On this episode of the #GuitarStoreTour I’m at the awesome Riff City Guitar in South Dakota. When a harmless guitar store customer sits down to play some licks, another quickly sits beside him, vying for the chance to hear his own wankery. A volume war quickly ensues, with a rather dramatic result. Grab your earplugs and buckle up for this one. Make sure to follow me on Twitter to see where the #GuitarStoreTour will stop next, and tune into my TH-cam channel for new episodes every Wednesday. 50 States. 50 Guitar Stores. 50 Weeks.

The cookie I ordered from Riff city guitars came with a Chapman guitar! What a deal! Also, Riff City is a class act. I had an issue that they resolved like complete professionals. So I bought an amp from them too. I can’t say enough good things about those folks.
I bought a cookie from them too, but mine came with a Keeley D&M Drive. That cookie made the short list to eventually get after seeing it unveiled on That Pedal Show (which was the reason I ultimately bought that cookie from Riff City), but I accidentally ordered it immediately after watching Pete Thorn's "battle of the natural overdrives" video (which I'm pretty sure wasn't even a sponsored video...?). Consider yourself warned. ;-)
@@RustSQUIDFACE Yeah! It's an expensive cookie but the guitar makes up for it. Actually when you buy something from them it comes with a cookie. A really good one too.
This store is amazing, went there for the first time about a month ago and I was blown away. Bought me a new Chapman because they were so cool there. Will be back soon to check out some other new gear....Riff City rocks
This is so cool! I’ve been in this exact store a couple times and have met some of those guys. I even strummed a couple cords on that orange Flying V !
Tyler's really upped his CGI budget, from $0 to...more than $0. Great vid! I love Joe and the guys at Riff City. I bought my PRS Custom 24 core model at one of their MN stores. It's my favorite guitar.
That's the guy who brought Chapman to the US, no? About the Volume war. I weekly go to my favourite store. The staff have become good friends of mine. It almost never happens that there is a volume war, but what does happen fairly often are the shredder guys coming in and turn an amp up. They start playing and it's a wall of noise. They usually do this for about an hour. You can't talk anymore, you can't test an instrument anymore, and it's a clusterfuck of noise. You wouldn't believe that the staff actually starts hiding, but they do. Because they want to be customer friendly, they don't go in to stop them immediately. But after a while they start dropping hints 'Can I help you?', 'Good amp and guitar, don't you think', 'If you need anything, just ask', 'Want to try something different?', 'Are you satisfied with the guitar?'. After a couple of those questions, those customers are getting the hints that the staff will be coming back to answer questions like that :-)
I saw this amp in the background of a video Rob Chapman did with Riff City Guitar, and I have been dying to see what the deal is with it because I couldn't fine one anywhere to hear what it sounds like! So glad I got to hear at least a little bit out of it! Would love to hear more as to what that thing can really do!
Ha! I took a handful of guitar lessons from the guy in the hat. Then one day I showed up and his employer was like “yeah, he’s gone. He works for a newspaper now. He didn’t tell you?”
Haha ive been waiting for this video to come for a while now' glad you thought of this. Hey i noticed another annoying thing people do in gc that maybe you can make a video of please" so go into guitar center and what ever song you here someone else play you play it right after them and keep copying everything they are playing and trying to one up them at it' i see so many people do that' its the most cringyiest thing ever.

あいおう通常はないもないhd リフシティーギターズから何かを買うとクッキーがついてくるのでこういうジョークがあるんですよ(笑)
They are closed now :(

Man, the breaking string thing was hilarious. Thanks for bringing us some funny stuff, like the old days.
I broke a string here you go.
Rest in Power Riff City, you will be missed.

You can buy it: www.ebay.com/itm/Black-Label-Audio-BLA100-Zakk-Wylde-Head-Cabinet-ONE-OF-A-KIND-Prototype-/113327444205
@@MusicisWin sure he can, why this video would exist if he couldnt
not even gonna lie I thought that amp would have been more than $1400, I still can't afford it either way though so
the fact is that i did not know Zakk is doing his amp brand
@@bezimiennygrzes5593 lmao

Best thumbnail face I’ve seen in ages.

