I like how nobody ever says anything about how he handles the instruments, but at this video everybody is all of a sudden whining about it. People are such sheep.
Hey Mark, I love Tele Tuesday's, gotta be the best day of the week ! also enjoy your playing. Just one suggestion for all us plank addicts out here more details ! y'know fretboard radius, neck shape, tuners, bridge saddles etc. Thanks
Tell him I want it back, I was in the process of moving and had my things stored in that barn, when I went back to get them, my guitar along with 1962 Princeton amp was gone. Tell him I'll pay him for the labor and parts ' also tell him I'd like to have the original parts back.
The second this video started the first thing that popped into my head was "please don't tell me you're gonna play that with the jacket on." Sure enough, he's playing it with the jacket on. It's nearly impossible not to have a cringe-worthy moment when watching any video related to this shop.
The comments on here are funny. We're talking about a #22 broadcaster here... even if he scratched it up a bit it wouldn't decrease its value... even gouged up this guitar would retain and gain in value. Above all, it's a rock&roll icon and is meant to be played.
Yes! Thank you..I have an old Les Paul. Never wipe it down(except the strings). The funk is in the gunk..EastNashvilleSessionMan's opinion. Just an opinion..
Are you stupid? It's one of the rarest guitars in the world and this douche tosses it around like it's a kid's toy. It's not the value that's important, but the instrument itself.
@@Ignore14 He's also not crippled in the hands. I'm pretty sure that tossing it a millimeter away from his palm isn't going to smash the guitar into pieces.
I'm shocked that this dude does not even realize the 50 Broadcaster has a blender control instead of a tone control. One of the best ever inventions by Leo Fender and the dude doesn't even know it:(
I’m not surprised though. I’m pretty sure that was only on the broadcaster, of which ~250 were built. It isn’t a very common thing, so I wouldn’t be shocked.
Not only that, they were 1968 models, the first with POLY (not NITRO) finishes!! Jimi used to play on older NITRO finished stratocasters, which are considered better, and worth considerably more money, yet he preferred the polyester finished ones - maybe because the finish was more durable, and felt "glassy" (neck)...?
In seated position for a quick 10 minute play would not mark it. It's when your standing and moving around a stage performing is where a guitar gets rash, so don't panic as he would have had no movement or pressure on the guitar. :)
He doesn't explain it right but this guitar has the "vintage wiring" where the 3-way switch chooses the bridge pickup (back position), the neck pickup (middle position), or the neck pickup through a large capacitor (front position). "Modern wiring" is how Teles are wired today: neck, bridge or both together.
Most likely, if you eased that switch into the first notch spot (no detente), you would get both PUPs on, out-of-phase ... And gee ... my wardrobe could work at Rare Norman's!
It's crazy to me how this layout barely changed 74 years later... Guitar players are weird. I would never take a blocky S-S tele with vintage bridge, but I know tons of people who would! My favorite evolved tele is the ESP "The Eclipse" Custom, the same Tele Izzy Stradlin used in the Sweet Child o' Mine music video.
Non-trussrod necks were only on the earliest-of-the-earliest guitars, and there were very, very few before Don Randall of Fender Sales insisted that Leo put in trussrods. This Broadcaster DOES have a trussrod as evidenced by the skunk-stripe down the back of the neck which can be easily seen when Mark is showing the back of the guitar.
blo p the Neck and bridge are both single coil pickups. But unlike later telecasters the wiring is different. In the back position is the bridge pickup. However, Broadcasters and Nocasters don’t have a tone control, the tone knob is actually a blend control. The tone knob at 0 is bridge only, and the knob at 10 blends both pickups. In the middle is neck pickup alone. In the front position is the neck pickup with a capacitor, providing a bassy tone, which many people consider useless but is good for jazz and blues. The volume knob works normally like a standard Telecaster.
