Albert King style

[Renhjarta]

sounds really good ! what amp did you use?

[55carr55]

bleedin the blues. oh yea

very nice

[Fatshead]

Isn't it fun to play this stuff?! You sound exhausted at the end but playing Albert will do that to you.

[jipes]

Love It Borny that's indeed a tasty playing !

[MyBluesGuitar]

Not many around who can pull this off.

[XCTRACK1600]

are you in standard tuning?

[Janders52]

spot on albert, the best ive heard on youtube. great job man

[rockerdude29]

Im almost sure my fingers would slice open if i played with 12s or 13s like stevie.

[garcivaldi]

yeaaa is grat men!

[jassrv]

all i can say is THAT WAS KICK ASS!!! 5*

[taariqtaariq]

get some 11 to 52 strings .

[SIKIANDRAS]

great man! Albert forever

[mattiv1]

is there a blood on your guitar?:)

[guitarskater11]

i thought the sticker under the pickups said horny lol

[hylas99]

Smokin". Keep up the awesome playing. You have a great feel.

[Polde1243]

blues power ha

[J1K1R1]

Really enjoyed it. Cool guitar. Jacob

[peanutbarnes]

I'll tell ya what............."bleedin for tha blues"! this is the best stuff in the world! i have been listenin to borny for a long time and this is "down in the bottom blues. I love it man.....keep this up. LAWD HAMERCY!

[BOTFA111]

hello that was awesome. how long have you been playing guitar?

[BordiniBlues85]

awesome

[loungeking1]

Leave that blood on your pickguard! Gotta bleed for the blues my friend. :o)

Great picking!

[Antarblue]

Awright Horny Borny you really go for it!

[yourshorts]

well where is your other hand dude

[voodoo4u1975]

nice job!

[cedarblues]

Great AK stuff man! I know my fingers bled many times playing some of those bends but on the other hand... it helps to bend downwards like the man himself did. Great job!

[jib36]

whoa! cool got them crazy bends licked, like the vocals too! ha ha

[trisoctehedron]

Man, I love to hear this. "Drowning on Dry Land" was one of the first songs that kicked me into loving the blues 40 years ago.

What else in the world expresses feeling like this music?

[racorbin]

I'd give ya top rating just for the blood man. But, I gave ya a Top + 10 cause that's awesome playing. There's something about finger picking that you can't get with a pick not only in tone, but, as a player, connecting with the instrument..

[lionelritenou]

idiot

[Prometheus985]

2 quick questions...you weren't playing the albert box in its normal position with root on second string, right? where exactly were you playing it?

and whats that song?

[Bornysblues]

I'm bending the H-string. The song is called "drowning on dry land"

[Prometheus985]

I'm assuming H was a typo and you meant G, right???

[Bornysblues]

hmm, maybe it's called the B-string in America. The one next to the thin E-string.

[hugleberthumperdink]

@Bornysblues H usually means B flat, that is in other European countries.

[Bluefinger]

@hugleberthumperdink

actually European H is American B and European B is American Bb ... crazy, isn't it?

[N10BASS]

@hugleberthumperdink not...h is b and b is b flat in europe...as simple as that

[hugleberthumperdink]

@N10BASS always thought it was other way round - 50/50 chance. Cheers for the heads up

[Perezco]

@Bornysblues H and B are the same thing, yes.

[curlybluesman]

dude i really enjoyed that

really got them albert bends down

[TsuruCrane]

good stuff, what pedals do you use to get that albert sound?

[Bornysblues]

Thanks, I didn't use any pedals on this video.

[dianasatyr]

That was TRULY FINE.

[dogredrum66]

you really remind me of Mike Bloomfield. by the way what song is that?

[OsvaldoPaese]

Yeah, i was thinking the same thing. Very cool. Great attack on the strings.

[docblakey]

Keep up the good work kid. Albert is probably smiling. Take it from someone who used to sit on his lap as a kid.

[guitarskater11]

sounds so wrong

[Spiritree41]

Make that guitar talk!

[MrCaribbean]

bornysblues,you are really doin the albert king man,you play very good!!,i love the tone of that strat,the maple top is sweet sounding man ;).I'll check out your other works.Keep it up,we could jam good together for sure.I've got a 1994 40th anniversary start,Gonna put some seymour antiquityII "surf" for strat pickups.Gonna add you,already rated it 5plus man.BLUES POWER

[jstuka1234]

bloodyblues hehee

[jackb1211]

thats awesome. the bloody fingers really added to the experience. lol. nice job

[Barnekkid]

Little bit of a honkin' p90 sound there.

