As a subpar guitar player I know enough now from my own little riffs and things that I do that that's what eventually becomes songs for all guitar players. If you listen to them play lover leaver from about 4 years ago a big part of the freeform jam was built by Nations. Before it was built by Nations. Kind of cool that you noticed that though.
Man he is the worst guitarist in the band, the drummer and keyboard player play guitar and are cleaner, more technical, and solo better than him.....he is still struggling with the basic pentatonic rock riffs everyone learns and grows out of after the first few years.
Went to see Metallica in Atlanta this past year. Greta Van Fleet opened (along with Cage the Elephant). Aside from being impressed with Greta Van Fleet’s live show, I was amazed at how many young girls where there specifically to see GVF (they were noticeably more subdued during Metallica) and they knew all the words to all their songs. Hopefully that translates to keeping rock music alive for another generation.
I'm in my 60's and appreciate this guitar player 100%. This band is one of my favorites. I saw them at MSG and can't wait for them to return. They are my new favorite band. Just beyond the realm of a superstar band.
As an older guitarist, I'm glad to see some of the younger generation pay homage to bands of the past and it lives on in "their" music. We are all an influence of something and I like that the younger generation that loves GVF will possibly look back and discover bands of the past! Good job Gibson and support this young man on his incredible journey keeping rock-n-roll alive!!!
He is a good player but nothing he said in this interview shows a deep level of knowledge. All he said was a 61 sg is great and and its Paf pickups are spot on anyone even vaguely familiar with the 61 Sgs would not have heard anything in this video they have not already heard before. The knowledge he displayed about the Sg was bare minimum basic stuff. Sgs are cool and pafs are spot on . There are loads of armature players on the everything SG forum that could put Jake to shame on Sg knowledge why do so many people treat every word that comes out of a famous guitars players mouth like some profound revelation. He is a good player with good tone who writes good music but his statement about the SG are simple and basic.. it' plays good it sounds good . Pafs are nice. That's it .
These comments are so disappointing. I’m not even that much of a gvf fan but you can’t deny that these guys are ridiculously talented. So what that have a similar sound the the classics? thats kind of hard to escape. If any of you have listened to their newest album you’d find they’re finding their own sound and it’s fucking awesome. you don’t have to like them, but you have no valid reason to bully and put down people who are just having fun and doing what they love. have an ounce of respect for them, they’re people too
So glad he got chosen for this. He loves that guitar so much. Such an innovative dude, he’s gonna go down as one of the best of our time, I’m just glad I get to watch it happen.
Innovative?!?! 😂😆😂😆 Please don't get me wrong, I'm not a hater, I love GVF, they're an insanely talented bunch... But to say there's something innovative about their music is plain ignorant. They sound exactly like pretty much every great rock band in the 60's/70's. Which defintely isn't a bad thing per se, and I'm really curious as to where their talent will take them, but they're no superheroes xd
@@psychicspyfromchina9834 They are derivative in the extreme and that's really all I can say about them. To deny that is just to flat out be intellectually dishonest. I'm not even saying they "suck" but just that they're not anything that hasn't been heard before. I mean I don't find even a hint of originality in anything they do but there are tons of people like that who still make a living playing music. Just look at pretty much every glam band of the 80's as exhibit A to this.
I was so late to the party on Greta Van Fleet. I love the fact these guys brought some classic rock back to the forefront. Jake's live performances are insane..... dude can play. I was in Frankenmuth MI this past weekend with my kids who are 3, and 6 and playing them GVF music and telling them this is where they grew up. My kid was so inspired by that. We got home and I started teaching him the open strings ......on my 61 Standard SG.... he wants to be the next Rockstar.
He speaks words far above and with great vocabulary that embrace his passion. Jake is incredibly talented and masterful at his craft. Greta Van Fleet is going to create music that is coming for decades. I can only imagine the creativity of this band will expand that so many people will wait for like me. Anticipation is a beautiful thing when it comes down to this caliber of musicians. Jake jams and not a soul on earth can deny it.

