Thanks for the chat Phillip and thank you for so many kind comments!

Love to see someone that is a master of their craft be that down to earth and unpretentious! No snobbery or BS. That guy really represented Fender well!

[teddydavis]

An old adage: You’re a pro if you can explain it to another pro, but you’re a master if you can explain it to anyone.
You can tell, this guy is a master.

[aleks]

His enthusiasm is so pure, they gotta give this guy more screen time cuz he's making fender look really good

[bstan]

You can tell that Ron loves his job. He was so excited. Such a wholesome dude. Great vibes.

[RockmannMusic]

The Fender company very well & positive represented, super likeable guy

[aquasloth]

Oh man, that T.R.A.I.N. tip is one of the best I’ve heard in a long time.

[priyonjoni]

We got a Brian May fan in the store noodling away.

[laafa]

I think that dude was genuinely happy to see the company he works for building quiality affordable guitars... he's gonna be a squire master builder after this.

[slowcuber]

‘Lots of colours and choices to pick from’

Hysterically laughs in left handed

[bjornwolf]

What a nice Guy, who is having the most expensive Guitars in his Hands on a daily Basis and taking this low Cost Examples serious.
Thumbs up.

[kevinbarr]

I like that this is a guy who could play ANY guitar in the world and give an accurate, valuable critique and he's geeking out over a Fender Contemporary.
I get he idea he really loves guitars

[redcomn]

I like his approach on choosing guitar.

Neck feel is extremely important

[LesAventuresDeTigRRe]

I love how he doesn't really know what to say at the beginning and then just nerds away, sharing amazing tips and taste. 18 min felt like 4 mins. That's quality content right there.

Yea ron, Ron, owned a few lefty e5 e6 and e7 squire. Made in Japan. I feel validated due to a person of your caliber. Infeel you are a very modest person.thanks, Jim k.

[epi]

Truly enjoyed this: a guy who makes high-end guitars taking time to examine the kind of instruments I can afford, explaining what he's looking at, and sharing his enthusiasm. Very helpful, and fun to watch, too . . . thanks!

[jokkon]

I love how happy he was. Once hes plugged it into the amp... LOVE IT

[johngaudesi]

This man is the real deal. Unbelievably talented, dedicated, kind and humble. One in a million.
A music industry legend in the works.
