When i die and arrive at the gates of heaven this is the guitar god himself will be holding and he will say you can play this but no stairway to heaven.

Had an opportunity to visit the Mecca known as Norman’s Rare Guitars today. Was able to meet Mark, Jen and Norm! What a gracious and wonderful group of people, they made me, a nobody, feel not only welcome but appreciated. I always read about how Norm only speaks to the stars and big spenders and let me say that certainly wasn’t my experience as he was friendly and very approachable. Mark and Jen were both beyond nice. Thank you both for talking to and spending so much time with me.
Mark, thanks for the gig bag for my new p bass!
Go Norm’s!!!!
Awesome headed over soon from New Zealand unfortunately looking maybe some touching but what a honour it will be all the same
Tony Levin super cool!
Sir !
Me too, same experience and did not write a note here but sent them presents. Ah, and bought a Gibson SG..
Dope to know man thanks for sharing
Dude that thing is as CLEAN as it was 624 episodes ago
No, it is not. Check the scratch next to the bridge. It was not there 624 episodes ago !
OK... I'm sure of it now... I think we have found the Guitar for the 300k subscriber giveaway...thanks Norm....very generous......
lol, you think norms gonna give away $30,000?
@@eddiegodoy5120 probs closer to 65k
@@eddiegodoy5120 That's the joke.
That look on Mr. Agnesi’s face when Jen started singing...
So will we be seeing this Strat again in episode 1250?
Jen singing is the best moment for me in the 2 years I have watched this show! Love you both! Kick ass job!
10 seconds into Mark playing it and I was like "yeah, it's gone"
Fantastic Strat. The tone is superb.the color is close to Clapton’s Brownie Strat. The wood grain is beyond fantastic.
The wear on the fretboard lines up with La Bamba perfectly...
Like thats what was played on it forever..
It’s good to come back to watch guitar of the week my mom have brain cancer but doing well and you have a Stratocaster I love Stratocaster
I pray God completely heals her and extends her time on this earth.
Best wishes to your mom! I’m glad these episodes give you some joy while going through a tough time. 🙂🙏🏻
Best wishes to your mum and family and I hope you have a long and happy life together .
terry lumpkin sorry to hear that bro. My dad died of it a few back. Don’t think there’s anything they can do once it gets to brain. My dad suffered a horrible death so just be prepared for the worst. ✌️❤️🏴
Prayers for mom
Jen sounds so cute with her , "Para bailar la Bamba!"
She certainly does! Come on, Jen, more vocals, please! :-)
Mark's reaction to Jen singing is priceless.
Even though mark is gone this will probably be my favorite episode just because of how well he played Lenny, good luck Michael
Nothing like seeing an old friend after a few years and hanging out together- Luv It!
Possibly the sweetest neck pickup you're ever likely to hear. Just perfect.
Now that is what I call an episode of Guitar of the Day! Best of all we got to hear the guitar with its clean tone instead of hearing it overdriven. You can always crank your amp or add a pedal but what I always want is to hear the clean tone. If I like that I know I will also like it after I have pushed it. And what an Incredible tone on all 3 pickups! Best GOTD since the Broadcaster back in August,
Jim Bonacum Amen on clean tones.. any crapper can overdrive and be dirty... but only the good ones are good clean.
Yeah, it's easier to tell how a guitar will sound distorted from its clean tone than how it will sound clean from its distorted tone
Sweet jesus, I just keep coming back to this video
That Strat was just to beautiful and if that was Jen singing, I have died and gone to heaven. Love you guys.
Wow I don’t usually comment but that strat sounds angelic
That was the tone of a generation. Perfect !!!
I hope a player buys this Strat and plays it for years, rather than it doing the trader circuit with an ever higher price.
Vintage guitar prices are crazy but that's what people are paying to collect some music history. Sure, i could build a parts one and it would be good. I could also build a Ford Model T, but it will never be the real deal.
Where I think it gets obnoxious with guitar pricing is the aged stuff coming from Fender and Gibson's CS lines that are several times the price of the base model. I prefer to just buy the base model used and play it lots to age it. Seems more legit to me and is more friendly on the wallet.
What i really want though is a place with no neighbors and a barn that i know i can stay at for over a decade so i can have a dog I never have to re-home and Marshall stacks etc next to my vodka still and all that. A place people can come stay for an affordable fee and rehearse/record/relax.
“I could put this much wear on this guitar in a weekend” LOL! No shit- especially with the evil relic-ing jacket on.
This made me go back and watch a few of the old GODs- Mark has gotten a lot looser on-cam, and the negative comments on how he treats the guitars have really tapered off. One early commenter even bitched about how hard he picked!
I always get my daily dose of the show, even if I cringe now and then- keep ‘em coming guys, thanks
I'm freaking out! WOW!
You're right, it doesn't get much better than that. Love the way SRV sounds on that guitar. Thanks again Mark and Jen! Byeeeeeee!
