- While most companies are closing physical locations and going to online-only sales, Bootlegger Guitars has gone the other direction and opened a store and showroom down in Redondo Beach! Imagine this: Guitars, cigars, whiskey, a motorcycle, a highly modified 1954 Cadillac.... all of this together makes the Bootlegger Guitars store experience! Stay tuned for future videos where I'll be checking out some of these guitars in more detail. There are some headless guitars, headless basses, and more traditional guitars with modern twists.

I’m always up for a great cigar and listening to good music. I don’t drink alcohol. I would love this shop.
Smoking one as I'm watching this , great place but I'm on the east coast...
The US postmaster can't be drunk while on duty at UA-cam.
This place looks amazing, it reminds me of the old mom and pop guitar shops from back in my day. I'm 60 years old and it reminds me of that time. This is awesome if I am ever in SoCal I will definitely be stopping in. Chuck seems like a down to earth. Perfect. Kind of guy that just loves what he does. I will definitely be checking out bootlegger guitars right now. Thank you Max for everything.
Hey Max, it was awesome to meet you and Richard at the Leo Jaymz booth
That's awesome! I wish more companies could open up stores so people could try them out, but I understand that in this economy it's pretty impossible to do.
I wonder why (sarc) maybe because of the imbecile in the Whitehouse 🤔
Not impossible, just very difficult, and expensive. There are always people willing to help fund new projects if they believe in the idea.
That's because the imbecile in the Whitehouse ruined the economy!
Very cool guitar shop
Enjoying my favorite Bourbon as I watch this. Killer place they have.
I wish him well. Brick and mortar is a tough go these days but like you said he was already paying for a space.
Cool guitar Store ! 👍🇺🇸. Nice to see a place for people to check out cool guitars !
Excellent looking guitars and a cool store to try one out,we can only wish them the best of luck,and hope we see more stores open across the US like this,never enough mom and pop shops,if your a player,I know I'm getting tired of mail order guitars, need to feel one in my hands,before washing more money.
Max. Thank you for this video. I can't believe that I live 3 miles away from that shop and I never knew about it. I’m going to go there.
Pretty cool the American Dream the dude living it ❤❤❤❤❤
I love the bobber in the window!
Yes, Personal Passion and Quality 🤟
The old pan-head motorcycle is clean
That's a new Evo style motor. Excellent old-school style chopper, in any case!
Glad you guys dig it. Actually it’s 2 crashed sportsters. One straight frame that we cut the rear out and installed a fixed suspension. We then borrowed or stole many different parts including the rice rocket headlight. It’s now a modified bobber.
That’s really great, I live probly less than 4 miles from there & hadn’t heard anything about the place! Looks like I’ll be goin down soon for a shot of whiskey & test drive a couple of his axes! I ve never tried a Bootlegger guitar, now I’ve gotta reason to, thanx Max. That was Very cool!
Nice tour Max. Miss my So-Cal life.
This was cool. It's great to see people with a passion for what they're doing seeing their ideas come to life. Hope he does well!
Love the Vibe especially Whiskey & Cigar's with Guitar's Amps Nice... Cheers 🍻 🥃🥃 🎸 🎵🎶
Very cool guitar 🎸 shop and store front. 👍
Thanks for doing this video about Bootlegger Guitar.
After watching your video, I visited Bootlegger and purchased th Hounder 1 sunburst offset HSS guitar. Chuck is a cool dude.
Love your channel, Max. Rock on.
Great to hear. I'm so glad you checked out the shop!
Thank you Dave
A guitar showroom with a cigar and whisky lounge?! I'd say this is a coolest worldwide candidate here.
Looks like an interesting place to visit and they seem to make quality guitars. When I’m down in RB I think I’ll swing by. Thanks for the tour!
Very Cool, Thankyou. What an awesome store front for an amazing Guitar Company. All the Best. Cheers
Id be down for a shop like this. I'd be in at least once a week.
I love seeing the cigar smoke hahaha! That store is awesome. It's like all my favorite things at one place and it's in California! Can't even imagine the hoops he jumped through to get that going.
Next stop should be Orange California... so many guitar players .... near Fullerton (ancestorial home of Fender & current G&L)... We have vintage guitar shops ... but not a real deal lounge... we want a lounge!!
Those Royal superstrats look killer!
They are awesome!
Very cool guitar shop. Cigar and Whiskey. What else more do you need?
Traveling to LA for business trip next week. Yup; gonna stop there! Cars, motorcycles, and guitars pretty much sums up my hobbies. Anyone who has a can of WD-40 in their car cupholder is someone I want to hang with. I'll bring the whiskey.
Wow what a great place, good luck to him.
Dude that was awesome. Especially when you drove that beast!
A nice space for some cool guitars. Hope to check it out next time I'm down that way.
Why have your own shop if you're not going to enjoy it?
Hell yeah Chuck!
My favorite 3 things cigars , guitars and whiskey. Perfect!
