    Was lucky enough to see Chris play at basement east and every time he took a solo it was like the whole place got strangely quiet and just got lost in the moment. He’s an incredible talent.

    All those 50 previous times Chris has shown us his pedalboard and explained everything in professoral detail finally culminating here. It was all a rehearsal until the day he met Mr. John Bohlinger. Happy for you, Chris. 😊

    How Yamaha haven’t made this into a signature model already blows my mind ! I’ve seen so many people commenting about just that in every video he’s in! He clearly has the following to make it a success so I really don’t know why they haven’t jumped on the chance! They better act on it before another big brand steps in

  • @andrewbecker3700
    @andrewbecker3700 Месяц назад +2

    Before I even watch this short gear video. I'm noticing that whenever I've seen ANY of Chris's gear reviews. He's supremely confident about what he uses. And can express himself just as easily with loads of different guitars. This lends itself to the absolute best "feel" I ever see him play with. It seems to come reasonably easy, without much thought or stress. This is something that hasn't always translated into his live performances. I've also noticed him playing with his eyes closed more, recently.
    This young man has the chops beyond any doubt. There's still a few kinks to work out of his stage poise though. Its not a matter of "if" now. But when, he'll get over that bit of stage fear thats still creeping in.
    When that hurdle gets leapt, I just can't see much else holding this guy back? The fans are on board 100% already. So thats a gravy train. Chris is something extra special, that has a clear path to wherever he'd like to take it. Its my belief this guy will have big-time success in the next couple years.
    Chris Buck has arrived!

      I’ve seen Chris twice live . Once with Buck and Evans and the other time with Cardinal Black . I was also lucky to have a long chat with him at a Glasgow Guitar show where he was demoing the Revstar . I’ve been going to live gigs for more years than I can remember and I can’t say that I noticed any signs of nerves from Chris , indeed he spoke well at the Buck And Evans gig considering they’d just been dealt a huge financial blow by Pledge Music collapsing . Look forward to seeing Cardinal Black later this year and the release of their second album , Chris is superb as are the rest of the band -onwards and upwards .

    I have commented elsewhere that Chis may have led me astray as I tried a goldtop SG1802 last week and I am now wondering what to sell to make it mine. It was a spectacular guitar to play. Thanks to Yamaha in London for letting me try it - and for putting it back on the wall. I really can't afford it at the moment. Like I really can't afford it........

    @compucorder64 Месяц назад

    A P90 guitar makes a great choice for Chris' expressive vocal playing. The chambering doesn't hurt. I always thought the Revstar was a really nice looking modern design. But this Goldtop with the heavily played in Nitro is the business. Thinking of getting one of the cheaper Revstars and maybe fitting a Duesenberg Les Trem to it. Love my Baum Wingman for similar things about that Revstar (P90 style pickups, resonant, light and unique), and get a whole lot of use of it's Bigsby.

    The reason Revstars fly under the radar is because people are d*mb. The Japanese (Professional) model delivers Custom Shop craftsmanship and quality control, costing the same as a brand new American Ultra Fender and is 500 dollars less than a Standard LP. Meanwhile the Made In Indonesia (Standard) model delivers a lot more than equivalent Epiphones and MiM Fenders, whilst being cheaper as well.
    I hope more and more players, both new and veterans, look up to Chris and Matteo as inspirations to pick up a Revstar.

      They’ve been doing fantastic guitars for over 60 years. Check out their high end LL acoustic line. They’re on par, or better, than any of the high end makers in the US.
      The lower priced, FG Red Labels have been highly coveted by folkies and bluegrass players since the 1960’s. I played a Yamaha SG model back in the 1980’s. They sell for $5K nowadays. It was better made than anything coming out of Fender or Gibson. Look ‘em up!
