Why hasn't the Captain promoted himself? Shouldn't he be Admiral Anderton by now?
He's not being career minded.
No admiral without a fleet. He needs to open up a few more shops first. ;-)
PeteW. Well actually, he’d be a Lieutenant Commander
Connor Patrick Nolan Music There's no way a captain can be promoted to lieutenant commander. In the Army/Marines/Air Force a captain (O3) would be promoted to a major (O4). In the Navy/Starfleet a captain (O6) is promoted to a rear admiral (lower half).
He can't be promoted because he is not a real Captain.
Since someone took it to a literal place.
Can’t see action as an admiral
Lee's playing lately has been top notch
XxHarounXx Seriously. I remember when I first found their videos a little more than a year ago, and Lee looked like he was in 'learning' mode. Now, he's Owning. Impressive. I hope to make such progress.
It's great to hear him kick out in his style. He's probably always been a great player but surrounded by shredder dudes and djont monsters it's kind of difficult to get a note in edge-ways.
Yeah, I agree. Great job, Lee! You've really improved a lot, and I'm proud of you!
Both players in top form. Excellent work. Appreciated.
You noticed too? I've come back to their videos after a year and half and I've noticed he has improved quite a bit.
When they say "backed by Fender" it essentially means that Fender corporation stands behind the quality of the product.
It's a pretty common expression for businesses here in the states.
lol holding Squier out at arms length.
It is partly that but it is also "designed and backed by" is their way of saying (without saying) that the Fender co. didn't actually build this guitar, they hired another company to build it for them.
Damn fine opening jam gentlemen. Chappers, I LOVE the fact that you turned on the blues and turned off the shreddtasticness.
Captain... all I can say is wow... you seriously brought your game today!! Very Nice!!
No video is complete without shredding!
I absolutely swear by the Classic Vibe range. Great guitars. Even with both of these being pretty much the same price, I think I'd still take the Squier.
You can buy these cv Squiers for 250 euro secondhand. Cheap as. It's worth keep buying them in storage and in 20 years you can be sitting on something ☺
Just played a cv 70s strat and tele and compared it to the fender player series, vintera and performer. They are great and even felt better than the player and vintera.
but it isn’t a real fender
@@CupofCloud Leo Fender died years ago, they're ALL copies at this point!
No goop is always a good thing.
Captain is killing it in the intro! Don´t care how much he underestimates his own playing. He rocked the vibe in this one!
It's Chappers and The Captain, they're the lads, quit hating on them.
Can a “lad” be over 40?

I have ordered a Squier Limited Edition Bullet Telecaster in Lake Placid Blue and a Fender Mustang I V.2 20W Amp to start my journey learning guitar at almost 50 years old. The videos you folks post are the best videos going when it comes to guitars and amps, keep up the great work and thank you!
Luke Pace I have that Squier Bullet Telecaster lake placid blue and it’s awesome . A really good guitar after a set up .
A good choice of guitar & amp from what I've researched. I considered a Squier but ended up getting an Epiphone LP because I wanted the humbuckers. I'm excited to learn on it! Still shopping for amps but considering the Boss Katana Mini.
you have a guitarists name...if your name was John Smith I'd tell you to forget it
I think it's staggering how much Capt. Lee's playing has improved over the years. I want more close-ups of his right hand please, I think he might well be using the pick of destiny!
+spngrm ha ha - I've been rumbled!!
Last time i was this early, Chappers was an ESP artist :) love your content guys, Cheers!
Caerwyn Deathwhisp Wait Chappers was an ESP artist?
The Inebriati yea way back in the day before he started chapman :) i dont remember exactly but i think it was like 4 years or so ago
Yeah way back in the day like 4 years. Those were the days! Don't mind me, I'm just being a grumpy old man.
But chapman guitars is like 5 years old.
Last time you were this early you were jizz on the wall
I am continually impressed with how much Lee's playing has improved since these videos started. He's always had an ear for a good blues tone, but It really is a joy to listen to the Captain play these days.
Also, as a regularly gigging musician, the Fender's tonal versatility (and belly cut for "five hour show comfort") would make it the winner for me. The CV guitars are great value if you want a more traditional choice.
