Underrated, under the radar not very much talked about or appreciated.
john 5 is a badass guitar player. love the solo albums. really underrated guitar player!!!
And he makes it look so damn easy its crazy
@@Wbk-Reaper it IS easy if you practise hard. Come on dude, dont be such a asshole and play the fucking damn guitar!
Its funny seeing that guitar all bright and new , this is his favorite guitar and he has put some miles on it now since then lol
Extremely accomplished musician
Great talent
Like everyone else here (I assume), I'm a guitar nerd and love innovative players that broaden my playing horizons. In the last few years I've really gotten into a lot of Buckethead stuff and only recently have delved into the John 5 catalogue and man, I wish I had crossed that line much sooner. Great, great player with a knack for explaining and seems like a down to earth dude. I guess my comment doesn't have a point besides for if you like John 5 and haven't given Buckethead a chance, do so, so that you don't have that "I've been missing out" feeling that I'm experiencing now with J5.
I think he just didn't had the opportunity to show his full splendor. With manson and rob zombie he didn't/did not require to use all of his technique.
A true gentleman dope free and quite possibly one of the top 10 guitarists in the world in my opinion
Really cool humble guy, was so impressed when i saw the interview where John was talking about Eddie...
john is a fucking genius
By far my most go to guitarist. Guitar freak!
Wow! Much respect to you, John. I struggle with learning how to play. I only know a few basics.
Cool rockin John 5...a new fan-atic!
Best Lesson EVER!!!!
What an INCREDIBLE player!!!!! ⚡️⚡️🎸🎸🎸⚡️⚡️
Amazing lesson.
I thought i already liked this video!
holy shit the tapping sounds beautiful
so good
JOHN 5 THE GOD OF GUITAR !!! I LOVE HIM !!
that fucking tone! its beautiful
He is good and the notes are clear and clean.
He lost me there for a min, but pulled me back in with the count chocula pick. Lol I can get the pick, but the rest i'll leave to John.
Really really good guitar player ! Wow !
Wonder how he is getting the harp sounding tone when he taps, super cool
John 5 is the master....
Cool and yes nice tone you have there.
he's a very very special guitar player.
John 5 doesn't need to stretch his pinky for higher notes, higher notes stretch to reach John 5!
NICE 😂💯
The real MVP was the Count Chocula pick. Only way that man can shred is to be surrounded by the things that means so much to him. Shred yourself. 😂
ya know, that kinda thing
John 5 is great guitar
A great example of tapped rhythm and lead would also be the late great
Michael Hedges.
And there you have a cool idea for a new song for your next record! :)
wao its amazing!!!
Nice
The tapping he's doing ijs from "This is my rifle"
3:27 toca this is my rifle.
Whats the Riff at 1:27??? I've heard him play it on that That Metal Show
Sumer Goel in Villisca song, on careful with that axe album
Yes ; )
what about that riff from 1:21? Whats the song?
John "Youknow" 5
Criss qui est bon !
those arpeggios played slow sound like "hotel California" haha
John 5 is the boss
Hmmm, so that is how les played the bass line to Jerry was a racecar driver??
1:23 woah woah woah hold on, how did you do that?
third bridge technique.
hitting the strings behind the nut. doesnt work with floyd rose locking guitars.
how he makes it sound like that? no idea.
A lesson on making sure I know I suck
you can't see he has humbuckers in both pickup positions?
Nothing to it.
If you're John 5.
How can he do all those things!!!
I could tap like that too if I had that count Dracula guitar pic
pinball wizard!
1:25 how does he make that noise?
Kyle Richards this is the harmonicwhen you play the strings on the neck
He did that by strumming the strings past the nut. It’s not hard. Unlike most of the things the does! lol
Thank god for the speed settings TH-cam has included in every video XD
Conde Chocolatin T-shirt?
How the hell does he hit that harmonic? Looked like he tapped it behind the nut.
right????
What's the tuning of the tapping lick
standard tuning
1:25 Raking strings behind the nut...he does it all the time..sounds different because a quick brush with several fingers..he has song called "Behind the Nut Love" where he bends/flexs notes with the open string between nut and tuners..ever heard Van Halen "Running With The Devil", the opening guitar sound before riff, is same thing...Do your homework kiddies...nothing new on guitar, just how YOU do it..two hand tapping rhythm- check Stanley Jordan or Tony Levin (King Crimson) on "the Stick"
I assume he's hitting the strings behind the nut.
*is
Oh jeez I feel like a potato playing a guitar after this 😔 he's awesome 😎
Technically, the keyboard is a string instrument. You can describe the act of playing it as percussive, but at the root it is a piano. The piano makes sound by vibrating strings. The keyboard is a simulation of this and often has effects stacked into the simulation.
Hey Guitar nerds how the fuck a natiral harmonic is played t 4:13?with a pick?like how is that possible?
Count Chocula...which is even cooler :)
it sounds cleaner doing the taps
Ill never reach that skill, not until I sell my soul to the devil :(
Going down to the crossroads...
Speed comes naturally. Keep going. practise and belief. Namaste
not with that attitude
Well... what are you waiting for? Anyway you are not using your soul
deym his guitar sounds like a flute :O
Nice makeup.
This is muy rifle
"don't forget to use your cool count Dracula guitar pick"
that would sound horrible using a Booo Berry guitar pick I bet
John Wade lololol!!!
Y'know.
Great video, except for the annoying buzz, nobody at total guitar has a ground lift? Audio fail.
y'know?
USE YOUR FUCKING PINKY J5! -PAUL GILBERT
go go power rangers??
I am a piece of shit.
I am not...worthy!
Why does he always have to dress like a fud though?
He doesnt
unreal
Ya ...um i think i got it
....uhhh can u just show me Smoke on the Water one more time?
