Do a Danish Pete's Guitar Collection.
Stay tuned... We will see what we can do! 😉
@@andertons 😍😍😍
But... it would just be his tele...
Just watch his Captain meets episode
Great idea!
Normal people "please make this hellish lockdown end". Guitar players and gamers. "What lockdown?".
Genuinely, the only major change is I can't jam with my musicians cause all the practice rooms are closed.
@@dcflake5645 Hmmm... and all the concerts cancelled?
I gotta admit, my chops have never been better 😂
Nah, mate. No gigs, no cash. Some of my friends have it rough.
Guitar players are so different than gamers. Gamers can play multiplayer games perfectly on their own. As a musician You can't indefinitely play on your own at home. You need to meet people and play outside. Playing music is a performance. Gaming is not.
“Never ever, ever think that you’re not good enough for something”. I like that Cap’n, thank you.
I read your comment at the same time he was saying it 😂 weird
I like that a lot too. Getting something you don’t feel “good enough” for can also inspire you and push you to improve 🤷♀️
Kate Brittain that’s it! That’s what I did with my Les Paul
The ''lee lick'' is legendary now.Really.
No video is complete without The Captain's Lick
@@andertons I agree.Greetings from the beautiful Greece.
@@andertons I played this lick, ironically, in another guitar shop and I heard someone said "Captain!!!". I replied with "I said what?". This story is true, but for 10 bonus points, do you know the reference?
Derek Chapman ‘Wot’- Captain Sensible.
That’s what his wife says.
Here is some information on your dad's guitar....
have seen many people asking about this brand while I have read much that is erroneous or plain wrong although a number of people have managed to get to the bottom of this enigma, it has not been publicised. Basically, the music dealer Beare & Son Ltd of London, with a branch in Toronto for many years, is an old-established instrument dealer-now over 150 years old and still going strong.
Back in the 1930s this company was a big Gibson dealer in London and Toronto- it is featured in Paul Fox's book "The Other Brands of Gibson". Like many retailers of that era- Selmer in London, which created the "Columbian" brand for US imports, Beare & Son Ltd or B & S L as it says on the badge created "The Michigan" as its own US import brand. There was a huge guitar boom in the UK in the 1930s and banjos were being tossed aside to be replaced by guitars- and American guitars had that extra appeal- that's where the music was coming from. In the 1930s from what I can deduce, these guitars were made in Chicago- Regal, Harmony and Kay. A little oval badge was nailed on the headstock and a sticky badge that was the same was also inside. The badge also stated "SOLE AGENTS" and "MADE IN USA." Now, a number of people have connected this brand with Beare & Son Ltd but plenty of people, it seems think that because it was The Michigan then there must be a Gibson connection. This is not the case- obviously, Michigan was the home of Gibson and the choice of that state as a brand name was redolent Big Time with a certain well-known instrument maker!
Beare & Son retailed Gibson brands in the UK and Canada but unlike Francis,Day & Hunter with its FDH Special, did not sell Gibson instruments under its own brand- or so it seems. I have seen a Harmony archtop from the late 1930s with a carved plastic headstock veneer that features the company's trade mark of the "cat and fiddle" a very impressive headstock, for sure and the cat & fiddle is still the company's logo. If you want to see him, there's a Beare & Son Gibson catalogue from 1936 that can be found via Google and he's on most pages with a big rendition towards the back. World War Two stopped this business and after the dust cleared and the pound sterling had sunk, guitar imports from the USA were a distant memory and the firm imported guitars from Europe- mostly the Eastern Bloc. The badge was the same but the MADE IN USA had gone.
