  • Full episode now available on AXS TV's app! In the meantime Charlie shows me the guitars Zac Brown, Billy Gibsons and Leslie West gave him plus more. I travel to Atlanta to catch up with Charlie from Blackberry Smoke where we talk about his influences and how some of his heroes gave him their guitars!

Thanks for getting me excited about playing guitar, Charlie! It has enriched my life and is so much fun I could just play the guitar all day long... I'm looking forward to the concert in Munich this year. Kind regards, Chris

    Love Charlie's guitar style, no over distorted shredding, just great tone and feel. Hits the sweet spot, just as his vocals have the perfect mix of country, blues and rock. He loves all the rock bands i like , who mentions the Georgia Satellites these days, i still have their first three albums. I discovered Blackberry Smoke in 2015 when my mate, who had CZcams on his TV, rang me up and said get round here, there's a documentary about a band i know you will love. He was right, love this band.

    I have a clear body Les Paul style guitar. The reason i fell in love with clear body guitars was from Joe Perry playing one. My cousin's uncle from her stepdad was ronnie Stewart, he was the original drummer for the Joe Perry project. It was my first cooncert. When i was 9 year's old, got to meet Joe back in 1982. I'll always be a Les Paul and SG player. But wouldn't mind having one of those though in my collection
