    As I watched this I realized Billy has embodied those old blues men he saw growing up ...right down to the way he drinks and talks like ...a coooooool cat ....who isn't prepared for class and doen't care but wants to just feel goooooood daddio. haha its like he even putting on a show in the why he speaks. giving us the experience he had as a kid talking to these other worldly bluesmen... who were also drunk too id bet hahaha

      Embodied them so much, They copped John Lee Hookers riffs in La Grange and ZZ Top got sued by Hookers song writing partner and copyright holder for it.
      John Lee wasn’t personally involved in the law suit.

    I just got me one of them yellow telecaster but the Squier brand . I bet one day hangin out with you old boys I could learn so much . I started 2 months ago at the age of 63 because my back is messed up and I figured if I’m sitting on the couch I’m going to learn something. Thanks for the little bit I picked up on !

      This is so inspirational I had to find out how's it going now that you've hopefully been playing for 9 months now! I'm 59 and I've been playing for 47 years but I've learned from someone who's been playing only 6 months before, and that's the lovely thing about playing the guitar!

    I can't remember a time that I wasn't enamoured with the guitar...even at the age of five years old I would stand on a foot stool and sing along with Roger Miller's King of the Road and strum on a broom..and then at 11 my grandfather bought me a little acoustic guitar from Sears...one of the sunburst one's..and then learned the chords to King of the Road by listening to the record and then I would get up on the foot stool and sing and play....and now at the age of 63 im just as enamored with this wonderful instrument called the guitar....🎸🎸🎸

    What I took away from this episode was something Marty Friedman talks a lot about in his interviews where he talks about playing, I know Marty Friedman and Billy Gibbons are miles apart but stay with me
    Its about how you play the notes, how far you bend, how fast do you bend? Do you slide into a note or do you hammer it on really quick? Theres tons of choices when it comes to how you play something and those decisions are what makes your voice on the guitar uniquely yours, Billy Gibbons plays the same way he talks, nice and smooth with a little bit of swaager to it Imo :)
    cool episode, this is my favorite series on UA-cam at the moment and look forward to every episode
    If you could get like Yvette Young, Mark Arm and Steve Turner, King Buzzo...man I have a whole list of who I'd like to see!!!

      @sSkullCollector 9 місяців тому +2

      Others correct me if I'm wrong, but Looks like a Fender Princeton silverface combo. The amp is cranked up but the mushy tone comes from the Esquire in the neck position. The guitar doesnt have a neck pickup but the neck position routes the signal through some caps which give it the jazz thing with gain.