I don’t often comment on UA-cam videos but this might be the most beautiful guitar I’ve ever seen on this channel.
Many thanks Mark and Jen for creating and posting this series. I watch and enjoy every episode and have picked up a few playing tips along the way. Keep up the good work!
That was as beautiful of a Strat as you have ever had, wow! Mark, I can tell you love to play in each video!
WOW !
Never heard a 50's Strat with so little wear that sounded that good. That is a great Strat.
Prodigal son came home. For a bit at least. Nice strat, loved Jen's vocals.
I can dig it.
Sounds truly ...Amazing......
Great Show, Mark and Jen !
What an awesome guitar !
What in the World would we do without
Freakin' Straturday ! ! !
I have a 55 strat. Once owned by Kenny Loggins before he was a name. He lived in Sierra Madre and sold it to one of my brothers friend who sold it to me over 40 years ago. Ive been playing it since I was 19 years old. I let other people play it and they love it. I tell them an old guitar is all I could afford. So cool to see one at Norman's.
WoW what a beauty
Love the cars bit made me try and learn it
I totally, absolutely, definitely, without any reservations whatsoever, FUCKING LOVE IT.
'drooling'...unbelievable!
Wow! Just so sweet
It sounds sooooooo good!
Relic. Absolutely gorgeous. Loved the Lenny.
Beautiful.
Soooooo SICK!! Im going to get a ‘50’s american original just like that. I knew youd play little wing or lenny
That tone...ooh. Very nice.
I’m a Tele guy but damn this one fine piece of ash. I finished watching the video then started to watch another and I can’t stop picturing that beauty. Love the ash body strats
holy fuck. first note you plucked on that thing gave me shivers. that is an amazing instrument. truly a piece of working art
That is one beautiful piece of ash. Sounds amazing too!
ha, said the same thing to the missus then shrugged. My IBZ RR Sr is made out of about 10 pieces of ash. I think most Strats were made of two or three.
Best looking strat I've ever seen, gorgeous! More vocals from Jen please.
Oh yeah! And it looks like you have fun playing it
This is easily the most beautiful 50‘s ash body, maple board Strat I have ever seen. Gruhn guitars had a 1954 Strat that rivals this one with a lightly flamed neck. Lovely!
Daaaammmmn
Sounds amazing, you can feel the life that guitar has had with every tone. Someday, someday I will have something like this.
Guitargasm!!!
Awesome guitar!!! When you got a Strat like that you gotta play a Buddy Holly song, right?
Tim Clary absolutely
Constantly disappointed when he doesn't
TOTALLY AGREE...BUDDY HOLLY GUITAR.....
HOW CAN IT BE ANYTHING ELSE....
guess not Tim
that is a thing of beauty and sounds like liquid silk
Yes! 😎
The G.O.T.D. that KEEPS ON GIVING!
Beautiful Strat and great playing as always.
That got the blood flowing. What a way to end it and great way to start my day.
Damn Mark! Thanks for showing us this again. Such a beautiful guitar.
Just awesome!! Thanks for the Elliot Easton tribute...
4:25 jen 😂🤣😍
I like Mark Agnesi as the host of Norman's Rare Guitars.
Neck Pickup: Lenny - Stevie Ray Vaughan
Middle Pickup: My Best Friend's Girl - The Cars
Bridge Pickup: La Bamba - Ritchie Valens
Fantastic!
Jen Nailed It On La Bamba❗️
Wow! I'm drooling!
It sounds every bit as good as it looks.
That finish is unbelievable.
That right there is the iconic tone-- totally loving it!
That '55 Strat is a stunner! The three songs were perfect to show how each of the pickups sound. There is some merit to the 3-way switch. I know the 5-way is more versatile and that is how my Squier strat is set up, but this is absolute classic strat tone. I like Les Pauls and humbuckers, too but, in my opinion, this is what a guitar should sound like. Thank you Mark and Jen, this made my Straturday. Thanks to Norm for buying these guitars and sharing them with all of us. You guys make us feel like we are a part of this thing. Is there anything better than a classic, vintage guitar? The answer is, " No!"
That's a treasure. Love the finish and the sound. Classic.
That sound gets you hooked... glorious 🤟🏾
Just amazing. The tones from yesterday are back!
Please let these episodes go on forever
You hear that guitar and it just totally tells the story of why the strat became so iconic.
Oh, man! That is a nice guitar! Lenny sounds great on that thing!
Wow 😯
All of the YESSS
There were 3 guitars that lit me up during the latest load out. 2 '50s Strats and a '55 LP Jr. Seeing this 55 and the story blows me away.
Great playing
Awesome Guitar.
La Bamba... haven’t heard it since Lou Diamond Phillips. Amazing guitar Mark.
Awesome!!
Wow episode 1 guitar 🎸 this should be placed on the wall above the door in the store
Drooling over that one what a sweet guitar !
Effen amazing 😮 Stratocaster!!!! Simply perfect 👌
That guitar sounds great!!
