Every time I hear you play ML, you always catch a moment where your tone, tempo and phrazing channels some famous person or group. Today was on the middle/bridge pup and you started playing a cool version of the Eagles, One Of These Nights. Outstanding!
Back in 2007, my dad bought me American vintage 62 strat in vintage white. To this day, it remains as my prized possession even though my guitar collection grew bigger over the years. Those new vintage series from Fender can't measure up!
I met Michael not too along. Not only is he an outstanding 6 stringer, but he is an outstanding human being. He told me his main axe is a pre CBS Jazzmaster. GODSPEED Michael.
I saw the color green and right away I thought "there is a strat for Michael Lemmo, he loves the color green and can play the hell out of a strat",.Great #guitaroftheday guys and Jen! thank you once again. Was great seeing Norm today too..makes me happy when he is back in the shop.
Well, happy Straturday to you! A ‘62 is hands down the best year for guitars (and many other things). And, those jazz tones on that beauty are a sound to behold. Great playing, Michael.
I wish fender would go back to this almost black version of sherwood green. It seems like the current iterations of sherwood green has got more of an ocean turquoise/aged lake placid blue tone to it now. It's still gorgeous but I want one of these deep green strats... one day... one day...
If you have one of these or can get one keep it! I think this is the hot rod version, as that’s the one with the 9.5” radius a huge C neck. They did do the 62 reissues in sherwood green but they have a more metallicy finish than the hot rod versions.
What a great guitar. And great playing today, I dig those bluesy/jazzy sounds from “Blue Comet”. Received my copy on a CD last week, wasn’t easy to come by here in Europe, but with a little patience ;-)
The “Hot Rod” 62 reissues have fatter necks, 5 way switch, 9.5 radius and tone control for the bridge pickup (all things that the regular 62 reissue doesn’t have)
I was really fortunate to buy a used one of these a few years ago at an amazing price, mine is in sunburst. And what an amazing Strat it is, never letting go of this one!
I have a 1962 Fender Vintage Reissue. Did not love the The Texas Special Pickups. Replaced them with Chubtone’s 1962 pickups and a grease bucket tone circuit. Also had to shim the neck and adjust truss rod to put some relief in the neck. Action is great now and sounds great! It’s a two color flamed sunburst which is unique. I may sand down the finish on the neck. Too shiny and sticky for my style. I miss not having the micro-tilt and the head stock truss rod opening on this guitar but that’s the way Leo designed it back then!
A friend w lots of dealer connections hooked me up w an actual '62 back in the double naughts. Someone had stripped the paint and replaced 2 of the pickups. I had it repainted by a guy retired from Gibson, ironically . I had him do a pale yellow nitro to evoke aged Olympic White. The P-ups were the actual '62 , a '65, and a Dimarzio which I had rewound to 7k < 8k for the bridge.(yeah , I know dc ohms etc, , but we are comparing oranges to oranges ). I ended up selling the '65 ,which sounded like the "Abby" '69 reissue in every quality, except not as good. I also sold the '62 , because he also hooked me up w a matched set of John Sprung wound '62 clones which nailed the tone 100%. I don't collect antiques for their own sake...The '62 , and the Clones have a darker , more opaque tone than most Strat p-ups due to the bevelled poles, wire (a raging debate), and scatter winding. Its a little hard to tell w the Lemmo signature buried in reverb hook up, but it sounds like Fender has nailed the '62 tone as well. The neck seems to have the same profile also from the quick glimpse during the uncasing and Michael's description.
The tremolo on these float and stay in tune. I have a 2008 it stays in tune for months and it's played everyday. Sheerwood green ones were made with magic.
Great Demo and playing! I have this exact year but in black. Fell in love with the neck and weight of guitar the moment I held her. Mine came with lollar blonde pickups. I ended up buying a used set of 57/62 pickups so I can just say I have all original spec material.
Have 1993 62" AVRI in Fiesta Red and several other Strats, this one and my EJ Thin line are the bees knees. The original owner had it re-fretted and changed the radius to 9.5 . Wonderful guitar
Amazing playing as always, love u Lemmo ! I have a 2004 AVRI '62 Stratocaster Sunburst, bought new in '04, it's been my number 1 for 18 years, I always end up going back to this one, beautiful guitars !
That Sherwood Green is such a cool color......reminds me of Philadelphia Eagles Midnight Green. I'd love to get me am AVRI at some point. Either in Sherwood Green or Dakota Red
So this Sherwood Green reminds me of the Fender that I learned to play on back in 75. The tones on this take me right back. Thank you for bringing it out, really something special for me. BTW, is still around?
Wow, you're an amazing guitar player. I live in an area where there aren't any good guitar instructors but I want to learn to play guitar, can you offer any suggestions for online lessons or otherwise? Thank you...
Michael Lemmo- what technique were you doing at around 17:00? Absolutely stunning work. Almost made me want to trade in the custom shop cc-aged 65 Daphne Jazzmaster I have (you were my inspiration there) for a Sherwood green strat!
Lemmo, you just gave me the urge to own a strat again! I also love green guitars, and feel like they are underrated. Ps I saw Tomo wearing a Lemmo shirt on IG today, where can I get one of those?!
There's a '59 in Sherwood green on line .Don't see many in that colour, tempted , but was looking at a '62 in sunburst. Which way to go? 1st world problems!
Thinking seriously about getting a hot rod 62, but heard that the necks are too huge for small-average hands. Can anyone who has played or owned one share their opinion? Thanks.

