Best Rig Rundown so far. Joe is so down to earth and willing to show off those (expensive) awesome guitars and still be humble enough to talk about his beginnings in New York. The Line 6 Variax line was priceless.
No joke that was the best of the best rig rundown ever I blown away with joe and his collection like 5 millions worth of guitar in 45 min wow amazing for the truly guitar nerds only 😳👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻❤️❤️❤️💯💎💎💎
Thanks Joe for showing my 1960 Les Paul "Blessing" off in this rig rundown. very kind of you ...and you are putting it through its paces! Adding more value to it so that when we eventually donate the proceeds from the sale of it to Homes For Our Troops ...it will be adding even more blessings in life. You are a true "pay it forward" guy....keep on rocking.
@@booitsnick Thanks ...it was a blessing to have this guitar through all these years ...and hopefully it will continue it's journey in providing good tidings in this crazy world with the money it brings. Homes for Our Troops is a great organization ....and our volunteer veterans with extreme injuries deserve the kind of support they deliver IMO.
Each time I hear Joe Bonamassa over the years he seems to be the most passionate and funny guy which possess an incredible talent and a ferocious determination !
Joe is one of those rare artists who are still just good dudes. He has every excuse to not be accessible yet he’s candid and willing to share his knowledge and talent with those of us who are simply in awe of his talent.
That was awesome. Total respect to Joe Bonamassa who not only is a great musician and person, he raises thousands of dollars for musicians, homeless people, provides instruments for school kids, and employees a lot of people. Thank you Joe.
One of the few "cork sniffers" who ACTUALLY makes the best use of all his expensive gear. No pretense, he really uses that stuff for all it's worth and sounds fantastic as a result! Always a treat to see.
Joe seems like the nicest guy. He is like a kid at Christmas.He loves the guitars,amps and performing.I wish him much happiness pursuing his love for music.
Bohlinger - man ,he can be SO enthusiastic. It is fun to watch how excited he gets. He's also a good moderator. Doesn't usually step on the person he's interviewing.
Bonamassa is a wonderfully fun and funny, and so very talented, musician. I’m really glad to see these videos because they show us that he’s down to earth, just enjoying his time. Those Twins sound stunning!
Joe's Nerdville interviews also show The Man. We get to really know more about Joe than most through his extensive TH-cam catalog. It's awesome to have "everything Joe" accessible on TH-cam. ❤️😎❤️
Joe’s modesty is so admirable. Someone listening from outside this blues-rock music generation, would never believe what an absolute monster he is, any time a guitar is in his hands. A brother of excellent character 😎🎩♠️💙
He’s so genuine, so humble, and so hilarious. Awesome to listen to someone just be real about how much they love guitars and gear. Just bought my first Gibson Les Paul R8 Dirty lemon burst 2018 after 14 years of staring at them in magazines and TH-cam. Got it with a Mesa boogie 22 caliber studio combo plus and it’s a dreamer egg. Sounds almost like Joe on stage. Love it
@@castleanthrax1833 Beyond. And I’m usually pretty critical, brand names and the hype don’t sway my opinions but this is the real deal. Very proud of it and happy with it.
I think there's a market for Joe to do guitar oriented stand up comedy in the middle of his shows. If you've never seen him live, you're missing out. He's truly a devastating player.
OMG and Beyond!!! Old School Blues Powerhouse Rocker! Keeping the Faith. Thank you Joe for sharing your passion and John for poking and prodding and laughter and awe.
Joe Bonamassa is the best! Beyond the legendary gear, the great songs, sings very well, plays guitar like a monster, and he is still a such a nice and funny guy.
I've followed Joe for years. Seen him a lot. Met him once. He seems so relaxed and funny in this interview, like the joy is back somehow. Glad to see it.
Joe is one of those rare stars who is so self-depreating and warm that we could totally envision having a beer with him... another dandy rig rundown. I must have watched the first one 200 times
Saw Joe LIVE the evening of this interview, at the Kickoff of the Time Clocks Tour at the Ryman Auditorium. ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC PERFORMANCE! I smiled and cried the entire non-stop set. Sheer joy, shock, and awe to SEE and HEAR The Man and crew. Even watching Joe and his guitar tech switch guitars for every song was pure magic. Joe, I'm the Mom you took a photo with before you boarded your coach headed to Ohio. It means the world to me that you took a minute. ❤️THANK YOU JOE BONAMASSA!
