Doyle is the nicest guy ever. He was a guest at the church I used to play at and I asked him a simple question about his picking technique but the conversation was soon interrupted. Later that morning, I got a text from the worship pastor saying "Doyle is asking for you". I go to the back, and Doyle is sitting in one of the offices with two chairs and two guitars, and he gave me a lesson (and let me film it) for about an hour.
That’s so cool! I got to meet him about 3 weeks ago at my church. He signed my guitar, found out I was a worship leader, and prayed for me. It must have been cool to get a lesson from him!
I've got to be honest... I've never heard of this guy, but he's one of the best guitarists I've ever heard in my 47 years of existence on this planet. Thank you for this gift Sweetwater!
Check out Everyone Loves Guitar.... Craig did an interview with Doyle.... Very down to earth guy! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-FWTJy3sPZF4.html&ab_channel=EveryoneLovesGuitar
Playing guitar is compulsive, buying guitars is addictive, but Doyle's style is just plain infectious! Happy Holidays all! Just grab your favorite acoustic and play!
This is a lovely mini concert. I especially loved “How Great Thou Art” it was my Father-in-Law’s favorite. When he died I was allowed to keep the framed sheet music he had on his wall. Many Merry Christmases to Doyle🎼🎶🎄
EVH said of this guy that he had never heard a guitar played like that.....one of the highest compliments a guitar player could ever had....Chet Atkins also had very high praise for this man.....this man has a God given amazing gift.....👍
Tommy and Doyle are both Fantastic. Music is not a competition. “You play great but you should hear this person or that person” I hate this kinda comment.
@@30smsuperstrat Roy was a flat picker. He could not do the fingerstyle that Doyle, and others do. It's a different world. Roy's forte was showmanship! He was a great performer. I saw him many times and he never disappointed. Check out Doyle's rendition of Wabash Cannonball at the NAMM show several years ago.
Thanks again for another Sunday message, sort of strange that you mentioned Job, I just finished the Book of Job, and what a great story. May God Bless, and you, and keep fulfilling our Sunday blessings.
Fantastic show. I'm a big fan of Sweetwater too. I'm in California, but was lucky enough to take a road trip to Indiana and take a tour. My wife even went down their slide.
My dad always loved listening to Doyle Dykes. My dad played guitar and was decent but never gave himself much credit on his own ability. My dad passed away on Christmas Eve 2017, but I come back to Doyle Dykes guitar videos to remember my dad and his love for Doyle's music.
Doyle never fails to impress me. Seen him perform several times. His mastery of the guitar is incredible. Love his 12 string abilities. I'm always inspired to buy more guitars after seeing Doyle play.
Doyle! I've heard you over the last few years. Your gift is so welcome. I appreciate the depth of spirit you bring to your presence and remarks, ...even allulding to your own faith, but without pressing it on others, but instead offering the true spirit beyond all difference. Thank you for sharing yourself and your talent!!
Doyle has a great channel on RU-vid if anyone is unaware. One of my dream bills is Doyle playing with Setzer and Duke Robbillard for a night of Guitar extravaganza
Doyle, I was truly blessed to hear you play. What a wonderful testimony you have for our Lord and it comes through so beautifully in your guitar playing. ....Russell D.
Doyle is awesome! One of my top five favorite guitarists. Sweetwater is awesome! Wayne Davis is awesome! He has been my sales engineer for several years too! He has become a good friend and has made me a very happy customer. I purchase all my music gear at 'Sweetwater'. Gary K.
Thank you so much for this video Sweetwater! This is, hands down, one of the best videos you guys have ever done. More Doyle please, he's probably the world's greatest fingerstyle guitarist and certainly a wonderful person.
Outstanding concert! Thank you to Guild and Sweetwater! What a fine performance and demonstration of the guitars. So wonderful! Doyle did a simply fabulous job!
Oh my days. This guys’ playing sets my soul alight. If this video doesn’t make you smile I don’t know what will. Beautiful, entertaining and just top class. Sweetwater are where it’s at. Also what a gentleman and true spirit
I am very thankful to have the opportunity to hear this man play. I am also very fortunate to have met him and have the chance to hear him play live. He is an inspiration and a joy to hear and see play. Thanks to Sweetwater for hosting him through their RU-vid channel. Merry Christmas to everyone.
Thank you for all your beautiful music, Doyle. You really restored the spirit of Christmas in me! really hope one day we can meet. Merry Christmas to you and your family! I'm guitar poor😂but I wouldn't want it any other way! Blessings, Dan
Hats off to Sweetwater for highlighting this treasure or a guitarist and bringing him to a wider audience. Guitarist of all genres need to witness this master class in fingerstyle guitar.
Have to say this guy is amazing 👏. Had the pleasure to sit in a small guitar place and listen to him play and learned about his fam. Even bought the guitar he played that night and signed the neck. One of the best pickers still alive.
