How to Sound Like Johnny Winter - advice from Eddie 9V

[@thomasvee329]

Nice advice on the way Johnny used octaves. Did so many times on Be Careful With A Fool. Thanks E9V.

[@jeffreybabino8161]

The first guitar player i ever saw was Johnny winters great guitar player

[@teredude]

Nice to hear somebody your age know so much correct information about Johnny and great guitar playing.

[@Eddie9V]

Terrance Fields thanks for the kind words!

[@paulcooper5748]

Johnny is great i saw him in 87 brilliant show.

[@richcaro9001]

Thanks for the great Johnny licks! Johnnys my favorite blues guitar player , always has been and always will be.

[@BlessedMe11]

I'm diggin it Eddie! I just rediscovered Johnny and now, can't get enough. This video is extremely helpful to me Brother! Thank you, so so much! I enjoyed the video Very Much!

[@mtadams2009]

Thanks for making this. I seen Johnny twice the first time Lynyrd Skynyrd opened for him at our local civic center and three or four years later he played in a small bar. The place was sold out and my friend and I needed to sneak in jumping through an open window. That was the best show. I was only two or three feet from him ripping it up. This all took place in the 70s. He is a legend. RIP

[@Eddie9V]

Great story Scott! Wish I could of seen Johnny in his prime.

[@dwaynering7115]

i pick up quite a bit from this vid my friend. Thanks and God Bless You!

[@Monz805]

Thanks... That was awesome, informative and a pleasure to listen to.. Subbed🤘🎸

[@JohnnyBGood-ii8kt]

Thank You for posting this on Johnny Winters, I don't think enough is said about him and his playing he was one of the great ones, he love to do a lot of different ways to do things, the first lick Eric Clapton used many times in fact he took a lot from Johnny , as we all take from one another, hopefully we eventually find our own style.

[@mikelagos7755]

good info brooks I enjoyed learning from you

[@Eddie9V]

mike lagos thank you mike! Have a good one

[@justinbradfield6499]

Man thanks for the Winter licks!!!!!! That Goldtop u got sounds awesome with those P-90's!!!!!

[@MaxyG]

Dude is very good. Slows it done enough for me to get it. And Johnny Winter licks are always welcome. Thanks man.

[@Magnetron33]

Very nice job. First saw Johnny in august of 70. Bobby Caldwell (Captain Beyond) was new to JWA. Winter and Derringer were red hot! Thanks for this!

[@stevecocran4899]

Good stuff

[@selmonb921]

Hey Brooks, I found this version from some local band doing a live radio show in 1978...If you dig Johnny winter, these guys, especially Dave fiester who sang and did all the slide guitar, did a killer version...Audio only....Rockin Out and Mean Town Blues Dave Fiester vocals Tight Shoes Live!

[@54fighting5]

The late Dave Fiester was a monster player. Saw him many times around Central Florida back in the day starting with Tight Shoes, then Henry Paul Band & finally the Groove Monsters. He made it look easy. RIP big Dave.

[@russelsellick3649]

You got it man! One of my favourite guitarists ...

[@3340steve]

Excellent thank you for making this cool teaching video....

[@jeffreybabino8161]

My favorite johnny winters album is johnny winters and live

[@We_are_the_light]

One of my fav guitar players, its Eddie 9v

[@chet2020]

nice video. can you do a lesson on winter's version of "memory pain"?thx.

[@Eddie9V]

Jim M ugh love that song! If I get the time I will try!

[@TheCheesyRice]

I’m not able to play it well enough yet to make a video but here’s a good attempt at the tab. I’m sure it’s not perfect note for note but I think it’s pretty close. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bpXcg6hnqdlmarc

[@Sasketchejuana_man]

“Stevie Ray Vaughn’s bass player” 😁

[@paulcooper5748]

Yes tommy shannon.

[@MichaelCorleone654]

They had the same bassist you moron

[@cvolume]

Nice! How about a lesson with some jazzy almost b-bop lines added to blues licks?! Thanks.

[@Eddie9V]

Chris S That’s a great idea! Coming soon!

[@cvolume]

Brooks Mason - dude yes! I know throwing in the 3rd and touching on some mixo is the way to go in general but I can’t find good videos on YT that shows some solid examples. Just want to add some jazz flavor and sophistication to blues licks.

[@MrTennis88]

A good example is I hate everybody from Second Winter. That was his jazziest playing in my opinion. Tone in the fingers and such clean playing, such clarity and taste. He was one of m main guitar heros with Clapton Hendrix and Santana growing up in the 60s-70s as a guitarist.

