Get a short scale parlor guitar, tune It down a full step, start to play. One is never too old to learn, just a couple of notes will make your day. Three chords, your life.
Like Liam said, no time like the present! Just get you a cheap acoustic and watch RUclips, tons of lessons out there. Or if you want a more personal experience look up instructors in your area!!
Thank You Justin. You are the most musical player I know. Not silly legato typing exercises. As on old dude struggling with malignant cancer, your music gives me peace. And someone gave you the very best compliment: You are not playing the guitar, you are talking through it. : )
Yes sir my friend they're not a lot of people who understand how this man speaks with all of his guitars he is a musical genius and hate to hear about your cancer sir it took my grandpaw and this song reminds me of him so much and I send so many prayers and good will to you and your family sir
Dang... Justin I think you're a part of my cadré.. This is the fourth or fifth time you've uploaded a song that my soul needed that day.. This is a song to my Daughter whom I am missing terribly. I will see her soon but until then thank you for giving my heart a voice today
I've never seen you say you take requests LOL, but I think I'm not to let that stop me 😅 but someday if you feel inspired to do so there's 50 year old mom of one, that would be just elated to hear you play," My Girl", one of these glorious Days. Her name is Elizabeth Gracie Mae, btw😘🪶🫶😊
I've never heard anyone make the guitar sound like this. You make it look effortlessly, as a guitarist myself I understand how much talent you have. Im blown away by how great you make it sound. Very glad I happen to find your music here on RUclips. Can listen to you play for hours. So relaxing and soothing. Keep up the good work Justin
Lordy!!! That moody soulful bluesy undercurrent vibe really disarms you and gets right under your skin, you have no choice but to surrender and enjoy! The man has a rare talent in his ability to interpret a song beautifully and give voice to a set of strings even though no words are spoken!
Lots of fine folks, that know their music, say Justin Johnson is underrated. I agree. But when you consider that millions of people heard of him, or met him, or say he stayed in their house, or subscribed to his channel. Whatever the reason. Added up, it makes Justin Johnson Guitar GOAT and Musician of Musicians status.
I've been actually playing for about 50 yrs. and played all over the south ! listened , played , picked with about all the bigger performers and without a doubt , Justin Johnson has the keenest ear for Heart felt soulful music ! My desire has always been to not,,, just play that wood box , bu tomake it describe my feeling and actually speak ! Justin Johnson can make that happen , time and time again !
Your talent never ceases to amaze me! One guy. One guitar. So much sound! Subtle here. Bold there. And everything in between. I can't comprehend how one brain can keep track of it all!! I sure hope we both get to Heaven because I want hear what that God given talent sounds like at the ultimate level!!! Everything good true and beautiful comes from the Lord, and that was beautiful! THANKS!!
Ain’t no Sunshine was the first song I heard after I lost my Yellow Lab, Tootsie. She was the most gentile soul I have ever met. Thanks for playing this song, it brought a tear to my eye.
As hard as this would be to play like Justin....he is so relaxed. Just very much feeling his music....this is why you can feel it so deeply when he plays.!
Justin,just wanted to say your incredible man. You've inspired me to pick up the guitar after fives years of being discouraged I couldn't play again after a injury to my strumming hand. I've been back at for about a month an couldn't be happier keep it up man
Beautiful playing! Thank you Justin. Love the guitar, it sounds amazing, but then I imagine you could make an Amazon box strung with rubber bands sound great!
A masterful arrangement of one of Bill Withers (RIP) finest songs. It almost equals the pathos of Withers' "Grandmas Hands." Well done sir...well done.
Quand Justin Johnson joue les autres, ça devient du Justin Johnson... Ce Bill Withers Latino plutôt que blues avec du Jose Feliciano dans l'air (“come down Jesus”) est vraiment belle. Merci pour cette interprétation personnelle menée de mains de maître. (When Justin Johnson plays the others, it becomes Justin Johnson... This Latin Bill Withers rather than blues with Jose Feliciano in the air (“come down Jesus”) is really beautiful. Thank you for this personal interpretation carried out by the hands of a master.)
You’re such a fantastic artist . You make me want to use my guitars for firewood . I’ve been playing for more than 50 years . Thank you , for all the great music you’ve given us .
Джастин !!!! Вы очень хороший гитарист!!! Кометы читаю через переводчик и еще больше восхищаюсь !!! У Вас судьба талантливого гитариста, музыканта на долгие времена !!!! С большим уважением, слушатель из РОССИИ ,УРАЛА, ПЕРМИ !!!!!!
Years ago, when I first started building my digital song library, "Ain't No Sunshine" was one of the first to be added. Your cover of this song is wonderful. It builds slowly, and gradually works in complexity, including your own imbellishments sprinkled throughout, that makes it uniquely a Justin Johnson version. Good job.