Quite often, The Michigan branded guitars from the 1930s show up on ebay, and the sellers do not know what they have. Most of these guitars are clearly exactly the same as the Regal, Kay and Harmony originals but the name throws people. Attributing guitars to Gibson is not unusual when you do not know its origin and with a brand like The Michigan it is assumed that the guitars were made in that state- so, they are from Gibson. Now, if Beare & Son Ltd had called the brand The Illinois, this would not happen- or less often!Anyway, I hope this clears up matters and helps people to ascertain the true maker of these guitars and the odd mandolin, as well. To conclude, I have a date stamped Harmony H1265 Valencia sold as a Michigan- it's not a Gibson- it's a Harmony guitar, and no matter how hard I try, I
When did they add chapter descriptions directly to the timeline? That's amazing.
We had seen a few comments requesting for our longer videos to be broken down into chapters, glad to see you're enjoying the new feature! 🤘
@@andertons Really brings your production quality to a whole new level, and it was already setting the bar ! Love the extra effort !
That's appeared on some of my videos where there are timestamps in the description - think it's a YT thing!
UA-cam started interpreting timestamps as chapters. Happened on my album-length videos, it's a very good feature on their part.
That Daisy Rock sounds GOOD with the crunch.
It really does
how about Pete's collection?
If we can get enough comments to convince Danish Pete, then i'm sure we can make this happen! 😉
Man, I remember the original Captain's guitar collection ages ago. Damn... that must've been 6 years ago now? Jeez, time flies.
Time flies & guitars multiply! 🤣
35:26 *FINALLY AFTER 12 YEARS ON THIS CHANNEL.*
Clapton did have a 70s sunburst strat that looked like brownie.
That Reverend guitar sounds awesome.
The captain alone in the Andertons shop gives me depression.
Would it make you feel better to remind you that he's not in the shop?
"I walked into my shop, saw my guitar, realised that "I want that guitar", and then realised I already owned it, and the entire contents of the shop and the shop itself, but I bought it anyway"; this is an Escher-esque story.
I like hearing Lee talk, it's like hearing the father I never had.
I love how he jokes about throwing himself out for playing Smoke On The Water lol
Surprisingly I own a B.S.L. guitar that I got from my grandfather. From what I was able to find out the company is Beare and Son LTD, they're still in existence today. I believe they sold in London UK and Toronto Canada (where my grandfather got his) and are German built guitars during the 50s and early 60s.
I guess as an addendum I should add they did exist before the 50s and 60s. My understanding is they were basically a Commonwealth version of Kay guitars.
This channel is so much more interesting with Captain and Pete leading the charge. The Captain has always been very relatable, and now his playing has come a long way. Pete has that pure child like joy that just makes him so enjoyable to watch. Both seem like really cool dudes.
Just finished watching the entirety of the interview with your dad and now I'm right into this!
No better video to follow... Welcome to the Andertons family 🤘
Yes please PETE do a guitar collection video, SOON!!!!!
When he says, he’s an advocate for your always good enough. So basically if you can sfford expesnive and want it get it. Doesn’t matter how good or bad you are. That is the sort of attitude you want from someone! Top dude lee!
Just wanna say Lee’s playing is SOOO GOOD. Proof that practice and learning gets results. His playing has significantly sky rocketed within the year.
"I know Lewis doesn't drive for Ferrari..." Nice save there Lee!!!!!!!
😉
Lewis Hamilton does own a ferrari fyi lol
Lee making that 4 year prediction
@@NightPwnGaming I forgot about these comments and now I'm dead.....
This feels like a therapy just watching these guitars, hearing a story about em! the type of content i live for. awesome
In the early '80's I took a semester of guitar in High School. I bought myself an inexpensive Harmony western for the class from the local music store. The store owner was also the music teacher for our high school, so I got even more of a deal since it was for his guitar class. It was nice enough, and everyone said it sounded really good considering its price. But there was one kid in this class using his dad's Martin. Wow. Night and day. Even the teacher/store owner said it was the nicest sounding one he'd ever played, and he owned a pretty nice Martin as well. I'm not really an acoustic fan, but your story reminded me (35 years later) that if I was ever to buy quality acoustic, it would have to be a Martin.
Wow, more colours, not only amber and sunburst 🤣
That Martin sounds freaking awesome!
