1957Stratman

These are awesome guitars, and you're right they are most definitely the perfect choice for someone who wants a 335, but can't afford the $3000.00 plus price tag. I have a 2005 Korean model in Natural, and I wouldn't trade it for a memphis 335, even if you gave me the choice of color. Now I woul...

Are these guitars acoustic/electric?

That was really cool! I've never seen anybody play a guitar like that before, very impressive.

Did you record your own backing track, or did you download it from somewhere? If you downloaded it, could you point me in the right direction, please? Sounds great, I have listened to you jam in the past on an Epiphone Sheraton II, and loved the sounds you were getting from that, now I gotta go b...

Hey Jon, How would 'you' compare this guitar with the Ibanez AS-83, AS-93 or AS-103? I have both the Sheraton II, and an AS-83; The Sheraton is stock, but the AS-83 has had a pickup change to Seymour Duncan Jazz neck Pup, and a Seymour Duncan JB in the bridge. It's a rockin guitar, but for some ...

Your Sheraton II really does sound very nice with the addition of the 57 Classics. I own a 2005 natural, and when I bought it I had originally thought of swapping out the pickups for the 57's as well, but after playing it for a while, I changed my mind, because the stock pickups sounded so good I...

@jereuter01, I totally agree. Gary wasn't trying to "One-up" Albert at all, he merely took the vibe he was feeling through Alberts leading of the song, and poured all of his passion and feeling into his solo. My God that moved me! I had to rewind back to 4:40 to repeat that smokin' solo several t...

I don't have a Taylor, but would love to have one. They're kinda pricey, but that's not really the reason; it's just that I'm more into electric guitars at this point, and my G.A.S. has me buying that sort of equipment right now. But this guitar is sweet, and I'd be honored to win it, who knows, ...

Wow!! I just love your Blues Fernando, so sweet and soulfull. I was wondering if you ever played a Strat, it is one of my favorite sounds on this planet. I have 3 strats, 2 are 1996 Fender MIA Lonestar Strats, and they are usually my go-to guitar, especially my Teal green Strat. It has the exact ...

Fernando, that was sweet! That is one of my all time top ten favorite love songs, and you play it so sweet and soulfull, I had to listen to it again. I would love to hear you re-do this cover using your Sheraton II, your Gibson Les Paul, and your Epi Gold top Les Paul also. Where is your Tagima ...

Hi Fernando. I was wondering, did you have to do any modifying (drilling?) to your guitar in order to mount the Gibson 335 pickguard? Sweet sounds Bro. Christopher

Fernando, you make that look so effortless. I love listening to you play, do you have any MP3's I could download, or maybe a CD to buy?? Seriously, Great Job Bro! I wish I could come over and play along with you, but Brazil is such a long bus ride from New York...

Wow, that was so sweet! Let that be a lesson to all you young Blues Cats out there that stumble over this tasty bit of playing, The Blues is about FEELING, not speed playing. I wanted to ask you, what year is your Sheraton II? The reason I ask is because the Sunburst on your guitar is a lot darke...

You really do play beautifully. Can I ask you where your amp EQ's are set, as well as the tone knobs on the Beautiful Sheraton II? I gotta get me one of those guitars! I have an Epi LP Standard +, and I was thinking about swapping the Pup's out for the 57 classics, but I think I'll wait and put t...

That was very,very nice. Very soulfull, really spoke to my heart. You should put words to it, I think it would make a great song. I have a semi-hollow Telecaster that I love for blues, but I have always wanted a 335 style guitar, and I truly believe that the Sherarton II is the nicest looking of ...

They're just commercials!!

kostakos1331, go to the guitar shop, and play both guitars. See which one feels just right to you, and also which one sounds just right to you. If you're not a great guitar player and feel a little embarassed at your ability, remember we ALL started at the beginning, and don't be so embarassed t...

Both of these guitars (and I do like both Fender and Gibson, both for quality and versatility, SuperBluesman66), the VG Strat and the Robot Les Paul, are gimmics, and won't be around long. All you really need is a six string electric guitar of your choice, and an amplifier (preferrably a tube amp...

Yes, The M means it was made in Mexico; the Z means it was made in 2000 or later; And the 7 qualifies it as a 2007. If your serial # began MN7 That would mean it is a Mexican made guitar, manufactured in 1997.

Listen kids, do yourselves a favor; go to the guitar store with your Strat. Talk to the guitar Tech about what strings you should be using, and by that I mean string size, not manufacturer. There are many manufacturers of guitar strings, just pick one. I myself like Ernie Ball Slinky strings, but...

I agree. I have several Strats and Tele's, both american and Mexican, and I second the motion, that after changing the pickups on my MIM HSS Strat, it now sounds as good as it looks, and I think the mexican looks just as good as your standard American made Strat. A custom shop Strat is another s...

That was a pretty bad video! I don't mean 'Pretty bad' as in bad to the bone, I mean it sucked!! The picture quality and the sound quality was like... Hey, did you up-load that off your video phone?? Next time, here's a little advice; don't bother!

I have to honestly say that the acoustic sounds you were getting were not bad, but I was not all that impressed with your "Hammond B-3 Organ" simulation, and mixing the acvoustic and the electric signals together, well, not too good. I have heard better HB-3 simulations from Electro-Harmonix peda...

The guitar and amp combination you choose to create your genre of music with is your own personal choice, and any guitar/amp combination can make any type of music. Case in point: heavy rocker Ted Nugent. One of his favorite guitars down over the years has been the Gibson Byrdland; a guitar that ...

I disagree with you Nigel, I like the 2005 better. Not even taking into consideration the fact that it's prettier, those 57 classics have more articulation and definition than the 490's or whatever you said they were on the older guitar, But actually neither one of them had the sweet bell tones ...

I would like to see you guys do a comparison demo between the MIA Fender standard strat, and the MIM Fender standard strat; wouldn't hurt to compare the standard Tele's either, MIA, and MIM. I mean I'm 52, and I have all 4, and I like all 4, but I would be willing to bet that there are some young...

Jack, your technical and musical abillities simply astound me. I'm 52, and I simply love your music and your videos; You sir are amazingly brilliant.

Tasty Blues Bro... BTW You said (9months ago) that "First it's a LesPaul and second it is a cheap one so..." I just wanted to say that the Les Paul Studio Faded worn Brown or Cherry may be at the bottom of the price list for Studio Les Pauls, but the thing I like about the guitar is the sound tha...

Lucciano, you are wonderful. But you never smile, aren't you having fun?? Playing music always makes me happy, and I just have to sing, laugh and smile even when playing the blues! Have fun with your music Lucci, it truely is beautiful.
