Nice nod to Allen with the red pants and white sneakers. They truly were the 1st band I discovered that led me down the rock and roll path. RIP BOYS. Lord I can't make any changes......
Tom, thanks for another fantastic Video. Love it when you play the older ones. I had the privlige of meeting and talking to Gary once. I told him that even though I am a Bass player, I bought my first Les Paul because of him and his playing. He laughed and Gary was a very down to earth type of guy. I whipped out my "first and last" album and he signed it just like he learned to write in school...no fancy rock star autogragh BS. Gary was so cool.
love it! playing a vintage guitar and vintage music in your modern home, dressed a little 70's too. I do it too every night, it keeps me sain! Best channel to learn skynard.
It makes me so happy that people today have the appreciation for what Skynyrd was back in the day. Granted I can’t play anywhere close to this well😂, I just can’t help myself to geek out over Skynyrd and try and convert anyone I meet the THE GREATEST BAND TO EVER DO IT!!!
Thank you for your videos brother....I hold skynyrd close to my heart...me n my momma always listened when I was a kid....her prime was in the 70s n I'm a 90s baby...been playing since 06....I got 2 epiphone sgs at the moment...I enjoy gary, Allen, and Steve as much as you...God bless you brother, gotta subscribe to your stuff, big fan of yours bro
Love it! Most definitely would love to see more, like the old channel. Gary used to set the bridge pickup about halfway for his rhythm and the neck pickup all the way up for the leads and used the toggle switch to go between.
Wish y'all could hear my nephew play Skynyrd! He's 40 now his daddy had him playing Skynyrd by age 9 or so. He's got em down almost perfect. He plays all over and folks love his playing.
Sounds great, I call those teeth cutting tones. It's all about phrasing, note choice and timing. Just wish I could get with some folks that play like this.
Tom we have the same guitar strap. You’re one of the most underrated guitar players on RUclips. You’ve been great in teaching me about skynyrds tone rather than just making a cover of a song and calling it a guitar lesson.
THANK YOU TOM !! Alan was awesome but Gary is the guy I try to play like ! He was such a fan of Kossoff you can here it in his playing As a 55 year old kid I appreciate what you are doing to help my playing and my relief from stress get better!!
Thanks Tom. Skynyrd is my favorite band, and I have played it since the 70's!! I recently acquired an '81 Peavey Deuce combo amp loaded with Scorpions. I'm still trying to finish getting the Skynyrd tone. Are you saying Allen and Gary actually turned the tone and other settings to 10? Thanks for the reply!! Karl
Love your videos. I believe you have spoke about it before and I know Ed King said Skynyrd wasn’t playing with their guitar controls on 10. Volume was like 6 or 7 and they didn’t use many pedals other that a Phase and a Wah on Needle and The Spoon. It’s not about distortion. Actually you mention all of these. Disregard. I should have finished watching. Good points. I played for years with Volume and Tone on 10 and way too much distortion. It helps backing off the knobs for sure. I have a couple of Katanas myself. I can get good tone from the little battery operated Katana. I have a 50 watt too. Love those amps. Still think it’s mostly in the hands and technique which i’m still working on. Thanks Tom!
Great playing! The Boss does the Marshall thing well. The Peavey Classic 30 is Skynrd in box. When my Classic died I replaced it with a katana - like so many people have done. Yeah - do. Some more vids.
Awesome stuff as always. I plugged into the original Kantana once in a backline, very nice amp actually, played whole set with it. Would love to hear your take on Barnes and Carlisi of .38. Could never quite hear a Mace or Plexi tone, kinda something in between.
I know this will sound unappreciative or even worse - and full disclosure, I've been an Allen Collins' guy for almost 50 years now - ... Allen Collins' licks iconic of course, and led to MANY young guys picking up a guitar. Okay, here's the sacrilegious part ... I think a bunch of them's own talent has surpassed his own - not necessarily pre-crash more so post its injuries & the drugs after. He was always my favorite LS guitarist & always will be still ... I've seen plenty of YTs young men paying homage to AC's guitar parts and sounding better than he does. Fire away boys I might even flame my own self for this comment. ;-)
Man o man. Tom doesnt matter that youtube is full of skynyrd tone and tutorials. You my man are truly the master. Thank you for preserving such amazing music and helping the simple man like me to understand it and enjoy playing it while also having their killer tone.
Those Boss amps are a pretty good bang for your buck. It’s a fraction of the price of a 100W Marshall. I think the only thing keeping him from getting a lot of feedback is that he’s not at stage level volumes in his house. He doesn’t have to crank the volume to get the tone that he’s already found
Tom teaches all these licks and chops from all these guitars that played for Lynyrd Skynyrd he knows what he's talking about he had a channel a couple years back and I don't know what happened but he had to leave, I guess he teaches people how to play golf as well that's his business and I'm not going to get into his business. I don't know why he had to leave but he's back and you should definitely if you want to learn Skynyrd licks this is your guy he's also a very good teacher.😁😎
He knows all of Gary's licks he knows all of gaines licks he knows all of Alan's licks he knows all of Ed's licks he's got it all and he can teach it fluently hang around dude😎
@BryanClark-gk6ie open room to resonant and probably just one mic in the middle or maybe it was being recorded by the one on a shirt yeah I didn't sound good at all but he'll fix it

