I have to admit, I have heard him hundreds of times but didn't know anything about him. since watching vids like these and understanding just how good he is and hes so down to earth and seems like a real genuine guy I am a huge fan of John 5!
Propz to him, for having the balls to put out a signature model guitar that real players can afford, in a sea of overpriced "case candy" signature models!!
John seems to be a so easy going guy! In all his interviews he's always so focus in every detail of his gear, like he's know it that in the other side there's a bunch of people hungry for information about gear and relationed stuffs. I never get tired of see his interviews and shows. I don't like to be named "fan" but with John 5 I have to say that I'm proud to be.
It’s kinda cool how he focuses on stuff like the TV’s in the cabs and the LED guitars, it kinda shows that he wants to be able to impress people with both musical creativity and creativity in his stage presence.
Just saw him on this tour at Trees Dallas and it was a killer show. He talks starting at 7:15 about thinking of ways to entertain the crowd and this was very evident during his entire set. He's a must see live IMO.
I got to meet he and Brian and John when he was still in Manson and both guys were just awesome to talk to. I love John 5 I think he is underrated as strictly a guitar player. The guy is an absolute monstet and can play almost anything. Amazing guy amazing guitarist
Thanks for uploading this!!! I've opened for John 5 at the whisky a go go twice and he is completely amazing, ive been following him since 06, he's been a big impact on my playing for sure. He is also one of the nicest guys to talk to and do a show with.
Custom ESP but yeah same thing. In fact, I think the only time I know of that Kirk played his Wavecaster was in the cunning stunts concert video for "Am I Evil".
Riggs used to have one made by fernandez guitars that he pointed pigs blood into mixed with everclear and would pour over himself and the crowd during the shows
You rock John!! I have seen him twice this past year , once at Louie G's in Fife, WA which was absolutely phenomenal and then a few months back at the Tacoma guitar festival at the Tacoma dome! Him and the creatures were amazing to say the least! His bass player Ian is fucking awesome! So was the drummer. One of the tightest groups I've ever seen! Can't wait until you come back to Washington!
Love John 5 and the Creatures! I was blessed to see them, front row, at a little opera house in Lebanon NH a few years back. Leb is the biggest and only "city" 1/2 hr drive from my home in the hills. It was the most fun and good hearted show I have ever been to , J5 and the Creatures have good vibes, decent people, amazing musicians.
Loved this video it was so awesome to see how John uses different guitars and equipment behind the scenes. His guitars for live concerts are cool as hell!. I bet he has the best guitar tech ever. Just want him to know that i think he is one of the greatest guitar players out there. Cant wait to hear him play live. Rock on John rock on! Mother Metal
John 5 is one of the most enigmatic musicians. He seems like from another planet, so nice he is! And he has so much love. I would love to see a documentary of his history and early years.
@@Ottophil I love my digital stuff. I don’t have a living quarters where I can play out of so-called “real amps” due to the noise they produce and the digital stuff is much more affordable.
0:52 Buckethead disappointed John 5 is just so cool, he is so good playing guitar, he is one of the artists that inspired me and made me want to learn how to play guitar, probably one of the best guitarists of all time
John 5 is an amazing human being. Amazing guitarist, interesting to listen to, and seems like a really nice and personable guy. He is a monster on a Tele, I can't think of any other player who encompasses the dynamic range of styles and sounds that he gets from the most minimal setup. He made a Tele fan out of me, I built a bunch of them when I started learning how to build guitars and it's turned into a great passion and second income and it started from watching a John 5 video at the Fender custom shop where they were filming the build of one of his signature Tele's, the one with the crazy paddle headstock. Right then I decided I wanted to build guitars and now a few years later I have my own custom shop, crazy how people can influence other people without even knowing it. I would love to build a guitar for John 5.
On the subject of not using earplugs, I don't know if it makes a difference, but at least he typically has more room (on a bigger stage). I was in a band and always stood just 2 feet away from the left side of the drum set, right were his crash was and I probably lost about 5% hearing out of my right ear, because I didn't wear earplugs. I never liked wearing earplugs, but I kinda wish I had.
I have a very good idea for a guitar that has never been done. The reason why is it will be multiple levels of challenge. The few I have told agree that if it worked would be awesome.
I'm prolly gonna catch some grief behind this question but is that the same hat Prince wore on stage for George Harrison's induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame? I've seen him wear this same hat on another interview.
Why does he mention 440hz tuning so much? What other frequency would he be using? Most tuners are already 440hz and not changeable. I have a tuner that allows me to change the hz. I tuned my tele to 432hz and it's noticeably better than 440
Who should we film with next?
marty friedman
Gorguts and Ulcerate
Direct Hit! Again
The boooiis from bodycount
Rings Of Saturn
"I buy it a seat on the airplane" (referring to his favourite tele) Now that's true love. Respect!
😀😀
Hope it's a window seat
What an awesome, humble, soft spoken guy. Thanks for uploading!
No problem!
I love John. He seems like a super intelligent musical prodigy but deep down just a sweet kid at heart.
He's a really awesome guy!
I have to admit, I have heard him hundreds of times but didn't know anything about him. since watching vids like these and understanding just how good he is and hes so down to earth and seems like a real genuine guy I am a huge fan of John 5!