Sir Jacob Thomas your passion for music is beyond inspiring. I, too, believe that everyone should have a connection with an instrument. Thank you for your music and your message!!
Well-deserved acknowledgement. Fusing this iconic guitar to such a masterfully skilled musician, is truly trailblazing the future sound of rock music. 🖤💫
Dude is insanely talented watching him play live was INSANE! It made me want to rush home and play guitar, If you ever have a chance to see Greta Van live I HIGHLY recommend it.
This young man is so damn good. He pours his soul in to his music and plays his heart out. When he leaves the stage, he is drenched in sweat and has gave the audience all he has. Love GVF!
For years people complained that there were no more “classic” sounding rock bands like yesteryear. Now they got one, and they still complain. As far as being derivative, there is going to be some of that, or else they wouldn’t sound classic. Lol Actually, I think GVF has their own thing going. Good for us and them 👍
I get the Led Zep criticism but these guys are also seriously talented musicians. They're making classic rock in the modern day and they're making it really well. Remember also that Aerosmith used to be criticized for being too much like The Rolling Stones.
@@MisterSwagify Right. Rush also took a lot of crap for a long time from columnists and critics because of Geddy Lee's voice. If it were up to them, they'd have never made it as a band.
@@festushaggen2563 Agreed. Critics ain't worth shit; AC/DC still got blasted by The Rolling Stone all through the remainder of the 20th century and now suddenly, in more of a recent turn of events they now love and idolize those same albums they trashed back in the day.
I completely agree. I think k the fact that they can even be compared to led zeppelin shows that they have some serious talent and chemistry going on. How people fail to realize that is beyond me
Nothing unique about it. It's classic Jimmy Page 101. Study Led Zeppelin's career and watch and listen to live stuff and you'll hear exactly where Jake gets his style and sound from.
When I heard “The Archer” from their new album I recognized that riff but I couldn’t put my finger on it until I saw this video again a couple weeks later 😝
I just went to see Greta Van Fleet in Salt Lake City and before the show, I was thinking for my next guitar, I either wanted an Ibanez or a modern Gibson SG standard. Not only did that show turn me over to the SG, but a different model of SG, this one. The 61 Gibson SG sideways vibrola, and I’m not turning back, I love this guitar!
Just stumbled upon The Band this morning...sent OnMyWay to my babes as hes about to fly to me... It rocks! Wow, so am here to get to know the band members as he went straight and booked tickets for Brisbane in August! OM❤GVF! Hes gone and
So many pretentious "enthusiasts" in the comments. Can't deny their talent and evolving sound. They're the ones that have me bouncing back in time discovering music I never appreciated. In today's music of 1 3 5 type playing/computer generating, they are a breath of fresh air, creating songs that you can sit and listen to without getting bored. The opposite actually! im so grateful for them!
Such a committed musician. He is talented but in love with his craft. Such a joy to watch him play or talk about playing. I wish critics would stop comparing them to others. They are Greta Van Fleet. Period!
This is a great collab between Gibson and Greta Van Fleet! Jake is such an amazing and talented guitarist! I saw Greta in concert last October and he stole the show!
@@guitargeek2891 I understand your point...obviously giving him a signature model would have been amazing...but I think when I said collaboration, I meant it was more like a good move/step. Jake is definitely deserving to represent a signature model for sure and I hope it happens one day but he’s talking about a guitar that he absolutely loves because of his long experience with it which gives good exposure to both Gibson and the band so I still see this as a win.
Brilliant Jake, just brilliant! Your connection to your instrument, your sound, your craft is absolutely magnificent. I wish happiness and success in all your aspirations.
To everyone saying they're ripping off Zep, if you think their new album sounds anything like Led Zeppelin then I'm honestly speechless. Their early stuff, yeah it did sound like Zep but they've definitely came into their own, if you don't like it then move on instead of taking the time out of your day to talk rubbish over the internet about a talented musician.
People have the audacity to claim that new gvf sounds like zep. It ridiculous. Even if they do share similarities, Led Zeppelin stole so many songs for other artists. It's almost impossible to make music that is original from the ground up and listenable. Sure you can use synths to create harsh abrasive sounds that no ones heard, but to do so in a way that hasn't been done and is enjoyable seems impossible these days. The point isn't the starting point, it's how these young men are taking something like classic rock and making it their own, making it fresh again, making it accessible to the younger generation. I have no complaints
You’re right, they don’t sound lime zeppelin, they sound worse, less original and more pretentious, at least zeppelin hid their influences well, GVF is extremely talented but they’re industry manufactured boy band equivalents nostalgia baiting wide waisted boomers and young kids who want to buy into the 70s cosplay
@@veyom5959 zeppelin hid their influences? So ripping off African American musicians and not giving credit is something ur cool with? What a joke you are lol

It's not about the brand it's about the music. The Beatles chose Epiphones over Gibson equivalents back in the day. They used to be made in the same factory.
@@photopicker Well to a certain extent it is about the instrument as well as the player because different instruments may inspire you in different ways. I sound different on a strat vs. an SG not just tone-wise, but because I play different on those two instruments as well. So in picking your go-to, it's about finding what inspires you the most. In my case, it's the sound and feel of an SG with T-Tops.
I’ve been looking at this guitar for a while, hesitant on whether or not I should pull the trigger on it. Then outta nowhere, my favorite (current) guitarist is endorsing it?? Hell yeah. It’s gonna happen

The fact that he play the riff to the archer so much earlier than the song came out is crazy
I literally called that it would be a song when this came out lol. He did the same thing with curtain falls
Is it though?
thats how writing songs in most cases works.

"way of playing" does not equal "sound"
To all of you guys, while I agree Jake does sound very much like page, he is slowly developing his own sound
