+CaptAnderton What about most unusual/different sounding/unique but still good sounding rig for a certain price point. It seems like a lot of your challenges involve really going for a rock/metal or a blues/rock tone. It'd be cool to see where you guys'd go if you had to get something really different. Kinda the opposite of the 'inappropriate sounds' thing you were talking about.

Is it just me or does is Captain's rig sound better at blues than Capper's does at metal lol. I don't really like the sound Chappers got

Absolutely!!! Who gets the best blues tone from a BC Rich Warlock/Gunslinger running through the most basic of line 6 amps on the floor.

Very entertaining although i don't think i'm going to walk into guitar stores blind from now on, mainly for health and safety reasons. Rob actually got really lucky with his rig, but his endtone didn't really float my boat. Differtent strokes for different folkes i guess ;)

Yess, the challenges are back!

Now imagine Rob picking that Vox. It would be the best sound demo ever.

i would be very scared to let someone walk around a music shop that has stuff worth hundreds and thousands with a blindfold

That was a clever and very nice way to promote your business. Bravo e paraculo :)

I love this channel.. it is like "top gear meets guitars" , and surely one the best channel in music category in KZread

+Rob Chapman I have a challenge for you! This morning, I was really bored and couldn't sleep (right now it's 2:40AM) and I had a pair of leather work gloves next to my desk... I think you know what I'm gonna say: Play a guitar with thick leather work gloves on!

The sound that the captain gets at 28:42 sounds absolutely incredible. Les Paul Custom is definitely on my wish list!

Those jams keep getting better and better!

That was an amazing jam at the end. Thank You!

lmao when lee almost grabbed a 7 string for blues...

About 21 mins in, I'm thinking: Rob's guitar sounds real Sabbath-y. Then I remember how 20 mins ago.. he ended up with an Iomi amp... hahaha. Guess they nailed it with that amp;-)

Oh my god, that was some sweet ass Captain solo at the end there....

Captain wins. Metal tone wasn't quite there.

Damn that last jam was a thing of beauty. I instantly rewound and played it again. And Lee, you won that challenge hands down.

This is way better than any rerun on network TV. Hilarious and informative - I'm sort of sad I missed these for so many years - on the upside - I've got a hold catalog of great laughs to look forward to. Well done gentlemen.

Really love these store / rig videos. Glad you did another and hope you keep more coming.

CHAPPERS WAS SO CLOSE TO THE TUBE SCREAMER

I just love these challenges keep up good work

love these challenge videos!

great video, amazing jam at the end. merry Christmas!

Super good times, guys. Really good idea and a fun time. Rock on.

You guys are the best. I look forward to seeing both of your ideas for future pointless videos!

Wow! I really enjoyed that jam at the end. Felt more soulful than usual.

These are my favorite kind of vids you guys do

One of your best guys! Happy Christmas 😀🎸🎸

Some awesome sounds!

love the jam sessions you two get into in these vids. can't wait for the next one =D

Thanks for all the great vids and playing, Merry Christmas and Happy New Years to you all.

It's that time of year again!

I fucking love these types of videos, keep up the great work!

such a badass jam

Awesome video guys. Merry Christmas to you both and to your families. Peace

Been loving these videos today on Christmas day 2019. Actually been binging ALL day long 🎸🎅🎄

loved this video, great to see you doing more challenges🎸

I love the challanges!

Really enjoyed watching that. Thanks guys and Happy Christmas :)

+CaptAnderton has gotten so good with the soloing. Big jump in overall playing. Really great to see and hear.

It's the Blues rig for me. Big win for the Captain!

Best tone of the video: That Paul into The Captain's rig! Also YES do both of those other video ideas you mentioned.

Oh man, made me clinch so hard seeing Rob stumbling around near the wall of Paul.

Next time you need to set the knobs on guitars, amps, and pedals with the blindfold on as well.

I really liked that EVH. For $1000 that thing sounded sweet and you both seemed to like the way it played.

This is like the older goofy Rob and the Captn....LOVED IT!!

Watching Chappers wander blindly with so many high end Gibby's at his feet had me holding my breath. You have an amazing store Captain! I'd love to be able to fly across the ocean just to visit Andertons! Merry Christmas fellas, thank you for all the great videos and entertainment you have made over the years. By far my favorite on KZread.

This is pretty much Top Gear for guitarists. LOVE IT!!!

That was really great, guys! Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays!

That Charlie Browne was unbelievable on his Van Halen im seriously thinking of purchasing one myself thanks for the support!!

Rob and Capt seem to be able to read my wants and desires. Last time it was the Revstar then after watching 3 blindfold videos yesterday, today another is here.

super fun!! of all the trillions of content that's available via web, I seek you all - cuz you always make me laugh and bring joy to my life - keep it up, please

these dudes absolutely hit the pub before these shoots. very entertaining.

I've owned a musicman axis for 15 years - best sound ever for me. Great jam at end as always.

I love the vids where you guys get gear in the store

Lee... you've come a long way as a guitarist. I love your style.

I really liked the jam at the end! Just so bluesy juicy tones when the guitars were switched! And man those bends and double stops Lee played (starting at 28:46), they must be one of the guitar highlights of the year for me!

Great video as usual. You allready convinced me a year ago I needed i JTM145 which is a truly great amp. Now I realized I also need a Charlie Brown.

Sweet bonus jam dudes.

I looked away from the screen for a while at the end and I could have sworn it was Chappers soloing, but it was the Captain! You've become an incredible player, man! Gives me hope for my own skill progression.

Captain's really cooking it at the end.

Y'all ought to do this more often!

That Wolfgang and Lanny sure sounded great together!

great video!

I miss these kinds of videos..... *becomes nostalgic*

More challenges like this. They're great.

I would have LOVED it if Lee were stuck with a 7 or 8 string :D

Lee, that solo at the end on the les paul was fucking great!!!

Weekly segment of blind folded rig challenge? Do this every week and just get the best sounds you can get with your chosen rig. It would be awesome to see these random combos and just entertaining as hell!

Wow, that Fender amp made that Les Paul sound so much better, it was like night & day

I went looking for a 'guitar for metal with a double locking tremolo. I looked at all the usual suspects like Ibanez, LTD and Schecter of which the shop had none. All they did have was a PRS SE Torero with EMGs and a Floyd Rose. Never even thought of that! So I tried it and didn't want to put it down again. I ended up buying the guitar and I love it to bits!

that evh sounds really good

I love these videos(:

How have I only just found this!!!

This was a fkin fantastic video great festive fun guys! Can't stop watching this channel. Also, I need to visit Andertons.

ive been waiting for a challenge for so long...
