AS238 - The blue Guitar Collection - Cherry guest Jonathan Stout - Monteleone VS Collings

Hey guys, i just got back from my US gigs with some cool surprises for you. I went to play at the Django in June festival on the east coast with my 4tet (Romain Vuillemin Quartet) and with Génération Django; i was happy to see that Jonathan (the other biggest acoustic archtop nerd on this side of the hemisphere) was also performing there. A good vintage archtop session was in sight. But a few weeks before i went, the guys from the Archtop Fundation contacted me : they bought Scott Chinery's famous Blue Archtop collection and they want to guitars to do what they do best : PLAY ! They offer to bring me part of the collection at my gig ! It started when Scott Chinery custom ordered a guitar to the great Jimmy D'Aquisto : it needed to be a specific blue color, and be 18 inches full acoustic archtop. After his death, Scott commissioned about 20 of the best luthiers out there at the time (1996) to build their version of the Blue Guitar (Comins, Collings, Monteleone, Benedetto, Buscarino just to name a few). Please visit their website at TheBlueGuitars.com or on Instagram ‪@theblueguitars‬ A quick word on my guest : I discovered Jonathan Stout via Youtube while searching for vintage acoustic archtops in action ! He owned a few a did some comparison which i liked. One of his main influences is Allaun Reuss who played acoustic archtops in a very specific chord melody style he came up with. Jonathan has been geeking out this A LOT ! I'm happy to invite him in this video (and a few others to come) to share our mutual love for vintage swing and cool guitars. You can follow Jonathan on instagram ‪@campusfive‬ I'm happy to introduce these 2 insane guitars on the channel : Jonathan is playing a Monteleone Rocket Convertible guitar, with a Blue Chip TD 40 pick (approx 1mm) I'm playing a Collings Custom, with a gator Dunlop 0.71mm pick. Both guitars are strung with Elixir NanoWeb 12-53, and the sound is captured by 2 dpa 4099g, a bluebird and a Neumann TLM 103 microphone. I Hope you'll have as much fun listening that we've had recording. Please share and subscribe for more.
