    Now you should do Justin's Ace of Spades on the 3 string shovel

      Legitimately came to say. Anything on the shovel or one of his other crazy homemade 3 stringers.

    JJ is so easy to listen too. He oozes soul. I have been watching him for a couple years. He can pretty much put strings on anything and make it sound awesome!!

    What’s really sick about JJ’s playing is his pacing and groove. Lots of people can pull off those licks but few can put it together so that it adds up to a MOOD. He never forgets that the root of all this music is the call-and-response of African and African-American folksong. He plays a bass riff and answers it with trills on the treble strings. Its a conversation going back and forth, and his mastery is in allowing you to hear what each side is saying. You can’t just nail the licks, you have to find the FEELING and lock it down tight. Everything flows out of that. You don’t have the feel - or the mojo or the soul - and 10,000 rattlesnake tails won’t help you. In fact they’ll just make you look and sound ridiculous. And the first tip toward finding that groove is remembering that this is also dance music. If you can imagine people shaking, shimmying and rubbing up against each other while you play, you’re on to something. Of course, I’ve been trying to find that groove myself for the past 30 years...and it’s damned elusive.

      As Michaels said in past videos, fret hand = vocab/words vs picking hand = voice/ how you express. It's one thing to know the words you want to use...

    • @bombercountyblues
      @bombercountyblues 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The use of homemade/repurposed slide guitars is a homage to the the original bluesmen of 100+ yrs ago, who built their own instruments due to not having the money for anything else. As well as cigar boxes and oil cans, shovels were actually one of the most common things used.. usually with bailing wire for strings.
      The blues was literally born on those things..

    The Furch Guitars story began a long time before the company was officially established. In the 1970s, Frantisek Furch, a metalworker by day and a musician by night, faced the dilemma of complete unavailability of high-quality musical instruments in the then socialist Czechoslovakia. Because importing an instrument from overseas was too complicated and excessively costly, he resorted to his metalworking skills and used an old drum to make his first banjo. A few years later, Frantisek also made his first acoustic guitar, in the roundback style, with a spruce top plate from an old piano. The response of other musicians to his first guitar was very favorable, and prompted a high number of Frantisek’s friends to commission a guitar from him. Initially, Frantisek made several prototypes of roundback guitars, a type that was very popular and in high demand at that time, generating even more interest in his instruments.
    Seems like they make make a hell of a guitar.

    Gotta love Justin Johnson and his very unique bluesy style of finger picking. Reminds me of a young Stevie Ray Vaughn, who plays more acoustic than electric. Not always a fan. But he has grown on me, lately. I'd like to hear him with a serious band. But he is a one man band. With or without. Such a great and unique talent.

    I know this isn't your typical type of video to review, but you often talk about audience control, groove, and little bits of theory, so I thought you might like this if you've never seen it. It's a little look into the everyday genius of a professional musician. It's a little more subtle than Albert King's approach! Also, look how happy the bass player is at 0:44 ish. Hahahaha

    Justin is honestly one of the best I’ve heard in a very long time.

    Michael - that's his girlfriend filming and the guitar is a Furch and is a relative unknown in the guitar world. You should check out his unboxing videos where he did one on the Furch guitars

    Your characteristic noodling on the fretboard is reminding me strongly of my first guitar teacher; many moons hence. I was doing classical grade work with him. He taught (and performed) both jazz and classical guitar. He always had a guitar on his lap and he would punctuate his conversation by improvising in bebop style. He did this unconsciously, but excellently even while talking to someone on the phone (pre cellphone era - dating myself I know) and his playing would get more frenzied and complex depending on his mood, and the conversation. He had studied with Barney Kessel, and he was the one who introduced me to the joys of jazz in the first place. Great flashback memory. Watching you do this is a true blast from the past.

    I love Justin and watch every video I come across. This one is really cool. He has inspired me to attempt to learn slide. I can't wait for the opportunity to see him in a live venue!

    That flat-5-lick on the 1st and 3rd fret is quite prominent in the beginning riff of Black Sabbaths In To The Void. I can't hear that lick without that coming into my mind. Hahaha.

    I could have picked 1 of 300 videos,... but I've never seen a 9-string and a rattler... thanks to Tunesday Nights, I've seen shovels, hoes, and as a comment of one of Justin's video said... "give the man a shoe and tight strings, you'll have a song". Justin Johnson is scheduled for next Tunesday LIVE 11/24/20!
    Cheers community!

    Sir just wanna thank you for your videos. I love new music and your videos never fail to introduce me to incredible musicians. However, one thing you've done is get me to pick up my guitar again. Got my nose to the grindstone with music theory, and trying to practice at least 30 minutes a day. Have newborn twins so its been a challenge. When moneys better I will support, until then all I can do is ring that bell. Thank you again sir, and please continue the great work.

    Michael, big fan. I’d love to see you react to Justin Broadbent covering On the Road Again live at Montreux jazz festival. Some really cool slide guitar techniques to breakdown

  • @Motofred5
    @Motofred5 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    He Rocks for sure(thought so ever since first hear). That you can translate n articulate it means you Rock as well. (I'll do my best to join you there)

    I'm a huge JJ fan. Love his slide playing too. He's authentic to the bone. Check out his version of Jack White's "Third Man" recording booth. Too good.

    You should see him play a 3 string shovel. Been watching this guy for a couple years. He's the real deal.

      He'll play it Tuesday Night I bet :-)
