Come on people, watching UA-cam is free of charge to you. Lighten up. I enjoy watching the Capt and Danish Pete having a good time with amazing guitars!!! Motivates me to play my guitar more.
They start at £3000. I could afford all of them and I've never even earned the national average wage. I'm about as far from a doctor or lawyer as you can imagine. However you're right about age - I'm 61. Start saving a bit every pay packet - and when you get older you'll be able to afford this stuff if it's a priority for you. But not if you just spend all your dosh ! If you save a bit each month it builds up over the years. It may sound impossible but it's amazing how much you save over a working lifetime - even if like me you never earn much. But it's all down to what is important to you. For me buying guitars was very important and I've bought (and sold)over 100 since 1979 so I have loads ! About 40 at the moment. Never bought using loans either, cash all day long.
@@gazzie12000 this is actually very interesting to me. I live in the united states, and make what is considered a solid income, but could never afford a guitar for $3900 as an expendable purchase. I can pay all of my bills without much worry, which I’m grateful for, but to purchase a 3000 gbp guitar without being heavily affected is not something I could pull off. I’m curious: is that 3000 from your savings, from your income, from payment installments, or from selling other gear? This is very interesting to me
@@danthegeetarman From savings. Yes sure I'll explain a little, and I'm not trying to boast or say "look at me", but just encourage people to save for things that are important to them. Because especially when you're younger (say from 16 to maybe 40/45) it can seem impossible to believe you can one day buy things like £3000 guitars! I always saved for what I wanted. I'm 100% debt free, mortgage paid off in my 40s. One thing I always did whatever I earned was try save an average of 10% of my pay. Obviously some months I'd have big bills so it dipped, but other times I'd get a good month and save more. I practiced "delayed gratification" ie not having some things - so I could have more important (to me) things in future. So I I would save until I could afford the thing I wanted, rather than settle for lesser things sooner. You need strong willpower but it works. Also, to prove my point (and I don't say this to show off) but to hopefully encourage others - when I say I can afford them all I mean ALL, not just one. I could buy them all quite a few times over - very easily. Good luck with your finances and guitar buying journey.😀.
@@aaronp8094 Well you wouldn't - the UK price includes import duty and 20% sales tax. It makes imported gutars expensive. Of course it works both ways - I went into a Hollywood music shop and saw my classic British amp priced like a house.
There is a complete series on this channel of Lee having guitar lessons with several different people. The rutbuster series is great because you can actually see him progress
I've been following Rock n Roll Relics since 2020 maybe? Only ever played one of them at Tone Shop Guitars in Dallas TX, just a cherry thunders, and I absolutely loved it. The relic work is second to none. Cool to see them on Andertons!
I traded my les Paul custom in for a revenge. I don't like the look of these rnrr guitars, not a fan of relics but it plays so good and the sound blew me away. I'm glad musicstreet had them in stock and convinced me to try one. I wouldn't have given them a 2nd glance otherwise. Completely blows CS gibson out the water. Yes expensive but still less than CS gibson.
Price on these is absolutely absurd lmfao. I could get like one used suhr AND a used core PRS for that. Especially with the economy how it is currently and how price-concious consumers have become, they are out of their minds if they think there will be a lot of demand for these.
got 1 many years ago double cut dogear but gloss finish in mettalic copper very cool guitar .got it through an english store that did them about 10 years ago
Who is buying these??? Crazy prices out of touch with reality gibson struggle to sell them at that price and we all know they a boutique thing to be put on display at that price, 15 hundred quid epiphones working man might have to go for.
Who's buying them? People that can afford them. Contrary to what you might think, you don't need to be Warren Buffett to afford a $5k guitar. Also... they're quite a bit cheaper in the US where they're made. Sounds like these were slapped with a hefty import tariff and probably include VAT.
@@reverb508 what you say probs true but when you can buy 2 gibson customs for this price i think it a fair question, there so many brilliant guitars today in that 1 grand to £700 range so maybe people have more money than sense but it your money to spend so have at it.
@@deluxeedition46 I don't know if you've looked at the prices of Gibson Custom Shop models, but you are absolutely not buying two of them for the price of a Rock N Roll Relic... Also, implying people are foolish for buying an expensive guitar just reeks of jealously. You're right. There are plenty of great guitars in the sub $1k range; enjoy them and don't worry about what other people are buying. Life's too short to be butthurt that someone can afford a guitar and you can't.
