Kirk chats about his new guitar from the kind people at @gibsonguitar It's been a long time in the making and Kirk could not be more proud. It is a 1959 Gibson ES 345 Murphy Lab custom made to Kirk's specifications. #gibson #murphylab #gibsoncustomshop
You're presence was sorely missed!
Kirk is the coolest blues guitarist on the planet.
He doesn't run out of ideas, riffs, phrasing, ever!!!!!!
@@seankearney5469 he free flows, bluesy goodness!!!
@@alguitarchristie then after the jam he laughs out loud!! He is way to cool, he has to much fun
I’ve had the privilege of meeting Kirk twice at his gigs in Australia. Just an absolutely monster gentleman whose humanity is as beautiful as his tone❤️
For sure. That comes across with ease like his whole vibe. And he pours that out through his guitar. Gentle speech. Blues with balls (soul). My new found guilty pleasure.
Dr. Ric - been off YT for a while, but recently caught some of your playing on Shane's channel. You still sound great. Wondering if you still had that black, CS, pine Tele? Be well.
Thank you for your comeback 👍🎵🎸
Listening to Kirk always makes me feel soo good !
The Blues just flows from this dude’s soul. Kirk helps me forget about technique and theory and to instead focus on the feel, and sound, of what I’m playing. Thanks Kirk, appreciate the help!
Love the way you outline the chords. I could listen to this all day long. Thanks Kirk!
"Live at the Regal" tone is nuts. Thanks for this.
Glad to have you back Kirk!!
I was just thinking yesterday where is Kirk. Here you are
Very happy to see you again! Thank you!
Thanks so much, Kirk, really appreciate u taking time 2 share and inspire.
Kirk, welcome back from your California trip. We certainly missed your insights
Thank God he’s back A bunch of us turned blue; Nice 👍 to be breathing again!
Bellissimo concerto a Bluetobop..... Grandissimo tu e Dany Franchi con la sua band!!!
Yes, definitely. Welcome back to my favorite guitar player, and artist in the whole world! Sounds beautiful as always, amazing looking guitar, and can't wait to hear the new music, man! 🙏❤ 🙌
Been going back n forth between Schofield, Marcus King, Jared James Nichols, and Kingfish...but I can't deny it anymore...Kirk is My fav living guitar player. Every note he plays is pure tastiness.
Love you Kirk.
That guitar is YOU......
Thanks Kirk! Welcome back!
Glad you’re busy! Nice guitar! 👀 So good to have your presence!

Welcome back Kirk! It’s a pleasure to hear you play as always and thanks for giving me some more things to try out on the old guitar 😎👍
Good to see you and hear those strings sing when you play. ✌🏻️❤️🌵
Gracias 🙏 maestro!!!!!
A great talent, and a warm wonderful soul! Thanks for sharing!
Missed you, bud. You're a positive force and we all need more positivity in our lives!
So exciting you're back cuz I luv your pretty melodic heartfelt lines that inspire me as a guitarist and you wonderfully perform them here with such useful instruction about playing chords to add to melodies when playing alone. Insightful and overjoyed for your return!
Love the veritone. Great to have you back
Good to hear and see you, stay safe!
So good having lessons from a master
Just started tunin' in Kirk... this is dope! From one 335-er to another... BB would be proud! 🙃
Luvvly new guitar Kirk, and it suits you perfectly.
That 345 sounds super sweet!
Kirk is awesome. Learn his licks you will be a happier guitarist.
Always enjoy your playing. That guitar is really cool.
Missed your lessons sir. Yesterdays Together session was superfun.
My oh my, what a coincidence... that's my dream guitar as well!
Love your new guitar! That has so many tonal possibilities!
We missed hearing you! And that guitar! Woah!
Sounds great keep it going ❤️💪🏻:)!
My favorite guitar right now, who’s not from Portland. Favorite from Portland is Lloyd Jones. Love the playing! Dig the attitude. Dude has the luckiest neighbors.🎸🍕✌️❤️
Beautiful guitar with a great sound, you got your mojo working, ciao da Milano
I feel like a novice when listening to you play. Really cool stuff.
I’m glad I’m not the only one!
Whereas you may feel like a novice, that thought will not help you tune in to your own capacity. Kirk felt like a novice at some point. What set him free is dropping that and believing in himself. We all proceed at a pace that protects our integrity.
This is where Kirk comes into his own as a teacher. He has already paid that dues, only to find that it was never necessary to pay in the first place. Just a self-judgement, that is just not of any use. It's a personal put down.
When you drop that, and just allow yourself to simply express, you play like a child, with no judgement. Judgement is an adult domain, and it's fucked up.
So, my friend, get loose. That's when music really happens. And, trust me, it will flow and make you cry with joy.
Kindest regards.
Sounds awesome Kirk! And the lick! Been lusting after an ES345 for a while especially with a varitone! Thank you!
You have a very nice sounding touch sensitive guitar! Love it! Those tones are great! All I could think was “It’s 3 o’clock in the mornin” 😀👌
Dang Kirk! That was smooth.