I had the "thats the one" feeling when I picked up my Taylor acoustic in a shop 4 years ago. Still love it.
I like the cheeky smile as he says "I like this guitar" it just felt wholesome
I watched both videos of your collection Lee and I speak for many that it puts a smile on our faces with the fun and informative videos Andertons makes. I agree, the most valuable guitars are the ones most sentimental to each of us. Keep up the great work all of you. Stay safe. Peace.
2 years later, but I have to say that I really enjoyed this solo setup you have here. Very watchable. if you ever need an idea for a video, just do more of this. By yourself, talking to camera. Lovely.
21:25 the moment we were all waiting for
It makes a difference for me if someone who sells guitars, also loves them as much as i do. Great presentation, thank you for that!
Hey Cap I was overwhelmed with your personal guitar history when you got to your D-35. I owned for 40 odd years a 1972 D-35 and had it refurbished by Martin after traveling and gigging with it for many years. It was in pretty rough shape when I sent it to Martin and they had it for almost a year. When it returned it was incredible. A full neck reset and repair of cracks in the ebony were just the beginning of what they did and it was all for free. They also returned it with a new case which wasn’t charged for or requested. What a company. Anyhow I had to sell mine a few years ago and I have regretted it ever since and seeing yours somehow made me feel better like one had found a good home. Cherish it dude and don’t sell it even if you need the money.
That Martin is incredible and you’ve given me the idea that I want a guitar from the year I was born on my 40th birthday. Thanks Cap!
Absolutely loved this, thanks for sharing - Love the 70s Black strat !
Ahhh..🤘😎We needed this .This is breath of fresh air . Especially with everything going on in the world.Thank you so much for sharing,mate.🤘😎
Love the story behind each guitar. keep the videos coming. Thanks for all you do!
Captain your videos are great, its great pleasure to watch. Thanks really.
Man this is outstanding...you gave me lesson of humbleness! Thank you for that.
You are getting better and better on the guitar since the beginning of andertons channel. Once again thanks for all.
I love the story behind your Gray Guitar emperor!
I bought a Daisy Rock for my daughter. Build quality was quite good.
Thanks for sharing the journey:)!
Awesome video👏🏼thank you!
Thank you for entertaining us during lockdown!
Fun stuff! Thanks Lee
That first lick was great :) great job Captain. I am starting to look up to you as an inspiration now!
Really enjoyed this video . ..thank you .
335 indeed, that nitro finish is spectacular! Thanks for keeping me entertained! Really great seeing someone model the correct behavior during these crazy times!!! Top notch! PS super glue the nut if it’s cut to deep, as seen on The Guitologist.
Would also love to see Beas collection!
Ive never been a big 335 fan , but that red slightly flame top at the beginning of the video is stunning .
Captain,
I believe what you said was “do you have a story about an acoustic guitar?”
I was a teenager in the early 70s and started to learn guitar. Back in those days guitars were not set up when you pulled them down off the wall and I really didn’t understand the importance of set up or actually how simple it really is (basic physics). So in those days finding a guitar I liked had little to do with looks and it was all about playability and staying in tune. In those days everyone loved Martins but the $600 price tag for a new D35 was significant for many of us. At the time my acoustic style was evolving with capos (sometimes two). Every Martin I saw in a shop that I put a capo on was no longer in tune and adding a second cut capo was not an option either. In 1995 I was visiting one of my favorite guitar shops and they have this new thing, an acoustic room (a big deal back then). I was not familiar with this guitar company but there were about 15 Taylors on the wall. As was my style I played them all and was really drawn to a certain dreadnought. Given the list price of $2800 (American) I didn’t even bother to mention it to my wife. But while I was there I noticed the Taylor magazine called wood & steel so I took one home. The cover story was called “a walk through the woods” and I learned much about various tonewoods used in Taylor guitars. It turned out that the dreadnought I had been playing was a fall Limited edition with Brazilian rosewood back and sides and Engleman Spruce top. Well, what a lesson in tone woods that was for me.