The thing is that people who buy these type of guitars from Gibson or Fender will know that they won't decrease in value. It's like an investment and the Gibsons and Fenders will keep their value simply because of the name. These guitars, while very nice and probably even better than G and F guitars, won't have that. Yet. That might change but I doubt it.

I was lucky to buy a Rock N Roll Relics guitar back in 2016 for less than 2 grand I own an exact replica of Johnny Thunders Chinese Script TV Yellow Les Paul Junior, it is the only one in existence and is actually endorsed by Thunders Estate. It’s an absolutely phenomenal guitar with a hand wired David Allen pickup. Glen Campbell also played Rock n Roll Relics Guitars
I will NEVER understand why Gibson doesn’t make a Gibson USA TV Yellow double cut Les Paul Junior. Not a tribute model. Not a $5k custom shop model. Just a standard double cut LP Junior, in TV Yellow, with the classic specs. They would be enormously popular! I know so many people who want that specific guitar (including myself), but don’t have $5k laying around for Custom shop version. At least do a limited run. It’s just bad business for them to not make them.
Guys, the Revenge is effectively a Mosrite, tweaked to avoid lawsuits. The black and white one is even called "JR" - Johnny Ramone anyone? It's frigging gorgeous.
for those complaining about the price, might I recommend buying a well made guitar you can afford, and playing the hell out of it until it looks like one of these. like micro-transactions that increase rank, or player level in your favorite videogame, if you want the accolades on display signifying years of use and hard work, you’re gonna have to pay to skip the line. I’ll never be in a position to buy one of these, but their quality is massively apparent. give small builders like this your money instead of custom ordering from fender or gibson I say.
Excellent guitars. They've been around for many years and very respected. Basically a high end small business building Gibson-esque guitar far better than Gibson make them. they retain their value super well too
Hearing the sounds, loving the appearances, I was vibing hard til I clicked the links for prices. That party came to a crashing end fast lol I was expecting maybe 2k to 2500 usd, but not more than a Gibson Custom pricing.
loved the vid guys, oh GIBSON have just released a new guitar called the victory, strat inspired fab looking axe guys you have to demo them , fab colours my fave the chameleon green burst, twood be neto to watch Pete give a good going over, cost around two thousand 600 pounds.
I was just reading about TV Jones pickups the other day: The MagnaTron (or Megatron!) is quite different to the FilterTron (or TV Classic). Apparently it's more like two Strat pickups next to each other - with magnetic slug pole pieces instead of bars and screws. So probably not surprising that Lee found them sounding different. That Jr sounded particularly fab by the way!
Personally if I was going to drop the 4-6k on a new boutique guitar I'd rather support a brand like this, which goes more direct to the actual builders, vs the giant brands who gobble the profits and give them to God-knows-who CEO and executives, etc. Downside is that resale value on these isn't a high as a Gibson, but upside is that if you look in the used market in USA you can find these for amazing prices. Less options in the UK, sadly. But maybe if Andertons can sell some for a few years there will be some used availability there eventually as well.
I never understand this line of thinking. Sure, buying a Fender means you are contributing to the profits of the Fender shareholders and board members. But it also means you are contributing to the paycheck of thousands of regular and blue collar workers who Fender employee. Part of the money going to Fender, Gibson, PRS, etc also goes to the thousands of families who have members working there. What makes you think that giving that entire amount to one single person is the ethically better choice?
@@SohamBhattacharya3105 I can't speak toward the subjective discussion of ethics and morality. But I can say at least when I give it to the small luthier I know exactly where the money is going, vs not having a say who gets my $$ and how it is distributed within the larger company. Call it less about ethics and more about specific control over my money. I dont think there is necessarily a right or wrong answer here. But I will say, your argument could literally pertain to any major company. Should I choose to not eat at a local pizza shop because my money spent at Pizza Hut funds a company which employs thousands more people? And more importantly, this is all hypothetical nonsense anyway, if neither of us are actually choosing to spend our money on these guitars. One can argue over such silly things to no end, but I'd rather just play guitar. ;-)
Oh my… I prefer the revenge. Wow. Just wow. I love single p90 jnrs. The price is quite high but holy crap balls it looks and sounds divine. I’m guessing it’s easier to ask for forgiveness than permission ? Isn’t it ???!!
