Lemmo, this Strat is amazing and your playing, as always, is superb. Your rendition of "Beat It", is now my favorite of that song. Your nuanced playing, Brandon's always "on-point" history and spec details and Jen's amazing camera work and video production make these feel beyond professional. This team's love of music and guitars is always on display. Kudos and thank you!
‘Life is full of important choices’…and I choose to watch Guitar of the Day on Norman’s Rare Guitars. I love listening while doing the dishes up here in Winnipeg. Keep up the good work!
Guitar of the day is how I get my day started Everyday mike and Brandon you guys are the Coolest people on the planet....much Love to you all especially Norm God Bless...
Agreed. I am a new subscriber but have watched daily for quite a while (my husband has been a subscriber). Love that Norm is getting better and his young people are taking great care in his absence. Michael, your "important choices" t-shirt rocks...would love to find out where to purchase these! Thanks for all your great work, Norm, Michael, Jen, Brandon, and special guests🎸
Norm has quite the Hat Trick of Talent with these three youngsters. Great selection of music, eye opening facts about the guitar and builder and presented in a way that was present to watch. Gotta love Jen’s 😆 Laugh! She needs to get out in front of the camera on occasion. Love to see her giggle in person.
I love how people are just casually wandering around in the background. If I heard this I'd be standing there gawking. No need to cool guy, Norman's customers! Give Lemmo his love!
Great Fender Strat, all the sounds. In Michael’s hands everything sounds good, of course. But a great Strat through a Black Face Deluxe Reverb is a match made in guitar heaven. Guitar and amp together probably 8-10 K. Man, that guy can play! One of the best Strat tones I’ve heard on GOTD.
Hey! I have the same exact shirt as lemmo! people also have the same reaction when they read the front only lol now I’m going to feel even cooler when i wear it tho. Awesome video as usual guys.
do they make a flush 5 way selector switch for th pick up selector switch I like the neck pick up but the switch gets in my way so I have not held onto any of the fenders that I have had due to that.
Such a great sounding guitar but to be honest, Michael could play a shoe box with a shoe string and make it sound insane. What tune did he first play using the neck pickup?
'Relic'd' guitars make me laugh. Like taking a chain and sandpaper to your new 'Vette so it looks cool. Genuine honest wear is always the coolest! The wear is earned, not phony.
The wear is earned 🤡 who the hell has time to go out n tour and just beat up a guitar if someone wants to buy a relic’d guitar let them looks awesome as hell and much cheaper than an original
The car analogy only works if you custom order a car that looks excactly like a 60s corvette and then spec it to look like it has been on the road since the 60s, wich doesn't sound as bad as buying a brand new car and denting it on purpose. It is done all the time in the car world too. People restore old cars but keep the patina or add a little patina to get the the right look.
The relic market puzzles me… I understand artists using replicas of their famous instruments to keep their vintage originals from harm but the average bedroom guitar player, why? It looks cool, that seems to be the consensus. Wouldn’t just playing the guitar and it getting natural wear be cooler? That being said, another phenomenal demo from Lemmo!
Great guitar....they really have great tone, but it always amazes me that someone would pay so much for a guitar made to look like something from the 70's.......me....i'd like it to look brand new. :
Hello from Poland,my friend will be in la in a few days time,please look after him and sell him a t shirt,we are English living in poland.many thanks,love the show.
This is no doubt an awesome guitar. I can’t appreciate the relic thing, it’s just silly. You’re paying a ton of cash for a brand new, awesome guitar that someone has trashed up on purpose just so they can charge more for it because dummies will pay for it. Buy em up boys!
That’s a fact. Play the guitar, it’ll wear itself in. Then when folks tell you how cool it looks, you can smile knowing the relic job only cost practice and actual effort instead of thousands of $.
No, the relic thing is not silly. You're just silly. You guys realise you're in the minority, right? Relics are super popular and it's obvious why they're popular because it's ART. Each relic guitar is completely unique. No one wants an off the shelf shiny factory finish anymore. It's just tacky and lame and has no individuality to it. Who has 60 years to relic their strat by playing it in? And you're not paying thousands of dollars for the relic job. You're paying that for the guitar and the relic is just a feature. Wake up and realise that you're in the minority and relics are now very much a thing.
Sure man, that 60 years of time will be totally worth it just so that I can smile and tell myself "I EaRrNED this relics" when reality no one actually gives a rats arse because you can't tell the difference.
id be so embarrassed every time someone comes up to me at a gig and asks what year that old strat is and id have to say "2021 and i payed alot of money for someone to fck it up, and i bought my way to posing like ive been playing for a long time or have earned a guitar with road character"
It looks like someone dragged it behind a carr. I agree that light wear and finish checking would have been cool. But this? Who the hell would treat a guitar so badly that it looks like that in real life?
Brainy Brandon , Demo Lemmo, joyful Jen , at it again ! sounding GREAT ! Hope Norm"s getting stronger !
These master builders never fail to impress. Not only do they nail the look, but the tone is amazing! Great job with the specs and playing!!
Lemmo, this Strat is amazing and your playing, as always, is superb. Your rendition of "Beat It", is now my favorite of that song.