The best thing about Joe is he just absolutely loved talking about this stuff just like any of us mere mortals would. You can sense him getting excited with John throughout which is so cool considering it's his stuff he plays every day
Joe is such an amazing player. Amazing technique and unbelievable clarity in his picking. Also super down to earth. Love watching his videos. Also love the fact that he has 3 dumbles in his rig!
I never get tired of seeing Joe talk about guitars and play them. Not a huge vintage guitar aficionado but if they had to choose the ambassador he is obviously it.
Joe is guitar tone GOD and top guitar nerd over the world!!! One of the greatest guitar player of all time. Thanks Premier Guitar for rig rundown with him.
Would love just to talk guitars with him he's really one of the most knowledgeable guy when it comes to vintage guitars not to mention the outstanding player he is
Joe is really enjoyable to listen to, both playing or telling stories. And John does interview really good. He knows the stuff and lets it shine...I enjoyed it a lkt. Thanks guys
Bonamassas expertise and gear are amazing and he seems to be a really nice guy. To play these guitars and amps on tour is really cool. Thank you John for this rig rundown !
I love that as many rig rundowns John has done with Joe, the look on his face like he is just crapping his pants, never changes. He must just be in awe of the volume! I like that Joe seems like just a dude you could hang out with. Doesn't take himself to serious till he has to.
Joe is a man who knows everything about guitars. And he trusts quality goods, not for any cheap guitars and copies from the East. He is one of my all time guitar heroes.
Saw Joe live for the 1st time in Brighton a couple of months ago and yes he was incredible, but I also had a propper nerd out on his guitars all night and his constant tweaking of knobs and switches. Really satisfied the guitar nerd in me all night.
Agree with, and appreciate, all of the comments here about Joe’s brilliance, but John, thank you for your enthusiastic, thoughtful and insightful interview questions, in this and all of your Rig Rundowns! You combine the joy of a fan with the knowledge and experience of a professional musician! We benefit.
I love these rig rundowns...and always enjoy the one's with Joe. So many guitars, so many amps....a dream to be able to have all these choices for every song. But in reality, playing the bar and theatre gigs I do it's also nice to just bring a couple of guitars, make them work for what's needed, focus on the music, and pack up relatively quickly at the end of the night. Sure, if I was on a tour like Joe's I would bring all the gear I could and have the roadies take care of the load in/load out. Again, love these Joe rig rundowns and love the stories behind the gear!
2 of my most favorite "JB's"!! One is an awesome guitar player, super nice guy, and knows almost everything about guitars and gear!! Then there's Bonamassa, great player I met at a thruway stop gig many years ago in NY, I really enjoyed a long conversation with his Father! Our gig had got cancelled that night due to a snow storm. Really enjoyed this!! 8) --gary

Joe's producers name is Kevin Shirley , not Joe :-)
Thanks Joe for showing my 1960 Les Paul "Blessing" off in this rig rundown. very kind of you ...and you are putting it through its paces! Adding more value to it so that when we eventually donate the proceeds from the sale of it to Homes For Our Troops ...it will be adding even more blessings in life.

Beautiful guitar sir!!! Had mine stolen many years ago.
Dude that’s a hell of a way to raise some money. Much respect on using a burst for such a humble cause
@@onlyfromadistance7326 Woah ...a vintage Les Paul stolen?? That guitar needs to be found and the criminal prosecuted.
very kind of you to do that Richard. Cheers!
@@booitsnick Thanks ...it was a blessing to have this guitar through all these years ...and hopefully it will continue it's journey in providing good tidings in this crazy world with the money it brings. Homes for Our Troops is a great organization ....and our volunteer veterans with extreme injuries deserve the kind of support they deliver IMO.
Each time I hear Joe Bonamassa over the years he seems to be the most passionate and funny guy which possess an incredible talent and a ferocious determination !