Well I decided to buy that guitar but my wife decided I would need to sell equipment to find the money. So after I sold my 90s Clapton Strat, a 70s P bass and my amp and pedalboard, I brought it home.
That’s when I learned at least with acoustic guitars to just play as many as I could and the best ones would always get my attention, they essentially chose me.
And I still find that which ever Taylor I play, adding a capo does not require a re-tune. I really believe the quality that Taylor brought to the acoustic guitar market completely change the industry, forcing other companies to do better set ups on guitars offered for sale.
And ironically enough, this Brazilian 810 sounds less like a Taylor and more like a Martin…
Great vid Lee and always, great stories. I’ve been thinking about a Martin...
Nice to see some colour and sparkle. Guitars are fun to play, so why no be fun to look at? You need a G&L in one of their incredible glitter finishes.
Asat w/silver flake and the enormous p 90s
His playing honestly sounds better and better every single video, great stuff!
I've just this moment finished watching the video.
Lee, thankyou.
Thankyou for the stories behind all the guitars.
I totally agree with you on the acoustic, it has to be a Martin.
I'm in the market for an acoustic at present and I always have the martin sound in my head when I try one, I cant afford a martin at present, but I listen for what's closest.
Once again Lee, thankyou.
I love the sound of the reverend with both pickups. Wow.
Sweet sounding 335! Tasty licks from the captain!
I have my Mom's 49 Gretsch New Yorker she bought in 1950 brand new! She toured with it for years. I inherited it a few years ago!
WE WANT PETES COLLECTION
hopefully I was loud enough to convince him
Ahoy Skipper ! Another good presentation ! The Michigan ? My first guitar of which I have two black & white photos only taken 1967... It was (is ?) a JAZZ Hollow Body with One Neck Pick-Up... Two f's in the style of Hofner... or Gretsch... Left it with a good friend and never obtained it back during world travels... He died (RIP) and took the Guitar... or secret... or both, to the grave with him ! and 'Skipper'... Looking through the window from 'outside' the house (diff focus) ... If I had to rush into a burning house for one of your guitars, then I would grab the Martin... Great Tone... Irreplaceable ! Oh ! and Second comment.. I have been "Joined-at-the-hip" to my 1972 ESTON 'Made in Italy' by EKO for the Australian market... We are now both 'Vintage' together !! Which of the seven guitars of mine would I burn my fingers for ??????? The Lot !!!!!!! 🤠...
That was great Lee the time I watched you show off your guitars was with Rob in your house and you had a Westham front covered amp Fender blues junior that must have been a few years back :-) thank Lee great fun
I bought a second hand Taylor 914ce from you guys and fell in love!! Got it for a steal! Pure heaven!,,
Magnificant! Thank you.
Such a cool collection. That black Fender reissue sounds bold. That's the tone I'd go for in a blues/rock strat.
Thanks for the bodge tip on raising the E string's action. I'm sure that will come in handy soon.
you have great ears for tone! I think that's very important. Enjoyed this heaps. Stay safe mate
Heck yeah! And it's got the single cut snarl!
The Daisy
Can we get a Danish Pete Guitar Collection video pls? I think I speak for all of us: we need it
That Martin sounds truly amazing. Good year ;)
That 335 is an absolute dream!!
Also a 72 issue (as a previous commenter coined). Love the birth year guitar gift idea. As you pointed out, 50 is around the corner! So, we’ll see.
Who else got scared when the Daisy Rock guitar almost fell off his lap? LOL!
Yeah I saw it slipping too and was like oooooh shit!
Al Dee 27 I was hoping it would drop
came here looking for that
That was an instant YIKES for me too! I like that neo-metro axe!
I started to move to catch it, silly me
This is epic tester man for all guitars. Thanks for not strumming to loud to try the guitar i like your vibe sir
That 1979 Strat actually sounds amazing... Another video Idea... Please do a comparison between all your strats.
I really liked the Gray Guitars Emperor, especially the sentimental value of it.