Missed ya brother, glad you're back!
Thanks for opening new Avenues. 2020 was a sucky year. Learned a lot from ya! Always enjoy your vids
Beautiful guitar. Those inlays raise it up from the common. I personally am not a Varitone fan, but you are getting a sweet tone. Bravo.
Man, so good!
Your truefire course is great! Enjoying learning from you. That guitar is sweeet!
I miss you and live gigs
Man, now i have to sell my Fender. Love your work sir.
sweet playing, and congrats on the sweet axe
Very cool! 👍🏻
Saw you playing at the Caravan Club in Melbourne, Australia back in 2019. You are a awesome player and a generous teacher.
Sweet lick. Beautiful guitar. That out of phase sound is very Freddy King 🎸❤️
" I Like this ( vdc ) present new Guitar Gibson .. Great Sounds and Playing Blues Style ". .. So' Good ... ☺😊😀/💙💙💙/👍✌👌👏👋
I'm trying to learn to play blues like that!
Peewee Crayton and T-Bone . I love it!
Nice guitar and great playing!
Hey KIrk , didn't know ya were gone. Ill keep my eye on ya from now on . Your smile my fellow guitar addict , your smile says it all . Also smart enough to leave your politics to yourself as a gentleman does. Big fan .
I must look at this video once again and can I have a question? Will you ever have a tour around Europe? Especially Czech republic? I really love blues and your music is a huge inspiration for me to play. There is so much soul and feel in your playing. I appreciate it. So thank you for another great blues monday sir Fletcher. Greetings from Czech republic, Olomouc 👍🎵🎸... And btw... Very very lovely guitar with tasty sound 😎
Missed you!
Do you use the varatone at all? Yes)
Thanx for these inspiring blues phrases... Will you be doing some gigs in the Los Angeles area?
Luv & cheers
I was just wondering where the wonderful Kirk had gone too 😁
😃
Have you got a name for that BEAUTIFUL new guitfiddle yet?
😎👍❤🖖
Love brother
Ogierea after my dear mother
@@kirkfletcher2845
That's perfect 😎👍❤🖖
Please oh please let this be an upcoming signature model
Thanks for the rundown Kirk, always enjoy the share. Cool tone. What kinda humms in dat ax
Kirk, That is quite a special guitar. Are you still using a 633 amp these days? I've been wanting one of those for some time. Now I'm envious of your amp and you guitar.
Welcome back!!!! Congratulations for this beautiful blonde
If that guitar goes into production, I'll have to have one.
This so weird but...listening to your guitar lines is like feeling BB King decided to return from heaven and landed inside of you :) Wonderful stuff Kirk. As always :)
I'm gonna have to start saving
Missed you
Beautiful guitar
The inlays look like they kinda match the color.....
I would love to hear Zappa sound s come outta that thing.
✌
Killer guitar killer player awesome tones! I can't help but wish this was gonna be an Epiphone because a M lab custom shop signature I'm sure will be 4k or even more which is way out.of my range but hey you can't have everything
Any info on this guitar?
Availability?
I know this must have been addressed in another video, but I can’t find it. What happened to the PRS guitars? Was that just a “paid for promotion” or were you just thinking about moving over to them but then came back to Gibson?
Glad to have you back! Love the videos
X
Hey Jay, nope no kind of paid promo. PRS are incredible guitars and I use them for different flavors. I'm a retro guy at heart and the 335 style is very dear to my heart for so many reasons.
@@kirkfletcher2845 ah I see! Good to know. The videos I saw of you with them sounded killer, as does this one with your custom! I just wondered why you’d stop playing them in recent videos.
I don’t get much time to play these days as I have a young family and these videos you give really inspire me. Please don’t stop!
What scale you play Kirk ?
I thought the varitone had an out of phase position. I have a Lucille and always thought it was outta phase in one of the positions. I have never played it in stereo yet after owing it for 20 + years. I also had Mr. King autograph it. 👍
Come back to Rosa's in Chicago soon Kirk. Play with Pete
Saw you on Norm's channel a few days ago. superb. Get Carlos Guitarlos and have a jammin session at Norm's.
the strongest guitarist and also free, I'm abandoning the BOSSANOVA return to the blues Grandissimo
So now you'll blame it on the blues?
Cheers
Don't abandon!! Mix them together!!!
Just build the blues into the bossa nova man. It's the same deal. Music with roots. Fuse them together. It rolls. Check it out. Be happy. In the fullness man. PS: Never abandon any kind of music my friend. You can cross it over and use it all, even classical, even choristry. If it's a tone, it's a tool. If it's harmony, it's a tool. If it's rythym, same deal. Same deal for all music. Play with it all and use what touches you, whatever it is. Best wishes buddy.
@@GuitarJawn I just said the same thing below and then saw you said it first. Cudos! You right!
@@christophedelamusiquedesar7878 Besides being a great musician you are a teacher and a profound person. thanks I hug you❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
kirk I need your advice, hope you read my mssg cause i am struggling:
should I make a carrer in blues guitar, although it is dissapearing and know i´m not the best guitar player in the block?
