We are completely blown away with how much you all enjoyed this video!
If you would like to see the guitars Lee forgot then make sure to tune into Pt.2 of The Captain's Guitar Collection Here:
th-cam.com/video/hrH7EZh3dBA/w-d-xo.html
👏👏👏👏You're the real definition of a Good Man, Sir. Nice person, working and honest man, humble, and with a great Family sense ! Cheers from Lisbon, Captain ! 😊👍
I think that sticker was the shoe brand Human. Big in the 90s
I totally forgot to include a few other guitars!! A couple are at home & a couple were just forgotten!! So maybe I need a part 2 that includes...
1. Gibson 335
2. Reverend Double Agent
3. Gretsch 5120
4. Gray Guitars Emperor
5. Fender 70s Strat
I think that’s it!! 😂😂😂
PLEASE I wanna see that Reverend.
How about the one you got in the video where you and Rob found you first guitars, and you got Rob his yellow Yamaha?
You play great on the 335!
a part 2 video would be pretty cool. With the pandemic going on, maybe the other guys at Andertons could do the same kind of video ?
Yup...part 2 needed...
Enjoyed the video! Would be good to see one with danish Pete showing his collection
Sure we can get Danish Pete to shoot a collection of his guitars... 😉
@@hhpp6911 I doubt that'd be a problem. They probably have more trouble getting him to shoot videos clothed. XD
Everyone from Andertons should do that ! Love it
Why to see all Fenders again.
Juujuu Bees He does have a Gold Top and a 335 too!
Woop woop!! Miss you dude, see you soon :-)
Can't wait to have you back Rob! 🤘
🙄
"See you soon"
Reality - doesn't see him soon.
Are you going to bring some of your "online power" back with you
I just wanted to sit and appreciate how far the capt. has come as a player. He has become such and incredible player and is a prime example of if you want to get better all you gotta do is put in the hours!! A true inspiration and might I add sounds so so so so good. I miss the captain lessons that were on here and i wish there were more! Such a cool video
Ya that intro was boss
Right. Captain got good!
Jonh22778 He’s been playing for over 30 years so he should be good!
I think his lessons with Justin really helped him
John, do you mean his video lessons have been removed, or does he not do any new lessons?
The captain is the “Dave Grohl “of music retail. What a thoroughly nice chap, genuine and sincere unlike some of the other guitar store owners who come across as a bit cork sniffy and pompous. Keep up the good work sir. Oh and buy a Gretsch Penguin. That’s your next guitar.
He's even wearing a Foo Fighters t-shirt 😂
@@chow_3699 cork sniffy? Haha never heard that saying before. Definitely stealing it.
#CorkSniffy LOL Definitely stealing that! :)
He definitely is. I have been shopping at Andertons a few times when I was in England, and I had the pleasure to talk to Lee himself in the store once. He has that very special talent of making you feel comfortable immediately without felling like you're being sold to.
We clearly need part. 2, it's just a matter of respect for the missing guitars
Yes, I know this sounds extremely corny so this will be a short comment.
The main reason I started playing guitar a few years ago as a teen is because of the lovely content y'all put out... It genuinely makes so happy to see the cap evolve as an incredible guitar player...
that is all :)
Yeah, his development as a player is truly remarkable. Inspiring to say the least.
It was because of their videos that it occurred to me that playing in a band isn't so impossible after watching some of their videos in 2015. I've released an album with my band in December 2019 and I'm now a full blown guitar addict. You're not alone XD
Zvonimir Karanusic what’s your band’s name?
I know a way you could have
made it even shorter. The formatting is the corniest thing about the comment
Blue man sticker is possibly from a clothing company called 'Two Legs'.
Deffo
Or, maybe a restroom sticker. ? Hey Captain, please choose different licks. The repetition is boring. You most definitely have become a very very good player and I commend you for that. A true blues player. Thanks and continue doing what you do.
www.twolegs.com
Holy shit! I can't believe we finally know where it came from!
