He keeps improving, my only complaint is that when he uses a Les Paul he keeps going Led Zeppelin era rock and I’d love to hear him use the clean tones more for other genres
@stuartdennis8506 lol, I like it when he goes Jeff Buckley on a Telecaster. Lol. Probably the funniest is when Frank Stallone brought in his new line of electric guitar in with all these modern specs and Lemmo went crazy. Afterwards, Norm said he charges by the note. Lol
Lemmo is levels and levels above most players. He's also about the sweetest young guy in the music world today. He reminds me very much of Bonamassa with his humility and great but dry sense of humor.
No need to explain the back orders. There are millions of dollars worth of guitars at Norm's. But, the most precious and rarest thing in that store is Norm, You ( Lemmo) , Jen, and the rest of the staff. Just for all the happiness you guys gave us through guitars, and music. Love and prayers for you all.
Holy smokes Lemmo, that last tune was off the charts!!! You are a killer player!! Thanks, as always Jen for capturing this brilliance!!! All the best to you all out there in LA LA Land right now!
The documentary was AWESOME! Ever since Norm had his health scare a few years back, I had been thinking, "they really need to document Norm's story and the history of the store while they can", whether in a long form interview, or a youtube video or whatever. The doc was beyond my wildest expectations, great job to all involved! As for that Jazzmaster, I could stare at 60's Fender tort for DAYS and not get sick of it. They just don't make it like they used to!🤤🤤🤤
Wow! At the tender age of 13 years old my first electric was a 65 pure white Jazzmaster and a Deluxe reverb oh how I wish I still had both. Love what you guys do. Back in the day I was signed to a label and lived in Tarzana near your location. Hope you all stay safe praying for LA and not only my friends and family that live there but for all the people of So Cal. Peace, love and prayers from Nor Cal. 🙏🙏🙏
With Michael’s demos on Jazzmaster’s the factory will have to boost production of reproduction models….amazing, thank you 🙏 stay safe everyone in the LA area through difficult times
I'm like everybody around here in LA. - specifically in Norm's neighborhood. It's weird how your life is dictated by the direction of the wind. We all have our family photos, etc. by the front door so we can make a quick exit if need-be, and for some of us we've done this dance before. As usual, Lemmo and the guys have brought a much-needed respite to this lunacy and this performance has to be one of the most memorable. Thanks to the crew and, to my friends and neighbors, - brighter days are ahead!
Goodness gracious Michael, that last piece was amazing! I love the different styles and sounds you get out of that guitar. Never considered picking up a Jazzmaster. That might have just changed.
That Jazz Master is the same age as me but sounds a whole lot better (and looks nearly as good 😉). The range of sounds from it is amazing. Thanks for the demo.
Man, I just watched the documentary about Norms Rare Guitars! What a fantastic job! It is so wonderful to see how many people Norm has affected. He is a true AMERICAN GEM! Love ya Norm and staff!
Nice work on the Jazzmaster 🎸. I know you like them. Good to know that people are planning ways to help so many people who are in desperate need 👆. Please stream it because I’m in KY and can’t attend but want to watch and help. I hope all of you stay safe 🚨. 👍☮️🌞🎸🎵⭐️
Amazing looking sounds epic ok sounds better you playing it than me God be with y'all keep the fires away thanks Michael Roberto Norm and last but not least hey Jenn
I've been wanting a Jazzmaster for years , I've been savoring the wanting though , putting it off because it is like chasing DROGAS y'know-y'know-y'know !!! That Blonde is a beauty full example , and I love Michael's playing ! Suh-wheat ! Thanks !
These are our ringers. It doesn’t get any better than these guys. Remarkable pocket and groove. Always playing the perfect tempo with so much taste we are truly blessed
Michael is the kind of guitarist who, even though I play electric bass, makes me want to immediately switch to playing electric guitar after watching just one of his videos. Haha
Man hadn't heard Stepping Out in a long time. Always good to see Roberto. Enjoyed the selections today Michael. Your in your element with a jazz master😊
Im glad you guys are all safe from the Fires. You have such a close team working at Norms. I watched the Documentary, I messaged Norm to congratulate him while I was watching the Documentary. Norm actually called me, what a surprise that was. I wish I was closer to NRG. I'd be hanging there probably too much and I'd probably be a pest. Love you guys. Donny, in Florida ❤️
Wow! Killer playing!! Just amazing. That Jazzmaster sounds terrific! You guys are just tearing it up. Hope you all are doing well with those crazy fires around!
I’ve just learned Stepping Out from watching you - it’s always been a song I’ve wanted to play but never got round to it. Thank you for the inspiration 😎
That was so much fun! And to think that that guitar is 60 years old now! I just got a jazz master within the last year. Can’t believe how cool they are.
Great picking on a classic guitar. Thanks Roberto and Jen. Sometimes a few extra watts make people forget the times a going on. All good from snowy cold east Kentucky USA
Hi Team Norman's. First, I'm so glad to hear you're all safe. Prayers are up for all in the path of these tragic fires. Second, I watched the Netflix documentary on Norm's yesterday. I've never seen a documentary that was even close to this well done in my life. I'm old and love watching docs. This one is all time top 3 for sure. I felt so lucky to learn so much about Norm's early life. I ended up getting teary eyed in several parts of the film. So mucj amazing history packed into 90 minutes of perfection. The only part that really got to me was talking about Norm's like it's already a forgone conclusion that it's almost over. Think positive guys. Norm should be talking to Dave who owns CME here in Chicago. Some how figure out a partnership that includes Norm, Dave, and Joe B. if he's interested. There's no need to ever close this once in a lifetime business down. Keep it going forever. Norman's is too important to the history of music, guitars, films, etc. Much love to the Team Norman's Family. Absolutely incredible. BTW, Lemmo and Nic s/b key in the future too, as well as Ms. Jen. You guys did this as a team.
Loved Steppin Out! Is it ok if I nick the arrangement for my own shows? Well done. Love the jazzmaster. She will be mine - oh yes - she will be mine :)
Joe Jackson is the man. So much talent (singing, writing, piano, sax, etc.) Steppin' Out is a classic. Well done, Michael!
Great cover ofJoe Jackson as a Brit who lives not far from him.
Michael makes me want to get a Jazzmaster. Great playing as always. Stay safe!
Every so often, a musician just gets a notch better than they were before. Michael is definitely playing on another level. Great job.
He keeps improving, my only complaint is that when he uses a Les Paul he keeps going Led Zeppelin era rock and I’d love to hear him use the clean tones more for other genres

