I like to come back and listen to these acoustic renditions of his songs every now and then. I'm glad these are backup. I tried looking for these last years and I couldn't even find the SPIN youtube.
He kills it everywhere he goes, Summerfest in Milwaukee a couple nights ago was absolutely nuts. But then hearing these acoustic versions of his songs just makes me realize how even more how incredible this guy truly is: he can easily go off on a 5 minute electric solo on this song or just jam it out on the acoustic. Bravo Gary, bravo.
its funny how everyone seems to want to make comparisons. hes gary clark Jr. and were seeing him at this moment, no need to try and describe his style when we can see exactly what it is
@dinkymau Its a Epiphone Masterbilt. Its kind of like their answer to the smaller body styles that were very popular pre-war (OM, 000 sizes) and are starting to become popular again. They're pretty affordable for their type and from what I hear play just as well.
He's said Hendrix was his main influence. He's usually going to try and sound like Hendrix. Having a similar sound doesn't mean people think he's Jimi.
he isn't technically anything special. I don't understand what's up with people. Gary Clark Jr. is a nice musician, and it's definitely cool that he's sort of getting the dirty blues back into the spotlight, but he's not a some virtuoso guitarist, he's very average.
still coming back to listen once in a while

Amazing artist in his talent of singing/songwriting and playing.
This song is unreal.
Omg I fuckin love this guy.. He's every thing I aspire to be as a guitarist and musician .. I just found out about him today and I'm an instant fan :D
amazing...
This is fucking blues. It's sad and beautiful at the same time.
This bit has a great Bobby Womack feel to it, when he did California Dreamin' and Across 110th Street in live acoustic...
golden
What a dude.
Gibson Hummingbird sounds so good too :)
And not a single dislike was given. Oh yeaaa baby

@dinkymau They also have dreadnaught sizes which it looks like he is playing a single cut away version of it.
The Truth
i love tribal music
YES! NYC is the best! Check out our NYCROPHONE music video blog... Gary Clark Jr. is featured here as well!
slick money
Some kinda Epiphone, I think it's a Masterbilt but not sure the exact model. Good guitars.
Fuckin amazing
It's an EF model. Probably an EF500MCE
Think it's an EF-500RCCE, slightly darker color than the MCE
EPIPHONE MASTERBUILT DR500
Great performance! Congratulations! But what the heck is your guitar-tuning?
I think it’s standard
Yeah it's standard. He plays sometimes in Open G but this track is standard
He's said Hendrix was his main influence. He's usually going to try and sound like Hendrix. Having a similar sound doesn't mean people think he's Jimi.
Amazing! anyone can help me with the model of the guitar?
Hopefully those 6 people were just trying to fire up the J
I know, but I can't find the version used in MP3
Hey Daniel :) dude... we must have the same brain waves for music... lol-
What kind of guitar is this?
Epiphone Masterbilt (500MCE I think). These are fantastic guitars.
Nope.
Epiphone Masterbilt EF500RCCE
I have one in my hand right now, so I can easily tell.
:)
But they look quite similar
haha, it is uncanny, also its weird how you commented on one of my freinds videos
Average guitar playing???
When did you last play at Crossroads with Clapton?
'ngùùùùùùl
Kinda sounds like watchtower

Don't like it... Don't like it one bit. Appreciate the soul. Don't appreciate the melody or average guitar playing ...
actually i like everything bout this dude but his rythem guitar playing defenetly needs some practice
You are missing the point here. He is not a great guitar player. Rather average. But he s got a hell of a sound. Trademark.
