You truly are my idol because of these videos. I have all my life been "a bit different". I refuse to learn any songs. I just want to learn to express my feelings through my playing. I have learnt A-minor blues scale, by my ear that contains everything I need. Now I just have to learn to conduct the feelings to the frets. Thanks for beeing an inspiration for this.

😮😮😮😮😮amazing love ❤️ the sound of that 1960 Gibson Lespaul Dave you made that guitar 🎸 come to life!!! 👍🤩👏🎸🎶🤘🙏

You open up all aspects of guitars I would never have thought of. Just amazing. Interesting information and top top playing. Huge Thnx Dave❤

Once again Dave plays a guitar worth more than my house (and everything in it) and sounds like, Dave Simpson. Awesome stuff.

Dude your sense of melody is really creative and this built up to such a satisfying crescendo. Your solos are so *interesting* and that’s such an important penchant to develop as an improviser. Love your stuff dude, keep up the good work :)

Awesome playing. Totally blew me away. I'm on my 3rd listen. Nobody plays with that much emotion and tonal control anymore. Truly fucking awesome.

That was absolutely beautiful Dave, that is worthy as solo/ instrumental of the year. You truly are developing into an awesome artist, and best part of all is that you are so grounded, have truly been inspired by your journey,and as such it has opened my eyes to tonal variations, auch as been introduced to Master Nick. Thank you😊

Pure magic, thank you. Keep shining Dave.

Wow so happy I stumbled upon you. Your playing is pure eargasm

Wow! Can always tell when you feel at one with the guitar in your hands Dave, there is a magical musical flow that is beyond brilliant, you are a truly amazing guitarist, thanks for this series its been awesome.

It's a beautiful thing to watch when you become one with your instrument. You always make it yours Dave, that's what we love about you, you do it & say it like it is. Beautiful job sir.

I wish you the best Dave

I have watched you videos all the way from the old hat days and your progress has been incredible you really are an amazing musician long may you soothe are souls with your beautiful playing

Dave is a Monster on a Strat but he is a Demon on a Les Paul!! That guitar, Holley's pre-owned or not just got played like it never has before!! That was sick Gravy!! 🎸🤘

Dave, that is just awesome 👌

Phenomenal playing. Truly great. 🤘

Man i could listen to you playing for hours

Man, had no idea anyone was still playing this stuff (takes me back a long time ago) ....what a masisve breath of fresh air Dave...keep it going man....This is what we need,a prog rock guitar solo re-vival...its gonna happen and ur gonna be at the top of it all. Peace.

Your the man Dave !!! Right On Brother !!

Glorious guitar and playing cheers Mr S!🙂

Amazing playing and classic guitar. Perfect match.

Absolutely beautiful

Just watching your interview on jfx nice to get to know you a bit better your insights into jimi was so cool your playing in this video is superb bless you

Gordon Bennett, THAT is one beautiful guitar... love your playing, guitar and guitarist in perfect harmony 😎

Totally in the grove Dave 👍👍👍👍😊😊

Brilliant.... you will be headlining the big venues soon my friend .. 😎 🎸 🇮🇪

loving it

As always fantastic playing and improve one of the best guitarist on earth.

11:00 This part really stood out for me, you really inspired me more to buy an electric guitar (Probably a Jett JS 300). I only met you today and I really like your style. Keep it up, sir!

I got to fool around with Robbie Dunbar's 1960 Les Paul. It was really the finest feeling guitar in my whole life's experience. 1960 was a good year, but Ralph Novak had done the ol' Gibson headstock replacement trick on it, and every time he got ahold of a guitar I think that it became one of the world's finest. The setup on my Vox Phantom was pretty astounding, too. I think that the Novax was the first Fan-Fret on the market, btw.

What a relief to find a Dave vid. I've mostly been watching angry tigers, crocodiles and sharks. I was scared to go to the shops in case they're out there. So thank you Dave, hgmott) hairy guitar man of the Tube) from a Pott. Great sound that LP. And Dave of course.

121k subscribers, I remember joining & it was at 30k!🤘

Ah, I knew you had to have a Lester in the group. Love your content mate!

No matter how hard I try I cannot love Les Pauls to play (I love the sound they make). That says more about me than Les Pauls. Thankfully I have Dave to show me what I miss.

Hear as allways man beautiful playing

Reminds me of the first time I dropped on Phil x years ago he was demoing a 60 burst straight through a small accordion amp and he did the whole lotta love riff and it sounded just like page he then went on to play other songs the guitar sounded awesome just like this one with Dave .

Blimey what was that that just flew by me? Ahhh it was Dave knocking it out of the park again. You're correct in saying that what ATB do is brilliant, but in return they got 5 fantastic live performances from you, so I'd say it's a fair trade

GOOD JOB...Sir..!!!

They way he is playing this reminds me of Gary Moore, The live version of "Parisian Walk Away with "Phil Lynott" on it, The solo of that song when Gary did it live with him in the 80's with Greeny..You are an amazing player Dave and knowledgeable of the ways of the guitar and sound "Thank You Sir"...

Love the Gary Moore approach to the play out 🙂

Nice guitar Dave! Awesome you got to play it, too bad you couldn't take it home...People forget that Hendrix played Gibsons also! Anyway, you are quickly becoming one of my top ten guitarists of all time, right after my guitar teacher Tom Sandahl and also Andy Aledort!!!!!!!!!!

This would have been my No 1. Sound- and lookwise.❤😊

So cool!!

Amazing great to see you play a Gibson, considering you more of a strat guy.

