I an old rocker from the 70s and I've been playing guitar for 45 years and I've seen them all. Johnny hiland is by far one of the best I have ever seen. Would love to have a jam session with him one day
I saw Johnny play with the Don Kelly Band at Roberts Western World in Nashville back in the day. It was when he first came to Nashville. It was amazing to stand 6 feet away and watch him play. Totally awesome!
@@jeffmoore9487 He's not cheating, he's chicken picking and his licks / chops are out of control good. He's basically shredding country style licks. I was a metal guy my whole life but as I got older I started branching out. Other players that are mind blowing are Andy Wood The Wood Shed, Joscho Stephan, Jimmy Rosenberg, Stochelo Rosenberg, Birelli Lagrene, Angelo Debarre, Tommy Emmanuel, Guthrie Govan, John 5, Frank Vignola, John McLaughlin, Al Dimiola
@@R_Thomp It was a joke meant to imply that he's unbelievably good. But if you can think of a way to cheat playing guitar, do let me know. For me its nothing like playing poker.
@@jeffmoore9487 I know, I've been playing 34 years and study under a session player. Some people make stupid comments online and since I don't know you I didn't know if you were serious or kidding.
Fuck yeah I'm with you. I've just discovered Johnny and I can't stop watching his vids. I hate country music in general, but I'm into what he's selling.
His best phase, tone, picking. He was on a role. Then he complained about how hard PRS made him work and just preferred to grace the folks back at home in Nashville. And we barely hear of him now… hope he is doing well and taking care of his health and his Kimmy…
no matter the guitar, fact is the other guy's pretty good, hell the guy's got a bleeding 513, one of the finest instruments on earth but here comes the giant hiland. no one'll ever have a fuckin' chance. A TRUE GIANT.

Call Johnny up, he is a dear friend of mine and will surely jam with you. A very wonderful soul
Sooo creative too.

The Smile on the bass player says it all . You cant help but smile , Johnny Killed that chicken with that pickin !!!
Actually the smile was courtesy of being high as a kite.
Just what every country band needs.
Hes the srv of country music.

Man, I'm a metal guy. And this guy blows me away every time I watch him.

He must be cheating somehow?
