These two old friends catch up on what a strange year 2020 has been, they talk about how Carlos' support of Paul in the late 1980s helped to launch PRS Guitars into the limelight, and what it was really like in San Francisco in the late 1960s.

So incredible to be living in this time and growing up with this music. And during PRS guitars while the man is here. There’s no Leo or Orville around. But we have Paul and that’s awesome!
Carlos has proven, time and again, that it's not 32nd notes that make a guitarist great - it's playing great music.
yes but some like Satriani Moore could play emotional solo with just a little notes and shred
shred every scale and chord change you know and then chord your guitarist's shreds pls when it's best
That was really something else! Mr.Santana is a special human being,...
I think he smokes not traditional cigarettes lol
@@phenixreturns you have 26 comments on this channel and not a single one is positive. try putting some better energy into the world.
At the risk of repeating what any PRS owner knows, it's actually a privilege to own and play Paul's guitars. I know they are expensive, but after years of owning and playing many other guitars, and finally getting one (I have a few now) you can't afford not to own at least one. They are absolutely magnificent.
Amen bro-
@@michaelschiessl8357 I feel honored every time I go for mine.
At the moment I own one Prs but it’s the Prs p20e so the acoustic guitar and I love it and this week about to get the pink Prs se custom 24 since at the moment it’s on sale for £500 which is a steal really
Just incredible. Carlos is a living sage. What a beautiful soul. Paul is so humble as well!
The man ,the myth, the legend,Mr.Carlos Santana. Thanks for all the great years of music. Munchas gracias por la musica.😷🤓😎👍🎛️🎙️🎼🎵🎶PRS. 🙏🙏Por la guitarra
"When it's time to do what you do, just present your heart." Good lord, how real is this and how valuable it is to EVERYTHING you do in life? Be GENUINELY YOU even when that's scary and raw.
Carlos never really says anything bitter or negative, always talking about loving music and bringing people together. Really enjoy his point of view and the music will live forever. Thanks Carlos and Paul.
mary spender could tell you a different story about him he aint a saint
@@dericdomino 😅
Mary Spender said Carlos is strangely sexy.
You just made me re-think the way I look or react to politics in this day and age.
From time to time I just take a vacation from social media, a couple of months a yr, and go through a process of mental detoxification to cleanse my mind bc there's so much toxic stuff we're being bombarded with 24/7 that could drive anybody crazy.
I've been posponing it for reasons I don't need to get into at this time but yes, I think it's time.
Thank you very much dear brother. Be blessed.
@@dericdomino Could you elaborate on that please?
I hadn't heard that name until now.
Thanks.
What a legend
marijuana is not a good thing
Without a doubt, Carlos Santana is a True LEGEND!!! He is at the top of my main influence as a guitarist, my other influence is Al DiMeola. Thanks PRS for your influence in the industry, you are a force to be reckoned & you'll be down in music history as an essential guitar builder! Merry Christmas to you and your family, stay safe my friend, Rock On & God Bless!!!
i never forget the night i first saw CS play. Brisbane 1979. Next morning i bought my first guitar. Have bought 2 customs PRS santana high end guitars, about to buy the third. Thanks C and P for doing this talk. Love you. Love your work. JP
PRS is the best thing / person to happen to electric guitar in the past 35 years.
Just got my first PRS 245 SE New Years eve. I absolutely love. hands down best guitar I have ever owned
Two legends!
What a compliment to receive by a legend " do you have any idea how important you are to people who have yet to pick up a guitar?"
I've been a fan of both PRS guitars and Santana for a while now, but man... This just took me a step further as a fan of you both. I like to vibrate and resonate with the ethos of the makers of things that I own. As if I didn't want to have a PRS already, this has got my itch even stronger. And Carlos giving just important life advice in this form... Geez, what a way to finish 2020 watching this. Thank you both immensely.
Carlos was the Shaman for both Mesa Boogie and PRS guitars!
17:56 One Heart One Love Bob Marley... Thank you Carlos and Paul, you are legend!
Thank you Carlos, you words are gold, as your heart and your sound. I just picked up the guitar of my son couple of months ago, at the age of 46, - now, as all my children play music instruments they like - so we can play music together. Thank you both, gentlemen, for your affection, your golden heart, respect and all your dedication as artists and professionals that make it happen. Heal the Word!
"Walk like a giant. You're one of us now."
