Michael Jackson tried to buy Kramer in the mid 90’s
Sorry, I can’t believe everything I find on the internet. 😁
Something else related so many people don't know about. Everyone associate's Chuck Berry, Little Ricard, etc, with being the pioneers of Rock n Roll... but there was also a woman who deserves more praise that's almost unheard of now. Her name was Sister Rosetta Tharpe that Sammy G really needs to do a video on. She deserves the recognition and her story to be told more frequently.
@RokDAWG1 Yes, the famous qoute said by Abraham Lincoln!
@Maniac1075 Haha truth!
#10 - yes, Chris Black married a guitar. The marriage didn't last, though, as she was too high strung. He later settled down with a bass.

OMG yes! Ive seen her before! Really amazing woman!! Check this out! ruclips.net/video/Y9a49oFalZE/видео.html and ruclips.net/video/JeaBNAXfHfQ/видео.html
She was ok. Definitely more blues and gospel than rock. Biggest feather in her cap was Hendrix’ affinity for her
@@redram5150bro rock didn’t even exist during her prime. She literally shaped and formed the genre from roots of other branches of music.
@@chrisrva710 all the more reason not to compare or equate her to Chuck Berry, Little Richard, and other Rock pioneers.
@@redram5150 you just couldn't be more wrong lmao
A slight note. The word in the bible is "kithara." While "kithara" is a modern Greek word for a guitar, the biblical "kithara" was classified as a lute, even though it was actually just a lyre with a resonating body. (A lyre is a handheld harp.)
The ancestor of what we would know as a guitar was a Spanish instrument called the vihuela, an instrument which you did mention. That is why acoustic guitars were originally called "Spanish Guitars," to distinguish them from lap steel guitars, which is what we today call "resonators" or "dobros," which people frequently play as guitars without knowing what they actually are.
That is also why electric guitars were originally called "Electric Spanish" guitars, to distinguish them from electric lap steal guitars. For example, look at the classic ES-335. The "ES" means "Electric Spanish."
And so people who make and fix guitars are called luthiers instead of something like guitarriers.
The word "luthier" also applies to violins, cellos, and so on. Although I will agree that is counter-intuitive, when it sounds like it SHOULD only apply to lutes.
Not only are these cool trivia facts, but they are presented very creatively! Awesome video dude ❤
God loves you all! The Father sent the Son to die for you and your sins so that you could experience freedom to the fullest! Believe in Christ's death and resurrection (which sealed the work done on the cross) for your salvation and the forgiveness of sins! Amen! God loves you all! The Father sent the Son to die for you and your sins so that you could experience freedom to the fullest! Believe in Christ's death and resurrection (which sealed the work done on the cross) for your salvation and the forgiveness of sins! Amen! God bless you all, I will keep you in my prayers!!!!
Guitar Forest is now on my bucket list!
Well, there were 2 things I did know. I knew that Leo Fender didn't learn guitar, and I knew that Fender used car paint for their guitars and still do. Very enjoyable and educational. Actually, I believe that Pete Towshend slugged Abbie Hofman in the head with his SG at Woodstock.
Gibson did a similar thing, the custom colors for the Firebird were car colors, but from a later color catalog (apparently DuPont would “refresh” their color palette every 6-7 years or so, giving the car industry new(ish) colors to market to consumers. So this is why Lake Placid Blue and Pelham Blue are almost, but not quite similar. (Cardinal Red is also close to one of the Fender reds).
Great video! I'm from Indianapolis, and I laughed when you mentioned Colts owner Jim Irsay. It's actually pronounce ER-say. A friend of mine got the call to jam with Irsay, and Irsay let him play the Jerry Garcia guitar!
I came here for this comment. Fellow hoosier haha
you are killing it with this movie level cinematography
I want to use a few of these facts in my bar trivia show. Good stuff!
These are all cool but number 9 is something I never ever stopped to think about. That's pretty mind blowing.
Wow, I only knew about 5 of those before, but now I know 21! Thanks Sammy G!
Marvellous video! Love a bit of trivia
Dude, that Casio EG-5 EleKing Guitar that you have hanging on the wall is one of my favorite guitars of all time. Very nice.
Great video idea 💡 man! Very entertaining 👏
Love this content!
Totally cool vid!
Thanx!!!
Great video Sammy!! Love that there are more possible guitar solos than there are stars 🤯!!! 🤘🎸🤘
Stars in our Galaxy, Not stars in the whole universe.
@@rollingslothmachine3431 nope universe dude. Did the math, solo possibilities are infinite.
@@DavidPerry-ui2qz I was talking about what Samurai Guitarist claimed in the video.
I might add though, that solo possibilities may be wast, but they are not infinite.
As the parts they are made out of are finite by design, the possible combinations can't be infinite.
It also stands to argue how many of these possible combinations actually sound anyway decent.
