Completely underrated and rarely referenced by all the UA-cam guitarists . I actually prefer Gillan to Deep Purple because of Bernie .All those dive bombs with a standard term and no locking nut . Bloody nice bloke by the looks of things too. RIP Bernie.
Absolute legend,very underrated and up there with the greats,in my opinion with technique and sound nobody better,was lucky to meet him with gmt in a small pub in Bolton along with John and Robin,what a night every single one of them was the total gent with time for everyone
Love this guy - all the skills. All the rocknroll legacy but still NICE. Must try and find footage of him giving Richie a (thrashi..) er.. a 'run for his money' lol

Love his playing with Gillan!
I prefer Gillan too Tbh
dive bombs is how he puts it back in tune. He does it at the end of this video
One of my favorite guitarists to bad I discovered him late in life. RIP Bernie.
5 years ago yesterday this man died. His 72nd birthday would be today Rest in peace Bernie.
What a lovely man, sorely missed. met him a few times and he was as nice of a man as he was a guitar player.... RIP Bernie
Great wild player and a nice bloke. We miss him. (Paul)
Bernie and Marcus Deml are the only two guitarist I know of that play a single coil Strat like a humbucker equipped Floyd Rose guitar.
Indeed, made to be played, as they should be!
Never got to see Bernie live sorry to say
God bless Bernie Torme

If only that guitar could talk, it would have a million stories to tell. It should be in the rock hall. 🎸
Godspeed Bernie , you were up there with the greats whatever the journos say or don't say
"I bend" ..Bernie Torme
Legend
I wonder about his bluish green strat.
Nice geetar, but would have been nicer to see the guy's face as he was talking.
Unless the narration was all added later.