Not even a hint of snob in him!
Humble as hell! Every time I hear him talking is like hearing an old friend!
It’s from all the Simpsons he’s watched
When you do your passion for a living ... And getting a very good paycheck!
Joe is one of those rare artists who are still just good dudes. He has every excuse to not be accessible yet he’s candid and willing to share his knowledge and talent with those of us who are simply in awe of his talent.
That was awesome. Total respect to Joe Bonamassa who not only is a great musician and person, he raises thousands of dollars for musicians, homeless people, provides instruments for school kids, and employees a lot of people. Thank you Joe.

Thoughts and prayers to PG's single SM57 doing it's best to pick up the entire Amp Shanty sound lol.
😂😂😂
Haha ha ha h durp durp
Ah, yes, I agree.
Joe seems like the nicest guy. He is like a kid at Christmas.He loves the guitars,amps and performing.I wish him much happiness pursuing his love for music.
John’s enthusiasm and Joe’s passion and comedy really really work off each other
Bohlinger - man ,he can be SO enthusiastic. It is fun to watch how excited he gets. He's also a good moderator. Doesn't usually step on the person he's interviewing.
totally agree. THE best rig rundowner on their staff.
Yes we all daydream of Bohlinger asking about our rigs.. when you know you've made it
There is such a thing as being overly effusive where you come off as nervous and insecure.
“Great, wow, beautiful” are obvious favorites of John’s
And, 'Really!'
JB rig rundowns are just the best (period)...
I love how Joe knows everything about his guitars and that the story behind them is as important as the sound and how it plays.
Two 60's, a 58 and a 59.......that's beyond eyewatering....and then at the end we have a Zack shout out, this RR has had everything.
this is my favorite rig rundown. its like Joe read every comment ever, and agreed, and said screw you, I'm doing it anyway... So great.
Bonamassa is a wonderfully fun and funny, and so very talented, musician. I’m really glad to see these videos because they show us that he’s down to earth, just enjoying his time.
Those Twins sound stunning!
" Bonamassa is a wonderfully fun and funny, ... " He knows how to have fun, which is the life blood of endurance.
Joe's Nerdville interviews also show The Man. We get to really know more about Joe than most through his extensive TH-cam catalog.
It's awesome to have "everything Joe" accessible on TH-cam.
❤️😎❤️

Very nice. I hope it's as good as you wanted. ✌️
@@castleanthrax1833 Beyond. And I’m usually pretty critical, brand names and the hype don’t sway my opinions but this is the real deal. Very proud of it and happy with it.
Joe is such a regular guy just geeking out over guitar gear, love it
I think there's a market for Joe to do guitar oriented stand up comedy in the middle of his shows. If you've never seen him live, you're missing out. He's truly a devastating player.
Agree - seeing and hearing him live is an APEX experience. Don't miss it!
Prefer Petrucci
He's one of the best live players I've ever seen. Truly a master of his craft.
@@irena7777777 I love Petrucci too.
He blew my ears & all expectations in Sydney Australia a few years back. Great choice in venues as well.
Joe is so generous with his enthusiasm. You can't beat that.
Rig rundown with Joe is always awsome. Such a cool and down to earth guy. Not to mentions his mental library of guitar knowledge 😁
Love ALL the Rig Run Downs.. BUT.. !!! The JB. Ones ?? are just THE BEST !!!
I can listen to Joe go on for hours about his gear. Very passionate and entertaining….heck of a picker too!
Nothing better than listening to Joe walk us through his gear 😍🎸
Yes, could listen to that all day long.
One thing better, IMHO, and that's a JB concert!
Joe's sound is like " rhino ' in a box " soaring on a cool desert wind " it's just killer and makes me love the electric guitar! Bring it on!
I love the cam mic getting absolutely boosted every time Joe plays. Man, that was nice to listen to ❤️
Nice???The digital distortion nice???
Two of the nicest people in the whole guitar world talking guitars and geeking out.. It doesn’t get better than this 👏🏻❤️
Double JB run downs are actually the best! Good stuff indeed!
