6:50 Led Zeppelin - Stairway to Heaven 7:37 Oasis - Wonderwall 8:37 The Beatles - Blackbird 10:34 Extreme - More Than Words 12:37 Fleetwood Mac - Oh Well Great jams, djentlemen! #BaritoneGuitar #AcousticGuitar
That opening jam was off the chain! Superb playing, fellas. That baritone 'growls' like an angry panther, especially in the hands of a player like Ben. You guys are treating us with great content, as always :)
Ben is such a great addition to the Anderton team. Always loved Danish Pete and still do but Ben on accoustic side is great. Right now I can't see the Anderson's team improving. Right now is sheer perfection. Lee is playing better than ever. Pete always brings it. Rob just has such a good time and he can shred. Ben really filled a hole I didn't know was there.
im considering buying a baritone guitar, but im afraid that I cant find many songs to play on it. I mostly like to cover music, and I know that i can play all songs on a baritone, but I would also like to make covers of like fingerstyle songs that are made for baritone acoustic guitar...do you think ill have any luck? i like ebon coast by andy mckee, but cant find many songs like it. what do you think?
Pete Honore: one of the few guitarists who when playing lead does not make funny mouth poses! P.S. Those under saddle pickups sound so quacky. So many better options available now.
Maaaaan...Ben and Pete are great players that sound phenomenal together. Great video idea. I’ve been looking at baritone guitars for so long as a country guitarist. I think I might pull the trigger on one after this.
Last song hint: I can't help about the shape I'm in I can't sing, I ain't pretty and my legs are thin But don't ask me what I think of you I might not give the answer that you want me to Fleetwood Mac, Oh Well (1969) written by Peter Green.
@@jennyhardman5494 He was destroyed by drugs taken at a party in Germany after a gig. Unfortunately he didn't just walk away, it would have been better if he had. So much we missed from him.
Not very many people know but one of the best tunings for acoustic baritone is so called "half Nashville tuning".It's used by Pat Metheny on all his acoustic albums.
Shoot if I worked at a guitar store and heard that melodious rendition of Stairway to Heaven on a baritone.... I would not throw that person playing out. So rich and full and more ominous sounding but beautiful.
Great! I got my Alvarez Eight from you lot! Its a great guitar ... i get a headache after half an hour from transposing for my left hand & trying to sing the original notes!! I agree that I miss the top E twang! I reversed the Octave strings to get them o the upstroke! I´m keen to try it in a band setting with Fiddle, 5 string bass & a regular guitar! I think we´ll have ALL BASES COVERED!! Songs like WHITE WEDDING are a blast to play .. with the riff off the OPEN &the string....
That second guitar that Pete plays and he states he thinks has some sort of Mahogany top, back and sides is actually made with Trembesi wood according to the product desecription on Anderon’s website. I guessed wrong too as my intial “gut” impression on seeing it was that it was Koa wood-it certainly resembes Koa. Given that the price listed for this beautiful guitar is 999 pounds it must be Trembesi must be a bit cheaper than Koa as a guitar with soild Koa top, back and sides I would expect to command a price in the $2500-3500 range (at least for a Taylor or Martin made of solid Koa)
Holy shit what a difference in sound. I never knew. Why can’t you play these songs at a guitar shop. If I could play them I’d play em just to see em try n stop me. I’d say I’ll never be back. It’s ridiculous. You both sound great.
I'd love to see a comparison between that Alvarez Baritone and the Ibanez Travel Bass (I own one of the latter and love playing it, so it would be interesting to compare the tone).
I have been after 12 string baritone electric for long time. Coban were supposed to be making me a custom kit but I think something must have gone wrong
The lovely old lady who runs the open mic nights at the local cider house has a lower voice. She uses a capo to raise the guitar to G. I kept on suggesting she get a baritone. That way, she has a guitar that comes stock in her own vocal range. No more capo needed. Plus, me being all about baritone guitars and 5-string basses, I would already be able to play along with her.
I knew it was coming and yet the moment I heard Stairway, I almost instinctively closed the video, lol. Something deep in my soul went "alright, that's enough of that"
Nice!! I tried a baritone guitar from Taylor a few months ago, but I did not buy it because of not fancy tone for me. I wanna get one but unfortunately baritone acoustic guitars are not popular at all in my region. Baritone guitar is really fan to play. So relaxed tone. There are seldom Alvarez and Faith in my region. I should go to England to get one someday.....
