The shy beginner one hit too close to home
Same
Introvert problems, I also am shy
For whatever reason the furtive way he looks around reminded me of the way some tigers do when they're about to investigate something or move one of their kills.
You may look timid but I bet you're the most dangerous person there... :)
When the guy ran away laughing... ouch.
I knoooooow dude, I'm still a novice and I honestly would probably have to buy the guitar first and take it home just to test it 😩
When i walk in guitar store i magically forgot all the chords and what's my name
I never have this problem, you can't forget what you don't know in the first place ;)
Hhaha me too😂
When I walk in, I become intimidated and will buy a guitar before plugging in. I'm 29 and have been playing since 94. I don't want to be that guy. I hate it.
Jelena Trisic same! I get so nervous playing around other people, that I just blank out.
Same haha i turn into the 1 riff guy 🤣🤣😂😂🤘🏼🎸
Shout out to guitar stores for tolerating our BS like this. I remember being 15 and going to guitar center with no money or intention on buying anything. Just grabbing whatever looked cool off the wall and jamming on the amps. Really helped me nail down what instruments are comfortable for me and gain a somewhat entry level understanding on operating amps/equipment.
So a time waster then :)
@@Soldano999dude get off your high horse he was 15
Ha, the day I went looking for a Stratocaster; had a whole crowd gathered when I blasted off PROUD MARY with all of the bar chords sliding down the fingerboard! I told him I needed a narrow neck guitar to get a better sound!!
WELL DONE, Jared!; You hold that guitar like a real PRO. You should hove been at the Brass Ring years ago, when Delaney and Bonnie were preforming there. I was working with Ben Benay on some originals arrangements; I played a few melodies for him on violin, and he knew I was teaching myself guitar; He said he wanted to show me something that the "guitarists like to use to impress the girls' with!" HE SHOWED ME THE BAR CHORD, ha the Major, the Minors, the 7th; (and yes, the C#Minorj, with a diminished 7th"....THEN he clamped a capo on; WOW Guitar made Easy! WHEN I SHOWED MY FEMALE FRIENDS AND STUDENTS THAT BAR CHORD sliding up and down the fingerboard, I think live band performances lost a major part of their screaming girl fans!
Like to see you use that CHEATER BAR in some of your new videos!
Have fun-And I was told that "cheater bar" was just a bar where people hung out to cheat on their spouses.!.

@@kieferrea4819 i was just kidding. That's a humoristic video we all fit one or several of these categories.
That’s important marketing. The enthusiastic teenagers are the customers of tomorrow.
I feel so seen with the shy beginner.. haha I was trying to buy my acoustic before even learning ANYTHING so I was literally just strumming strings so I could at least get a sense of it, and dude was like "let me hear what you got!" and I'm like "I got nothing I'll go now thanks" lol
Similar situation to me :D I went for an amp, as I got an electric guitar a few weeks ago, and the store guy just went "Alright, lets hear it!" and I'm like "Uhm, I started a couple weeks ago and know a grand total of 3 half-riffs" :D
Everyone starts somewhere! Your stories are very relatable.
Ended up buying a Gibson Les Paul without trying it since I was still learning. Didnt want to be judged or talked into playing lol.
My first experience was GREAT.. I already had a guitar from a friend so I learned with that.. When I wanted to try other guitars, I went to good ole' Guitar Center.. It was so loud! The first song I learned was 'Teen Spirit'.. It was easy and didn't hurt to play.. I played it in Guitar Center, my first time ever in public and people grouped around me! I had my first concert! It felt awesome to turn around and see a bunch of people, including GIRLS!!!!!, watching me play... When I walked in, it was the most intimidating place I've EVER been... I walked out a rock god! lol
That was me. I was just looking for a western guitar, that fits me. I'm a small person and just wanted a guitar that don't hurt my upper arm while playing.
The nice seller understand and reached me different ones. But I was so shy to try because I couldn't play a single chord.
The shy beginner one feels like a personal attack
The shy beginners is just an introvert; I know because I'm a introvert.