Tim Russell Guitar Just let the man play. If you think it’s boring, don’t watch it😂
The little blue man sticker is the logo of a clothing brand called Two Legs. And funnily enough they have it the same way up that you do
The Diving Man is the actual name of the logo, hence the orientation, the company originators took inspiration from the surf scene.
If I was the Captain, I'd regard Andertons as my guitar collection...probably why I'm not a businessman!
I know this is an ancient comment now,
But a thought on this - The guitars, amps and other equipment in there are more than likely largely gifts or write offs as a mix of r&d or business purchases for marketing purposes. As far as I am aware. Unless andertons liquidated, lee could take home any of that equipment and use it with the caveats that it remains legally the companies’ property and in the case of liquidation would have to be returned to the company.
The stuff we are seeing here is his personal collection - non business related assets.
If I were running a store like Andertons i don’t think I would maintain a large personal collection either - what is the point when you can borrow business marketing materials to play with? Waste of money.
The Captain is a legend man!!
He sure is! 🤘
Lee im begging you try and get Brian May on " The Captain" Meets. PLEEEEEASE
I second this, would love to see Brian on the show.
Amen to that!
An hour of laboured earnest seriosity....and badgers.
The Captain is my guitar hero
That's why he is The Captain! 😉
Craig Miller set your sights a bit higher.
@@donkeevney troll a bit better
@@donkeevney Im happy with my choice.
This was sick! Would love to see Pete's collection too
lmagine yea -we need to see what Pete’s got
What about Bea's collection too?
lmagine he looks really well to me. Hardly sick looking.
MAKE THE REST OF THE TEAM DO THESE!
The sticker on the first strat is from a fashion brand called two legs👍
THE ORIGINAL CAPTAIN STRAT IS BACK!!!! I low key want to build a replica 😂
We would love to see a replica build... 🤘
Matt L hardly low key, telling the internet.
@@ryanboshell6124 you tell him!
Robin Foote yeah!
love that tele!
That les Paul is right up my street. 58 for the win.
Watching from Japan! Always been a huge fan of your playing Cap, your blues chops and vibrato are killer, Clapton would be proud!
"It's got 9 knobs, 4 switches and a dozen ins and outs...what shall we call it?"
The hokey cokey
The "Momma's Evening In"
An "orgy?"
Totally simple.
That Tele sounds and looks incredible! We need to see it on the show (much) more often.
The thinline Tele will sure be making more of an appearance on the show very soon... 😉
You know you need a Telecaster Captain.. Don't think about it, just do it!!! We wanna see it too
You should offer a "Lee relic service", which takes brand new guitars and REALLY wears them, but only where THE LEECK is played, everything else stays pristine
I've always thought it would be fantastic to get locked up in a pub for a weekend. But now I'm all growed up. So I wanna be locked up in Anderton's instead. Or Crimson Guitars.
I was also thinking how weird it must be for Lee to sit there taking to himself, but then realized that's what I've been doing for the last 3 weeks.
glenn whitlock imagine being locked up at Chicago Music Exchange
He's not on his own! They're all there including Danish Pete and Rabea..all stifling their giggles behind the camera.
I think overall its nice to have 7 guitars to get a full range if tones
1. Steel string acoustic
2. Nylon string acoustic
3. A Tele with two single coils and a traditional string-through-body bridge (your thin line does the job)
4. A Strat with three single coils & a tremolo (you got a couple of those already)
5. A solid body single cut, with two humbuckers, - you got the Les Paul so thats covered
6. A hollow or semi-hollow Gretsch with a Bigsby and filtertrons - THAT'S what you need!
7. A specialty guitar to suit the genre you’re in to....for me I’d take a tricone resonator guitar for slide.
You're my favourite person on the internet! Cheers Captain, thanx for everything all these years!
We done for being such a natural presenter when working solo thoroughly watchable as ever!