Pete you are too cool my friend. I am impressed by the baritone sound it has a depth that if I had to compare it to something it is the Barry White voice of guitars. I must confess I have never played a baritone guitar but as time goes on and I keep seeing videos showcasing them and the sound they create I am sure to check one out beyond the holidays at some point. Andertons needs to do more "unplugged" segments maybe start a sounds like acoustic set and feature different guitars, amps, and effects for acoustic players. I get that isn't really Rabea's forte but I think it would be cool to have the Acoustic Corner with you and maybe keep Ben in the mix, feature the Captain from time to time, and invite top Acoustic players for interviews and rig rundowns. Just a thought for you to run by the crew and consider. I for one think that it would be a huge success. Happy Holidays
My dream baritone would be: Semi hollow Tele style body (thinline?); Either honey burst finish with chrome hardware and black scratch plate or Black/gray stained finish with gold hardware no scratch plate; Ebony fretboard; SS pickup config; Solid brass saddles (ashtray); Aaaand why not... Locking strap and tuners; Hit me up if you have found one 😎
Why is all the baritone audio using the pickup? Surely the point is to show what it actually sounds like in person. The pickups don't do them justice at all.
We were just guessing the last riff for fun right? "Oh Well" is not forbidden from being played in the music shop I hope, because then I ought to be embarrassed. That tune has been my main music store squeeze for years! I guess I probably should change my music store riff. From now on I will do "I'm Going Home" by Ten Years After. Just kidding!
Wow these two really work well together! BUT, this means I can never go into a guitar store ever again. That's my entire repertoire banned, right there.
So serious question (almost), if I walk into Andertons wanting to buy a Gibson custom shop Les Paul and I play Smoke on the water, will I be kicked out? ;)
I always find that the difference between how acoustic guitars sound in the room and how they sound in a video is quite large. Here it sounds really flat and metallic. Sitting in the room it is usually quite amazing.
The opening number should be played in Guitar Stores, daily.
Ben and Danish Pete are literally a match made in guitar heaven.
Some say the next Tenacious D???
@@andertons More like the Danishcious P....that was so bad I'll see myself out
BENacious P?
Daneacious B!!
is a very good way to present the difference between Baritone and Standard
6:50 Led Zeppelin - Stairway to Heaven
7:37 Oasis - Wonderwall
8:37 The Beatles - Blackbird
10:34 Extreme - More Than Words
12:37 Fleetwood Mac - Oh Well
Great jams, djentlemen! #BaritoneGuitar #AcousticGuitar
Also extreme- more than words sounds like girl from Oklahoma by steel panther.
this acoustic stuff is off the chain! so glad they chose Ben
Ben is proving to be one incredible member of our team! Glad you are enjoying Acoustic Paradiso!
@@andertons I might have to get myself a baritone now. Oh! And that boogie piece was freaking awesome 👏🏻
I bought a Baritone guitar solely based on this video. Thank you for bringing so much happiness into my life.
That opening jam was off the chain!
Superb playing, fellas.
That baritone 'growls' like an angry panther, especially in the hands of a player like Ben.
You guys are treating us with great content, as always :)
That literally made me happy in three seconds flat.
Listen it with headset.... Oh maaan the thick strings sounds realllyyy gooood
Ben is such a great addition to the Anderton team. Always loved Danish Pete and still do but Ben on accoustic side is great. Right now I can't see the Anderson's team improving. Right now is sheer perfection. Lee is playing better than ever. Pete always brings it. Rob just has such a good time and he can shred. Ben really filled a hole I didn't know was there.
That opening was AWESOME!!!!
I'll bet no one would kick you out of a music store for playing "Blackbird" like Pete.
Best jam I've ever heard on Andertons
You haven’t lived till you’ve played a baritone. Takes you to a whole new world of sounds and ideas.
im considering buying a baritone guitar, but im afraid that I cant find many songs to play on it. I mostly like to cover music, and I know that i can play all songs on a baritone, but I would also like to make covers of like fingerstyle songs that are made for baritone acoustic guitar...do you think ill have any luck? i like ebon coast by andy mckee, but cant find many songs like it. what do you think?
These guys should go on tour. Jansch/Renbourn, Atkins/Knopfler and these two. Some of the best acoustic players I've ever heard
You can catch Smith and Brewer on tour with Fairport Convention next Jan/Feb ;-)
"Jansch/Renbourn, Atkins/Knopfler and these two."
No. Just no.
Pete Honore: one of the few guitarists who when playing lead does not make funny mouth poses! P.S. Those under saddle pickups sound so quacky. So many better options available now.
Yeah they sound like dropping a bowling ball on a duck. Would have been nice to hear more straight from the mics.
a few weeks of practicing in front of a mirror will make you conscience enough of it to break the habit. well, it did for me but I caught it early on.
