It's how I found out about Synergy long before the hype hit. Bro was already doing it well and they agreed to be smart and share instead of fight about it. Pretty ballsy to make clones of all your peers' preamps and match em up to your power section using a modular chassis in a very approachable form factor. You used to be able to buy a blank chassis to put your own preamp in so you could use it just like any other module he'd built for the platform that became Synergy we see now.

The second half of Money was played on David Gilmour’s Lewis guitar with 24 frets. BTW a Music City Savvy bridge went on my 2001 Junior yesterday……a revelation! Would never have happened without Uncle Larry. Thanks!

Billie Joe was playing an hss strat copy all through the 90’s. He switched to the jr in the early 2000’s

The neighborhood in Queens that Waddy and Leslie are from is called Forest Hills. Other big names in rock came from that town: Simon and Garfunkel Al Kooper Bassist Harvey Brooks (Dylan, Butterfield, Electric Flag, Doors) The Ramones

Good Lord, Don Barnes from 38 Special. He’s played the same 59 Les Paul Jr. for most of his career…and he Rocks it with the absolute best of them.

You never cease to amaze me! One of the most entertaining videos I’ve ever watched. Thanks Tom!

So damn enjoyable taking this all in…loved it.

Thanks for this guys. Absolutely love these. Bought that '55 Tele because of Volume 2.

For anyone wanting to know, Gilmour used a Bill Lewis Custom guitar on the money solo. 👍 24 fret guitar.

Love the Gruhn vids so much, so much gold. The amount of tone a good player can pull from a single p90 never ceases to amaze me. That red double cut was it

These are the best! Hilarious as ever ❤

I love these Gruhn's videos. The fake delay was incredible and hilarious. That could fool anyone Tom!

@@stringlocker My ear is pretty accurate, but I was the happiest guy in the world when I got my Rhodes keyboard because all the guys in the band would tune to that. Can't tell you how many times we started to practice and someone had learned all their parts out of tune, that's when I learned to chart so at least we were all playing the same thing. Funny how much changed with such a simple device. No more 30 minute tuning sessions just to get everyone in the same key. Even the drummer started using a tuner to adjust his drums for relative tuning.

I experienced something like that. The band finally got tuners. I said this is going to be wonderful 123 what the fuck sounds like shit. I said is everybody on the tuner the bass players said no. So again I said WTF. He said he didn't trust the tuner he trusts his ear more so another fight ensued. I was so happy to give up the band thing. I've only had two tuners in 40 years. That was one thing I was always careful with. I was afraid they would stop making them.

Thank you so much for patiently letting things go to the last moment for the sake of this Tom, it was the NICEST way to spend an afternoon listening! And man, I was blown away as you kept playing cooler and cooler stuff! Thank you for giving us a glimpse of all the people and things you love so much! Jonathan

What a life Tom. Great stuff.

Oh man, what a blast. The Delay thing.... just blew my mind, seriously, how in hell did you came across that uncle Larry? Another brick in the wall intro.. just perfectly nailed. To most people, if they listen to that, they wouldn't have a clue that is just a guy with huge imagination and skill. really amazing. In the other hand not only the guys, but when Mr. Gruhn arrives, I'm sure we are all excited about what he has to say. The man is truly a legend and this channel is getting only better with these Gruhn visits section. Really candy for us guitar lovers.

I love these chats...cool bunch of guys

Really dig this one Tom. My dad was tour coordinator on Mountain's last tour with Felix in 1974. Leslie West was always asking dad about his country friends like Junior Bryant and Jerry Reed. He was the king of heavy tone but loved country pickers. Not many know that. Hey Ebo , been a while man! Good to see you.

Damn Tom these are my favorites! Not just geek talk George is the authority of this stuff…and talking with real techs that work for George is cool as hell!!!

Hey, Maestro. I don't comment much but I watch a lot! I miss hangin' at 2nd Gear, now a lost mini-era! FWIW, I think the first single cut Junior you played was the best sounding although the second had the not-so-loud thing and might have hidden charms. The best one I EVER had was a 1960 TV double cut with a big neck. Intonated stock with the treble side screw all the way out. Those old bridges had a ping and a ring to them but that was the only one I ever had that intonated stock. I have the Buk/Joe on both my 1-P-90 guitars at present. Rock on. WW

Great conversation. George has some fascinating insights. Thanks for sharing! Ps. Tom needs a deal on that double cut!

"...its all he ever played".....Strat for years, Dookie era

The discussion about the originality of vintage instruments hit close to home. Back in the early 2000s, I bought a '77 fretless blank plank maple board P Bass that looked _really_ close to the same bass played by Stanley Sheldon on _Frampton Comes Alive!_ … This was purchased from a well-known guitar shop in Tokyo for a price that clearly indicated it was a 100% original instrument. Fast forward to earlier this year. I took the bass to a popular Tokyo shop to sell and they detailed all the reasons why the bass only had a verifiable '77 neck and the rest of the bass was of unknown vintage. My takeaway: Don't trust big name stores. If I ever buy a vintage instrument again -- rather unlikely at this point -- only specialist places such as Gruhn's are to be trusted. It was a very expensive lesson to learn. [Edit to add: That double cut sounded glorious. Have never owned a DC Junior and really want one. 🥰]

“That’s like finding out after 20 years that your wife’s eyes are brown”. Absolute gold comment.

"check it out, this is my fake echo I've been workin on it for years" favorite line and always fun to see someone exercise extreme dynamics control - the first time I realized dynamics in a bar setting was this one drummer warming up, I thought he had mutes on because he was swinging and moving but no, it was simply outlandish control... Seems like the start of some sort of joke: "four tone monsters walk into a room with four tone monsters on the table" lol

And it kicked off with a bit of last name etymology - I love a good bit of etymology!

The bogner sounds killer!

17:35 sweet Danny Huff surprisingly often! Money run on Giant - Time burn solo, on a 21 feet strato too!

My old ears couldn’t hear any of the dialogue. Toms playing however speaks volumes. 😊

I brought my les paul junior Billy Joe Armstrong signature to 30th street guitars for a setup, And they had the most beautiful 57 LP junior on the wall, Personally I could never justify a purchase like that, But, Man that guitar sure has the mojo! And I'm sure uncle Larry would make it sing!

Uncle Larry, some classy pedal maker needs to make the "Buko Bucket Brigade Delay". That is just amazing. And thanks for these visits with your crew at Gruhn's. One of my all time dreams before i leave this mortal coil is to spend a day at Gruhn's and try not to drool all over myself. Thanks for putting us at the table.

man that delay trick is kicked man!

Great episode Uncle Larry, thanks. You were looking for a title in the beginning. How about “Nerd Round Table”?

Funny, Marshshall!

Hey Tom - what a great conversation. Thanks for sharing! If I could ask George Gruhn one question, it would be this: does he know of any Martin D18s from mid-70s that were made with D45-style inlay ("hexagon" markers and the C-F-Martin vertical inlaid in headstock)? I owned one, bought it used around 1975, and it was stolen around summer '77. (The insurance money bought me a Mossman Tennessee Flattop, which I still have.) I do miss that Martin still, and have never seen or heard of another one like it. I wonder if George has?
