Yes please! Do the "Real Blues" series! If this is any indication it will be fantastic. Some stunning playing there on a simple blues in E. I can't wait to hear more
Gonna have to check him out, I get so many great suggestions from obviously knowledgeable people in YT, even if they (knowledgeable comments) do occur at atrociously low rates, at least in most videos. Videos like this, not nearly so rare. I find that positive trend in serious videos on YT on a variety of subjects though, and a dearth of it on the sites like 'moon landing hoax' and 'aliens among us' I sometimes go troll for grins.
Justin is like a scarecrow. He's Outstanding in his field. That piece was amazing! It sounded simple, but was very complex. It only sounded simple because it was preformed so smoothly and with masterful precision.
Homebound, head bopping, stearing wheel slapping and feeling the groove. A slight smile on my face. Thanks for the great vibes Justin, just what I needed to finish the week. I can't wait to get home to my ladies and crack a cold one!!!! I'll be raising a shot to you Justin!!!! Thank you again for doing what you do!!!!! That down under tone wood is really something special!!!!!!
Nice to see someone besides Tommy Emmanuel playing a Maton! I have a 1977 CW80 that I bought new direct from the Maton factory back when I was living in Oz.
Always such a pleasure to listen to! At 75, I'm having left wrist carpal tunnel surgery soon. After that, back to better able to follow your lead - to a point! Thanks for the inspiration!
So far today, I’m four shots in. Just about to pick up the shovel guitar... got all those tendons lubed up and limber now!! This man just makes you want to try and play the blues!!!
As always, is a pleasure to watch and hear you play. You can even make a shovel sound good. LOL! However, that guitar has an OUTSTANDING tone; bright , crisp, and clear. Like it had something to say and you were what expressed it. Bravo, sir...well done.
Justin is keeping blues alive! He is so good and embodies the soul of music such that the sound takes on a presence and life of its own. BEYOND just playing the guitar!
Justin Johnson, you are hereby charged with false advertising for making this look FAR easier than it is! If only I could just LOOK this cool, let alone SOUND this cool!
I have two sons who are both very accomplished with their guitars , I used to love just sitting there listening to their practising and gigs when they were younger . Now that they`re grown up and married with their own children , I don`t get to see them as much now and miss that guitar playing , that`s why I subscribed to you El Maestro . My youngest son , Roy has been to Nashville with his band , looking for a recording company , to put together an E.P., that was just as Covid 19 was just kicking in , they managed to get the recordings down but had to get back home ( NZ ) via L.A. and do a few more takes with the lads in L.A. Roy has been in touch and they are slowly progressing with the E. P. but it has been frustratingly slow because of the virus and no travelling , still , here`s hoping .Cheers from NZ friend .
Totally dig the concept JJ...always shining bright big guy!!! Gotta hear a resignator of your choice with some down home slide my man....wouldn't have a full collection of "Real Blues" without one, as ya know !!! Something so pure,honest,clean, and SOULFUL when there's nothing but someone and their Ol flat-top, sittin around all quiet like surroundings, and just a pickin -N- grinnin their HEART OUT !!!! Love it, and it is EXACTLY why i ever even started watching your channel in the 1st place man. PLEASE don't let all the hub-bub,fame,fortune, and GLAM of it all take ya TOO awful far away from that my man...after-all...it's your ROOTS I would say...just you, a guitar, and some time to pass.Music is a wonderful thing...especially when it is played FROM THE HEART , and everyone,including yourself, FEELS IT too !!!! Stay Safe JJ.....and pour out those blues man...those..."REAL BLUES"...PEACE
Keep on doing what you do, we keep watching and listening. F*ck the pressure. we like listening to you play no matter what! 1 man 1 guitar is the best music ever!
The Maton Acoustic always sounds better than any Martin, Taylor or Guild. It has the warmth, loudness, punch and brightness combined. Oh yea, the playing was kick ass.
Beautiful sounding guitar and your comment about why you play acoustic blues is 100% on target. More of this needs to be heard by more people. Straight forward beautiful blues. Keep it coming Justin
I can sit and listen to someone play the blues on an acoustic for hours.... I'm working on learning some basics myself and gods your videos are such an inspiration.
I was gonna toss my guitar off of a bridge in despair after hearing this, but when I got to the bridge, there was a half mile long line of ex guitar players that kept saying "I thought I could play till I heard Justin"
My favourite guitar, that Bunya top just gives it a little more warmth, and the blackwood keeps it tight! My 2nd EA80C arrives tomorrow 🎉 the first one is a "Tobacco Sunburst" on the top, looks stunning... Keith Urban has one too!
Hey man, don't be a jerk. It's not Justin's job to teach you guitar. Maybe you should just enjoy his guitar ability and realize that if you practiced for a few hundred years or had Justin try to teach you 24/7, you still could not do what he does. Please continue to put out amazing videos Justin and, pay no attention to negative comments.
I dig it, dude! It really shows that you are playing for the joy of playing. I enjoy your pure sound in a similar (but different) way to Colin Hay's mature acoustic stuff when it is just his guitar and voice.
Your "Real blues" series is the right idea. You're a complete entertainer with your guitar.
Yes please! Do the "Real Blues" series! If this is any indication it will be fantastic. Some stunning playing there on a simple blues in E. I can't wait to hear more
Justin is just the man. Period. Love watching, listening, studying his fingers, and being inspired by him without fail every time.
Im a simple man. I see Justin Johnson, I click it. Life is good.
I can hear Lightning Hopkins singing in my head.
Always a pleasure to hear you playing.

