I miss these videos, the pandemic was awful but getting to see pieces of Steve's guitar collection and getting guitar lessons from Eric Johnson were definitely some of the highlights.
Steve i've been a fan of your music since Guitar Town when i used to live as an illegal alien back in 1986 in Virginia. i followed your music since then in my country. regards from Peru!
I can't choose one specific record of Steve's that is my favorite but I just got a reminder of how much I freakin love El Corazon. All of these videos in this series are both educational and extremely entertaining. I think we are all very fortunate that this American icon decided to record and share them with us.
D'Aquisto was truly a master. He did very few measurements and worked mostly by feel, sight and sound. I was an amture luthier way back in the 70s and 80s and always admired studying his and his master's work. The archtop shares a lot of crafting techniques with violins and other "string" instruments❤️❤️❤️

It is, indeed. And heart-breaking that Justin is gone. Can only imagine how hard it must be for Steve Earle, making that album as a way of paying his respects to his son.
I met a luthier about 15-20 years ago that named David Schneider (sp?) and if I remember correctly apprenticed under D'Aquisto. It is amazing the work/art/love that goes into these guitars to make this sound. Thank you for showing this one.
A dream i have is to have us together playing music your a wonderful musician and i know its my sons dream to play with you. If you know anybody looking for a good guitarist or percussionist let me know 💗. Avery my son would love its one of his dreams he plays and loves all music. His dad is a guitarist but wouldnt give him the time of day. Sad.....well no pitty for us we keep our spirits up and you help. Listening to you is a beautiful thing. Ive learned to appreciate family since most all the family this end have passed away. I've always wanted a big family. I know i told you but you have cousins/family that enjoy your music- love it down here in brazoria county. Lake jackson. Just a coupe miles from surfside. Y'all are loved from our ❤ to y'alls sweetie😇✌🙏😘💗🌹😇🌹😇🌹😇🌹😇
Thank you again, Steve Earle. That is a beautiful guitar with such a rich sound. That guitar sound plus you singing 'The Other Side of Town' - went straight to my heart. 💕
@Mairi Ann Sorry I have to reply this late😊. I am so fortunate to have you as one of my Fan..I am currently carrying out a social media experiment, and would love to know how I have impacted my fans with what I do.. Stephen Fain Earle loves you. 😘 You can always reach me through my personal email. therealsteveearlehimself@gmail.com
Thank you so much Steve, for the series, for the songs and the stories. Building up my second You Tube channel since I couldn't log into my old one which is 'restlessinamsterdam', so if you see a comment from that, it was me. ♥

I just recommend my employer the center for Texas Music History at Texas State University contact Steve to see if we could archive these for preservation purposes. Hopefully they will listen.
Steve... You're my first major influence with music (alongside Tracy Chapman). I ended up being a massive fan of grunge as a teen and to this day I've been obsessed with the band Tool (seen em 12 or 13 times live). Even so...I feel like you're so much more influencual than anyone. Love ya. Be good
Also... Don't know if you remember this but my dad took me to a book reading at a church in Portland Oregon quite a bit ago and his pager went off mid reading and you gave him a salty look. He loves that story.
Steve you said " some time people put pickups on these Archtops and I don't know why ? ". I feel the same way. These Guitar are so labor intensive to produce I am surprised some one puts on a pickup. Steve thanks for the video, I love Archtops and like what you had to say about them.
Binding rot affects Rickenbackers as well. I have a 67 Gretsch Tennessean that was in perfect shape from 1976 to 2015 almost over night have the binding rot away. My 8 Anniversary still looks like new. Just bad batches. Great video and wonderful guitar.
Wowsers Steve. I just looked them up on Reverb. The original's like that are totally up there with pieces of art in price. Amazing guitars for sure. You're lucky on that one brother.
Hi Steve, I have a guitar almost the same as yours. Mine is also blond and the binding is still extremely stable (for whatever reason). But what I wanted to tell you is I love your song and that you played it on a guitar that has a sound you love, not a guitar that's supposed to be the "right one" for the right song. I too feel guilty playing and singing "the Circle" a D'Aquisto, or an original, or a folk tune or whatever....music. Thank you for your inspiration.
Beautiful song and guitar, though this song brings back some memories for me, specifically late 2003. Went to that "other side of town" a few times. Thought of your song and didn't stay after dark. Didn't have a special someone waiting but didn't stay. Another maple, pretty with a great sound. Looked like Steve was going to say something else after singing? Great info. The one off of El Corazon sounds like an old record playing. Love the videos.
Steve: I worked for Jimmy part time (cleaning and shipping strings) from 1972 to around 1981. Jimmy told me after John's heart attach, Jim DiSerio went off on his own and Jimmy D'Aquisto he did most of the work (while John took time to go fishing). Jimmy claimed the only thing John did not let him do was to dovetail the neck to the body.
Thank you for these videos. I have enjoyed them a lot. Hopefully you'll find time to do more someday. I'd love to hear you talk about mandocello you played on Jimmy Kimmel.