Sorry Dave, been off the radar recently but loved your rendition, looked like You were having fun....xx

SO Very Cool, Thankyou. Stunning Guitar and Playing as always. I have just received an Artist Guitars AP59 "Apricot Burst" for a discounted price. Has a similar look to this guitar. Such an amazing guitar to play, an inspires me tom play at my best. So Happy to have this guitar. All The Best. Cheers

That tone at the end there is pure Bluesbreakers Beano album quality!

Sounds great ,I love the Walter Trout ,Ted Nugent leg lifts when after that bend ..top job Dave ..

I’m hiring Dave for now own when I buy a guitar 🎸 It definitely needs to be Dave approved before making a purchase!!!😁🤩😎🤘

Back in the day, they didn’t paint the bursts differently. It was just cherry sunburst and they all faded differently Fantastic playing, as always!

Brilliant Dave my brother Richard loves the Hollies and also that fuckin g guitar and also loves your brilliant playing

Makes me miss my Les Paul. Alas it's just a modded Epiphone Standard, but she's dear to me. All over my first ever recorded rock album. The one guitar I refuse to sell under any circumstances. We will be reunited soon. A matter of days in fact after 1.5 long (but good) years overseas.

Very very noice guitar.your playing here like gary moore my hero.🙏🙏🙏🌷🎸🎸🔥🔥👍👍🔥🔥🤟🎸🤟🎸🤟🎸

That was pretty f@#$ing great. Love it. Whats on the pedal board. What amp did you use?

Just got me one of those Adam Jones Gibson Les Paul Standard jobbies.

MUST have been hard to put this LP back on the rack...!!!🙄😉👍👍 Great sounding guitar in your hands 😎👍👍 😎✌👍❤🖖

Ok so you need to get the Strat and that Les Paul. I’ve read the 1960 Les Pauls are really sought after, especially the gold tops. That looks better. The butter color at the bottom fading to honey at the top is fabulous 💖. You made that guitar 🎸 happen! I’m sure it’s priced in the stratosphere but maybe you could work out a deal. Can’t believe I’m saying this because I love 💗 all things Strat. Thanks for another great video. 👍☮️🌞🎸🩵

Am a strat guy but the les Paul was my favourite out all the guitars lol 😢.can I ask you do you think digital effects sound better from a solid state amp .got a new zoom multi effects. No likey sound from tube amp lol.

Greetings from America Dave!!!!..…. You would be absolutely surprised how much a luthier setup has to do with how a guitar plays

The 'Simpson kick' demonstrated at 7:05 is a useful tactic when confronted by an assailant. Though Bruce Lee often executed a similar kick in his earlier career, he would go on to prefer the classic 'knee in the goolies', especially if attacked whilst playing pre-CBS Strats.

David , which pickups do you consider the best pickups for a Fender hardtail. The way you play the sound , howl, and clean tone

You sound amazing on this guitar. It will be wasted on a collector unfortunately

Wow..... Heartbreakingly beautiful...

thanks Dave stress reducer.

That's your guitar Dave!

Jam at 6:36 😍

Is one of your original songs in Gm ? That sounded incredible.. Gary Moore sound.

💙🔥🎸🔥💙

Could you please do a video about your process to make your loops thx

👍🔥

You really are F wording incredible . Have you ever considered doing an online learning course ? Id pay to do that as im sure hundreds if not thousands would sign up .

Fookin Heck

I feel good for you dave I'm a 21yro guitarist from persia in style of you (strat player jimi h.john f. style) but dave my life is destroying me Loneliness is killing me i feel like im a invisible nobody see me have no friends or gf never ever leave home just dark room this days it's just me my strat & drugs heavily addicted to opium morphine don't know if I am alive tomorrow. I remember 3 years ago you were kinda experience what im saying i remember you make those songs like goodbye/remember/ and i could feel the pain that you haved but I'm very happy to see you doing well this days it's good for you to have friend like Queenie stay with him wish you best my friend love you.please wish me pray for me that i die one of these days or these lonely and dark days get over i can't take it anymore man.sorry for my bad English🌹

Hi Dave. I saw you asking for some input to expand your channel ... I love your playing and videos and dont wanna see the channel dying... maybe something new like playing other guitars besides les paul or strats might be an idea...I just find myself skipping videos where your trying out those guitars or clones of them. Id love to see you play a PRS or what ever once in a while. your intros are amazing with your ambiant style solos but id love to see a Hard rock 70s style improv jam with a rock beat more once in a while. i dont know i could be so wrong but just some input.

Hi 😊👋

Jesus "H" Christ and I thought the Strat was expensive... BUT... Worth every penny!

That was frightening

I'ld like to hear it Dry no FX's.

What amp was you plugged into 3:16 g

#9 is good Humbucking good

Dave..can you plllllllease do a video of a joyo jackman or so into an orange pedalbaby plllllease🎉❤

personally i prefer the sixties slimmer neck

Sound like David gilmour and Gary Moore a bit

👀

Good And Gone....

I'm just curious, but how much were they asking for that guitar? I might want to sink my retirement savings into it.

I wanted to play a guitar today....but after seeing these skills, I just won't ...cause it would sound like poor jingle bells lesson compred to Dave :) I'd rather watch another Dave tones :)

That guitar is up for sale at £300K....i wouldn't pay that.£300k to be able to play like Dave....? let me get back to you 🤔

Why the les Pauls? I mean you are a stratocaster player

Bet the guitar ain’t heavy

Alright Dave I got a message from you saying I've won a prize. Is this legit?

Just play without the backing track. It's much better and you don't need it. We would have seen more diversity in your playing without that awful droning repetitive backing track. It didn't inspire any magic and you don't need a backing track. You did yourself a disservice sir. Love you. 🙂

Sh*t Dave, that was f*ckin' amazing, very Gary Moore/Prince like if you don't mind me saying. Awesome sounding Guitar and maybe you should go buy it ........ Hope you are keeping well my friend