Why do I feel like the captain walks around his house playing Clapton licks 🤣🤘🏻
I was waiting for this video. Awesome!!! Never clicked so fast.
Glad you enjoyed the video! 🤘
Lee I’m amazed at your willpower to not buy every guitar in your store! I do not think I would be able to resist the temptation! Awesome collection!
Just received my Andertons order. Many thanks for still working and keeping us supplied during this difficult time. Thank you. You’re a great bunch! 💜
12:30am in AUS and watching the captain shred!! Love seeing the personal videos, feeling like we’re getting to know you as a bloke. Custom Shop run of original CAP10’s please!!
I actually prefer Caps playing to Chaps. #QuarantineSecrets🤫
THIS /\
quietly swept under the carpet. don't really miss him, tbh.
@@duncan-rmi how come he doesn't do stuff with Anderton's anymore?
PACen-Stein controversy, search up dovydas rob chapman and it’ll say some stuff, he’s come out with an apology and it shouldn’t really affect business
@@Jack-bz6nj that sounds familiar actually. Thanks dude 👍
22:52 That is the most British sound I've heard
Thanks cap. For quarentine reason I've seen al the videos twice, so every content y highly appreciated. Is like going 30 years back and have seen all the Tom and Jerry cartoons.
Man that Les Paul.... 😍😍
To have a guitar like the anniversary Strat and leave it unplayed in a cupboard is a far greater crime than taking the lacquer off and playing it. I’ve taken all the lacquer of my 2006 USA bog standard tele and it plays so much more nicely. I also stripped the poly finish off the body and did a natural refinish which has made it so much more resonant. I’ve destroyed any resale value but have a guitar that is wonderful to play. Well done you I say.
In played violin growing up and now any guitar with a heavy lacquer on the neck just feels wrong.
The Captain meets the Captain; fantastic. I think you sounded best and felt the most in touch with the PRS
The Captain doesn't have to have a "partner"... he can do it all by himself... that was a fantastic video! (The Captain" can play...)
31:22 is why we're all here
Ive heard you play your riff so meny times i kind of miss it when you dont play it 😕 please dont let them get to you and start playing your riff again...
Jeff Adams 31.22 he plays it
@@charlesmasterson2131 I thought when he said he hadn't played it once he meant the guitar not the riff lol
@@charlesmasterson2131 yeah i seen that... It was just a mention of it because he doesn't play it as much as he use too... I kind of used it as a base line for what the guitar sounds like lol
I love how lee spends like 10 minutes on the first guitar alone, this video feels so raw and I love it
There is something very gritty, and throaty yet refined about Les Paul's that I love.
Dont act like I didn't see you become momentarily confused by the reverse headstock on the chapman
You need a Jazzmaster! Every guitarist needs one after all!
I'm not big on PRS but that one you got there is easily, to my ears, the nicest sounding PRS that I have ever heard. Even in the mix of GREAT, GRAND guitars that you own and are showing here it sounds just phenomenal. Very nice piece, that...
Wow! Tone for days, Captain! Bravo
19:32 Forgets that it's a Chapman headstock.
"Simplifier." lol. It's got 13 cables hanging out of it and 45 knobs and switches!
So true, besides just having enough gear to plug into it is beyond my means!
That Thinline Telecaster is absolutely magnificent. I've always wanted one just like that!
That 2014 58 lp reissue was awesome!! Got my black beauty 57 THistoric reissue two years after in 2016 and what a privilege it is to own even one of thoses beasts....
Wow not made it here this early before even though im only down the road and your my local guitar shop!
You're*
Do you think he likes sunburst strats?
I don't know. I can't really tell.
Funnily enough, in the "Shred vs. Blues" guitar challenge video he explains that he wanted a black Classic Vibe strat, but the only one available was sunburst
No idea what you should buy next, Captain, but the PRS is an easy winner for me. Looks gorgeous, plays nicely, and sounds fantastic. Could you ask Paul to gift one to me please?