That was fun. I've been working on That Smell parts. Like Gene Odom wrote in his book for me, 'thanks for keeping my ole fishing buddies music alive'

Hi Tom again glad to see you back bro and thank you and God bless

Great stuff Tom.
Would really appreciate you doing more videos like this one. Many thanks.
Love it! Most definitely would love to see more, like the old channel. Gary used to set the bridge pickup about halfway for his rhythm and the neck pickup all the way up for the leads and used the toggle switch to go between.
I like the sound you got with the natural room reverb.
Wish y'all could hear my nephew play Skynyrd! He's 40 now his daddy had him playing Skynyrd by age 9 or so. He's got em down almost perfect. He plays all over and folks love his playing.
By the way your very talented really appreciate how well you explain it all.
Sounds great, I call those teeth cutting tones. It's all about phrasing, note choice and timing. Just wish I could get with some folks that play like this.
I've always wanted to get Steve Gaines tone he had with that 64 strat and Peavey Mace 320t combo with JBL E-120 speakers
Yes! He's actually my favorite guitar player of the bunch
I like his LP Custom tone
More Skynyrd, really loved and miss your old channel.
Tom we have the same guitar strap. You’re one of the most underrated guitar players on RUclips. You’ve been great in teaching me about skynyrds tone rather than just making a cover of a song and calling it a guitar lesson.
That Firebird real sweet ! But always loved the “honk” of a good Les Paul best.
Great playing and excellent commentary on how you achieve authentic Skynyrd tones.
this is great in every aspect,...this guy knows his stuff. thanx for sharing,...dave in NC🙂
You have their style down for sure 👍 sweet playing !
THANK YOU TOM !!
Alan was awesome but Gary is the guy I try to play like !
He was such a fan of Kossoff you can here it in his playing
As a 55 year old kid I appreciate what you are doing to help my playing and my relief from stress get better!!
Love the content. You nail the skynyrd riffs!

Yes we do we missed you of course we want you to teach us some more stuff😎

Great playing. Cry 4 the badman is one of their best.
So good..love that Firebird…love it all! Keep’em coming.

Those bends are absolutely SCREAMING 😎😎
The Firebird just does it. SOunds fantastic.
Great Playing
Man that gary I need you tone is amazing.
Love them red Collins britches 👍 and them Collins shoes. Just need a “X Rated” shirt 😂
@@mikereynolds3294 🤣
Excellent 💯
Awsome Brother.. thanks..
What kind of clean boost are you using, specifically? Is it an external one or one of the ones in the amp? If from the amp, which one?
That was a crispy intro!
Great job bro. You need to do Ed king and Strve Gains as a play off of Alan and Gary
I know this will sound unappreciative or even worse - and full disclosure, I've been an Allen Collins' guy for almost 50 years now - ...

Now do Ed & Steve😂
you should do a tutorial for searching on your membership videos
@@cartrite7652 great idea!
Man o man. Tom doesnt matter that youtube is full of skynyrd tone and tutorials. You my man are truly the master. Thank you for preserving such amazing music and helping the simple man like me to understand it and enjoy playing it while also having their killer tone.
They used JBL K120 speakers in their cabinets. If you want to get closer to their tone
That was the Southern Rock speaker
The new amps, especially the built in effects type don't feed back worth a schitt. Get a Marshall and a Boss ME70 pedalboard. Legit feedback.
Those Boss amps are a pretty good bang for your buck. It’s a fraction of the price of a 100W Marshall. I think the only thing keeping him from getting a lot of feedback is that he’s not at stage level volumes in his house. He doesn’t have to crank the volume to get the tone that he’s already found
God bless your neighbors
Is that a 58 korina
Tom you should grow your hair long😎
A backing track with original vocal is so much better than acapella. Good playing, though.
🙇♂️💓🍀🎶 🤘😃
Get rid of the covered pickups and swap in some zebras and toss the pickguard. That LP would be so sick. Pickguards are kinda g@y.
to get their tone you need 3 guitarists.
@@nasticanasta no lol you don't
I'm sure you're a good player but You need some acoustic panels and a few carpets on the floor. Sounds you're inside a steel drum.
Lynyrd Skynyrd he can cover all of it he's really good at it he must have got himself a new house and hasn't finished it yet. yes this guy kicks ass
Tom teaches all these licks and chops from all these guitars that played for Lynyrd Skynyrd he knows what he's talking about he had a channel a couple years back and I don't know what happened but he had to leave, I guess he teaches people how to play golf as well that's his business and I'm not going to get into his business.

@@dorfsteen
I know the licks also.
He needs acoustic panels/carpet etc to dampen the sound was the point I was trying to make.
@BryanClark-gk6ie open room to resonant and probably just one mic in the middle or maybe it was being recorded by the one on a shirt yeah I didn't sound good at all but he'll fix it
Too much reverb
Empty room, tile floor!
gonna say the same thing@@Heartgator
I think it wouldn't hurt to have a rug in that room under your amp.
LOL
Hell Yeah! That's really good!!