Literally every time I walk into guitar center
So this is what inspired Nuclear Blast for their animated bumper!
That bc rich looks so much like wolf I love it
Ben Turner I was thinking the same thing! I want one now.
What a great idea for a series
hahahaha! I love Riff City! I have purchased several guitars and pedals from them. They are awesome! What a beautiful Amp! And, oMG! That guitar!
Well done!
I literally came in the day after you were there Tyler. Lol just missed you
Awesome video!!! This was amazing, I can't wait for the rest 😂😂👌🔥
Imagine the feedback that would come from that amp.

I needed a good laugh this morning.
My favorite part is 2:37

I tried that...😂
Hahah i love this. Keep it up. It makes my day
Damn this video was awesome!
My ear drum blasted 🤯
That's the guy who brought Chapman to the US, no?

This was awesome!!
Lol at the fog machine.
Because of that sound my house is now grounded
You had me rolling with that face, man. Digging your channel, nice job (even the B-porno acting)

Rubber Band I think its a new feature bc I had it for a Metallica video, but not sure
this shit happens a lot, one day i was playing my blues things on a telecaster and then a guy start shredding like a crazy
How do I find out which guitar stores you’re going to? It would be rad if you end up near me I’d love to come say hi
No way, i went to this store this summer
Dude! You blew the world up! lol
the stare down lolllll
This video is sure to be million view
God this is bringing back nightmares ...
such an epic video really. . !!
Now that's a POWER chord, destroying the world is a small price.
I feel like the guitar string breaking wasn’t supposed to happen lol 😂
great vid!
Around 4:20 should've played Black Hole Sun
Yeah. Orange amp guy with Orange amp's ads style. I can dig it.
Woahhh I live like 6 hours away from Sioux Falls
I once did that and my neighbours weren't happy
Uk what i like more ? That levys leather strap 🔥🐾
Coffe in a guitar store the place feels homey
It doesn't go to 11!! How can it not go to 11?!?!? Seriously, this cracked me up.
The other guy looks like Rob Chapman in the thumbnail
This is better than any movie. Too bad it only lasts for about five minutes.
I love your mad face 😂
Damn I didn’t even know this store existed haha. Gonna have to check it out next time I’m in Sufu
Actual footage of our band's rehearsal place
You’re in Sioux Falls! What the heck I live like an hour and a half from there.
"And this video is sponsored by black label audio"
Bro was literally in that same exact store like a month ago😂😂 fuckin crazy😂
Ha! I took a handful of guitar lessons from the guy in the hat. Then one day I showed up and his employer was like “yeah, he’s gone. He works for a newspaper now. He didn’t tell you?”
1:14
No wonder you didn't hear yourself. Your amp wasn't turned on :)
I heard the story from Rob Chapman about that amp when he was there .
I wish riffcity had a store in Idaho 😭
Lol the chord that shook the world 🎸🤟
Great, now the store has no Atmosphere. Thanks "Tyler"
I love th Stairway to heaven solo
Im pretty sure he went to film production school.
Cool I live in sioux falls. I though that store looked familiar
I'm surprised you didn't go to haggertys in rapid city. I live here and they are a dedicated Taylor dealer and have a huge room dedicated.
Your kidding me... I live literally 5 blocks away and I had no idea you were there
Haha ive been waiting for this video to come for a while now' glad you thought of this. Hey i noticed another annoying thing people do in gc that maybe you can make a video of please" so go into guitar center and what ever song you here someone else play you play it right after them and keep copying everything they are playing and trying to one up them at it' i see so many people do that' its the most cringyiest thing ever.
Sometimes it feels like I'm the only one who actually goes to check out the gear and not my own playing.
Beautiful playing from tyler😂
