hey Emma! hows everything goin? listen, i was wondering: ive been a major fan of john5 for a very long time but ive never had the chance to see him perform...maybe u can get him to perform somewhere in louisville?
he was not better off in MM. MM was boring. He didn't shred and he couldn't do his own thing. he's still making the cash look at his guitar collection! Holy shit he makes me sound like shit on the guitar.

i love this video but i think that is better the one of the DVD...... but i'm here to ask which day does the J5 pedal will be able in the web page??? 'cos it says that in april will be able
I seen john 5 in a guitar world issue, and I was like "look at that fag, I bet his chops are shit, he played for Manson." But wow, I haven't stopped listing to him since... 2 days ago XD hes just so talented. I like the country runs, there cheesy but cool. And his use of the b5 (music term) is great.
also john 5s solos live arent really that good. he just cant improvise (from what ive seen) all he does is play stuff from his albums. this isnt a hate comment to john, its just a fact
He does improvise if you listen more closely. For example on Zombie Live he has a solo that whilst including bits from his own albums also includes inprov.
That is a fact.
The idea for this video was that it is to promote his music from his albums therefore that is why he is playing songs from his album.
I am sorry. my comments came out wrong. I am a HUGE fan of john 5. i have all 3 of his albums and have seen him live w/ zombie twice.
The kind of improvising im talking about for live solos is stuff like Zakk Wyldes. John 5 is a great guitarist and i look forward to getting his next album (requiem) and i am not bashing him in any way. i just made an observation from both his solos live. it would just be nice to maybe see some new stuff in his solos.
i understand what ur sayin, he uses the same kinda runs, right? if so, thats pretty much what he does on all his albums lol. if u look at alot of great guitar players their stuff is so different, yet so closely related. i guess its a signature thing. but i need this dudes new album or i might implode from being retarded.
He's actually using the coffin case on tour? I hate that thing. I tried it out (on a J5 telecaster actually) and it sounded awful. Well I guess it sounds good for him so that's all that really matters. Thanks for the info.
hahaha i love how into it he gets, showing all smiles during it......the anthem with the teeth playing was icing on the cake. awesome display of skill from your friendly neighborhood john5
Not to ruin your image of John 5, since he's my favorite guitarist, but he's not playing with his teeth (as I used to think guitarists could do before I started playing), he's just hammering and pulling off on the strings which is just tapping the string with a finger on the desired fret and as long as your guitar has good pick-ups (which I'm sure his does) it can sound almost identical to actually plucking the string.
In my own mind, ever since about 2 months ago when I first got into John 5, right then and there I thought his style is the best. Don't get me wrong, other people play the guitar tooooo great but John does everything, blues, country, rock, punk, whatever it is, he will be the best in my eye.
Now I will agree with you he has shown so much more potential outside of Manson, and I love his work with Zombie. But Manson is good, and when 5 was in the band they were great! My fav manson album is the one 5 wrote alot of songs on, but either way his solo stuff kills, so rock on 5!
Hey John became known from Marilyn Manson and I LOVE BOTH OF THEM! and John is an amazing guitarist...I just never truly understood why he kept the "5" when he left Manson
The name John 5 was bestowed on John by Manson and it's what the fans know him as best - it's a name that he has worked hard to be known under and as a marketing strategy it's best to put stuff out on what people know you as.
Plus John loves the name and the way the fans have grown to like him through it.

He's right now using a Coffin Case Blood Drive Pedal for solo sounds. I'm not really sure if he uses it all the time..
Marshall Mode Four amp
Boss Chorus
On his signature Tele's he's got a standard fender humbucker i gues but the neck pickup he got a Twisted Tele..
Thats all I know I've heard he's using some kind of synt. pedal by EHX on his latest album :P
