sparquelito Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 I like Rick Beato, and IF I had that kind of money, I would buy one of those signature guitars. Sadly, I don't have that much jingo in my pocket, so I will have to make do with the guitars that I currently own. 😞 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt. Pepper Posted September 13, 2022 Author Share Posted September 13, 2022 (edited) I’m think Gibson should give a cartoon character a sig model. Pepe LePew, The Road Runner, Huckleberry Hound, Snidely and Whiplash and The Banana Splits all need one. Us kids who grew up in the 70’s will eat that s-hit up. Edited September 13, 2022 by Sgt.

merciful-evans Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 I've seen quite a few Beato TY vids. He is an impressive player and very knowledgeable. Not so impressed by many of his opinions though. At least I've heard of him, which is more than I can say about most 'artist' models.

Pinch Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 The Roadrunner model is the logical choice. Because I read Slash got his nickname because he was always zipping by, coming and going at the same time. Then he played "Always on the run" with Lenny Krawitz. Lenny Krawitz got an Epi signature model. Then Slash got his sig models. Hence, next step: beep beep. See how the universe is all interconnected?

kidblast Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 (edited) It is what it is for all these kind of YT channels. But to me, he kind of gets it right most of the time, and I do find that he's not obnoxious about it. and. I kind of like that double cut. good for him!

If you're one of those kids you don't do much to make an argument that proves those 70's kids EVER grew up. But seriously, the only ones in that list up there who deserve a signature guitar are FLEEGLE and/or DROOPER, of the Banana Splits, the two that played some kind of guitar at least. And HUCKLEBERRY HOUND did a few times play what looked like a three stringed guitar(with only two tuning keys on it's headstock) and a banjo looking type thing. I'm not sure if any of the others played any instruments. And BTW--- It's Snidely Whiplash. Not Snidely AND Whiplash. Whitefang Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabs Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 The special sig model I am waiting for is a Slash guitar with a slim neck... Which is never gonna happen... So I will be waiting a long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NighthawkChris Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 (edited) I blocked his videos from going into my YouTube feed. He’s occasionally put up rant videos and all that… and I don’t understand why people want to make clickbait crap these days in their internet shared videos… a ton of YT content creators pride themselves on clickbait titles and such. I guess it’s quantity of videos over quality… Literally, titles and descriptions that aren’t true compared to the actual content… f’n stupid. But I digress, not sure why he has a signature model… maybe JC likes the way Rick looks in jeans… just guessing… Edited September 14, 2022 by NighthawkChris 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of people out there that think they know what they’re taking about posting their stuff on public web. I just try to let whatever common sense I have to prevail in the midst of all the chaos. Rick knows music stuff no doubt, but YT has made him flourish in whatever it is he does. He has a ton of subscribers and I guess that puts the pressure on him to make videos all the time.

Whitefang I could see a Road Runner sig based off a reverse Firebird or an Explorer. Embarrassingly I can see a Sponge Bob based off Bo Diddley's guitar. Doubt he'd go for it tho. Allways had a soft spot for Wooodstock. Snoopy's side kick. ------------ "If you're one of those kids you don't do much to make an argument that proves those 70's kids EVER grew up" Guilty.

Like when there's a headline that leads you to click on a news article, and the content of the article has no mention whatsoever of the content in the headline! Or, when you see a link that says "An asteroid the size of the empire state building is heading towards earth" When you read the article you find out it's going to take that asteroid about 3,000 years to get in to our solar system and may miss earth by a hundred million miles! 😂 17 hours ago, NighthawkChris said: Rick knows music stuff no doubt, but YT has made him flourish in whatever it is he does.

Sgt. Pepper Posted September 15, 2022 Author Share Posted September 15, 2022 (edited) I'll pass on this one. When they release a sig model from someone who is a "Tick Toker", that will be the one for me. Gibson blew their chance to have the Orange Messiah Signature Tweet Lier Model. It would be a new design shape called The Boob. It of course would come with a cell phone to make all those 1000's of Tweets that are 100% BS. And on the fret board, instead of his name it would say "Fake News". Edited September 15, 2022 by Sgt. Pepper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