@@rollingslothmachine3431 The number of possible guitar solos is virtually infinite, as it depends on various factors such as the length of the solo, the style of music, the complexity of the phrasing, and the improvisational skills of the guitarist. With countless combinations of notes, techniques, and musical ideas, there is an immense range of possibilities for guitar solos. The creativity and imagination of musicians continue to expand the boundaries of what is possible. -A.I.
Music is literally comparable to the infinite vastness of an expanding infinite universe. Even A.I. thinks so.
Cool info,thanks Cheers 😊
Not apropos to this particular video, but whenever I watch your YTs, I go pick up my guitar and noodle for a while. Thanks.
Dadd9add11 is used in Leo Kottke "The White Ape" which sounds like something you might play...beautifully. thanks for all the great chords i use them and love them.
5:01 I think Death by Audio has a new pedal.
Therapist: "Giant Sammy G isn't real"
*Giant Sammy G* : 1:20
Here's another: Tabs were invented in the 1300s for organ, but it was common for lute music a couple centuries later.
Great editing and content.
This was TRULY FUCKING COOL!!! lol I loved all of those tidbits good sir! 🙏🏻
Soo glad You mentioned spring...
We're having a snowstorm tonight, here in Denmark
If a guitar is a weapon, a BC rich warlock has to be considered a deadly weapon
I got a bc rich warlock lmao
It would be considered one of those mall ninja swords with non functional spikes and rainbow colored hardware
Very nice video, and I did not know these things, so thank you. I will say grandfather played a vihuela.
Awesome!! Great video!!!
Sammy you missed the biggest guitar boom of all, in the early 2000s when guitar hero took off.
I played a 5 string Steinberger bass for years in sketchy bars. It was great on crowded stages but the perfect weapon for fighting your way out!
Thank you for giving me the facts. I knew some of the facts in the video, but some blew my mind.
That second fact was pretty cool.
That reminded me, Japan makes some pretty cool stuff, Ibanez, Takamine, ESP and the Japanese branch of Fender all make pretty sweet axes.
i actually knew a bunch of these but still learned something new still, being from indiana and working in music stores for a bit you hear about the guitars the colts owner has aloooooooot
This is sick
Yes. Pub quiz this Sunday.
7:34 Jeez, Sammy, you had me legitimately worried! 😮
This is incredible
The oldest guitar is in the Musical Instrument Museum in Phoenix, plan at least 2 days to see everything. Every musician should visit at least once!!
“First offender?”
“Nah, first a Gibson… then a Fender.”
You need to take us on field trips to your local music shops and some local music.
Fwiw, I saw the Stones in Dallas where Keith Richards hit a "fan that had jumped onstage" with his guitar. I later saw two different videos from other cities on that tour where he did the same thing. It was all for show.
Interesting fact. When I got my first electric guitar I put a set of new strings on it, I tuned it an octave too high. 😆
How on earth did the strings not break?
@@ursula3438
The high E didn't until I played it. It was then that is was told it was an octave too high. 🤪
Some times you've got to laugh. 🤣
It's pretty imposible to tune a E first string an octave higher, I mean not even with 10. Gages strings
@@javiermaldonado6
Improbable not impossible, I think it was just luck.
Cobain brained a security guard during a show. He was crowd surfing and they were playing Love Buzz and instead of catching and pulling Kurt back he started kind of slamming his hand upside Kurts head and then the blood started to flow.
my friend played in a roadhouse bar band, he only played a classic Steinberger cos he would use it like a baseball cat doing bar fights and it would never go out of tune for his next set , and ive seen it in action, we played in the lounge bar and he played in the public bar,
World smallest violin: *exists*
Worlds smallest guitar: allow me to introduce myself
I did know the biggest and smallest guitars because of samuraiguitarist’s video on world records. It’s a few years old, but I stumbled across it last week.
Ive been pretty close to a bang of thunder. It is probably the most awesome way Ive had the shit scared out of me.
I knew all of these because you just got them off Reddit so they're all common knowledge lol
If you want help with that stage, I'd be more than willing. I live in Winnipeg and built a giant castle years ago with a slide, if you need a reference of my capabilities.
16, 17 and 20. Those are the ones I knew before. Impressive facts!
Jim Irsay actually tours with a band and he puts all those gutairs on display at every show and I got too see em!
Would love to see you jamming/making some music with the 1850 sample..
I've seen the giant guitar! Unfortunately, it was in a fairly bad state of disrepair when I saw it in the museum and didn't work very well at all when I attempted to play it with myself plucking the string and my buddy fretting
18. I knew about the forrets/farm thing, Leo not playing and the fender colors^^ But I enjoy this fast paced format.
Wait, the first ever guitar lick recorded was Djent?
Sammy i Thought you would have mentioned that the guitar was designed to be played left handed with right-handed stringed with standard tuning
Lol panicked at the end.
