Found this Rare Vintage Fender Guitar!

That sounds fantastic. I played Eric's Blackie in the 1980s, he used our rehearsal facility at Shepperton studio's UK, as did many other top artists like the Stones and Black Sabbath. My friend was his guit tech (for over 30 years) and asked me to play a guitar whilst he messed with a guitar synth (after rehearsals) that Roland had given Eric. He passed me Blackie and plugged it up. Some awful noises were happening and couldn't appreciate its real sound, but I was totally lost and on cloud 9. The set up was just spectacular and seemed to play itself, didn't need my right hand. Then I realised his 59 LP Burst was there amongst the 10 guitars sitting in a semi circle, so HAD to play that too. I was extremely fortunate✌️🇬🇧

You've got incredible control of the guitar. The bends, the feedback, the subtleties. Great guitar, great playing.

Man, you’re really the kind of player that makes me immediately pick up my guitar. The tones, the gear, everything.

Love hardtails. I have a 74 hardtail that I got for my 12th birthday in 1976. It was in the store, for two years, still brand new; nobody wanted it. It's not as cool as this 57, obviously, but it's still my favorite guitar.

Matthew, love your passion, presentation, playing and vintage content. Many thanks.

Another great find Matthew! Always enjoy watching you vintage gear videos. Thanks for sharing!

Some of my favorite guitar tones on YouTube (and ever). Sounds great, keep it up 👍

I'm not a vintage guy, I'm not even a strat guy, I don't like old rock or blues yet I enjoy the hell out of your playing, your passion and love for your craft, gear and music. Stellar work and thank you!

Congrats on finding a true gem. We all know you will cherish it and make it sing for another 60 years!

New to the channel and love it already. The thing I take away most from your videos is how much your love for SRV shines through your playing. Thanks :)

You never cease to amaze! It's good that you find these treasures. I'm sure they are in good hands plus we get to hear them.!! Can't wait to see inside this great old guitar. This thing is one year older than me . It's a real treat that you take the extra time to show this. Thanks again!

Oh man, exactly what I needed after a long night of work. 7am, most people rising & shining, but I'm headed off to bed! No rest for the wicked! Great playing as usual, Mathew, and a beauty of a strat from long ago..I love all of it! Keep doing your thing, kid, you make me proud to play guitar.

Always amazing listening to your playing, that wonderful tone...Thanks truly for your inspiring job

Man I love your tone. Somehow you manage to wring a lot of feeling out of even the simple strummed chords. Great find, and looking forward to more videos on this one.

Good stuff man. Great quality as usual. Love the sounds and the playing. Really enjoyable channel.

Sick guitar and sick playing . One of my favorite YouTube channels . Can't wait to hear your music!

Very nice video as usual and great playing. Your tone rules .. the best. GREAT find 👏👏

Awesome as usual Matt! Really great tones, nice and chimey!

Great video as always Matthew. What a find! What a beauty! That bridge tone! 🔥

Sounds fantastic!! I'm impressed! And your playing, like always, is top notch!