I like old school, I’m an old school guy, born in the 60’s, I like spending my money at mom & pop shops
However the guitar quality of today has nearly hits its peak, if it hasn’t already .. what could possible be next
Slimed roasted and rolled necks, jumbo stainless steel round ball end frets, locking tuners, bone or graphite nuts, OG Floyd’s or the 1000 series .. sorta the standard now for under 1000$
We’re in guitar heaven 😂
What an amazing shop!
It's too bad it's in California. The bars on the windows tell the old story.. set up shop in Florida you'll be taxed a lot less and then I can come and visit you🎉🎉
Nice shop thanks 🙏 you 😊
Cool dude, nice place!
Great segment. 👍
Thanks! 👍
Good luck to them. Hopefully the rent isn't to crazy for his location. 😮
What is up Guitar Max!!
_
......The store seems to offer a large choice. ....Great.
many thanks

Cool guitar store and Danzig makes a guest appearance ! Wow about that .
Ok I know this is about guitars… but that car is bad ass! 🤘
Totally!
Steve Stine helped design the royal guitar . Very cool
He's a great player!
Cool! The store looks very nice!!!
I've never smoked a cigar and I've never drunk whiskey or any other hard liquor. I have owned a number of motorcycles however, and I own 41 guitars. Interesting video thanks Max.
That store reminds me of a cigar bar not far from my house. I hope the store owner has a bright future.
Very cool! I miss going to an actual locally owned physical guitar store. The ones I used to go to for many years are all gone now. That's cool he has his own brand! The major brands cost a fortune to stock with all their requirements making it very hard for the small stores to even carry.
I absolutely LOVE my Bootlegger Spade (two of them)!
Really cool....
I grew up a couple of miles away from them. Will have to check it out the next time I visit my folks. btw that Guitar Center in Lawndale is a shell of its former self.
Guitars and cars and motorbikes are cool
Here in Bakersfield, might have to check it out !
Jameson! Solid choice.
I live a few miles away from the distillery. Slainte!
Bem legal esses instrumentos ❤
😮 that is 💯 my type of shop ❤️ 🥃 🎸
Good stuff dude, nice to have walked with you on the way to NaMM. I live in SoCal and never heard of this brand…thanks a Bunch, you up for a game of chess next time you’re in?
I would love to come down there and play you a game of chess. Oh of course we could jam for a while too That would be kick ass 🤘🤘🤘🤘
Maybe start a contest where one of your UA-camrs can come down and jam with you for a weekend or something That would be badass😮 Great video great store. Chuck seems like a cool guy. Really a cool store. Great video work as always. See you on the next one Max....
First person from this post to come and play a game of chess, will loose… 😂 ok First person will get a cool Bootlegger Leather Strap.
First guy from Max video to beet me in chess will get a … hardy handshake.
P.S. ______ TNX, GUITAR MAX,,,FOR THIS VID,,,❤
It's so funny to hear Bad Religion-style background music in a Guitar MAX video.
Take the Slauson cut off to Redondo Beach for a sip of Irish whiskey, a stogie, a 5min. game of speed chess, a motorcycle ride & a jam.
Yep, come on over
Sick
Right on right on right on
Very cool, but I’m a LONG way from So. Cal.
I actually had a chance to purchase one of their headless models while they were still on Reverb mainly...Man, missed opportunity to grab one of them.
You can still buy online!
About to open a music store upstate NY 👍
This is so fantastic. I love little stores and he has really interesting products! It’s refreshing… This was a really great video, Max. 💕
Glad you enjoyed it!
Redondo? He should have some surf guitars...
🎉
Clapton👀
Enjoy it while you can hopefully the musician community will be better than the regular community that's breaking into all the stores and stealing everything because it's allowed
Thanks, It is in a good location the bars I installed are more for the roving bandits that come in from out of the area. I have full security and night time active car surveillance. In California you can carry in your business and home. So they will have a surprise if they try it during business hours. If they try it at night then insurance kicks in. Yes it all sucks but won’t detour me.
😀
Max… did you go to th Namm show ??
Yes!
@@GuitarMAXMusic explain further !! Hahaha.... no videos ?? No interviews ?? That would’ve been killer !! Here loyal follower
Nah, there's so much NAMM coverage, I didn't shoot anything. But I am appearing in some other UA-camr's videos! I mostly used the show to do meetings, meet new companies, take pictures with people, etc.
.....,,,,,,,,, REMEMBER ----- YOU BUILD THEM,THEY WILL COME.😮
T-shirt in the middle of winter?
It's a California winter!
@@GuitarMAXMusic
Well, it's far far away from Poland 🙂
Fortunately, we don't have a snow at the moment and the temperature is almost acceptable 🙂
Brrrrrr!

Glenn Danzig on the run
i bought a bootlegger guitar at one time.
Smoking cigars around guitars is probably not the best idea these days.
The cigar lounge is outside
Good luck, defending your store against robbers without firearms
That is a myth about California. We are allowed to carry in our home or business. I have a well stocked store of guitars and my special friend. My history is, martial art instructor, boxer, off road race car driver. So a few non players who want to steal from me they will be surprised. At night I have armed surveillance that patrols many shops in my area.
