Another great episode.. 👍🏽👍🏽

Terrific video, and such tasty guitar playing. I'm subscribing to hear Chris.

I have a Fender Pawnshop series “Jaguarillo” Jaguar with a slanted Atomic humbucker and 2 slanted standard Strat single coils. (with 5 way switch) I absolutely love that thing. It’s different but it has great sounds and plays really well. Also love the Original standard Jaguar

On the Jaguar, I love the "if you can play one of these, you will have no trouble flying small airliners" look of the controls

This might be my favorite Chris Buck solo of all time!

Killer episode! From the incredible playing, to researching, recording, video editing, touring, writing… You’re putting in the work, that’s for damn sure! We see you, brother. 🫡

This is a Hollow Body II….The Hollow Body McCarty has two tone and two volume like a les Paul. I have both a Hollow Body II and a McCarty 594…they are awesome instruments!

On a business sense, it's just not worth it.....

Man, punk would have gone in a whole different direction if Chris had been part of the scene.

Over a £800 for the Array pedal board, way over priced.

Other factors if you are going to gig the amp; Can you afford to have 2 of them so you have a backup? Which is rugged enough to be hauled around from show to show without breaking? Which is more repairable if it does break down? Will your audience be able to tell any difference?

Chris favorite word is ubiquitous!! Very unique word but I swear it’s in every video multiple times some times! Not hating , just observing. Love Chris’s videos!

Shaking the neck doesnt do a damn thing

Only the briefest mention of the Mustang? That's a shame, it would have been good to hear you play one. Need to find one first, I suppose, I don't think I've ever seen one in real life. Another big factor that made them appeal to the punk scene was that 'boring, old people' weren't playing them at the time.

Never liked the Jag or the Jazzmaster but what you played today was something else!

With reference to the rhythm circuit....it's only the tone control that has a 50k pot, the volume is 1meg,same as the lead circuit.

You get all your straight-up rock urges in this video, Chris! Yahoo! 😁

Spectacular and tasteful playing as always 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

what this the tune you are playing with the p90 les paul? I know the melody its very famous but I dont remember the title!!! phenomenal playing as always by the way!!!

I’ve never played a jaguar I played a jazzmaster recently it was a made in Japan surf green it played extremely well the £1100 price tag meant I couldn’t get it but I’m working on it 😂

I love the sound of the rhythm circuit. It does make for a great jazz tone! Love it for fingerpicking.

To my ears the standard sounds better

Hi, love the show just a bit of advice if you would, my Fender Mustang V 111 is on its last legs, our band gigs on a infrequent basis but only in pubs and clubs so to speak ,my question to you is l want to buy another amp, Fender GTX 100 or 50 Watt l only play rythm and up to now have only ever had my exsisting 100 Watt amp on volume 5, do you think l would be pushing the 50 W version too much all the time ? sorry to be a pain Kind regards Kevin

You're actually so inspiring, man, please keep it up.

I remember the first time I saw a Jazzmaster. I was 16 and my girlfriend's father had a country music TV show. He owned only 1 guitar and it was treasured and spoken about in reverent and hushed tones. I remember him opening the case and revealing a beautiful sunburst Jazzmaster. I was struck by the quality of it. That was 1973. Move forward 40 years to 2013. I was in a guitar store with my wife getting something quick. Just out of curiosity, I wandered over to the vintage section, and they had just taken in a 1975 Jazzmaster in perfect condition for $3,000. I told her about it and so she wanted to hear it. So I plugged it in and played a few minutes, and she said, "OMG, it sounds beautiful. Like bells ringing...". I was amazed by the neck. It was thinner side to side and front to back than any guitar neck I had ever played. Fantastic to play. Great to hear. It was a beautiful guitar. I went back a week later and bought it. It hangs on my wall today and it has a name. "Kitzi's Bells", though I don't play it nearly as often as I should. I have 62 guitars at this point, and most of them have a story behind them. This is the story of that Jazzmaster. I do really appreciate and enjoy Chris's playing. After seeing this, Chris always inspires me. I think I'll use it on an upcoming recording.

You need to try a bass vi sometime. It’s a gas.

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,and,,,,,,.....oh ,,,,,,, the tension....... on a squire.

Certainly did those 2 guitars justice, sir! Really must try both of these at some point . . . lovely sounding instruments and, yeah, Johnny Marr! Thanks for another great ep.

Learned a lot about the Jazzmaster thanks. Awesome outro jam. Great sounds!

Whenever I need a bit of inspiration to pick up my guitar a dose of Friday Fretworks does the trick every time.

Here in Australia, the local guitar company Artist have their own take on the Jazzmaster - they call it the *Grungemaster* , with p90s. It's a very finely crafted guitar at a low price. They also have a baritone version with a longer neck and humbuckers. (I have both, heh heh.)

Such great playing.

Ferociously great playing on this week’s video

Chris.. As a beginner guitar player in 1968 I had chance to play a 1964 Jazzmaster as my first real pro guitar.. (a friends uncle had one). The first guitar I ever played that had low action and I instantly realized I had been playing a cheap crappy guitar!! I'll never forget that day and I didn't even play it through an amp! Also around 1977 Elvis Costello rekindled the Jazzmaster to a younger generation and worldwide audience with his hugely successful first album My Aim Is True. Awesome Playing and Video this week as always Chris! Cheers!

After playing guitars for over 50 years, I recently purchased a new Squier Jazzmaster and a Squier Bass VI which I enjoy immensely. I have many other guitars, single coils, P-90s and humbuckers but always gravitate back to my Fender and Squier offsets.

Has hecho un gran trabajo, has reproducido los solos de guitarra de George con una gran maestría. Te felicito, abrazo grande de un beatle- maníaco desde la Argentina.

My first guitar when I was12 was a Gretch 64 Astro Jet offsset body and ebony fret board and zero fret so many controls! Didn’t really know what they did! You should check one out! It also had suoertron pickups!

Amazing sounds and playing Chris. Love a Jaguar.

Stellar guitar playing.

Leo liked musicians he would have embraced them all

Not a knock on you,these ALWAYS sounded THIN to me..AND all the switches just seemed like it was trying to do too much,Example the Jaguar!

Absolutely awesome sir 👏🙏

Damn dude, some of my favorite sounds this week, I'd like to get ahold of some of those jam tracks for myself. Great playing as always and nice to see the jaguar as well as the jazzmaster getting some due. With some guys playing these it seems a novelty. With you playing Chris, it sounds very much for real and right at home. Keep it up my man, always killer to get to listen to these Friday Jams !

Excellent history lesson, explanation of guitar functions and playing examples as always. All in 15 minutes. Brilliant , thanks. And just a week before my birthday...mmmmmm?

your second solo is outstanding! one of the best i’ve heard from you so far. is it from an existing song? if not, you should write one around it!

As long as you tape off all the unnecessary controls with a duct tape, you’ll be fine.

Mate, I wax lyrical about that 2nd jam at every chance I get, but every single one here and on each a guitar I seemingly adore more and more. How does it feel to wake up in a different league Chris? Phenomenal playing mate

Man, that exit jam was particularly tasteful. Cheers laddie buck.

We need more surf guitar puns!

But does it really require a man-bun and skinny jeans? Just kidding, sir... you rock! Another damned fine video!