Sherwood Green is one of Fender’s most underrated colors.
Não faz sentido falar que é subestimada, cor é algo muito pessoal ou você gosta ou não gosta. Linda guitarra!
Agreed.
Oh yes especially with a mint green pickguard.
@@srxiii2261 definitivamente.
green and purple man
This guitar was stored for most of its life. Crazy to think 2007 wasn't all that long ago, but 16 years fly by fast...
This one is, clearly, a special guitar. Amazing tone and build. Beautiful rosewood and an outstanding sustain. This is a keeper.
Every time I hear you play ML, you always catch a moment where your tone, tempo and phrazing channels some famous person or group. Today was on the middle/bridge pup and you started playing a cool version of the Eagles, One Of These Nights. Outstanding!
When Lemmo breaks out the jazz sound, I turn it up!
It's been a while since I dropped in on this channel. Wow, Lemmo is on a whole different level. Kid's a friggin' musical genius!
Wow, pretty guitar. All the golds, greens and blues pull me in to the fold.

Nope, sorry to contradict, he tells us at 1:55 that his favorite guitar is a Jazzmaster 62 vintage reissue, not pre CBS, unless he has another one...
@@pandorski35000 I believe he does own two JM's
@@noslen954 probably then
62' is the year. Cars and guitars. 62 rock and rolls!
Michael your touch, tone and time are simply as good as it gets. Thank you for so humbly sharing

I could listen to your guitar playing all day, impeccable style.
This guitar has such a colourful attitude! Great demo, Lemmo🔥
Wow that color! Amazing guitar and demo, the second tune is killer!
Really liked this one 👍👍🏽👍🏾👍🏿
That whole set was outstanding.
I only regret that I have but one like to give.

im buying one tomorrow and i dont think ill be able to sleep tonight 😂
Burst shmurst!
Green guitars are a secret world.
And a green Strat? C'mon now.
5 great samplings. Wow, Mike!
Everything about this was good👍👍🤙
I *LOVE* it when there is "more"!! Freaking awesome!!!!
I always watch straturday on Sunday because I am about 9 hours ahead. I love this format maybe even as much as strats hah, greetings from Poland!
On a channel where - really cool - is an overused, dime a dozen. This episode was really cool. I like the guitar and the playing. My hats off to you
Just awesome...great to see you guys in person today with my son..totally digging the looper usage!
I think this Saturday vibe is where Michael shows his talent the best. Just some tasty tunes on a low profile Saturday.
Such talent Michael you are truly gifted. The Reissue Strat was just amazing too, keep the videos coming and all the best with the upcoming dhow
What a great guitar. And great playing today, I dig those bluesy/jazzy sounds from “Blue Comet”. Received my copy on a CD last week, wasn’t easy to come by here in Europe, but with a little patience ;-)
I inherited my dads 62 strat along with his 62 Princeton amp. The neck pick up is the best tone I've ever achieved
The “Hot Rod” 62 reissues have fatter necks, 5 way switch, 9.5 radius and tone control for the bridge pickup (all things that the regular 62 reissue doesn’t have)
Yup, I’ve got one in green.
Love Playing Clapton on Two Amps . Spoonful today ! Every Guitar is Different Like women .............💓
what clapton tune is it? Its been bugging me!
I was really fortunate to buy a used one of these a few years ago at an amazing price, mine is in sunburst. And what an amazing Strat it is, never letting go of this one!
I love the encores at the end
I just love the way lemmo plays guitar its his own style. Very hard to duplicate. Happy straterday. SEE YOU TUESDAY.

