Link not working for me at the moment.
I once entered a guitar store just to hand over a job application and nothing else. I left with a Marshall 412 cab...
I once entered a guitar store to check out the amp. I went home with 10 picks
I once entered a guitar shop and went home with herpes.
Hjalmar Lindø I once went into a guitar store to buy a capo and came back with a bass and bass amp
Well, Did you get the job?
I once entered a guitar store and came home with a Gibson Les Paul special. My wife screamed "I told you to pickup some tomatoes!!"
Mark Holcomb over there almost had you both leaving the shop with empty wallets. Good products mixed with good salesman are a dangerous combination.
He was good was he lol
Hahaha mark holcomb most vids I see little dude is clean cut and proper this one he’s flashing jailhouse tats long greasy hair. Pleking guitars
Hahahaha xD
Maybe it’s just me but I like to be left alone while I try out new gear....less salesman pressure and I get to mess with the settings myself
agree
Salesman are a lot less pushy when they know your a professional, especially in the music gear sector, also these guy's work around music everyday, so it's a lot more mundane to them
zorth42 I had a great experience at this store (Righteous Guitars) when I bought a guitar. The salesman helped me pick out a few guitars to try, suggested (and helped me dial in) the amps to demo them on, then left me alone in the room. Came back from time to time to see how I was doing. No pressure whatsoever, just help when I needed it. I had a very good idea what I was after when I went in there. I was a very happy customer!
At Righteous they like to make sure you get to know what your trying but they will leave you alone when your ready to put it through its paces.
I get where you are coming from...but...that's a 3000 dollar amp which can't be replaced....whenever i try out expensive gear, i appreciate an attentive salesman, most of the ones ive dealt with were far more knowledgeable about the gear in their shop than i was.
Wow, more shops should have the level of customer service that Righteous Guitars has. Staff was truly knowledgeable and knew exactly which direction to steer Noah in for his amp of choice. I don't see service and employees like this anymore, even in the local mom and pop shops
That’s why they’re the best!
Imduk our city would be happy if we had an actual guitar store. And to be treated nicely. Wow that’s an added bonus. Our former store employees were busy fighting with one another. (The employees and management and owners). It was scary in there.
Visit Walt Grace Vintage in Miami and you’ll know what customer service is
No kidding. It might be worth a road trip to visit that one.
lol, mate. i think the camera and the youtube channel helps for receiving for that level of customer service. it's basically a long form ad for the store.
Dude their customer service was on point! Idk if you just like knew the guy or what. But the guitar shops around my area need to watch this and learn some customer service skills. Super impressed!
I play a Tele through a Cure. Fantastic combination. The Cure really is a great amp. The "level" control really is amazing.
Dude after watching many channels with their own versions of "Tour/Artist's life Vlogs", yours is definitely the most watchable and enjoyable. I dont know what sets yours apart but what you have going on is so good. I binged watch all of them during my lunch break and now cant wait for your new content!
If you are serious about dropping the cash on a new amp, bring your own guitar
I second this! I bring my #1 and pedals every time I’m really looking at bringing a new amp home!
It was my first thought too when I saw them taking random guitars off the wall
ya true... I mean... idk about you but my music store is so chill I could just bring it back if it didn't play well with my stuff. also could pick my guitar off the wall if I needed.
very true👍
@@verysillypenguin What's your music store?
That Deluxe was money. And not even a crazy price for a clean '67.
Noah just seems like one of the nicest dudes to hang out with honestly
If you're in the ATL area, drive about 45 minutes north on hwy 400 and check them out :-P But seriously, it's a sweet spot. Especially now that Atlanta Bass Gallery has closed, perhaps the only boutique-centric shop left in the greater metro.
This was an enjoyable vid,especially as my own guitar shop has just gone to the wall after nearly 50 years. Nice to see a knowledgeable guy helping and not pushing sales.Great Rhett!
Thanks Peter!
What a great vid. Congrats to Noah on a nice Z purchase. Nice shop, too. A 'Plek' in house?? Wow. My IBZRRSr was 'plek'd' during a restoration. Plays great after 10 years.