I saw Jim irsay’s guitar collection at a free concert he put on with people like Kenny Wayne Sheppard, Buddy Guy, Ann Wilson, Steven Stills
I actually didn't know those, impressive, might be the first time this happens
I "played" the world's largest guitar when that exhibit was in town.
I'm in Winnipeg, kinda handy with a tools, I have a bass, a drummer, and I want to break that record with you
Leo Fender started a second guitar company in the 70's, called G&L. Many of the models are near clones of his Fender-branded guitars, with various modifications to the original specs.
Wait, i thought that was common knowledge.
@@fahadalghamdi9316 It's not common knowledge at all. At guitar shops I go to most people are surprised when I mention them as a perfectly good guitar to consider, and then mention it's the L in the name. (Edit: using my phone that insists on spell checking the word first instead of guitar)
@@KarstenJohansson I see, then prehaps the next one would come as an even BIGGER shock, Leo fender also founded the "Music Man" brand along with 2 fender employees. He stayed in the background so he would not get in trouble with CBS when they bought Fender instruments from him.
after a while, he cut ties with "music man" and found G and L.
#12. I had no idea that people have been djenting that long.
5:03 dope industrial beat tbh
I did know a few, such as Fender not being a player, the overlap between guitar colors and auto paints, and Jim Irsay (not Isray) and his collection.
0:39 It's a Fernandez BURNY CUSTOM! I got one with a natural wood finish, it's HEAVY for an "S-style" guitar - but it's ironically a Japanese-made "Lawsuit Strat" - look at that headstock! Look at the backwards F in Fernandes! I've read (This was on the Internet so I'm sure it's Perfectly True) that back in the 1970s Fender sued and some Judge blocked these from coming into a US port, and a shipment was confiscated off the boat and the neck on every one was chopped off!
But then that looks like an authentic authorized Fender strap. Also, I presume this was in Japan, where that guitar has always been perfectly legal.
I knew #16, but the rest were new to me.
Hi Sammy!!!!
is the proto guitar at the MIM museum in AZ??
You almost had me! Your fatal error was throwing in Rob Scallon. Good game, sir.
Devin Townsend has a giant Framus Flying V he plays live some times
7:22 - "You only get one set of ears; you gotta protect them!" So true. I watched Sound Of Metal. Hearing loss is a real risk that musicians deal with every day!
I just broke 13. just last week or so when it was below -40°C… albeit I was the only one at my “gig” but yeh 🥴😂
Coldest gig should be yours for life living in Winnipeg ....lol
I was 4 out of 21, which is better than I did on most of my differential equations tests in college.
Sounds like you need to integrate this info into your studying somehow.
Yup. Didn't know most of that stuff, all right. Pretty good vid.
Me: watches video again
Samurai: Impossible...
I like how Sammy G is still editing his video on the Laptop
correct me if im wrong, but for number 9 wouldnt you use the choose function instead of raising it to a power? Since youre figuring out how many 16th notes and how many notes there are then surely it would be 480 choose 49 which is still a massive number (≈ 3.126×10⁶⁷)
7:54 Yeah, I’m in Maine and it is not spring
As a Hoosier (Indiana native) I felt pain at the way he said Irsay's name.
Sammy you ate so cool
I laughed when i read the title of this video. "I KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT GUITAR" But other than Leo never learning to play, and the giant flying V, which I've actually seen, you got me! I didn't know all of that other stuff! Good call.
WOW, such creative storytelling and scene shifts. Impressive
SO when is Rob Scallon going to play that giant guitar in TX?
6:03 is a vihuela i play it sometimes but its alright
If you have a double neck(and double body) Flying V is it then a Flying W?
DO ONE ABOUT BASS!🎉🎉🎉🎉
"Bro can I borrow some earplugs" - drummers everywhere
i now know 21 extra things about guitar.
I knew all of these
Ok maybe just the ones about Leo Fender, the pedal board, and the paint
Eyyyyy, I knew a couple of them. 16 and 20
Gosh darn Winnipegers ! LOL !
I like this video
The only one's I knew were: Biggest guitar in the world, biggest "pedalboard" in the world and Guitars having the same colors as cars back in the day. So overall pretty good job of a video, but the first two mentioned would be pretty popular in my opinion and the last one I kind of only know actually because I'm very into that era of cars. So it kind of just goes hand in hand.
It's still a thing with the paints. I'm learning the craft and we commonly use car paints.
Number 14. Its not Jim isray it is Jim Irsay pronounced Ur-say. I have seen this collection. It is absolutely insane. Btw. I love the Sunday vids. Hope to see more. Thank you for putting out such good content.
DANGIT
I knew I was going to blunder something up
He paid 4.5 million for the Cobain guitar.
I knew like a third of these
I actually knew about number 17 and 20.
