Life too short for long KZread videos? Please see the ‘key timings’ information below.
Dan here, hello! In this video I take my Fender Ed O'Brien Sustainer Stratocaster to Johnny Kinkead to get set up. As we find out, a good setup makes all the difference to how the guitar feels in your hands… which makes all the difference to how much you end up playing it!
Johnny takes us through all the main aspects of a guitar setup as we fettle the EOB closer to where I want it to be. Enjoy…

Yep, I agree, I suggest something like a luthier ASMR show. his voice paired with files, drills, metal, wood, chisel, sandpaper. It's not just an opportunity, it's almost a duty to make that show :D

I agree! This man needs his own show. His way of explaining things is unparalleled.
"I want everything to sing." That is such an awesome way to think about guitar fixing. I totally understand why you'd want this man to work on your guitars simply based upon that quote alone.
What a gem of a man. I hope he has an apprentice to carry on his legacy of knowledge into the future.

Johnny Kinkead is literally a national treasure on guitar expertise.
Johnny has turned into a proper star. Night and day from the first VLOG. You should do a "Johnny's tip" once a month.
See, you'd think this would bore a three-year-old boy. But after it he said "more guitar man daddy!" And I totally agree!
He made life make so much more sense with his explanation of intonation. Jonny demystified the whole process for me. Made it natural and logical, NOT mechanical. Cheers.

logical is mechanical.
I also approve of the 'is it time for elevenses now?' mug... always!!
“The more gubbins you put on a guitar ...” such a gentle burn from a top chap. More of this!
as i get older i appreciate more and more someone teaching me something especially about guitars thanks very much
This man is a national treasure.
I am guessing that Paul Reed Smith’s head would explode at Johnny Kinkead’s approach to intonation.
On intonation.. "You just as well do it by ear". What an absolutely wonderful man, I sat glued the whole episode..
Didn't know how much I didn't know about truss rods.
We need to see him work his magic on a Gibson Les Paul as well. The fret polishing with steel wool & oil for the rosewood board was something new for me. Its a real pleasure listening to him & please Dan make this a regular segment on your channel maybe like "Tips from Jonny".

I'm a bit away from Bristol but I'd drive down and drop off the guitar. I've just bought a Gibson LP that needs a set up.

What a treasure! Jonny is such a gentle and humble man. Thanks, Dan for introducing us to him.
What a fabulous chap he is.
Daniel Steinhardt I genuinely don't think I've heard you play better than that little section at the end of this vid. Just beautiful note choice and feel man!! Had moments of Joey Landreth about it (obviously sans slide). The inspiration of a beautifully set up guitar.

