I love listening to you play on Friday Fretworks, Chris. Obviously you are ‘unapologetically’ a Blues/ Rock guitarist, but you go so far beyond that pigeonhole, playing achingly beautiful and at times almost cinematic melodies, cliche free and with phrasing and a feel that very few can get anywhere near. Carry on, please!
I like the word “cinematic” to describe Chris’ playing. The flow in his solos may sound familiar but the notes he reaches for are totally unique. He really could do movie arranging.
All of those guitars sounded just spectacular. However…lol the Tele wow! No wonder the dude kept it. Of course having someone who can brings those sounds and tones forward absolutely helps. Great video.
I am always amazed at how a basic, simple guitar like the Tele can sound so great played in genres from country to rock to jazz, they are just so good, and so are you Chris.
MY GOSH!!! That intro GOLD TOP deluxe jam was insane!!! its what i dream to be able to play!!! just freaking WOW. you never cease to amaze me with the dynamics and bends and tasteful tone that allow each note to have a voice
Playing, as always is stellar BUT the clip of the Nocaster really stood out as everything a solo should be. Sounds like it came out of song - catchy with motifs I find myself humming afterwards. More of that please!
Dude! I’ve been out of the youtube guitar game for a while, you were always a sick player but you’ve reached a new level since last I saw one of you vids 🤯👏
Chris, I cannot describe the emotion you bring out in me when you play, there are very few players who 'touch that spot' in my musical psyche. As your much older (60), first namesake guitar playing brother, take this thing where it needs to go... thanks much.
Part of the excitement I get from watching your videos, is the fear of getting smacked in the face by the headstock when you whack that thing torwards the lens every 15 seconds 😜
Some real beauties there... as a strat guy for the last 30odd years, your recent videos have made me obtain a Revstar and a Les Paul. What was I thinking all these years not having humbuckers and P90s in my arsenal of guitars. So out of all these here it's the LP for me.
Absolutely phenomenal. I don’t have the vocabulary to say anything else. I’ve never seen anyone “ play “ the guitar the way you do. You always hear people say whatever you are doing, be it guitar , cycling , car racing, that you must let the vehicle , in this case a guitar , become an extension of one’s self. I haven’t seen anyone do it better.
Absolutely fantastic. Bravo bravo bravo... I have been playing guitars for over 40 years. RUclips is full of videos of talented guitarists but I have to say that you have really impressed me: sound, bending, timing, phrasing, everything that a musician/guitarist must have. But your feeling and phrasing they truly hit me. So you got a new fan from Italy. Thank you very much for sharing.
Wow that was one hell of a journey you took a song Chris I love all those guitars but most of all I love the chops I just recently clicked on one of your videos and started checking your playing out needless to say wow thank you Chris Buck
True mastery of the guitar. The playing of course, but the way you effortlessly change pickups, volume and tone is amazing. You switch from picking to fingering like a magician. Next level guitar playing.
Man that tele almost had me in tears. Your playing so pure. Coupled with those legendary tools, its actually healing for the soul. Keep ‘em coming! Love the content.
Your playing is totally on another level and you are fast becoming my favourite guitar player. I’d love it if you’d release the instrumentals on these videos as an album or playlist on Spotify. They’re too good to just stay on RUclips. I want to be able to listen to them all the time!!!
It takes a rare combination of skill and passion to have each guitar bring out something so different and still so recognizable from you/from it. Thank you! Take care
Jazzmasters seem to get a lot of (well deserved) hype recently with many artists, like Chris Stapleton, playing nearly exklusively on them. My dad left me a nearly authenic (some wireing and the pickup spacers) '61 it's sound really is nice and great to play. Though my personal love is for the Tele.

Could not have been stated any better. Incredible.
I like the word “cinematic” to describe Chris’ playing. The flow in his solos may sound familiar but the notes he reaches for are totally unique. He really could do movie arranging.
The future of guitar playing is definitely going in the right direction.