Love it all more when the artist take the time to show there rigs
Joe is above all others on his gear and the love of it
OMG and Beyond!!! Old School Blues Powerhouse Rocker! Keeping the Faith. Thank you Joe for sharing your passion and John for poking and prodding and laughter and awe.
I could only watch 20 more hours of this. I love John's facial expressions because I was making the same ones.
When Joe and John are together you know it's going to be fun.
PG could put out a JB rig rundown once a month and I'd still watch every time.
Joe's one of the absolute best guys out there to do a rig rundown. He knows guitars.
Sometimes I hear Joe is a polarizing figure. I can't figure out how you could dislike him.
Well, he seems to think a modded '68 Tele thinline is somehow an affordable vintage guitar--it would be at least 10 grand!
@@cedarbay3994 for me that's not grounds to dislike a guy. Full disclosure, I have his signature amp.
@@cedarbay3994 it seems you haters just can't wait to bash Joe on every video. get a life.
I love that it was Joe and not his tech talking about his guitars. He's just a humble guy and an amazing player. Very cool.
Joe is the best! If I could only listen to one guitar player for the rest of my life...he's the guy.
Joe Bonamassa is the best! Beyond the legendary gear, the great songs, sings very well, plays guitar like a monster, and he is still a such a nice and funny guy.
He could just let his gear/guitar tech do this rig rundown like a lot of others "Rock Stars" have done.
JB's rig rundowns have to be my favorite
I've followed Joe for years. Seen him a lot. Met him once. He seems so relaxed and funny in this interview, like the joy is back somehow. Glad to see it.
Premier Guitar: "Hey Joe. Can you give us your rig rundown?"
Joe Bonamassa: "You got a month to spare?"
It’s true. He said that.
Joe is one of those rare stars who is so self-depreating and warm that we could totally envision having a beer with him... another dandy rig rundown. I must have watched the first one 200 times
Saw Joe LIVE the evening of this interview, at the Kickoff of the Time Clocks Tour at the Ryman Auditorium. ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC PERFORMANCE! I smiled and cried the entire non-stop set.

❤️THANK YOU JOE BONAMASSA!
I love how much Joe loves guitars. Its infectious!
Always love his rig run downs. Great sense of humour
JB has true passion for his instrument. His voice doesn't get mentioned much, but I love his singing.
Joe is a great dude!
My two favourite JB's. Joe's guitars & John's DLR level enthusiasm, these two guys could get up to some serious mischief.
John's enthusiasm and all round guitar geekery is a joy to behold!
The best thing about Joe is he just absolutely loved talking about this stuff just like any of us mere mortals would. You can sense him getting excited with John throughout which is so cool considering it's his stuff he plays every day
Been fortunate enough to see Joe live a few times now, he never disappoints. Monster player with monster tone. Really hits you hard.
Thanks John and Joe for another great rig rundown. I could just put the first 1:30 on an endless loop. Glorious.
Joe is a riot. He has the most expensive gear on earth, but is so down to earth. Love him!
John Bohlinger seems like the best dude of all time! He is a human dose of dopamine!
Killer episode.
Thanks Joe for bringing back the great British Blues!
28:29 this is the stuff I'm actually looking for ❤
What a true joy to have watched these two enthousiast, never grown up geeks. So talented en pure. They made my day today.
John is the best guy on rig rundown just adds so much to the videos
Joe is the best and the appreciation he has been giving is priceless
Joe is such an amazing player. Amazing technique and unbelievable clarity in his picking. Also super down to earth. Love watching his videos. Also love the fact that he has 3 dumbles in his rig!
Glad to see you back with the pedals, Marshall’s, Dumbles and Tweeds. It’s you! Great Rig Rundown.
Yes! So much generous time given with all heart. Thanks, Joe!
The Marshalls are back baby, hell yeah. Crank it Joe B.🎛️🎶🔈🎶🎛️🔈🔈🔈🔈🔈🔈🎶🎛️🎶🎛️🎸🎸
I could watch these two do rig rundowns all day
You can tell John is having a blast. Love it
I never get tired of seeing Joe talk about guitars and play them. Not a huge vintage guitar aficionado but if they had to choose the ambassador he is obviously it.
