music shop in Lincoln! ❤❤❤❤ YES!

[@Shredtastic45]

Hearing a story like yours is the best. There's almost always a story to be told for guitars. One of these days I should try out a Telecaster... they always sound amazing. Thanks for sharing!

[@indigosnow_]

It's a beautiful guitar.

[@PaulinaAngel]

So awesome your first electric is a Telecaster, mines is as well, a 1962 blonde reissue from the early 90’s; me dad got it for me as part of my sweet sixteen. I still have it today and it’s a big part of me.

[@richarde3378]

Great story! It was the same for me when I got my first guitar at 14 years old.

[@ravronin1025]

Great Tele. I used to own one exactly like it! Nice video!

[@jimdeavenport9952]

Everyone's first guitar should be a Telecaster. Mine wasn't but when I did FINALLY get my first one,at age 62 and a Made in Mexico as well, I realized what an inspiration they are. Leo Fender truly got it right with the Telecaster right off the bat.

My electronics and computer boffin uncle moved to Torksey in Lincolnshire in 2002, and I used to love going to visit him there. Nice place with lots to see, and I liked going into Stokes cafe in the city centre, the old building with the tudor frontage and overlooking the canal.

[@Juan-y6p6s]

Thank you for sharing these special important memories of your life and guitar. You touched my heart you have a good heart. Blessings continue to shine your light.

I went into my local GC and saw a used black Gibson Les Paul Studio hanging on the wall. I took it down, looked at it, and put it back. A week later I went back to the GC to buy the guitar and was told that it had been sold that very morning. Oh well, I thought, it wasn't meant to be. A week after that, I went back to the GC still looking for my first guitar. And, what do I see? The black guitar that had been returned. It was probably returned because it's all beat up on the back, but it plays great. I guess it was meant to be after all.

Lincoln Cathedral is beautiful!

[@Alaska_Engineer]

I bought my 76 Tele when I was a teen. It had a Mary Kaye finish and was the absolute best playing Tele I’ve ever had but sold it when I got married. I’ve been looking for it for decades!! It has some distinguishing marks so I’ll know it when I see it… but I’ll probably never be able to find it. Hang on to your Tele!!

[@TeleNikon]

Tele sure is a dazzler - both in looks and sound. Prized posession indeed.🎸

[@nizamdoulat6437]

Very nice guitar with stunning gorgeous guitar player 💘💘💘 💕

[@richardvaladez3288]

Always be thankful, and you'll always be happy. Cheers Mia!🙂

[@bhk7777]

Great story! I have many guitars, but recently bought that same Tele used. Just saw it and had to have it.

[@franklinj1038]

A Beautiful Axe! 💎💙

[@Calpaddy-r9d]

[@petertardibuonosr.9035]

Mimi I think you're one of the best blues female guitarist there is!❤❤❤❤❤❤ I have much love for you plus you are a very beautiful woman

[@ManishKumar-mw3sb]

Now you looking like England future queen. Outstanding

[@InopGauge]

Looks like mine. A 2011 MIM Telecaster in Lake Placid blue. My MIA Tele and MIA Stratocasters are very jealous of the amount of time I spend with this guitar. It's my favorite.

[@joshuaanderson5934]

[@mimisounds2843]

😔🤕

[@mattjohnson6916]

Awesome Telecaster with a great story behind it! Cool that you still have it, I wish I had the first electric I owned. Extra cool that you're from Lincoln, UK. I'm a history buff and was just reading about Lincoln recently since the first tanks were developed there by William Fosters & Co during the First World War.

[@davidbaldwin1591]

You are practical, and it makes you beautiful all over.

[@paulfc9290]

Nice story! I have the same guitar but in arctic white.

[@robertparker3580]

awesome video,I know I have my favorite guitars also(sentimental ones)

[@GeorgeNeofotistos]

You my dear, are a delicious piece of sweet candy and talented i might add the only thing i have to say about the guitar is that im jealous of it 😅❤🎉

[@AnimalJohn85]

Its nice to hear of a shop doin right by you. Not been Lincoln in years, fond memories of a little guitar/drum shop there near a concrete bridge (it were some years ago so the name escapes me) and on a proper busy main road. I am going back about 18yrs here though for I am an old fart... If you're looking for a decent shop though and ever in Derby, Hippo Guitars is always a good shout, ever changing stock of primarily preowned goodness, plus Woody n Jess are absolutely wonderful people :) Love the tele me duck, gotta love that twang n quack you get off em :) Serious question... have you ever tried a strat wired with the middle position as the neck n bridge? Sounds pretty close to a tele and adds a whole new level of versatility to the geetar :)

[@juniorguitarheedjunior8491]

Hi Mimi This Guitar Telecaster Is very beautful too much 🎸

[@shingabiss]

He might see this video Mia and feel wonderful about his trust in you!

[@Ryan.Karnegie]

Maple necks & Maples babes

[@jamesenter2095]

Sold my first guitar when it stopped working when all it needed was some solder. I have a Baja tele which is amazing. Also with a good size ding below the control plate. Maybe it’s the nut height? I started doing my own guitar work during the big C and that was easily the easiest thing to screw up/hardest thing to get right.

[@jamesenter2095]

My favorite is a jazzmaster that someone sold to me and said that despite multiple set ups it didn’t play correctly. I did a ton of work on it and it plays amazing now.

[@renraw_daemon]

My first is a lake placid blue Stratocaster from my mom. I've been wanting to buy a telecaster like that for a while. It's hard to find the blue with the maple neck for cheap

[@barkingstarz4730]

Mimi, I have requested you do some Dire Straits. I am re-requesting! PLEASE! Bless you!

[@Okay-George]

i wish everyday i still had my first guitar!!!! grrrrr i should have kept it!!!!!

[@ksharpe10]

You need to go down to Exeter and visit my Favorite KZbin Guitarist, John Nathan Cordy, I bet you might even know Jake Loosemore, he gets around more in the UK. Would be neat to see a video of you with Either of those players.

[@lastingsangma5]

❤

[@sundogaudio851]

@mimisounds i bet your tele would benefit from a compensated nut. fix the intonation in the chords, right up.

[@mansoor3159]

Mimi you have such a wonderful wonderful talent and I really really missed your videos a lot and I am so so glad that I've Found your KZbin Channel May God Bless You Always Always 🥹🥹💗💗

[@itsonlyme9938]

I have a Gibson Studio Les Paul and later on I purchased Mexican strat which is much better sounding and plays a lot better. They are much better value for money.

[@paulpotkowa]

Hey Mimi, wie viele E-Gitarren hast Du wirklich? 5, 10, 20, 25 oder noch mehr ???? Ich habe 8 Stück und meine Freunde sagen, daß das eine Krankheit ist. Gruß aus Miesbach (Bavaria) Paul