Dude I felt super called out.
Lol that was totally me
@@kiyoo3132 not all introverts are shy :-)
Oh to inform you: there are different types of people. Some are more extroverted and have just a little introverted side, which they don't show, some are introverted and extroverted which depends on the environment(like friends where you are going insane or for example a class with attractive people where you go into shy mode) and then there are introverted people which may are very little extroverted :-)
@@americanteehee5699 I am
Im a drummer, not a guitar player, but when he dropped that guitar....
No.......
High five from a fellow drummer
Rocky Leasdale me too dude!
I appreciate you bro
I know I cringed so hard especially because my dad is a guitar player and he’s done that once with his Wolfgang. (Also hello fellow drummer)
Yeah that's not cool. Rock on people ✊
I owned a music store for 4 years, this is so spot on hilarious. On the flip side, I opened the store because I got sick of going to a store, wanting to play a guitar. The guy working at the store would shred, then hand it off to the customer. This happened in every store I went into. So I opened my own store.
Yeah many of these guys lack basic commercial skills.
Like asking people what they're looking for and if they have a budget.

hahah this happened to me when i got my first guitar. the guy shredded on it and handed it to me... and i was hooked. I was way more than a shy beginner. I just wanted to learn from scratch, so having the possibilities laid on to me at that moment was eye opener
I walked in to a guitar only once in my life. I left with the perfect guitar that I still love four years later
MINE IS 18 YEARS NOW. IT'S AN IBANEZ GXR370 SILVER. STILL WORKS GREAT BUT I GOT IT DESTRINGED AND MADE IT AS MY ROOM DECOR.
Mine is a lowley lpj that I got when I was 8 I haven't put it down or subbed it out for a different guitar in 11 years
That must have hurt.. when you walked into that guitar. hopefully you and the guitar were all right bro
that must have hurt
was it a Maple or Mahogany guitar that you walked into ?
I walked into a glass door once, that hurt, i imagine timber would hurt more
@@ant0ni0sant0s put some strings on it? it's not that hard, not like it's a piano lmao
when he dropped the guitar I died a little inside
Icepaw40 i think everyone did, when bands on rock concert smash their guitar im like: WHYY NOOOO WHYYU such a boutifull guitarr...
same
Icepaw40 i thougt i was the only one lol
Icepaw40 same
yea. felt the same
Imagine all of these dudes being in the same store at the same time
*AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA*
a.k.a. what I experienced at Guitar Center about a month ago
Lol yeah that's life at a big guitar center
Let's just burn down the store with everyone in it.
@@oferzilberman5049 I'll take the guitars first. Then we can burn it down
I was the shy beginner and time waster in the same night, spent quite a bit of time with one of the salesmen and I learned a ton about electric guitar. I ended up getting his card and the hours that he works so that when I did pull the trigger and blow about $1500 he was able to make that sweet commission on the sale.
$1500 for a beginner guitar? You're not just a time waster, you're a money waster. too.
@@charliedillon1400 that was guitar, amp, case, and guitar stand combined. Also I'm new to electric, but have been playing bass guitar and acoustic for 10 years. Still happy with my purchase, a year later.
@@charliedillon1400people still recommend a “beginner guitar?”
Any guitar you buy as a beginner is a beginner guitar.
“Beginner guitars” are terrible. They don’t hold a tune. They sound like shit. You’d never buy one so why would expect a new player to buy one?
Find a persons budget and get them the best they can afford. Not a cheap junker that won’t inspire passion to play.
@@TeensierPython Uh no, beginner guitars are real and many are most are completely fine to start with. Go tell a beginner they have to blow a band on a stratocaster because a squire or harley wont "hold a tune" or "inspire passion to play". You know what wont inspire passion to play? The burden of having to drop big money on a guitar. They're called beginner guitars because they're cheap enough to where if you end up not liking it, it won't make a hole in the wallet, but they're just good enough to get a feel for the hobby.