I'm not doubting their value as a hand made instrument, but if I walked into Andertons with £5500 i'd more likely be leaving with a pair of MIJ Fenders, a PJD, a PRS SE, an Epiphone Sheraton and a 5w valve amp to play them through, with plenty of change.
The funny thing is I read awhile back somewhere stating that they use Precision Guitar Kits directly and using their kits. Unless something's changed over the years.
The tone wood thing is so weird, especially if you're on the side that says tone wood obviously makes a difference. Why? Wouldn't it be easy to prove if it made the kind of differences often attributed to it? I've played really nice guitars for enough years to know that there are no consistent and significant differences re tone woods. And I've never listen to a riff or solo and thought, that's definitely a rosewood fretboard. That's gotta be a maple top at least a half each thick. That's gotta be mahogany from the southern hemsiphere, basswood just can't do that.
If I had the money I would be tempted over the big brands. I love my Gibson and Fenders but I have a few quirky things I have put together myself that throw me out of my comfort zone. The Thunder is great but quirkier models really have some vibe. One of my own creations has a TV Jones and I love how they sound. You really need the tone control on more gainy sounds!
@@zacharysmithingell5460 Oh yeah. It kinda does. Ive played one RnR Relic at my local guitar center a couple years ago. It was used, set up poorly, sounded incredible and was still the best looking, feeling and sounding guitar in the used department. Maybe in the whole store. I should have pulled the trigger at $1,850. But they stopped haggling on used gear and it kinda put me off. But anyway, it was they're Les Paul but in gold sparkle and HEAVY relic'd. Just killer looking. Never find one that cheap again. Have a wonderful day my friend.
These are super sick man I saw them the other day while browsing paint jobs like that on those sort of specs would be alot more cash under any other name I like these small builders like the PJD boys you get good shit for the reasonable top end prices I'll say lol
You said T.V. Jones Magnatrons. But your website says, "the Mojotone MojoTron captures the true essence and vibe of the ‘60s originals." I'm so confused!
The reason no one stocks them is because no one can afford them lol

Most definitely. It's been fun watching his progression
He's better but still a generic blues player. His level should be a minimum for everyone

That's gotta be mahogany from the southern hemsiphere, basswood just can't do that.
From your description of the "Thunders" relic, you don't mention the inspiration for this guitar, Johnny Thunders. Do you even know who he was.
Hey Mr. Pete it's called a stinger on the back of the guitar just like with Gibson Les Pauls
If I had the money I would be tempted over the big brands. I love my Gibson and Fenders but I have a few quirky things I have put together myself that throw me out of my comfort zone. The Thunder is great but quirkier models really have some vibe.
One of my own creations has a TV Jones and I love how they sound. You really need the tone control on more gainy sounds!
When are you guys just dropping an album of all these Andertons jams? More than the reviews, it's just a pleasure listening to you guys play.
VOLUTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pete that design on the back of the headstock is called a stinger
The maroon double Cut with van stripes is The One.
Couldn't agree more, reminds me of the Yamaha SG/SBG
@@zacharysmithingell5460 Oh yeah. It kinda does. Ive played one RnR Relic at my local guitar center a couple years ago. It was used, set up poorly, sounded incredible and was still the best looking, feeling and sounding guitar in the used department. Maybe in the whole store. I should have pulled the trigger at $1,850. But they stopped haggling on used gear and it kinda put me off. But anyway, it was they're Les Paul but in gold sparkle and HEAVY relic'd. Just killer looking. Never find one that cheap again. Have a wonderful day my friend.
The price's are crazy 😂
And then you look the price. Geeeezzzzzz
These are super sick man I saw them the other day while browsing paint jobs like that on those sort of specs would be alot more cash under any other name I like these small builders like the PJD boys you get good shit for the reasonable top end prices I'll say lol
I like the headstocks
Pete, It's a stinger.
They call it a Stinger on the back of the Head Stock/Upper Neck guys.
Glad they're getting highlighted. Always thought they were a cool company
You said T.V. Jones Magnatrons. But your website says, "the Mojotone MojoTron captures the true essence and vibe of the ‘60s originals." I'm so confused!
11:45 that is the tone pro bridge, designed to get the proper intonation for these types of guitar..Tom Bukovac made a video about them....❤
