You meet with an instrument , and the dialogue goes deeper and deeper , cause your soul meets her soul. And that makes the conversation between you two moire and more interesting , more passionate . This is the magic interaction which is called Love .
I'm so inspired by the way you play. The Feel, the Dynamics of it and I genuinely want to play more thanks to your videos. Continue being you, you're amazing. Cheers!!!
Ive found your channel 3 days or so ago, and since then ive been doing that 1/2, full, 1/2 full bends every other phrase... Youre in my head! Cheers from Brazil!
Chris, your playing is always inspirational. Very interesting right hand techniques. I'll have fun trying to incorporate some of that into my playing.... 335 is icing on the cake. I have a '66 as well though in sunburst. Agree it is really a fun to play instrument that I don't pull out enough.
Stunning playing and tone. WOW. And thank you for starting - and finishing, your video with MUSIC, keeping the talking to a minimum. Very very tasteful, all around.
Tried to learn and play this wonderfull piece of art on my guitar. Took me one hour for the first 18 seconds and had to cut it there. Damn this will take me a lifetime 😏 you are an amazing player mr. Buck
Came here because I just got a 69 cherry 335 and can’t get enough of them. That playing at the beginning of the video blew my mind. Who are your biggest influences would you say?
I wondered why I didn't get any notifications about your videos. Found it automatically unsubbed! Strange! I subbed again, right away! Don't want to miss any more videos and your awesome playing!👍😎🎸🎶
I notice that when a player who's main guitar is a strat, when they play an entirely different guitar it seems to coax a little something extra that you just don't normally do. It's still you but with a little twist if you know what I mean Chris. Truly brilliant playing and tone as every Friday.
+andrew broadhead Fender guitars in general make you work harder to get what you want from them (especially Teles), but the reward is also greater for the player. When you go to a Gibson after a Strat or Tele, it's like being let put of jail! Gibson guitars play much easier and it seems like you can reach places on the fretboard not usually in reach if you're used to Fenders. And it is true. I think that's why long time Fender guys feel more adventurous on an easier playing guitar, like a Gibson. I grew up on Gibsons and when I got my first Strat, it took a while to under- stand the differences and let a Strat be a Strat. You gotta work it. Now when I play a Gibson it feels luxurious and smooth. But I'm a Strat guy forever, at this point. They make you better because they're not easy! I know you get what I'm saying.
@@larrygeetar9309 totally know Larry, I played heavy rock /metal for 20 years on ibanez guitars, then just got tired of it all. After a few years off I started playing again and wanted to make a total change to my approach and sound so not to get stuck in the same old ruts. SRV and strat solved that for sure, the fenders are a bit of a fight but I like it and a strat certainly gets more out of me. I payed an ibanez not long ago and it felt like a very fast car that I just didn't want to drive anymore, it just felt sterile, you know what I mean right 🎸👍enjoy your strat pain Larry
That is just one beautiful guitar that just sings when you work your magic on it. A perfect combination I'd say even though I'm a Fender man myself. I've never played a 335 (yet) so I need to pop over to see my Mums cousin as he has a lovely example along with a fine collection going back to his gigging days in the sixties. A gorgeous episode. All the best, mate.
Thanks, Chris. Yes it was a wonderful day, and even after nearly 20 years together it feels even more special now we're married! It was a magical week which began on that brilliant night at the Cluny.
The '66 335 is a great guitar. My former band mate has one he's owned since '73 when he bought it off another former band mate of mine. Lovely feel and tone.
Good stuff. However, there could be a more impassioned way of reviewing this guitar. As an owner of an all original 66 myself, one could further say it's just fucking mindblowing. It changed my life. I swear this thing rarely goes out of tune and yet I play it all the time. The PAF's never let me down, the neck is flawless, and It just looks so good as well. BTW I'm a huge fan of that trapeze/nylon saddle that is notable on a 66. Some consider these to be lesser traits. In short, with all the sweat, blood, and abuse this thing has had, it still holds like it will never die. I encourage every guitar player from around the world to find a way to own a vintage gibson 335. They are going up in value and it's for a damn good reason.
Oh dude. That intro was freaking smooth and perfect! Well, i don't know about perfect. I woulda liked to hear you use the pick instead of the fingers just a bit more. But close to perfect for me. Lol. If i could have any guitar right now, it would probably be an original 60's Gibson 335. I want one so bad with the original pickups
I have the same guitar with the Lyre engraved tail piece. Bought it from a guy who managed a convenience store in 1986 for five hundred bucks. Best money I ever spent.
Nice chops man!!! Great tone- It's great to hear someone do justice to an instrument like this. I also own a 335- except for the heavy weight and zero balanced body- I totally love it. Gibson changed by mid 90's the pots to 300k instead of 500K. In my opinion the 300K are pure glory as they are warmer and richer sounding, instead of the 500k's- which have a higher output that sometimes end up being too bright and harsh- But well... it's a matter of taste. People who owns a Gibson and it's not a vintage-don't-you-ever-dare-to-make-a-mod one I recommend to try the 300K's in the volume knobs, it only get's better for me. Kudos man!
Such an interesting tonal voice - not just darker but richer with higher output than a fender without losing as much definition as some les paul's can. Great collector piece you certainly won't lose your loot on an instrument like that.
Your comment about neck pups. I have two modern Les Paul’s, a Collector’s choice no 8 (the beast) and an aged 2016 58 true historic. The true historic pups have lower output and the bridge pup is so much more muddy than the burstbuckers in the beast which basically sounds like a souped up Tele. The neck pup has loads of clarity. I’ve always said that you’re not a real guitarist until you get a 335, I’ve not reached that point yet but I keep trying them, one day I’ll pull the trigger on one.
Top notch Chris ... guitar is awesome as well ! (looking forwards to seeing a vid from you soon of a version 2 pedal from our friend Scotty !) Cheers mate !
I was in 8th grade when my dad bought a new 1966 cherry gibson 335 , thats been a while. Dads gone but his guitar is still here and n a very safe place for my daughter 1 day. Kinda ironic,, she plays drums, dad hated drums.LOL
Watching the beginning of this video I found myself backing away suddenly for fear of getting hit by the headstock of this 335...LMBO!!! Great tones and playing BTW.
Yep,it´s on my bucket list!! Would prefer a early 60´s 355 if i had the cash, but a mid to late 60´s is on my list. It´s a must have guitar! Great vid :-)
Holy sweet mother of semi hollow GLORIOUS tone nuggets, that guitar is beautiful!!!! It's official...I'm jealous lol! Awesome acquisition Chris, hope you enjoy it for many decades to come. Oh, and as consciousness altering as Eric was on his 335, that's not where my own personal life-long jones for that glorious look and sound came from. The first time I recall seeing anyone wrangling one these amazing axes properly was when I first saw the Woodstock movie back in the mid 70s...Alvin Lee, Ten Years After, young mind thoroughly BLOWN!
Ha! Started watching and immediately thought, Christ, that phrasing is quite something....read the description-it’s Chris Buck. Ah ok. That makes sense. Superb playing man.
Hey Jacob. Absolutely; it's direct into Guitar Rig 5 within Logic Pro X. The only pedal was an Origin Effects Cali76 which I used to boost the signal, not to compress it as such. Within Guitar Rig, it was their Orange amp emulation (it's called Citrus I believe!) set to a mildly dirty setting. As soon as I sort out a better audio interface, I'll be doing a dedicated video on my Guitar Rig settings :)
Chris: I have both a 335 and 339. The 335 is a 2014 w/'57 Classics. The Gibson sticker inside the body of the 339, with the serial number, says 2019. The 339 has a number only serial number on the back of the headstock, and barely legible, made in USA. It was also advertised at the guitar shop as a 2019. The 339 has MHS humbucker pickups, so I assume is was manufactured in Memphis. Both sound superb and the difference is so subtle I am hard pressed to discern a difference. I prefer the smaller sized 339, as the heavier bodied 335 has a tendency to cause the neck to swing upwards. I am constantly having to push the guitar down level, while playing, its disconcerting.
What a beautiful sounding guitar with all the low grade versions of guitars out now maybe you should do a review of guitars to stay away from i got lucky with a Kramer NiteV which i love but stringing it is a pain! lol
Hey Chris! You are so smooth no matter what guitar you are playing. Do you find a different radius, neck width, frets effect your playing or do all guitars feel the same to you a la Jeff Beck? Thank you!
C.J. Blake Hey C.J. Thank you man! I wouldn’t go so far as to say I don’t notice, but it never bothers me. Funnily enough, I was having this conversation yesterday with the owner of a ‘56 Strat with a really pronounced V profile neck (next week’s episode...). For me, being a good musician is about being able to adapt to your circumstances and getting the best of them. Yes, this ‘66 has a pretty thin neck and yes, I’d probably prefer a 50s profile, but part of the fun for me is drawing the best out of situations that aren’t 100% to your liking 🙂
Nice video. Lovely sound and technique. I had the ES 335 TD. Sunburst. Bought it second hand in 78. 2500F or £250. Don't know the year but I'm sure it was from the late 60s. I played it in the middle of the punk era and thought it didn't look cool. I swapped it for a 64 strat which I still have today. Wish I still had it though.
Great playing and very nice guitar. I have a nerdy observation/question tho, what is the action height at the 12th fret of your low E, it looks low but high at the but and first seem to go sharp?
Cheers Smitty. It's direct into Guitar Rig 5 within Logic Pro X. The only pedal was an Origin Effects Cali76 which I used to boost the signal, not to compress it as such.