And the whole tone thing with expensive guitars is a myth too... tone comes from pickups, strings, your amp and so on. Has nothing to do with the price tag, whether it's a unibody, mahogany, rosewood, maple. Go do a blind test between for example a strat and a squire and tell me if you can hear any significant difference for a 800+ dollar price difference.
@@hey9433 read the end.
Find a budget. Buy the best you can afford.
If your budget is $100. Then buy the best $100 guitar. If you can afford $1500 then get the best you can afford.
If you can’t afford it. Lower your budget.
If your budget is $600 why would you buy a $100 guitar?
Love to see a video about the 10 types of guitar store staff. There’s the confidence destroyer, who demoes his own skill instead of the instrument, then the too busy dude who will get to you when they’ve finished inventorying the picks, or the simply too cool to speak to customers dude who is talking to the other cool store staff and ignoring you, the one who can’t stop saying “dude” or “bro” the condescending git who starts a conversation with barely concealed contempt for your musical choices. List goes on 😂
this isn't realistic
there aren't 3 kids playing different drum sets in the next room
Mj F bro ikr!
Electronic ones too.
Ummmmm. I wasn’t here
lmao that is so true
Now hang on that describes me hard
>Played guitar for five years
>Acts like a shy beginner because other guitarists are scary
I just....I’ve never related to something so much
Yup
Lemme ask you something, has this happened to you? As either rhythm or lead guitarist have you ever been playing and feel your confidence getting higher for whatever reason (trust me it happens especially when try something new) some asshole two amps away gears up and cranks that bitch just enough to be slightly louder than you and begins to play faster and flashier as if to taunt you, AND IT WORKS. (Notice how I didn't use the word better)
Marinko The_Uncanny67th It happens quite often. Trumpet players like to pull that one, too. Why are people like this?
@@jamie6506 Idk man, but remember I used the word flash and not better, because (in my opinion at least) I'll take rhythm or even a simple solo over shredding any day (before anyone feels like pulling someone like Dimebag outta their ass and "call me out" His best solos are much simple in comparison to some modern guitarists that I've come across in these shops, don't ask me to name em because I didn't take the time to memorize something I didn't enjoy)
Great stuff. One inaccuracy though: I doubt an employee would mock a beginner. Being guitar lovers, we are always happy seeing new people wanting to learn the instrument.
My father played guitar all his adult life (I was his best student) I took him to a guitar store when he was in his late 80s and, true to form, he sat down and wanted to try a few of the axes…I put an ES 335 in his hands and he started playing standards in his Jazzy chord & melody style; head down & oblivious to the crowd gathering around him many of whom probably never heard anyone play like that in such an informal setting; quite a departure from the usual guy making noise as he butchered Whole Lotta Love on the fluorescent green Ibanez; everyone in the shop exploded in applause after he hit his last major 7th glissando; he was pleasantly surprised & humble but did compare the Gibson negatively to his beloved ‘65 Epiphone Casino which is now mine (dad played ‘til he passed @ age 95)
Ahhhhh so you’re the Story guy
Cool story!
your old man is right

sweet story
I like your story! Wish my Dad cared about me growing up like yours must have
I could feel everyone gasp and cringe when that guitar dropped
Exotic Excision sameeee
th-cam.com/video/wUtXr6yZFHM/w-d-xo.html watch this guy's face go from "haha" to "😱"
I'm sure it was the cheapest guitar they had, but I still cringed pretty hard. And I cant even play guitar lol
No, since this is my 582nd time watching this video I’ve gotten used to it
I used to have a stagg Les Paul copy and when I was practicing with it one day I put it on my guitar stand and it fell down splitting the neck in 2
I’m not a beginner at some instruments, but I still act like the shy beginner when someone walks by.
yeah it sucks because i wanna have my privacy
Joaquín Koller some people just don’t understand that 🤷🏻♂️
It's ok guys it"s better not to show off
Same. I’m decent in my room, but once someone watches me I get self conscious and my mind goes blank. 😩
I’m good in front of a crowd but when I’m practicing I get supe r self conscious
I always hang out in the acoustic guitar room because it allows me to get away from the white noise of 6 different people playing different things all at once. Plus, I get to play some really nice sounding acoustic guitars
Try those Target fancy nails and Crazy Glue-works great-shape them to fit...
