    Rob and Lee together again! I love Pete and all the other fellas too, but the old Chappers and The Captain bring back so many great memories. All the stupid, idiotic stunts they used to do are the best memories I have from a bygone era. All the Christmas videos, elfs, dropping guitars off roofs, blowing up speakers and all the other shenanigans that made them the comedic duo. And I learned a ton about the guitar. Love it!

    I feel like Rob, Lee and Pete are the top gear of the guitar world. Rob is the Jeremy, Lee is Richard and Pete is James. Many companies have tried to follow and they just don’t come close. There is an emptiness to the other companies videos but Anderson’s have just nailed it. I think you guys need to make a best of video such as robs crazy blindfold guesses, best general moments and others. You should celebrate your channel with a thank you to everyone who is involved as part of the best of video. Doesn’t have to be for any reason or milestone but just because. Cheers for the videos, I’ve ended up spending thousands!

You can tell they are great friends and it shows in the videos. As for Rob his guitar mastery is off the charts. I could sit and listen to Rob play all day. His sense of melody and different styles is second to none. Listen to Dorje or Clockwork Wolf & Co. you know that Rob is the real deal. Rob really inspires me to sit down and play guitar. In my personal opinion it just doesn't get any better than a video with these two in it. I hope you have more of these in the "can" for us. Lol

Let's see more blindfold challenges with pedals and amps. Digital vs tube amp. Circuit board vs hand made amps. My pedals are two Boss GT-1000's, one Boss ME-90, one Eventide H90. I keep one GT-1000 at home to experiment with on a 32 inch monitor for editing and a road tested patches GT-1000 for stage that I just play thru. Getting back into looping with a two track 15 hour Boss RC-500. Can hook up a second (slave) RC-500 with a MIDI cable to double tracks or sequences.

    He knows these things about these instruments. 3 of the 6 in order, he was ab;e to make the call on the PRS & LP for identification. These are obviously instruments I wou;dn't bother to look at beyond their price tags. Realize they were higher up on the rack or in their own room of expensive. So I'll wander back out into the area where they keep the Chinese & Mexican guitars.