And that Martin story is awesome!
...correct me if i'm wrong but, omg that Gretsch !!!!! and a beautiful story to accompany it...
Love the finish on the 70s black strat. Definitely a unique guitar for sure!
That red 335 is awesome. I own a simple blonde epi and I love it.
Those are some great guitars. now we need pete's collection
That 70s Strat !!!! I thought it was blue over black. I absolutely love it
That Reverand looks like a 5-year-old describing a telecaster to a sketch artist.
@G. V. Q With very bad reception !
...i left my tele in the back-window of the car syndrome...i thought it sounded pretty nice though...
Great stay at home content 👍👍
That Grey sounds great! That might be your perfect studio recording electric guitar.
I guess the Strat at 33:00 is where they got the inspiration for the Dark Knight strat
I was just thinking that
Regarding your dads guitar- B&S is Beare & Sons. They used to make a lot of banjo's and ukelele's as well
This has to go to the Caps eyes.
Oh the joy of year of birth guitars. Bought a red 1977 Yamaha SF-700 last year for exactly the same reason. To be honest, chances are fairly high it's a 1978 (serial numbers are not 1000% certain in those years) but that's an excuse I'll only use when I spot another 1977 guitar I lust for.
That's the coolest daisy rocks guitars I've ever seen lol that's a great color
Do a blind speed dating where rob, the captain and Pete all get given the same guitars at different times and have 10 seconds to play a guitar then get swapped to the next one and have to decide which one they like the most
Do a guitar olympics. Different rounds like fastest guitar string change or quickest pedal and amp dialling in, quickest pedal board build
Came for the blue/black strat and you damn well know it! I do love that Grey Emperor too though! One of my strats has to have something in the nut to stop the low E from buzzing that I just can't seem to fix with the truss so every time I change strings I put a little piece of stem from some good weed in the nut and no more buzz, been doing it for years!
I've got a reverend double agent that I play through a boss katana 2 at home, and the amount of different sounds I can get out of just those two with nothing else is pretty impressive. Both purchases I made from watching Andertons videos 👍
Hi lee
In my humble opinion, I think your right on the button with the 3 guitar choice. In some cases It can take a lifetime to acquire your dream guitar.
I’m lucky I have my 3
Gibson SG Standard 2003
Fender telecaster 2019
And a absolutely beautiful epiphone DR 500 MCE Masrebuilt
And there is not enough time to give these the time they all deserve.!!
Love the vids Lee.
Muz
Great playing and tone on the 335 at the start of this!
The guitarist from Floral plays a Daisy Rock Les Paul and he plays some awesome, super technical stuff on it. Definitely underrated guitars!
Wouldn't want steel strings on that old Michigan if it hasn't got a truss rod. Lovely unpretentious collection. That Martin sounds just incredible!!!! I can feel its power through my headphones.
Oh man, another hour of the Captain’s Guitars. I’m glad I’m not the only one who’s guitar habit is so bad that I have guitars that I forget I even own.
Thanks for sharing your collection and memories. Very nice. I miss an Ovation there...
PS. I think I can say, without fear of being wrong, that we all want to see Pete's collection.
Love from Spain
I see you have been levelling up! Keep practicing Sir Captain :)
My acoustic that is "The One" is a 2000 Martin D12 (12 string dreadnought). Picked it up when my dad took me to Norman's at age 13. Both he and Norm decided I'd bonded with the guitar and couldn't be separated from it, so it was my Christmas present for that year. The space above the sound hole is scratched to hell, I got a little chip in the headstock, and the binding has shrunk off and needs gluing, but that is still the absolute best sounding acoustic guitar of all time. Both warm and bright and sounds absolutely huge.
Enjoyed both parts.
I totally get what he means when he says that sometimes something you don't really dig will sneak up on you and then you realize that you like it. For me its rosewood boards and big head stocks on a strat, I used to really dislike both but they've really grown on me lately.
That’s cool! My dad was born in ‘72.
Great playing Capn'!