Oh my goodness, you MUST be interviewed by Rick Beato! I'm sending him the same message... He MUST interview you on his RUclips channel!
These videos are so good
What a guitarist… my God…
Bloody hell !
They all sounded good , But that Tele at the end - WOW !
Well played 😀
Now that was inspirational. Sick ending jam Chris!
Love these videos 👌
i love seeing priceless guitars played hard and shredded - no point other wise!!!
Holy sht! That intro was amazing! Haven't watched the rest of the vid. but I said omg u ripped it!
I should be able to like this more than one time. There is so much to like on this video. Beautiful. Incredible.
Chris Buck is so cool, he can play a Flying V sitting down. Take that, Chuck Norris.
You really have such a distinctive style, unlike anyone else out there these days. Keep emoting, I dig it.
That Telecaster is a truly wonderful thing. I bet it could tell a few stories. You played it so beautifully as well.
Das CarlCaster
Keep inspiring maestro ❤
You're an absolute beast. Unreal playing, thank you for sharing.
I am in awe.
You did this video with manflu? If you weren't my hero before, Chirs, you are now! 😉
The tone and clarity of the Tele is astounding...
Gawd. 😮🎉❤
All of those guitars sounded just spectacular. However…lol the Tele wow! No wonder the dude kept it. Of course having someone who can brings those sounds and tones forward absolutely helps. Great video.
Back again to Friday F. Thks Chris
I am always amazed at how a basic, simple guitar like the Tele can sound so great played in genres from country to rock to jazz, they are just so good, and so are you Chris.
What an incredible guitarist.
MY GOSH!!! That intro GOLD TOP deluxe jam was insane!!! its what i dream to be able to play!!! just freaking WOW. you never cease to amaze me with the dynamics and bends and tasteful tone that allow each note to have a voice
Yeah, that was something else...
that nocaster tone was unbelievable. Couldn't have gone to a better owner, keep it up man
Chris dude... you're one freaking fantastic guitar player. Congrats.
Playing, as always is stellar BUT the clip of the Nocaster really stood out as everything a solo should be. Sounds like it came out of song - catchy with motifs I find myself humming afterwards. More of that please!
Dude! I’ve been out of the youtube guitar game for a while, you were always a sick player but you’ve reached a new level since last I saw one of you vids 🤯👏
That telecaster was awesome. Wow! 😎🤓
Always a joy to fill the living room with the sound of your playing. Have wonderful weekend.
That outro solo is 🔥
They all sound cool when you play them.
Chris, I cannot describe the emotion you bring out in me when you play, there are very few players who 'touch that spot' in my musical psyche. As your much older (60), first namesake guitar playing brother, take this thing where it needs to go... thanks much.
That opening masterpiece should be the next Bond theme.
Enjoyed the recap. Hope you're feeling better soon, Chris. While we're in recap mode; it was great to see the band earlier this year. 😎
You with the jazz master on stage screamsssss !
Dude!!! Shred's you to the core! 🥹 What a treat those guitars, and your playing, is to watch!
Sure that telecaster is amazing but Chris' playing that thing was bone-chilling. Don't stop!
That Tele kicks ass big time 💥💥💥
Part of the excitement I get from watching your videos, is the fear of getting smacked in the face by the headstock when you whack that thing torwards the lens every 15 seconds 😜
Wow that was great! Especially like how the V and No Caster brought out different playing than normal. Epic!
Chris, you are such a joy to watch and listen to play. I hope I see you on stage someday soon. Cheers!
That Gibson LP intro night the best I've ever heard from you (headphones on) unreal mate.
Very well played indeed, very inspiring! Hope you are feeling better 🤧
Amazing bro 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Dude, I see you pinching the pick with your thumb and index as you use fingers and then float freely between the two attacks. Beautiful!
…I think I be meaning your “pick and fingers” technique. Beautiful, man!
Chris, you're Master of melody, Master of tone, Master of dynamics, Master of string bending... Master of Rock guitar. Congratulations. 🎸🎸🎸
"A clip show"
Understatement at it's best.