Fantastic piece. You're so comfortable in your skin that the sole just pours out of you. 👍

Dziękujemy.
Thanks Krzysztof!

I have fingerpicked blues for 40 years. You're playing is outstandingly awesome. WOW. 🎉
Always such a pleasure to listen to! At 75, I'm having left wrist carpal tunnel surgery soon. After that, back to better able to follow your lead - to a point! Thanks for the inspiration!
Good luck!

Being an Australian i love seeing and hearing you play this on that guitar
Yes, please. More REAL BLUES!
I love the way this song finds its groove right away and keeps it going all the way to the end. Great job.
Жустин как великолепен твой блюз....❤
Complete mastery as always. Real blues is the real thing, true and honest down-to-earth blues. That guitar sounds awesone.
Justin is keeping blues alive! He is so good and embodies the soul of music such that the sound takes on a presence and life of its own.
BEYOND just playing the guitar!
Thanks!
Thanks for the support Linda!
This is what I've been needing to hear for a while now! Just one guy and his guitar. Thankyou Justin!
Incredible. Master level playing. Master level sound. Thank you.
Oh yeah. more of it.. and thank you!

Been listening to you for the past 3 years, and you've never missed a beat Justin! Sending love from VA!
Well thanks for making most of us feel like mere mortals ! :-). What a treat. Thanks for posting.
Ce gars a le blues partout dans le corps, les doigts et dans l'âme 😊!!
The Maton Acoustic always sounds better than any Martin, Taylor or Guild. It has the warmth, loudness, punch and brightness combined. Oh yea, the playing was kick ass.
Yep, that’s why Tommy Emmanuel uses them -that and the fact that they are Australian, but I’m sure he wouldn’t use them if they were rubbish
I always love hearing what yoy have to play for us!!! You are honestly a true inspection!!!
Another masterpiece, you're the best Justin
Isn't that what we have been enjoying all along 🔥🔥🎸😎🥃🥃
You rock 👊
Thank you for the video descriptions that educate the reader. Yes, please, more "Real Blues". Appreciate you :)
Beautiful sounding guitar and your comment about why you play acoustic blues is 100% on target. More of this needs to be heard by more people. Straight forward beautiful blues. Keep it coming Justin
yes! please give us much more of this. Thank you
With every video that I watch, Justin reveals a new wrinkle to his style! Excellent workout on the Maton!
Matons are one of the best and you well and truly do it justice my friend cheers great stuff as always PK
I can sit and listen to someone play the blues on an acoustic for hours.... I'm working on learning some basics myself and gods your videos are such an inspiration.
I could listen to this all day... and so true about wanting to play it just so I can hear it :D maybe in 3 years of hard work or something
wow.. amazing! great blues and great play!
I was gonna toss my guitar off of a bridge in despair after hearing this, but when I got to the bridge, there was a half mile long line of ex guitar players that kept saying "I thought I could play till I heard Justin"
So hard and soft at the same time. Remembering to Jerry Ricks' "Empty bottle blues" album.
Love the smoothness!!! Truly a master of your craft!!!
#DeltaBluesMan
Justin, BEE-U- TEE- FULL as only we can get from you !!!
So fluid, so heaven!!!
