He's really an "ace of spades"
think you're so smart cause you thought of the most perfect comment ever?
fuck you
I love you
So fucking funny.......WTG Ed.
Dig your comment.
real down to earth kinda guy :)
i sit corrected
The invention of this guitar was truly ground breaking
I came here for the music, I stayed for the puns. :D
I see what you did there 😏
Alright listen up you little shi-
@APOLLO I can really dig it.
@@Andy_Classic stevie wonder could have
This guy literally has talent in spades!
I'm really digging it.
Love the corny jokes. Keeps a person grounded. 😂
@@westerncanadiancommentary978 I came here for the music, I stayed for the puns. :D
Hugely talented!
@@westerncanadiancommentary978 Saw what you did there pal🤣
Are you Gaining?
Anyone who can make a shovel do that has my respect,hats off to you sir.
the fact he can play it like that shortly after making it is amazing. There is video of him making it also
I can imagine what he can do with a real guitar. Billy Strings look out.
Inspired by this so just dug a hole in my garden with my Les Paul.
LOL
I was going to post that I could dig potatoes with my shovel, but Les Paul is way funnier ........so I hate you ; /
LOL.
you, Sir, just made my day. LMAO.
brilliant
If I ever rob a train on horseback, I want this song playing in the background.
I hope to God im not driving that train
Ted Style this dude should do some songs on the new red dead redemption game
+meggawatt muffin great idea
meggawatt muffin would fit in a shootout during a horse wagon chase.
+Ted Style I don't think Justin can run that fast ! :-)
"Call a spade a spade", they say. Justin calls it a guitar. Absolutely fantastic talent.
This guitar is so down to earth!
😂👍 literally gold!!!
He's got talent in spades
Epic comment
😂bahahaha!!!
😂
He's playing one of those fretless shovels. So much more difficult than those fretted shovels. Awesome.
I’ve heard that.
Amazing. :D
🤣
Hilarious 😂
You think it's a straight DAD?
When Guitar Center is closed during the quarantine, but Home Depot still open
Lmssssao🤣😂😆😅🤣😆
HellKarnassus...😂😂
The basic shovel @ Lowes is $16.99. GF1, 👍👍👍👍👍😁😁😁😁😁😎
Hahahahahahaha...wooooh!
Yes, exactly
I'm Really DIGGING this new musical instrument.
He sure has a handle on playing
😃
Noice
Maybe his _head is sharper_ than the rest of us?
He's getting deep into the song with it.
You know Ed Sheeran and his fucking 4 chords songs have earned him a ridiculous amount of money but this guy shreds like he doesn't get whiskey hangovers and was born with a pick in his hand and a cigarette in his mouth. One of the greatest musicians I've ever had the pleasure of seeing. Keep rockin dude
Love your description of the guy.
god only knows why Ed is so popular ..... theres more talent in the clippings of one of Justin's pinky finger nails than Sheeran could ever even dream of mustering up.
Sheeran is a joke on a guitar. Dude can sing like a bird but his playing is second rate. Edit. And his goofy marvel arm tattoos look a technicolor disney virus is crawling up his arm. Real pickers stand strong the likes of Chet Atkins, Jerry Reed, Albert Collins Les Paul Jimi Hendrix George Lynch and the best and the rest are out there alive or dead.
What's Ed Sheeran got to do with this video? Yes, he earned it, he didn't take it at gunpoint.
@Waterboy899 ah another one of those what's that got to do with this video comment. It's called a comparison. Don't be a prick mate
This guy is changing the musical landscape and the actual landscape.
😆😆😆😂😂😂👍👍👍
Thats a good one, sir.
well, i laughed.
HHAHAHAHA!
You're an amazing show'vel man!
It's a little funny that this guy can play a shovel better than most can play a guitar.
Understatement.
this comment is golden
You meant to say he can play a shovel better than 99 percent of people that play guitar because that's more accurate.
Hard to play better than this guy to be fair. Hell, I bet he could play better with a cob of corn than I can play guitar.
Grandmaster do not complain own's tool..
This dude was born to play the blues.
Ho 64 anni e amo la musica, in particolare il blues. Sei semplicemente fantastico ragazzo mio! Un caro saluto e un abbraccio dall'Italia!!! 🥰😘👍🎶🎸
Well I never could play the guitar now can't play the shovel either😎
Floyd Mccombs Lmao🤣 Awesome comment!
🤣🤣🤣
WOW !
