Legit conversation I had with the 3 guitar guys in my hometown's largest guitar store. They unanimously said that the most impressive guitarist that they had ever seen in the store was this guy who just walked in one day and played the sweetest simplest little licks, but with so much soul that their jaws dropped. Turns out he was Jackson Brown's lead guitarist and they were doing a show that night. Let that sink in, the most jaded guitar shop guys were most impressed by soulful simplicity.
@@bryanh3057 riiiight. Ya no, I was part of this guitar group. And they'd have a night where everyone would post what they been working on, and 80% of what was posted was just noodling to youtube backing tracks, which would be fine if they all didn't have that generic blues "play with feel" sound to it. It's good to mix it up, cause that simple pentatonic blues just gets sooooo old. Every video would start with the same bend 😂 then 4 notes on the pentatonic
Was in my tiny local shop, two guys walked in, grabbed two ESPs and proceeded to play the entire “Welcome Home (Sanitarium)” matching James and Kirks’ tone PERFECTLY. They then bough the amps they were testing out and left. Another guitar shop story, Mike the son of the owner and the resident instrument tech (he could fix anything, even accordions because that was the shop’s first instruments back in the day) was demoing a wireless system for someone, who couldn’t believe how far the range was. Mike grabbed a red strat, plugged in the wireless transceiver, started playing and walked out the door and down the street. He made it a whole block and a half, no problem(and he made a sale)!
You know you've made it when your practice room resembles a guitar store and you no longer have to go to actual guitar stores to make guitar-store-related skits! Congrats on all the success! :D
@@sirspongadoodle Welcome to TH-cam. I think the main reason Tyler gets so much flack for this is unlike sponsorships on most other TH-camrs it's pretty easy for him to turn it into a entire video or at least use whatever gear he's sponsoring throughout. He could tone it down when he does it, but I don't blame him for it. People also think he's sponsored by a lot more than he is just because he happens to like certain brands, gear, etc.
Played Frame by Frame once while waiting at G-Center, the manager walked over and thanked me and said they don’t hear much King Crimson. It must have been a particularly rough day of not quite entering Sandman.

I work in a guitar store and I can confirm, at least at my store, that Stairway is no longer forbidden. But got dangit if I hear the opening riff to slow dancing in a burning room one more time I may actually light the building on fire and bust a move into eternity.

“Limo Wreck” is one of my absolute favorite Soundgarden cuts…so good that I included it in an assignment for a high school literature/poetry class regarding songs with my favorite lyrics.
Sometimes the riffs you play at guitar shops don't even need to be impressive to just start up wholesome conversations about music. I took my guitar in to the tech to get it set up for 12-56's so I could play easier in b Standard. When the tech gave me my guitar I plugged into an orange and played Electric Wizard for about 5 minutes before the dude working there came over and struck up a convo about Wizard. He was a cool guy, loved doom. We spoke for a while and I ended up buying a JHS fuzz pedal while I was there on his recommendation. We're all in there because we love music, I forget that sometimes under all the gear and nerves of playing in front of the staff.
My jaw dropped when you mentioned Limo Wreck. I learned that song top to bottom including the solo. I'm a huge Soundgarden fan, it made my night. Soundgarden has so many great songs, if you're reading this and only have listened to thier handful of popular songs you're missing out.
Same!!! Learned all of ‘Superunkown’ and ‘Down on the upside’back in sophomore year in high school. Saw them back in 2017 in Jacksonville FL I think weeks before Chris passed. Guys around me were shocked I was singing along to ‘Kyle Petty son of Richard’ lmao. I’m hard pressed to find anyone who knows of Soundgarden lately. Their b-sides are hit or miss. RIP Chris Cornell
Soundgarden is one of my favorite bands and Limo Wreck is one of my favorite songs by then and I am blown away that it was in a video by a major TH-camr..... Last song I ever expected to hear. Amazing
I played Say Hello 2 Heaven on a used AC30 in a guitar store once and the guy working there said "Is that Temple of the Dog? Cool." Kept me going for awhile
I walked in to a music store here in Dublin a few years ago, and someone was playing the fast section of King Crimson’s “Fracture” on guitar. A nice change, that was.

