Legit conversation I had with the 3 guitar guys in my hometown's largest guitar store. They unanimously said that the most impressive guitarist that they had ever seen in the store was this guy who just walked in one day and played the sweetest simplest little licks, but with so much soul that their jaws dropped. Turns out he was Jackson Brown's lead guitarist and they were doing a show that night. Let that sink in, the most jaded guitar shop guys were most impressed by soulful simplicity.
@@bryanh3057 riiiight. Ya no, I was part of this guitar group. And they'd have a night where everyone would post what they been working on, and 80% of what was posted was just noodling to youtube backing tracks, which would be fine if they all didn't have that generic blues "play with feel" sound to it. It's good to mix it up, cause that simple pentatonic blues just gets sooooo old. Every video would start with the same bend 😂 then 4 notes on the pentatonic
Was in my tiny local shop, two guys walked in, grabbed two ESPs and proceeded to play the entire “Welcome Home (Sanitarium)” matching James and Kirks’ tone PERFECTLY. They then bough the amps they were testing out and left. Another guitar shop story, Mike the son of the owner and the resident instrument tech (he could fix anything, even accordions because that was the shop’s first instruments back in the day) was demoing a wireless system for someone, who couldn’t believe how far the range was. Mike grabbed a red strat, plugged in the wireless transceiver, started playing and walked out the door and down the street. He made it a whole block and a half, no problem(and he made a sale)!
Played Frame by Frame once while waiting at G-Center, the manager walked over and thanked me and said they don’t hear much King Crimson. It must have been a particularly rough day of not quite entering Sandman.
You know you've made it when your practice room resembles a guitar store and you no longer have to go to actual guitar stores to make guitar-store-related skits! Congrats on all the success! :D
@@sirspongadoodle Welcome to RU-vid. I think the main reason Tyler gets so much flack for this is unlike sponsorships on most other RU-vidrs it's pretty easy for him to turn it into a entire video or at least use whatever gear he's sponsoring throughout. He could tone it down when he does it, but I don't blame him for it. People also think he's sponsored by a lot more than he is just because he happens to like certain brands, gear, etc.
My jaw dropped when you mentioned Limo Wreck. I learned that song top to bottom including the solo. I'm a huge Soundgarden fan, it made my night. Soundgarden has so many great songs, if you're reading this and only have listened to thier handful of popular songs you're missing out.
Same!!! Learned all of ‘Superunkown’ and ‘Down on the upside’back in sophomore year in high school. Saw them back in 2017 in Jacksonville FL I think weeks before Chris passed. Guys around me were shocked I was singing along to ‘Kyle Petty son of Richard’ lmao. I’m hard pressed to find anyone who knows of Soundgarden lately. Their b-sides are hit or miss. RIP Chris Cornell
I'm a new guitarist and ever since I came over your content, I have enjoyed guitar even more. Thanks for all you do and I am looking forward to what Guitar Super Systems has to offer.

I work in a guitar store and I can confirm, at least at my store, that Stairway is no longer forbidden. But got dangit if I hear the opening riff to slow dancing in a burning room one more time I may actually light the building on fire and bust a move into eternity.
@@amedeobini7517 beyond stupid to give damn like that and miss out on expanding ur tool set kid should learn it. Show all the others how it's done. Homie that disagrees sounds like a douche canoe. Probs bffs. With their guidance counselor lol
Ive become so desensitized to meme culture and the constant loop of shitty-hahasofunnyvalidatemebylikingmycomment- comments that I havent busted out a loud laugh at a comment in a long fucking time. Good one m8
Sometimes the riffs you play at guitar shops don't even need to be impressive to just start up wholesome conversations about music. I took my guitar in to the tech to get it set up for 12-56's so I could play easier in b Standard. When the tech gave me my guitar I plugged into an orange and played Electric Wizard for about 5 minutes before the dude working there came over and struck up a convo about Wizard. He was a cool guy, loved doom. We spoke for a while and I ended up buying a JHS fuzz pedal while I was there on his recommendation. We're all in there because we love music, I forget that sometimes under all the gear and nerves of playing in front of the staff.
Soundgarden is one of my favorite bands and Limo Wreck is one of my favorite songs by then and I am blown away that it was in a video by a major RU-vidr..... Last song I ever expected to hear. Amazing
“Limo Wreck” is one of my absolute favorite Soundgarden cuts…so good that I included it in an assignment for a high school literature/poetry class regarding songs with my favorite lyrics.
I was a big fan of Mailman,4th of July, and Like Suicide from Superunknown. It's nice just to hear someone reference one of the not singles from that album.
I played Say Hello 2 Heaven on a used AC30 in a guitar store once and the guy working there said "Is that Temple of the Dog? Cool." Kept me going for awhile
I walked in to a music store here in Dublin a few years ago, and someone was playing the fast section of King Crimson’s “Fracture” on guitar. A nice change, that was.

