Johnny Hiland Signature EBMM?

[MetroGnome]

Thanks for the video!

I see why everyone wants a custom version now. It's all about the eye bolts for the guitar strap

Holy mother, what a player....
And did you see the MusicMan 2x10" Combo in the back that he seems to be using???

 

[Ricman]

^^ Ditto!!

I thought he was a C&W player....boy can he shred!!!

 

[telemike]

See that MusicMan amp head on stage behind JH?

 

[guitfiddle]

Awesome playing. Love the Workin' Man Blues. Some really sweet licks and runs in there.

 

[Colin]

I think Johnny jammed on Working Man Blues with BP and Dave Larue at NAMM? JH is awesome

 

[GuitarHack]

Wow, great phrasing on some of those runs! It's scary, but I think JH is getting even better all the time

 

[RocketRalf]

What's his backup? I see a Candy Red w/matching headstock, white (pearloid?) guard and black pups. Is it a trem model too?

BTW, I have YET to see two Silo players that sound remotely the same! Such a versatile guitar!

Pardon me while I state the obvious:
DAMN he's good!

 

[lukather101]

Workin' Man Blues

So good.

Didn't he do a stint with Sammy Hager? Love the rock and country mix

 

[Jack FFR1846]

Workin' Man Blues

So good.

Didn't he do a stint with Sammy Hager? Love the rock and country mix

He rattled off a bunch of people he's worked with over the years. He pointed out that Sammy is making a point to have as much fun doing what he's doing as is humanly possible (my paraphrase).

 

[browndog]

Great vids. Really diggin this guy as of late.

I can remember a lot of stories in the magazines about this amazing guitar wiz who mixed country and shred techniques, I believe he was even endorsed before he ever recorded an album.There are us regular players and then that 1% percent that seem to come from another planet, and he is certainly in that category. For those who frequent licklibrary there is a cool interview with him and Stuart Bull with Guitar in hand (pre Silo) explaining some of his licks and techniques. He seems like a hell of a nice guy.

Johnny Hiland is one of the best guitar players to come around in years.

I thought I read somewhere that Steve Vai signed him to his label just by hearing JH over the phone...

oh yeah, on Johnny's site:

After his manager left part of a demo on Steve Vai's voice mail, Vai called back with an offer for Hiland to sign to his Favored Nations label.