Hi Chris, I just found out about your channel recently and I have been hooked ever since on your beautiful guitar tone (hence I'm going to buy your signature pickups). I noticed that in nearly all of your guitar pedal demo video's, you seem to use Guitar Rig software for your basic amp tone. Do you think we will ever see a video of your Guitar Rig software setup? Thanks.
Saw JD Simo some time ago, check him out if you don't know him. Amazing player and singer. He was using his 1962 ES-335 through a Fender Super Reverb, no pedals except a Wah and sometimes a fuzz. INSANE tone! For the last song he had to switch to his backup 335, which was some sort of custom shop thingy, which sounded noticably worse, less woody and more "sterile", if that makes sense.
Even though I'm well old enough to be your grandfather, you're my new hero.
Haha! Thank you very much :)
The sight and sound of that 335 is truly "incredible." Love your style.
Mate I’ve been playing and listening for a very long time and your sensitivity, note choice and phrasing is remarkable.
You meet with an instrument , and the dialogue goes deeper and deeper , cause your soul meets her soul. And that makes the conversation between you two moire and more interesting , more passionate . This is the magic interaction which is called Love .
Incredible playing , fantastic guitar. And literally PERFECT TONE!
Great guitar! I have a 1999 red 335 and I love every minute with it.
I'm so inspired by the way you play. The Feel, the Dynamics of it and I genuinely want to play more thanks to your videos. Continue being you, you're amazing. Cheers!!!
Anand Thyagarajan Thank you so much Anand! 🙂
An instrument is only as good as its player and that is an Awesome Instrument!
Your playing really IS phenomenal. Thank you for sharing!
That playing at the beginning is just delightful
Very nice demo, sweet sound and excellent playing. Just goes to show it doesn't
have to be loud to be good. 335s are iconic guitars and deservedly so.
this is the best tone i've heard you, period.
That Pedal show featuring Pete and now your Friday Fretworks. What a way to unwind for the weekend. Beautiful playing as ever. See you in Brighton!
Haha. Definitely mate, looking forward to it! :)
Ive found your channel 3 days or so ago, and since then ive been doing that 1/2, full, 1/2 full bends every other phrase... Youre in my head! Cheers from Brazil!

