#FlatTopFriday #1957GibsonJ45 🇺🇸
1)Country Roads take me home/John Denver
2)Jack & Dianne/Johnny Cougar Mellancamp
sweet barreling cannon burst, the road to 300k. Tell Norm I’ll take the ‘60 burst 🔥
Haven’t seen ya in a while mike, you doing alright?
Hey Mark & Jen 57 is my birth year, I can feel the vibes all through my bones and brain. Men what a sound and soul wow thanks for all those tunes you guys are the best. Love you all.
What a gorgeous tone out of that J45, it deserved all that loving.
Wow what a swell guitar! Although I am a day late and Mark already acknowledged the sad passing of Ed King yesterday I just learned something about him that I had not known. He also played in a late 1960's psychedelic band called the Strawberry Alarm Clock who had a delightful pop hit called "Incense and Peppermints" that is fondly remembered by those of us in the geezer class. They were quite well known back in the day but largely forgotten now. If you like that sort of thing check them out.
Geezer class, Yes, that's me. Ha! I saw The Alarm Clock spring break 1968, Daytona Community College. They and Buffalo Springfield opened for The Beach Boys. The Strawberry Alarm Clock were great. They were polished musically and they wore the coolest psychedelic outfits. I'll never forget it. Another mild hit of their's was "Tomorrow". One I always loved. Thanks for conjuring up those memories.
Jim
The Strawberry Alarm Clock may have seemed like veterans for a reason. Back in their active days, there was a rumor that they were a repurposed Ronnie And The Daytonas to catch the psychedelic wave. Who knows? Anything's possible.
Very nice!! Lots of love poured into that thing.
One of my favorite guitar of all time. It's been on my wish list forever. Not much else to say. Please somebody buy this and give it to me.
Such a beautiful guitar. WOW. AMAZING.
J45's are awesome! Thanks for the upload!
Love the sound of that flat top.... something about a well loved and played old guitar. They just get better.
Love the tone of the J-45, and Mark is playing it the right way: hard. It gives the best when you are not gentle with it. Boom!
Thanks for the birthday gift Jen and Mark :)
It's broken in but not broken hearted, man this thing's got a heart of gold. Lucky new owner.
J-45 is my all time favorite guitar. My Dad bought a J-45 brand new in 1962. It’s the guitar I learned to play on. It’s been my best friend from my teenage years to present day. Whenever I looked at guitars I was always disappointed because nothing gave me that booming sound I had become accustomed to. That J-45 spoiled me. I quit trying to find that sound in other guitars. I still have this Old Workhorse today along with a few others for their own distinctive tones.
Love this here Guitar today! Great one to show off, especially on my mates Birthday! HOWEVER! Gotta do a Maton!
I’ve lived in WV all of my 56yrs ♥️ I’m teaching myself to play guitar, so this is the 1st song I learned. I don’t sound like that yet, but I’ll get there. Thanks for this one!!!
How did it turn out? 😁
Mark you were the best we miss you on guitr of the day!!!!!! I will follow you with Gibson. I wish the best of luck to you.
Thanks for showing my state some love!
Bravo!👏
Yep !!! .. I knew it ... I saw that Cherry '63 335 on the "Norm went Shopping" video.. and I said in the comments that it would sell before it can get featured on GOTD... that guitar was a clear A++ stand out in that video !!
I just learned how to play Jack and Dianne after being inspired to do so by this video. Cool song to play.👍🏻
I identify with that J45. Older, little beat up from life, still makin music. Love the sound it makes. It's has a low end I really like. Mark and Jen; great job as always. If you make 300k I'd like to win that guitar. LOL
Tickling and banging the 1957 Gibson J-45. N.I.C.E.
I've got a 67 and I love it
You got me melancholy now I miss my old country road friends .
i enjoyed the "through the forest of gibsons shot " Jen!
Great playing on a great guitar.
Nice sounding J-45
1. Take me home, country roads - John Denver
2. Jack & Diane - John Cougar Mellencamp
Sounds awesome!
Great song choices!
that's a classic for sure , and a great sound , strong and resonant with some great ring. Well played Mark. I love this show but I do miss the days when you actually told us about the guitar , like the wood its made from , the bracing , what actually makes it special , different from other vintages of the same model , learning about these classics is half the fun of the show. just sayin. Can't wait to see which guitar you give away , thanks guys.
Fine playing!
What a beauty...
Saw John Denver live in Detroit, my first concert, in the Seventies.
Sweet j45 those Gibsons from that Era are sweet
I was in the store today when they filmed this!
Nice Gibson J-45. Played in well. '57 was a pretty cool year,,,fuelie "vettes and Bel Aires, oh, and me. Maybe old (nope) but born at the right time for music.