You might be able to dig it!! Come on give it try Please with a rake on top ❤❤❤🎵🎶🎸
If you rly wish you can play
Gene Simmons : I play a Bass that looks like an axe
Justin Johnson: thats cute
Both were equally bad ass
I have got to get me one of those
I play drums on buckets filed with TNT so that Bass axe is funny!
Truly this man is the Ace of Spades
I come back and listen to this regularly Almost nothing ever makes me wanna jump up and get down, but this is beyond groovy every time. I am imaging a whole band around this.
I always argue that it's not the gear you play with, but how you play it. Thanks for proving that point. Amazing.
602GRIND
That statement and point made could apply to soooo many things.
My pee pee is big.
@@rexbarr_5783 incredible
But these are super fancy gears.
Agreed x 💯. You can have all the top of the line gear in the world, but if your technique sucks? Most likely your playing is going to suck.
shovelry ain't dead
Corporal Killjoy 👍👍😂
Beautiful, my friend. Bee-u-ti-ful!
I "dig" your comment bro
Clever my friend, clever.
Tehehehehehehe!!! Bunch of clowns & music lovers here!! Cyndy in Alabama
Great talent this young guy... He is feeling blues with fingers and his soul.
I could never imagine to play music with a showel...
Amazing sound and rythm...
Heard this years ago and it still rocks 🤘
I wasted lots of money buying guitars obviously
Should'a taken up gardenin' instead, rjh =)
@ costs less than a hundred and is being sold for 450 :D that's ridiculous..
😂
Dig that...😳
This guy is damn good. Thought I will watch a silly video from recommendation list, but this is one of the hidden gems of UA-cam.
Mc Nizzle same.
This is Talent. Justin Johnson is a musical genius & god. Cyndy in Alabama
same way i found, total hidden gem
This dude is a diamond mine!
Honestly, he came up on my facebook feed for some reason. About 3 years later I finally look him up on UA-cam...
He is amazing with all his instruments. 😊
The King of Spades.
This just blows my mind ive been playing drums for 30 years and I've been around thousands of guitar players that dont sound this good
Thousands? Really?
So 2000 + guitarist...🤔
davedalessandro8189 Dalessandro
Guess I’ll go die ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@davedalessandro8189
Wouldn't it be some shit if you are actually Niel Perch from rush and no one has ever figure out your real youtube name
Just wouldn't that be some shit
@@Norman-Bates
Psh, he would only have to meet a little over 5 guitarists every day.
Nick L probably just works at Guitar Center.
I’m 55 and have been playing guitar for over 40 years and watching Justin play his shovel brings me joy every time.
I'm in my 60's , I've seen alot of things. I watched men sit on top of rockets and shoot themselves to the moon. I watched a man jump 20 cars with a Harley. I currently watch men go from 0 to 330 m.p.h. in only 1000 feet , yet I have never seen anything as incredible as this !
Fuckin' A, dude! Amazing what the human spirit can do with a little ingenuity.
Sending people to the moon is a little bit more impressive
@@BAH2710 Not to me...
@@da324 congrats
Good LORD!!!
Music 🎼 and Tools 🛠️ all wrapped up in one ☝️- can’t get better than that !!!
You just made better music with a shovel, 3 strings and 3 and a half minutes than I have in 16 years of playing guitar. My hat is off to you sir, that was awesome!
I've only been playing for 6 years or so, but I feel the same way... and on a goddamn shovel.
i can hear an overdubing that maybe will
l makes yu feel better
beatsByZlaya just facts! electrical suplies , octaver ,looper ect made a single guitarist more powerfull but it s a trick,no offense just facts,now if you want to call Tahiti a hole it is up to yu no answer required thanks
mateo lopez I think you did not understand. this guys is acting as if being better then him is some sort of an achievement.
My point was that I'm much worse than him.
Jack White: who says you need to buy a guitar?
Justin Johnson: hold my shovel
Well, actually, give it back.
Jack Black and his sax-a-boom joins in
Guitar in the shape of a shovel 🗡
He's got more talent in that slide than I have in my entire body! Fantastic playing on a tool!👍
I swear your hands create southern hospitality in musical form
What kind of music do you like?
It's complicated.
I like shovel music
Drewsky88 ya fuck off mate, let the joke be.
Henk de Tank 9gag. What a pleb.
cabin ceiler Touché
He doesn't like the music, he digs it.
