Since Marcus King’s previous Rig Rundown in 2017, he’s made two albums-produced by the Black Keys’ Dan Auerbach-and scored a Grammy nomination. He’s also busted out his own signature Orange amp with an allusive name, and upped his profile, stepping from clubs to big halls. Not bad for a North Carolina kid with blues in his bloodline.
And, really, not entirely unexpected. King hit the scene in his teens as a full-blown virtuoso, playing club gigs at night and going to high school by day. He was initially championed by Warren Haynes, who was so impressed that he released the Marcus King Band’s 2015 debut, Soul Insight, on his Evil Teen Records label. And then the hard-playing young roots genre-blender rode that wind under his wings.
Before his September 29 gig at Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium, touring behind his recent release Young Blood, he entertained PG’s John Bohlinger-with some help with the details from guitar tech Cody Bates-with a close-up look at his current touring rig. Dig in!

seems like a dude you cold have a cold one with
I love how blues players can’t just call equipment by its normal name😂😂 they’re always like “ Got this Fiddel from Norms guitars and she purs. Plug her into this creamy sweet noise maker and she just sings when I play my tunes!!!”
Same thing with jazzers, the other day I walked up to some teenager working a venue and said “hey man, what’s the deal with this joint? It’s got some mojo”. Kid had no idea what I was asking, bass and sax player got a kick out of the interaction tho 😂
He's far more than just a blues player.
@@PMurray2694 Okay smart ass so I missed the s .
@@mbsnyderc yea but it’s the foundation for his entire sound. He is first and foremost a blue player. But, if you know anything about the blues, which you obviously do, it only takes about 45 seconds of a live performance to realize he’s the god damn whole bag of tricks lol
That’s what sets people like them apart from the rest of us mere mortals. Guys like me play guitars and amps and pedals… The cats imbue wire and wood with soul.
Literally SRV 2.0. His demeanor, humbleness, insane guitar chops, soulful voice and killer song writing hasn't been seen since we lost Stevie. One of the best musicians alive right now and he's young. Looking forward to decades of Marcus King
GTFO he doesn't sound anything like SRV
*Hendrix. Stevie was majorly influenced by Hendrix and Marcus king was influenced by freddie king, hendrix, srv, and others
2.0 means better version. There is only 1 SRV. There’s never been a better
This dude is amazing. Monster player, great writer, and killer singer. Just a humble country boy who can light a guitar on fire.
AMEN Ryan! This world use a few more of him!
God bless and take care...
Damned right
i think his southern charm adds to his whole old school ambience, seems like a solid dude, that 58' gibson at the beginning is a beauty
100% agreed, they’re my favorite type of Les Paul. I’d gone to a show last year where he used it on Rescue Me and absolutely crushed it on slide, it was a total showstopper.
His transition from note to note is the smoothest i may have ever heard. Seems like a good hang too.
You should hear him play slide! 😅
Seems like a good hang? Dear oh dear. The endless dumbing down of language.
@@mattmorris2867 don't be tedious
@@darbymckilkannoncaid3279 ohh sorry oh great one.
@@mattmorris2867 i told you to stop, but you're still doing it
I havent heard such soulful playing since the young Leslie West. Go see this man live!
I'm die hard Clapton devotee and last fall my wife surprised me to go see him in Nashville. It was a great show and then for the encore he brought Marcus out to jam with him and I went crazy and everybody around me was like "who is that guy???" and I was like "that's Marcus King and he's a BEAST!" It was a great moment and I'm sure Marcus was in hog heaven up there jamming with Clapton.
You obviously don't listen to much music then.
Cool gig Duck! Nice story.
And bless you to the hater person :)
@@officialmetalwill jealous turd
Humble. Raw. Talented. Lovely dude. Powerhouse voice. Reminds me of SRV in his gentle manner and ripping playing.
I love how Marcus really puts Soul into his chops man. It's not something you see as much nowadays. It seems the technical aspect overtakes the true feeling of the guitar player sometimes.
I could listen to this guy play all day. I love to listen to live performances of his band, but the produced albums, I just can't get into. They are missing all the magic. Someone please produce a fantastic live album! Keep Rockin Marcus!
Although the studio albums ARE good, as much as I hate to, cannot disagree with this statement. No one has yet to capture the mojo/feel of his live performances with any real authenticity as of yet. Hopefully soon.
On a side note, Marcus is one of the coolest down-to-earth artists I've ever met; and I've met quite a few over the years working as a contractor for local venues here.
