Ed was so underrated as a writer and a player. Ronnie knew it and not until he found Steve Gaines was Skynyrd complete after Ed left. I cried when i learned of Eds passing. He seemed like such a genuine and kind person too to go with that talent.
Thanks for checking out the video! TONS of cool guitars so stick around for the whole video. If you want to jump right to Ed King's Iconic Strat head to 6:59
I wonder if he ed wrote "I need you" with it as well. He had said it was the very next song they made after sweet home on his first day as the third guitarist. Great video Marty love your work!
I watched your interview with Ed King last night. What a great guy he was. I found it kinda funny that he thought that that guitar was a piece of crap, but it's now "priceless". 🙄
Eddie’s passing just shows the importance of Marty work capturing the essence of the original and then educating the rest of us around the globe, in lessons both on and off the instrument. Many thanks Marty from Oz
Marty, this was also a cool video. Neat to see Ed Kings original Strat, since I had just watched the video of you with Ed King at his home there in Nashville. When I go to visit with my son, I believe I'll swing in there & take a look. Thanks again Marty...
eye can sense u traveling back in time playing that last guitar.. eye can feel ur joy and happiness and peace holding that guitar eye can see it in ur smile and the way u look at the guitar.. ur a beautiful creature Marty. just got an amp to learn guitar and rock out! THANK YOU
Thanks Marty & Walter. Lots of candy behind you. I live in Gainesville FL. Home of Bo Diddley & Tom Petty and more. R.I.P. Brothers. We live by Bos cemetery. Big monument. I've had the privilege to party with bo's family. bo diddley plaza. Lots of concerts there. Loads of fun. Peace
Pirate Labs All of the instruments in this video are suitable for being in a museum, but they were made to be played and enjoyed so hopefully that what the future owners will do with them. I will say that museums like Songbirds in Chattanooga that actually let people play the instruments is a brilliant best of both worlds concept.
Ok, you've gone and done it. Yesterday, I watched the Ed King guitar video. Today, I watched this one. I guess I'm gonna binge every interview with guitar history type video that I can find here, on your channel At any rate, thanks for posting these. It's memories that take me back to the 60's and the Lettermen, Beach Boys, Beatles, and the list goes on. Ok, I'm off to search for more vids!
Great video Marty! That Gibson guitar that you both played at the end was freaking unbelieveable! Truly amazing instrument. I wish that you would have mentioned the prices of all of those guitars. Also, given his knowledge of the stories behind those instruments, Walter should write a book about all of those vintage guitars.......................... 👍👍🎸🎸👍👍
Sapele Steve Mr. Carter has written numerous books about vintage guitars and mandolins. I do agree that it would make an excellent book if wrote one specifically about the most significant instruments that have come through the store in the seven years they have been open. As someone who lives near Nashville a visits this store on a regular basis I say that they have had(and currently do have) a lot of interesting instruments in addition to the ones featured in this video. The same goes for amps too which is my gear obsession. On a side note, Mr. Carter “co-wrote” Gruhn’s Guide to Vintage Guitars.
how do guitarists remember every single song they have ever freaking learned and play it on the spot?!? i play another instrument and can kinda remember maybe two by heart!
Awesome Marty!! What an adventure that would be .. Loved the King Strat.. only heard him talking about in your previous vid... Ed showed you how to play that Sweet Home run that everyone gets wrong.. you still did.. but I absolutely think this is wonderment!! The first Ric... one of the first Gibby’s... 110%👍
I agree with you that Carter Vintage Guitars was a the greatest musical instrument store out there. Personally, I would give second place to Chicago Music Exchange, but only because of the extensive variety of new gear that they sell, and the fact that they cater to all skill levels(as does Carters) and all price levels(Carters doesn’t really much on the lower price level).
Could you give a tutorial on Jojis new song Run. It’s amazing and I know it’s not hard but learning the basics of the song and maybe the solo would be incredible
GandL Stratoplayer Headrick I love Carter Vintage Guitars and I have bought several things from them. Normally, even celebrity owned instruments are priced similar to what the same instrument would be worth without the celebrity ownership. There have been some exceptions like this one, and personally I think this one is overpriced. However, when you consider the fact that David Gilmour’s Black Strat(which was also from the 70s) just sold at auction for over $5 million this could be a bargain.
I second the other person’s opinion of Squier Strat(or Tele) especially if you can find a used Classic Vibe or Vintage Modified model in your price range. Your price range would get you a brand new Affinity Series Squier, but the next step up in the Squier brand is a significant improvement. That being said the Affinity Series is great for the price.
Can you teach me how to play"Time in a bottle" by Jim croche. It was my dad's favorite song and I would like to learn it to impress my friends. Hope you see this:)
I think the “Frying Pan” came first, but it was a lap steel. This was the first Spanish style played in the position we now consider normal for guitar. Of course, Gibson followed a few years later with the first pickups on their arch top guitars.

