Many guitarplayers become so fast, that when they show their skills - it stops sounding good. But not so here. It is amazing to see and wonderful to hear.
I used to think that I hated blues until I realized there were sub-genres of blues. Come to find out that I do like Delta blues... the darker and swampier the better. Justin is the only modern blues player that I like. Other than him, you have to go old school...i.e. Leadbelly, Blind Lemon and Son House. Thank you for some new swampy blues!
Sgt, check out The Hill Country just above The Delta. You're in for a treat. First off, you must listen to Mississippi Fred McDowell. The most RAW slide master you'll ever hear with an unchanged sound from his Memphis Street playing in the 1920s till his death in 72. For the most part he wasn't discovered until 59.
The heir to Johnny Winter. I'm a hard-core blues guy across all genres with Delta, Hill Country, Swamp, and early amplified Chicago as my favorites. Justin Johnson plays with that nasty raw sound and is in complete control of it.....that is mastery of the instrument. I'd like to hear him play with all the recording gear old 40s-50s tube and the microphones all hi impedence. Oh hell yeah!
Right on..loved traditional blues..BB..lived in New Orleans twice n NOBODY mentioned Delta Blues..I LOVE HIS MUSIC!! Hendrix n JJ are my guitar heroes!!!
Not my favorite of Mr J.J's covers. That being stated, he is a FREAK'N GENIUS! I hope and pray he live a long life and continues to bless the world with his unique skills, perspective and music. BEST AND PEACE
@@justinjohnsonlive Unfortunately my wallet with both debit cards social security card and drivers license and everything else important is M.I.A. right now so I couldn’t pull the trigger even though I want to 🤷🏻♂️
My mom took me to 2 guitar lessons as a kid, i wish she ket me going, then as i got older life got in the way, now im retired at 37 bought a couple guitars and have all the time in the world to practice, these videos definitely show me the style i want to play, but just learning the basics and theory right now
Dude decorating the backround with the tuning components from inside of an old piano Idve never thought of that in a million yrs thats too kewl. Been dialed into your mad skills a couple yrs now I wanna say. Keep it up dude your legendary. And cheers from San Diego
Man I have lived and loved guitar music all my life. We all have our tip top favorites, and we know when an exceptional guy is on the strings , as one with the instrument body and soul and i saw that here. You truly have a gift you don't learn this from a book, this is far deeper. Do you have any albums on sale Justin.
Every time I see the words swamp and slide on his videos, I know I'm in for a great experience
Drain the swamp!
No doubt.
100% click everytime
You know it
Dude seriously lol always great

I grew up around back porch and bar room musicians. A couple of them told me the same thing: "If you ain't CLEAN, you ain't fast."
Slow is precise, and precise is good. Therefore, uh...
Just what we needed.
Keeping that swamp blues alive great job Justin
My 2 favorites, Justin and the Resonator
❤❤JJ❤❤
JJ is talented beyond words. Justin we need a livestream concert !! 🙏🏽
This will be awesome to crank up in the car :) Let the neighbors enjoy it, too
I don't play the guitar or know anything much about guitars but that is what I call COOL. ❤
GOD put a guitar in my hands @ 56yo to break alcoholism n JJ keeps me motivated!! 😊 Love 40 plus of his songs and counting..
Listen to your stuff all the time. Keep on keepin on brother
Great Afternoon pick me up.🙏👍😎
Loving that swampy sound.

Have you checked out Derek Trucks?

Master of strings and the soul of the blues! ♥️🔥🎯
I AGREE 100%
That might be the baddest mother effin stuff you've ever put out!!!! 🔥🔥🔥
If the devil ever challenged humanity to a guitar duel, I’m picking JJ.
He’s likely the best guitarist alive right now.
Where do you think JJ got his hands? 😉
😂
There are no words to describe this man's phenomenal abilities.
I could listen to this style of music all night long...........
As could I
Justin, you kill it! This man plays with his soul❤❤❤

Would love to be sitting around a bonfire having a cigar and bourbon with this dude playing!!
Good old Hendrix would be proud, at the age of 81 ;-)
Right on..loved traditional blues..BB..lived in New Orleans twice n NOBODY mentioned Delta Blues..I LOVE HIS MUSIC!! Hendrix n JJ are my guitar heroes!!!
Been a long time since I said “damn” watching a guy play guitar.
Not my favorite of Mr J.J's covers. That being stated, he is a FREAK'N GENIUS! I hope and pray he live a long life and continues to bless the world with his unique skills, perspective and music. BEST AND PEACE
JJ shines on this guitar like no other. I’m convinced that there is something mystical about those Little Crows… maybe because I want one SO bad
Hi Jason.. we’re down to the last 2, and they’re on sale 🤘

Love to see dual between Justin and Mark knopler.
Keep going. I listen to you. A lot. And strangely, I learn. Thanks!
Have y'all seen/heard him play a three-string shovel guitar ? It's mindblowingly awesome !
That particular has a very unique sound.
I've got a Delta-6 resonater with a P-90 that hangs on the wall too much. I hear this and it must come down for the night.
I’m am always impressed. Your videos are fantastic.
Great, fantastic phenomenal but at the speed of 1.75
CONGRATS👍💪👌😎
