Bro. We look alike 😮 almost identical 😅 kinda if I stepped into the future me 😂

[@damianrf6309]

Great to see YOU doing your thing for a change, John! Singing, too! You are a real talent.

[@DreaNEO]

Bohlinger is the best rig and gear demonstrator. What a cool idea for a video.... Thank you for continuing to provide great insight and content.

[@premierguitar]

Our pleasure!

[@dexxfilm]

John is hands down the best presenter you guys have and a beast of a musician!

[@QuickLern818]

I don’t even play guitar, I just like hearing you talk about them.

[@TehSyneS]

never too late to start!

[@stanknugget]

@@TehSyneSIt is for some people…

[@MrDonc78]

I need another rc booster. Had the copper Scott Henderson version but traded it in on a jazz master. It was the best boost I've used. I always have the Xotic wah on my board tho. 😅

[@Liam_Doherty_UK]

Unlike some musicians on KZbin, John is a 100% the real deal. I happened upon him performing AJ's on Broadway while we were in Nashville from the UK. A charming, lovely man, with bags of talent.

[@tommykay2966]

Love the video. I was actually just looking for a new tuner to put on my board. I ordered the Peterson StroboStomp HD from Sweetwater on your recommendation. I’ve been playing more outdoor gigs recently, (Summer in WI, short season, but very bright) and this tuner looks like I’ll be able to see it in the sunlight. Very cool last part, when you demo the board at a live gig. Thank you.

[@30smsuperstrat]

John great playing. I wear those Hokas moving packages throughout a brown delivery company. Comfortable as F, but man, latest versions don't breathe as well.😢😂

[@michaeldorrenbacher8977]

You can hear John's playing out of hundreds. And that's a good thing!!!So so special!

[@kenren110]

Nice to hear you play (and sing!) with a band. if I ever get to Music City I'll try to catch you, regardless of the ensemble or venue.

[@cortmiller]

that gibson les paul (looks like a special thats been heavily modified) looks pretty killer. need a rig rundown on Johns guitars and amps

[@petticlone]

Great stuff! Nice versatile board that doesn't break the bank. I like to to stick the tuner between the drive pedals and the modulating and/or time based ones, so it acts as a noise gate too.

[@vandermaas76]

Who doesn’t love hearing John Bohlinger play ?? Great ol’ tune by the Hag. Love it !!

[@williamduvall2800]

Excellent run-through, JB. Thank you, PG. This is a very insightful, educational and enjoyable video to watch. You rock!

[@premierguitar]

Glad it was helpful!

[@RedMercuryBluesBand]

Probably the best pedal board build and demo ever.....from work shop to gig...LOL

[@bldallas]

Cool board, but I really enjoyed seeing you play live. Y’all sound awesome! Thanks for sharing. On a side note, I just noticed the Tele style pickguard on your LP. Very cool.

[@michael_caz_nyc]

I'd love to just "Hang-with-John" and jam, talk music, gear and go see live bands = Guy is so cool. His enthusiasm is infectious. Enjoyed your tones & playing sir. oNe LovE from NYC

[@gr8tnowwhat]

Bohlinger you rock. Great playing, love that style...was hoping Setzer would come out of nowhere and join you on stage to trade some licks. Great video.

[@shooterx9690]

Man Bols, surprised you’re hauling that Super around. When I was in Nashville most players were using modelers/kempers. Love an old Fender.

[@premierguitar]

Very cool!

[@timzitzelsberger3200]

Unbelievable John what style great to finally hear you play

[@levianett]

I wish we could see the whole show, beautiful band and music, also great playing with nice sounds.

[@scottv8410]

i like to always have 2 delays. one fixed slapback and one that's longer and with a higher mix that gets set with tap tempo. usually like boost +drive but if using a 2 channel amp you can rely on the amp to get a higher gain tone. for smallest footprint and portability this is a great set of pedals. i have an old tc pedal that does chorus, phase, flange, etc. to get the "weirder" sounds. that is really optional.

[@FullMetalDMZ]

Really cool to see you play and sing

[@kmickp1166]

Love it John, great playing!👍👍 I was in Nashville a couple of months ago for the first time, what a place, Broadway is live music heaven, all genres represented, great bands/ musicians in every bar! I cannot wait to go back!👍👍🔥

[@gtr1952]

Great video!! John is one of the nicest, hardest working cats in Nashville!! He's also out there interviewing everyone else, but doesn't get nearly enough credit for his own playing and singing!! He's one of the best pickers in town also!! Great job JB, good on ya!! 8) --gary

[@paulfromthefalls2000]

Not sure if anyone asked this yet, but who did the pin striping on your guitar?! That is the coolest looking axe ever! Great demo!

[@matta.4816]

This was great!!! I loved seeing the gear being put to use. What a player and singer!

[@mikesmeltzer6921]

It’s so rad to know that you guys making the videos can play the absolute shit out of your instruments. 🤟🏼

[@gibsonfan159]

Serious question, with technology being as advanced as it is, why do we not see more multi effects on pedals? For instance reverb and delay are the most commonly used but few pedals have both . Compression with noise gate would be great. Tremolo with vibrato or modulation. Chorus, phaser, and flanger could easily be combined in one. To be realistic I suppose it's to make people pay more for less.

[@ttownscott]

love the concept

[@jackperry2670]

11:13 this right part here!!! That lick!! Bro, amazing! I’m trying to work that out now. Please do a video lesson on that. I need to know how to do that!! 👏🏼

[@mikomusic1]

You rule John!

[@SuperJonRobert]

Great to see John doing his thang! Awesome video!