The instruments are outrageous, but Chris’s performance is the real story.
He’s about as good a guitarist in the blues/rock genre as I’ve ever heard, rivaled only by SRV (IMHO).
Considering like you, I’d have to sell my home for any of those, that tele, my goodness And your feel for the guitar are magical…
Даа, клёво играет! Мастер Крис!
Chris, all of your solos are top notch but that jazz master solo floored me. Always killing it dude!
Some real beauties there... as a strat guy for the last 30odd years, your recent videos have made me obtain a Revstar and a Les Paul. What was I thinking all these years not having humbuckers and P90s in my arsenal of guitars. So out of all these here it's the LP for me.
Beautiful playing. Same with the guitars. Great clip-show! Cheers from Vermont
Hope you're feeling better soon Chris.
Merciiii❤❤❤❤

Such tasty playing! My goodness! I am in awe!
Wow that was one hell of a journey you took a song Chris I love all those guitars but most of all I love the chops I just recently clicked on one of your videos and started checking your playing out needless to say wow thank you Chris Buck
I'm a big fan. Chris is a fantastic guitarist and great RUclipsr, too. It's always a pleasure watching his Friday fretworks.
True mastery of the guitar. The playing of course, but the way you effortlessly change pickups, volume and tone is amazing. You switch from picking to fingering like a magician. Next level guitar playing.
intro was absolutely gorgeous playing. full of emotion and tasty tricks
You are Amazing Chris, you are the most innovative and "personality gifted" guitarist of last years
Dang the buckaroo alright
Man that tele almost had me in tears. Your playing so pure. Coupled with those legendary tools, its actually healing for the soul. Keep ‘em coming! Love the content.
This was great
Great playing
Damn, the opening song - the note choices early in that piece were awesome.
The intro jam. Jeez.
that LP sound was mainly that old Fender amps - they sound weird - but weird GOOD
I think Slash would be well blessed if he gifted you that ‘59 burst.
The intonation of your fingers is outstanding.
Great playing mate, love your intensity and vibrato. 😎
The guitar at 5.50 sounds great. Just wish I could have that tone playing with my John Thomas
I have never heard a tele sound so good. Bloody hell.
W0W!
Thought the LP's sounded OK, great playing of course... but I thought that there is something about that V. Light sounding... really nice.
Your playing is totally on another level and you are fast becoming my favourite guitar player.
I’d love it if you’d release the instrumentals on these videos as an album or playlist on Spotify. They’re too good to just stay on RUclips.
I want to be able to listen to them all the time!!!
My God you can play im jealous
I want to keep listening to you jam on that Nocaster all day long! Is that jam a part of one of your record songs? Simply amazing. Thank you!
Absolutely sick playing! You are such an original, Chris. Love it!
OMG! The flying V solo is the same magnificent one you did on the 335! This is my favorite solo of yours EVER! 💗 it!
It takes a rare combination of skill and passion to have each guitar bring out something so different and still so recognizable from you/from it. Thank you! Take care
That '51 Nocaster stood out to me.
Jazzmasters seem to get a lot of (well deserved) hype recently with many artists, like Chris Stapleton, playing nearly exklusively on them.
My dad left me a nearly authenic (some wireing and the pickup spacers) '61 it's sound really is nice and great to play.
Though my personal love is for the Tele.
Scorching on the les paul and the Telly. You have a great ear for tasteful runs. Thanks for the demos. Well done on all.🔥
What an entro holy hell. big fan but you out did yourself here excelent! that LP intro
that neck pickup on the nocaster is unbelievable...
Niiice! That Jazzmaster solo was eloquently scorching!
All great and iconic guitars, such a treat to listen to Chris play them.
OK. You've passed the audition and you can be in my band.
Wow !!!!
Your playing is astonishing...absolutely love it!
That Tele sounded awesome!
Chris your playing is awesome
Glorious as usual cheers Chris
Totally enjoy your impromptu compositions!
Always a pleasure to hear your playing. Thanks for that.