Man that guitar shop looks so much more clean and professional than any guitar center I've ever been in. I would love to have one of those guitar shops here in town (Dallas,Texas)
Even Zeroes Can Be Heroes check out The Guitar Sanctuary in McKinney, TX
@@chrisyates326 I'll definitely have to do that some day
The Guitar Sanctuary in McKinney and Tone Shop Guitars in Addison.
@@chrisyates326 thanks for the heads up
I love when the salesman askes him what his price range was....dude came out with exactly what the salesman didnt want to hear "yeah not really". You could see the salesmans patience and interest in customer service instantly begin to evaporate....and then..."1k to 1500"....that salesman came back to life like he got hit by lightning..."I GOT YOU!!!!!" LMFAO
Wow you saw al that in one second? I just saw a salesman strum the guitar he was holding with a game face on. I think you just projected what you were thinking :)
That guitar shop looks awesome. I wish there were shops like that where I live. Great video
"Just what I needed" playing in the background. I find that amusing.
Oh ben ... when i see your fingers dialing in on the amp my heart rate goes faster 😂 You gotta love the guy ! I had a ''ben'' at the store i went since i was 10yo and he recently past away ( i'm now 35 ) . I do miss him and realize how cool he was!
Went to Thomann, Germany last month. I only fell in love with some strats, and I already own one. Decided to be rational and left without an instrument. God it was a pain.
Its always a pain to leave the store empty handed.
My life lesson so far: never go to a store without a budget and without the set intention to buy something. Even if you don't you won't feel like being sucked in.
Be prepared for your own good, the seduction is hard to fight.
@Green Frog no thanks xD
I was there for the first time the other day! Awesome shop and selection of gear!
Rhett I would have bought that Fender in a heart beat. Here in Australia that amp would be 7k plus if you could find one. God, my dream machine.
Richard Turner i was surprised by the « low » price tag too 😮
that deluxe sounds really good! those amps are like stocks too
Rhett you really need that Fender amp because,.......there is no plan B. 👌😁
BTW, I’m a bass player but I like watching your videos. Great stuff. 👍
My saying is always "If that doesn't work I'll go to Plan B." Why? Because even if I don't have Plan B all thought out, unless I'm against a time limit, I can always figure something out, some Plan B. Life always has options, often better than Plan A. Nevertheless, Rhett should get that Fender before someone else gets it, if he really likes it. One caution - used car salesmen learned long ago that a clean car was worth hundreds more than even a lightly soiled one. Today used cars get detailed to add value, and new car lots have a full-time car wash employee. That Fender might have been detailed to get it so clean., making customers think it had hardly ever been used.
That Carmen Ghia has DOUBLED in price in 4 years! Wow
I take my 15 yr old nephew anytime I go shopping. The kid is a walking internet Google master! With his phone I can find out within a minute prices,specials,rebates, reviews..... Same with car dealers. They know you know EVERYTHING. If Amazon continue it's trajectory brick mortar stores are doing the way of the DODO bird.
That 67 seriously sounded amazing
That '67 Blackface🤤
Unbelievably immaculate. Any Blackface amp looks cool mint condition or not. Local shop had a Blackface deluxe (don't remember the year) I was able to play through and it had the tobacco stains on the grill. It was beautiful
The more content I watch featuring Ben and Righteous, the more I want to book a flight and go check it out! The only concern I have is for my wallet... I could tell how much Noah just wanted to buy that guitar, too - but he held strong!!! Nicely done.
The Level control on the Cure is amazing. Love mine.
Righteous Guitars is roughly a 15 minute drive from my house. It's probably a good idea that I don't stop in too often. I could get myself in a lot of trouble in that store.
Wow what a great guitar shop. I like how the guy went to tune up the guitar before handing it to the customer. So many times I've tried guitars that had old rusty strings on them and were completely out of tune, which sucks...
Great stuff.the store is awesome...love to see an Epi lp on that machine.. I hav e a 1962 tribute..it is really sweet
What a great store ... a fantastic selection of instruments and amps, and knowledgeable staff (watched the Les Paul 2019 plek video as well these guys know their stuff). Fun to watch poor Noah (and you Rhett) go through the same travails and indecision and personal justification/rationalization the rest of us non pro musicians go through. I'm going through it at this very moment with a Rickenbacker and the one golden rule is that any other guitar player with no skin in the game will be the "just do it" enabler if only to confirm their own decisions... :)
2:53 Did Ben get it right? Really cool that he "guessed" that correctly especially this is not the first time I seen him "guessed" what Rhett needed and get it right!😮😮😮
wow so cool i just saw him on TV...ive been checking your pedal board vids...Im a 40 year player LA based..good clips
Cool! I'm headed down there today. Nice to see them in some videos.