My geography teacher showed us this when it was free time, and my class and I were all stunned in amazement
😂😄👍
Few things better than when teachers go off script.
Amity that is awesome
I had a teacher that put on "Child in time" - Deep Purple because it was a 10 minute break :)
Git it son!! BADASS 🎸👍💯
WOW. How does something like this not become front line stardom. Amazing. Keep jamming👍
This is one of the most bad ass things I’ve ever seen
Watch. "Cam cole ..."
On UA-cam
"You know me," my dad used to say, "I always call a spade a shovel."
And now it's an 'axe'!
Yeah, but who "axed" you about it? ;-)
Lmao
He can make anything sound good. Always a joy to listen.
Now I have seen everything! Justin Johnson turned his shovel into a three-string guitar and played some blues licks with finesse and grace. Wow!
My comment will end up buried but I still got to say I’m diggin’ this.
Like him to play at my funeral
Are you saying there's an idiot in a box, you're an idiot in a box, you're the box containing said idiot, or the guy who owns a box full of idiots?
@@peytonburnsed2196 ur comment is cornfusing.
@@olderetiredtreemahn3234
Confused me too lol think hes box troll.
@@whiterabbit594 maybe he's confused too. Peace
When you’re too good for normal guitar so you play the shovel
It's a spade not a shovel.
Psssst, he does not know yet.
A spade banjo
@@od11bj --- Some people call a spade a spade and some people call it a fucking shovel.
@@BoopShooBee those people have never had to use one.
Flat puts a smile on my face everytime.
Anyone that can do this with 3 strings and No frets on a shovel is incredibly talented
Pure talent! When you can make a shovel sound like a an expensive guitar, man you have something! Every once in a while I see something on here that just plain fascinates me and this is definitely fascinating!
This here is the real reason for UA-cam eh. Seeing what some very talented people are doing in this world. Have you or anyone else here seen the little Japanese girl playing the drums? She's around 9 now, her folks have been posting up vids of her nailing rock tracks from the age of 7!!!!
This has got to be the coolest, most edgy, most hardcore thing I have ever seen. Rock on.
Have you seen the washing machine that plays the sickest metal beat? Go look it up:)
This is ofcause also really good :)
@@GlossRabban Just found it. Thank you! Ha!
This man is my spirit animal
Been coming here for 5 years to listen to this. Incredible.
Now THAT'S what a shovel is supposed to sound like!
Looks like someone went down to the crossroads.
Im glad im not alone
Jaja jajaja🤟
😂😂😂😂😂
No kidding!
Came here for the novelty of a shovel guitar, left speechless from the talent, you might be right!! Should check out Arroyo, I live in the desert and all I can say is thank you Justin ,you really captured it.
Best use of a shovel short of killing a snake I’ve seen!!
I'm diggin' the sound. It's ground penetrating. truely an excavating, trench-cutting experience!
This is absolutely the best thing I've seen on UA-cam in a long time!
Dude. This totally should have been in Mad Max. Very cool.
😂 i could see that guy up on the rig playing swinging around
And waste a good shovel? Ha ha jk
mrhomebrew whoa you’re just gonna dis the doof warrior like that? Mad max was totally a metal movie
That's a record playing fool
Or fallout
Justin Johnson..... Master of string picking!
This man is 1 hell of a ROCKSTAR
He gives meaning to the phrase, "he can play anything."
He'd master it within a week.
He's like the John Wick of stringed instruments
“After burying good ol’ Nat in the woods, we played him his favorite jam - using the same piece of equipment.”
This guy is a genius. And he makes damn good MUSIC.
Good ol....boys got TALENT. IN THEIR. GENETIC HISTORY
some lame guy:
i bet you can’t play that shovel over there!!
justin:
hold my rake...
Yes!!😂😂😂
Lol 🤣
Almost as good as a fortnite reference
i nearly died laughing 😅😅😂
Wahahaha . Pissing my pants....
There's two kinds of people: Those with loaded guns and those who play the shovel. You rock
Down south and in Alaska yeah.
3 kind's! loaded and shovel lol peace brother
@@jeffsilvis6573 yes.
Then what am i? Lol
Most people that play a shovel carry a loaded gun. ;
The sound of nature. It gets better. Don't give up. Don't be ashamed to ask for help. You are capable of doing better things with your life than you might think.
The tonewood in that shovel handle is what really gives it the majestic sound.
Me : watching some Linux videos
UA-cam : wait I got something for you
Me : *impressed*
Yes!!!
