In many ways the perfect guitarist. One of the few who can really blend blues with rock and shred and he always has a breathtaking tone. The variety in his playing and his choice of notes are always fresh and tasty. What a discovery.
the stuff he does isn't that hard its how he plays it that's wholly unique. his amp helps. the picking attack and sustain are what a real guitar player needs and it helps tremendously. ive been playing the same vintage marshall for 27 years never thought id find another amp that satisfied the tone itch but the be100 definitely delivered. tone is in your head you have to find the gear that lets your fingers make it happen.
That was just mastery of the instrument, at it's finest!!!!!! Dave is one of my Hot Sauce customers and I will be getting a BE100, but I'm sure gonna have to practice night and day to get it to sound anything like this video, Doug. Your phrasing, varying step bends, cliché choices, sweeps, etc.....are just brilliant! You marry tasty technique and soulful choices.
This is probly top 5 videos I've watched on you tube and have watched a grip of guitar vids! Just amazing!! 1:11 - 2:00 just UNREAL. Wow. Loads of fun to jam with too!
I love to watch you jam. Just picked up a Knaggs Kenai because of you. Goes great with my BE100. Shit rocks! Thanks for playing. Very inspirational. Keep it coming.
You know there is something wrong in this world,When pop stars get all the credit and there is someone like Doug with all his talent,gets very little credit for being an absolute genius on guitar.
OMG! This is one of the best performances I've ever seen on youtube. So much feel. That sound. I wish Joe Bonamassa would watch this and learn a thing or two :) That AMP is a killer. Wish I had the dollars for It. But wish even more i had the skills of your fingers. Hats off!
Doug... you're honestly one of my new favs to watch. So tasty and your note selections are so great. Fluid as all get out and tone from hell. Thanks for sharing! POST MORE BRO!
I just threw all of my shit on the driveway and lit it on fire !!!!!!!! Why bother !!! .....lol Just Killer tone and incredible playing Doug !!!!! I look forward to the next !
I've seen them all Doug, Eddie, Vai, Satch ,Petrucci, Bett's, Bonamassa, and all the big rock band guitar players. Then I saw you in Shirley, MA. in 2015 and when you took your solo (Edgar Winter Group), I had f***** tears. I know what I saw, I know what I heard. You are 100% World class player. I hope to find you out there again.
Doug.. This is still and for ever will be my favorite video to watch on youtube!!! Seriously you are god at guitar! I bet you could make a 10$ practice amp with a torn speaker sound AMAZING! Im devoting a huge part of my life to learning to play close to this.. I said close.. Meaning not even in the same continent as your playing.. Do you have any albums?! I would love to listen to you play on the road.. Seriously you are a massive inspiration to me!!!
And unlike Joe Bonamassa, Doug would actually play with a voice and personality of his own and not sound like an Artificial Intelligence Robot playing cliche and tired Blues quotes with ZERO personality.
Great sounding amps Doug and the player isn't to bad either! We met at a Edgar show a few years back. We talked backstage and we got some pics taken. Edgar signed my Tele back stage that night. Rock n Roll bro.
Right on man! Amazing chops and tone! Been trying to learn the EJ lick from your vid for some time now. Almost have it up to speed.... But not quite yet. Now trying to incorporate it in my playing and making it sound legit is a different story lol! Keep the vids coming! Friedman amps are beast!

I've been trying to be like Doug for a last 30 years. So far I have the hat and the shirt.
I would love to get some of those leads transcribed and practice that till i got that smooth!
😂🤣😂😁

Half a decade in the Friedman BE-100 is still king and the best tone Doug has ever been heard through
Dude you are with out a doubt one of the most complete guitar players on the planet !!!

Great Video and playing! Does the BE-50 have this much gain?
Chasingtone yes

Rock, blues and shred all tastefully done. Nice!
Doug is a guitar players, guitar player. I don’t think he realizes how much we love his playing.
Doug you make the best videos. On the road and needed a guitar fix so I came here.
That was just mastery of the instrument, at it's finest!!!!!!
Dave is one of my Hot Sauce customers and I will be getting a BE100, but I'm sure gonna have to practice night and day to get it to sound anything like this video, Doug.

Great playing and tone! I´d love to see more clips of you playing a Friedman Smallbox.
Holy shit. Thats some skills and amp tone is just on fucking spot.
Doug.. This is still and for ever will be my favorite video to watch on youtube!!! Seriously you are god at guitar! I bet you could make a 10$ practice amp with a torn speaker sound AMAZING! Im devoting a huge part of my life to learning to play close to this.. I said close.. Meaning not even in the same continent as your playing.. Do you have any albums?! I would love to listen to you play on the road.. Seriously you are a massive inspiration to me!!!
Wow!!! Nice video! Nice tone! Nice playing! Friedman must be a really great sound!!
Nice strap... My initials too, \o/.
This one still blows me away! You are gifted, Doug. Would be very cool if you could do a Bogner Helios demo in this format with the backing tracks:)
Great improvisations buddy wow

What a sound!
Hey Doug, whoa, that's a serious tone and killer playing, can't wait to hear some SmallBox clips!!
Greetings from Italy,
Alessandro
Great playing!
Awesome playing, man!
fantastic style man!like bonamassa
if I could play like Doug I would sit at home all day and just rip...wait - nah I'd then go tour around the world like a boss
And unlike Joe Bonamassa, Doug would actually play with a voice and personality of his own and not sound like an Artificial Intelligence Robot playing cliche and tired Blues quotes with ZERO personality.
Great playing killer tone
Great sounding amps Doug and the player isn't to bad either! We met at a Edgar show a few years back. We talked backstage and we got some pics taken. Edgar signed my Tele back stage that night. Rock n Roll bro.