That’s the best looking guit shop I’ve ever seen. Maybe I don’t put much but it looks awesome In there!
Mmh, so he didn't even bring his own guitar? Great it worked out, and thx for sharing.
I'm so glad I found this channel.
Dude mentioned the Mazerati-- that's the sign of a Real Dr, Z guy. Signed, a very happy Stang Ray owner. Now, if he knows about the Maz GT (very rare amp) and the other more obscure models, he'd really be impressive!
You need a Victory vc 35 deluxe head combined with a celestion gold in a closed back cabinet. In the cabinet a square so their are 4 Chambers.
Damn that place is Awesome i had no idea it was even existed have too with my buddy
GAS is wonderful. Dr. Z's are the real deal. I had an EZG-50, and I still have my Carmen Ghia, and they're made 10 miles from me.
I used to have a fantasy that Noah would hire me to play guitar in his band. I was going to show up at the first rehearsal with a Carmen Ghia!
A great boutique-sounding amp for a good (but climbing) price are the old Trace Elliot Velocettes. They need to be modded to not blow themselves up (hah), but once that’s done, they not only sound amazing, but are very dependable.
That store looks amazing.
Back again to watch Rhett and Noah go shopping!
Hey! There’s Jeff! I looove shopping at Righteous Guitars.
Even as a drummer I could appreciate this place, incredible!
Him not ever taking the tone knob to center drove me insane. Was hearing everything with very little high end the entire time through that guitar setting
I know it wasn't the focus of the video, but every time I see one of those Divided by 13s I want one more. They just have the coolest design.
They have an in-house Plek machine??! Jesus H
Ok I give up, I’ve been watching your vids randomly for three days love the content and I don’t even own and electric! Lol. Just another Martin acoustic owner subing to your channel.
Cute dog!
Since you are in Atlanta area you should check out Goodsell amps which are made there. Super 17 might be the ticket.
Looks like an awesome guitar shop!
Hey that guy used to be the store manager in the guitar center of Marrietta Georgia. Absolutely great guy. That store went to shit after he left.
I hope every guitar shop has this service.
I'm curious on your friend's feedback on the Cure? Keep up the great videos!
Why are retailers in other countries so polite and helpful? Dude, I live in Perú, and when you enter into a guitar store or something, they barely even see you or ask if you're searching something
Que mal jajaja
Creo entonces que es un problema Latino, yo soy de Colombia y cuando compré mi primera eléctrica asi ni me la dejaron probar y me dijeron que no podía tocar los amplificadores, incluso cuando ya había decidido comprar uno, además de que les pedí un rig para metal y hardrock y me dieron una Strat y un Vox
@@Juanter Como ya decía arriba, vivo en Perú y aqui a penas tienen un concepto de lo que la atención al cliente y te tratan como si fueras a entrar a la tienda a robar.. aparte la mayoría de productos desde guitarras, efectos, amplificadores, etc, te los tratan de vender entre 80% y 150% más del precio original porque los vendedores creen que los clientes "no saben"
Julius Krüger no that’s typical here too. This store is very polite. We’re in a big city and don’t even have any guitar shops left. The one that was here treated everybody including themselves terrible.
I have that custom hand wired Fender Deluxe. Sounds awesome but had to plug in a new tube after only a few moths.
Morgan amp or Hiwatt amp with a higher end PRS!! Tele's sound pretty fine though!
I drool like a five year old in a candy store when I see gear. New gear smell can't be beat!
I actually laughed at loud when you said, "Ill have to sell something"
Dr Z is always a good choice! I miss my Carmen Ghia 😢
I was thinking Dr Z when he entered the store, and Gretsh.Personally would prefer a ES-345, not that I could play it, lol.
You honestly could not have picked a better place to shop for a guitar or amp. Even I E heard of them and I live in Australia
Cure is a great amp. It's on my wish list.
