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.

OMG yes! Ive seen her before! Really amazing woman!! Check this out! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Y9a49oFalZE.html and ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JeaBNAXfHfQ.html
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."
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.
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!
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.
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
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.
@@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.
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.
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.
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.
@@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.
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,
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'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
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.
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!
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)
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.
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.
In the bands, how do they decide who is going to play the solo of the song? who writes the song? who writes the solo ? the lead guitarist ? secondary guitarist and the guitarist vocalist ?
It’s common knowledge only drummers are allowed to write songs. Singers write the solos but only the guitarist can play them. Bass players aren’t allowed to talk at all
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.
Dr. Hot Licks set that record at Guitar Center in Arvada, CO. For years after that he would bribe us employees there into recommending him as a guitar teacher with Little Caesars pizza. I ate so much of that garbage I can barely be in the same room as it now without feeling sick to my stomach.