[@zachtheguitarmaniac]

This is so much better than the same ol' pedal and gear reviews over and over again that grow tiresome... often with close mic'd audio and no real world gig context. Along with the classic Rig Rundowns of artists you are already doing, this kind of content is really enjoyable. More of it!

[@alfieboy1]

Wow what a pleasure hearing you do your thing!! Fantastic playing!

[@TimWright-uk]

Magnificent playing! A real pleasure to listen to. More please 😁

[@scootersays]

Nice run down. So cool to hear all these different pedals. I was pretty much a BOSS guy back in my gigging days. I found a comfortable pocket of pedals with them, so I stayed there. So many quality options out there today to choose from.

[@premierguitar]

Very cool!

[@miner49er79]

Hey thanks for the INTEL John ,,,,,,,,,VIVA J.B. !!

[@jpulizzano]

Well that was very enjoyable....would like to see more of you guys playing out....oh yeah, nice fiddle work!!

[@premierguitar]

More to come!

[@evanmiller2579]

Saw you last night on Broadway with the board. Sounded killer as always.

[@pauldavid2407]

That was great!! 🎉

[@chris_kies]

Hope y'all enjoyed this video ... let us know we should do more of this style of content!

[@craigschmidt1634]

I've been following on instagram for a while now, and I always look forward to the clips of your gigs. When i go on vacation to Nashville I will definitly keep an eye out and try and catch one live. Keep it up man!

[@TehSyneS]

This was so cool! Great board, cool gig man, would love to see more stuff like this, thanks Premier Guitar!

[@premierguitar]

Glad you liked it!

[@danf5606]

good lord that feller can really play! holy moly!

[@jamesbennett5065]

Really nice playing John. Where did you mount the power supply, underneath?? Thanks.. Jim

[@premierguitar]

Yes, exactly

[@stepitupandgo67]

Nice playing John!! Fun pedal board! Do yourself a favor and get the ehx super pulsar...a bigger pedal, but so many cool features that the straight pulsar doesn't have....it's really great...just my 2 cents...maybe you don't need/want it for what you do, but it's super fun...I have a rockabilly trio and I need to steal some of those licks!!

[@stratjed]

Best premise for a video idea since rig rundown .

[@bolivarvera9078]

now that was pretty cool playing and singing, cheers John!

[@DarrenMatthes]

Brilliant idea for a video. I enjoyed that very much.

[@premierguitar]

Glad to hear it!

[@ojperez2060]

That was cool. Loved the progression pedals to stage. Face melted!!!

[@premierguitar]

Glad you liked it!

[@jerryhorton5708]

Man, if JB is in a video, I click without even caring what it is. John is the man, a working man guitarist who has been there, done that, and got a tattoo because the T-shirt shrank. John, keep on playing, man!

[@ernieflanaganstingraybassm1463]

John love the setup my friend , great picking snd singing ....

[@rakewawrz5200]

Always kind of learned something from John watching his gigs

[@keeponrockin62]

Great addition, adding the face shifter! In case you have to play some Waylon…

This is rad! Bohlinger out there doin the thang!

Very fun seeing the live stuff!

[@Scott__C]

Have to say a little disappointed the pedals weren't in all directions zip tied down as per John's usual boards. Great playing.

[@premierguitar]

We're giving this one away so didn't wanna "mod" it too badly!

Here’s something to improve further, Bolinger: 3m dual lock tape instead of Velcro. Far, far superior!

Great playing John!!

[@hearpalhere]

That is a sweet pedal board, awesome collection of effects John! And naturally, stellar playing as always 🙂 Even demonstrating the tuner in action after the detune haha! Looks like a really fun gig that you have there with great musicians. Rock on!

[@mykneeshurt8393]

Love it! I have the same folding handtruck. They are great. Super fun video!

[@JonathanKobler]

Dammit, we were just up there for Eastside Boogie. Who is John playing with? Kelley's Heroes? Was he at Robert's Western World? That's what the background looked like early in this video. EDIT: Ok, Layla's My bad

[@JonathanKobler]

Also, if you play Waylon, you must have a phasor. Good swap.

[@Langley-22]

Wow, great gig mate! You rock!!!

[@charleslafreniere1658]

Great pedalboard and well-played as always John!

Sounds solid

[@uncleducky6028]

The gospel of John, chapter and verse. Talks the talk and walks the walk.

[@therewasascene]

I guess with two trems you could keep the hydra with the trem after reverb for classic surf sounds and have even easier pre/post-delay trem selection Oh nvm spoke too soon. Great choice for the replacement Blues disorder does indeed do the trick there. Good choices!

[@googo151]

You're a bad cat John. Nice playing dude.

[@ehambright]

Yes!

[@klrbee03]

John where do you publicize your gigs? When I was in Nashville a few weeks ago I searched around the web to see if you were playing somewhere and couldn't find anything

If you have reverb on your amp, doesn’t that open up a slot on your board ?

I never really paid attention to that. Some of my pedals may or may not have it, I don't know. Thank for watching

[@jonprosise7162]

Very good

[@thomkopal1740]

Do you set your Blues Disorder to the BB, or to the OC setting? Which do you prefer? Do you find yourself switching between the two during a gig? Thanks!

[@johnbohlinger]

left switch up, right switch down @keeley

[@thomkopal1740]

@@johnbohlinger Thanks John - that's the "Blues Breaker" tone setting on the left, and the Fulltone OCD drive setting on the right of your Blues Disorder. Now I get the "Disorder" part of the pedal name, when coupled with the "OC" position. 👍

[@Asado69]

The video does not mention an important piece of gear (accessory) for the gigging musician, namely the cart John uses to take all of his gear to the gig. Do you have any hints on the brand and/or model, even if it doesn't sponsor the video?