Fender sorted all this out by 2019. Squire Classic Vibe Custom Telecaster® for $450 is Squier's "dearest". Fender Player Telecaster® is Fender's "least dear" at $675. The Player series is MIM. I have no experience with the Teles, but my Fender Player Strat is a dream for me as a new player. I suspect the Telecaster will be just as sweet. (I don't need a Tele. I don't need a Tele. I don't need a Tele. But I do want one now.)
I have a player tele and I love it....you sure you don't need one? From the sounds of it you already know how great it's going to be lol
you need a tele
No, you need a tele. Everyone needs a tele.
Am I the only one who is concerned abut the thoughtless attitudes of those vocal individuals who frequent the comment section leaving hateful content? Rob has contributed loads to andertons and has received well earned acclaim but people hate on him and ring a round of applause to anyone else to comes to play in his stead! Recently we were lucky enough for Mary Spender to make an appearance and we welcome her with a barrage of sexist and hateful comments, so much so I doubt she will be back! and now we are all hating on the new guy who as far as I'm concerned is perfectly fine. it seems the comments section has turned into a slanging ground hating on people for the sake of hating on them.
Jonathan Fancett Yeah, it is annoying. They should moderate the comments and delete the worst ones. Regarding Mary's video, I swear every time a woman picks a guitar up, a dude magically appears telling you that you're playing it wrong. I hope she does come back!
Jonathan Fancett It's justified to be concerned about a bunch of mindless idiots, whose craving to fill a sad, bottomless void in their lives leads them to troll a TH-cam channel. Haters gonna hate, morons gonna be morons.
I have to agree with you Jonathan... I watch the videos for a few reasons one is because they are fun. The chemistry between Rob and Captain are entertaining and you can tell they are great friends. They actually provide real life scenarios in decision making when it comes to purchasing a guitar. Rob is a very good guitar player that has become relevant in the music industry. Andertons is a business out to sell guitars I don't know how this helps them but it it tends to help us a lot regarding product knowledge.
The part that gets me is some people behind a keyboard will say really stupid things they would never tell a person to there face. Not only that they tend to make comments for the reaction which is just as ridiculous. I have been watching these videos for over a year now and I am still enjoying them. Constructive criticism is always warranted but stupidity is not and most of us know it when we read it!
I have been checking out the Chapman ML-3 Pro Traditional very cool guitar
Jonathan Fancett i like rob as a person and enjoy his demos I just believe his tone and licks to be rather uninspired
Fantastic player though
This is some of Rob's best playing on the channel. Brought it out back and buried it on the opening jam.
That opening jam though! Wow! When Rob decides to play Rock/blues few can touch him. Seriously badass.
Rob KILLING the intro Jam . Henrik Freischlader vibes...
Ashley Mann cheers bro :-)
Aye. I truly enjoyed that into.
"DSDMAMDP" sounds like an Inanez model name.
I shows the enormous bang for the buck the Classic vibe series is . i agree with Rob ,I tried the Chinese Fender creations & much prefer the classic vibe series .
Theyre made in the same factory! 😂
Last year as I was getting back into playing after 20 yrs off, my choice was between exactly these two guitars. I ended up with the Fender and I am still very happy with my pick. I like the multiple sounds I can get from the 3 P/U's and the 5 way switching. The classic vibe is also great and I would recommend either to anyone. Best value under $500.
Man, they both sound really, really good. I especially loved when The Captain took his turn ripping it up, at the end.
4:12 Chappers finally admitted the truth :D Also I've played both and the Fender neck is dreadful. The squire was the finest example of a Tele I've ever played. Massively outshines the regular classic vibe teles in my book.
I agree with Rob about the 3 saddle bridge. I know that the purists love them, but I'm keen to fit one with 6 strat style saddles on mine.
That's actually the best solo I've ever heard from Captain Lee..
Whoever edits these deserves an oscar.
My Squier Joe Trohman Tele also says 'Designed and backed by Fender'. It's one hell of a good guitar, especially now I've put CTS pots in it and got rid of the dark sound it used to have. Neck is to die for. Great jam to start this video guys.
Hey, that intro jam was absolutly incredible wtf!
I recently got back into playing after a 15 yr layoff. I needed a new guitar because my daughter would not return my old acoustic or my Strat knock off.
