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.

Please don’t stop doing these. We love ya Bolinger!

Bolingbrook is always happy, enthusiastic and out of the way; He let’s the artist present their gear, and is pretty good at coaxing them to demo it.

Underrated? Not sure to understand this word... They're not, any person who loves Rock knows them and knows how good they are.

I love how Charlie gives a story for each guitar and lets John get a feel for each guitar too.

Charlie Starr is one of my all time favorite guitar players.

And he' s such a nice guy.

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.

what incredibly nice men these are. Spontaneous, cheerful and kind. Not arrogant. They take the time for internet interviews and rig rundowns. A great band with great, ordinary guys. I love them .And that goes for you too John .

What a great Guy Charlie is 🙏🏻

Great interview. What a charming and welcoming guy Charlie is.

I love how Charlie shares the guitars with John, simply handing them over to say, "Here, you should hold this to get a great feel of it." 🤜🏼🤛🏼 "Charlie is Fawsome" 🤘🏼🎶🎸

Getting ready to see Charlie and the boys for the fourth time next month. This band is like a breath of fresh air for southern rock and just damn good music. So nice to see this Rig Rundown.

Love the Rig Rundown with Bolinger. One thing I wish they would do is show a 30 second clip of the band playing the gig so we can hear it all together.

John is one the best interviewers. He knows when to ask questions and when to just let the interview subject just talk.

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!

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

@@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.

Wouldn’t you just love to sit down in a pub and just shoot the shit with Charlie and Paul? They are so down to earth and cool. No wonder they make such great music, all of 'em!

Charlie Starr is probably one of my favourite players!!! He has such a phrase nobody else has… of only I had 1% of his talent I d be set 🤩

Loves every guitar till the last screw and lets John hold and take a proper look at them, what a great dude!

The Bohlinger enthusiasm is infectious! Love It. JB is the man and why I watch a rundown for a band like this i'm not familiar with and Its fantastic!

One of the nicest guys you will ever meet seems like. Most guitar players won’t let you tip there guitars but he wouldn’t care if you wanted to take one home with you. Got a really good sence of humor

BBS is one of the very best bands in the business doing incredible stuff. Charlie is the genuine goods too, what a monster player and super good dude. Johnny B, good job outta you as usualy brother man. thanks

I grew up about 25 miles south of Lanett Alabama. In Smith's Station Alabama. If Charlie reads this, im glad someone from our area made it!! And yes Mr. Starr Sir you made it. Cause you make music that touches people in thier Souls!!! Thank you Sir !!!

Charlie is an American treasure. What a cool dude and a heck of a musician.

I love that old time finger picking. There is nothing like those old riffs.

I could literally watch Charlie play guitar all day long. He makes it look so smooth and effortless. #factorydefault

I love that Charlie and Paul did this themselves instead of using their techs. Class act.

Smiled the entire time!!!!!

Great Band Blackberry Smoke proper Stuff and John B is a top Fella 👊❤️⭐️🌞🎸

Love ya Charlie! and BBS! Best band around!

Fabulous guitar tones from Charlie at their London gig last night. Some of the best guitar sounds you’re ever going to hear live. Killer.

I just love guitars, and these are really nice instruments here.

My favorite band !

Blackberry Smoke is frickin AWESOME! Congrats on the great video!

You don't hear many rock stars say they got their guitar from Guitar Center 😆 but I dig this band and these guys rock! Thanks for the rundown, got me some new pedal ideas now

Minimalist Esquires & Juniors broken in over decades, bereft of finish have holy grail tone.

CHARLIE'S interviews are SO awesome .... Saw one a few years ago with the ""4 Horsemen" guy's guitar !!! LOVE that guitar!

Just the nicest guys on the planet, including of course JB!! Peace 8) --gary

Charlie Starr ain’t all about Charlie Starr,he’s about the band and his music. He’s a great musician and a great person.

I love Blackberry Smoke! I love rig rundowns! This is great!

This is one of the best rig rundowns I've seen. Love Charlie Starr and Blackberry Smoke. These guys are giving southern rock some good justice.

So cool this interview. Thank you Premier Guitar. Charlie is a star! Got my tickets for Paris and Brussels in... get this September 2024. 2024. Dang. And await the new album in... wait... February 2024. Torture. Rocking with ya'all. !!! Merci.

