    That Fender VI in the back isn't going unnoticed. Would love to see another VI make an appearance on Thumpin Thursday.

    Hey Jen, I hope your grandfather makes it out okay. He'll be in my thoughts and prayers. I have been watching GotD since May of 2016. You guys are incredible and I've learned so much from these videos. I know video editing alone is mentally taxing. And then I know you have other responsibilities. So enjoy your break! I'll be watching like I do everyday.
    And whenever I visit Cali for the second time I'll have to stop by. I probably couldn't afford anything as I don't make that much money, but I'd just like to marvel at the guitars.
    Both of you keep on rocking!

    Love them G&L's! This one still looks quite modern in terms of design even now.

  • @davebutcher8150
    @davebutcher8150 6 лет назад +21

    So I will put in my 2 cents. I bought a G&L asat a few years ago and I feel that G&L and Guild are very underrated. You get a good product for a good price. Keep up the good work you two and I wish you and your family the best Jen. Keep your head up and keep smiling.

      My ASAT Classic is a thinline however I have played a Strat type (I think it was called a Comanche or something) and yes it was heavy

      Amen. Guild and G&L - great American guitar makers at a great price. Going to be picking up a Guild Starfire III by the end of the summer

      @chriscalvin100 6 лет назад +1

      I played an ASAT bass for 10 years. It was a great bass, and at 10.5 lbs, a pain from the neck all the way down. Still, the best bass I ever owned. Beats Fender, Gibson, Rickenbacker, Hofner, Danelectro, in my experience.

    • @barryjamesmusic
      @barryjamesmusic 6 лет назад

      Love G&L guitars! My main axe is a '94 ASAT Special in black. The pickups take some getting used to, but they are versatile especially with the adjustable pole pieces.

    G&Ls rule! The L-2000 is one of the sickest basses ever made. A most elegant beast. The Interceptor would look much better if it had an ebony board.

      "When I wrote N.I.B., I couldn't think of a title for the song, so I just called it Nib, after Bill's beard. To make it more intriguing I put punctuation marks in there to make it N.I.B. By the time it got to America, they translated it to Nativity In Black."- Said by Geezer Butler

    It's always a good idea to take a polishing cloth to black guitars before presentation. Know what I mean, Vern?

    @keithlau3872 5 лет назад +1

    Love seeing a bass like this one that kinda flew under the radar! It is a Leo Fender creation after all. The two straight angular ends is a pretty radical design too! The best part is that this is not a Precision or Jazz Bass (Yawn!!!).

    Mark, thanks for showing us "...some of the bells and whistles" again. It really does give us a MUCH better idea of what sorts of tones a prospective buyer/actual player might get from the axe. Hell, I'll personally Guarantee that at least SOME of your subscribers have no idea what kinds of sounds they can get from phase, coil tap, OR boost switches just alone by themselves, not to mention how they might sound, all together. Yeah, I know you guys sell a lot of guitars and basses from these videos, but I'm certain you'll sell even MORE if you would showcase those extra switches more often. And you don't have to play six songs to do it, either - just tell us you're "going to flip the "_________" switch on this next one...how rad was THAT?!?" Then on the next one, "Okay, I'm gonna flip the "______" switch in the middle of this one..." How freakin' rad was THAT?!?" Etc., rad nauseum. (see what I did there? 😎

We were all on golf carts riding around in circles trying to find the first tee. What did I yell? “Rock and Roll, hello Cleveland! HELLO CLEVELAND!”. He was a huge guitar nut. Guess who got the open spot? Lol
