This is the sort of content I miss, just you and a camera without any bullshit, hope there’s more we’re this came from
Agreed ...
I wonder, if people.who are endlessly paroting this "arogancy" things ever dealt with arogant person in real life 🤷
Emp Nda so why you here racking up comments and views on his videos further endorsing him..... Not the sharpest tool in the shed are ya champ
Emp Nda Don’t you think there’s enough negativity in the world already? Stop adding to it.
absolutely
I've been playing since I was 17, back in high school. I played in a band once, didn't like it. I'm a "bedroom guitar player", who probably has more bad habits than I can count, and never learned how to read music. I play what I feel, and it's me. My expression. Catharsis defined.
My oldest gear is my 2003 OLP in the shape of Eddie's real guitar, the Musicman 5150. It's purple. It's awesome. It is the conduit for my expression. I have 2007 Squier 51, and a 2015 Chapman ML-1, which is emotional for me, because it arrived days before my father's cancer diagnosis. He left us just over a year later.
It's amazing how these pieces of wood and metal mean so much to us, and give us so much joy, and yet help us live through pain and agony.
Fair play rob good to have you back man! So good to put all that bollocks behind and see you Getting back to all the important good stuff! onwards and upwards brother! X
People forget that you started from humble beginnings and Jeff is sadly missed, a lovely guy' I have seen all of your Vids over the years and know you are a decent guy good luck with the future
Full respect to you. Outstanding you've chucked your ego in the bin and been humble. Dont see that very often online. Even less on Utube. Hope everyone moves on and supports you. Best of luck for future.
I have my late Grandpa’s 1960 Gretsch 6124 Anniversary guitar and his 1968 Fender silverface Super Reverb. Amazing stuff! 😎👍
Killing it Monkey Lord! Miss your old style content. And I have to commend you for the amount you have dealt with lately not just how it must have affected your social standing but the pressure on your home and family life. We love you Rob keep it coming mate.
Love and Light
well said neil,,,some people are just gonna hate no matter what,,,cheers from australia,,,
Good to see you back strong rob, keep the quality content coming my friend, you have been missed👍🙂
Probably one if not the best Chappers video I´ve watched, glad he´s having fun again. And btw that PRS is something else!
We Love you in Knoxville TN Rob, Keep Rockin Brother you have touched so many people you don`t even know. Like me. I have been watching you over two years more like four, but you have inspired me through music since the first time I seen you,I love all your music,your guitars, your pedals, and YOU, Thanks for all the inspiration ,Knowledge and positivity you have brought to my life,forever grateful ,you have taught me alot.
I cannot find perfect words to express how touching your energy is, especially when you demonstrate such integrity and authenticity in the course of recent negative events. You really are as /real/ as a person gets. You will always have my viewer subscription. Rock on!
@@MR-um9ck milked those testes dry as the Sahara and with one finger up the old dirt road
I have a 1963 Gibson 335 it’s so nice to play and loads of vintage gear you can’t beat it
Dude, you (your channel, your content, all your stuff) helped me when I was down. You have been an absolute inspiration to me...I met you at Andertons too in 2017, and was super stoked!!!!!
Just want to let you know I support you, I trust you and no matter what happens I am always with you man!
Rock the fck on !!!!
Ditto to this! Rob Chapman was and is an inspiration, role model, and all around cool dood!
Miss seeing you on Andertons. I’m glad to hear the “grrrrrrrreetings” is back!
Makes me realise how long ive been watching your videos, some of these clips feel like it was yesterday!
So glad all the trouble is behind you now. Great to have u back at full throttle.
Nice tribute to Jeff and that is indeed one of the most beautiful PRS C24s I've ever seen!
Good to have you back Mister! More of these please sounding awesome as always
As soon as I saw this video in my feed I knew I wanted to see it! I've just bought a PRS Custom 24 charcoal burst. Absolutely loving it. Thanks for all your videos, I find them very informative and entertaining. Keep up the good work.
I love the charcoal burst as well. And Gibson has a new finish (at least new to me) Smoke House. What a cool finish it is!
Welcome back Rob! From all of the personal growth and the years of being a fan. Thanks for being honest with the world and keep being Chappers.
