Richie Sambora

Richie Sambora from Bon Jovi talks about some of his favourite gear and guitars. This is the kind of video I like, when guitar legends test out their signature guitar and classic guitars and tell us what they think of it, and give some cool licks to demonstrate.

Richie talks about some of his favourite guitars and some vintage guitars from his collection. Here are the guitars featured:

1958 Gibson ES335
Richie Sambora gives a demo of the "mother tone" created by Eric Clapton by rolling off the tone. Gibson ES335's are smoth as hell and a classic blues guitar.

1959 Gibson Les Paul
This guitar is down in history not just by being a Gibson Les Paul, but the year it was made, something about the 1959 Les Pauls tone, everyone loves it, and Richie has one.

Richie Sambora Fender Signature guitar
A nice signature guitar, a Fender Stratocaster with a Floyd Rose Trem, what more can you ask for.

1963 Fender Stratocaster
Another one of Richie Sambora vintage collection, this 1963 Fender Stratocaster. Strats still have it's unique sound, glassy clear, the best guitar for funky rhythm playing in my opinion.

Peter Green - Guitar Collection

Peter Green is another one of those great british guitarists in history, he's a blues legend. His famous Les Paul has been sold on and circulated around. Peter Green over the years, however, has still build up a huge guitar collection.

About the Video:
I found this video of Peter Green going through his guitar collection which is locked up is a cage, he definitely keeps his guitars safe. He goes through various weird guitars he's aquired through the years. One thing about this video is, I don't know if it's just me but, Peter Green and the interviewer are so dull, this must be the dullest talkthrough of a guitar collection I've ever watched. Peter Green stumbles across some of his guitars which he forgot about and doesn't comment or play it to show it's tone and beauty, most his comments seem to be "oh, this is nice, this is interesting" or he just mumbles crap with no enthusiasm. Compared to John5's talking Telecaster collection, I could feel the passion in H5 when talking about his collection and the love for Telecasters, but Peter Green.....



I'm not even gonna post the second part to this video, you can find it on youtube.