Which riff is this ?
I wonder if he ed wrote "I need you" with it as well. He had said it was the very next song they made after sweet home on his first day as the third guitarist. Great video Marty love your work!
Another top video Marty, so many great guitars, really digging Bo's guitar. Superb man.
Please tell me what the riff at the end is or make a tutorial.
Great guiternview
RIP Ed King. He’s another legend that’s gone but not forgotten.
Turn it up, Marty! More Skynyrd & CCR, please.
That first guitar is definitely legendary without a doubt!
Your playing at the end is so beautiful it makes me cry,
I watched your interview with Ed King last night. What a great guy he was. I found it kinda funny that he thought that that guitar was a piece of crap, but it's now "priceless". 🙄
I love how thorough this was. Thank you for showing and talking about all of these wonderful instruments with so much history!
Eddie’s passing just shows the importance of Marty work capturing the essence of the original and then educating the rest of us around the globe, in lessons both on and off the instrument. Many thanks Marty from Oz
Would love to see a lesson on don't fear the reaper by blue oyster cult
Darryl Wallace it needs more cowbells.😎🤣
He actually did a lesson long ago on another channel that was the video that taught me how to play that song
Maybe you should go to a channel that does B.O.C .
Bro every time something bad happens that song comes on and makes me feel worse. It never fails. I hate that song so much 😂
Marty, this was also a cool video. Neat to see Ed Kings original Strat, since I had just watched the video of you with Ed King at his home there in Nashville. When I go to visit with my son, I believe I'll swing in there & take a look. Thanks again Marty...
That's cool, did you know that solo came to him in his dream?
And speaking of that, Sweet Home Alabama solo lesson would be awesome
eye can sense u traveling back in time playing that last guitar.. eye can feel ur joy and happiness and peace holding that guitar eye can see it in ur smile and the way u look at the guitar.. ur a beautiful creature Marty. just got an amp to learn guitar and rock out! THANK YOU

😂that first guitar surprised me
That Ro-Pat-In sounded sweet!
Hey Marty, Thank you for giving us a guided tour through Carter's Vintage guitar shop. They definitely have some unique guitars and basses.
I’ve been to Carter’s and it’s an amazing place, when I went I got to play a ‘63 strat and it was AWESOME
RIP Ed King, a true legend
Dear Lord, that first guitar is like and over fed BC Rich!
Awesome video! Carters is probably my favorite guitar store. Cool
That guitar belongs in a museum.

I only came here for Ed King's Sweet Home Alabama guitar
A guitar with a built in CD player! 😆 Bonkers!
Marty, is that an old Tacoma above your right shoulder? You and Rhett Shull are killing it with these Carter's videos.
Ok, you've gone and done it. Yesterday, I watched the Ed King guitar video. Today, I watched this one. I guess I'm gonna binge every interview with guitar history type video that I can find here, on your channel

That first guitar looks like it belongs in the store in guitar hero 3
He didn't WRITE it on that guitar, he RECORDED it on that.
that old acoustic sounds so beautiful
Lucky boy! I’d kill to play that strat Ed used, that should definitely be in a museum. Thanks for your vids Marty, especially your interview with Ed!
Awesome!
Besides your awesome lessons this is my next favorite series of videos that you do. Please keep it up and look forward to the next video!
That strat has such a warm tone
Thank God for folks like Mr. Carter he is a custodian of history. What a great job!

You're not a guitarist unless you CAN do that😉🙌
That’s funny the other day I saw a Rhett Shull video and he got to play it too when he visited the store, you guys are some lucky people.
Sounds great
Awesome Marty!! What an adventure that would be .. Loved the King Strat.. only heard him talking about in your previous vid...