Pete I love and hate you equally I have 9 guitars didn’t want anymore 10 minutes ago and now want a baritone cheers
Maaaaan...Ben and Pete are great players that sound phenomenal together. Great video idea. I’ve been looking at baritone guitars for so long as a country guitarist. I think I might pull the trigger on one after this.
My wife told me to stop playing Wonderwall. I said maybe...
Barney Willis Very droll...
You should've said, definitely maybe...
Love your guitar playing! You guys could make anything sound fantastic!
I enjoyed this guys. Ben is starting to feel more comfortable in the Andertons ting. Keep it up 👍🏾
Last song hint:
I can't help about the shape I'm in
I can't sing, I ain't pretty and my legs are thin
But don't ask me what I think of you
I might not give the answer that you want me to
Fleetwood Mac, Oh Well (1969) written by Peter Green.
i saw him play it live! supporting bb king! the guy could play so well! but walked away for decades! sad really!
@@jennyhardman5494 He was destroyed by drugs taken at a party in Germany after a gig. Unfortunately he didn't just walk away, it would have been better if he had. So much we missed from him.
read your lyrics and only heard Phil Collins singing them and wondered if I forgot the words to "I can't dance"
@@Fektthis :-))
Bring Ben back for more videos! dude is a monster. Ben and Pete seem to be able to play together really well.
Not very many people know but one of the best tunings for acoustic baritone is so called "half Nashville tuning".It's used by Pat Metheny on all his acoustic albums.
Playing classics in standard vs baritone was a great idea, I have never been more tempted to get a baritone.
I love the intro... awesome
Pete and Ben, your opening Jamming blew the hell outta me!!!! Rock on man❤️❤️❤️
Shoot if I worked at a guitar store and heard that melodious rendition of Stairway to Heaven on a baritone.... I would not throw that person playing out. So rich and full and more ominous sounding but beautiful.

OMG, I thought Fleetwood Mac would mean Never going back again. Oh, well..
Stairway to heaven, wonderwall, blackbird, more than word, and I don't know the last one... They sound SOOOOOO great on the Baryton guitar!
More Acoustic PARADISO featuring Pete and Ben Pls!!!!!!
Ben, loving your work ... a fellow beardsman too ..as essential in acoustic playing as a plectrum!!!
It blows my mind that people think there are specific songs you shouldn't play in a guitar store
That second guitar that Pete plays and he states he thinks has some sort of Mahogany top, back and sides is actually made with Trembesi wood according to the product desecription on Anderon’s website.

Alvarez said they're working on an 8 string Bari like Taylor used to do, definitely want to have a go on that
Has to be up there with best jams ever that first jam
This is SUCH a good watch! Baritone wonderwall sounds hench!!
Thumbs up for the opening jam. Smooth. Awesome.
I thought Blackbird on the bari sounded super pretty actually! I quite loved that
Holy shit what a difference in sound. I never knew. Why can’t you play these songs at a guitar shop. If I could play them I’d play em just to see em try n stop me. I’d say I’ll never be back. It’s ridiculous. You both sound great.
What a relief, I haven't learned any of those songs.
I'd love to see a comparison between that Alvarez Baritone and the Ibanez Travel Bass (I own one of the latter and love playing it, so it would be interesting to compare the tone).
Now imagine a 12-string baritone
Now imagine a 12-string Baritone played by Pete & Ben?
@@andertons that's too much man.. Can't handle that tought
@@andertons oh boi
I have been after 12 string baritone electric for long time. Coban were supposed to be making me a custom kit but I think something must have gone wrong
Veilette Guitars make an acoustic 12-string baritone, well worth looking up
Gotta love a good baritone. I definitely need one in my collection.

*Lee Anderton wants to know your location*
I love this video so much, and I am still a bit biased towards electric guitars.
Simply fantastic!
I knew it was coming and yet the moment I heard Stairway, I almost instinctively closed the video, lol. Something deep in my soul went "alright, that's enough of that"
This is awesome...Pete and Ben should just do all the demos LOL Ben is starting to relax into the job sooooo well.
That guitar boogie intro would make Tommy Emmanuel smile
Or how to play Blackbird in the most complicated way.
Holy cow, Pete and Ben!!
Oh wow, I never knew a baritone could be a game changer! Alvarez, here I come.
More of this kind of stuff please! Absolutely awesome.
It looks like Pete's been on the Christmas pork pies! Lovely stuff - as always
Ronnie Wood plays an acoustic baritone during the entire set of Rod Stewart`s `unplugged` video!