Straturday is my favorite day of the week. I always love it when Brandon does the spec check. And Lemmo absolutely killed it of course.
‘Life is full of important choices’…and I choose to watch Guitar of the Day on Norman’s Rare Guitars. I love listening while doing the dishes up here in Winnipeg. Keep up the good work!
Guitar of the day is how I get my day started Everyday mike and Brandon you guys are the Coolest people on the planet....much Love to you all especially Norm God Bless...
I love Brandon Sagiloochi’s spec check. Just adds something extra special.
It just doesn't get any better than Straturday !
Dead on ML… life is full of choices! I choose to watch this channel almost daily..it’s worth my time every time!
Agreed.
I am a new subscriber but have watched daily for quite a while (my husband has been a subscriber). Love that Norm is getting better and his young people are taking great care in his absence.
Michael, your "important choices" t-shirt rocks...would love to find out where to purchase these!
Thanks for all your great work, Norm, Michael, Jen, Brandon, and special guests🎸
damn that strat is made for you lemmo. Your playing compliments it just absolutely perfectly
I love all the guitars Mike plays I wish I could have them all,but not enough room.excellent.
Beautiful guitar and amazing playing. Been waiting 16 months with 12 to go for my Masterbuild Tele.
Norm has quite the Hat Trick of Talent with these three youngsters. Great selection of music, eye opening facts about the guitar and builder and presented in a way that was present to watch. Gotta love Jen’s 😆 Laugh! She needs to get out in front of the camera on occasion. Love to see her giggle in person.
Awesome demo lemmo. I dig the sound and vibe of this guitar. And as always good job Brandon and Jin. ✌️
I love how people are just casually wandering around in the background. If I heard this I'd be standing there gawking. No need to cool guy, Norman's customers! Give Lemmo his love!
They probably have to for the image of the store
Way to start out with "Stratosphere". I was blasting that at work today. I love your music Lemmo, keep up the awesome work!
who wrote this song? I love it. Who is the artist?
@@dylanjohn3410 Lemmo did!
Lemmo is one of the all time greats
True dedication during Heat Wave .You can tell how hot it is for you guys and Red guitar to boot with hot Texas Specials .Thanks
Diggin' the theme-and-variation on "Beat It". Lemmo, you make both MJ and EVH proud.
Digging that headstock
Great Fender Strat, all the sounds. In Michael’s hands everything sounds good, of course. But a great Strat through a Black Face Deluxe Reverb is a match made in guitar heaven. Guitar and amp together probably 8-10 K. Man, that guy can play! One of the best Strat tones I’ve heard on GOTD.
Nicest guitar I've heard in a long time. Just beautiful.
Hey! I have the same exact shirt as lemmo! people also have the same reaction when they read the front only lol now I’m going to feel even cooler when i wear it tho. Awesome video as usual guys.
Sounds rather excellent, I'd say! Nice one, Michael!
Sounded great! What's the name of the last song Lemmo was playing?
Some powerful tones coming out of that Strat. Powerhouse rock.
Always big pockets and very full of gear Mr Brandon. Love your amazing tshirt Mike. And will we sse Jen’s face??
5:43 what song is Lemmo playing here? Heard it a few times now and love it
no wonder one needs sooo many guitars.. but this one does a variety of genres. cool
WOW that is just a beautiful-looking guitar. I have a super heavy relic custom Start 56 and I make love to it.
Fantastic GOTD. Great sounding guitar. Michael you are a wizard!
Lovely rendition of Stratosphere, Michael!
Mr. lemmo or is it Mr. shredd o mattic 😎I love listening to you🎸 love the sound and look of that relic strat🎸
Great playing as allways from mike this kid from philly should be playing stadium shows in a big time touring band.
Mr Lemmo can make Chopsticks 🥢 glued together with a single rusted string gound amazing. !
someone was asking me if norm's sells air guitars? i said;. i have no idea i never really seen one. 🙄🤔🎸
There’s nothing like a Candy Apple Red Strat, there’s a reason it’s the guitar emoji.
What is this first great tune-sounds so great and inspiring. Is there an original tune out there or just improvised by Lemmo?
Was wondering the same
Dude u can really make any guitar sing!
Always nice to hear somebody who doesn't wail away like most of the noodlers on RUclips.
Fantastic playing
do they make a flush 5 way selector switch for th pick up selector switch I like the neck pick up but the switch gets in my way so I have not held onto any of the fenders that I have had due to that.
Wow. What a beautiful sound!!!
Such a great sounding guitar but to be honest, Michael could play a shoe box with a shoe string and make it sound insane. What tune did he first play using the neck pickup?
Totally agree, I just can't tell if someone is playing $50 guitar or a $100,000 guitar. It's the player 100%
A Lemmo original called Stratosphere
great ! what is that first song ?
Nice guitar. Looks like the action is a little lower than Lemmo prefers? Does it have a scratch and dent discount?
anyone know what the first song is? 5:43
What gorgeous guitar
What’s the last song Michael plays? I’ve heard him play it before and don’t what it is, original?
'Relic'd' guitars make me laugh. Like taking a chain and sandpaper to your new 'Vette so it looks cool. Genuine honest wear is always the coolest! The wear is earned, not phony.
The wear is earned 🤡 who the hell has time to go out n tour and just beat up a guitar if someone wants to buy a relic’d guitar let them looks awesome as hell and much cheaper than an original