Nice playing dude. Yeah the 335 is a special guitar.
I salute your good taste in licks and instruments.
Great guitar and really great playing - well done ... I'm gonna buy one now
Wow dude, I just discovered your channel and your videos are stunning! Keep it up brother!
Tried to learn and play this wonderfull piece of art on my guitar. Took me one hour for the first 18 seconds and had to cut it there. Damn this will take me a lifetime 😏 you are an amazing player mr. Buck
Really sweet playing on a gorgeous axe. Beautiful!
That was just incredible.
I find the tone of ES-335s exquisite. This one is a fine example!
Right in the feels, again.
You re opening impro was just perfect !
Beautiful Guitar and by the way your playing is absurdly good. Thanks for sharing
Great Playing Chris, Really enjoyed! I Have and love the 335's too, but only wish i had that one !
God Bless,
Jeff ( Toronto )
Umm, I think that you answered that question within the first 20 seconds of your playing...Wow! Great stuff!
great playing, increadible tone and feel, thx for the inspiration!
Came here because I just got a 69 cherry 335 and can’t get enough of them. That playing at the beginning of the video blew my mind. Who are your biggest influences would you say?
Wedding ring and wrist watch ...and he plays well even with all that metal on his hand ! Outstandind!
Sounds flipping lovely, they're not quite as expensive as I thought either, so that's a yes. :)
Great tone from your fingers Chris, you've inspired me to leave the pick down the back of the sofa!
Beautiful playing as always Chris, and a beautiful guitar as well. Hope you are good. 🎸🤘🏻👍🎸🤘🏻👍🤘🏻👍🎸
Cheers Simon! :)
I wondered why I didn't get any notifications about your videos. Found it automatically unsubbed! Strange! I subbed again, right away! Don't want to miss any more videos and your awesome playing!👍😎🎸🎶
DAMN, you can play that geetar.. Touch, feel and technique.. you got it bro! Cheers! :-)
Perfect timing as I just picked up a 68 ES335TD and it's spectacular.
Awesome stuff Chris, this makes you play differently, more bluesy, less of your more common licks. That's what a great guitar should do. Love it.
That great playing is Derek Trucks esque, without the slide! Fantastic tone as well.
I notice that when a player who's main guitar is a strat, when they play an entirely different guitar it seems to coax a little something extra that you just don't normally do. It's still you but with a little twist if you know what I mean Chris. Truly brilliant playing and tone as every Friday.

