Jake Bugg talks about his favourite guitars | My Guitars & Me S2E1 | Guitar.com

Welcome back to My Guitars & Me! Kicking off season 2 is singer-songwriter Jake Bugg, who has brought along a beautiful trio of vintage instruments - including a 1966 Fender Stratocaster, a 1954 Fender Esquire and the rarest guitar he owns - 1953 Gibson J-185. We sat down and got to understand his love of these awesome guitars a little more - and how a little bit of liquid courage helped him pull the trigger on that 1950s Gibson.
Jake's new album, A Modern Day Distraction, is out on 4 October.

He's really turned into a nice young man who loves his music. Feels like he's been around for a while, but has so much more to achieve and good for him.

Great video. Loved Jake Bugg since he released his first studio album in 2012. Great to hear about all his guitars.

[@Smiffy830]

Met Jake at a small gig he did in a church in Kingston ( not Jamaica).
He was a really down to earth Nottingham lad, we talked more about football & his beloved Notts County than music.
Very talented guitar, songwriter & a bloody good laugh. Good on ya Jake.

I went to school with this guy. At a sleepover one night he wet the bed 🛏️

[@tonyh8965]

If true, he was a kid, so what? Are you Jealous he's famous and richer than you?

[@contentKING123]

@@tonyh8965 He was 15 and it's definitely true I had to change the sheets.

[@bieituns]

​@@contentKING123why were you having sleep overs at 15? Sounds gay. Did you have a crush on him?

[@contentKING123]

@@bieituns nah a sleepovers summit mates done in in school. I forgot you didn't have any mates so you wouldn't know

[@bieituns]

@@contentKING123 stopped having sleepovers at about 10 before leaving primary school. Having sleepovers with other lads at 15 is gay. Clearly if you had to change your bedsheets he must have been sleeping in your bed. All sounds very gay to me. Sounds like one of those p diddy freak offs