I really appreciate how he thinks - or rather FEELS - profoundly when choosing his words mindfully and then what came out as answers and message resonates strongly with me. And I liked very much what he said about PRS guitars and the words he chose to reveal the quintessential essence of your accomplishments and standing in the industry and which qualtities got you to that place as well as what qualities and traits one was wise to nourish when meaning to speak to the world through music. Great stuff, I enjoyed it! Thanks! 🙏
Thank you for everything Carlos! As one of "Jerry's kids" you are one of my greatest heroes.
I own 6 PRS guitars and they are all wonderful. I really like the 35th Anniversary guitar line. Love the thinner, lighter version SE's. Got my first 7 string PRS the other day and am having fun getting use to the extra string. Santana music is in a genre all by itself. Thanks Paul !!
Both of you guys have been an incredible influence to me, from the first Santana album so powerful way back in high school then meeting and working with Paul getting things set up in ‘84. The first job we had when I got there was tying off and soldering a batch of strings for Carlos’ upcoming tour.
The passion and drive of both of you have blessed me I can’t thank you enough for living your lives as you have done.
Thank you so much for this episode and others keep it going and Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄 ❤
This is just awesome.
Thanks for these videos.
Wonderful content, very inspiring. Paul keep these videos coming. Merry Christmas to all and Rock On!
As Carlos is getting older he is more aware of what impact Woodstock had. Carlos...my role model...an example!!
love these interviews, looking forward to seeing much more and looking forward to get my own PRS one day.
I been a fan of Carlos since 69 and i was hooked and when Carlos starting playing PRS guitars i was hooked and with Mesa in the mixed, it was a win win. Paul and Carlos are legends and my music heros. Blessings.
Paul comes across in these videos as a most genuine human being with a huge heart,his friends know him to be wonderful.I bow to you Sir.
If you watch his videos from the 80’s he’s the same guy.
@@gredmer Would not suprise me.He’s very inspirational.
Thanks, you two!
Great interview. Thanks.
Integrity, honesty and talent. These qualities are rarely found in the same person. Thanks Paul.
Love love love Carlos Santa! So thoughtful, self reflective, humble, honest and transparent.
My dream guitar like my dream car Ferrari is a PRS Custom 24. Carlos Santana is a living legend of PRS guitars. Thanks Paul for this video.
Two masters of their craft.
Just bought a PRS for myself for Christmas. A gift of me to you! Thanks Paul for your Expressional Creation and Carlos for your Devine Inspiration.
Wow.....this is amazing
Just love some of his comments about playing music! Very good conversation!
I am grateful to you both in so many ways x
Awesome conversation, I love the philosophical honesty of both Carlos and Paul.
Through the inspiration of the greats mentioned they retain their own identity.
I love you both.🙏
Carlos, a legend that changed prs forever ...
Awesome video Paul and Carlos!
Haha “I like that answer”
How beautiful was that? “ When you send my guitar it arrives in tune “ what a lovely conversation. 🙏☺️
This is how you get to work with the greatest artists!
by being down to earth and respecting each other!
F*nder take notes!
hilarious..sultana is a B grade guitarist. don't worry all the A graders played fenders..hendrix, clapton, srv
@@raindogred thats back in the day yeah. Nowadays fender became greedy and forces their artists to use fender rigs exclusively. Also santana never was a b grade guitarist he is a woodstock legend and genius.
And, I got to see Carlos play in St. Petersburg one night when I was driving back to Miami. I stayed for the 3 encodes and arrived back on duty with my ears still ringing and heart beating with the drums and blood pumping sweet licks and melody. Thanks Carlos for the amazing notes strung out from the heart.
He never played in Russia
Hooray. I just got my first prs (se) recently and its a wonderful guitar. Thanks Paul and thanks Carlos. Legends! Great stuff 😊😊
thank you Paul for making my '86 Signature Series #4; just wonderful..Carlos Rocks!
Love it Gracias
Noodling on my prs singlecut right now. Great couple of guys, both made and still making history.
Where have u been Mr. Santana? We miss you!!
This was the perfect day for this
Carlos Santana is the man; who got me into "latin music". Who can't feel the rhythms of Africa in "Soul Sacrifice"? It is there and in your body. Some day I will own a PRS guitar.
You guys are fun. Congratulations on your friendship
This was one of the best chats between them. I got my first PRS,the Santana SE 2001 and I love playing it. It also saved a friend's band a couple times when not one but both guitars broke strings and the PRS saved the show 😆.
Carlos- what a legend! I also think Paul is a guitar maker legend too! Love my McCarty 594, Silver Sky and SE Hollowbody 2!