What a great chat and lesson, thanks for sharing Mr. Kinkead.
What a legend to share his amazing skills.
What a pleasure to watch Johnny work, and he explains everything in such great detail too!
That's one of the most informative and nice to watch episodes on KZread I have seen in a long time! Thanks your sirs.
I wish Sir Jon could work on all of my guitars. Unfortunately, I would have to ship them all from the USA. Wonderful craftsman and very informative. Thanks to Dan and Jonny
I love looking at this man’s work! And the voice complements this, it’s soooo relaxing
Just watched this again and learned even more. Jonny is a national treasure and so easy to listen to with his quiet but authoritative delivery. Just Brilliant.
Brilliant work by Johnny. So cool to watch him work and talk through everything. Straight Fire! Thanks.
This was an education - I feel privileged to be able to learn from such a great teacher.
Thoroughly enjoying these videos. Both of you doing a fantastic job and hope to see many many more 👍. Learning a lot from Jonny 👌
The best set up video I've seen. Very detailed with good explanations.
An inspirational hour of very musical, laid back perfectionism! Johnny puts the hum in humble. Thank you!
My goodness. Masterclass. Learned so much from this video.
I learn so much from TPS! Thank you so much Dan and Mick! Keep up the good work.
Great episode Dan! Thoroughly enjoyed watching him setup and fix guitars. He’s a genius!
This show is an always a great education, and FairPlay to Johnny! Great addition to the channel, he is such a fountain of knowledge and such a relaxing character too! Thank you lads!
What a fabulous and charming chap. Brilliant!! A joy to look and learn. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
What I love about shadowing a master (thats exactly what this is) is you get to cover all three levels of knowledge. The three level of knowledge: what we know, what we don't know, and what we don't know we don't know.
Love it. I could listen to Jonny for hours on end.
Lots of fantastic knowledge and experience given free of charge! Top man!
Man what a great show. Great to be able to watch a real craftsman . Thoroughly enjoyable and informative.
I am grateful indeed. I truly love these videos. Thank you!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise.
Dan, thanks so much for posting this! I could listen to Jonny talk shop about guitars all day! Super informative since I’m learning to set up my own guitars.
Jonny is amazing a wonderful and wise craftsman I learned a lot from this video.
What a lovely humble chap
This is absolutely fantastic. Master luthier and master teacher. Thank you so much for demystifying the whole set up process.
I came back to watch this after the acoustic build vlog. Could watch this all day long!
I really love "That Pedal Show" ! Thanks for all you matea do. Blues On....
That's a guitar builders setup masterclass. One of the most enjoyable videos I watched in the past years. Cheers!
What a treasure that man is! Please have him on again. 👏👏👏👏 ❤️
I absolutely love watching this Gentleman show and explain his craft
Best series on KZread!
Such a pleasure to watch a master at work.
Love Love Love ,This luthier he does need his own show. love to spend the day just hanging in his wonderful shop
What a real gent. Always full of useful info gained by experience and genuinely humble. Bet his guitars sound awesome 😀
These videos are awesome. Love the inside knowledge that you can really only get through that level of experience.
I wish I had a Jonny Kinkead in my town!! Great setup and excellent laid back teacher...Cheers!
Dan and Mick I love your show. Thanks so much for this video with Jonny Kinkead. What a gentleman and a treasure of knowledge. This episode is a true diamond in the gemstones of That Pedal Show!
What a lovely, informative, soothing vlog. Jonny K is a master, and yet I feel better able to take on everyday adjustments from watching him rather than more intimidated. Brilliant fellow. Brilliant fellow to Dan too. ❤️
Best layman's explanation of how a truss rod works I've ever seen. Well done, Jonny!
I've been slowly learning how to do my own setups for awhile now and I've learned a ton from watching these videos with Jonny! I'd love to see more with him!
True craftsman and luthier! So much care!
What a wealth of information Jonny is. I could listen to him all day. Top bloke.
Lovin’ this cat. Nothing like someone who is totally into his or craft. A real pleasure watching, listening and learning. Great job👍
Phenomenal episode, Dan and Jonny. What an informative hour! Jonny and Dan: you're great teachers. I really appreciate Dan's thoughtful questions, and Jonny's patient, well-reasoned, sagacious answers. What a masterclass. Keep up the good work.
Best TPS video EVER!
Absolutely brilliant. Thank you to Jonny for sharing his knowledge, and thanks to TPS for producing and sharing this bit of KZread treasure. Every guitar player should watch this multiple times.
Agree on own show! Educational and informative - presented in a clear and engaging way! Thank you both for doing this!
Took me decades to learn the information in this one hour video. Wow, what a great show
This is why I watch you tube, Jonny took his time and used good sense. Thanks.
I LOVE THESE VIDEOS! Thank you Dan!
I want to play this video on repeat so that I can absorb all of its genuine knowledge, talent and skill into my being. Absolutely fantastic work! TPS has to be one of the best channels on the tube.
Absolutely FANTASTIC! So much good information and Jonny is natural and funny. Plus, Dan you are one of the tastiest players I know, luv’ ya tone and your way of thinking guitar. Thanks a lot and cheers mate!
I love this man with my whole heart. What a master of his craft. His knowledge is arresting and kept my attention for the full hour. I love how varied your videos are and how the entire breadth of what it means to be a guitar enthusiast is represented on your channel. You guys are my favorite show on any medium. Now, let’s get some Jazzmaster and Jaguar coverage. 😉
What a delight! What a master. Thank you!!
this is the best clearly enunciated and demonstrated working version of intonation I've seen as well as truss rod adjustment. Brilliant... I agree... more please
Jonny is such a lovely bloke, fortunate enough to have had a couple of guitars built by him and it’s such a pleasure to spend time with him.
This is just sooooo great to watch. So inspirational and relaxing meditation. Believe it or not, but sitting here and watching makes me wonder about life and what it means to be alive and happy :-) And you Dan - you are just so calm, curious and enthusiastic and great to “interview” and get the best out of the people you are with. Ommmmmmmmmm
What a great show!! Just lovely Jonny your awesome!
Absolutely brilliant. I could watch more hours of these videos.
Awesome stuff Dan - Jonny is a true master...
This is such an informative video. Mr. Kinkead explains things so clearly and concisely he makes it easy to understand what he's doing and why. I've been playing for over thirty years and I've learned a great deal from the two videos he's appeared in. I'm so impressed by the depth of his knowledge and his willingness to share it with us all.
Even though I know I am very familiar with everything he is discussing and going over. It is still great to watch. A good refresher. Thank you Dan and thank you Johnny.
Once again I am astounded at the attention to detail and the conscientious way in which Mr. Jonny handles his business. He's an astounding teacher and extremely interesting. Thank you guys for sharing some more of his work with us.
So I have watched the "Re-fret" video (all of it) and now this one, and I must say that I could listen to Johnny teach me about how guitars work all day long. So cool. So much information and such a depth of knowledge. I would welcome any and all future Johnny videos. Thanks fellas!
Thank you for doing the two videos and Q & A with Jonny. This has increased my knowledge of the setup and refretting process 10,000%. It also demonstrates the importance of finding and supporting a good, local luthier. Keep up the good work. Cheers.
I would love to be this mans appreciate. I love when you guys feature him ❤️
Jonny episodes have become my absolute favorites!

I don't know what that was that you played towards the end but it was probably the most beautiful thing I've ever heard. Also I can listen to Jonny talk all day and never get tired of it. Great video!
Again, a pleasure to watch.
Hi Dan, What an amazing Video, watching and listening to a Master Luthier. The Smallest adjustment can make a Huge difference! Thank you for sharing your experience, just Brilliant, Love the Strat Dan! 👍👍👍. Take care Mate. Melbourne, Australia
absolutely love these videos. This could be 3 hrs and I’d watch every second.
Just great. Keep em coming!
Great explanations! So informative and sensitive, and sensible! Happy to hear for the first time confirmation about that intonation adjustment by ear with the 19th fret harmonic. And all the rest is pure love. Thanks !
Best setup vid I've ever seen. Thank you for this. And especially coz I'm getting this exact guitar :)
This video was great!!! Thanks for sharing.
Loving these vlogs with Jonny Kinkead, priceless knowledge and seems like such a good guy. Cheers Dan & Jonny. Also, if Ed O’Brien gave me a bag of crisps I'd wake up smiling everyday, he gave you a guitar! too cool.
Love this guy! More of this please!