The modern musician I would most like to see live, have a lesson with, and take out for a beer. What a player!
I've seen him live once (in my hometown!!) and I have tickets to see him again next march. But I made a promise to myself to go see him live EVERY chance I get 'till the day I'll kick the bucket.
To those that have yet to see Marcus Kings live you need to. The man absolutely shreds. From the MKB to his solo stuff. Him and his band melt your brain every time!
Been a fan of this kid since about when he got on the scene. I remember being blown away by that voice. Then seeing him on Jam in the Van had me sold. Luckily, I got to see him open up for Tedeschi Trucks and watch them perform together at the end.
And funny enough, he played a concert with Brent Hinds of Mastodon doing Black Sabbath covers. It should still be on UA-cam somewhere.
Got to see Marcus live earlier this year. Phenomenal picker and singer! Been waiting for an updated rig rundown from him. Great work John, thank you!
man! since the teaser I’ve been dying for this one to come out! Love his playing but he sure can sing amazingly aswell! 🎸🎸
I love when they play us through all their gear, Marcus is great!
Finally!! Been waiting for this one.. Love Marcus 😍
Dang, I love Marcus King's feel and skill. Followed him for so many years.
I always go out of my way to see Marcus live!
Marcus King is the King of Tone ! Smoking player and such a humble nice dude to boot ! Great rundown !
You’re awesome, Marcus. Amazing player and such a humble, down-to-Earth dude.
Marcus has a great sense of humor. Enjoyed the the video, thanks.
Great rig rundown. Such a cool dude and great player. Always enjoy John doing these rig rundowns. He should do them all! God bless and rock on 👍😎🎸
What a down to earth guy! Saw him last month, and it was a great show. Stellar playing and tone!!
His tone his mediocre and boring.
@@officialmetalwill as the great kurt cobain once said…..”Then why are you here?”
@Dill Castillo - you are a Dill 😮
Great interview as usual Senor' Bollinger, great playing by Marcus as well and thanks to Mr. King I got a new pedal in the mail coming from Tru-Fi pedals love the sound your getting and if you have any tour dates in the Miami area I got to come see your show. Time well spent fella's thanks a lot!!!
Love this man! ❤️
Another awesome rig rundown with John B! What an amazing player and wonderful personality! I’ll definitely be catching Mr Kings show if and when he makes it to the SF Bay Area!
Great to see a young gifted player keeping the 70's (blues)rock idiom alive. He has superb feel and technique, and a lovely vintage rocktone. I'm a tad biased as I play a Orange tubeamp myself.
It's amazing the musical content that is displayed just in this rig run down.
I will go see Marcus EVERY SINGLE TIME he comes to New England. Love those 8x10s!
Seeing him tonight and look what comes out. What a nice surprise.
The Greenville SC legend. Saw his dad playing downtown last week and you can tell it runs in the family. Really happy to see him killing it like this.
im so happy every time a new rig rundown comes out..... don't know what to say more than thank you!
He’s the absolute real deal!
The real deal at what? Mediocrity?
@@officialmetalwill If that makes you feel better, sure thing! Rest up!
@@officialmetalwill If that makes you feel better, sure thing! Rest up! 🙄
That's how you do a pedal rundown! Well done Marcus! Badass Tone Bro. Thank you.
Marcus is one of the, if not greatest, young musicians and artist out
Loved it! Marcus is my favorite. I just love his sound and style and he just seems like a heck of a guy to boot.
I live for rig rundowns like this 😎
Just sooo cool..what a player. Killer tone and feel...that damm chorus sounds wicked...!
Recently started listening to his music after watching the previous rig set up video last week and got damn I’m hooked. This kid can play, sing. He’s making incredible music
I really enjoyed this episode! Marcus King not only plays great, he's got the right gear, the looks as well as talks just like the old school guitar heroes of yesteryear. Can't wait to see what he does next. Also, I need one of those Orange 8x10 cabs. Wouldn't mind the MK Ultra either.
Great playing and a great RR!
Real deal living legend 🔥
That beautiful Red 345 sounds f'n incredible, cant wait to catch a live show sometime if Marcus ever makes it to my area!
Amazing gear, amazing person....love to see his live show one day
Tell him to come to Pittsburgh!
Just awesome. What a tone.
King is real...I appreciate that bro.
Great interview.
Great guitarist
Great video.