JARED should make a video with an aspiring female who comes in with DOLLY PARTON fingers and tries to play guitar!

@@lyndafaye6748 wat
I was the quiet player guy when i was a kid lol. I hated playing at guitar stores when i was little. As i got older and played with more people and eventually started playing in bands doing birthday parties or just crazy parties or special occasions where people wanted a band to play. I was fine with playing in guitar stores then. That’s about the time I became the pick theif. That’s right everybody it was me and i still have most of them so just come by and point out yours and I’ll give them back.

Lamb God that’s a little weird but it does have a good sound
@@charliel3248 I've been called weird since my first years of primary school😂 Come on it sounds SEXY though😂
The guy who comes in everyday, looks at everything for hours, doesn’t talk to anyone and goes home and buys everything cheaper online.
Enda Coughlan honestly talking to people is my favorite thing about guitar stores
That’s me. But living of min wage is hard :(. I would buy from my local store if I could but they are pretty pricey unfortunately.
Definitely me
That’s definitely my dad😂😂
Checking the prices first
when i was looking to buy my first bass the lady sat me down next to a man who was clearly a professional, playing like a 4k bass and i had never even touched one prior to that i was MORTIFIED
he ended up turning around, tuning the guitar for me, and even teaching me how to play a few basic things, and i ended up buying it a few weeks later.
I still wish I could go back and thank him.
I'm the dad that loves metal and supporting his 10 year old son in his quest to become a guitar lord. So I go into the store and listen to everything the dudes behind the counter tell me because the only musical history I have was playing drums in concert band and singing in a hard core punk band during the 90s. I already understand I know nothing... but I love everything.
Played for 10 years, played tons of live shows.
Still the shy beginner.
Austin Lawson o
it’s all about not finding someone better than you in there man
same lol minus the shows
20 years of playing behind and still the shy guy
Yeah me too. Mainly cause I don't like playing/noodling loudly in public. It's tough to try out an amp with a guitar and have it be quiet. You don't want to "that guy" at guitar center who plays way too loud. I believe in not intruding on people's ears.
Man, that Shy Beginner one. I felt myself shrinking when the other guy was like, "Here, I'll turn that up for you."
Oh my god same like NO IM FINE I CAN HEAR IT JUST FINE EVERYTHING IS FINE AHAHAHA 😅😅😅
@@Jay-yo1yx that was just cruel. I have totally been that guy. (still am)

The pedal one actually sounded good in the weirdest way possible. Sort of trippy but I dig it.
what delay does to a motherfucker xD
Hear me out: beginning of money for nothing - dire straits
The one riff guy one was so funny with the dude doing such a good job of explaining to him the different details XD
“Shy beginner”
Yes. I play in the safety of my home where I won’t get judged 😂
Only he without riff can cast the fir.... wait... uhhhhh and I bet you're better than me. Cause I can't play lol
Same😂
That is 100% me haha
Fuck I felt attacked when I saw that
same..
Me at home: *skill of James Hetfield, John Petrucci, Synyster Gates and Jimi Hendrix combined*
Me in guitar store: *can't play smoke on water*
Nothing to worry man he jus holds different guitars but you holds precious earned skills to play them
i have the same thing but with drums
me at home: can play tom sawyer and hot for teacher
me while shopping for drums: can't play yesterday
so true
Same but in front of anyone
Man I feel that. For the love of god, surfing with the alien etc, disappears and I only just remember how to play enter sandman or smoke on the water 😂
This is so accurate I didn’t even laugh, just nodded in a silent solidarity for everyone who’s still working in musical instrument retail. Some days I miss that job but more often than not, I don’t.