[@alfatone2654]

Thanks for the tips, Brooks, great lesson. Also love that 1970 Montreux show, where we've got a few more licks we can steel...

[@Eddie9V]

Yea buddy!

[@batmaniac66]

Excellent!

[@kodybear6749]

I liked it

[@ThePduncan742]

Killer info thanks

[@cliffaiken3792]

That’s a nice amp!

[@sumoblues]

Your goldtops are 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@ericbuxton711]

Great video!

[@SalDag]

Not a guitarist, but I appreciate you channeling Johnny Winter. Whoa!

[@jeffreybabino8161]

Na it's basic

[@facundorodriguez288]

That second quick lick is very similiar to the one jimmy page used to play :)

[@Eddie9V]

Facundo Rodriguez Could you imagine the days of no KZbin and all the old players just listening to each other emulating the vinyls. Crazy

[@facundorodriguez288]

Brooks Mason Oh my god yes, I imagine some of them going nuts while listening to a lick that they never heard before and trying to figure it out with no visual reference

[@WindsOfNeptune]

@@Eddie9V the plural of vinyl is... vinyl. : )

[@caelachyt]

JW used a thumb pick.

[@Beezi.]

I think Johnny used fender amps.

[@pwk22]

You forgot Johnny's Erlewine Lazer.

[@bobdillon1138]

Easy get a 120w amp so it tears paint off the walls just before it starts to break up

[@SubtractiveMoves]

Please Please Please Show us that vibrato!

[@AngelMartinez-qs3cf]

Is that a Gibson Goldtop with P90s? What year is that?

[@Eddie9V]

Yes sir!! 2011 Gibson Les Paul trad pro with a lollar in the bridge and a original 53 in the neck.

[@green323turbo]

I think Johnny used Vox amps wher he recorded the Still alive and Well album

[@Eddie9V]

wow that makes a lot of sense!!

[@green323turbo]

Good lesson, you got his style down pretty good . I'm a life long JW fan too. Check out me attempting JJF on my YT page.

[@oldtimetinfoilhatwearer]

You could just steal a bunch of Johnny winter licks

[@alanoliver5762]

Johnny’s speed had to do with the fact that he played with a thumb pick and his fingers, so….. yes his intuitive phrasing was masterful. but if you skip over Chuck Berry and all you’re getting the cart before the horse. all the greats, including Johnny Winter, listened to everybody.

[@jono4708]

Thanks for the great vid the great guitar work and especially giving a shit. Johnny played a lot with chorus effect and used a thumb pick regularly also. I'll be subscribing right now. Oh yeah and I hope you found the dough to fix your music man.

[@Eddie9V]

John OBeirne wow I didn’t really think of that! And nope still just bluesin’ it. Haven’t found the dough yet!

[@jono4708]

Check out "Johnny Winter Blues Lesson" KZbin video. 5:09 min. Don't know how to paste hyperlink. have a good one

[@hectorheath]

Did Johnny mainly use the Pentatonic scale ?

[@raross6119]

Blues scale and panatonics

[@mikemckenna6607]

Nice...p90,s...goldtop..just koooool... Early Freddie King..yaa

[@surfer4478]

It's Johnny Winter! NO S.

[@edwardarata6995]

key of B flat

[@louiesalinas4720]

kool dude me likes!!!

[@precisionbrown6829]

I appreciate the fact that you’re explaining that pedal but nobody can sound alike anybody no matter what you use. Maybe similar but not just like

[@matthewcaldwell3220]

No, you will never get close on the amplification. I've seen and met Johnny and seen him a number of times. In every setting. Whatever you have in the club, I've seen him play through it. I'm guessing the kids about 30 years too late. But hell, I always love to see another person show me another way to play it! Thanks Bro!

[@tombaker8045]

winter in chattanooga. large music man hd 2x 12's. here is amp e.q. all pots to zero except volume at 9.5 and treble at ten.wow, he was Loud !

[@ivansavoie3190]

I've seen him at least 15 times always used music man with 4 10s

[@kempsole]

Welcome back

[@Eddie9V]

Lee Kempson thanks Lee!

[@kenq7948]

That tone sounds more like Clapton than Winter. Especially your excellent vibrato. Also, Winter would play really fast on a slow blues.

[@stenmark2235]

It sounds like shit When you try to play like Jw.... Thankyou..!! 🎸

[@mariamgomez5806]

I struggle with Johnny Winter...Trying to play like him ain't no day at the beach.....Nice job though..Good to see a young cat dig JW...!

[@spigaxsabbath6793]

@@mariamgomez5806 yes i belive your right... Thankyou....

Too much talk. bye

Are you that dimwitted or have too much of a short attention span to learn how to fast forward through the video?
