Jen singing is the best moment for me in the 2 years I have watched this show! Love you both! Kick ass job!

10 seconds into Mark playing it and I was like "yeah, it's gone"

Had an opportunity to visit the Mecca known as Norman’s Rare Guitars today. Was able to meet Mark, Jen and Norm! What a gracious and wonderful group of people, they made me, a nobody, feel not only welcome but appreciated. I always read about how Norm only speaks to the stars and big spenders and let me say that certainly wasn’t my experience as he was friendly and very approachable. Mark and Jen were both beyond nice. Thank you both for talking to and spending so much time with me. Mark, thanks for the gig bag for my new p bass! Go Norm’s!!!!

Dope to know man thanks for sharing

Mark's reaction to Jen singing is priceless.

Fantastic Strat. The tone is superb.the color is close to Clapton’s Brownie Strat. The wood grain is beyond fantastic.

Jen sounds so cute with her , "Para bailar la Bamba!"

She certainly does! Come on, Jen, more vocals, please! :-)

The wear on the fretboard lines up with La Bamba perfectly... Like thats what was played on it forever..

Possibly the sweetest neck pickup you're ever likely to hear. Just perfect.

Nothing like seeing an old friend after a few years and hanging out together- Luv It!

Even though mark is gone this will probably be my favorite episode just because of how well he played Lenny, good luck Michael

That Strat was just to beautiful and if that was Jen singing, I have died and gone to heaven. Love you guys.

Sweet jesus, I just keep coming back to this video

I hope a player buys this Strat and plays it for years, rather than it doing the trader circuit with an ever higher price. Vintage guitar prices are crazy but that's what people are paying to collect some music history. Sure, i could build a parts one and it would be good. I could also build a Ford Model T, but it will never be the real deal. Where I think it gets obnoxious with guitar pricing is the aged stuff coming from Fender and Gibson's CS lines that are several times the price of the base model. I prefer to just buy the base model used and play it lots to age it. Seems more legit to me and is more friendly on the wallet. What i really want though is a place with no neighbors and a barn that i know i can stay at for over a decade so i can have a dog I never have to re-home and Marshall stacks etc next to my vodka still and all that. A place people can come stay for an affordable fee and rehearse/record/relax.

Wow I don’t usually comment but that strat sounds angelic

Many thanks Mark and Jen for creating and posting this series. I watch and enjoy every episode and have picked up a few playing tips along the way. Keep up the good work!

I'm freaking out! WOW!

It’s good to come back to watch guitar of the week my mom have brain cancer but doing well and you have a Stratocaster I love Stratocaster

WOW !

That was as beautiful of a Strat as you have ever had, wow! Mark, I can tell you love to play in each video!

That was the tone of a generation. Perfect !!!

“I could put this much wear on this guitar in a weekend” LOL! No shit- especially with the evil relic-ing jacket on. This made me go back and watch a few of the old GODs- Mark has gotten a lot looser on-cam, and the negative comments on how he treats the guitars have really tapered off. One early commenter even bitched about how hard he picked! I always get my daily dose of the show, even if I cringe now and then- keep ‘em coming guys, thanks

Great Show, Mark and Jen ! What an awesome guitar ! What in the World would we do without Freakin' Straturday ! ! !

Never heard a 50's Strat with so little wear that sounded that good. That is a great Strat.

I totally, absolutely, definitely, without any reservations whatsoever, FUCKING LOVE IT.

Sounds amazing, you can feel the life that guitar has had with every tone. Someday, someday I will have something like this.

I don’t often comment on KZread videos but this might be the most beautiful guitar I’ve ever seen on this channel.

You're right, it doesn't get much better than that. Love the way SRV sounds on that guitar. Thanks again Mark and Jen! Byeeeeeee!