[dpinsker]

Sounds just like texas :P.

Im thinkin of gettin 1 of those JV strats, wat do u think of it?

[Bornysblues]

Love it. Rich and spicy texan tone:)

[claptonhendrix1]

I do like the tone from this strat. What pickups does it have?? I've heard it comes with Tex. Specials. I have the SRV sig. strat and thoes specials have an amazing tone... these sound simaller but I think almost have a little brighter sound.

[StevieRay58]

They're Tex-Mex pickups.

[riod4me]

I really like your playin' son... I've listened to your Albert Collins stuff - you've got him NAILED too... I like your voice too... ha-ha Stay with it - you're already big-time on your way!

[rorypappa]

great

[bigsmitty812]

albert would be proud!

[leftystrat62]

all right,playing until your fingers bleed,that's what we want to see

[riod4me]

Yeah my boy... You've got Albert's shit NAILED! Great ear & feel for the Late, Great Blues MASTER! You need to work on that voice though... LOL

[whackyshackyidiot]

man awesome job

stratdude84 is right tune down to c (step n half) and this way you can do it much better than in normal tunnig. 5 stars man!!!!!!!!!

[zodiacie]

great stuff!! keep it up boss

what albert king song is that in the background

[stratdude84]

do u tune down a step??,,good stuff man,,keep it up!!by the way ,i heard albert tuned down 4 steps to c to get those monster bends...with heavy gauge strings,,also albert and stevie had huge hands..keep playin!!!!!!!!

[Bornysblues]

Thanks stratdude, I don´t think I tuned down recording this.

[r8guitar]

gooooodddddd master

[claptonhendrix1]

Sweet. I love the blues and this has a great feel to it. What gage strings are you using?

[Bornysblues]

Thanks man, 11's

[TexasTornado187]

You are doing a Great Job!!! You have a good

feel and great timing you should be proud, because very few young men have the raw since of feel and timing to pull this off,and you're

doing just great!!!! most youngsters try to

infuse rock fusion runs into Alberts style.

Instead it is raw pure feel and emotion. Not

gymnastics and hyper infused runs.

[Bornysblues]

Many thanks!

[TexasTornado187]

You are welcome....I meant raw sense of feel.

Keep on pluckin' Albert Jr. You are talented,

I mean It!!!!!! oh, by the way checkout

Funk Guitar Solos "TexasTornado187" me some feedback! Peace to you my young dogg.

[angeoni]

The same thing happened to me

[codehendrix]

play a hendrix number...

[mojoelem]

Sounds great although more like SRV than Albert King. In order to sound like Albert you have to have 498T/500T minihumbuckers. Only the Les Paul Classic & Flying "V" have them installed.

[TexasTornado187]

Who in the Hell, do you think SRV SOUNDED LIKE!!!!!! Duh!!!!! Although SRV was a brilliant Guitarist he'd admmitted to copying

his licks/style from his mentor Albert King.

This young man is doin' a Damned GOOOOD JOB

for his age. he sounds real seasoned, just wait till he reaches his peak.

[saart31]

this is amazing dude. totally inspiring

[Perezco]

Dude, I'm just loving it. The feel is mind-bending. Albert would be honoured without a doubt.

[JohnnyLori]

Yes i can see your bleeding finger,its captured the whole 2:20 min.its looks like your demolishing your vaughan fretboard!..take care blues brother

[Davey1977]

Great!

[apissano]

yeah man!

[vvvq9]

HA-thats some committed playin ther borny!ENJOYED it,very inspiring,also.Love the feel you put into it all.

[frozensheep]

man with the bends you pulled off using 11s, i'm suprised the strings haven't cut through your bones yet.

good job

[mikep95133]

The Borny Bleeding Finder Blues. That sure sounds like a an album title to me!

[motokev]

luv it..........keep jammin

[stratdrache]

playing with an injured hand...

hope you don't play with a broken heart...

Great playing! :o)

[djrslc333]

what gauge strings do you use...I cant pull that off w/ anything over .10's....Sounds Awesome !!

[Bornysblues]

Hey! I use 11's.

[striker327]

Wow! you cant beat that

[Justaguyinnc]

Now thats good blues...  with some blood, sweat and cheers!

[klasek]

Borny is willing to sacrifice a piece of himself to bring us some awesome blues!

[GVP]