GNU/Shovel Guitar
It is probably due to the long hairs of the guy UA-cam confused him for Linux admin.
So true! I got here by some computer related clip!
Diversity is a code word for white genocide.
Tuning? E/A/E? I am an old 64 year old geetar man, not easy to impress any more.That is just so cool. There is hope for real music.
Thanks El, It's in Open G tuning (G D G)
El KennedyStart- Move over kid, Let a 65 year old show ya how's done :) What a kick in the ass :)
Best gitar
His playing goes right down to the roots.
This man should have his own Blues music
He killed the Devil with that shovel guitar after he sold his soul.......
messymason1984 at them thier crossroads!!
Can't wait to see what he makes out of a tractor.
😂
Maybe a mobile moonshine still? lolz
He could team up with Author and Punisher for that ha
Tank, just like Third Reich did century ago.
A church organ
How is that even possible!!! What a sound dude, amazing ❤
Fretless freestyle on a shovel. Crazy talent 😳😱🤯
Dude, i need to hear you play 'Black Betty' on that thing!
Check out his ace of spades
Black Betty?! Dude does something cool and plays his own music and you ask for Black Fuckin Betty?! Is this what triggered is?
@@spacejamgoliath Way to attack R.L. Burnside, shithead.
@@jamesanthony8438 lol wtf Burnside got to do with black betty
@@spacejamgoliath What's wrong with the request? I don't get it.
I was just watching the tubes when i wanted to search "shovel knight game grumps" i typed in shovel and it came up. As i clicked it for a split second i saw "shovel guitar" got me curious so i went back and searched it. Best decision i made today...
Shovel Knight is the best game: fact
@@cjs4247 it's FUCKİN' BEST
Did you get a shovel guitar?
Man I remember watching this in my 7th grade guitar class still one hell of a video
What in the world? A shovel guitar? That's both hilarious and awe-inspiring!
Incredible stuff.
A new meaning to pick and shovel
Brilliant
👏👏👏
I thought I'd seen it all at 64 yo! This dude is serious about playing guitar. I'm also putting this one on my 2020 playlist. EDIT: You reckon the garden rakes are getting nervous?
Might be able to do something with an ol fasioned one one bycutting the tines to particular lengths and plucking / stiking them ;-)
@@Ruthavecflute Lol! Wait, are you serious?
I’ll bet I could play a mean rake -like I do spoons (and other household items )
The garden rakes just play tambourine
@@davidaloca9594 Killer reply, LOL!
This guy just makes you feel like everything in life is good right now
You can make great music from anything if you have the love of music.Bravo. This is a real musician.
Listening to this fella playing makes me beer thirsty
Christian Windum right on🍺!!!
Yeah lets dug on beers man!
@Tha ch0s3n fuck men alchohol is my nature help me
Beer, whiskey and cigarettes

I am now so tempted to turn my 5 foot crowbar into an upright bass.
Do it
Well they have washtub upright basses, go for that.
Crowbar already makes heavy music
😂 😂 😂 😂
Hehe...make a vid soon as you'e done.
Groundbreaking
I see what you did there.

He's not your guy, pal 😉
Robert McAnany he's not your pal, friend
This - this is the America I love!
This gets all mpre impressive once you see him talk about this guitar and how its all played by ear.....
This is just awesome. I have watched it 20 times now.
Watch the rest of his videos. As the guy in Australia says on one of them, if you can put a string on it Justin can make it sing.
AMEN.
That’s a crazy variety of sounds for just being 3 strings, that’s crazy
Scottius Nevious not really called notes and playing style....u don't need multiple strings if one knows how to play...i prefer a guitar trimmed down to 4 strings and I play metal shit...
dark angel I bet you’re fun at parties
Monity parties? I can't stand parties..bunch of stupid people thinking their cool...either u can play..or u can't...end of story
dark angel LMFAOOOOOOOO you live underground I’m convinced
yeah...cuz it's such a shocker that somebody doesnt like parties..or people...oh the horror of the thing...🙈😂😂
The way you played the piano tonight was nothing short of masterful. Thank you for sharing your incredible talent with us.
What a player. What a sound!
After seeing this, I went out and bought a shovel....then promptly buried my guitar with it.
Hahahahaha, this should be the top comment!!
Agreed
Yep gotta make one now.
LoL
😅😅😅😅😅😅
Badass. I didn’t even know I like shovel music but yes, yes I do
I'm fall in Love with yours music... amazing
