    All rules are meant to be broken - or at least have exceptions. If you play Stairway 1) on a double neck 2) all parts simultaneously and 3) with the chops of Lemmo - it's all good. Great episode!

    Thank God that Norms rare guitars doesnt acknowledge Wayne's world rules. This episode was a walk down memory lane, especially if you're 60 years old and over. The EDS 1275 brought a new sonic soundscape to rock music, and Lemmo just opened that crypt that it has been sleeping in for decades. In 1971, at 12 years old, I saved up enough paper route money to buy Led Zeppelin IV. (4) my grand father bought me a Ventura black beauty Les paul copy for my 12th birthday. I would sneak into older brothers room and use his record player and listen over and over to the Stairway lead solo. It took me over 2 weeks but I finally coped it. I was the neighborhood guitar wiz kid, and the chicks were mesmerized as soon as I hit the intro of stairway to heaven. Soon I'll be 64 years old, with grand children, and guess what. They sit mesmerized when I play stairway to heaven. Michael and crew. Thanks for sparking up these 51 year old memories. Kinda emotional for this old dinosaur rocker. Its bitter sweet. Btw. I still have my EDS1275 and other Gibson and fender guitars. I just cant part with them. Too much sentimental value. 😊❤

    Beautiful playing. My mother was music director at 4 churches in my lifetime, she could play Bach, Beethoven, etc. but her favorite song played on guitar was Stairway To Heaven. LOL 😂 Thanks for wonderful memories and a great video all of y’all at Normans Rare Guitars. GOD bless y’all.

    I saw Led Zepplin in St. Louis MO in 1977. We stayed in East St. Louis because the drinking age was 18 in IL back then. I just happened to be 18 at the time, so were all my friends. We went together as kind of a graduation trip. It was a blast.

    Lemmo is single handedly keeping the legends of rock alive and well at Norman's rare. Like no other on the internet he keeps us daily abreast of the scope of rock guitar, it's unlimited boundaries and limitations. Simply put, a genius we can all learn from, his daily lessons are a gift to all of us who aspire to create.

  • @eddieholmes3236

    Funny, I was thinking earlier today if Lemmo has ever done a gibson double neck and here it is! Absolutely killed it too 💯

  • @rasher009
    @rasher009 2 роки тому +5

    I love Brandon's encyclopaedic knowledge of the evolution of these guitars and I'd love to see an extended history of some of the interesting guitars you have , how they began, how they evolved, and (and this is really nerdy) a current day visit to the plot of land where they were made. I know it's weird, but the short history of this double neck was just so immersive that I want more of that. Awesome history lesson.

  • @paveltc
    @paveltc 2 роки тому +10

    I think you can break the golden rule of guitar shops if you play it that well. Great job! Ten years ago I hoped that one day I would own one of these. Still hasn't happened, maybe someday.

    He did the damn thing! That guitar is so gorgeous. Impeccably done, Michael, wonderfully explained by Brandon and masterfully shot by Jen. Easily one of the best Guitar of the Day videos. I legitimately love watching them. Jimmy Page would be proud.

  • @markrushton1516
    @markrushton1516 2 роки тому +4

    Lifeson, Slash, Page all have touted these. But Page defines it even tho he played Stairway on a Fender. Don Felder of course. Lemmo captures the iconic sound we all know. 50 years old now and it sounds as great today check out the 2007 reunion show. Page called it the tv aerial due to its lack of screening

  • @deadshot4245

  • @evomink
    @evomink 2 роки тому +1

    Lemmo is so talented!!! He let that solo scream and his picking sounded better than the original. If you’re going to break the golden rule, make your version of the song your own. Lemmo did that and then some... Well done, dude!

  • @williamknell864
    @williamknell864 2 роки тому

    Your original piece before you eased that old nugget, "Taurus" (by Spirit?) was a great example of how an instrument can be all about discovery, rather than a totem bowed to in classic rock graveyard of the obvious.
    You played the familiar part cleaner than its maestro ever did outside the recording studio. I almost doesn't stay through it. But you stayed clear
    the noodly, g'doogy-doogy-doogy hits he threw in at MSG, on the 12-string over the "and it makes me wonder " section.
    Kudos kudos kudos, man!
    You captured the spirit of the best take of this song.
    But, damn it, i love that you transcended this instrument's freighted legend, and opened by being yourself.
    Your coolest stuff tends to work that way.
    Ramble onward, Mike.

    Was at a vintage and used guitar shop in Louisville Kentucky years ago and saw what I believe was one of these (or one like it) inside a glass display case. I thought to myself “Well, there can’t be too many like that around”. Looked in the next display case and they had the left-handed version. So I bought them both.
    Not really.

Of course i need to replace the electronics, but the nut, tuners etc are surprisingly good! One of my best purchases, and being sinestral its bloody hard to find good guitars ! Thanks Norms, you blokes aee the ducks guts!
