that was the coolest version of Eleanor Rigby ever...nice work Lemmo
You mean what could be heard under that annoying "EEEHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHRHHHRHHHRHHR" hum 😂
Not really.
@@vintagepipesnightmares bruh why you hating lol,, get back to reviewing pipes clown
This is a crazy crossover of two of my favorite TH-cam channels
I know because Norman's rare is excellent
Wow this makes so much sense now. Been a long time fan of Michael Lemmo. Have always loved all the Norms videos of him playing. He has such a unique style and personality to his playing, the whole VanHalen vibe in his style makes total sense!. Thank you for this and recognizing a guy I am a real fan of! 🎸🎸🎸
Glad to see a great talent like Lemmo getting acknowledged…about time
Lemmo and Jen have become a staple in my daily YT viewing. He's just a wealth of knowledge and a heck of a great player. Cool EVH story. I have a similar story with Sammy out here in Chicago, but I was an adult not a kid. Sammy is one of the major class acts in the business.. Good job Chris, thanks guys.
This dude is highly underrated. Love his playing style.
I understand his passion. As a young teen in 86,i was so passionate about jimi hendrix. I used to have dreams about him. I would cry wondering what he be like today. In my dreams I'd be hanging out with him jamming. Then after a while he'd check his watch. Say he has to go and then I'd wake up with tears in my eyes. I understand his love for Eddie
I was a year or two after you with my love for Jimi. I had dreams and obsessed and his music changed my life. Here I am 50 plus years old, and Jimi is STILL blowing my mind. But yes, Mr. Lemmo was so fortunate to get to spend a couple hours with his guitar hero.
Lets make a band
@beachcomber4141
"Drifting" is so monumentally beautiful, is there a more perfect sound/tone than what Jimi achieved on that track?,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Man, do we miss him!.
Peace.
@@keiranbradley3238 Yes sir. Drifting is one of my favorite Hendrix tracks. The backwards solos sound like they were placed in the song by God!!
@beachcomber4141
Absolutely!.
It's mindboggling how gifted Jimi is/was, those backwards solo's where woven together so perfectly because he literally knew how it would sound forwards and back!.
His use of controlled free-back in the last parts of the track is just untouchable!.
He was so humble with it too, what a beautiful soul.
Peace brother!.
Just busts Eleanor Rigby out of nowhere! Damn haha
Always love watching him play
Lemmo is on another level! His ear is rediculous. Love how he comes up with Lemmo versions of classic songs like he did here.
Thanks for spotlighting Lemmo! He has such a unique approach to the guitar. Could listen to him jam all day.
LEMMO! So glad to see him out on tour and getting the accolades that he deserves for his brilliant playing and creativity. Hoping Lemmo has even greater success in the future as he inspires the next generation of players!
I thought I had every guitar I needed, I thought I was done, no more guitars needed, every base covered…. Now I realized I need and want a Jazzmaster!!! outside of that I just love Lemmo playing - so talented, so good.
Michael Lemmo is such a talented musician and seems like such a nice guy. Great video, I love the Godzilla guitar. Obviously kind of a twist on Eddie Van Halen's Frankenstein. Great to hear the full story of him meeting Eddie. Can't wait to see Michael live sometime. Thanks for posting this wonderful video.
Rock on!
I am only aware of Mr. Lemmo through his Norm's guitar of the day and other videos from Norms Rare Guitars, but he has been playing some just SICK stuff lately. He is a fantastic guitar player!! I would say I went from thinking he had the coolest job in the world, to being a fan!
Can’t wait for the full episode. Love his unique playing style
Very cool Mike. Thanks for sharing that precious memory.
Lemmo is just so musical whatever he plays. Never boring.
Wow that PAF really does sound great. The guitar overall does sound great. Brilliant story on meeting Eddie.
I have been watching Mr Lemmo now for the last year on Norman's Rare Guitars website. He never fails to impress me and I have been playing close to 50 years (music keeps a person forever young at heart. I am a living example!). I am glad he made the statement regarding 11's (which I use as well) as being the standard (probably closer to 12's) when the Jazzmaster was designed. This is an important fact people don't think about. The 59 LP holy grails for instance sounded different in 59 because they probably came with .012 gauge flat wound strings out of the factory. The rockers like Jimmy Page would apply lighter gauge round wounds strings which by nature have a more trebly sound. I hear he used .008s at one time, yikes! This is not to mention ease of playing. Getting back to the star of the show, I never heard Mike use his effects before which was also impressive. He seems like a good soul, I am really glad he is seeing some substantial success as a result of his magnificent talent.
What a treat this is! Thank you PG!