2:59 "You don't get a lot out of that neck pickup" LOL!!! If you knew how to actually play guitar you'd get a lot out of that neck pickup. Get back on the neck pickup, roll off the tone just a tad, and play a vi-ii-V-I in Ebmaj. The result will be velvet and butter!
Yea, it proves that people are just like sheep. I read the comments at these videos all the time, and nobody says anything about zippers, rings, rough playing, etc. But at this particular video everybody is blabbing about it.
Holy fuck, I love this one, how expensive is it? I just saw a John 5 guitar collection video, he has a Broadcaster and he payed a shitload of money for his guitar.
Dreadflower True about the non-sequential part, although the Gilmour 0001 Strat is not black. It's Desert Sand-ish or possibly a faded one-off custom color with an anodized gold pickguard. Regarding Broadcaster 0022, however, although it almost certainly is not the the 22nd one made, Broadcasters are in such rarified air in general because so few were produced, plus they were (are) such historic instruments, too. Add a super-low serial number to all that and the whole package is just beyond cool.
These guitars are revered and coveted merely for their historical/antique value. If someone is saying that they have some kind of voodoo superior sound, then they are hitting the pipe a little too hard. My 2012 American Special leaves this tonal turd in the dust when it comes to sonic prowess. But that's not to say that it's not still a super badass and groovy guitar, which is also an irriplaceable piece of human history.
Maafa 1619 THe resonance of the wood has nothing to do with an amplified guitar. Also, the 60 year old pickup sounds like it does because the magnets have lost their strength. This can be duplicated by just using weak magnets in a modern wound pickup.
+Maafa 1619 It picks up on the taps because the pickups act as a microphone. To say that this would pick on the subtleties of the resonance of the wood is a different matter entirely.
Great sounding guitar! One thing no one ever seems to mention is that just like the old strats, on the teles w old school wiring if you just work the toggle between the bridge and middle position you can still get the 2 pickup combo tone. Everyone always gives u bridge, neck, and then complains about the lo pass filtered setting, but the dual pickup tone is still in there.
I recently learned that like most things, pickups age. The circuitry wears somehow, changing the sound over time. So when this guitar was new it probably didn't sound like this, and when today's guitars are 70 years old, they will sound different.
I love how when he takes this extremely rare guitar out of the case and basically juggles it in his hand like it was a plank of plywood.
Because that's basically what it is.
+Philippe Germain Yeah, haha. Uh, no it doesn't...
yeah he is a butcher
I like how nobody ever says anything about how he handles the instruments, but at this video everybody is all of a sudden whining about it. People are such sheep.
He went to work for Gibson, remember? :-)
Such a sophisticated instrument for its time. I'd be tweaking out of my mind just to play one of those rare beauties.
Just wow, what an incredible sound,absolutely stunning guitar
Love how they tuned it in open G and went straight to play some Black Crowes
That is just incredible. Nice review!
Hey Mark, I love Tele Tuesday's, gotta be the best day of the week ! also enjoy your playing. Just one suggestion for all us plank addicts out here
more details ! y'know fretboard radius, neck shape, tuners, bridge saddles etc. Thanks
Nice to hear it through an appropriate vintage tweed amp , sounds great
Awesome! Great Keef-esque playing as well!
Great vid, I'd love to see some more guitars from the back.
Yes I questioned that too. I was waiting for him to smack the headstock into the shelving.
A luthier I know brought one back to life that was found in a barn. I think he said it was #0051. Very cool!
Tell him I want it back, I was in the process of moving and had my things stored in that barn, when I went back to get them, my guitar along with 1962 Princeton amp was gone. Tell him I'll pay him for the labor and parts ' also tell him I'd like to have the original parts back.
Your presentations are the best.
Just wow!! The history of electric guitar...
Awesome guitar!
Toys `R`us for adults...
Manuel Arslanyan whars the firat song he played called?

