Charlie is the whole package. I could listen to him all day long...❤❤❤ My bro (also a guitarist) got onto Charlie back in the 80s and has been a big big fan ever since. We are Aussies. On my bucket list to see Charlie live in concert one day. Hey Charlie..Jimmy Barnes says hi..! 😎✌🇦🇺🐨
Had the honor many years ago of meeting Charlie via working on his '49 Merc with Sexton's friend, Mercury Charlie. Sexton was just as laid back and friendly as he is in this vid.... He didn't know me from Adam, but since I was a friend of a friend, he talked to me as if I was a good friend of his. Awesome personality and an absolutely phenomenal guitarist.
Favourite guitarist😊 His playing in Bob Dylan's band is fantastic! Subtle, complicated, inventive and complimentary to the great songs. Really cool to hear him speak about his guitar. Thanks😃
STRANGE ANECDOTE. I WAS ON A BUS YESTERDAY, AND I WALK ON THE BUS, NYC, AND THIS DUDE IS SITTING IN THE BACK WITH A GUITAR CASE. I COULDN'T HELP ASK ABOUT HIS AXE, HE SAYS IT A "COLLINGS", AND THAT IT'S NOT MADE ANYMORE. I HAD NEVER HEARD OF A COLLINGS, BUT WEIRDLY, I LOGGED INTO RUclips LAST NIGHT AND THE FIRST THING THAT POPS UP IS A VIDEO ON COLLINGS. THIS GUYS A LEGEND. THANKS FOR POSTING AND THE INTRO TO COLLINGS.
I have NOT listened to Bob Dylan in almost 50 years, but after this first exposure to Sexton, I can see why he has a steady gig. He has the whole package.
hes the band leader when Austin has big benefit or award shows Will is pretty good too. i met his mom in my schlotskys on south congress one on her way to work one day. She would brag about Charlie and Will and was an angel to talk too, Good Austin
First time you ever play one after a lifetime of hit or miss with other guitars, you just wonder how everything is so perfect on them. I've had 7 on them. In order to get one that wasn't perfect, a prior owner had to file the nut slot low following instructions for an add on trem without understanding what he was doing or why.
I am as far from an elitist as you can get an I play a Soco Deluxe because it is just that amazing. So versatile and perfect for everything. I wont touch any of my Gibsons while this guitar is in my collection.
+Kevin Moore I own a Gibson Les Paul Standard, a Gibson Howard Roberts, and one of these Collings SoCo's... the Collings destroys both Gibson's. Gibson's have not left their case in a year.
Gibson is every place because they are the best! I only see Fender and Gibson on the stages played by the greats! Never Collings, I know of them but it is another Les Paul copy.
+Kevin Moore - Budweiser sells a LOT of beer, not because it's good (it's dreadful swill) but because they spend BANK on advertising. Fender and Gibson make many fine instruments, but also invest heavily in advertising and image-making. Many makers produce instruments every bit as good, if not better than theirs. A lot of instruments you see on stage may LOOK like Fenders or Gibsons, but they're actually made by others. Collings have a stellar rep - have for years...
I'm not sure how you think that a semi hollow body guitar is a copy of a Les Paul guitar. That doesn't make a lot of sense. I also don't agree that just because you see Fenders and Gibsons everywhere that makes them the "best". I see more Kias than I do Ferraris but that hardly means that the Kia is a better car. Not to say that your opinion is wrong but given that you haven't even played the Collings I don't see how you could comment on what is better.
Charlie and Bill, #1 and #1! Rare example where 1 + 1 = #1 !!

Fantastic sounding and looking guitar. 🎸🔥

This has to be one of the BEST dual humbucker guitars I have heard!... Totally want now!
Thank you sir. Much appreciated!
I have NOT listened to Bob Dylan in almost 50 years, but after this first exposure to Sexton, I can see why he has a steady gig. He has the whole package.
Now that's a proper demo from a pro taking his time.
Amazing how he has evolved from a teenage sensation to one of the best in the business
The talent, tho … 😮
And humility.
Godspeed, Charlie🙏🏻😁
Great tone! Much more revealing than too many of the other Collings demos. Best demo I heard yet of the Throback pickups.
Big fan of both Charlie and Collings ... great combo! thx for sharing :)
Saw him live in Toronto in the 90s, with DB2 and Double Trouble as ARC Angels. FanTastic.
Lucky!
Love this guitar. Charlie gets such a warm tone from it.
Very nicely done demo and insight into what makes that guitar an extension of Charlie's playing.
Great looking and sounding instrument. Charlie is a great player too.
Beautiful tones from some very capable hands
Nice sound. Very Sextony!!! Great instrument demo too. Very informative and not stale or humdrum!! :0)
This is a lot like the sound he got on Dylan's "Soon After Midnight" (on the Tempest album). So lush and lovely!
Saw dylan and charlie last night wow!!!
Amazing tones and looks killer man!
Beautiful tone. Looks like that old fiddle body bass, man.
Sounds great
Great demo...! Showcases what this Collings can do...thx 😎
Nice touch!
damn that sounds just beautiful!
Wow I want to hear him rip out the guitar solo from Sunday Clothes on that beautiful guitar!
Lovely...Who in the world gives this stuff a thumbs down?
Charlie is genuine rare these days.
hes the band leader when Austin has big benefit or award shows Will is pretty good too. i met his mom in my schlotskys on south congress one on her way to work one day. She would brag about Charlie and Will and was an angel to talk too, Good Austin
This dude is absolutely the man. Never plays any stupid shit.
Just like Dan from that pedal show.
Sounds awesome , great guitarist playing it thou!! My favorite!
And still so HOT!!
anyone know what amp he's play'n through...thanks
I'd say something with 6l6s
Is that the guy from 'Boyhood'?
What amp is being used?
Legend
at lunch w my brother in law today. for an hour all he talked about was Collings guitars...

Great player
You can tell he has really bonded with THIS particular guitar VS being kind of a shill.
Throbak ER-custom pickups?
Collins makes great guitars..will they now.?...is Mr Collins gone?..
Size 12 hands 🙌🏻
Tone monster!!
He certainly is!
but what kind of guitar does Lil Wayne use?
We need another Arc Angels record. There are NOT too many ways to fall.
If he and Doyle could've stated together for a bit longer man they could've made magic
Gosh he was still cute!
Wiring please !
👊
Ouch! Those are all at least 6-7k!
Actually, there are. Put the band back together.
That guitar sounds so “alive”
I have a i35
The fret markers are a nod to the great Michael Stevens.
Tone
ican sangget lick clear Foun
P
He will never learn to play guitar.....😎😣
This company does not support songwriters, snobby elitists, we don't need your bear claw BS, if you aint got no sole.
uhhhhhhhh...what?
elitists
I am as far from an elitist as you can get an I play a Soco Deluxe because it is just that amazing. So versatile and perfect for everything. I wont touch any of my Gibsons while this guitar is in my collection.
Nice guitar but most Les Paul copies are nice. I own two real Gibson's and have no use for rip offs.
+Kevin Moore It's a guitar that's obviously influenced by Gibsons I'd say, but certainly not a LP copy given that it's semi!

moron or troll?
You may need to re-evaluate this ridiculous notion.
потрясающий инструмент...отличный гитарист! лайк! 🙂
