    These episodes are amazing. I love how Daniel is a real historian and Nathaniel is so humble to learn about the instruments and history but is such an incredible player. I slow the vids down after watching and learn as much as I can from his incredible playing 👌

    Pure talent. I could listen to Nathaniel playing a Playskool toy guitar.

    Picked up a R6 this month and it’s the best guitar I own. Fat neck with p90s. I love it.

    There are cleaner ones out there. Maybe not the all gold variation. But there are cleaner 57s with and without P-90s out there.
    The P-90s are hard to come by, though. More than a few saw the business end of a router and woke up with PAFs in them.

    The audio of the guitar is sorta crappy sounding. Add some ambient mic to avoid having that "mic too close to the speaker" dry sound.

      Nothing to do with the guitar. He’s playing through a Magnatone amp, and they break up like a 50s Fender Tweed amp, with that kind of raspy fuzz sound.

      I agree, that breakup is either the amp oir the way they placed the mic too close to the speaker grill. Add some ambient mic sound to make it better.
