John, we still love you. Danzig has never been and will never be the same since you, Chuck and Erie left.

Danzig II is a criminally underrated guitar album. It's phenomenal.

The Legend, one of the best guitar player ever

Definitely the best guitarist Danzig has had.

How about a lesson for "The Violet Fire" ??? Underrated tune.

You are my favorite guitarist John, the more of you we see on KZfaq the better KZfaq becomes!

I get the honour of personally knowing John, though we haven't talked too much since the the pandemic started. Hell of a guitar teacher, he is.

These riffs are timeless and give chills!

Indeed one of the best. Unique style, ranging from ultra dry blues tones to metal shred stuff. Would Danzig have been that successful without him ?

My biggest guitar influence! Been a fan since 89, seen you several times. Danzig took a turn for the worst when you left, man, your sound made that band. Much love brother

Saw you & Danzig at the Underground in Seattle in the late 80's. One of the best shows that I had seen by far. Also, before the show you guys were at the Mcdonalds across the street, you probably don't remember, but I do like it was like yesterday! You also, handed me your gig pick, after the set. Man, what a show, hope Danzig will consider having you back. This would be great; I would definitely go and see that. Thanks for the inspiration.

Man that is a super great album John and everyone involved in this thing. That means everyone. Thanks for the tunes. I appreciated as a kid when it came out like i do today.

Was always a fan of his work!

Legitimately America's Tony Iommi John your a legend in your own right 👍

Such a great guy! Awesome of you to do this!

Love your playing John, bluesy, soulful and brutal

Such a masterpiece of guitar John thank you

That album changed my life . I was tired of regular metal and grunge was okay . But this album . I was living in the swamp of devils pocket tx so I fit my life perfect

Saw you twice in Boston. 1989 The Channel and 1990 Axis. Both shows were superb, thank you again Mr. Christ 😎

Das erste Album Ende der 80er hat mich so dermaßen mitgerissen! Ich hab von 1990 bis 1993/94 jede Show in Hamburg (Deutschland) besucht. Ohne Scheiss ... ... das war für mich die Offenbarung! 19. Okt. oder Nov. 1990, Markthalle in Hamburg, ... das war so dermaßen heftig, ich stand wie paralysiert da .... .... die Show hat mich mega beeindruckt, umgehauen... Der kraftvolle Sound Deiner Gitarre, Chucks Drums und D's Stimme... Energie, Kraft, purer Rocknroll.... Danke für die tolle Zeit und die Tonnen von Inspiration. Vor Dir, John Christ, ziehe ich meinen Hut!!!!!!! Meine allerherzlichsten Grüße und alle guten Wünsche!

Awesome to see that you’re still a god amongst mere mortals of the axe, John! One of the best. ⚔️

Just happened to come across this. I saw y'all twice in San Antonio , both concerts were the best live shows I've ever seen. I bumped into you at the bar and got your autograph and guitar pick, it still looks new cuz i bagged it when i got home. Thanks for the memories

Thank You, John! Your guitar playing was and still is such a huge influence on me. The first 4 Danzig albums are untouchable. Hope all is well!

Happening JC. you will always be the man!

Part of the thrill of chasing the holy grail of guitar tones, is trying to dissect the little nuances that make up the tremendous tone and power that made the first four Danzig records so very special!!! Thankyou for your work sir!

Keep making these videos. I'm learning from you. I'm enjoying these alot. Thanks!

Where has this been all my life. I absolutely love John's playing in Danzig. Big fan 🤟🤟

One of my absolute favourite guitarists! Your guitarwork in Danzig is second to none. The good ol days. Be well, Mr Christ!

Caught a couple of your shows in St Louis at the American Theater back in the day. Some of my favorite shows ever. I miss those days bro.

An absolutely terrific player. I've been a fan since I bought the first Danzig album in '89 then saw them live in L.A. Superb guitar player.

I love your guitar style, you are AMAZING 🤘🤘🤘

John Christ is one of my biggest influences in guitar. The first songs I learned front to back were John Christ/Danzig tunes.

The Best sound I’ve ever heard The first few bars of mother is the most I ever have felt alive and still till this day

John Danzig has never been the same without you! Its a;; about your awesome guitar playing and sound with the vocals that no one can copy .

Love you John, you are one of the people who inspired me to play guitar!!!

Was lucky enough to see John with Danzig back in Glasgow in the early 90s. The show was moved from the Mayfair to the Glasgow Barrowlands and the show was all the better for it as it allowed for a far bigger crowd and Chuck's drum riser. I was bang in the front row and as much as I appreciated the whole band-John was on a different level, not just on a playing level but with regards to his tone too. Pain in the World was astounding and John's sound would cut you in half during it. Still one of the greatest shows I've ever been too......And I've been to a lot.

AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!! The descending chromatic and the outro for ‘Am I Demon’ is one of my absolute faves and probably most played Danzig solo in my daily old school Danzig fix. I need these lessons in my life!!!! You rock John!!!!!

This is amazing. Thank you!

John we need more like this!

John, when I was 14, I saw Danzig at Pulsations in Glen Mills Pennsylvania - it was my 1st concert. Me and my friends won tickets from a local college radio station. I was blown away and became a life long fan of the band and started playing guitar. At one point during "Am I Demon" you looked at me and my buddies like "will this riff ever give me a break?" and I thought that was cool as hell. To this day I still love playing along with your songs. Was playing Twist of Cain wrong for 30 years, but finally figured out that sneaky D# in the main riff. Appreciate your simple, tasty, yet nuanced style man!

I have a lot of fun playing your songs. Especially twist of cain.

Very informative video. I hope to see more from you!