Joe just gets better and better.... love him, happy to learn from everyone and passionate beyond belief
Joe is guitar tone GOD and top guitar nerd over the world!!! One of the greatest guitar player of all time. Thanks Premier Guitar for rig rundown with him.

A true lover and champion of guitar players! We love you Joe! You are the inspiration for new guitar heroes like @Augustisfalling
Saw Joe with my dad on the 13th. Best concert I've ever been to!
Oh I love the Bonnie Strat and the Royal Albert Burst
What a gem of a dude. Had me laughing so hard. Sick gear and sick playing! Keep stoking us, Joe.
Bonamassas expertise and gear are amazing and he seems to be a really nice guy. To play these guitars and amps on tour is really cool.
Thank you John for this rig rundown !
This was more than a rig rundown. Joe is one smart guy.
I’m thrilled that pedals are cool again. Joe is amazing. Another one I’ll watch 5 or 6 times.
I love that as many rig rundowns John has done with Joe, the look on his face like he is just crapping his pants, never changes. He must just be in awe of the volume!
I like that Joe seems like just a dude you could hang out with. Doesn't take himself to serious till he has to.
Joe is a man who knows everything about guitars. And he trusts quality goods, not for any cheap guitars and copies from the East. He is one of my all time guitar heroes.
Dude tours with a ‘58, ‘59 & ‘60 LP. How cool is that?
And a vault full of 50’s-60’s Strats and Tele’s! Hell that Dumble is worth more than a lot makes in a year!
This guy is dad guitar personified. I am now a dad, I wonder if I will eventually appreciate his incredible gear excess.
I've watched this rundown 4 times now. Joe is so down to earth. John and him should play a few songs together some time. That'd be awesome
Man, Joe gets some of the best sounds... Genuine rock star ! Love it that he, himself, walks us through his rig... Keep the rig rundowns PG 🔥🔥
Saw Joe live for the 1st time in Brighton a couple of months ago and yes he was incredible, but I also had a propper nerd out on his guitars all night and his constant tweaking of knobs and switches. Really satisfied the guitar nerd in me all night.
Great to see the ATB 'Dirty Burst' up and rocking!
Rig Rundown are definitively like during christmas when you look at the toys through the store window
John's absolute kid in a candy store laughing and wide eyes is exactly how a person SHOULD feel standing in front of all of those amps. haha!
Agree with, and appreciate, all of the comments here about Joe’s brilliance, but John, thank you for your enthusiastic, thoughtful and insightful interview questions, in this and all of your Rig Rundowns! You combine the joy of a fan with the knowledge and experience of a professional musician! We benefit.
Love it. One cannot understand how difficult it is to keep that all under sonic control.
I love how Joe bonamassa play The guitar very smoothly I would listen to him I would listen to him all day long
I will never pass up on a Joe Bonamassa rig rundown. Come for the gear, stay for Joe's comedic wit and one liners.
I love these rig rundowns...and always enjoy the one's with Joe. So many guitars, so many amps....a dream to be able to have all these choices for every song. But in reality, playing the bar and theatre gigs I do it's also nice to just bring a couple of guitars, make them work for what's needed, focus on the music, and pack up relatively quickly at the end of the night.

Joe's rundown with John is always the best!
Pure unadulterated nerd. Joe lives for making these. Thank you again
Best rig rundown best blues player nowdays truly legend bonamassa rulesss
Love Premier Guitar & Bonamassa!!!
I love Joe and his way of doing things! Unbelievable
JB is so much fun to listen to and John is great. Love these rundowns.
Bonnie Bramlett carving her name in that guitar reminds me when Homer Simpson carved "Homer Rocks" into Moe's antique beer tap 😂
Biggest guitar show on planet today. Thx Joe.
2 of my most favorite "JB's"!! One is an awesome guitar player, super nice guy, and knows almost everything about guitars and gear!! Then there's Bonamassa, great player I met at a thruway stop gig many years ago in NY, I really enjoyed a long conversation with his Father! Our gig had got cancelled that night due to a snow storm. Really enjoyed this!! 8) --gary