USMC Patriot same here..he seems very approachable and a good person..I’m a new fan and watching allot of videos of j5
@@pandorasboxrehearsalstudio7365 Stryper is pretty good. Chill out, dude.
Propz to him, for having the balls to put out a signature model guitar that real players can afford, in a sea of overpriced "case candy" signature models!!

Thanks for watching.
You can easily say that John loves Telecasters
Thanks for checking out the video.
Hee Haw and all
yeah a little bit when he has a Buck Owens model you know he's a fan boy he loved he haw I thought that show was very cheesy but he lied it
It’s kinda cool how he focuses on stuff like the TV’s in the cabs and the LED guitars, it kinda shows that he wants to be able to impress people with both musical creativity and creativity in his stage presence.
😀
I was at that show and it was one of the best concerts I've ever seen!
🤘🤘

Glad you liked his recent show in Dallas! 😀
I got to meet he and Brian and John when he was still in Manson and both guys were just awesome to talk to. I love John 5 I think he is underrated as strictly a guitar player. The guy is an absolute monstet and can play almost anything. Amazing guy amazing guitarist
He's a great player!
It shows the love and art he has with his designs. Awesome video
So glad you liked it!
This guy's the fuckin man. Love his humbleness and attention to details like "entertaining the audience" - a true performer!!

John 5 is a very cool dude. Down to earth and he keeps it real with his fans. I know because I've met him and have remained in contact.

Yup, really nice guy.
Those guitars were jawdropping I like the light-up guitar ,the laser guitar ,and the glow in the dark guitar were love John 5
🤘
That lava tele is just like Kirk Hammett's Wavecaster.
Custom ESP but yeah same thing. In fact, I think the only time I know of that Kirk played his Wavecaster was in the cunning stunts concert video for "Am I Evil".
Riggs used to have one made by fernandez guitars that he pointed pigs blood into mixed with everclear and would pour over himself and the crowd during the shows
I saw John and his band in NYC and he does put on an entertaining show.

Dude I'm all for real amps and real gear, but don't underestimate the digital stuff.

6:40 is that a tone fluid in that guitar?

Total gear lust, except for the evil strap, but to each their own.
Thanks for watching.
Random question, where do you get that coat or a coat like it?
hey just a suggestion could you guys maybe do a Gary Holt gear masters
Ultimately, it's up to him, not us.
I have a very good idea for a guitar that has never been done. The reason why is it will be multiple levels of challenge. The few I have told agree that if it worked would be awesome.
He is so friendly, and cute 😍
Thanks for watching.
I'm prolly gonna catch some grief behind this question but is that the same hat Prince wore on stage for George Harrison's induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame? I've seen him wear this same hat on another interview.
Not sure.
John is the best
John 5 is the Man
He's great!
quite surprised there's no chorus pedal!
🤔
I was trying to find a video of Rob Zombie's guitar that was filled with fake blood he'd drink out off.. But that Aitfreeze guitar is sick.
Why does he mention 440hz tuning so much? What other frequency would he be using? Most tuners are already 440hz and not changeable. I have a tuner that allows me to change the hz. I tuned my tele to 432hz and it's noticeably better than 440
John 5: here's this really cool guitar gots lasers and shit also turns over
Guitar = duct tape
😱
John 5 rocks
He sure does!
I got the "Pickin' and Grinnin'" reference. That was the joke section to Hee Haw.
Thanks for watching!