Now that is what I call an episode of Guitar of the Day! Best of all we got to hear the guitar with its clean tone instead of hearing it overdriven. You can always crank your amp or add a pedal but what I always want is to hear the clean tone. If I like that I know I will also like it after I have pushed it. And what an Incredible tone on all 3 pickups! Best GOTD since the Broadcaster back in August,

Yeah, it's easier to tell how a guitar will sound distorted from its clean tone than how it will sound clean from its distorted tone

Wow! I'm drooling! It sounds every bit as good as it looks.

holy fuck. first note you plucked on that thing gave me shivers. that is an amazing instrument. truly a piece of working art

That's a treasure. Love the finish and the sound. Classic.

Relic. Absolutely gorgeous. Loved the Lenny.

That right there is the iconic tone-- totally loving it!

Beautiful.

Beautiful Strat and great playing as always.

Just amazing. The tones from yesterday are back!

'drooling'...unbelievable!

Fantastic!

Prodigal son came home. For a bit at least. Nice strat, loved Jen's vocals.

Great show with something so so special, well done you two ,nailed it again.from the uk.

Welcome back home strat 🎸 one cool guitar there fender guys. Thanks Mark ✌️ thanks again Jen 💐

That sound gets you hooked... glorious 🤟🏾

That tone...ooh. Very nice.

Wow! Just so sweet

Sounds truly ...Amazing......

I’m a Tele guy but damn this one fine piece of ash. I finished watching the video then started to watch another and I can’t stop picturing that beauty. Love the ash body strats

I have a 55 strat. Once owned by Kenny Loggins before he was a name. He lived in Sierra Madre and sold it to one of my brothers friend who sold it to me over 40 years ago. Ive been playing it since I was 19 years old. I let other people play it and they love it. I tell them an old guitar is all I could afford. So cool to see one at Norman's.

WoW what a beauty

Effen amazing 😮 Stratocaster!!!! Simply perfect 👌

THAT SOUND OML😍 what a beaut!

It sounds sooooooo good!

Damn Mark! Thanks for showing us this again. Such a beautiful guitar.

OMG!!!! One of the BEST GOTD!!!! thanx Mark.

Awesome!!

I can dig it.

Great playing

Drooling over that one what a sweet guitar !

Oh yeah! And it looks like you have fun playing it

That '55 Strat is a stunner! The three songs were perfect to show how each of the pickups sound. There is some merit to the 3-way switch. I know the 5-way is more versatile and that is how my Squier strat is set up, but this is absolute classic strat tone. I like Les Pauls and humbuckers, too but, in my opinion, this is what a guitar should sound like. Thank you Mark and Jen, this made my Straturday. Thanks to Norm for buying these guitars and sharing them with all of us. You guys make us feel like we are a part of this thing. Is there anything better than a classic, vintage guitar? The answer is, " No!"

Love this one, one of my favourites!! 🔥💥

Wow that guitar sounds awesome. And they playing helps too!

This is easily the most beautiful 50‘s ash body, maple board Strat I have ever seen. Gruhn guitars had a 1954 Strat that rivals this one with a lightly flamed neck. Lovely!

4:25 jen 😂🤣😍

There were 3 guitars that lit me up during the latest load out. 2 '50s Strats and a '55 LP Jr. Seeing this 55 and the story blows me away.

That finish is unbelievable.

amazing story! awesome guitar!

Just awesome!! Thanks for the Elliot Easton tribute...

Soooooo SICK!! Im going to get a ‘50’s american original just like that. I knew youd play little wing or lenny

that is a thing of beauty and sounds like liquid silk

What an incredible strat

That thing is awesome man you sounded awesome !we should all own one

Wow 😯

Love the cars bit made me try and learn it

Heavenly strat tone !

Awesome Guitar.

That got the blood flowing. What a way to end it and great way to start my day.

Guitargasm!!!

Awsome 🎼

How cool is that ?! It returns and is still gorgeous ! :-) ( One piece of ash !)

Oh man best GOTD in a while! Can't wait for the black guard on Tuesday.

That guitar sounds great!!

The surprise in Mark's eyes when jen started singing :D

I like Mark Agnesi as the host of Norman's Rare Guitars.

Awesome old guitar

Holy shit. What a story. Love it

I saw Mark tell this story in the store! They had all these guitars just in from the Dallas guitar show. These guys are super nice and accommodating. Too bad I live in Arkansas.