That Cap10 is wicked
The Captain is always saying he needs to buy himself a Tele... but, he has one? Hmm...
Ideal number of guitars? Just one more :D
But his is a Chapman and it ways a tonne and sounds very different to a fender
@@gavincarr911 what?
Sorry, got my people muddled up, I got chappers and the captain the wrong way round 😂😂😂
He probably wants a regular one. The one he has is a thinline, semi-hollow body.
It’s only a man who owns a guitar store that can claim he owns “enough guitars”.
Really nice to spend some time with Lee. It feels like time with an old friend. Thanks Captain.
"As long as I have something here to plug into, I'm a happy man." Exactly! Be ruthless and lose a couple of stray sunburst Strats. Not Grandpa's! and don't beat that one up please, play the paint off of it. Some of that
"Twang Shui" would be nice for you. Your LP is amazing and has it's own squonk only to be proudly displayed next to Pete's or any other, besides that PRS Flame Job. That looks and sounds amazing. You are correct-Some guitars don't need pedals or anything besides good hands, ears, and a good amp. Thank you for doing this with us.

The Captain's collection is popular... 😉
1. used Squier
I think that’s it!! 😂😂😂
the sound of that Squier with PHAT strings, oh lord, absolutely in love
Ooooh. The Les Paul into the Dane is just the Dog's bo-llox! Tastiness of the toanz is witnessed by the riff-age!
When is the video of Pete’s collection coming?
I'm disappointed The Captain didn't smash out the Daisy Rock.
Thanks Captain Lee! These videos are like healthy juice for my mind during our confinement!!! They always are but even more so now!!! Stay safe and healthy my TH-cam mates!
That Chapman Strat-style is absolutely cool!
Cappers I'm a big fan of yours, and as a fan I have a few constructive criticisms that I BEG you cllick expand to hear bro.
You are a great guitar player, with even greater finger tone... But like a sign you wear on your forehead, I can always see that your extremely tense, nervous and tunnel visioned into your fretboard. In my humble nobody/fellow quarantine-er opinion. Your wayyy to concerened about screwing up for 100k people to see. ...you've got the finger tone and scales burnt into your subconscious so there's no need to focus on it at all.
You need to sit down, put on a 20 minute backing track, and tilt your head back, and just let your fingers move in different fret/string Combinations. And when you make a mistake, don't loose the backing groove and stop playing, simply make note of it and continue on.. and incorporate facial movements and body movements till it feels like certain tones have a natural gesture, like dancing almost. Im typing all this with a 99.9% chance you dont even read it... That's how bad I want to hear your natural "Lee" tones full potential
TLDR: Relax, close your eyes and imagine an object sat in the room and let you creativity do the playing.. and MOST IMPORTANTLY... DONT EVER WORRY ABOUT MESSING UP to satisfy the listener, satisfy your inner creativity. Because mistakes are 80% of the learning process
GODSPEED CAPPERS, CHEERS
If you agree plz upvote so chappers might see. Ik you the audience want the same thing I want. ...CAPPERS unleashed
Lee: "Help me - where is the blue man from?"
Me: "Easy - The blue man group" :-P
Or is it a smurf😁
It's from Twolegs clothing.
Nice to hear a mention for Martyn Booth. I own a Martyn Booth Classic and have been a customer of Martyn's for over 30 years.
Thanks Capt. I've watched, and enjoyed you, and your crew for years. My first comment. In that time I found you, and I have similar taste in guitar style. My name is Lavender. Coming to you from Maryland USA.
Thanks for always being honest about gear. Keep up the great work.
You bought the same guitar four times.
That Yuri Looks and sounds terrible! You really messed it up. Get rid of it. I'll give you 1/3 of what it's worth. Helping you out.
You're wrong! it looks and sounds wonderful! You really messed up dissing it, he should keep it!
