Guitar Teacher REACTS: Chris Stapleton - I Was Wrong (Austin City Limits Performance)

It comes with experience and study, but the most important thing is patience. Some stuff it will get more work to get done while others will be more easy. The more you study and listen closely it gets easier to recognize some patterns, chords and notes. I'ts like learning a new language. Keep working!

“Sometimes I cry” while listening to Stapleton. Holy immense talent.

Crazy great

[@Deadman7782]

The drummer and bassist are glued to chris playing. This is pure improv on the end.

[@gregrios6044]

It was simple in its complexity but so masterful in its intricacy. The bass player had his own runs and added his key moments when Chris gave him small spaces.

His bass player is JT Cure, been playing with Chris for a looong time

I came down here knowing this comment would be here somewhere, thanks!

We all know that Chris is a vocal hero and a hell of a song writer but now, thanks to you, we also understand what a guitar champion he is. Generational talent for sure.

Chris is by far one of the best singers ive ever heard, especially live. Literally the voice of an angel lol, a big ass angel though

His voice is obvious, but really learning to appreciate how soulful his guitar work is. And yes great bass and drumming!

This guy has helped me so much as a guitar player he helps you unlock things on your own and puts you on the path to figuring things out instead of just showing hey play this note for not he shows you what YOU CAN DO instead of what your supposed to do

As usual! Mr Stapleton did NOT disappoint! His cover of Amanda is EPIC

[@lewisturner4543]

Yes! Finally a Chris Stapleton vid 😀. One of the best modern country singers!!

[@READERSENPAII]

except he's not country lol. just because country station's play his music and he wears a cowboy hat doesn't make it country.

[@lewisturner4543]

Let me reword that - one of the best singers out there.

[@mbsnyderc]

@@READERSENPAII He's way more country than most they play on country radio,just because he doesn't limit himself to only country nobody does these days.

He is not country, and by no means moderno. He comes from the legendary Steeldrivers Blugrass band and he is a singer, throw any genre at that Guy and he Will kill it. I hear more Soul than anything when he wings (even bluegrass)

[@downeybill]

Not the best, but actually a truly great player. Maybe because of their feel for melody, structure etc. Great singers and songwriters really know what to do with a guitar if they master the language. My favourite songwriters are often great players: Gordon Lightfoot, Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell, James Taylor, Neil Young, etc., etc.

[@em_pen]

Loved watching you react to Chris in pretty much the same way as I do! He's amazing, gets so much emotion into a song and you can't help but feel it deeply. I've never felt as moved by music as I do with Chris's exceptional songs. Morgane (background singer & his wife) is spectacular too. What a team!

[@Guitargate]

Totally.

[@cathyscott394]

JT Cure is his bass player, they played together when Chris left Steeldrivers and was lead with The Jompson Brothers. He is one of his closest friends and you can feel the connection they have. Love your insights on music and life!

[@ivaylomladenov3185]

This is one of the coolest reactions to Chris.....

Chris and his band at their best. Simple three piece set but the dynamics of the performance is second to none. They play with one heartbeat, everything playing off of Chris's voice. To look sweet.

Mike, I am SO GLAD you mentioned how good the jazzmaster sounds. I am a singer first, but the reason i bought my first electric guitar was based on his tone and sound off traveler. Its so killer.

[@chrisb18741]

No idea how to play any instrument, but loved this video. Made me want to buy and learn guitar.

This song is about the vocals, the vocals, the vocals, and then the tone from that P90d Jaguar.

Chris Stapleton is a genius.

[@rustyrobots426]

Glad you're doing this, been listening to this version for a couple years now and love it, he's not massively technical as a player but he just owns it. Sometimes that's all you need.

[@bigdguitars]

Yea like Albert king.

[@garymaidman625]

For those that say music these days isn't any good, they obviously haven't seen Chris. He would be elite in any era of music.

[@pyroman6000]

That guitar looks like a Jazzmaster. The extra controls for the "lead" channel, the unique trem, and the p90 looking pickups. I have one myself. Plugged into 2 brownface princetons, and a Vox of some kind (likely for the reverb, as his princetons don't have it). HELL of a tone he's getting here- I could listen to that all day!

