During my retail days....Both " Hairway To Steven" and "Choke on the Slaughter" were posted on signage throughout guitar display areas as prohibited and immediate grounds for removal of the player from the store.
Im surprised nobody is commenting about how you walked in to Paul Reed Smith himself playing that harp guitar, and that old bass. Man what a moment to be a part of.
Yeah, I think that seems likely. That poor sales guy? The one that spent the entire video trying not to laugh? I'm sure he was furious that his time got wasted. And I'll bet that store is ALWAYS that packed. Not ONLY when a UA-cam celebrity is showing up.
Once I was in a local guitar store and I saw a beautiful tele hanging up in a wall. I grabbed it, I played and I loved it, but I had only half the money it costed, so i put it back and kept looking. 10 minutes later the guitar felt down. It got a little scrap and the owner was asking me for all the money the guitar costed. But it wasn’t my fault so I wasn’t going to pay him a cent. Luckily for me, the real owner suddenly appeared in the store and suggested me to pay half of the price of the guitar, the store would pay the other half and I would keep the guitar. And that’s how I got my favorite guitar at half price :)
Daniel Peña I bought a Yamaha bass from a pawn shop and the dude dropped it taking it off the rack. Went from 160 to 80 in a second. Happiest day of my life. Lol
@F K yes, because blues was influenced by jazz music. This is not a mystery, this is a fact. Jazz music appears to have started in Europe in the 1880's and probably in Denmark. Blues was a specific product of the 1920's-30's America. It's not my opinion that jazz is older than blues. It's a fact. I find it sickening that people like you want to destroy facts for personal gain.
Jon Young I think it also works in reverse too. I had some luck playing metal on a jazz master. Not only did I get kicked out of the store, and told to keep the guitar, but they even gave me the amp with it. Haha.
No joke I played jazz on the most metal guitar they had over here in Nashville and they told to get out and take the guitar before they call the cops on me for "defiling this sanctum of aggression." That guitar was worth $700, most expensive one they had, and they let me leave with it! Thank you for the idea!

When my mom was diagnosed with alzheimers I took early retirement to care for her because she had me promise years ago that I would never put her in a nursing home ( be careful what you promise).

Now out of all that was sold or taken I miss not being able to play my guitar most , so here I am watching s**t like this hoping it was real. I'll get another one someday and if I have to sell it to help someone I'll do it again. Lol, guess I'll never learn.
I hate that ideology. Real Epiphones are super expensive. My 66 Casino and my Texan are over $7,000 each. People think Epi’s are cheap Gibson’s but the truth is Epi came before Gibson and were high quality instruments when they were made in Kalamazoo, Michigan. Even the cheap Chinese Casinos are good guitars with the right set up. Gibson’s now are shit and ridiculously overpriced.
Slick Tiger Yep. with Gibson, you’re paying for the name. Another guitar built just the same, by a small company, goes for way less. Fender started falling into this trap about 20 years ago and dug themselves out of it. A newer Mexican Tele is better than American Teles from a certain period.
4840 hB.t AO I spent a few days at the Nashville Gibson plant, a few years ago, shooting a documentary and got to see every little detail in the build process. QC is VERY high! The Gibson’s are built to very high standards. That being said, I have seen and played some very nice Eli’s! Very nice. The folks at Gibson didn’t even watt talk about Epi’s, except to say that they exist. The Epi’s I have seen and played were EXCELLENT guitars! Very well built and much more affordable than the Gibsons.
@@Drjackdempsey9644 You're kinda right. Modern Epiphones essentially are cheap Gibsons. And while the Epiphone company itself is older than Gibson, Gibson was making guitars well before epiphone ever did. Also, the Epiphones made in Kalamazoo were all post Gibson buyout.
I have watched pretty much every u tube video about Paul ever since i bought a PRS Custom. What an incredible guitar this is! I have been playing guitar for 55 years and never played an instrument that impressed me so much. He has the magic touch as far as wood selection and electronics. He is very humble, always giving his team credit for his success, and that's just inspiring!
That old man with the complicated looking guitar made me smile. He looked so happy playing. Crazy how a passion can last your entire life. Well, have a nice day.
well, I'm a girl, so naturally everytime I walk into a guitar store and ask tro try an electric, they look at me "wow, you play electric guitar??". And then when they get to seem a little comfortable, I play the riff from Master of Puppets and look at their faces again LOL. Never got a free guitar though :(
@@shannonm7981 I'd even say maybe more. She should probably try playing something different or maybe original. Instead of riffs everyone knows and hears all the time.
