Watching Bryan Sutton play... it brings a tear to one's eye, seeing the dexterity and hearing the clarity of the notes played, the result of the years of work developing artistry of that caliber. Simply amazing.
Aside from the ridiculous amount of talent, feel, and skill, I dug how Bryan got lost in the sound of the guitar... still seems like even at the highest level, there is still magic in there. That is helpful to me... my skills being limited, I need that part of music maybe a little more than some to keep trying. So thankful for these organic sweet conversations. Thanks Tom and guests.
Does anyone put more thought into his playing than Bryan? There is an intellectual and philosophical element to his approach, yet he has harnessed it to enhance the musicality where others sound and style becomes robotic. He’s cracked the code for sure.
The right hand of god, that’s for damn sure. Besides uncle Larry, Bryan’s been the biggest influence on my playing since the lockdown madness days. He’s so erudite, with his discussion on what he’s doing, and with those magical hands. A genius of a guitarist, no arguments. Cheers fellas!
Any video with Bryan Sutton in a studio with a guitar in his hands I am going to watch. Effortless picking all the time and has such great tone and touch. Talent helps obviously but to be that good you have to put in the time with practice. We get the benefit of just tuning in to listen, watch, and learn. Thanks for sharing Uncle Larry and keep these great videos coming! Bryan is my favorite acoustic picker for sure!
I absolutely love this video and the insight we get into what you guys do as session players do and how much sound affects you. Thank you thank you thank you!!!!
Wanna hear a joke? 50 other guys are on the 100 greatest guitarist of all time and both of these guys aren’t even thought of. These two are as good as there ever was. Truth.
Just saw that boy a couple weeks ago pickin with Bela on a platform perched on a hillside over a deep Green Mountain valley here in northern Vermont. What magic! Total inspiration.
Uncle Larry you are surrounded by people who are just as stellar as people as they are stellar as musicians. Mr Sutton is just jaw dropping good. One thing that is so evident in both his and your playing is the fluidity, how being so relaxed produces that fluidity and stellar tones. You have a real keeping in that new J-50, gorgeous sounds.
"What else do you need." well said. I love how you and Bryan and the pros play all the parts on solo guitar. I think many folks don't understand the years and hours of dedication, practice, and mastery to get to that point. I feel really lucky to turn this on and see what I can learn from it. Thanks
Spent the morning checking in with all the dudes from Gruhn's and now get Brian on the J-50. Thanks for giving us access to world I would have never been exposed to.
I know that I will never get anywhere near the word good in my guitar journey but I feel by watching you and your friends play that I at least learn something and enjoy walking over to pick up my guitar. Thank you again
You're a lucky man Tom, having such great friends around all the time. I'm from the " make your own luck" camp, so you obviously have a lot to do with it, but havings these folks available to you to be able to foster these friendships is so great. Good for you Unlce Larry.
Delightful! That’s the only word that came to mind. And the smile on my face is the best kind. The kind that comes from that instinctual joy there’s no way to avoid or fake or deny-not that anyone should ever want to. Tucked somewhere between awe & giddy, delight is as honest & sincere as the fellas in this video seem to be. And that’s sincerely delightful as well,…honestly! haha😉 Thanks to all 3 of you Session Men!
Love these field trips. The Tony Rice part is fascinating, all that cross picking is so hard! My J50 is my only acoustic and my favorite guitar to play, good score on that Tom.
@@DaveElke Glad you found so as well. There's a documentary type of video Troy Grady has on Carl Miner's cross picking technique and how it is quite unique. I have watched it quite a few times. I recommend it.
That Bryan Sutton is sooo smooth. His touch dynamics on the acoustic guitar are just masterful. Speaking of Robbie and Levon, I think I'll watch The Last Waltz this weekend in their honor. Haven't seen it in a few years. Levon is far and away my favorite singing drummer.
❤Sutton, Sutton who’s got the Sutton❤️Tom I so love your channel and your evergiving of these musical gifts you give us. the bluegrass circle video has been one of my favorites for a long time
God that’s some good stuff. The first videos I’m looking for when I wake in the morning or when I get off of work is uncle Larry. Brings me such joy. And I’m not blowin smoke Tom I really mean it. Thanks for everything
Just extraordinary. Loaded with great stuff. Ill stay away from that third in the cowboy G and play the open D fifth. Love it. Thanks so much. And super special ending. (My brother was Tony’s doctor in Reidsville. Funny story, Tony told him to come over to the house sometime and he’d let him hold his Martin guitar. Bill thought that was hilarious.)
It's so great to see what you can do just within the chord shapes. Such great music all under your fingers. Bryan came up with a great name for a new acoustic tune, 'Bottom Feedin'"
you know there is somethin to be said about the simplicity but very fulfilling content Tom. Keep it going please. Your interplay with others is something many will never know.
Wow, what a combination! Uncle Larry's J-50 in Brian's right AND left hands! Tom, all of your videos bring me joy and especially when they include Brian Sutton!
I jump in my truck in the morning before my drive to work and cross my fingers there's a new vid.... And damn was this one a great one! Thanks for the awesome time 🎸🎸...dang Brian good!
Hi Tom! Aspiring guitar player here from Newfoundland. I love vintage gear, love bluegrass and cross picking technique (its new to me in the 5 years or so). But I have watched this vid several times now and the content is great. That Gibson is really something! and Bryan is pulling amazing tone and clarity from it. The vibe is so relaxing and all around just a good group of guys talking notes and gear! Keep'em comin!
It’s not the first choice, but sometimes you find and old weird guitar that has a sound you can use. It’s also old so it probably has a pretty free and open tone. I’m sure I’d prefer his 36 D28 for me, but this guitar is different.
@@jordangunit3078 I guess it's better than the second thing they did when they put a tune omatic bridge on top of their beautiful guitars. I wonder who was in charge of the acoustic department at Gibson at the Time. Maybe the janitor got a promotion.
One of the top 5 Uncle Larry / Homeskoolin quotes…
“Cause when I play it, it sounds like a guy from Alice In Chains trying to play acoustic”
Damn - I could listen to Bryan play all day long! What a chill/cool guy!
It is INSANE how good Sutton is!
I can see why Bryan is the #1 guy to call for acoustic guitar work. Looks simple, but that's the magic.
Watching Bryan Sutton play... it brings a tear to one's eye, seeing the dexterity and hearing the clarity of the notes played, the result of the years of work developing artistry of that caliber. Simply amazing.
And his touch … man oh man
Aside from the ridiculous amount of talent, feel, and skill, I dug how Bryan got lost in the sound of the guitar... still seems like even at the highest level, there is still magic in there. That is helpful to me... my skills being limited, I need that part of music maybe a little more than some to keep trying. So thankful for these organic sweet conversations. Thanks Tom and guests.
Bryan's touch is unbelievable. Beauty in it's purest form. Thanks for having us once again Uncle Larry. You're the best!
Does anyone put more thought into his playing than Bryan? There is an intellectual and philosophical element to his approach, yet he has harnessed it to enhance the musicality where others sound and style becomes robotic. He’s cracked the code for sure.