I was thinking that the tiny sunburst effect was on purpose until you said about the plastic being defective . Beautiful guitar also very good George grhun impersonation
Great song from a great album. There is a way to stop that plastic from breaking down, I believe it has to do with solvents. Same thing happens to screwdriver handles of a certain vintage. Keep it away from solvents and oils
This is crazy i didnt know either or didnt pay attention. I didnt realize you had a son named Ian i have a son names ian too bornb9-10/1982. 2 Ian's in the family my Ian im sure my son is autistic as well along with other problems. My heart goes out to your family and you. Family or not love you. Sorry for all your going thru. My prayers are with you and for you. Love your videos. We have family things in common its crazy i never payed aytention i love, always enjoyed listening and sharimg your music. Talent runs in the family. My son Avery just got himself a really nice drum set last night picked it up from sugarland. Wish u could here him play. plays guitar he's a natural. as well. Ive been blessed avery got clean and sober few yesrs back.... Boy did i worry worry worry... Love and truely, peace to y'all. Love is most important and i love family since ive love most of my aunts uncles etc... Friends. So i really appreciate family. Theres no replacing family with anything. Family is priceless Justin my love my cousin REST IN PEACE LOVE. YOU WERE AND ARE LOVED. I would like to to go to Justins grave and show my respects. My mom is buried in arlington tex. My brother Stan and another reletive has expressed his emotions. Love is with you and mosy of all prayers. I hate not having much family my daughter is giving me hell!!! Wtf did i do? Well i love you cousin. It may be hard to believe but, we are cousins. I met u wen i was very little. I guess it doesnt matter. But im doing fine. Y)u will too with time....✌Justin 😘🙏😇✌😘😘😘😘😘🐦🍃🐦🍃🐦🍃🐦🍃🐦🍃🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
I’m going to miss you every Friday night....or maybe you’ll never stop pulling guitars out from under beds, hidden in closets and snuck down from the rafters. Love those archtops. One of the few hidden gems you can find here and there, conveniently overseen by most flat top players. One of my go-to players is an 30’s Kalamazoo archtop. Best neck I’ve ever played. They got it right that day and that neck has never been reset and must be thee perfect angle.
Hi man. I've seen quite a few of your videos and a lot of the tones have been underwhelming. I haven't heard anything that holds a candle to my J50, J21 martin, LG 2 3/4. Even my modern L00. I'm just wondering respectfully what r u hearing here

You might get a kick out of this. Sometimes I like to mash up songs, like Dyer Makr with the Stir it Up bass line and vice versa.( Zep stole that one too) My newest miscreation is Copperhead Road sung to the tune of The Stable Song by Gregory Alan Isakov.
Now I know why some people say all guitars sound the same. It's because they have never heard a Jazz virtuoso play a D'aquisto or any other guitar made by a legendary Luther because they can't afford one.
Steve, I used to own a beautiful 1942 L-5, and I have read that they "Go to sleep" if you leave them in the case for awhile. I swear, I noticed this phenomenon myself. It would take a few hours of playing to bring out the best sounds. I never noticed this on any flattop I've had. Very strange. Is this what you were referencing when you said that it would sound better if you played it more?
Bad binding was installed in beautiful guitars unbeknownst to the luthier. It was an undetectable defect in the synthesis of the plastic when it was installed. D'A's bad stuff came from a German supplier, same as Gretsch, Epi, Premier, etc. Rotting binding will always continue to rot. With the rotting, it will damage the wood, the finish and the plating and the case of the guitar, and even non-'infected" , adjacent plastics will often be affected. Ever wonder why that mint Junior has crunchy tuner buttons and that beat up refinned example that never saw the inside of a case has tuner buttons that are totally solid? Minty one got buttons from a bad batch of plastic. Steve, to do right by this important guitar, you must identify the bad pieces of binding and have them removed and replaced. The bad binding is eating this guitar. Nothing will stop the decay of the bad pieces. However, unaffected pieces are probably OK to leave on. (If it hasnt started by now, it's probably OK.) The faux sunbursting of the finish is chemical scarring caused by the bad celluloid. This stains the lacquer, and in turn, the wood. This will only get worse and I should also mention that the corrosive products of this chemical reaction are highly toxic to humans .....Get it off there ASAP. Sucks, I know, but you gotta do what you gotta do.

