In this half hour interview, Sutton describes his guitar-filled childhood (including how he studied the technique of Jack Lawrence) and offers us tips on overcoming mental hurdles in your playing. He also tells us about his favorite guitars, including the 1942 Martin D-28 that he's playing here.

This episode was filmed before a Hot Rize show at Seattle, WA's Neptune Theater on December 10, 2014. Pardon the background noise...bands were sound checking during our shoot.
Bryan is a legend. I need to sign up for his class!
Great guitar playing philosophy all the way around. Great guitar playing that showcases everything that's described in fine detail. It's a lesson just watching this video. A really big lesson.
Thanks very much for this interview. It's a pity, however, there were no questions about Bryan's amazing new album, 'Into My Own'.
You have the coolest job in the world. Thanks for doing it.
Great....

What is the name of the Abbey Whiteside book he mentioned?
I have a question. Is the audio in this video taken from the two mics placed in front?
Yes, we used the two Ear Trumpet Edwina microphones up front for audio. This was a difficult shoot due to a lot of ambient noise (bands were sound checking and PAs were being tested) but we did the best we could given the circumstances.
+Fretboard Journal It still sounds very good, thanks for posting this!
Everything is great with this melody and its improvisation. But you could simplify it here and there, and it would become better.
Okay, great video. Next time, remember we who play do not care about the face. We love the fretboard, right? Focus on that. please.
Awesome skill level, but musically, way too much frosting and not enough cake. Doc played it simpler and more musically.
+Merlyn Schutterle I'm glad everyone doesn't paint with the same color scheme. Sure would be boring...
Merlyn Schutterle Too much sour cream on your taco?
Merlyn Schutterle I’ve noticed that, in any genre, improvisation becomes more complex as said genre “grows into its own,” so to speak. Doc played in the formative years of bluegrass, so his improvisation was more straightforward (no less impressive though). But, as bluegrass has evolved, the foundation having been laid, flatpicking has become more complex and ornamented. I think there’s a time for the straightforward and the fancy. A healthy mix of both is best
Look your Doc was only a one dimension "good' guitarist. He couldn't play anything decent outside bluegrass...Period
@@fleds8517 Doc started that style and stayed true to it. Earl Scruggs started his style and stuck to it even though there were fancier players. Chet had his style and couldn't or didn't play blluegrass. Chet's style didn't fit bluegrass/oldtime and that is why he got fired. These men crated their own styles and the rest followed them.