Adam Lee is a BEAST, his instrumental cover of Phil Collins "In The Air Tonight" was what got me back into playing guitar after a 20+ year hiatus!
Very emotional moment when you got the PRS gift.
My gear is old, but not old enough to be *vintage* .
Story of my life!
Almost everything about me is vintage, my age, my H||H IC100S from the 70's, my Marshall angle front 4 x 4 from the 70's, my John Birch SG built in 1973, my Washburn Falcon, late 70's, my Boss HM 2 pedal 1980.
I’m jealous of the John birch sg
GREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEETINGS
Thank you for combining the actual videos to tie in with the history of the longevity of your stuff
Love the PRS moment
Brilliant video to think of a video like this Rob. It is a great feeling to experience the nostalgia of coming back to playing guitars with the previous eras of your gear.
great idea for a video, also good to see you back Rob!
My oldest gear includes an original tweed Bassman, and tweed Princeton, both late 1959 by the date codes, and a 1937 Kalamazoo KG-21 archtop, in addition to a '64 Epi Coronet. Pedal-wise, I did have a Maestro FZ-1S fuzz, which seems to have disappeared, but still have an original Dr. Q and Y-Triggered filter, a Shin-Ei Companion fuzz, and recently acquired a Korg Mr. Multi.
The Bassman continues to be one of the best stories ever, and proof of the divine. Near 30 years ago, I was poking around a pawn shop, situated less than 100m from the very best and biggest music store in the region, and couldn't believe my eyes when I say the Bassman, looking every bit its age. The price tag was $40. I looked around back and saw that it only had one power tube, so no one could try it out, and had an empty slot where one of the 4 original P10R speakers used to be. I mumbled something about the missing speaker, and the clerk did some quick mental math. "Hmmm, only 3 of 4 speakers left". "Thirty dollars", he said. "Sure thing", said I. I plunked my money down, walked calmly out of the store with the amp, like it was no big deal, put it in the trunk and drove out of that city *so* fast, you'd think the local drug cartel had found out I'd sold them bags of corn starch posing as cocaine.
I thought he was Marty Music for a second...
LOL ...absolutely!!
English Marty
Some nice history there. Some of our gear ages better than we do Rob. 😂
I miss Jeff. What a great guy. Glad to see you with the PRS, you can't let that one go.
I'm glad your vids are back to gear and music. I hope the drama has subsided and your life and family are well. Rock on mate🤘🎸🎶
I’ve got a 1984 Ibanez roadstar in a sort of flame burst blue/black. I know it’s not that old, but my dad bought it new when he was in a band, and when he gave it to me he said “don’t sell it, keep it and play it”. It’s probably worth nothing, but it’s a cool thing to own.
Digging your old gear rob keep it up brother. Thanks for keeping it real.
I was expecting the PRS to sound the best out of all of them, but those pick ups on that ML-1 are amazing. Anyway, this was a great video man, this felt like the good old days.
I was with you back then. When I subscribed to your channel you had 11,000 subs. I remember watching a video about the harmonic minor and different modes of that scale. It was then I knew that you would sky rocket.
I Miss Jeff at World Guitars so so much. It's so great that you still own that guitar. An inspirational man for sure. I have my own Jeff guitar. And will never part with it. Welcome back Rob 👊💥
Love this video!! Classic, knowledgeable and funny Rob!!
I must say, for the first time in a while, when you were playing the prototype, your playing felt peaceful and inspiring. Glad to have that back
I enjoy watching your videos. Even an old guy can learn something new.
The oldest gear I own is my 6505. It left the factory on the 4th of June, 2009.
I recently bought a Peavey 5150 Blockletter on Ebay...built in 1992..yeahhh
Good to have you back Chappers. I'm still a huge supporter of you and your company and the artists who play them but it's even better to have you back man. God bless
The oldest gear I have is a Sound City L100 mark 3 amp from 1969. Still sounds amzing!
Great video bro. I love seeing Guitars that have meaning and story behind them. They are works of Art. Especially that PRS !! I believe that will be my next purchase
man one of your best videos yet that riff you played on that prs ten top was awesome!!!!!
