"Don't get fixated on the detail" - best advice ever. Keep rocking Joe.

He's a bore
“Don’t get fixated on the details”--says the guy with one of the biggest vintage guitar collections on the planet.
He says after taking careful note of the serial number being upside down
@@hammill444100% don’t get fixated on the details joe, get a harley benton and just play
The sound of that Strat just made me go “wow”. I’ve spent countless hours listening to Jimi Hendrix at Woodstock, the sound of this guitar is etched into my brain / spirit / soul.
Post 65 cbs Fender Strat more scooped less wiring on the coils.
Hendrix said his favorite Strat was a 60s with 60s pickups and rosewood fretboard (The black one).
It is always a delight to see this man playing.

"His playing moves me" - said no one, ever.
Joe is a real treasure. Fantastic player and heavily involved in charitable organizations. He also has a good sense of humor which is much appreciated.

Joe is already a Living Legend of the Blues ! I am envious what it must be like to play those Hendrix licks so Faithfully ! A Lucky Fellow indeed !
I have to concur, Jimis' whole set at Woodstock is a sonic miracle.
His "Improvisation" from the end of Purple Haze until the dying notes of Villanova Junction is the most sublime guitar playing I've ever seen/ heard.
The sounds he created off the cuff for that performance are unparalleled!.
Peace.
Correct on every thing you said 👌
That "improv" is the greatest example I can think of which shows a musician at one with their instrument.
It's not just his total and utter command of the guitar that's incredible but the depth of feeling and emotional content of the music.
It's just so devastatingly beautiful,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,it can't be put into words!.
Peace.
That’s the triple truth, Ruth!! I’ve adored Villa Nova Junction for years, his guitar is just alive. Hendrix is untouchable, always will be.
@chriswright4677
He was without doubt the most gifted artist of the 20th century!.
He was/is a 10/10 in every department.
He was so humble with it too, boy do we miss him!.
Peace.
Thank you so much for putting out these videos. So great to hear an amazing guitarist telling stories and just playing around.
Both sound great. Thanks for sharing these gems.
Thanks for sharing Joe, great to see these wonderful pieces!
Joe has great guitar wisdom, then I read the comments and wondered is people even listen to what he said! Not on this video! Makes me feel happy and makes me want to be great on the gear I can afford. Great post! Love the positive posts and the lack of negative posts.
People will always hate on others, but better for the happier ones like us😄
One of your best tones!!
It's healthy to hear pragmatic advice about guitars and gear. Thanks Joe 😎
Joe that 69 Strat is special!! Loved the Hendrix vibe you played
Always enjoy you and your collection!
The strat is the one, sounds amazing
I know that Joe isn't a strat guy anymore for quite some time but something special always happens when he picks up one as it seems to push him a little bit more and it exaggerates the dynamics and articulation of his playing. Probably also engages his muscle memory from his young and more hot-headed blues shredding days.

Good to hear Joe give Wishbone Ash a shout. Andy Powell is THE man
Great content and great guitars. Thanks Joe ✌️🤘🇦🇺
Thank you for sharing with us Joe. I have learned a lot following you. I have been around guitars my whole life but never paid much attention except to my brother's 2 LPs and his Ovation😂. He was teaching me how to play but I was 8 and wimpy, couldn't get past the pain to build up tougher skin on my fingertips. I was in love with his cream/white LP Custom.
Holy mother that strat! How clean it is.
That Strat is gorgeous
ruclips.net/video/yfjt9VakUrY/видео.html
Stellar tones. STELLAR.
⭐💯
Joe's comments are just as good as his playing. What a guy!!
Awesome guitars! And I always appreciate a video of Bonamassa, even if it’s just a brief moment of random noodling. Go to his concerts, he plays guitar better than anyone else in the world today. A true music and guitar fan with impeccable tone and musical heart. The man is a masterpiece. Time Clocks was a great achievement.

Just caught his show last Saturday at the Fabulous Fox in St. Louis...true showman with some real chops
My favorite “big head” strat tone of all time is anything from Ritchie Blackmore I love the fat bridge pup tone he always had
Yes!His black 68 strat on Made In Japan is the best strat sound ever!Nothing comes close.
Love these videos from nerdville. Love his stories from the road.You should write a book “stories from the road” or “stories of the guitar safari”
I would love to read something like that
Thanks Joe!
That Strat sounds unreal!
That flying V sounds fantastic 🔊🎶, long live the late sixties 🎶🎉☮️
You are a very modest fellow Joe.
Mr. Bonomassa, you’re a phenomenal guitar player. Thank you for surviving the trolls….
😇
It's a blessing Joe to be mentioned in the same category so kudos to you from all of us whom love you...❤
Joe is today and Jimi is yesterday...Leave it at that. ❤ Cheers from Lido Isle, Newport Beach, CA. 🌊
"don't hear with your eyes" 😂. Love it!
I have a 1968 strat. These were the best fender has ever made in terms of craftsmanship and playability. Not to mention Hendrix played one.
My 82 Strat with add ons sounds the best.
Joe is a champ! what a great guy and fantastic guitarist...
Joe man I love your sound.
You NEED to record with that Stratocaster. It sounded amazing. To my ears what a Stratocaster is SUPPOSED to sound like.👍😁
Calls to mind a "Little Wing" vibe on the Strat noodling. Nice. And some of the slower tempo arpeggio playing on "Room Ful Of Mirrors" jam hearing from the V. Also very nice.
Joe, please write a song using this strat and for this strat. It will be awesome!
Sounded like Joe was gonna play Jimi’s “Hey Baby” on that V for sec, his collection is unbelievable!
Oh my good lord...😮blown away as always Joe..my God 🙏