He usually plays Gruene Hall when he is down your way. In general, though, I have been told by a tour manager is helpful if fans encourage the venue to invite the artist if you want that to happen.
Great jazz players would play them, except that collectors, investors, traders, enthusiasts, and show offs with lots of money keep buying them for crazy amounts of money and driving their price into the stratosphere.
A wise Cherokee once told me: “If you want to know where your going, you first need to know where your at.” Then he handed me a roadmap. Makes me think that one of the reasons Steve gets so much richness from these guitars is because he understands the components so well. Regardless, Steve is a music master.

I used to say the same about acoustic archtop guitars; for years and when I got more into them they still sounded loud and abrupt. But after playing guitar for 40 years, I now mostly play archtops! It's a learned process (not to be Wes Montgomery) but to understand the nuance of archtops, how to hold a pick compared to a flat top (yes, really) how to strum them hard, fast soft and sound nice....I don't play jazz; I play blues, rock, jam, folk, Beatles etc etc.
For the 5th time, at least, You have to speak into the mic! Jesus man, don’t you ever watch these to see how well it recorded? You have 2 cameras! GET ANOTHER MICROPHONE!
Dear "Helen", When is the last time you had a hearing test? This is a non-issue. Maybe the problem is on your end because an unbiased evaluation is simply, "loud and clear." You seem irritated from repeated negative experiences. "A poor craftsman blames his tools." Respectfully Submitted.
@@thereevus from 3:30 mark when he stands up. I didn’t say I couldn’t hear it, I said he doesn’t speak into a mic. He has enough $ to buy a lavalier OR just make sure he is in closer proximity to a microphone. This has happened multiple times. When was the last time you didn’t respond to a “non-issue.”? Maybe next time you think you need to make a comment, you shouldn’t. Oh, also you can go fuck yourself. Not, Respectfully Submitted.
I think most of the D'aquisto's are possibly owned by collectors not Jazz Guitarists or people who can play much. Sad. Same true for many other guitar masterpieces. I've suggested that James Olson just start making wind-up guitars that play themselves for collectors and millionaires since they are the only people who can afford his guitars besides music superstars loaded with cash.

The fact that a man of Steve Earle's stature gives his time to a small audience is a great measure of the man's character. What a diamond!
Great song, and great video Mr. Earle... You are by far an awesome singer, and Guitar (Town) Player!!!
Thanks for all the great music Steve.
Love that song, Steve, I think it's one of your best. It's got that Hank Williams Sr aspect to it...
Thank you Steve for you great songwriting and your RUclips videos!
Wow. Beautiful craftsmanship. That's one fine looking guitar.
Thank you Steve for featuring this beautiful gem.
A lovely guitar for a lonely song. Very nice
I want to write and sing like you one day, to me you are an inspiration and a true legend!
Thanks STEVE. That was a hypnotic performance, from both the instrument and You.
Thank you, Mr. Earle, for sharing your beautiful guitars and their stories.
I miss these videos, the pandemic was awful but getting to see pieces of Steve's guitar collection and getting guitar lessons from Eric Johnson were definitely some of the highlights.
Steve i've been a fan of your music since Guitar Town when i used to live as an illegal alien back in 1986 in Virginia. i followed your music since then in my country. regards from Peru!
Thank you Steve. All the best. Blessings to you and yours.
I call it a night after watching Steve here on the west coast, nice way to unwind and get some much needed rest these days...
Take care of yourself.
@@pktdbgnzwl Thankyou , will do!
Beautiful.
Playing your ballad acoustically on a D’Aquisto is rare to hear and see anyone ever do. Thanks, you and the D’Aq sounded really nice.
I can't choose one specific record of Steve's that is my favorite but I just got a reminder of how much I freakin love El Corazon. All of these videos in this series are both educational and extremely entertaining. I think we are all very fortunate that this American icon decided to record and share them with us.
Love the history of the guitars you bring, and the songs are just outstanding. Thank you sir.
Right on Steve love this song never stop listening to your music
D'Aquisto was truly a master. He did very few measurements and worked mostly by feel, sight and sound. I was an amture luthier way back in the 70s and 80s and always admired studying his and his master's work. The archtop shares a lot of crafting techniques with violins and other "string" instruments❤️❤️❤️
Loving this series

