WHY I won't buy a NEW GIBSON.mp4
When it comes to vintage guitars, some people think of player grade as a bad thing, but my definition of player grade means that the guitar has been improved over time.
See and hear my 1965 SG, 1965 ES-335, as well as a few others from my vintage collection. I'll run down the "player grade" upgrades that have been done over time, decreasing the value but increasing the tone, playability, and affordability!

I Got My HOLY GRAIL Guitar.
"here’s a new YouTube video where I play a brand new custom guitar that took PRS 6 months to build!
I got it in return for being part of the PRS online virtual music school that is about to happen again, starting August 9 for four days.
There’s a big roster of great teachers Including myself and Tyler Larson….but the big news is that legendary guitarist John McLaughlin has joined us as a teacher and will be offering his own masterclass."

Part 1: amazing vintage find in Hawaii online auction
AGN's Mark Rivett recently bought a beautiful, early - mid 60s Gretsch G6131, more commonly known as the JET FIREBIRD. In episode one we take a close look at the guitar which has suffered from being in a hot humid environment for many years....in fact, the guitar has been sitting in the (original) case since 1992...!! These guitars are prized and loved by many players and collectors, none more so than the late, great Malcolm Young from ACDC who single-handedly put this particular Gretsch workhorse on the map as a heavy rockin' rhythm machine.

3 ESSENTIAL Guitars.
Tim Pierce, "If you are like me you love to create simple songs on your workstation...
Changing guitars can make a BIG difference. I always loved it when my British friends would say: “different horses for different courses” .
Here I show how my Floyd Rose, PRS and Supro baritone, all add unique colors to a track."