Just wanted to let you know, You are one of the guitar players that inspired me. Love your riffs and solo work. We actually cover your songs in practice every so often. Thanks for the riffs and the music!

We need more music from John 🎸❤️‍🔥

How are good to see you dear John!! You're great!! 🖤 🤘🏻🤘🏻

An original player. Not one of the 17000 notes per minute wonder boys, I am excited to find this. I like players with signature tones and phrasing, one of those guy's you immediately recognize but find it difficult to analyze. Thanks for a wonderful instructional!

John, I met you as a kid outside The Chance in Poughkeepsie, NY nearly 30 years ago and I asked you about jazz influences on and you talked to me into checking out Charlie Christian. Took me a while to figure out how to connect him to, say, the solos on Am I Demon, but I get it now. So glad to see you showing us fans more of your methods of madness!

One of the greatest guitarists to have ever graced the metal scene. Your rifs and solos are tremendous, they bring me back to better time.

1000times better then Tommy Victor. He should be taking notes watching this🤘

Man, I was at the shows in Indiana back in the day!

Recently discovered the first 4 Danzig albums. They are classics and you are a guitar genius!

A true legend 🎸💥💪

This video is gold 🤘

Did not know you had a channel! I subbed and liked. You are one of my favorite and very influential guitarists. My band actually covers Mother.

All that I can tell from this is that John still seems to be a great Dude, and that I, and numerous others (on KZfaq) have been playing (or teaching) these songs wrong.

Absolute legend.

Amazing!!!!

Hi John, Steven! This brought back the same memory I told you about way back 2000 or so. My mate Charles and I were walking up the sidewalk to an indie record store in Richmond Virginia, (before we even knew Glenn had done anything after Samhain,) and from a half block away, we could hear Twist of Cain just pegged in the store and blaring into the street. We looked at eack other like "who's that!?" We walked in and found out and both got copies of the record. I hope you're still doing well and happy Old Bean! Like all these commentors have already said, that first era Danzig is untouchable and is every bit as fresh, vital and visceral today as then. 🤘

I love it!

When I was 13 years old I saw the danzig home video with the video for am I demon on it. Idk what it was about that riff, but man you made me want to play guitar! I'm not on your level, but Thank you so much forever!

Legendary guitarist

Those pinch harmonics are so righteous!

No one can play those riffs like John.

Awesome. One of the first songs I leaned was twist of Cain. Always been a fan since.

This is badass, love it

This guy ... Omg. He's just amazing. Stage presence, with that charm and seduction, at the same time he had a unique way of playing. The hair ... just perfect.

Love it.

i love John you are such a huge influence to me, tnx for your magic. Cheers from Buenos Aires, Argentina

Hi John, it's great to see you back on the guitar! It would be awesome if you had the time to upload videos regularly or do some kind of live AMA. In my opinion, no other guitarist is as much soul and emotion as you do! Wish you the best, keep on rockin!!!

The master!

One of my big influences!

John brought more to the band than his incredible playing, a little thing called TONE, and not just the electronic sound , but the attack and it’s affect on the sound. tone comes from the hands!

that BC Rich is amazing. i can tell it's a comfortable axe to play

Great stuff!!!

I saw you guys back in '93 in a club called Sneakers in San Antonio. Epic awesome show! My girl and I got close enough to get a hand slap from Glenn. The place got destroyed. One of my top 3 shows in my life. Good old days!

Happy to say I was the 1000th subscriber! Oh and this vid rules

Bodies chords is a mystery to me, hope your doing well. By the way your guitar playing is the most powerful and emotionally packed that I had the pleasure of listening to.

Tony Iommi, John Christ and Jerry Cantrell are my favorite heavy rock players. And John is by far the best soloist of the three!

Mother's solo its awesome

Friggin awesme

Thanks John!

Danzigs dark energy must have drained enough over the years that John escaped the campbells soup can

of course this is genuius and the best videos on YT

Wow nice to see you back with Danzig for one more time

You should do a video for "let it be captured" such an amazing song

Your note selection is always sinister- I’ll always be a fan

John was the one I learned pinch harmonics from I listened to that first album 500 times and watched that Danzig home video I even went out to get the I think it was a boss od 1 to try to beef up my gain cuz I think I saw you use it in the home video

Yeah! Go John!!!!

At the 10 second mark I was waiting for the cymbal \ tambourine sound from the drummer to kick in. John's slow chord playing of Mother sounds like Warlock from Lost Tracks,

My hero.

You’re amazing the best Danzig songs include you

Great player, awesome Bich !

I've probably spent more time learning Danzig songs than any other band. JC is a huge reason why.

my first concert ever was seeing you on the Danzig II tour in Santa Monica with COC, one of my favourites still.

One of the most underrated guitarist of all time this dude is a fucking legend keep on keeping on brother wish nothing but the best

Im back and im reiterate you are awesome player. Is that the same perfect 10 from the vhs .you and the guys really need to get together and hammer out those songs. That would be something to see. Thanks man for being an influence. I have like.... 4 or 5 Bich now. I love them.. even after death.hahaha

just hope one day this monsters get back together...

Thank you JC. I think you are a horribly under recognized guitarist. To me, you are the Peter Steele of hard rock guitar: In that: absolutely brilliant talent, but no Rolling Stone twat “got it”. Therefore they couldn’t sell article inches. I had the absolute pleasure of “meeting” you guys (shaking hands), in 1992. I loved The Misfits. I Loved Danzig. But I absolutely loved your Twist Of Cain riff. An absolute game-changer. a.

Hope you’re doing well John you’re the man

Wondered how you been John, thanks for bringing back some really good memories!