I was torn 3 ways; wanting another Strat, wanting to try a Tele and only having a $500 budget. I was so close to getting the Squier CV and then I watched Chappers and the Capt's video on the Fender Modern Player (which was new to me). I was sold and Rob summed it up here. It's a Strat that can present a Tele feel and sound and it's built with Fender quality.
Love these videos for the fun and the info.
I have a 2014 Modern Player pretty much exactly like that one and I love it. The variety of sounds I can get from it without any pedals at all is amazing. My only complaint is the knobs. They're pretty, but they don't tell me where I'm set. So I put Strat knobs on it instead. Hey, it's my guitar, I can do what I want with it! ::)
I have the fender in charcoal transparent. It is incredibly versatile. I’ve since upgraded the pickups with a Nocaster Tele, CS Texas Special Strat, and Super Distortion Humbucker. Added stacked volume knobs and replaced the neck with a channelbound Tele with locking tuners. It’s my #1 for sure
14:47 - Lee you probably have the most fantastic feel of any guitarist I've ever watched. You just know EXACTLY what to play at any phrase of the jam. Nothing crazy, nothing ridiculously complex, but ridiculously in sync with Rob's rhythm. Really enjoyed this jam a lot!
Just from watching the video and without actually playing both I'd have to say I like the Fender Modern Player Telecaster best! It sounds and looks awesome. It seems really versatile with more pickups and tonal options. Looks to be more comfortable to play as well with the rounded body and belly carve. Great video and playing! Thanks!
The Fender one here is far removed from what a Tele should be IMO but obviously YMMV. In my opinion, save up and get a Baja. Pound for pound one of the best and most versatile guitars made.
i thank all the guys at Andertons for their reviews that spark interest and all reviews tell me something useful, people who comment on equipement is useful and more interesting to fuel debate,rather than pure negative miserable remarks, many thanks to The Capt, who like us all is interested to improve and inform us ,which adds interest & knowledge!
Maybe it's already been said and I'm not the first person to think of this, but I have an idea about why the Squire is more of a Fender than the Fender seems to be: the Squire is a top-of-the-line, authentic Telecaster whereas Fender was just messing around with new ideas (i.e. the pickups, the bridge, the belly-cut on the back, etc). Squire *was* trying to be Fender and Fender was experimenting. But that's just my two cents.
I always love listening to Rob and Lee jamming together. Sounded beautiful in this video!
4 minutes in and Lee is talking about porn, you know it's going to be a good video

For me, Having played both: The Modern Player is a great salespitch, The Vintage Vibe is what I'd bring to a gig.
That's probably the best intro jam you have done nice work !
I love the little editing flourishes Rory puts in these videos.
Its 3am in California, but its definitely worth the lack of sleep to see one of these videos.

The Captains playing seems to have taken a bit of a leap forward. Sounding great. Have you been practising?
Lee totally killing it with that solo in the opening jam. Excellent stuff.
Rhythm too actually.
Knowing the rig setup especially when comparing guitars would be helpful. Thanks fellas for your vids. Always (mostly) entertaining!
Dearest Squeir, I'm writing this letter..........
… just to confuse my autocorrect … ;op
I've been playing that same Squire Classic Vibe for 10 years. Great guitar!
Any fret work done?
Perhaps Andertons should run a competition to win a guitar, to celebrate 300,000 subscribers ? You might gain more subscribers to get to 500,000 quicker. Congrats on the success of the channel. Competition could be to guess the mystery guitar being played in a few videos.
Chappers you're playing was at its usual greatness and Capt'n I've been watching for years and you're playing gets better and better. You're absolutely awesome. You opening jam was fantastic! Cheers from America
For me that was one of the best opening jams with Rob n Lee since I've been watching the channel, I was just listening in and more than once I had to look back to check who was playing what. I wonder if it's the Telecasters influencing the pair of them with it being that staple of guitar players all over.
and that wasn't a sneaky dis at either of them. Just they were both in the same zone for it.
There was magic happening in this vid. THE JAMS MAN! The jams.......You two were tugging at my heart strings. Cheers lads
fuck me how good is Lee now?! I haven't watched one of their videos for ages and he sounds better than chappers in the beginning there, so much attitude and dynamics in his playing.