Hi Rhett. Can I give you some advice? Hard won. If its right, its right. If you have a doubt, there is no doubt.
Always, I repeat, ALWAYS, buy the one that's right and shunt the doubts.
No matter the cost.
HTH
PS: Never worry about depreciation when it comes to musical perfection. Every time a musician buys the tools of his trade, he is buying a moment (or several) of fulfillment and perfection. That is what makes him a better musician. Never worry about the money. Money is just money; you can always make more. You can't simply pass on perfection.
when youre buying a guitar or amp or effect its always best to bring the other stuff with you so you get the real tone, there is so many things that effect tone in electric guitars its crazy...
i mainly play acoustic and its easy to compare 2 different acoustics, but its always funny how someone tries to show me how their electric guitar sounds and im like ye, ok... but im hearing 50 guitar and 50 amp... even with just these two factors there is limitless combinations then add strings, effects and you got yourself a multiverse of combinations lol
Rhett- a legend in his own mind
Dr.Z Amps RULE!
What a nice music store for a change
Let me know when you want to go Tommy Bahama shopping. You and Noah were speaking a foreign language!
Idea for another video, in light of your experience with that sweet 67: If I took away all of your pedals, and you had to choose a guitar and an amp to gig with, what would it be? Nothing else on stage but a tuner.
Dude, great idea!
New amp days are always awesome. :)
Man I should of went there when I was in ATL for the Beato masterclass.
Bryan Lettow when does he do those? Would love to attend one!
Fun Fact: That guy (Doug?) is held up my the counter 1:11 and still 11 minutes later 12:07 Anywho, congats to Noah! Cheers!
Great vid. Thanks for sharing.
Fun video..! Do another when you justify that ‘67 Deluxe..! 😀
Dude, Ben is the MAN!
Now that's a guitar shop.
Salesman that know they're stuff..awesome
that reminds me that day i went to a guitar store to buy picks and string and came back home with a Gibson Les Paul standard ... i've never been to a music store since that day, too dangerous!
Utaï fuck me wish I could afford to do that!
Watching this in the future. The Dr Z Cure is now $2899 Cdn. Helluva long way from $1150 US. At that price with the current exchange rate it would still only be $1600. This is why I currently don't own an amp.
Once upon a time I went into a music store to test a pedal and walked out with a 3000€ Les Paul. Didn't buy the pedal nor even remember what it was. Still have the Les Paul tho.
Chris cornell working in a music store
Why didn't he bring his guitar?
Yeah i always bring my own to buy amp though best advice ever i heard from internet
No Cover Charge lol. Try it with a tele? Sure. Pulls down Fender CustomShop '63RI NAMM 2018...
Right. I feel like he steered him toward that Dr Z Cure
@@sinjon Or did he really NAIL IT from what the customer had said he was looking for at that price?
I have been there a couple times, I bought an amp there. I was not told they have a Plek machine. Now my brain spinzzz. :/
I wish the people at guitar center were like the folks at this shop, so willing to be helpful and friendly. At my local GC most of them act like I'm bothering them if I wanna talk shop. Which is terrible considering most people that work there play something so u would think they would enjoy chatting about gear and music
Monk of the Funk - They pay them peanuts and they work every weekend. Nobody that works there is happy because they’re in retail hell.
The guitar center on NE. Expressway in Atlanta has a great staff. But they got 5 home town stores with in 6 miles to compete with. And all of those stores have a great staff.
old deluxe reverbs are the best ever
"What price range are you in ?", pulls a White Falcon off the wall .. X-D
I see a Jackson Ampworks, Correct me if I am wrong. Did you try it out? I have A Britain 4.0. And I love it.
You will regret that Deluxe dude. It is deee-luxe. A 67 Blackface? You could have got it for 2 and a half. Shoot, Fender is doing repros of handwired Deluxes now that cost more than that.
the guy in the store looked like Stone Gossard
Noah is literally me in a guitar shop
He did buy the 1st 1 he tried however ,, looks n sounds good to me .
That is an amazing store... I wish there was one like that near me!
the bazooka was gold ...
Wow this is exactly what I did lmao. Grabbed the cure for a cheap price on reverb.