One too many strings to play Keith.
Such a raw power sounding guitar..
Wow wow..
Pine body Telecaster is a real gem..
Really speaks and clear..
Best I can do with these zipper scratches on it is $100 cash

Very woody/heavy/dark sounding. Great guitar! I would pay A LOT more for this guitar if only if i were closer...
Leather jacket- goes right to his Village people gig so doesnt have time to change
That's beautiful.
I miss the black crows, damn, just remembered black crows with jimmy page, great fuckin band!!!

@darthjarjarbinks8953 anyone drowning in vintage teles would know about a blend .
If I ever win the lottery I will buy a guitar from Norman and it will be the best.
That’s not how I would’ve demoed this fine vintage and historic guitar.
beautiful Guitar
Smart move playing All Down the Line on this guitar. Good matchup, underrated. Best drink, fight, and fuck song.
I like that group of Rickenbackers on the floor..!
I love this guy. But maybe had a hangover this day?
I love this channel. Wish they'd post prices, though
JazzGtrDude Same...just so I can cringe.
If you have to ask, you can't afford it...and it might be a fake anyways...and new guitars are usually better too.
Pharmer David New doesn’t mean better. Some of my best guitars were used.
All the same old blues lick reverberating in the background... Makes me smile though.
This was the golden era of guitar of the day
Lol nah. Lemmo is 100x the player Mark is. People used to come just to see the guitars. Now they come just to hear Lemmo play.
Buy it and hang on to it, it would make a great 401K. Richie Sambora knows they only keep going up. Awesome
Forget the zippers, this guy generally handles vintage guitars and thier cases like farm animals...
Yeah he is a butcher
Plays em like they're meant to be played!
He handles them like they're musical instruments. If you don't like it, buy the thing and place it on an overstuffed pillow in a glass display case.
profd65 yea but a $50k+ guitar deserves a little better care than your average guitar..
@@profd65 yeah, like be Bonanzamassa.
it's just another old guitar, it's not the guitar it's the guitarist. jimi played his greatest music on CBS strats !
yup..totally!!
Nothing wrong with a CBS strat lol

Open G tuning---that's why you hear Crowes Twice as Hard and Stones All Down the Line---they sounded awesome!
God, I want, I want, I want this guitar

Can you guys do a video on some of the less popular guitars in the store like the Jaguar/Jazzmaster/Mustang?

But does its sound differentiate from the 1951-52 Telecasters?
HE FUCKING ONE HAND BALANCES IT AT 1:40
John 5 bought this one, you can see it in his "behind the nut love" music video
Killer tone
It was on EBay at one point.
And yes it was a couple of hundred +
best you ever sounded man
Hey yr a pretty good guitar player!
it is what it is
F...ing COOL !!!
I like this mark guy now. He's grows on you lol
I don't know if it's possible to marry a guitar, but I'd commit to this one ;)
Rytime there has been a guy who did marry his guitar
Ahhhh the pre-GOTD days and mark sounds like he was forced to do this😂
Gotta play Keith on the black guard tele. Doesn't get much better than that.
John 5 will own this eventually, I think.
"Hipster leather jacket of the...........whenever I take it off"
Actually the Black Crowes sound right at home on it.
Sounds like the voice coil on the Tweed is blown.

When can you do some shovel guitars?
And he's playin' "authentic"!
Sad that we didn't hear some Bakersfield country through a twin.
I bought this guitar from Norm and later sold it to John 5
i wished you would of tested the blend with the Bridge, and neck ☻
Never ceases to amaze me how much randomson the internet think they know more than professionals
@Jay Caldwell
Yea, shit for brains. He gets paid to do what he does.
Boom roasted
Does that Tele have an Alnico 3 pickup on the bridge position and an A2 on the neck, or is it the opposite? Thanks

that sounds as good as my squire classic vibe! luckily, mine has a truss rod, so the neck will never bow.

He looks like Christopher Wolstenholme !!
Always thought there was only one Broadcaster whose owner is David Gilmour.
What's the first song he is playing??
Bet he about to take Fender to court for using that single cut design. Cuz he be lookin out
That guitars with John 5 now
Fender serial numbers are not sequential. Dave Gilmore's black strat is #0001 according to the stamp but is not the first made!

Black Crowes,intro to Twice as Hard
2:10 the rolling stones - jiving sister fanny

wish fender made pick ups today that sound like this. for some reason they just dont have this tone.

Is this the one Richie Sambora bought?
What are the songs at 2:00 and 3:13? I like beat up old guitars but this one's clean and very valuable so maybe it should stay like that
song of 3:13 is "All Down the Line" by "Rolling Stones"
Gotta get me a Leather Jacket.......oh and a Tele!
So is it a broadcaster or a Telecaster? because you called it both. And what's the difference?
Paco Aguilar Okay, never heard any details about them other than they are the same guitar, so I'm gonna go with that. ✨😆👍✨🇺🇸