I thought exactly the same... You can see in every video how Lee admires Rob's technique, which is outstanding btw. But in this one, I liked much more the way he played the Fender!
I bought the very same style Deluxe Player Tele that the Capt'n is demoing here. I am really glad to finally see it getting some air time from Andertons. I did make two small modifications to the guitar that has made this an exceptional guitar. I left the Strat pickup alone, but I replaced the humbucker and Tele pickups with Dimarzio True Velvets and this thing really sings. It is great for Blues and Jazzy style music but it also has that great humbucker sound for some Classic Rock. It covers just about every style of music I play now. Thanks for showing it off Capt'n!

I like how people complain about Rob's playing being too "straight rock," when he's the presenter between these two that's meant to more represent the rock genre. It's the contrast between his rock style and the Captain's blues style that has made this show so successful for so long. So you're literally complaining about him being exactly what he's supposed to be.
I am amazed by the creativity you guys show by doing the same video in different ways.
I personally really enjoy Rob's playing but I can understand why people are complaining. People who didn't like him could just come to this channel and still get Andertons videos but without Rob, but now thats not really an option anymore.
It doesn't bother me though I like Rob.
Jacob Goodman they don't have to watch every video posted. if they don't like a presenter they can choose not to watch videos eaturing them.
I really liked the fender, the neck just looks beautiful in the gloss finish, I would definitely go for the Fender.
That Classic Vibe sounds F'king incredible!!!!!
Just bought a Squier CV Tele, very similar to the one you`re raving on about Chapper`s, and yes, I totally agree, its utterly Brilliant. now my #1.
So the extra £20 is for the fender logo on the headstock
Fender is warmer and more clear. Most musicians prefer that..., therefore that explains the extra 20? Or it could be a trick on those Squier owners (who can’t afford a fender) who logically think a high end Squier is better than a low end fender?
Yeah. But the fact that it says Squier on it will also hurt the resale value. A lot. As stupid as that is.
@@suba7320 A simple neck replacement could probably fool most people.
@@featheryfemme that would be fraud if you were to sell it on as a fender.
Jupiter James-Reynolds don’t think I said I would.
The best Tone and Jam between them by far. Sounding great
That outro jam was honestly the best I've ever heard from Rob and lee
This was actually "These Days" by Bon Jovi but they took it a whole level up.
That intro jam was awesome! Nothing better than two musicians enjoying playing together.
the captain progresses a lot with his playing imo thats awesome
They had the same fender Tele at the guitar center, and boy, what a thing. It's really something to play, it makes all the right noises, but I agree with Chappers, there's something about it that feels a bit unpleasant. But I love it regardless.
Beautiful playing by the Captain!
Fun video. I love what Fender/Squier is doing with these guitars and love to hear them played like you guys did. Can't believe Rob complained about the neck on a guitar, he played with such finesse. The jamming was on fire.
Dr. G
So... Whats up with this Rob hate lately? The guys is not only a great player, makes amazing songs (Dorje) and has done more for the industry than most guitar players...
most players does that include les paul chet atkins leo fender etc
humphrey peek no. But it does include you and 99.9999% of guitarists
humphrey peek leo fender wasn’t a guitar player
No, I was a bass player, not a guitarist. Common misconception. Thanks for clearing that up Andrei.
I actually really like all the tones in this video, some of my favourite ever. That tends to be the case anytime a tele is played though.
I LOVE ROB'S PLAYING!
My last comment was just a suggestion. If you could do it, I think that a ton of people would love it; hearing the gear in the context of a full band as well as the instruments alone, because a majority of players don't only play alone.
God I think I just fell in love with that Fender... I'm gonna buy it as soon as I can. Fucking hell it sounds amazing!
So, did you actually buy one or were you talking smack? It's been a year now.
I completely agree that these two are where the squire/fender quality starts to cross over. Asides from everything, that last jam was totally emotional and I teared..
That jam was perfection I put it on my toast.
Wow guys that closing jam was probably the most tasteful playing I've heard from you two. That was great. Inspired me a little :)
Am I the only one who really likes how Lee Anderton plays these days? IMO he greatly improved over the last years.
The comments section agrees with you. He's come a long way.
Just got to this, and The Captain is absolutely SLAYING that solo.