Lemmo is levels and levels above most players. He's also about the sweetest young guy in the music world today. He reminds me very much of Bonamassa with his humility and great but dry sense of humor.
Roberto has such a great energy. I love to see/hear it come through in his playing.
No need to explain the back orders.
There are millions of dollars worth of guitars at Norm's.
But, the most precious and rarest thing in that store is Norm, You ( Lemmo) , Jen, and the rest of the staff. Just for all the happiness you guys gave us through guitars, and music.
Love and prayers for you all.
Wow! Just in awe watching these two play. I can only imagine how rewarding it must be to play at that level 👏
Stay safe Michael, Norman & Company ✌️
Best Guitar of the Day - ever!!! Well done!!! A little piece of history right here!!!
You can tell from the demo that the Jazzmaster plays like butter. You & Roberto fall into the pocket from the get go.
Came for the guitar, stayed for the musicians! Amazing jam.
Holy smokes Lemmo, that last tune was off the charts!!! You are a killer player!! Thanks, as always Jen for capturing this brilliance!!! All the best to you all out there in LA LA Land right now!
Gorgeous.. ..and so's the Precision.. 😎❤
Such an old soul. Blessed to have a Micheal Lemmo your song choice brings back many good memories May u all be safe

legendary episode. Lemmo's playing is out of this world

That bass was slapping’ !!! That jazz master wasn’t too bad either 😉
At $7500 that P Bass should be awesome
Goodness gracious Michael, that last piece was amazing! I love the different styles and sounds you get out of that guitar. Never considered picking up a Jazzmaster. That might have just changed.
That was some mighty fine playing all around, my ears enjoyed all of it!
Wow! You could hear the difference when Mike is playing a jazzmaster. Plus I think the crowd got him going. Loved the documentary. Thanks Jen.
Anyone else feel that middle position tone was on another level?
Stay safe everybody! Sending love from France ❤
Michael really shines on Jazzmasters. Very amazing Michael!
That Jazz Master is the same age as me but sounds a whole lot better (and looks nearly as good 😉). The range of sounds from it is amazing. Thanks for the demo.
This was a really good one, song selection, lemmo’s phenomenal playing and that jazz?!! Cmon 😮💨
That Forget-me-nots jam is sublime ❤
Man, I just watched the documentary about Norms Rare Guitars! What a fantastic job! It is so wonderful to see how many people Norm has affected. He is a true AMERICAN GEM! Love ya Norm and staff!
Nice work on the Jazzmaster 🎸. I know you like them.

Sounds amazing, Jazzmasters are the best sounding Fender in my opinion
I've been wanting a Jazzmaster for years , I've been savoring the wanting though , putting it off because it is like chasing DROGAS y'know-y'know-y'know !!! That Blonde is a beauty full example , and I love Michael's playing ! Suh-wheat ! Thanks !
The king of the greatest guitar GODS❤LOVE YOU MAN ,GREAT HUMAN BEINGS ❤️
That was an awesome Joe Jackson groove... Wow! Loved it.
Best ep of this show EVER
These are our ringers. It doesn’t get any better than these guys. Remarkable pocket and groove. Always playing the perfect tempo with so much taste we are truly blessed
Michael is the kind of guitarist who, even though I play electric bass, makes me want to immediately switch to playing electric guitar after watching just one of his videos. Haha
I could listen to this all day.
Man hadn't heard Stepping Out in a long time. Always good to see Roberto. Enjoyed the selections today Michael. Your in your element with a jazz master😊
Thanks in behalf of the rest of the group, and you definitely, have passed the audition
Yes stay safe!