This is so great !!!!!!!!! Thanks ,You guys !!!!!!
Our pleasure!
i could listen to this guy play all day
Such a great story about meeting Eddie....I'm very jealous
Glad to know this sweet Eddie story! Another side of Michael from Norm’s thanks. Cool dude great player!✌️❤️
Lemmo rocks!
That ER was awesome bro.
Lemmo rocks!!! Loved the EVH story too! 🤘🏻
He's such a beautiful player!
Lemo is great … Norm’s people !!
Oh please 🙄
That's an incredible EVH story
Saw a beaten up jazzmaster in the thumbnail and though that it was either Thurston or Lee's rig rundown
Awesome RRD Michael! It certainly tells the Lemmo story.👍
Such an interesting player and he’s become part of the fabric of Norm’s, which is a Mecca of guitar culture. Love GOTD
nice playing i wanna learn that.guitar is sick too.love all
Very cool playing ☝️😁
Im from holland pa i went to highschool with your friends.. i didnt know u were from there
You are 14. EVH is hanging out at your friend's house. You meet him. Then you get into the minivan. You mom yells "Goodbye, Eddy!" And then your brain explodes.
There’s just something so special about Fenders beaten to hell and back
Lemmo is the MAN too!
Please tell me there’s a full episode on him.
Coming up tomorrow!
@@premierguitar thank you! ❤
Love Lemmo, he’s got soul
If I ever did my own Rig Rundown I would literally bring a fkn Segway and that would be my entire rig
Woo! Godzilla ❤
I see Lemmo I like
sweet!
More Lemmo please.
Full Rundown drops tomorrow!
@@premierguitar Great news. Can't wait to see it!
Lemmo is one seriously cool cat 😎
The green guard definitely changes the tone.
It's always been great seeing his work with Norm's so to see a RR on Lemmo is equally as cool, I love this
Eddie dated my best friend's mom too
Hell yeh Lemmo
LEMMO and GREG!!! Are the SHIT!
Norm come get your boy…. “He’s playing his own guitar 🤷🏼♂️”
Now if Fender gets on it, perhaps we could buy a a Lemozilla Jazzmaster. What about it Fender?
He’s done stuff for them before, he introduced the cunife pickups when they came back.
OK. I missed it the first time. It looks like what I'm asking for is just beside his amp. Cool!
Lemmo is a great artist besides being a killer player. His imagination is incredible😊
*A meeting of the minds::: lol
Lemmo's taller than I thought.
What melody is that he's playing. It sounds so familiar, someone please help me figure it out.
Eleanor Rigby
I wonder how much Norm will extort from Lemmo over this video.
Without Norm no one would even know who Lemmo is.
Play Push Lemmo!
Twin Reverb ?
That’s one of the ugliest Jazzmaster I’ve ever seen…I love it
GODZILLA!!!!
A new guitar you have to change the bridge first thing because it's notoriously badly engineered. I can't understand how fender can get away with it.
Never ran into him again ? Lol
Lemmo will one day be for Fender what Mark is for Gibson 😂
It looks like a bar of soap and it’s a single coil pickup. Give it a rest, fellas. 🤦♂️
First ❤
jazzmaster pickups arent soapbars
I always thought both jm and p90 pickups could be referred to as soapbars just because of how they look… Lemmo of all people definitely knows that jazzmaster pickups are not p90s
Lemmo has a very noisey signal. 😐
I noticed it too. Probably playing very loud with the band anyway so no one cares.
Who cares? Clearly he’s playing a Jazzmaster which is going to cause noise. Durr.
It could be the venue or the lights, maybe both.
Horrible yes
He's standing right next to his amp, and there are stage lights going. That's just how it be.
Wasn't that guitar a gift from a viewer of Norm's channel? And then he wrecks it!
No, you are mistaken. The gift from the viewer was a fiesta red Jag. Godzilla is his own AVRI JM.
@@ultracure This is wonderful news! Thanks for the info 😶🌫
lol jazzmaster soapbar. those ain't P-90's, homie.
Technically not incorrect. Colloquially jazzmaster pickups are also referred to aa a variety of “soapbar” - it is an aesthetic category afterall; nonetheless he didn’t call them p90s, he called them jazzmaster soapbars and later in the vid referred to it again, correctly as a single coil. Both p90s and jazzmaster pups are wide range single coils, the jazzmaster pickup being even wider than a p90 giving it its characteristic full spectrum bass/treble eq curve
@@justinguitarcia The Squier JM pickups are basically P90's. The Fender JM's are not soapbars.
sick emma ruth rundle shirt. i love her so much.