😎👍❤😞
Great player and a super humble kid. Love it
Haven't listened to this guys music but this is up there as one of the best ones I have seen. Gonna check out the music now thanks
Marcus is the ultimate triple threat....sings, writes, and SHREDS
That ES-345 sounds killer. Nowhere near my type of guitar but man it rocks!
What a great young picker. I'm 66 and have been playing since age 8. I'm actually not that into distorted guitar anymore, but occasionally. Anyhow, very fun to nerd out on all his gear. Unfortunately, there are a lot of people who ONLY nerd out on gear, and don't practice and grow their skills. But Marcus obvious doesn't have that problem. Congratulations on your success buddy.
That tone at the beginning is warm and crispy!
Wish we coulda seen Stephen and Drew’s rigs too! Marcus is incredible, and has a killing band
Love that Tyler Bryant and the Shakedown shirt!!! Awesome band!
Man! I am so bummed out! I have missed seeing this huge talent 3 times now! The last time it was due to having Plantar Fasciitis!!!! Marcus hope to see you in Boston again! I definitely have to meet you! Like your setup! You have a great sound! Like yourself, I am chasing the ultimate tone sound with my setup!!
Man!! This was good
Marcus King is the man, his music, his taste for guitars, his singing. When are you coming down to Chile? I would love to see him live one day
What a fantastic guitar player!
What a lovely guy, what a talent
Man has some chops. Props to you Sir.
Super cool episode as I was at the second show on that Friday night. Was amazing!!
I was at the Thursday night show and it was also amazing! Had a total fan boy moment walking down Broadway before the Marcus King show and saw Bohlinger playing at Layla's Honky Tonk. Made my wife take my pic with John in the background. I'm such a guitar nerd.
@@scottcampbell4159 Soooo cool . Can’t wait to go back to Nashville…..
Saw him in Byron Bay Bluesfest (Australia) last Saturday. Kingfish was there, Eric Gales was there, Buddy Guy the legend (now 86) was there, and so was Joe Bonamassa; among other great players. It was a night full of great music. It was fun!!!
His gear is SO perfect. Epic rig.
Great player Great voice
What a great guy. Love this.
Mesmerising player and all-round funny guy! Could watch him for hours
So good.
one of my fav guitarist.. great tone.. great skill.. great handling guitar's on stage fan from malaysia..
Can’t wait to see him here in Australia 🇦🇺 soon
Great! Thanks!!
Future legend!🎸🎸🎸🎸
Never heard of this guy but this is a great episode!
I love the “I only played on my dad and g dads old guitar” then “here’s my g pas guitar” pulls out a Gibson Es-335
One of my favourite modern guitar players although you could throw marcus back in the 60s/70s and nobody would know 🤘🏻
god damn! his playing is just so 🤌
Great stuff!!! Awesome player!!! :)
Such a badass player
The way he can incorporate jazzy modes into his leads is just 💦
Golly!!! What a guy. What a player!
Finally!!!!
Marcus! Smooth!
Really surprised at home much I enjoyed this.
You can tell he has some strong jazz fundamentals. What an incredible style. Big fan.
His second album is very jazz infused you should check it out
Love this guy!
got an email from a mate in indiana "y'gotta check out the marcus king band - he and the band are fantastic". he let me know cos he heard they were town (melbourne) and i hotfooted it to book tickets - and saw the band last night. WOW... what a gig!
Good times, good people, good rockin' thanks folks
That's my old Bandmaster! Great amp, happy to pass it along to Marcus a couple years ago when he was looking for a Bandmaster to do a transformer swap on and hot rod a bit
What a great guy Marcus King seems to be.
Superb
First time seeing MKB was 10 yrs ago at the handle bar in Greenville SC. Was in the front bar area real close and personal! I had no clue who he was even!! He spoke
To me and my date! Was first date and was looking for live music, and Handlebar had Marcus King playing!!! I was fukn amazed that the small bar area was full with Marcus King band was so up close and personal!!! He didn’t skimp on the music cause it was a small gig, there was Horns and it was full on get up!!! THAT DAY FORWARD BEEN A HUGE
FAN !!!!!
Real old school, amazing talent 👌👌
Kid is amazing.
What a class act!
Marcus King and Neal Francis took Mission Ballroom DOWN last week. MK is one of the best out there. Thank you for filming an updated Rundown for him.
Fantastic player!!!!
hahahahaha John's reaction at 9:33 is the funniest thing I think I've ever seen him do, because I think it's the exact same thing I did at that exact moment
Didn’t know what Marcus King was like before this. Dope guy
Amazing trew Guitar