Captain Lee, I gotta say man, this was such a wonderful video for me to watch for a few reasons that I want to share with you. First, in the six or so years I've watched your videos, it absolutely blows me away how much you have progressed as a guitarist, and it has been a pleasure watching and listening to you grow, because so many of the riffs and jams that I used to improve as a guitarist myself, I got from your channel. Watching this and with so many of them remembering the guitar and videos I've seen you play them in, it was really a treat! Second, I always credit you and Rob with helping me to learn about guitars and gear and it has helped me in my career in music sales. Finally, speaking of Rob, I truly hope at some point you guys can start doing videos together again. Anyway, I hope you and your family and everyone over at Anderton's are keeping in good health and hanging in there during these difficult times. Thank you for all that you do, and best wishes from the US!
The Modded Squier has been *that* long?! Geesh.
Awesome vid, Captain, thanks!
I´m a strat guy myself but the burst in that les paul makes me want to stare at it all day! Also sounds great
More Captain solo vids! So comfortable to watch
Damn Cap, been a while since I’ve checked in, but wow! You’re playing has come so far!! You look so comfortable and relaxed with it!
That customshop les Paul sounds like all my hopes and dreams Of the last 30 years in a guitar
Captain, this is the best video in while. Thanks for sharing!
thank you. I ow have something to watch this weekend for breakfast and chill.
I play drums and keyboard, not guitar, yet I’ve started watching these guitar videos regularly, they’re so good I;m actually going to start taking guitar lessons!
Holy moly! It just struck me how the Captain looks so much more comfortable playing in the vids and rightfully so. It sounds so much more natural and just better. (Miss the Lick tho😁). Keep it up, love the content 💕🤘
Wow, the Captain has absolutely BANGIN tone. Espescially with the first one and his Les Paul
Not taking anything away from Rob Chapman's playing ability, but it's a lot more satisfying watching Lee playing, rather than just pure shredding and scales.
Comes across as such a nice cool guy. Really enjoyed this video and yes, we need part 2 !
That opening jam was Legit!! Captain Great Britain has become a helluva player lately!!
Hey Cap’n, thank you for going into the studio and putting out some content to us. You can’t imagine how much we appreciate you giving us something new that’s not the news. You’re playing is great these days, BTW! Anyway, I can imagine the pressure you’re under as a business owner, and it means a lot that you keep this going, even when you’re not showcasing a product. Really, thank you. Let’s hope we all get back to normal soon. 👍
You gents have inspired me to buy my first guitar and learn to play. I’m 53 years old and was in a rock band in my youth as a drummer. I love your videos. I need to be able to get out this darn COVID Stay at Home to “test drive” some guitars but have some in mind. I’m leaning towards a Fender Telecaster Special Edition unless I can find a Chapman ML-3 Pro.
Stay positive my friends!!
Yes please part 2 for sure. Also Peeeeeeeeettttteeeeee let's see/hear your guitars too!!!!
Thank you Lee, that was great, I remember you buying that Gibson Les Paul 58 with Rob he was so excited
Thanks Lee😊,I thoroughly enjoyed this video.I have 11 myself,some were gifts and they all have a story.I couldn't part with any of them.And yes,you have progressively become a tasteful and improved player over the years. Having Pete on your left hasn't hurt either. Keep the videos coming,I really enjoy them. I look forward to this quartine being over and the gang being back together.Much love and respect Captain 😊
It makes me really happy to see you guys keeping up with your channel during these bizzare times, keeps me motivated.
Your playing is so much better these days keep it up
The Captain with both hands on the fretboard. I love it!!!
Very nice! Thanks for showing us, Lee. That Thinline Tele is my favourite!
Captain, nice playing on the Gibson R8. Sounded huge! Love the 594 too.
Great deep dive! I like the mystery of the blue man sticker. I think the only thing we were missing was contemporary photos of each guitar in action when you first got them. Break out those polaroids!
Thanks for keeping the videos coming. Keeping me sane during this time.
