  I guess he was serious...at least partially.

  And it seems to me like it's original Selmer...

  Nice to see a rocker not abuse a gypsy guitar but instead understand nuances.

  I love it.
  
  The guy has achieved a level of success and yet maintained the open mind, discipline & love for music that put him where he is.
  
  That's a good recipe for long-term happiness. More power to him.

  You get one chance to enjoy this day, but if you're doing it right, that's enough.

  Rick Vito had a Joseph di Mauro heart hole for quite a while. I've played it, and it isn't bad. Mick Taylor has a Selmer Hawaiian, which he used for slide on some Stones tunes. Jeff Beck has a plastic Maccaferri. Clapton has a Selmer. Lyle Lovett has a round-hole Selmer, last I heard. I'm sure there are more. And I didn't even count John Jorgenson, who, lest we forget, has made a good career as a rocker with Elton John and the Hellcasters. There are some other guys, but I am old and forget things a lot these days...

  I've never been a guitar player, but I've played one on stage.

  That's good that Guitar Center put that up but it's funny because I never seen any gypsy jazz guitars at any of the local GC stores...ever

  Even in Elderly Instruments, I've only seen a couple...Gitane or something lower end...unless they had them upstairs in the secret vault with the Dopyera Family collection (I saw that in the catalog...maybe it sold).

  Did I hear that right? Sounds like he gets DR's place in the pantheon however he says it.

  Here's another couple of metalcore studs doing their thing with a Selmac guitar. :-)

  Oh what balls of sprinkled on happiness.
  He couldn't even finger sync his one note solo.
  
  In the original video I appreciate his message but he could sure work on his tone a little.
