    I'll never own a JB cd, or go to a JB concert, but I can listen to him tell stories and kick out lil licks all day long. Go Figure.

      Listen to his music, go see him live, he is INCREDIBLE!!!!!!

      @litemetal Před rokem +2

      You’re Missing out buddy . This old guy is still always looking to improve, in anyway possible, and going to a Joe Bonamassa concert is motivating, entertaining and money well spent. It’s the best night of the year too( sorry honey).

    • @alexcorona
      @alexcorona Před rokem

      I’ve never listened to his music ,or know anyone into his music, but he ALWAYS sells out the local Fox…. Somehow makes loads of money to afford these things. So power to the people who support him.
      I have nothing against the guy, just was never into blues (besides muddy and king).

    Amazing how Joe is always so willing to share his wealth of knowledge and is such a down to earth guy. There aren't many guys like him out there.

    That was very kind that Mark took time out to mention the passing of Ed King which I loved seeing him pop up on guitar videos .
    R.I.P. Ed !!!!!!!

    • @turbinexman
      @turbinexman Před 3 lety

      When Ed King was in "Lynyrd Skynyrd", Ronnie Van Zandt, used to use him as a "Punching Bag", and he got tired of the abuse, and left the band!! It's a shame how Ronnie treated him, and "Lynyrd Skynyrd" lost a great talent!!

  • @dannyh5937
    @dannyh5937 Před 4 lety +11

    I love Joe and his passion for vintage guitars. You can tell his love and appreciation for the art of collecting...it also helps to be one of the best guitarists in the world that's a millionaire with enough disposable income to purchase whatever he wants. He's a virtuoso and can't help but playing a guitar if it's in his hands. He legitimately can't go more than 30 seconds without playing a riff.

    Nice 'hang' ! I have an EPI LP Std + in CSB that i like alot. Often thought about leaving it out in the Cali sun to get a fade like Joe's '60. I think they 'fixed' the finish so that wouldn't happen. Blues Cruise. Marcus King!!! That vid from a few years back still SLAYS me!

    Got to say that, ignorantly, I have no idea who Joe is. Just found out about Norm’s Rare Guitars, so I have lots of catching up to do. Initially, didn’t quite “get” Joe, but he’s an acquired taste. I’m doing some acquiring. Cool dude for sure. Nerdy. And that brings more in my mind than so much more. He’s passionate. He’s down to earth. No more to say. Got some more digging to do. And digging good music, and those who make it… for sure. Thanks to Norm for a new drain on my time :-)….

I thought Hoyer, a German company was around before Gibson...Hoyer founded 1874 Gibson much later 190? I think.... so who copied who??. or was Hoyer just an older unsuccesful guitar company that copied everyone else who came along...just curious... Thanks.....

    Gibson Les Paul Goldtop IS THE BEST GUITAR IN THE WORLD. My father gave me this guitar that he use for 43 years. I have the original amplifier and the strap and case. I say it is the best guitar BECAUSE it has NEVER lost its original sound, it has a sound with body, substantial and fat sound. This guitar is from 1955 ( late ) with its 90’s pickups. My father protected it AS A DAUGHTER, and NEVER NEVER NEED REPAIRS BECAUSE IS GBSON.