I am currently the “shy beginner “but my end goal is the “crowd pleaser” 😂 I honestly like all the songs he played it that bit. 😅
Don't lie we've all been the one riff guy for at least a month in our lives.
But at least it actually felt like the "watch me shred guy" despite being shit hahahaha
@@XxXBlocPartyXxX haha, playing sunshine of your love or smoke on the water over and over again😂 "watch me shred"
Yea when i started guitar i played "perfect" by ed sheeran for one whole month lol
not me, I never actually bothered to learn any songs, i played my own stuff from a day one;
I can relate 😂
To all the shy beginners: any "good" player has been there. Stick with it, the rewards are worth it!
Lol thanks! I have only been playing for 8 or 9 months and now I'm playing for my church band😆😫
Acoustic guitar is the first insterment I have ever played😳
I'm getting my first guitar tomorrow. It's going to be hundreds of hours of practices.
@@saltissalty3833 its a lot of fun😉 I was tempted to give up but im glad I stuck to it! Once you get the basics down your start to learn real fast good luck!
@@saltissalty3833 The first year (give or take) is the hardest part of learning guitar. If you can stick with it that long you have it licked. I used to just strum chords while watching TV, just to get used to switching chords & not watching my fingers. Any time with the guitar in your hands is good. Good Luck!
My goal is to play fly me to the moon in 3 AM with the guitar while looking at the moon,but im noob
I probably took "shy guitar" guy to the another level. I'd researched the crap out of various guitar models online, watch TH-cams, etc. Then go to the store and play one tab riff and one chord riff. If I didn't like it, I'd go home and repeat the process until I found one that did what I expected both in sound and comfort. Then I'd ask store to check out, inquire about the additional cost for guitar case, and go on my way. The entire experience would be In an out within 15 min. Being in stores like this around actual good guitarists can be intimidating. So I try to go in and out as quickly as possible. Exactly what I did with my most recent guitar purchase. I have not been back for about 5 years since the guitar still sounds great and is decently maintained.
Jared you and the guys did this brilliantly 👏 need to see more
The no respect dude: **drops guitar**
Literally anyone who plays an instrument or has respect for instruments, music, etc.: *0-0*
I felt physical pain when I saw it.
yeah jared looks like he cringed a bit too
my brain hurts everytime i watch that part

Yeah, that was an involuntary trigger for me.
*smoke out the ears*
Once I was shy beginner. Now, I am one riff guy.
Maybe someday I'll learn to play
Harrison Lane lolol
No better time to learn than now
Wish u luck
Don't quit. 1 riff will turn into 2 and so on. Just wait till you get to the Dimebag phase, it's awesome.
I think that’s 99% of us 😆
Son and I frequent a locally owned shop that is absolutely awesome. Both the shop and the customers that you run into there are super cool. Very hands on friendly shop and diverse customer base. I learn something new every time we visit. Never really encounter these stereotypes, but I’m sure Shane the owner does.
I feel like I watch this video one or twice a year and still laugh every time. Love the video 😂😂
The ‘one riff guy’ hit home for me. I like maintaining eye contact with random people while repeatedly playing the Come As You Are intro.
J Falcon you can't be serious....
MEEEEEEEEEEE AAAAAAJSJSJSHHSHS
Bold 🤣🤣 that was the first riff I learned as well
Now that. That was a personal attack
I was the "two riff guy" at one point

Dropping the guitar hurt my entire body and the deepest part of my soul
OW
Can’t forget about the employees who play for hours and then don’t let you try the guitar
I remember buying a Squire Bullet Strat to take apart and make a new guitar out of, and the guy who was helping me out was like "Do you want to play it to make sure you like it?" And I was like "Nah, it's good." (Plus, I've already bought one before.)
After I bought it, he let me know I had free tune-ups for a year. Which, I guess was good to know, in case I screwed up building my own guitar.