Thanks, Justin! Awesome tone from that guitar... love it!
I found my new morning song to get me up and going for the day !!!
You are the greatest in town my friend,and you make it look very easy,greetings from México
My favourite guitar, that Bunya top just gives it a little more warmth, and the blackwood keeps it tight! My 2nd EA80C arrives tomorrow 🎉 the first one is a "Tobacco Sunburst" on the top, looks stunning... Keith Urban has one too!
I want this, and this is the sole reason I play guitar. These kinds of moments.
So warm sounds guitar, make this blues so different ❤️
That was a nice laid back Blues tune JJ & that Maton guitar sounds great! 🎸🎸👍👍
You have to have blues ingrained in your soul to play blues like Justin.
Hallelujah Friday is here !!! Perfect toe tapping. Cheers 🥃🥃🎵🎶
That is what I'm talking about! Literally only coz I'm there yet.Luved Laluvit!🎙🎶♨️🎵
Great, looking forward another video with a few licks from this gig
Fantastic! Enjoyed very much, dear Justin!
Sounds awesome as always Justin, you playing solo is why I listen.
Brother, when I thought the tune could not get any better, it did!
I love it! When you get to a point where you have a few of these.... i wish i could get them on a CD..... I'm old school lol
Very well done had me checking my fingers and making up words love it,
I always get lost in the sauce when i hit play, such a great sound!
Real Blues - Awesome. I'm in!
I love Your music
That maton guitar sounds SO great

Always amazing Justin,Thanks...
I watch all of your videos. It always looks very easy and relaxed. But I always have knots in my fingers.
I really appeciate the idea of this new series! And I very much appreciate the "unplugged" take on this one!
What a great way to start the wknd!
Them blues,makes me feel good!!!
Man, love listening to you. You remind me of young Gary Rossington, look, style, technique, all around. Great stuff. Keep them coming.
Heck ya. Playlist started. Thank you kindly.
Asoooyyy gebooyyyyyy kang Justin good lah
Sold your soul at the Cross roads mate...... too good to be human.........
Assolutamente fantastico! Adoro questo tipo di blues...😮😮😮
Justin - stellar as always. Would love to see you do a jam with Tommy Emmanuel
Beautiful playing and beautiful guitar
I listen to Justin i am happy and inspired. I pick up my guitar, i am sad and weep.
It makes me take a glass of wine
Yea. Guitar at its purest.
The fingers of the Master damn great
1:58 awesome harmonic like so cool!
A lot of times I just sit in the back yard staring at my cannabis plants listening to your play list, it's like therapy for me.
It surely is.
I find it therapeutic watching cannabis plants grow
I bet the plants love it, too. The flowers will have some blues vibrations and energy in them. Enjoy and share!
The scrotch movement like waves its terapéutic too,try it.
But dont mix joint and J.J.too low,,,XXX low,,,low,,,low
💀🇪🇸💀
@@mikemoodie It's therapeutic smoking cannabis too lol
loving this justin i feel that in my soul :)
Once again he's just killing it.🎸
Спасибо!
You're the new SRV......AWESOME skills
Now, that’s what I’m talkin’ ‘bout! 😎👍
Fantastic!
I dig it, dude! It really shows that you are playing for the joy of playing.
I enjoy your pure sound in a similar (but different) way to Colin Hay's mature acoustic stuff when it is just his guitar and voice.
Colin plays this same guitar Maton