Great teacher,got the fever again... thanks bro
Wow. Walter's eyes are the most amazing blue I've ever see
Dude !!! Love how you just made the strings sing on Ed's guitar. Peace
Wow, Marty! Just, wow! This was awesome! Love the history lessons.
Marty’s having an eargasm
Skynyrd is the best
Pretty cool seeing Marty on the upright. 👊🏾
Big ED King 🤴💙🙌❤ RIP 🙏😢 will be seriously missed.
Beautiful guitars
Awwww Marty! That LS riff really gets me going!!! 😁😉😙
If you ever want to see the face of pure happiness, watch Marty play the outro. Sick video dude!!
Should had him come play it
Carter's and Gruhn's are by far my favorite stores in the world.
I agree with you that Carter Vintage Guitars was a the greatest musical instrument store out there.

Great vid as always!!!! I demand lots of mandolin bass vids. 🤟😎🤟
Love watching these videos again but in your interview with Ed he said that it was bridge and middle pick up spot!
I love the "Rickenbacker" one...
Alabama was on the second postion(Bridge and Middle)
awwww man what an amazing place maybe one day I'll get over there
It was on the bridge and middle pickup, Marty. Come on, you asked the man himself...
New guitar player. Love the video lesson.
That last piece was beautiful . What is it?
I'll have to go back and watch that video, but I thought Ed Kind said that he came up with the Sweet Home Alabama riff on an SG
My god! Thats incredible!!
Rip
7:00
Where is Allen Collins Explorer
Yea that would be an amazing guitar to see a video on
That last Gibson looks like a loaf of bread
tasty
On your own interview with Ed, he said he played that solo on the first and middle pups!.
no Ed said he played it on the back pickup treble pickup and middle! maybe you meant that
@@sugarlife485 I call the treble pup the first.
What’s the song at 9:46 ?
Holy shit
Marty shire kin play that geeeetar
If I am not mistaken, that guitar does not have the original pickups in it. Ed replaced them in the 90’s
Nice bro gracias por tus enseñansas
Please do a “is there anybody out there?” Tutorial
Marty can you please do some Arctic Monkeys lead lessons
Could you give a tutorial on Jojis new song Run. It’s amazing and I know it’s not hard but learning the basics of the song and maybe the solo would be incredible
they want 450,000yeah US dollars for Ed's Strat!!

I need this guitar😂😍
Rhett Shull played that!
i want one
Dammn Marty is flexing those guitars 😉
Thats not HOW YOU PLAY SWEET HOME!!!! cmonnnnnnnnnnnnnn
Any suggestions for my first electric guitar I want to learn how to play Nirvana type music. My budget is around 150 or 200

Your price range would get you a brand new Affinity Series Squier, but the next step up in the Squier brand is a significant improvement. That being said the Affinity Series is great for the price.
Thumbnail made me laugh, then I saw that ridiculous guitar you were playing at the start of the video and I was full on cracking up!
Can you teach me how to play"Time in a bottle" by Jim croche. It was my dad's favorite song and I would like to learn it to impress my friends. Hope you see this:)
Taylor Worrell he did a lesson on that already.
@@-h-1666 Oh I just found it mu bad g😂
@@-h-1666 wait no that the wrong one

Não entendo nada mas falou em Lynyrd skynyrd tô aqui 🇨🇨🤘
Cool
Amazing place. But depressing because as a lefty, they had only 6 lefty’s. Kind of like being a diabetic in a candy store.
You should cover Set Me Free by Avenged Sevenfold
I thought the "Frying Pan" Rickenbacher was the first electric guitar ? (They changed the spelling later on). Great stuff Marty , thanks ! 😎🎸
I think the “Frying Pan” came first, but it was a lap steel. This was the first Spanish style played in the position we now consider normal for guitar. Of course, Gibson followed a few years later with the first pickups on their arch top guitars.
So, Ed King showed you how to play it and you still did it the way you thought it went?
Would guarantee you Marty that if you played “yes roundabout” you would get tons of views
Indeed, but, Steve Howe is an awfully intimidating cover...................lol
Hi Marty how you doin i love your guitar lessons
I guess Marty saw Rhett Schull’s video and had to go try out Ed King’s old strat for himself😅
2013? ...Had Chambers-Guitars even closed yet?
Aye Aye carters is only 7 years old? I thought it had been around longer?
Strawberry alarm clock 🍓
Hey Marty! Top fan here 💯🔥
Duuude... youve got to do a Bo Diddley song dressed as Bo Jackson from his 1990 Score baseball card. Jockstrap and all. PG-13 rating, yo!!!
We should learn sum Ritchie Valens Mr Marty