Ive played guitar for 4 years, and ive watched this channel every since i started playing, and always dreamt of being as good as this guy, and seeing him play Get Lucky, which is one of my go to songs, makes me feel a lot of improvement has happened in the time ive played.
I've heard you've been having issues in the form of hostilities while trying to play "Stairways to Heaven" in guitar stores. Here are some suggestions on how to play the riff in guitar stores without the store owner getting too suspicious. 1. Assuming you are in a key of A minor. With the C key raised to C# start by playing "Hotel California" and when the coast is clear, swap out the C# key with the C key and then play the forbidden riff while at all times observing the guitar store owner incase you have to quickly switch C back to C#. 2. Just play the song backwards, by the time the store owner realizes what is happening, you would have already finished or started. 3. Playing "Stairways to Heaven" in a store where you already tried suggestion 1 should also be possible. Assuming you are in a key of A minor with the C key tuned to C#. As not to raise any suspicions with the guitar owner, you should be able to do the same trick mentioned in suggestion 1 but this time start with "Humpty Dumpty" and when the coast is clear you should easily be able to switch to the forbidden riff by lowering the C# key by a semi tone. I'm sure you can come up with better tactics. Good luck with playing the forbidden riff.
Great work Tyler! Awesome video. I've been following your channel for a little more than a year and I have learned so much from your videos, every time I watch your channel it makes me want to practice more and get better at guitar. Keep up the great work Tyler!
Great job with the Larry character. Using the dark light, then he flips and wants to jam. It had a Stephen King feel for a quick moment. Great use of character development and story.
Hey tyler just got a yearly plan for guitar super system and i am impressed the layout is very manageable and the curriculum has lots of lessons that i will actually use. Props for making a wonderful way of learning guitar. 🎸
Other day I was in Samash playing some John Mayer slow dancing in a burning room and someone across the store started soloing over top of it. We’re friends now :)
I once played a section of “Discipline” by King Crimson in a shop. It was not the cleanest rendition but I got a compliment and a 10 minute conversation out of it.

That opener solo you played when you kicked into Crazy Train used to give me so much grief when I was a kid. I practiced it for hours trying to get each note nice and smooth. P.S. I love that old blue Strat.

Two true stories about playing odd bass riffs: 1. A long time ago in a Guitar Center I played the intro to A Better Place, A Better Time and an employee stopped and said "wait...is that streetlight manifesto?" Yup it sure was. 2. A little over a year ago in a local music store, while testing out a used bass I eventually purchased that day (the one in my pfp!), I was playing the intro to The Grudge and an employee overheard me and was trying to figure out where he heard that before. I played a couple other obscure bass lines from Tool (I think Disposition was another) and they finally recognized the band. Obscure songs are the best because the people that know genuinely appreciate the effort.
Frame by frame but they can actually do both parts at the correct rhythm. The most common times I’ve gotten other people to notice me in guitar stores is playing elp on either guitar or bass, or early genesis
Again - I am so ****ing stoked I found your page. Not only are you a gangster on guitar, but your videos always make me laugh and smile. Kick ass - thank you!
No homo bro but I lowkey click on on your videos to just watch and listen to you play. You actually inspire and motivate me pick up my guitar and keep practicing to get better everday. Im deff thinking of joining GSS very soon so keep it up man!
Great video! I'm an old, classic rock guy, so the songs/riffs I tend to play in a guitar store include: Hocus Pocus by Focus Mississippi Queen and/or Never in my Life by Mountain Aqualung (intro riff plus middle guitar solo) Hendrix version of Come On (Part I), with guitar playing the vocal melody China Cat Sunflower (Grateful Dead) Low Rider a la Gary Hoey Carry On My Wayward Son (Kansas) Castles Made of Sand (Hendrix) Reelin' in the Years (Steely Dan) Etc. Usually something there will catch the attention of a customer or store employee.
I walked into my local music shop one afternoon and saw a guy with an explorer absolutely blasting through Opium Trail by Thin Lizzy, since then it has been the first song I play every time I practise.

My favorite thing to play at a guitar store, the one I play every single time, is *immediately forgets every riff I've ever learned, what even is a guitar, I'll just awkwardly put it back down*
Hey Tyler I got a video idea for the habits of Joe Perry, I think that he is one of the best and most pure rock guitarists out there. When I listen to Rock you gotta love Aerosmith and Aerosmith isn’t Aerosmith without good ole Joe Perry putting his soul and feels into his guitar!