Some absolutely sweet sweet guitar playing from both in this video - lovely stuff :)
Lee is so smooth and articulate in his playing it feels so focused. Ooooh man.
ive recently been going through guitars trying to find the right one, including a MIM Fender Tele and a Squier CV 60s custom tele
between the MIM Fender player Tele and the Squier CV 60s Custom......I returned the Fender. This Squier hit the spot the moment it came out of the box (literally came in a fckin cardboard box) and is all around far more satisfying then the Fender player, which I actually for once paid to have set up.
Not that the Fender was bad. The quality was what I'd expect from MIM Player Series but the Squier CV custom tele just feels, plays and looks better than the price suggests. There was an unmistakable bond made the moment I picked the Squier up. I felt like I was having sex with someone I didn't love when I played the MIM fender. The squier makes me feel like I fell head over heels for a cheap whore, shamelessly brought her home to my parents and ended up having her impress everybody
that analogy probably sucks but this Squier doesn't
I rewired my modern player to be middle switch bridge. Switch towards neck for neck pickup. Making the notch position telecaster. Switch towards the heel and you get the middle pickup. Making it a Stratocaster in the notched position. I put an alternative8 in the bridge. And a hot rails in the middle. Both work with the coil split switch. The neck and bridge telecaster style sounds awsome. Re nutted and graphtec saddles. With locking tunners, makes this one of my favorite in the collection.
why all the name calling between us all? why does it always end in acrimony? seems like i posted a comment saying " i prefer beans on toast to beans on there own". within 5 mins someone would swearing and calling names. makes me sad. especially as Rob Chapman is so talented, but because shredding is " marnite". his ability gets ignored.
Peter Latham I just like toast by itself.
Beans on toast is better.
Its "Marmite" you idiot!!!!!1
Why the fuck would you put beans on toast?! Lol
Recently made this choice and went CV Thinline. Was not disappointed it is a great guitar
Holy shit!
Pause at 4:33 and look at Chappers right hand!
Luca Morrissey left hand
Left hand
I lol'd
Im gonna get dinked, arent i?
Definitely agree with the tuning keys. Those Klusons are simple reliable and handy
Jesus Christ!, enough with the complaints on Rob's playing. First of all, all this youtube Andertons thing wouldn't even be a thing without him in the first place. So there's that. But also he has demonstrated that he can be the most tasteful blues player (and other styles) it's just that when he is just having fun he plays whatever he enjoys most. And the guy enjoys shredding. I don't like that, I'm into other stuff, but to say that because of that he is a bad player is quite idiotic.
You did a demo of fender telecasters about 4 years ago where you showcased the custum classic vibe custum Telecaster I went to a local guitar store and tried every fender telecaster in store from made in U.S. to Mexico and China I picked a white classic vibe custum Telecaster. Thanks guys you are very helpful
Would not it be better to compare this squier with a telecaster made in Mexico, with the same pickup configuration?
You really can't go wrong with the classic vibe series. At the price point they are absolutely amazing.
captain has become a really great guitar player, i prefer his playing over chapman in this video
14:30 what a great sound and recording, great video.
Next challenge......the Captain plays standing up!
Holy Jeebus, the intro jam was awesome. Captain rocked out! He's amazing.
I have the Squire Classic Vibe Telecaster. It's great!.
@Luke Robinett I have the CVC Tele Rob plays in the vid. Its 12 Years old and it's one of the batch that's made in China. Literally stays in tune like a dream, intonation is good as can be when it's only a 3 saddle bridge. Get a proper tech to set it up for you and it's fine. I dont know about the new Classic Vibes made in Indonesia as people say the quality has dropped. Try to get a Chinese one as those are the ones that have the reputation
Best solo I've heard yet from the Captain! Great stuff fellas. Still have an old Squier from the 80's and love it!
why does everyone hate rob... i love him
jealousy
cause hes a fuckin asshole he actually owes me 20 bucks
He’s kind of egotistical but that’s about it. People that genuinely don’t like him are blowing everything out of proportion.
I have a modern player in charcoal. Great guitar with lots of tonal options
FAR OUT Captain!!! You play REAL nice. Though I must say the tone of the Fender sounded better for you.
Thanks for another great video. Caps playing has improved a lot over the years (please don't take that as a non-compliment). As always...super fun to watch you two in action.