Hey Chappers. The oldest gear I own would be my 1986 made in Japan Squier Strat, followed by my very first guitar I ever bought, a 1993 Washburng MG-104, when I started playing guitar
Greetings back. I've been somewhat playing guitar for fifty years but could never perfect a bar chord and thought i could never do that ;that there must be something wrong with my hand. About 2 months ago I ran across a entry level tutorial you did. You imparted a simple "trick" that changed my ability to progress. I'm grateful for your sort of off the cuff remark that rehabilitated my want and desire to get competent at guitar. I'm still watching the one episode over and over but have made gain ten times over. i consider you an asset to life. Press on , Tom G
Nice!!!.. I remember seeing the older videos! 🙂 .. Glad to see and hear you back to yourself Rob.. Cheers 🙌
That man who gave you the PRS, I want to hug him. That’s quite a sacrifice. I’ve never witnessed anybody giving such a high end guitar as great as that one away as a gift. Keep in mind that professional guitar players don’t really count since they are advertising for them. PRS, Gibson, etc, will give their guitars away if it benefits them. That mans giving was a straight up sacrifice. Nothing in return nor any hidden motives for the instrument just a thankful giving heart.
Man that’s a gorgeous amp head. There’s something about wood and steel working together. Just like in a guitar :)
Interesting video, thanks. Nice to have you back making content again. My oldest gear is difficult to determine - I have an Audition guitar, a Kay bass, a National bass and a couple of badgeless Kawei guitars from the 60s, and there's no way to know when each was built. Someday I hope to have a guitar older than myself - which would have to be an acoustic unless I win the lottery.
Anyone who listens to ufo is fine by me. Keep being yourself Rob. Love your vids, keep making them, I'll keep watching them.
Very cool walk down memory lane checking out some of your most vintage gear. I love seeing your old gear but, I especially love seeing the gear you love the most. Thanks for the tour. Also, looking forward to seeing you back on Anderton’s when that happens.
That PRS is insane. Beautiful guitar and story.
I had 2 amps at the same time once. I can’t imagine what it’s like to own a dozen or more to choose from lol.
-Glad to see the old Rob is back. Kudos amigo. That was fun. You should do more.
Thanks for getting back Rob
That amp sounds sooooooo gooooooooood! Awesome vid! Cool stuff that choras was cool to see.
I like old used gear 😊
great trip down memory lane,,,,always look forward to your videos,,,,always interesting,,,cheers from australia
Good on you Rob ! So glad you did what you did. Nice to have you back!
I am a Hitchin’er born and bred and it was wandering around machine head as a kid and just being entranced by the amazing guitars on display that lead me to a life long obsession with guitar music. RIP Jeff.
Old gear still in use = can't live without 💪😊
Missed ya man, great to have propper chappers back!
Great vid man, enjoy the little history on the Chapman guitars.
3:40 Man, you look so much younger now than you did then, weirdly. Keep doing whatever you're doing, seems to be working well!
My oldest piece of gear is a 1982 Boss CE-2. Picked it up last year. It pre dates me by quite some time and it looks like its brand new still.
My oldest piece of gear is a 1978 masterbuild japanese Kairi Y-100 classical guitar. It sings! Buying a guitar like this today is probably unaffordable.
I own around 14 Chapman guitars. Most of them are Legacy models, which for the price are the steal of the century. I took a chance on your brand and Riff City Guitars and am 200% satisfied with everything. Best guitars for the price point that I've found. I've been buying and selling guitars for 20 years (G.A.S. on a major timeline) and love the ones I own. Keep your chin up through all the crap going on. You have achieved more than I could imagine over the last decade and deserve all the blessings you receive. Love what you do and love your guitars! As a buddy of mine and I always say when parting ways..."Keep the strings bent!"
Damn I forgot how epic the Coolidge sounded!!
Yeah, such a shame Charles Coolidge only ever built a handful, that thing is fecking badass.
Nice to see you being you Rob, we all support you.
Keep up the good work.
I'd still like to meet you and buy you a beer/ coffee.
Great tip on the earplugs! Once your hearing is gone that’s it!
Love that Custom 24! I wish PRS would do matching headstocks more often!
A be-hatted Chappers to brighten up the day at the mix desk. Magic!