I was a big fan of Mailman,4th of July, and Like Suicide from Superunknown. It's nice just to hear someone reference one of the not singles from that album.
Ive played guitar for 4 years, and ive watched this channel every since i started playing, and always dreamt of being as good as this guy, and seeing him play Get Lucky, which is one of my go to songs, makes me feel a lot of improvement has happened in the time ive played.
Great work Tyler! Awesome video. I've been following your channel for a little more than a year and I have learned so much from your videos, every time I watch your channel it makes me want to practice more and get better at guitar. Keep up the great work Tyler!
I've heard you've been having issues in the form of hostilities while trying to play "Stairways to Heaven" in guitar stores. Here are some suggestions on how to play the riff in guitar stores without the store owner getting too suspicious. 1. Assuming you are in a key of A minor. With the C key raised to C# start by playing "Hotel California" and when the coast is clear, swap out the C# key with the C key and then play the forbidden riff while at all times observing the guitar store owner incase you have to quickly switch C back to C#. 2. Just play the song backwards, by the time the store owner realizes what is happening, you would have already finished or started. 3. Playing "Stairways to Heaven" in a store where you already tried suggestion 1 should also be possible. Assuming you are in a key of A minor with the C key tuned to C#. As not to raise any suspicions with the guitar owner, you should be able to do the same trick mentioned in suggestion 1 but this time start with "Humpty Dumpty" and when the coast is clear you should easily be able to switch to the forbidden riff by lowering the C# key by a semi tone. I'm sure you can come up with better tactics. Good luck with playing the forbidden riff.
Hey tyler just got a yearly plan for guitar super system and i am impressed the layout is very manageable and the curriculum has lots of lessons that i will actually use. Props for making a wonderful way of learning guitar. 🎸
Great job with the Larry character. Using the dark light, then he flips and wants to jam. It had a Stephen King feel for a quick moment. Great use of character development and story.
Again - I am so ****ing stoked I found your page. Not only are you a gangster on guitar, but your videos always make me laugh and smile. Kick ass - thank you!
Other day I was in Samash playing some John Mayer slow dancing in a burning room and someone across the store started soloing over top of it. We’re friends now :)
No homo bro but I lowkey click on on your videos to just watch and listen to you play. You actually inspire and motivate me pick up my guitar and keep practicing to get better everday. Im deff thinking of joining GSS very soon so keep it up man!
I once played a section of “Discipline” by King Crimson in a shop. It was not the cleanest rendition but I got a compliment and a 10 minute conversation out of it.

That opener solo you played when you kicked into Crazy Train used to give me so much grief when I was a kid. I practiced it for hours trying to get each note nice and smooth. P.S. I love that old blue Strat.

What riff would grab your attention if you heard someone playing it?
Iron maiden run for the hills or someone play california love by 2 pac as never heard it played on guitar
Anything by early Genesis / Steve Hackett.
Wonderwall - but my attention would be dissaproving
Probably anything sabaton related

@I M they didn't give his name or when it happened. Should have asked, but was more focused on the new guitar I had bought.
Sounds like some boomer shit to say idk
Depends, you can have soul and you can have overusing the pentatonic scale “soul”
Nailed it. All that other crap gets super obnoxious super quick.

That Crimson riff, the mood it sets when the bass comes in is just that classic feel. Love it.
Yeah, same. I'm not a King Crimson fan, but that riff was something else
You can really hear the influence that would later become Tool huh? That syncopated, clean, repetitive nature defines their music.

Would you put this into a video? I would be very interested in watching it
I'm sure you feel it as much as we do....but each video is better than the last, ty for the inspirational guitar vids
The 4 horseman is the first song i ever learned in full, and I still play it all the time at guitars stores and at home

This was better than an actual sitcom! You're a genius!
Great job with the Larry character. Using the dark light, then he flips and wants to jam. It had a Stephen King feel for a quick moment. Great use of character development and story.
