I've only discovered Johnny (on KZfaq) two years ago - man, this guy is great in all respects. Wonderful guy.

@Michael-mg4tx 4 жыл бұрын

He's so good. And when you hear him talk about how difficult and time-consuming it was for him to slowly read musical charts, you really appreciate his God- given talent and his wonderful soul.

@claytonstringman596 4 жыл бұрын

Such a great guy. I used to watch him play at Roberts in Nashville. I really enjoyed what he said about overcoming hand issues. Im a guitar player35 years and I've also had to overcome and relearn throughout the years. Ive also been overcoming tinnitus and hypercusis. Also overcame a hand/tendon injury which threatened to end my career. Don't ever let your struggles get in the way of moving forward. Make it fun and challenge yourself, you can overcome just about anything. Johnny is living proof of thats.

Hey Johnny, this is Tony, an aged and seasoned rocker from the UK. Back in the day (70s/80s), we did all the USAF bases which was our training ground. Your videos are outstanding, and I have learned so much from you watching your melodic riff's and how you do them. Thank you man...! Truly great

I don't think I admired a guitar player that much in the past 40 years, in particular after watching this (it had me in stitches and tears of laughter). He will make it to the front page of Guitar Player magazine sooner or later, because he is what he is - not just a technique-heavy genre-arching and stunning shred master but a great guy and - at least for me - the current ambassador of the good ole electric guitar.

ChefandGuitar InChrist the issue is that religious beliefs are totally polarizing. An awful lot of people don’t agree with you and just don’t want to hear it. So, given that it has absolutely no relevance to the subject of this video, you’re well advised to keep it to yourself.

@rogerroger7734 4 жыл бұрын

@johnbuell8035 4 жыл бұрын

Is the title of this video ‘God Gathering’? No, it’s ‘Guitar Gathering’. Take a wild guess what the video is about, and what the people here are interested in? That’s right, well done - it’s guitar. NOT your mythical god obsession. So take it somewhere else where people do want to hear it. Here’s a novel idea - how about church on a Sunday? There’s no shortage of religious sheep there. Scattered amongst the pedophiles, of course. You can all lock yourselves in a room, do whatever you like to do and give the rest of us a couple of hours off.