[@phogan47]

Wow, watching this for the first time and hearing that you got those oysters from PEI when Chris Stapleton just played here, I love it! PEI is a gem come visit

[@codypendragons]

So obvious this song is part of a set they all performed somewhere. I got a chance to see the intro to this. The way you're speaking about the band, he introduces his band members. He highlights every one of the musicians. If you get a chance check it out. It's just cool

[@ersheetz2021]

Chris plays like no one I've heard. Many unexpected notes that are perfect. Maybe, Shelter or Sympathy for the Devil from the Stones catches the same vibe in rock. A lot more jazz inflections here though. Chris is THE music man today.

[@joegates3580]

Please do one of Chris’s older bands, The Jompson Brothers. Barely Alive.

[@Blueee51]

And The SteelDrivers

[@scottpalmer8368]

Had The Jompson Brothers went on to be more than the intended "garage band," they would have been huge. I LOVE Stapleton but I dig TJB's stuff more.

[@gerryjamesedwards1227]

MIchael, try thin superglue and tissue paper. CA glue was developed as a field dressing for the Vietnam War, and is safe to be applied to an open wound. You get some inside the cut, squeeze the sides together and put one ply of tissue paper over it. The tissue will soak up some glue and form a callous-hard covering which also holds the cut closed. I sliced into the end of my left forefinger with a razor saw, it was stopped by the bone, but I patched it up with CA glue and was fully healed 2 weeks later. The scar is better than an untreated wound, too. It looks like it was sutured.

[@taylorbryan5175]

Same here, buddy. My dad taught me while we were baling hay. Water to rinse the wound, a dab of diesel fuel to clean the wound and stop the bleeding, and a smidge of Crazy Glue to seal that cut tight. Wrap it up in a bandage and that combo will get you through the rest of the workday no problem.

[@Fnberg744]

Haa! Heck yeah. I did duct work forever and you eventually learn how not to filet yourself but I'd use a little swatch off the bottom of my shirt and sm superglue and any kind of tape. Back to work!!!

Hey Micheal, whats up? I have been playing guitar for 25+ years and I have to say that I love your channel. Even though I am not learning the guitar, I have found that its easy to become complacent or plateau in your learning. So the thing that I find great about your channel is that I am exposed to great new music that I might have never heard as well as older stuff that I might have forgotten about. The point is, that even though I have toured the country and played music most of my life, I have not peaked and I do not consider myself to be finished with my musical journey. I am glad to be traveling with you for now!!!! I feel we are kindred spirits. So if I'm a musical hitch-hiker, thanks for the lift!!!!

[@johnserrano9689]

Chris Stapleton and Tyler Childers are two at the top of their game. Worked their balls off and you know must've put up with serious lows. Not that many many others don't, or don't deserve this or that but Chris and Tyler are locked in their own ways and style, learned from staying at at they're beyond powerhouses. Chris has earned all those awards with his raw power. Tyler Childers will someday be in those shoes, let's just all hope the city folk aren't number from Stapletons domination when Tyler's reaching those heights

He's incredibly talented to say the least. He's also an accomplished songwriter. There's a video from CMT Crossroads here on KZbin featuring Keith Urban and John Mayer performing Keith's smash hit: "Sweet Thing" with a legendary guitar solo at the end by the two of them. You'd really enjoy it.

[@rvdvfender]

[@RogerThat902]

I love this breakdown, particularly the part about the band complimenting Chris. I've seen him do a set basically just him and his guitar and usually w/ a great singer that's the best because the band distracts. I think that's why acoustic unplugged sets are really popular. However, the way Chris uses the band, etc. actually makes this version better IMO. It builds tension and takes you on a ride the singer songwriter performance, while still amazing, doesn't.

[@michaelhutchens4243]

I changed a PCB based EL84 amp (Hayden Dual Mofo) into a Brownface Princeton on the strength of Chris Stapleton's tone, with a turret board, new transformers, all new valves (6V6's, obv.), in fact the chassis and cabinet are the only original parts left, oh, and the fused IEC socket LOL. It's got a 12" Alnico and sounds great. I love the bias-vary tremolo, so swampy.