Your touch and ear is surely worth some hype - great playing and recording...
Lovelly playing! Jusr brilliant... awesome tone!
The '66 335 is a great guitar. My former band mate has one he's owned since '73 when he bought it off another former band mate of mine. Lovely feel and tone.

Great playing and awesome guitar Chris. I have the exact 1966 ES-335. Love the cherry color and tones…
What gorgeous playing
Incredible playing, you're inspiring me to practice more :)
Thank you so much Eoghan. Practice is never a bad thing :)
Top notch Chris ... guitar is awesome as well ! (looking forwards to seeing a vid from you soon of a version 2 pedal from our friend Scotty !) Cheers mate !
bvninja Cheers Beve! Yeah, I can’t wait to get the Manticore! ☺️

Nice playing! I have a 1963 335!
You are my new guitar hero, fantastic playing, super.........From Italy, ciao.
GuitarSBULLO Grazie mille 🙂
Watching the beginning of this video I found myself backing away suddenly for fear of getting hit by the headstock of this 335...LMBO!!! Great tones and playing BTW.
Beautiful playing
Yep,it´s on my bucket list!! Would prefer a early 60´s 355 if i had the cash, but a mid to late 60´s is on my list. It´s a must have guitar! Great vid :-)
Beautiful guitar,tone and playing! \m/
Holy sweet mother of semi hollow GLORIOUS tone nuggets, that guitar is beautiful!!!! It's official...I'm jealous lol! Awesome acquisition Chris, hope you enjoy it for many decades to come.

Cheers man. And absolutely - I'm sure Alvin inspired a lot of people to pick up 335s!
Alvin Lee - people forget he was the unexpected star of Woodstock. A great player.
Chris man you are so smooth you bring this es335 to it's full potential. Should of finished by kicking over the amp Michael J Fox style.
Ha! Started watching and immediately thought, Christ, that phrasing is quite something....read the description-it’s Chris Buck. Ah ok. That makes sense. Superb playing man.
jfergey Haha. Thank you man!
Couldn't agree more - feel and phrasing in spades, and the raw talent to coax it out of the guitar..... sublime.
Would you mind writing the gear used or signal chain you are playing through.. ? Thanks! Sound awesome
Hey Jacob. Absolutely; it's direct into Guitar Rig 5 within Logic Pro X. The only pedal was an Origin Effects Cali76 which I used to boost the signal, not to compress it as such.