It is, indeed. And heart-breaking that Justin is gone. Can only imagine how hard it must be for Steve Earle, making that album as a way of paying his respects to his son.
@@ObvPhotography how do you do that?
@@user-ju7ze9to4k they have a bunch of colors. Blue, red, lime green, neon pink, red with blue splatter, and yellow with green marble
I met a luthier about 15-20 years ago that named David Schneider (sp?) and if I remember correctly apprenticed under D'Aquisto. It is amazing the work/art/love that goes into these guitars to make this sound. Thank you for showing this one.

I was hoping to hear what a D'aquisto sounds like, but I guess I'll have to wait for a Jazz Guitarist to win the lottery and can afford one.
Don't worry about the 6 dislikes... It was Shane McGowan trying to hit the like button... X
Interesting sound. Hard to explain.
Been trying to pace myself on these. Now I'm all caught up. Time to go back to the beginning and re-re-re watching.

This will only get worse and I should also mention that the corrosive products of this chemical reaction are highly toxic to humans .....Get it off there ASAP. Sucks, I know, but you gotta do what you gotta do.

Steve somehow try to find your way back into SAN ANTONIO.TOBIN CENTER. Thank you. SOMEDAY I hope that you get yourself a LIVE TV SHOW.
He usually plays Gruene Hall when he is down your way. In general, though, I have been told by a tour manager is helpful if fans encourage the venue to invite the artist if you want that to happen.
Why do we worship guitars? What is Stradivarious of violins?
:)
Great jazz players would play them, except that collectors, investors, traders, enthusiasts, and show offs with lots of money keep buying them for crazy amounts of money and driving their price into the stratosphere.
As always...top notch..and i love his wearing the X- los angeles shirt cool as the other side of the pillow 👍

He is making instruments with that wedge type bridge that D'Aquisto invented.
A wise Cherokee once told me: “If you want to know where your going, you first need to know where your at.” Then he handed me a roadmap.
Makes me think that one of the reasons Steve gets so much richness from these guitars is because he understands the components so well.
Regardless, Steve is a music master.

Sorry Steve you wrote some great lyrics but you're not doing that guitar any justice.
I didn't think the guitar sounded that good, too tinny.
I used to say the same about acoustic archtop guitars; for years and when I got more into them they still sounded loud and abrupt. But after playing guitar for 40 years, I now mostly play archtops! It's a learned process (not to be Wes Montgomery) but to understand the nuance of archtops, how to hold a pick compared to a flat top (yes, really) how to strum them hard, fast soft and sound nice....I don't play jazz; I play blues, rock, jam, folk, Beatles etc etc.
Please reaction alip ba ta from Indonesian king of fingerstyle
For the 5th time, at least, You have to speak into the mic! Jesus man, don’t you ever watch these to see how well it recorded? You have 2 cameras! GET ANOTHER MICROPHONE!
Maybe, he just wants to piss you off. My first time telling you.
Dear "Helen",
When is the last time you had a hearing test? This is a non-issue.
Maybe the problem is on your end because an unbiased evaluation is simply, "loud and clear."
You seem irritated from repeated negative experiences. "A poor craftsman blames his tools."
Respectfully Submitted.
@@thereevus from 3:30 mark when he stands up. I didn’t say I couldn’t hear it, I said he doesn’t speak into a mic. He has enough $ to buy a lavalier OR just make sure he is in closer proximity to a microphone. This has happened multiple times.
When was the last time you didn’t respond to a “non-issue.”? Maybe next time you think you need to make a comment, you shouldn’t. Oh, also you can go fuck yourself. Not, Respectfully Submitted.
I kinda like the "bad" editing of these videos. It's very boomer-esque and kind of hilarious.
I think most of the D'aquisto's are possibly owned by collectors not Jazz Guitarists or people who can play much. Sad. Same true for many other guitar masterpieces. I've suggested that James Olson just start making wind-up guitars that play themselves for collectors and millionaires since they are the only people who can afford his guitars besides music superstars loaded with cash.