Play the "Creeping Death" solo flawlessly, and while the guitar store employees are standing there in absolute shock, run off with whatever guitar is in your hands. Should work about 95% of the time for girls. 13% for guys. If you experience any issues, please turn off your guitar store employees and turn them back on again. The issue should resolve itself after a good reboot.
Well how about come up with your own style and play something that no one ever played before? It takes alot of times but I am sure you'll get it in no time. Keep on practicing!
The easiest way is this: 1.) Get the guitar you want 2.) Say “I all do like that one” and point to another guitar 3.) while the person serving you is looking at the guitar you pointed at RUN!!!
I once walked in the store and my glasses fell so i told everyone to freeze and for some reason the register guy gave me all the money and free snacks so honestly it was pretty cool..it was probably a event or contest i won
I dunno man, last time I jammed a guitar in a shop, the manager yelled at me, the customers screamed, the cops were called and it was an over all bad day. maybe next time I shouldn’t jam it into someone’s head playing stairway to heaven

People think Epi’s are cheap Gibson’s but the truth is Epi came before Gibson and were high quality instruments when they were made in Kalamazoo, Michigan. Even the cheap Chinese Casinos are good guitars with the right set up. Gibson’s now are shit and ridiculously overpriced.
Slick Tiger Yep. with Gibson, you’re paying for the name. Another guitar built just the same, by a small company, goes for way less. Fender started falling into this trap about 20 years ago and dug themselves out of it. A newer Mexican Tele is better than American Teles from a certain period.

I spent a few days at the Nashville Gibson plant, a few years ago, shooting a documentary and got to see every little detail in the build process. QC is VERY high! The Gibson’s are built to very high standards. That being said, I have seen and played some very nice Eli’s! Very nice. The folks at Gibson didn’t even watt talk about Epi’s, except to say that they exist.
The Epi’s I have seen and played were EXCELLENT guitars! Very well built and much more affordable than the Gibsons.
@@Drjackdempsey9644 You're kinda right. Modern Epiphones essentially are cheap Gibsons. And while the Epiphone company itself is older than Gibson, Gibson was making guitars well before epiphone ever did. Also, the Epiphones made in Kalamazoo were all post Gibson buyout.
The most common argument when you don't like the other persons taste in metal genres 4:13
Elitists and people who enjoy different new genres
I only like real music is what I usually hear🙄
@@joeshmoe8310 you must have taste in music. Not good taste but taste nevertheless.
The old man is Paul Reed Smith you guys.
ken palmquist I knew it! PRS. Not really that old.
I thought he was larry carlton at first
to my surprise I had to scroll all the way down to this comment to finally find true guitar expert
I have watched pretty much every u tube video about Paul ever since i bought a PRS Custom. What an incredible guitar this is! I have been playing guitar for 55 years and never played an instrument that impressed me so much. He has the magic touch as far as wood selection and electronics. He is very humble, always giving his team credit for his success, and that's just inspiring!
@@kenpalmquist4351 true definition of self made man
That old man with the complicated looking guitar made me smile. He looked so happy playing. Crazy how a passion can last your entire life. Well, have a nice day.
That’s Paul Reed Smith lol he owns a guitar company
@@bloomx1316 Holy shit, really?! then hes even more passionate than i thought. thanks for the info:)
“The difference between this bass and other basses is this one is b i g.”
davie504 will SLAP that
Me: What kind of clickbait shit it this
Me 5 mins later: the good kind
Huh?
2:03 someone just played Stairway To Heaven
Poorly at that
Sybil Reichlan
LMAO my poor, poor ears.
They tried, then were stopped
I thought I heard somebody starting to play smoke on the water
Really badly
I bought my first Uke at that shop when I was working in Yellowstone.
"Im more kinda into reds"
That al. Ost killed me.
"The color of the wood affect the tone of the guitar" 🤣
Johan Q well yeah, sometimes a guitars wood color correlates to a denser wood, which would change the sound. He did generalize it tho
*holds a mandolin* “does it djent?”
I dont even know what djent means😂😂😂😂
i knew exactly what he was going to say before he even said it lmaooo
That’s a pretty reasonable question. It does have 8 strings after all
Yeah its got some d-jent
If you do it right ;)
I’m literally going to buy my first guitar today after watching your videos! I’ve been learning from a friend that plays and I’m so excited!