Christopher Knight LMFAO I was like where is this going

I used to be somewhat like the shy beginner, but my local guitar center basically thinks of me as a regular face, and I really enjoy being there because of the friendly environment there, and I always play a ton, got like 2 of my favorite guitars there too
Lowkey do love the questions guy becuase they just fucking love music and are happy to be there. Even if its annoying sometimes its always a positive experience
The pedal enthusiast just wrote a Pink Floyd song.
Very true.
Man some pink floyd guitar solos are some of the most technical solos ever made back then

Another disotion before the delay in the wall
7:43 should have been called "The Pick Pocketer"
You're going places.
Yeah. He really fucked that one up
Missed opportunity
yyeeesssss
Yo that's good
So many of these hit home. 😂
One type that is missing is “The Drop Tuner” or “Detuner”. The guys that come in and alternate tune or drop C tune every guitar they try.
Hillarious video. I remember stores where banners on the wall quoted "No Stairway to heaven, No Smoke on the Water" and more. I walked into a specialized Bass Guitar Store in Frankfurt once, just to see what they caried. Two guys were having a Blues session and the staff clearly had a difficult time. They had a Status Bass on display with the usual Traee Elliot Stack sitting right beside it. Asked if I could have a go with the Status, to which they happily agreed. Some Mark King Lines later the Blues Session was over. Staff was very happy and me as well, having been able to at least have a go with the Bass of my dreams. 😀
I’m the shy beginner. So shy I won’t play in a guitar store.

The Seattle Guitar Store was so great! Loved seeing that Seattle Guitar Store shirt too. They were great partners with us when I ran the Seattle School of Rock nearby - shout out to James! Sad to see it closed down, but they had a good run.
I lost it with the Sandman riff played on the banjo.
Same
More like Enter Alabama
Try Todd Taylor playing crazy train banjo
Rob Scallon approves
The ukulele one also lits
Been playing for 15 years. Have no stage fright or issues playing shows, but at the guitar shop I'm still feel like the "shy beginner"
Felt the same way when I was in a GC playing Cannibal Corpse and Nevermore trying out some guitars, while some older dude was busting out Randy Rhoads style licks and riffs like it was no one’s business. I feel his playing was more welcome in the store.
@@coffinfeeder7732 I think that has a lot to do with it. I don't feel like I'm shy as in embarrassed, but rather I'm trying to be courteous. I am pretty heavily punk rock influenced and feel like unless it's what you're paying or expecting to see, it can be kind of intrusive. So I head to the acoustic room at GC while it's left unattended!

Yea it's weird isn't it..... I played over 30 years.... and can still feel sometimes "low confidence" in the guitar shop lol....
I guess its something we do mostly on our own.... hence being nervous around other skilled or even beginner players can be nerve wracking.... and fingers become jelly 😂....
I would never ever attempt to play in these stores. I'd rather just buy the instrument and go. 😂
Brilliant! Loved it!
This is actually a real helpful do’s and don’t s for me in a guitar store
how about "the guy that legitimately wants to buy something but can't try the product out because a bunch of fuckwits are crowding the store"
Laterallus Can definitely relate to that
Laterallus me
The just wanna hear what this damn guitar sounds like but 3 people are all competing for the airwaves so you can't hear it.
relatable
Laterallus God I hate that
After working at guitar center for years, I can confirm that all of these stereotypes are completely accurate.
former gc employee here too. and the regular people don’t ever really get it.
@@paulk1181 guitar center isn’t a real guitar store. It’s music Walmart.
@@kishascape gatekeep much?
@@kishascape I found one that had a loud room with a Mesa Triple Rectifier in it. That is how you sell axes.
@@kishascape then what is
Omg dude this was hilarious, I’ve seen this with gun stores on TH-cam and it always resonated with me, first time seeing it with a guitar store.
I’m beginner intermediate and I’m still that shy guy in the guitar store!!!
Crazy this in Seattle!!! I’m in Tacoma so I’ll be checking this place out!
Couldn’t have done this video with anybody else this was so perfect lol
0:59 you can see he is holding himself from going back, we all know the pain of letting a guitar hit the ground
On the strings too
Not to mention the sound of a headstock crack...