That's why my main guitars for doing anything that counts are PRS guitars. You aren't worrying about the guitar...I didn't even realize that..I was always tuning that G on the gibsons...and afraid to touch the trem too hard on the strat. On my PRS guitars..I just play the music.
There will never be a PRS ‘Hello Kitty’ model, never a sell out!
Totally, but if they make one I'll buy it !! :)
AWESOMENESS DEFINED ON EVERY LEVEL !!!! :)
Much respect to you both! #Legends
Thank you Carlos and Paul for your contributions to the music industry, I am blessed to have a 58/15 LE custom 24 and it is by far the best sounding, playing guitar I own....thanks again Paul
Nice interview.
Carlos is such a beautiful soul.
The First live performance by an international act that I saw as a teenager was Santana - 1978. In Australia back up by Eddie Money and Russel Morris.
What an experience - it is embedded in my memory banks like it was yesterday.
Carlos Santana is one of those unique musicians that maintained a continuity in musical creative output over his entire professional life.
He didn’t appear to have any distractions or derailments along the way......he’s still going in his 70s.
His first factory was in the attic of the Ram's Head Tavern on West St in Annapolis, less than a mile from here (before it became a music venue). I knew one of his cohorts in the early 1990's, who started with Paul, dragging the guitars to concerts (I had never even heard of PRS). It was sheer tenacity, innovation, and high standards that built his success. Thankful that he never gave up.
Hi Paul and Carlos, Christmas tomorrow. Send me a guitar 🎅. Have a good one and thank you for these conversations.
I bought my PRS 594 and my Swart AST Pro and have been having so much fun!
I thought Santana would be older. Looking good, dude.
can you imagine the fun and smiles on the Lord's face when he leads certain individuals to their calling. Carlos as a boy hearing the guitar pounding out ... typical example. What a gift of talent God gave Carlos and he believes in Jesus to. well done Carlos .
I love my prs custom 24 thanks Paul for building the best guitars ever
Carlos isn’t kidding about PRS’s showing up in tune. I worked at Guitar Center for over a year and 98% percent of their guitars would should up in perfect tune. Including the SE range. Only guitar company that was remotely true for.
25% of my guitar collection are PRS for a reason. 75% of my playtime is spent on them. You can tell Paul cares about the guitars I have on the wall as much as he does the ones on his.
For some reason I think the show wouldn’t be what it would be without that intro and that beautiful reverby/beachy song lol
Carlos plays to the person standing in the very last row... and shakes them to their core. Easier said than done
Nice Call Paul & Carlos !
I want a PRS so bad
Wow!
Paul Reed Smith is a pretty special guy to! I might need to add a prs to tge collection
I really want one of these guitars.
John Mayer and Carlos... Thanks guys 👍
That was one mighty fine interview folks. Hey man I got a 2001 prs se Santana ( korean built ✌🏾) and it is a fine playing instrument that I could afford at the time, ( and it came with a gig bag ✌🏾 ) but now I'm thinking about modding the guitar with some more recent pups and a tail piece / bridge from prs , any suggestions for me.
I love PRS guitars and I have a few of them, my fav is a Santana III made in USA
The results from the commercial interests that PRS shares with Santana .
*Santana* the #1 of our time ...
Gotta find a way to afford a prs now...Carlos is right. What legends, respect 🖖🏽
well put paul. Makes me wonder what level jimmy would have got to on guitar if he were still here. His legacy is unparalleled considering the time he did it
Carlos brags, "Everytime Paul send me a guitar, it arrives in tune!" But does it also arrive in a hardshell case???
Mine came in a gig bag 😂😂🤣
@@TitoSilversax Carlos' arrives via helicopter.
AMEN Mr. Carlos! Jesus Jesus Jesus!
I do the same thing. I call up my musician friends on a daily basis. The only difference is we are all tired, frustrated, out of work and broke. Hehehehe.
After hearing Carlos hum Soul Sacrifice, I had to go back and watch the video from Woodstock!
💜💜💜
Paul is a fucking legend
I gotta be honest, i worked as a guitar tech at guitar center for a while, the ONLY guitars that we never needed to set up were PRS, im not endorsed by PRS (i play Kiesel mainly) so this is an honest fact, brilliant guitars.
Absolute nonsense, I think you're getting confused with Gibson!
My live rig is either a SSky or a CU 24 into a King Snake, No 175 which CS handsigned……lucky me…..
I still play my yahama SBG because of him !!!!!!!
So when Mayer will have the honor to play with Carlos ? Whats going on ?
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Carlos is the Worldwide Ambassador for Marin County!
don't let your ego go to less than
