    about six years ago I singed up for a guitar class at a local community collage at night and it completly changed my life and I found a best friend forever who taught the class, he is now retired and we still get together and play.Thats what I am grateful for.

    To share my gratitude as far as my guitars, I am grateful i can play. In 2014, i had a stroke and had to be air lifted from pahrump Nevada to las vegas. I temporarily lost all function in my left arm. Just to be able to play, I am grateful and am starting to prepare for to play in my church worship group.

      I am sorry to hear that. glad you recovered. I have no idea what I would do if anything that would harm my playing happened to me It's all I do. Eat, sleep, and breathe guitar and mandolin.

    Late fall 1968 I stopped at the local music shop and there was a barely used 1968 Framus Texan 12 string. I fell in love with it but at 16 years old there was no way I could afford it. I raved about that guitar but realized my parents could not afford it as a Christmas present, so I didn't even ask. 6:00 am Dec 25 1968, there was a guitar case tucked semi hidden behind the tree. I was astounded hen I opened it to find that Texan. She still sounds as sweet and plays so easy as she did that morning and I play her often. I was blessed to have parents who's first priority was always us kids. In a couple of weeks is my 52nd anniversary together with my sweet Texan. WHAT A YEAR... MY FIRST REAL KISS, MY DRIVERS LICENSE, AND MY TEXAN

    I just watched this video. A guitar friend emailed it to me. I came here, immediately subscribed and am now writing this. My guitar gratitude has 3 points to it, far too much to fully explore in a 1 minute video. Let’s get to it....
    1) I’m thankful for my friend Pat “Country” Corbett. We become neighbors several years ago and that developed into a musical bond that can’t be broken, no matter how hard we try to break it 😂
    My soul brother Pat, thank you❤️
    2) My mother has allowed me to pursue a musical path that I always dreamed about but for a number of reasons never persued. When you read my 3rd gratitude moment, it’ll make more sense. Thanks momma ❤️
    3rd) March of 2019, I was injured in an incident that can only be described as bizarre and tragic. I nearly died and sustained serious injury to my right arm/wrist/hand. Long, dismal story short, I resumed playing in April 2020, even tho I’m still limited by my injury. Once again, music has saved my life and my sanity. Thank you God for this gift ❤️
    This is my initial exposure to this channel. One video, I’m a brand new subscriber and I can’t wait to see more. Yes, I have a RUclips channel, feel free to check me out. Constructive criticism is always welcome but I also hope you enjoy what I’m doing. Have a great day, I’ll look forward to the next video ☮️❤️🎶

    I really appreciate this show, I'd like to share this with you. In 2003,4,5 a dear friend passed away, we all went to church together, Mr Booth passed away, his widow called one day wanted me to come see her. I did, she gave me Fraleys 194? 00018 Martin , wow l was overjoyed to say the least! That guitar pulled your soul out when playing. To shorten my story the guitar was stolen. Identifying marks were bubble marks on the back of my guitar, from a vinyl strap Mr Booth left in the case and laid the guitar on. I sure would like to have it back , but that would take a miracle, thanks for listening

But seriously, for us guitar geeks, THIS is exactly what it means to feel the spirit of a vintage guitar, this is what it means to show compassion to other guitar players around the globe. And this is how every single person should be treated; with dignity, respect, love, and honor. Truly, this story inspired me like none other, Tony. Thank your for connecting me with guitar geeks that I can relate to and encouraging me to continually show selfless acts of love.

    I enjoyed this video very much and thanks for your amazing passion within each subject you present. I followed the Jeremy The Guitar Hunter story from day one and that final YT video when Mike meets Raymond and Lucas blew me away i'm so glad you shared it too. Otis Gibbs is a character and he does have some amazing stories been watching a few, he is a great story teller for sure. And I keep hearing his new songs on WUMB radio Boston, Ma. online streaming , so he is getting much deserved play. Last comment, I'm loving the sounds of the Fender Preverb pedal just might have to invest in one soon, great info. when I was in the first grade our Teacher / Nun use to play her acoustic guitar and sing songs for the class, it was so much fun to be exposed to live music like that at age 5 and a few years later in 4th grade this same Teacher/Nun gave a couple of us kids guitar lessons after school. We learned chord shapes and did a few songs out of the church Hymnal , the fun and pride I felt to finally be able to string a few chords together to actually play a song I have never forgotten. My Gratitude is for this Teacher / Nun for taking the time after school to show us kids how to play chords, that was the start for me and I'm very very grateful for this. The good people in an around music and guitar always give so much without even trying. I'm Grateful for this as well. Great Video, Tony, Peace !

    @JPs_Music_Channel 3 года назад +3

    First, Mike is obviously incredibly giving and thoughtful and a very considerate person. The part of the deal of the deal that I don’t understand is that on the one hand, Mike said his commitment is that the guitar can be called back by the family at any time. However, on the other hand, he said that Raymond can call Mike up when he retires and send it to Mike. So is Mike lending it back to Raymond for the next [XX] years, and then expects it back? Or is he committing that if Joshua or other family members want it in the future, they will be able to own it within their family?

I contacted Jeremy the day the video was released and you will also find that I was the 8th person to comment. I made the decision then, long before Jeremy was taking any heat, and actually sent him a deposit the day after the video went public. There was no narrative to change and you need only review the initial comments to find the real story.

      Hi Dave, I’m Michael, the guy in the video. I agree with you. What I did is not comparable to what our men and women in uniform do for all of us- EVERY DAY. I’m sorry you interpreted it this way and I’d guess Tony wasn’t implying this either. I’m fortunate to be reminded every day what our freedom means because I continue to have the pleasure of working with those in uniform. My entire career has been in support of those who serve and my father and many other family members are retired servicemen too.
      Tony did his best to convey what transpired but there is much more that wasn’t captured. Allow me to add additional context.
      During my drive home I had a great deal of time to think. Actually, what the video doesn't show is Mr Raymond shared with me he lost his granddaughter last year in a car accident and he had written a song for her. I asked him if he wouldn't mind playing it for me and he did. It was BEAUTIFUL. During the 2.5 hours that I spent with them playing and singing a train happened to roll-by during the song and even blew its whistle. I couldn't believe it! Of all times to interrupt us it had to be on THIS song!!! Well, little did I know there was much more to the story. When I returned home and shared with my family how this train lumbered through the song at the most inopportune time I jumped up, grabbed my phone and rewatched the video. What I found was the train came lumbering through the song beginning at time stamp 3:17. I immediately texted Josh and asked him if there's any significance with the numbers 3:17. He said no and wasn't following my train of thought- no pun intended. I then rephrased the question and asked him if March 17 meant anything to the family. I couldn't believe when he responded back to me that it was significant to them. It's Mady's birthday- his sister that had passed last year. Now I KNEW this is why I'm involved. God and Mady chose me to be the one to return that guitar back to her grandaddy, the very guitar he used to write that song. Mady, I believe, was the one who made the train roll-by to signal to her grandaddy that she LOVES the song and that she is still with him. I'm hopeful that she was also signaling to me for a job well done. Don't get me wrong here- I give GOD ALL THE CREDIT here because I know I would have come up with a thousand reasons to not get involved. I called Jeremy the following day and told him of my intentions that the guitar is now there's- FOREVER. My job is done and this is how the story ends.
      If you are interested in hearing Mady's song you can listen around 3:17 to hear the train begin coming through.
      Here’s the link to the song
