Yer but then people like Jeff Beck, Alvino Ray, Frampton etc could literally make there guitar talk. Although Alvino used a mouth box. However Jeff didn't, just a very clever way of using the wha wha and trem to do it. Imo Jeff Beck was miles ahead of his time..
This man is simply a force of nature. I have loved listening to him in interviews. He is intelligent, warm, and kind. He is truly a virtuoso of the highest order. I usually don't like this genre much, but with John 5, I LOVE IT! Rock on John!
Hear hear. I've listened to him in a couple of interviews (notably 'No Guitar Is Safe' podcast) and liked what I heard but had never actually listened to him play until now. Impressive and very distinctive.
Sad to say that Manson scared me away and this is Johns first show I've ever seen. DAMN ! What a versatile monster guitarist. I watched and enjoyed every second !❤❤
You both are pretty ignorant in my book. One bashes his spelling, as if auto correct has never gotten the better of you, and the other trashes his music. You should both probably consider your own problems before pointing out other people’s. Scum bags 🤷🏻♂️
@@-Atmos1 It's just a guitar shape. You can put any pickups in any guitar and make it sound like anything you want. You could take a Gibson Les Paul, put tele pickups in it and make it sound like a telecaster, more or less.
@@CaptainRon1913 Totally wrong, But ok. Keep telling yourself that if it makes you feel better. You DID say more or less, but it is definitely MUCH LESS.
I just stumbled across this video and thought this wasn't going to be good almost let it slip away. I thought why not and boy am I glad I did. Watched the whole thing and was blown away by his style of musical material. I'm a self-taught guitar player with no lessons or reading sheet music. Lately, for the past few months, I have been coming up with my own material and a lot of it is similar to John 5's with the exception of working on getting my leads down better. Thanks for sharing the video I'm going to look into more of his videos available.
Agreed though I am sure John would agree himself when I say EVH will forever be known as the Guitar God, though shred’ers such as John and Dime definitely up there with Eddie. Respects 🤘🎸🤘
The vast aray of the audience is testament to your skills as a player. John 5is not easily replaced just like the other greats although he chooses to be a hired gun which is fuk n awesome in itself
Just wanted to thank you so much for taking such great video. Your camera work was fantastic, as was the quality. J5’s camera work left a little to be desired lol. We live in a rural area and we aren’t able to easily see him play live, so I watched your video on my VR headset last night and it was like I was there in the room. It was just amazing. Well done and thank you.
I admit I never paid attention to John as I was all over the map elsewhere musically. Lately since the MC announcement of Mick's retirement and John to his replacement, I've looked more for stuff he's done and been on, even as a sideman and man this guy can play. He's a killer musician and yes MC are lucky they got him.
What a fun show! You get it all just so cool how he can play like the great pickers an he loved Roy Clark an Buck Owen's! I'm 40 an all my friends that play always said Roy Clark was the best an could play anything he wanted. RIP Roy an awesome for John to keep his memory an playing styles alive! An kudos to John for being himself an not tying himself to one genre it would be a bummer with all that talent!
Hello you there Dion Tillman here, WHOA, is there anything John can't play, and again I really feel that guitar players should know all styles and seems to me John has covered all the bases,❤