We all know.
My dog always knocks down my bass and it’s pain
@@woahthere7895 my friends laid it on the ground and it almost got stepped on
I did not let them touch it again
Works at a guitar store:
Customers: plays guitar
Employee: *HEY*
Guitar store employees are like minifigures in a Lego City commercial
There's a guy who works at the Guitar Center in Omaha who every single time I'm in there, just has to say something to me about how loud I'm playing even though I just played one note. Its not like its my fault that the first amp I plugged into was already turned up just loud enough that he can't hear the phone ringing.
@@LowgaenSchmidt wow I'm from outside of omaha and I know exactly what guy your talking about
I knew a guy who was all these guys combined. And yes, he was loud and shy at the same time. One of the greatest mysteries of my existence.
Lol. One riff guy with the Sandman tune had me crying in laughter bro. Pedal enthusiast too was hilarious.
God Bless
I wish I had a dollar for every time I walked into a guitar store and had the honor of seeing the next up and coming Jake E. Lee trying out a Gibson or Fender, and then never seeing them again.
Haha! Every time I pass into a guitar store "Philip Nakas" I look at instruments. My favourite instruments are guitars
Who is Jake E Lee?
Why don't you have enough money? Due to coronovarious or something else?
@@marialenaho5249 Ozzys old guitarist
I guess that they just check out the instrument and than they buy it online for eshop price.
That “Get the f*ck out” was filled with more anxiety than I imagined.
The shy beginner is so me, I literally practiced what I wanted to play before going to get my last guitar. The store had a little noise room and was empty so I had a blast, but I was so anxious lmao
Hillarious ..... Thank you for making my day
I wanna hug shy beginner.
Delta here I am .w./
hug me coward
Sad Pupper *hugs back*
Ksamantha *hugs everyone*
God all of you are cringe
Note : the real shy beginner actually only uses headphones to avoid anyone actually hearing him :P
The real shy begginer doesn't even know it's possible to play with headphones.
I know this because I found out like 2 months ago
Amen, I didn't know anything about amps and trusted the wizards tending the shop to make the string music thingy work, when I bought one the guy told me I could do that and I felt like such an idiot.
I'm a beginner and I just found out because tou made this comment
DraXure Z same😂😂
Very true
The pedal enthusiast one cracked me up and I am so doing this next time I go shopping lol
Recommended in 2023 and still one of my favourite TH-camrs love you jarred much love Canada 🇨🇦❤️
I'm a little disappointed that the one riff guy wasn't playing One
Really? Talk about an awful joke
@@nu-agegamer3548 that’s the point
@@csmolen I don't care tbh
@@nu-agegamer3548 why'd you comment then
@@nu-agegamer3548 r/whoosh
Doesn't matter how long I've been playing, I will always be the "shy beginner" whenever I am at a guitar store.
Devan Kranz same.. same.. :( xD
Same
Lol exactly. I feel pretty confident about my skill, but i still don't like being watched, and i never plug in at the store
So far that's been me every time because there's always the shredding guy present haha
Same. I'm always the shy beginner when someone is watching.
Excellent vid miss that store
I wish guitar stores (or any store dedicated to a hobby) we're more friendly to begginers. They always treat you like you're not welcome there. Whenever you ask for something cheap to start out with they always seem really annoyed, and if you can't play, they judge you. That's why I don't even go to stores like that anymore and just order online.
I totally agree. I get vibed too because Im not Eddie Van Halen. Most have a superiority complex
imagine you’re walking into a guitar store, and you hear this otherworldly sound. you wonder “what is happening? is this place a portal to another universe?” turns out while walking around you see a pedal enthusiast just screwing around
sounds like a post rock song lmao
average shoegaze/post-rock fan
I was a pedal enthusiast for a long time, until I finally skipped the middle man and switched to synths. 🎹
1:00 when the guitar dropped so did my heart
same omggg
I mean, it was just a Fender lol.
@@AB-80X it’s still a fricken crime! You could get death row!