Nice!! I tried a baritone guitar from Taylor a few months ago, but I did not buy it because of not fancy tone for me. I wanna get one but unfortunately baritone acoustic guitars are not popular at all in my region. Baritone guitar is really fan to play. So relaxed tone. There are seldom Alvarez and Faith in my region. I should go to England to get one someday.....
if i walk at the store and there are playing like in the intro i would never leave. so good
I would grab a guitar and join in yeah;)
Pete you are too cool my friend. I am impressed by the baritone sound it has a depth that if I had to compare it to something it is the Barry White voice of guitars. I must confess I have never played a baritone guitar but as time goes on and I keep seeing videos showcasing them and the sound they create I am sure to check one out beyond the holidays at some point.

Hell yeah! Nice jam!
My dream baritone would be:
Semi hollow Tele style body (thinline?);
Either honey burst finish with chrome hardware and black scratch plate
or
Black/gray stained finish with gold hardware no scratch plate;
Ebony fretboard;
SS pickup config;
Solid brass saddles (ashtray);
Aaaand why not... Locking strap and tuners;
Hit me up if you have found one 😎
You forgot Nothing Else Matters!
Oh Well on the baritone was cool :D Try Green Manilishi next time ... Oh Heck, how about a whole episode of Peter Green on acoustic !!
Yay! I'm glad to see Pete again. I was worried he wasn't going to be appearing anymore.
404 on guitar pages, Anderton sold so many guitars with this video they ran out of parts. Darn bats screwed us again! :)
5:15, instantly reminded me of Chet Atkin's "I still can't say goodbye".
As part of a band, I think the baritone would be great. But if you can have only one acoustic to rule them all, I would go standard every day.
Combo never died. He survived the attack and went on to review guitars and such for Andertons!
I just want to add, whether people like sweet home Alabammy or not PLEASE test position 2 for godly Quack spot.
even if its sacrilegious.
I must say, I love Mick Taylor on Acoustic Paradiso, but go Ben go!!!!
I wonder if it was this tuning Eric Clapton played layla acoustically hmmmm. I remember his live performances had this tone
Bought my abt60e yesterday....for every reason spoken here.
Pete! That intro was fantastic!
Why is all the baritone audio using the pickup? Surely the point is to show what it actually sounds like in person. The pickups don't do them justice at all.
Play the normal and baritone together! Awesome video!
Which raises the question what to buy for your lows: upper class acoustic, or budgety baritone?
We were just guessing the last riff for fun right? "Oh Well" is not forbidden from being played in the music shop I hope, because then I ought to be embarrassed. That tune has been my main music store squeeze for years!
I guess I probably should change my music store riff. From now on I will do "I'm Going Home" by Ten Years After. Just kidding!
Last song (on the baritone) is Meshuggah by Fleetwood Mac
I need to work on my ear; for some reason the baritone sounds out of tune during their comparisons section...
I played chopsticks in a piano store in June 1978. I just got out of A&E yeterday.
Good golly, I'd totally play anything from James Taylor on the baritone
I have the Alvarez without that hideous sunburst with Fishman for 100 quid cheaper. Is great guitar
Lovely sound from the Baritone... But does make me wonder what you guitar shop guys must think of three chord wonders like myself!
That was excellent and excellent fun! Next, 12-string versus 6-string?
Good match up.You can tell Pete is dying to get the Hawaiian shirts back, but Ben wants to stamp his mark and is resisting
Just gotta nitpick here. In Stairway to Heaven it's D/F# instead of D before the Fmaj7.
Wow these two really work well together! BUT, this means I can never go into a guitar store ever again. That's my entire repertoire banned, right there.
New mission in life save money for a blood moon and Neptune.
This opening jam was simply amazing!
You two need to record. I'd buy it ASAP.
I'm buying a plane ticket just to go in and play Stairway to heaven or Extreme!
First song was Enter Sandman. What do I win?
All said in the comments to that 😊
So i second all of the positive comments.
every Guitarist should get a Baritone, I have the Alvarez
Wow, those barries sound awesome.
How much is coming from the pickups vs the mic?
Baritone's just have a certain "growl" to them that I love.
So serious question (almost), if I walk into Andertons wanting to buy a Gibson custom shop Les Paul and I play Smoke on the water, will I be kicked out? ;)
@Eru Eru Not if you pay for the guitar first🎶
Smokin’ intro!
I always find that the difference between how acoustic guitars sound in the room and how they sound in a video is quite large. Here it sounds really flat and metallic. Sitting in the room it is usually quite amazing.