Master Bluesman for real!!
Flying V's are a trip. They almost sound like archtops to my ears. I chalk it up to the way the cavity is set up under the pickguard.
My ‘81 certainly did.
6:13 that was so beautiful, wow
Took me straight dreaming
His demo of all the Strat's sounds is amazing 😊
Red house IOW is one of my fav hendrix live performances & tones.
That Strats tone is sweet.
Joe is the next blues legend . Stay Cool Bro . ✨🇺🇸🎸✨🗽🎬🇨🇦
What Joe said at the end reminded me of what a golfer (Le Trevino?) once said when asked about a golf club: "It's not the arrow, it's the Indian".
Sounds great. What amp are you using, Joe? It really sings. Love those big headstock Strats!
You're a really good one Joe.
Story of Joe, i was on tour and i didnt own enough guitars so i needed another one lol
Flying V's have a great sound...as I play mostly sitting down I'm not sure I could ever live with one though.
Killer tones here. Do we know what Joe’s plugged into? Killer playing too of course!!!
sounds like a Fender Reverb amp, no pedal. Just the guitars plugged-in
Gibson Flying V'ls are the coolest guitar made. As a bass player, I own one. Just because.
I have a really great Custom Shop reissue from 2000 of this '67 Flying V and it's not only visually spot on, I can hear here that it sounds extremely close to the original too (... minus my playing - blaming sausage fingers cough cough) 👍
"Don't hear with your eyes"..... JUST A SIMPLY BRILLIANT STATEMENT
ruclips.net/video/yfjt9VakUrY/видео.html
Yes . . . And in case you didn't know, don't smell with your ears or eat with your butthole. BRILLIANT !!! 🎓
Good Player 👍👍👍♥️♥️♥️
Joe here, displays the main advantage of vintage humbuckers: they twang. They have clarity, they love the volume knob.
At 6:14/6:15 mark what is that he is playing there? Is sounds so beautiful and I’ve heard other people play it before in guitar or amp demos but I can’t ever seem to figure it out.
It's just a little chordal vamp from your B and A major scale.
Impressive
Perfect sitting down guitar… Just sits perfectly…
I'm so glad Joe is admitting at the end that Hendrix was the greatest of all time...
Then don't go to any Van Halen pages because according to the Eddie Van Halen fans Hendrix sucks!
Wow that looks awesome with the Stinger.....I wonder if Santa's gonna bring me one this year? 🎅 I'll more than likely get a Flying Knee than a Flying V
That Strat in that 1st position p/u was screaming James Marshall Hendrix.
Mann to see u play that bronchitis strat..omfg
Never ever shitty Joe, thank you so much for sharing I really do appreciate your knowledge and collection 🎸🎸
ruclips.net/video/yfjt9VakUrY/видео.html
Hey Joe, were you going with that Gibson in your hand?
🤣🤣🤣👍🏻👍🏻
ruclips.net/video/yfjt9VakUrY/видео.html
Wonder what amp he's using here?
I’ve actually played one of Hendrix’s Flying V’s - it’s in a vault next to the London Hard Rock Cafe. It’s black and obviously it’s a lefty so as a “righty” I couldn’t play much. It still had his original strings on it. Super cool.
The Flying V is like everyone’s dream rock guitar. And ya that Strat is sounds just as gorgeous as it looks. Very cool collection Joe.
Is this the type of V that page used on You Shook Me?
I think Joe buys a new guitar before and after every gig :D
Can´t buy them all Joe !!! Spare some for us
Hey Joe where you gonna go with that Epiphone in your hand ?
Joe wins 😎
That strat is staight hendrix wow
definitely had some Clapton sound in that Strat,
Hey my name is Joe „Flying V“ Bonamassa ❤
Love Joe! Go Joe!!!
ruclips.net/video/yfjt9VakUrY/видео.html
The most famous REGULAR user of one of these, as his main guitar was to me Wally Bryson of RAspberries fame. His may be in the R and R hall of fame these days.
Joe can make a cigar box with a broom handle neck sound good!
Isle of Wight film you get a good comparison of Hendrix on V vs Strat. I reckon he sounds better on the Strat. More defined and expressive.
Hell yes love that Blond Baby
Hey Joe......Have you of that young lady blues Guitarist....Maddie Parker?
That’s always the big question does that Strat sound that good because of the Strat or because Joe plays his ass off? Anyway, both are dope.
Joe knows.
That's a good cup' o Joe
strat !!!!
A collector who knows how to play.
Joe, did I hear you say all humbuckers are great?? Man, could we see you put some Duncan Pegusus pickups in that V and be Joe and the Djentlemens Blues Band????!!!??? Come on, "You Can Do It Man."
" Dont hear with your eyes" joey B's money quote on buying a guitar
2:55 . . . Yeah, I'll probably go out and pick one up 🙄
Best guitarist, Jimi Hendrix. Best living guitarist, Tory Slusher.
“Good enough for Hendrix … good enough for me” … epic line … I am stilling it … JB is the greatest guitar nerd ever …
But pre CBS sell for more money like the late 50s LPs, not without any reason.
69 Strat
That would be CBS era- heaven forbid!
I was born in 67 and Ive decided I want a 67 V. Or at least a reissue. With the lyre so I can shake my hair around and pretend I'm Lenny Kravitz.
looks like a 70s head stock
JoeB the gearhog.
Broncaster! Not for the faint of congestion
Hey Joe! You’re holding the Strat upside down! Flip it around and you’ll be higher than a crack-fiend in the Valleys of Neptune.