Great playing, great guitar👍🎸
This is some of the best playing and tone I’ve ever heard. Really beautiful stuff. Do you have any recordings?
Absolutely fucking awesome playing.
Just a great guitar and a great guitarist ...stunning tones
Thank you Gerry!
Alvin Lee, 10 Years After....
...thats why I dig 335s.
Worth the hype? Hell, yeah!
Lovely sound !!
Chris: I have both a 335 and 339. The 335 is a 2014 w/'57 Classics. The Gibson sticker inside the body of the 339, with the serial number, says 2019. The 339 has a number only serial number on the back of the headstock, and barely legible, made in USA. It was also advertised at the guitar shop as a 2019. The 339 has MHS humbucker pickups, so I assume is was manufactured in Memphis. Both sound superb and the difference is so subtle I am hard pressed to discern a difference. I prefer the smaller sized 339, as the heavier bodied 335 has a tendency to cause the neck to swing upwards. I am constantly having to push the guitar down level, while playing, its disconcerting.
Outstanding! Are You aware the magnets have a measurable decline in magnatism over years?
Almost 2 years later, but I truly hope you still own this guitar. It suits your playing style.
what a badass guitar player!
Amazing tone
What a beautiful sounding guitar with all the low grade versions of guitars out now maybe you should do a review of guitars to stay away from
i got lucky with a Kramer NiteV which i love but stringing it is a pain! lol
Yeah Man !!!
wow the pickups are superbly expressive . Your dynamic playing abilities are a great combination🍻
Thank you Lou!
Hey Chris! You are so smooth no matter what guitar you are playing. Do you find a different radius, neck width, frets effect your playing or do all guitars feel the same to you a la Jeff Beck? Thank you!
C.J. Blake Hey C.J. Thank you man! I wouldn’t go so far as to say I don’t notice, but it never bothers me. Funnily enough, I was having this conversation yesterday with the owner of a ‘56 Strat with a really pronounced V profile neck (next week’s episode...). For me, being a good musician is about being able to adapt to your circumstances and getting the best of them.

Awesome! Thank you for the thoughtful response.
Nice video. Lovely sound and technique. I had the ES 335 TD. Sunburst. Bought it second hand in 78. 2500F or £250. Don't know the year but I'm sure it was from the late 60s. I played it in the middle of the punk era and thought it didn't look cool. I swapped it for a 64 strat which I still have today. Wish I still had it though.
Love your playing! Such a flow, like it runs off the frets. I'm worried about your headstock hitting the camera though!
Geirmund Sjødin Haha. Yeah, sorry about that. I didn’t realise I was moving around so much. It made me feel a little seasick watching it back! Haha.
Chris, when you’re finger picking, are you using any other fingers to pluck the treble strings other than your thumb and middle?
Great playing and very nice guitar.
I have a nerdy observation/question tho, what is the action height at the 12th fret of your low E, it looks low but high at the but and first seem to go sharp?
@Buck And Evans
How do you record your playing? It sounds great, as always.
Cheers Smitty. It's direct into Guitar Rig 5 within Logic Pro X. The only pedal was an Origin Effects Cali76 which I used to boost the signal, not to compress it as such.

You've got a good one there. Nut width?
Have you tried new signature editions? Rich Robinson's for example (or Luther Dickinson's)???
you play beutifull and i really like your creamy overdrive.what amp and speakers are you using?
I think he is using a victory amp
Beautiful intro!

Nothing like old Gibsons
I had a 66 335 and it was worth the hype. Best guitar I had in my 63 years. I've owned over 30 guitars.
Mhmm I got an epi 339 I'm about to upgrade pickups and wiring in. Suggestions on pickups?
Luvly playin