I wish that 60 years ago, someone had encouraged me to learn guitar.
No time like the present
How about now? I hope the heavens the answer doesn't embarrass me but to your hands still work? ❤❤😏😁😘✨🫶🪶🙏🏼

значит были более интересные дела- раз 1960 годы не стал играть на гитаре- тогда же все наверно на гитарах играли - битломания и так далее)

I hope you are well soon❤️
Its gonna be all good, fella. Cheers
Peace.
Keep playing there's nothing more healing 🤫🗿
I think we could ask Justin to play "Mary Had a Little Lamb" and what we'd get would be a beautifully haunting, rich, compelling piece of music.

I really love music's way of showing up just when you need it, too! Love that it's doing that for you.
Talking bout showing up.. i wanna sing on that!
Ain’t no sunshine without Justin’s fingerstyle gems! ☀️🎸💎😎
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know……..
He certainly brightens a dark day.
That's what she said
Thanks!💰 Here's $10 to show some appreciation JJ, you ROCK! 🥰
Thanks so much Jo-Ellen. You rock! 🎸
Justin you're the guitar Man 🪄🎸
You skills are unmatched
truly, his own league
And your English! Yes he's great

I just absolutely love that naturally amplified woody sound that you cannot get from piezos.
This is acoustic guitar heaven.
Thank you JJ!
Wrong! I knew from the first note it is a blended tone. I saw two dif mics and the 1 1/4" plug out the butt. Great Am blues music and tone!

One of my favorite tunes!
Justin your an amazing guitarist. I could listen to you all day. In fact sometimes I do.
Wow absolute magic
Ain’t no Sunshine was the first song I heard after I lost my Yellow Lab, Tootsie. She was the most gentile soul I have ever met. Thanks for playing this song, it brought a tear to my eye.
Missed you for a couple weeks! Welcome back, “smooth talker”!
No Vocals Required. That Guitar Sings Alone! 🌺
Justin's playing is a perfect drug. A vibrational cleansing, healing and spiritual improvement.
My 00-18 loves you, Justin, because you inspire me to really work my butt off to be a better musician. Thanks for lighting the way to magic.
Herrlich! Toll gespielt und ein Weltklasse song!👏👍🎸🎶
Amazing as always. Yes, please tab this. I’ll never be able to do it justice but I just might be able to drink some whiskey and mess around with it
Whiskey and guitar sounds good! 🎸Here's the link to the Tabs: www.musicnotes.com/l/Vlchq
DamnJustin! Simply brilliant!
I fell into this and couldn't get out. when it ended, things got very quiet. i needed more. Thanks for taking me to that special musical place.👍
As hard as this would be to play like Justin....he is so relaxed. Just very much feeling his music....this is why you can feel it so deeply when he plays.!

Coolest version of that song I ever heard, well done!
Some times you take my breath away Justin.

Fabulous song
Absolutely what I needed on a Friday night! This is so serene & smooth 🤍
Beautiful playing! Thank you Justin. Love the guitar, it sounds amazing, but then I imagine you could make an Amazon box strung with rubber bands sound great!

Love to hear you play Justin. It always seems to show up when I need it most. Thanks! Hope you and Nikki are both having a great time! ❤
Instant goosebumps. I am so often left asking myself how this man and his guitar reach so deeply into my soul.
A masterful arrangement of one of Bill Withers (RIP) finest songs. It almost equals the pathos of Withers' "Grandmas Hands." Well done sir...well done.

As always, thank you for sharing your talent and your skills with us.

Really tasty work Justin!