Thanks, Mr Sutton, for the good chords, and Hey Tom for watching it live in person.
I wonder how many times I've watched this.
Any video with Bryan Sutton in a studio with a guitar in his hands I am going to watch. Effortless picking all the time and has such great tone and touch. Talent helps obviously but to be that good you have to put in the time with practice. We get the benefit of just tuning in to listen, watch, and learn.

I can't get enough of Bryan! What a master!!
Bryan Sutton makes me want to become a real guitarist one day when I grow up!
I absolutely love this video and the insight we get into what you guys do as session players do and how much sound affects you. Thank you thank you thank you!!!!
12:46 Tom's closeup of Byran's insane right hand work... Just unreal... Great video work there, Buk!
Wanna hear a joke?
50 other guys are on the 100 greatest guitarist of all time and both of these guys aren’t even thought of.
These two are as good as there ever was. Truth.
Man, Bryan Sutton is a national treasure. Thanks for introducing him to me here, Uncle Larry!
That Tony Rice section was priceless, especially at the beginning when detailing that unique rhythm style.
Just saw that boy a couple weeks ago pickin with Bela on a platform perched on a hillside over a deep Green Mountain valley here in northern Vermont. What magic! Total inspiration.
Two of the best players to ever pick up a guitar in any genre of music. I swear their hands know where to go before their brains are even engaged.
Love how Bryan kept playing that glorious guitar in the background! Thanks for the share, Unc!!

