    Right now, they’re in Europe, but Atlanta-based rockers with a distinctly Southern musical accent, Blackberry Smoke, smoked Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium for two nights in February before jumping the pond.
    Their latest album, You Hear Georgia, was produced by Dave Cobb in Nashville, and hit the top of the Billboard Americana/Folk chart when it was released in mid-2021. PG’s John Bohlinger caught up with guitarists Charlie Starr and Paul Jackson before their sold-out show at the Ryman to run down their ever-expanding universe of gear.

      Hey Premiere Guitar! You guys edited in the wrong picture at the 10:50 to 10:54 minute area. The guitar you showed a picture of has a Varitone and is not Charlie's 335 in this video. Just a heads up.

      Fantastic rig rundown guys. Charlie is awesome. Nice to hear him mention how great Warehouse Speakers are. I put one one in my 65 Princeton Reverb Reissue and it made a great amp even better. I even liked it better than a Celestion Gold I tried. I Couldn’t be happier with Warehouse and their prices are very reasonable.

    Damn, Charlie is the frickin coolest.
    This probably the best rig rundown I've ever seen. No douchey roadies smacking chewing gum, no obnoxious background soundchecking, and Bolinger wasn't constantly interrupting the artist. Best of all, Charlie isn't awkward, and knows what he's using and why he's using it. He's a great player with a great ear, and a super cool cat.

    I am an absolutely massive fan of Blackberry Smoke. They are a GREAT band and Charlie Starr is really awesome. They're carrying the Skynyrd torch for sure. I feel a really strong kindred spirit with Charlie and think we have the exact same influences. I've been recording Gary Rossington solos on my channel in the last couple of days as a tribute and I'm sure Blackberry Smoke will do a great tribute as well. We're southern boys for sure!

    • @shable1436
      @shable1436 Год назад +1

      Rip Gary, yes bbs is a southern rock, but mostly they are a mix of crows and Atlanta jam more than southern power chords like LS did, in my humble opinion

    • @SimpleManGuitars1973
      @SimpleManGuitars1973 Год назад +5

      @@shable1436 There's actually quite a bit more complexity to Skynyrd than they get credit for. I put them in the AC/DC sort of category that there are so many bad imitators of them that people start to think AC/DC isn't all that great either. I totally get what you're saying though and agree.

I've done tons of research trying to find out about that guitar and even found it listed a few years ago on Reverb in a shop in Ohio and reached out to the shop that had sold them to ask them about it and they didn't really know too much about it. It's an unreal looking guitar!