After Fiesta Red and Burgundy Mist, my favorite custom color!❤️
For me it's this OR burgundy mist. Then comes white blonde!
Tasty playing Michael!!

Lemmo é um ótimo guitarrista, muito bom.
Happy Stratorday!!
Vintage Reissues are so good, love my 1987 AVRI '57 Stratocaster
Wow..........great guitar! Jazzy!
Think I just found my new favorite strat.
Lemmo it was a mellow way to break into the evening thanks.
Amazing playing as always, love u Lemmo ! I have a 2004 AVRI '62 Stratocaster Sunburst, bought new in '04, it's been my number 1 for 18 years, I always end up going back to this one, beautiful guitars !
I got a -99. Plays perfect, look like a train wreck.
@@kungpuk5186 impossible. they didnt existed yet. You have an avri 62. Thats an avri hot rod 62.
Blue Comet- Outstanding 🔥
Omg! Make it sing Michael 🙏🏻
That's his guitar. Everything fits.
Great playing from Mr. Lemmo as always.
As always killer dude middle position was on🔥🔥🔥
Thanks guys for sharing and for the videos 🤙 still got Norm in my prayers. And hey thanks also have a good set ✌️
Is it possible to do a video about the pedal board you are using for the videos? The tones are fantastic!
One of my fav necks !
Awesome. Love a sherwood green strat

The encore was jaw dropping!
Beautiful music!
This sounds so nice so ill put in my playlist
When Michael does stuff like he did in the final piece, it might be a good idea to have a fire extinguisher next to the couch!
Great playing!
My favourite Lemmo song!!!
Great guitar great job Michael!👍
I've got a '59 AVRI in Sherwood. Definitely a keep forever guitar.
are these guitars finished with nitro or poly
@@RadicalR0nnie nitro
I have the same guitar she is The Queen!
There is nothing wrong with that Strat it sounds awesome
Amazing guitar !
First!! Awesome as always guys!! 👍🤘
4:00 what song is he playing?
Man so killer... anybody have an idea on what Lemmo is playing on that walk down the neck starting at 4:35???
Classe Mondiale !
Superb guitar
Yes! Very nice.
insanity, just insane
Michael, do you decide what you will play before hand or when you hit the couch?
That thing checks all the boxes..
Straturday is my favorite day….or is it Tele Tuesday?? Another great video.
Lemmo is just the man🤘🏽
that strat would look so good with gold hardware 😍
Wow, you're an amazing guitar player. I live in an area where there aren't any good guitar instructors but I want to learn to play guitar, can you offer any suggestions for online lessons or otherwise? Thank you...
"I love green... everybody knows that." - Michael Lemmo
A good strat into a Deluxe Reverb..what could be better?
Reminds me of Tommy Tedesco. He can do anything.
Everytime it’s time for a solo I ask myself wwld. What would lemmo do
Michael Lemmo- what technique were you doing at around 17:00? Absolutely stunning work. Almost made me want to trade in the custom shop cc-aged 65 Daphne Jazzmaster I have (you were my inspiration there) for a Sherwood green strat!
Very nice!
Lemmo, you just gave me the urge to own a strat again! I also love green guitars, and feel like they are underrated. Ps I saw Tomo wearing a Lemmo shirt on IG today, where can I get one of those?!
I sure would love to have that in maple instead of rosewood. Very nice, though.
nice start....oh and my shirt size is large
There's a '59 in Sherwood green on line .Don't see many in that colour, tempted , but was looking at a '62 in sunburst. Which way to go? 1st world problems!
Love Straturday!
More spam saying you won,DONT DO IT, NRG is better than that. Love you guys
I would love to see the opposite side of Jen’s camera. How many people are watching Lemmo play GOTD? Is there an audience we don’t see?? Nice playing!
This strat has a nice deep tone.
Slab Rosewood board, scatter wound pickups
Thinking seriously about getting a hot rod 62, but heard that the necks are too huge for small-average hands. Can anyone who has played or owned one share their opinion? Thanks.
