Mary! This is just SO nice and kind of you! Thank you!!! And I'd love to meet you too and get to talk...maybe on a Tuesday? ;)
Wishing much success to you always!

[TomoFujitaMusic]

So cool that you share your joy of your friend musician's joy!!

Josh Smith is an incredible player. His talent, passion for the guitar and his work ethic are off the charts. That is awesome of Ibanez to do this.

I met Lari at the last two NAMM shows. She is one of the friendliest and humble person. She even remembered me when I met her one year later from our first brief saying just "hello".

My sixteen-year-old violinist daughter, who has taught herself classical guitar, just got given a Slash signature Epiphone Les Paul and she is utterly rapt.

[matthewgonzalez]

Lari is one of my favorite guitarists! So melodic!!!

[chrisaassd]

some nice advice on the back of Cory Wong's headstock

[JacksonAudio]

That was a hugely smart move on Ibanez part. They are breaking out of their mold and it's awesome to watch!

lari basilio is a gem. I've first discovered her through her Titanium cover and every time I see new material from her i'm blown away how creative it is. Also, she rocks the ripped jeans

Great video, Mary. You also mentioned two other great guitarists. Tom Quayle is a fantastic guitarist, and I love his demeanor. Nita Straus's a great player as well. You should check out the channel that Rachelf has. Yes, it's Rachel with an "f' at the end. She went to Nita's album release party and won an air guitar contest, which earned her a Nita Strauss signature Ibanez guitar, which Nita then signed for her. It's amazing how many luminous guitar players there are out there!!! Thanks for giving a shout out to Nita and Tom, along with Cory, Josh, and Lari.

I'm so happy for Lari!! I've been watching/listening to her for a while, and her joy truly comes through!

[riverman]

Yvette Young has a signature Ibanez as well...you should interview her...she has such a unique playing style

[trukr]

I have never understood that complaint about strap locks. Just how is it they make rattling noises with the tension from the guitar being suspended from the strap? Even IF they did, it beats the sound of a headstock plowing into the floor.

[rustysguitar]

I am excited for them also! Great video!

[jmzorko]

This might be my new favorite channel. I'm nowhere near the guitar player you likely are, but I do adore mine. The one I have the most stories of is my Steinberger Synapse, which i've taken to a bunch of places - Switzerland, Alaska, Iceland, France, Japan, Peru, as well as the US (it's and my California home). The funniest thing that happened to me with it was in Switzerland, though.

Excited to see these guitars keep my eyes off the fact that lovely old epiphone is sitting on a stand beside a window AND a Hope that was just for a video backdrop and it doesn't stay there 🤯😭

[translationstations]

👍 Lari is basically my fav guitarist today. Tone, expression, everything!

[chrisrcarlson]

Lari is one of the best melodic players out there today. Like you said. She makes it look joyful and effortless. She deserves the recognition! And may she continue to inspire new players.

Why, as a guitar maker, we strive to create as perfect a finish as we can, when really the more beaten up a guitar looks the more it’s loved. Probably it’s how it got it’s marks and scratches that makes so lovable. Great video. Cheers Dave

[lukehenderson]

I love signature guitars that give you options not available in rest of a brand’s catalogue, like unusual pickup configurations, that you’d normally have to go custom or seriously mod your guitar for. Like the sigs for Tom Delonge, Neil Westfall, Jared James Nichols, etc.