Mick Ronson for Jack and Diane, maybe.
I can dig it.
Mr.Stranger dug
You're a great guitar player ! Greetings from France !
Welcome back mark!!!
Happy FlatTop Friday everyone!
While the Counrty roads were taking me home I ran into Jack
& Diane.
1) Country Road-Little Johnny Deutschendorf-er, John Denver
2) Jack And Diane- John Cougar Melonhead-er, Mellencamp
Mark reaction is exactly what my reaction would be, love that. I just bought a 1996 j45 which is also sick, but this shit is different level haha
Oh! its Jack and Diane, I was thinking more like Gate and Jen hahahahahahaha........ Thanks Mark,( Jen, its a little joke :-))
It’s awesome Video , thanks for sharing . Kindly Compare to J45 standard, which one you prefer ? I am looking for J45 standard , but is out of stocks , 50’s J45 original is in stocks . Don’t know how to make a choice ...thanks
Makes a WV boy a little homesick......
I am so down for a guitar prize!
Nice 'vibe' on this one. All abord for …...VIBETOWN!!!
Jen. tricky camara angles on this show. Nice.
That looks like my dream guitar, in vibetown 🤔
when you pulled out the pick that guitar came alive, sounds stellar
Oughta do some Ed King licks for Straturday tomorrow... RIP Mr. King.
That’s a beautiful guitar !! Unbelievable tone !! The previous owner must really miss it. Interesting!!??
Who's still coming back for this in 2022? I hope my J-45 ages like this one. 👌🏻
Here in 2022. Cheers!
Country roads take me home ~
Nice!
John cougar mellencamp! Early music memories right there!
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Cool
Sweet sounds from this old timer for sure.
Hello all hope all is well
Country roaaaaaad take me homeeeeee to the placeeeee i belooooong..
Great instrument. We like ;)
So are those strings 13s or what? I'd like to know.
John Denver used this model when he joined up with Ginger Baker and Jack Bruce for that summer music festival in Telluride.
It's got scuffs in all the right places. What a spectacular guitar. That guitar makes me feel bad for guitars that are 60 years old and had owners worried about resale value.
Also, Country Roads & Jack & Diane.
Dibs on the guitar giveaway! I'll take a guitar like this one!
COUNTRY ROAAAAAADDD

Jen quoting Jimmy Swaggart didn't go unoticed
Sweet I would love to have a rare guitar but what is a chance to win one gonna cost me
And I need rules clarification do I need to submit a set list every day to win a shirt or will getting one day right get me a entry
That guitar is the same age as me.
Well worn and aged around the edges, also just like me.
😉
Are you worn down to the growth rings ;)
@@davidcampbell4174 😂
In places, at least I think they're growth rings. Maybe just growth's, I'll have to ask my doctor.....
He'll say they're medullary rays and you'll nod and blink politely.
@@maxwellfan55, had to look that up. Well played sir, well played.
nice guitar bro
Way rad! Hoping to buy a banner era J45 in a few years. For now, I'll play my 2017 J45 which has plenty of mojo. Just not as much as a 50's.
Will Vallarino not yet. Time will work it's magic
I'll take a new one. Gibson still in Montana making them like they used to.
Like Jill said, you're fueling, it's mojo every time you play, air it out (don't leave it in the case) but mind the humidity, and play it, lucky man !
I actually heard leave it near the stereo speakers. The more the top vibrates the more it opens up.
You're definitely right, Jill!
Lovely guitar, same age as me but in better condition. Oh, I'll have a L/H '59 please ;0)
great camera work by the way...
Hey Mark how do you say Cinque Terre?
Looks like the one we have...ours is from the 60's.
👍👍👍
What's with all the Keith shirts Mark ??
There's no need for any other acoustic guitar other than a j 45.
Guitar ocd, l'm always thinking I want to get a big giant J 200 when I win the lottery but I would settle for a J 45 if I had to
Guitar ocd
I CERTAINLY AGREE WIT DAT
I am looking for a acoustic guitar electric, but not sure which one to get?
victoria kolega, Know your budget, and then go out and play a lot of guitars.
victoria kolega, enjoy the hunt. And know that sometimes the best thing is to have a guitar sneak up on you.
Could you do a Gibson Barney Kessel sometime?
Not Answering
A GREAT GUITAR IT IS ✔️
Now that’s a nice sounding guitar! Not a Martin, but sweeeet.
I’d give away a guitar if I had 300,000 subscribers too....sheesh! Love the flattop!
Please play some Rory Gallagher
Fluro Flash
not gonna happen dude, rory is ment to be enjoyed at home man
If anyone dislikes this they need a swift knock to the jaw! That was killer! Jen your camera angle was a step above! Love it! Happy Friday ya'll!!!
