      I'm from Brazil. Pau Ferro means something like Iron Wood. I worked at Giannini's factory and Pau Ferro was used at the neck of the acoustic guitars. Ps.: São Paulo is the biggest city in Brazil.

    I like him. No pretense, no ego, no bullshit. He was genuinely excited to talk about his humble little rig.
    And this serves as a lesson to many of us. You don’t need a crazy $3,000 handwired boutique amp and a massive pedal board to get sweet, soaring tones. He’ll run a stock mexi strat and an amp that anyone can go buy for $300 - 500 and sound amazing.
    Tone is in the hands.

    • @neilpatrickhairless
      @neilpatrickhairless 4 года назад +44

      Came here essentially to say this. Everyone buys all this bullshit trying to sound like vintage blues players, when a lot of those guys ripped out riffs on stuff like $80 Corts and solid state amps and cheaper Peavey amps. It comes down to the opinion of guitar player fans versus guitar players.

    • @neilpatrickhairless

      Never have I heard someone say "You need a $3000 amp and massive pedal board to sound good" Not once...in over 30 years. There is no lesson here...other than, if you have it, you have it. If you don't, you don't. More often, I see people with everyday rigs making themselves feel better by shooting down top shelf rigs as a waste of money. Ludicrous.

      @@ezzong I'm here looking for "pick comments". I talked to Chris and his, (late), mother about a joint investment into a pick that I had invented. I had been turned down by Eric Gales, years before. I can't explain it but It sounds unique but it is not patented. It turned out that pick patents had advanced, so it was unlikely to be patentable. Lately I drew a new four piece model: It's time to hire a patent lawyer, and find partner$. BTW: I advised him to endorse a low end Peavey amp and make it sound great. He was new.

I heard this amazing sound coming out of one the clubs so we had to go inside and see who it was. It's was KINGFISH baby! A few years later my wife got tickets to the Experience Hendrix tour at the Orpheum in Memphis. This young man was on the tour and had grown so much musically! He's so talented!

    I had never heard of Kingfish - but how the hell could I not want to dive into his playing after hearing him play here? He sounds _great_! And such a great, down to earth guy, you just have to like him. Thanks for not only showing me his rig but actually introducing me to a great player!

    One of the few new players where everything is just smooth, and he's his own dude. The smoothness and perfect manipulation of the strings is really unusual for someone so young.

    I used to cringe any time I saw John Bollinger on these Rig Rundowns. He came off like such a goofy sumbitch ALL the time, almost like he was doing a parody of himself.
    Over time, and especially after hearing him play, I have really come to appreciate the man for who he is...a guy who has the best damn job on Earth and knows how to love EVERY second of it. He’s not pretending...he really IS a goofball, but it’s not a front. He’s just a guy who loves what he does and is unapologetic for it (and rightfully so!).
    This is one of my favorite rundowns. Christone is just about of of the most genuinely sweet guys in the biz. His mama raised him right! I can’t wait to see him live... That boy straight up attacks those strings. His passion for playing music is plain to see and the fact that he loves to share that passion with the world is a gift to us all.
