Fender American Professional II Telecaster Deluxe American Pro II Tele vs. Gibson Les Paul.

Cooper is back to run down one of his favorite guitars of late! Today he's taking a look at the Fender Tele Deluxe in the American Pro II line, and comparing it to the regular (single coil) Telecaster in the line, as well as the humbucker'd classic, a Gibson Les Paul Standard 50's. All three of these guitars have special places in many players' hearts, but we'd love to hear what you think. Do you prefer the coil splitting and belly carving of the Deluxe, or the stick-to-the-classics of the regular Tele? Let us know in the comments! 0:00​ Goofy Intro 0:38​ Comparing the Specs 6:25​ Fender American Pro II Tele Deluxe Demo 8:03​ Fender American Pro II Tele Demo 9:17​ Gibson Les Paul Standard 50's

Fender CD60SCE vs. CD140SCE Two Quality Affordable Guitars

Today we're taking a look at two extremely popular guitars, both for holiday season and in general! The Fender CD60SCE and CD140SCE are great entry level guitars, with just a couple key aspects that account for their ~$110 price difference. With solid tops, cutaways, scalloped bracing, and comfortable neck profiles, spending less than $500 can afford you an excellent instrument that will age well; but spending a little more for the CD140SCE gets you a nice hard case and some upgraded components.

Ultimate Jazzmaster Comparison: Fender American Pro II vs. American Professional vs. American Ultra

"We finally have our new American Professional II Jazzmasters in the store and ready to showcase! As a huge fan of the Fender Jazzmaster, Cooper needed to get his hands on all of these to do a proper comparison-- with upgrades from the predecessor American Professional line including a beveled heel carve, V-Mod II pickups, the return of the "rhythm circuit" controls, and new finishing options, these guitars are up to the excellent standard we've seen from the American Pro II line. Take a listen as we compare the new and the old, as well as the big-brother American Ultra line, and discuss the benefits that each line presents."

Blues Soloing Move - House Pattern (Major) To Box 3 Pentatonic Minor To Pentatonic 6 Pattern
Griff Hamlin_ Blues Guitar Unleashed

Blues Soloing Move - House Pattern (Major) To Box 3 Pentatonic Minor To Pentatonic 6 Pattern

This video is one of my favorite "moves" around and through some of my favorite blues soloing scales and sounds. If you've ever heard me talk about what I call the, "core position," for many blues players... this is it. "Notice how, with minimal movement, I can go through 3 unique sounds easily and comfortably, with only minor adjustments getting from one scale to the next... In my opinion, that should be your goal, not moving around the fretboard in large leaps and bounds."....Griff

Old News- Back to the Future: In the classic 1985 movie Back To The Future, The guitar Michael J Fox is playing is all wrong...!! Norm Harris joins us to spill the beans.

Old News- Back to the Future: How do they get it sooooo wrong…??! In the classic 1985 movie Back To The Future, Marty McFly, aka Michael J Fox gets up on stage and belts out a version of Johnny B Goode which gets the whole joint rockin’. Just a couple of things….the movie is set in 1955 and Johnny B Goode didn’t come out until 1958, BUT, we’ll let that one go, what we won’t let go is that the guitar he’s playing, a cherry red ES 345 wasn’t released by Gibson until 1959/60…!! Norm Harris from Norman’s Rare Guitars rented the guitar to the production company and joins us to spill the beans.
