    Anyone else think it's awesome that Jack sounds as good on a Bullet Squire Strat as he does on a $200k LP?

      Jack Pearson is proof positive that if you can play, you can play, if you can’t, you can’t. It really doesn’t matter whether you play a $90 guitar or play one that costs more than a house. If it’s set up correctly, it’s all about the player
      Who could of ever imagined of someone blowing the roof off of Elizabeth Reed on a pawnshop Fender Squire that cost less than $100?

    A '59 is about the price of a nice house in the suburbs; Jack sounds every bit as good on his $99 Squier Bullet. What a bunch of nonsense all the cork-sniffing stuff is! LOVVVVVE JP!!!

    Best guitar player I've ever seen live...and probably ever honestly. Seen about 15 shows now and it is a spiritual experience. Just insane knowledge of the fretboard, a truly pleasing experience!

    • @rockinredneck57

      When he was starting out, his brother who plays gave him a chart with all the notes on the fretboard . Told him, Here, you need to learn this. I don't know it but you need to. So he took big brothers advise. It paid off.

    This guy can play anything..... he's one of a kind.... I saw him play with the Allman's....he swings just like Duane.... I'm old enough to have seen Duane play three times before he passed..... Jack is the closest to Duane as I have ever heard...... there's a UA-cam video of him playing acoustic with Tommy Emmanuel..... totally improv off the cuff on a jazz tune called Avalon .....they kill it.... check it out ....love your playing Jack

      That's why hes an Allman Brother. They're known as always having the greatest guitar players ever on stage any night of the week. Duane, Dickey, Dangerous Dan Toler, Jack Pearson, Mr DGT himself David Grissom, Zakk Wylde for 1 night lol, Warren Haynes, Derek Trucks, and whoever else I may be forgetting.
      No other band comes close to what the Allman Brothers put together. NO. ONE. Other bands might have a couple of great guitar players through the life of the band. Not 8 or more, like ABB did. 👍

    I was unavailable to attend the Jack Pearson event that was held earlier this month. I'm hoping you guys will have him back again very soon so I can come up and see him. I also have a recommendation for you if you can get him to come to Chattanooga. It's this guy Greg Koch that's all over UA-cam. He would be perfect for Songbirds.

    I don’t care how much you pay Tom Murphy at the custom shop It still won’t look like the real deal? I think it’s the way they used to carve the tops, it gives it a more deep dish look they just can’t seem to get right anymore today?

    Jack can make a Squire strat sound great , all those vintage guys scrambling to find old guitars and paying a kings ransom doesn't make much sense . It's is the hands , ears and years of practice ...and it doesn't hurt if you were born a guitar genius .