A cheap Yamaha Pacifica
I love this video🔥🔥🔥🔥
One of the BEST LAUGHS 😂🤣😅 I had in awhile.🎼🎸🎼
"The Pick Thief" doesn't actually exist.
What you're referring to are the Pick Goblins.
They can't be seen because they instantly disappear when you look at them, and their entire purpose in life is to hoard as many picks as possible.
Many a guitarist has known the plague that is the Pick Goblins, and the only way to prevent them from stealing all your picks is _to buy more picks._
That just gives us more to steal
_Hehehehehe_
@@Stormfire1777 I'm coming for you
@@arjun.1751 we will keep coming back. there is no escape
It’s an accident I swear
The one riff guy is easily the best part of this video
Curious Otter when he played the bass it was amazing
Me when I’ve been playing for only 2 months and call myself a guitarist. Same song too
Wieseley I play bass and I absolutely love it I’ve been playing a couple riffs but mostly the same three
Especially when he played it on the banjo XD
Get two for the price of seven
I started playing in 2021, i m currently learning plucking , learning few intros. Hopefully two more years ill be better. May the Guitar Gods stay with u.
I’ve been playing guitar for over 30 years now, and I’m still the shy beginner whenever there’s people around.
In the end it doesn't matter what type of player we are. We all still get the " learning the guitar seemed so slow at first" TH-cam ad
Megan I've been getting that for the past few months! Like omg, TH-cam I already know how to play guitar 😂😂😂
Megan oh my hell yes. Gag me with a field mouse and barricade the cave door lol
yea it doesn't Linkin Park what kind of player we are
Not if you have an adblocker
"I've always wanted to learn how to play the guitar, but the beginning seemed so slow and frustrating"
You're missing that one guy that walks in and has like a list of all the gear their idol uses and wants all of it verbatim
slizzybeans xo I hate that fucking guy, seriously I get at least 1 of them every other day.
well in defense of the guy that's done his homework, almost every guitar source tells newbies to do their homework first so they know what strings, pups, tuners ECT that they need for their guitar before they go in. that being said my gc has awesome people who I enjoy getting opinions from.
Steve B that's not what this is, Steve. It's a new player who's about to learn the hard way that 1.) you won't play and sound like your influences by having a carbon copy of their rig 2.) trying that is lame as shit, and 3.) the gear costs a lot more than the money their parents gave them.
Shit...
I'm the "play quietly in a corner with my Mustang Micro and after many hours buy the guitar out of guilt" guy
That was so enlightening. I will never work in a music store. Thank you so much~
3:30 “two for the price of seven” lmao what a good deal
Ikr😂😂😂
SEVEN HUNDRED THOUSAND!!!
NRSTRIKER 🤣🤣🤣
*guitar drops*
Me: *heart drops*
I know man, Some chick borrowed my guitar (expensive classical guitar) and puts it on the floor at school (was in a music school). *panic*
same
I'm pretty sure that was a rockband controller, sounded like plastic
EmpuGaming And what happened ?
@Flyboy207 I hope so, but I'd swear I saw strings on the headstock. Neck looked pretty convincing. Could've been a guitar some customer had already dropped?
I’ve wanted to work at a music store before this video, thank you
I'd say this is an example of every guitarist, at different stages of play. I remember being everyone of these at different point. Not sure so much in a guitar shop. In general though... lmao.
When he let that guitar fall over that shit made me wince, just hurt mah soul
they had to almost break guitar to make a funny video clip
@@vadiks20032 I bet it was like $100 squire
beef nacos+ it was his $200 ibanez
Blue Jay me too I bet he felt horrible doing it too
Well it was probably one of his own
The One Riff Guy killed me. XDDD
didn't we all start learning that one or two power cords and play it over and over and over before learning something new? :P
I started with open chords
TPHR GAMING me too ha ha!!!
The absolute best of all of 'em.
TPHR GAMING all he played was the riff from enter sandman
This is timeless
I work at a shop and this had me rolling. So accurate