Love hearing Bryan, those bluegrass licks are killer! Brings such a smile to your face.
Thanks guys, nothing like a J 50 morning. My band mate has a 64 J 50 that is a Rolling Stone guitar for sure! Bryan and Buk thanks for sharing! Peace
Always love it when Bryan makes an appearance...
Sublime. Thank you both for sharing.
How amazing is Bryan Sutton...I could sit here all day and listen to this. Thanks for the tour time Tom.
"What else do you need." well said. I love how you and Bryan and the pros play all the parts on solo guitar. I think many folks don't understand the years and hours of dedication, practice, and mastery to get to that point. I feel really lucky to turn this on and see what I can learn from it. Thanks
It grooves incredible but the precision and the clarity of each note is out of this world !
Straight MAGIC! Man, what a gift that you let us in on this stuff. That Gibson is a monster.
What a master! Thanks for this, Buk!
Thanks Tom for everything especially the videos with Bryan. Y’all have such a good rapport
That guitar sound . Pure gold 🙏🎸🥰
Magical, soulful and beautiful playing!
Nasty crosspicking! Love the Sutton cameos on Homeskoolin 🤟🏻
Master class with the man! Gold mine…and the Gibby sounds sooooo good
So, so good. Mr. Sutton is such a monster player. Thanks for sharing.
That Bass chain was an awesome tip. Thanks. Love the Tony Rice licks like going home to paradise.
What a guitar player. Love having Bryan on.
This was a great little video Mr Bukovac. Thank you Sir.
Spent the morning checking in with all the dudes from Gruhn's and now get Brian on the J-50. Thanks for giving us access to world I would have never been exposed to.
I know that I will never get anywhere near the word good in my guitar journey but I feel by watching you and your friends play that I at least learn something and enjoy walking over to pick up my guitar. Thank you again
i have now watched this video 10 times. Beautiful playing. Thanks for the invaluable tips and insight. Incredible. Thanks, Tom, Bryan and Jimmie.👍
Bryan is just SO DAMN good. It's amazing.
You're a lucky man Tom, having such great friends around all the time. I'm from the " make your own luck" camp, so you obviously have a lot to do with it, but havings these folks available to you to be able to foster these friendships is so great. Good for you Unlce Larry.
so beautiful, thanks!
Love the Bryan vids, he's a wizard. Thanks UL
Amazing playing! Beautiful sound on that Gibson! Great video! Thanks Tom!

Thanks to all 3 of you Session Men!
What a sweet, soulful, man! What a beast of a guitar!! Sounds like the beautiful wood it’s built from!
Love these Bryan Sutton moments!
Absolute precision in that right hand. I could watch and listen to that all day. Thing of beauty
Love these field trips. The Tony Rice part is fascinating, all that cross picking is so hard! My J50 is my only acoustic and my favorite guitar to play, good score on that Tom.
Have you heard Carl Miner play?
@@bjornegan6421 just checked him out, great player.
@@DaveElke Glad you found so as well. There's a documentary type of video Troy Grady has on Carl Miner's cross picking technique and how it is quite unique. I have watched it quite a few times. I recommend it.
Love these behind the scenes segments you do with all the world class players you hang out with!
5:05 Casually turns into Leo Kottke while fielding a question
Thanks Tom! Thanks Bryan! Great post! Thanks for the share!

We love sweet Mr. Sutton
Oh yeah for sure dude. That's fantastic playing
Dang Uncle Larry, gold nuggets everywhere in this. Thank you!
Larry, the content has been so amazing. Don't stop
Beautiful
It's so great to see what you can do just within the chord shapes. Such great music all under your fingers. Bryan came up with a great name for a new acoustic tune, 'Bottom Feedin'"
Thanks Tom and Bryan!
Have to agree with you on Levon. Such a unique soulful voice.
Amazing, that is exactly how I sound when I play an acoustic...(..in my head that is..)...Thanks BUK!!! THANK YOU Mr. Sutton!!!
He's so freaking good.
you know there is somethin to be said about the simplicity but very fulfilling content Tom. Keep it going please. Your interplay with others is something many will never know.
Beautiful sounding acoustic
What a monster. Love hearing him play.
Wow, what a combination! Uncle Larry's J-50 in Brian's right AND left hands! Tom, all of your videos bring me joy and especially when they include Brian Sutton!
What a stud player and a hell of a nice guy. Great vid!
Bryan is such an incredible player.
Killing it Brian!

Wow! This dude! Thanks for sharing sir
Right hand. Left hand. Both hands and no hands. Brian Sutter is a beast and a blessing!
So I guess if mr. Sutton is ok with those adjustable Bridges then I don't have an argument anymore.
Some guitars are so badly out of intonation you have no choice but to install one 😅
@@Steve-si8hx let's not get crazy now
They only go up and down. You can’t adjust the intonation with em
It’s not the first choice, but sometimes you find and old weird guitar that has a sound you can use. It’s also old so it probably has a pretty free and open tone. I’m sure I’d prefer his 36 D28 for me, but this guitar is different.

Man, oh man, Bryan Sutton can lay it down! WOWSER!!!!!!
Man, what I'd give to be a fly on the wall in those rooms. Just to sit there and listen to such beautiful music being made would be amazing.
Fine video here & a rather fine player on that J-50…Brian’s got some amazing hands. Nice score on the guitar.
such a best. saw him last month in Brno with Bela Fleck. what a privilidge.
That right hand is so calm, it’s almost effortless, like a slow rollin’ train gliding on butter rails
That was so good it made me cry 😢