Yes Adam!! 😍🤘🎸🔥 Looking forward to seeing you both tonight 🙌
Wonderful to see Jeff here in your video. Myself and my wife spent many a happy time chatting to him about JV Strats (showing off my JV collection) and whatever subject was popular on the day at his Machinehead store in Hitchin (when he had time of course... very busy guy).
I remember walking in one day, and he said hey Paul, check this out, as he legged it over to (inside!) the hairdressers opposite and cranked out some power chords with the new radio setup he had just got in.....hilarious!
He did me some great deals.
Miss him greatly.
An amazing gift Rob.
That throwback video at 3:15 ! Age has done you well.
Hey Rob, I too am a spectacled husband and father of two who likes too shred, know from me that what you do for a living is both inspiring and necessary. We all run into bad luck and mishaps, it's an inevitable part of growing older, but one day it may inspire something, like a song, which will then inspire people, thus creating the cycle once more. I value your content, I enjoy your content, I will be here until the end when as you once quoted you will have a gandalf beard and no hair, I'll be right there with you. Take care, be who you are supposed to be as only you know how. Peace😉👍☀️
Thanks. Keep it real bro like your stuff on here and with the captain.
We are the same age but my gear is quite a bit older. My Steinberger GM4T is over 30 years old. Got lucky there. I sure as hell couldn't afford one today. Bought a Jackson Rhoads back in the 90s because of Randy but also Kirk and Dave. Still have that. Also have an H&K Tubeman V1 preamp/pedal from '91. It has a 12AX7 in it and it shreds. Somewhere, I've got a little Peavey Audition Chorus. The clean channel is as good as I've ever heard from an amp this size. Distortion channel sounds like the tone from Testament: The Ritual. What a time for metal the 90s were.
Good to have you back mate!
Cool stuff Rob!! Love that PRS!! Love the flashbacks too! The days of the old ML back when i first started watching you. Brings back good times of geetar exploration for me!! Rock on!
Last time I was this early we were still in the eu
Yep very dark days.....
You can't help yourself can you!
Lol
We still are
Awesome video! Ohhh the memories it brings back!
My oldest piece of gear is my 5150 2x12 from 1993. Killer amp
Giving us what we want! Great to have you back doing guitar nerd stuff, that's who we are!
That's a mad story about the PRS. A guitarist in my old band used to always talk about Jeff, was a real blast from the past seeing that video.
Finally. I’m glad your back
I can see why you said Dave Simpson's playing reminds you a bit of your younger days. Maybe one day we will get to see you two jam together (with a bass player & drummer !) ?
John North : Simpson is better than him , considerably ..... ?
Love That PRS Color Beautiful 👍👍🎶🎶🎸Awesome Video
My buddy/ex-drummer called me up one day about six years ago saying he had a surprise for me. Turned out it was an old, beat up parlor guitar he'd found in an dumpster and kept. He claimed it was from the seventies, but I googled around and it soon became clear it was actually from the mid-late 50's. The thing is so cracked you can't tune it to standard without it falling apart, but it's amazing for playing slide. Really glad my friend happened to walk past the dumpster that particular day
Glad you're happy again
Wollopin websnappers! That tone is so bloody rich. Oozing Mojo
Your gratitudenality is inspiring. :)
Seeing a smiling Rob is brightening my day, I really hated those dark times that he went through.
I hope that I'll be able to fly to NAMM next year, so I can get to see him, just to talk to the great man that is Rob Chapman.
Say strong, Guitar Hero.
Good to see you back Robby
My oldest gear isn't very old lol. I play my dad's 98 texas fat strat as often as I can though, gorgeous piece of kit!
You can look up the serial numbers of these Boss pedals. The oldest piece of gear that I own is a MIJ Boss HM-2, the serial number says it was made in 1984.
Nice to have you back Rob. I miss these videos every week.
Those DiMarzio 'The Chopper' pups are amazing. Really good selection for the neck position combined with a hotter bridge, but also is a great bridge pup replacement that balances well with most stock pups in the neck and mid. Have it in the neck on a Peavey EXP superstrat (combined with a Fred in the bridge) and also using one for the bridge on a MIM strat. Truly excellent pickup!
Great to see your vids back mate. Been following you for years with Andertons as well as your own channel. Cheers 🍻 from Australia.🍺🍺🍻🍻🎸🎸
Let the new CHAPter begin!