Straturday is my favorite day!
That's Special... How does Jen keep from dancing ??? I'm a Bobble Head right now...
Mike Lemmo is the Tasty Loop God to which I pray
what is the first song you were playing? Im gonna learn it lol
The star of my heart, Orianthi, is gone. The sun has gone out. The mournful sounds of Lemmo's looper complete the job.
This is a keeper, you can tell.
Holy schnikies Mike, just badass!
Michaels playing pulls me out of time and into a vacuum where I do not age.
Lemmo can make a rubber band stretched over a shoe box sound good, still the strat has tone up the ying yang.
You got a fresh style man
Nice time for a 'red' Strat.
RIP Queen Elizabeth.

love these videos
Does anyone know what kind of looper is Mike using?
Fender 2022 with a slab of rosewood but is it Brazilian rosewood?
Custom Shop.

Merci beaucoup Mr Lemmo. Sublime playing. As always.

Lol we get it you don’t like it move on 🤣🤣
Found the old head. It’s like ripped jeans, people dig the rugged look.
That’s a fact. Play the guitar, it’ll wear itself in. Then when folks tell you how cool it looks, you can smile knowing the relic job only cost practice and actual effort instead of thousands of $.

hey kkkk
id be so embarrassed every time someone comes up to me at a gig and asks what year that old strat is and id have to say "2021 and i payed alot of money for someone to fck it up, and i bought my way to posing like ive been playing for a long time or have earned a guitar with road character"
(TMEC)!
Can I have it?
Too much relic (light relicing/mostly checking would have been way nicer) otherwise really cool guitar
It looks like someone dragged it behind a carr. I agree that light wear and finish checking would have been cool. But this? Who the hell would treat a guitar so badly that it looks like that in real life?
I thought the internet trolls said Cali was out of power>
Newsome fires up the generators just for Norm.
Sorry my friend's name is Phil wade.