How is your guitar journey going???😊
Video should be titled " How to get thrown out of a guitar store"
With a free guitar.
A Healthier Kirk or how to billshit people and waste 7 mins of your day.
Paul Reed Smith is Stan Lee,only he is making guitar heroes,and also cameos.
I found out that guns are a real big discount for any store
Good for 10 years free room n board on the county as well.
That old man with the harp guitar made me smile😂😂
That old man is the P.R.S. himself.
Thumbnail: How to get a Guitar for free
Me: Wait that is Illegal
Yes it is
Literally
at 2:25 i'm like, "is that Paul Reed Smith?" then it was lol
well, I'm a girl, so naturally everytime I walk into a guitar store and ask tro try an electric, they look at me "wow, you play electric guitar??". And then when they get to seem a little comfortable, I play the riff from Master of Puppets and look at their faces again LOL. Never got a free guitar though :(
That look is probably because he hears that riff 100 times a day.
@@shannonm7981 I'd even say maybe more. She should probably try playing something different or maybe original. Instead of riffs everyone knows and hears all the time.
Play the "Creeping Death" solo flawlessly, and while the guitar store employees are standing there in absolute shock, run off with whatever guitar is in your hands.
Should work about 95% of the time for girls. 13% for guys.
If you experience any issues, please turn off your guitar store employees and turn them back on again. The issue should resolve itself after a good reboot.
Well how about come up with your own style and play something that no one ever played before? It takes alot of times but I am sure you'll get it in no time. Keep on practicing!
Is this an American thing or something? I live in the UK and no one bats an eye at the fact I'm female and play guitar.
Watched you very carefully been to 3 guitar centers have two guitars and a bass thanks to you and will continue to shop lol 😁 thanks to you so kool
Step 1: Target guitar
Step 2: Ask for assistance
Step 3: Give assistant the note
Step 4: Walk with guitar
“ *liquid* metal??
yeah i only like real metal”
*Sad mercury noise*
Sad T-1000 noise
I feel so stupid because I’m just realizing the person playing the harp guitar is PRS
“Blues is kinda an old music. I’m more into reds”
Suck it blue!
@@el_androi1203 I hope I'm not the only one here that got that
I like greens music
What music do YOU listen to
@@el_androi1203 rvb?
I'm more into RGB music
I tried doing this and two 7 foot men in black grabbed and threw me out of the store
Did they let you keep the guitar?
“What can you tell me about this bass?”
“Yah, so this bass is big, and other basses are.. less big”
“I’m getting uncomfortable with bass let’s go back this way” that kinda hurt XD
1 “Oooo that’s satin”
2 “yea satin finish there”
1 “Honestly I hate satin”
Satan*
"This is a real piece of history, you're lucky to even have it in the store, where'd you find it?"
"I have no idea"
"does It... Djent?"
"it, uh... du-djents..."
I get similar results by playing the intro to "what I am" by Edie Brickell on a Gretsch 6120.
I played Stairway to heaven and got the full store thanks!
I tried this in a local shop, they still want money.... doesn’t work!
What kind of asshole ya gotta be to even try it.?
@@stantaylor2716 looks like Hfjexirjk Irngbssjdjjfofka has nothing to say
@@stantaylor2716 free guitar
I dont get why do they still want money did you play jazz if not than that's why it didn't work man
I wish i would have a guitar store like that on my country
Ikr
I honestly can’t believe you visited my local guitar store this was a shock! Hope you enjoyed it at much as I did
The easiest way is this:
1.) Get the guitar you want
2.) Say “I all do like that one” and point to another guitar
3.) while the person serving you is looking at the guitar you pointed at RUN!!!
I once walked in the store and my glasses fell so i told everyone to freeze and for some reason the register guy gave me all the money and free snacks so honestly it was pretty cool..it was probably a event or contest i won
And then everyone clapped
I dunno man, last time I jammed a guitar in a shop, the manager yelled at me, the customers screamed, the cops were called and it was an over all bad day.
maybe next time I shouldn’t jam it into someone’s head playing stairway to heaven
You mad lad
I tried that this morning. It worked perfectly. Thank you for the tip.
My friend gets free repairs on his guitars because he talks to the dudes that work at our guitar center a lot
Goonjak same actually 😂