This is one of my favorite rig rundowns, those guys are the coolest.

Mr. Starr, and Mr.Jackson, just seem to be the coolest kind of people you could hope to come in contact with.

Seen them 4x and every time was friggin Awesome!

Charlie is so nice, and his playing and voice is smooth as berry wine

What a great hang with Charlie and Paul. Thank you so much for sharing your gear and stories with us. Can't wait for the next shows at The Shed! Hope you are having a blast in Europe.

I like Charlie’s sense of humor.

Oh my god, this is amazing, let´s see that!

Holy moly! Yes yes yes!!

I just discovered Charlie and Blackberry Smoke. My first impression was they had a vibe that just struck me. It felt like I was listening to the Dead. Then I saw a video of Charlie wearing a jacket with Jerry’s “Tiger” guitar patch on it. Funny how this works universe works. I feel as if I was lead to Blackberry Smoke for a reason. True musicians are healing to listen to.

The Nicest Guys Ever !! Seen them in Detroit everytime they were Here !!🎸

Awesome band, awesome players, great rundown. Bohlinger you are the best at this! God bless and rock on 👍😎🎸

What a cool band. I really enjoy jamming along with their music. Bands where you don't have to skip through filler are very rare these days. Cool guys. Glad they exist.

PG, Please make a T-shirt that says "lllove it" (credits to John :D). I love seeing these episodes, and John is awesome as usual!!

Great job Rig Rundown!! Love Black Berry Smoke

Love this band. Great job as always, John.

Wow!! Beautiful sounds. Beautifull.

Lovely guitar collection. Very nice showed and explained. Thanks both!!

Is this just the best rig run down ! Nothing better than two guitar nerds geeking out over gear ! That and they both have great personalities. Idk I think is like the 3-4th rig rundown I’ve seen of theirs and they never disappoint !

I could watch this all day. Love Charlie's gear. Love your video concept. When we're not playing them, we're thinking about them aren't we?

Fantastic work! What a great bunch of guys- and some killer gear- bravo!

Great dudes and even better music they got! Thanks for the vid guys!

Thank you for showing the amp sounds. Love when rundowns give demos of the rigs.

It's nice to see that we are all gear nuts, from the smallest bedroom player all he way up to the big stars :) We all love to talk about our gear :)

5 Stars! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

I got an autographed Charlie pouch for my birthday! They are untouchable live!

I'm so glad to finally get a close look at that black Esquire. 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!

Absolutely Love this guys !! Thank you .

Man… you’ve got to love Mr. Charlie Star. 🎸👍

Great video, thanks! I just saw the guys play a couple of days ago, they are getting better every year. Cheers✌️

Yes. Good one. Charlie is my favorite modern guitar player. So much vibe. Reminds me of Keef at times but he seems well versed and creative in any style. And cool he found that 335 in Louisville thats where I am

You are correct Sir! Every board should have a Tube Screamer. Awesome gear and review.

Dayum! That was satisfying. Thanks for this one!

Love it. Charlie and the guys are the greatest...I bought a Les Paul Jr because of him!

Was fortunate to get to go to night 2 at the Ryman. FANTASTIC SHOW! Also got tix to night 3 at the Shed in May and can’t wait. Blackberry Smoke is the absolute best band goin right now. Bar none. Thanks for this rundown PG and JB! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

Vamos Blackberry Smoke! 🙌🙌🙌

Awesome. Love these guys.

OH YEAHHHHH!!!!!

This man has such great taste, I’ve always been impressed by his tone.

It’s funny…I came to this video for background on Charlie’s #1. Was watching a Satellites video from 1985 and I was thinking boy that LP Rick Richards is playing sure looks a lot like Charlie Starr’s black LP. And sure enough it is the same guitar. Amazing. I love that kind of guitar history.

Greatest of guys!

Awesome Rig Rundown! Thank you! But, the guitar shown in the minute 10:48 (ES-345 gold hardware and bigsby) is a different guitar to the one Charlie is showing.

Thanks!

So cool that we had that Esquire at Rockin Robiin Gutars and I found it a good home with my pal .Delivered to him in 2016

These are the best video's on the tube.

Love Blackberry Smoke!