@@BootLeggerGuitar OK that’s good to hear buddy, take care of yourself and your property. God bless.
No thats a cool concept. Ive woke up with strange women, but never a new guitar
HOW ABOUT YOU PLAY SOME ANDY TIMMONS STYLE PLAYING WHEN YOU SAMPLE THESE GUITARS COME ON MAN..ANYONE CAN PLAY LIKE VINNIE VINCENT ❤
How NOT to get Esophageal Cancer
Wiskey shots and Cigars , a direct path
What is cool about cigars that cause cancer?
Agreed
Iam not forcing cigars on anyone. What’s cool is freedom of choice. The cigar lounge is outside so it doesn’t effect anyone or the gear. I enjoy a fine cigar about twice a week, at 68 years young I have earned the joy of a fine outdoor smoke. You come to my store you can do what you want to do, demo gear, listen to amazing pro jazz and blues guys that hang out from L. A. , enjoy a taste of whiskey and if you are so inclined smoke a cigar out back. I Just Love America and Freedom it gives us.
All the guys died from them, who smoked, and some messed their organs from alcohol, of course it's the freedom of choice, but I don't see it being that valuable to 12 year old subscribers on this channel, even me as an adult. What I'd say is maybe switch to Cannabis, it's much more enjoyable while healthy(One should know the differences between strains to enjoy fully). Anyway I already unsubscribed from this channel after this promotion these kind of things. Cheers.@@BootLeggerGuitar
@@mylogify Thank You,, we do not need to promote.alcohol or tobacco to 12 year olds. Completely agree. The whiskey and cigar offering is more about being anti liberal California meaning the more rights taken from me the more I will be an agitator. The whiskey is one very small taste as a way to perhaps wish we were back in the 70’s. I grew up in California racing cars, going to the track and smelling the aroma of cigars and pipes. I loved it. Now in California they are making a cigar or pipe illegal. The Lounge is really more of a refuge against modern Calif then it is about drinking and smoking. No one gets drunk or abuses the offer. Mostly it is a hangout for the local pro musicians, while thankfully I am selling and shipping. Max also is not promoting drinking or smoking he is a health nut that sometimes I kid him about.
Oh no! A smoking environment! All the gear will stink of tobacco! 😜🫵🏼
Cigar lounge is outside, inside I have 2 commercial air purifiers. When playing gigs however the more smoke and whiskey stains on my Blues 30 the better. My band has a every Wednesday night VFW charity gig, all invited. That’s where the smoke comes from.
@@BootLeggerGuitar I was riffing on all the Craigslist ads that say such and such gear comes from a smoke-free studio. I bought a 7 Series Overdrive from Lumpy’s Tone Shop and it reeked of cigs when it arrived. I thought that was funny. He smokes while soldering.
@@claesvanoldenphatt9972 nothing from Bootlegger is shipped with any smoke or liquor orders, the shop is extremely clean and smoke free.
Cancer has left the chat.
Whiskey and cigars ain’t good or cool man
Why?
Ask that to people dying from it. Guitars don't have anything to do with your productions. @@BootLeggerGuitar
Nothing Cool about California
Not true, dont mix our state government up with the people of California. Iam a proud Red Neck Born in California rocker. Motorcycle, off road racing, surfing, skying, bikinis, the Doors. And a cool dude Maxxx lives a few miles from me
Unsubscribed.
Sad that they are charging- $700 for a guitar with a “Floyd” licensed…not even a real Floyd- Harley Benton is still a better choice
The Royal designed by Steve Stine has a Floyd Rose double locking tremolo. The Floyd Rose design license has expired, the name Floyd Rose is still patented. The reason the Royal sells at $799 no middle men. My factory is in S Korea. When you buy a HB you are buying a China built guitar supporting the communist China government. The people in China are wonderful the government is not… S Korea government is our ally and trade partner. Just saying..
Lets have a guitar maxxx meetup at this location!
Thank you Max and thank you guys and gals for the cool comments. To answer a few: we do not smoke in the store, we have a small outside patio. However we do taste some good whiskey in side the store. Yes Steve Stine was involved with our Royal Design. Lastly. Please don’t compare Bootlegger to Harley Benton. Not saying you can’t like a knock off China company, just save the comparisons. We are proud to be a USA company with our builder Mr Ken Kim Muse Inc. Seoul Korea. China is our advisories and S Korea is our friend and ally. So when you buy a HB you are funding a Communist government (and Covid). when you buy a Bootlegger you are buying USA and our friends in S. Korea. Yes HB business is in Germany but the guitars are built in China. If you want to start another HB come with me next year to NAMM. You can meet all the guitar China companies. They sell in large quantities at prices in the $20 to $50 range. Buy a few hundred and ship them to the U.S. you will then pay a extremely high tariff to get them here. Next fix all of them so they represent something like a working guitar. In my town i have friends with a Guitar Rock Studio. They buy China cheep guitars for young students and they end up trashing about 1/3 of them.
