  • "some girls" has a phenomenal guitar line. He's so amazing!!!!!

  • Don't touch that guitar! we don't play that one!

  • I have just realised how beautiful the guitar is in Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others. Johnny, you babe!

  • Yarr, Johnny Marr! Thank ye!

    "it's really quite simple" yeah :) Maybe to you mate, but to the rest o' us, 'tis magic.

  • Lovely guy, he just replied to me on facebook. Also happens to be the greatest guitar player ever too.

  • @TheNicholas0202 He's the best!

  • If it wasn't for this man I wouldn't be playing the guitar. Thankyou Johnny Marr

  • "...is quite simple"....la madre que lo parió!!! es el puto amo.

  • I could listen to Johnny Marr talking about guitars and sound for ever....The Jaguar is nice ( they've just brought out a signature Johnny Marr one) but for me the ultimate is when he's got the Ric 330 jetglo in his hands!! ( I know he wouldn't thank me for limiting him to that but that's my preference )

  • What pickups?

  • Fender Jaquar?

  • Before this I always thought that jags have shitty sound.

    Before this I always seenthem in wrong hands.

  • like noel gallagher said: "the mans a fuckin' wizard"

  • monstermaster

  • He's like a living ad. Everything in his hands turns into a very cool object, from Jaguars, to Rickenbackers, from Fender amps to Telecasters.

    I'd like to buy his entire equipment

  • Mr marr creates the best riff ever, and morrisey rights . "as anthony said to cleopatra as he opened a crate of ale "

    CLASSIC

  • hahaha holy shit i have that EXACT same t shirt, you have no idea how cool i feel right now

  • Johnny's a genius.

  • @420megadeth Simple? I d'know. He chooses unusual voicings and has great articulation at a sustained momentum. Go practice "Girl Afraid" (or even this song) for a while and you'll see that speed is a relative thing. I can pull of sweeps and fast alternate picked runs quite well, but Marr's abilities have always vexed me. I can play melodic lines or big chords on my own whereas he can play an entire song on my own. I wish I could play in that style and just fill the room with one clean guitar.

  • "jag ooo arrs"

  • Fender Jag-you-err

  • so, when i buy this guitar, i can play like this?

  • @misterfunkeeh yaeh absolutely !!! well i hope too for me :)

    have enjoy with this guitar !!! viva fender jagaur and viva johnny marr !!!

  • this man is a wizard :P

  • has anybody got a perfect tab for the way he plays Some Girls.. here?

  • john,I love you

  • I could listen to him play guitar all day long.

  • johnny johnyy ... the manchester finest!!

  • THE FENDER JAGUAR WOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWW WITH THE BEST EVER GUITAR'S PLAYER JOHNNY STAY ALIVE A MILLION YEAR

    enough said

  • "Johnny’s Signature Fender comes out in January 2012" that was on Marr's website, thought someone might find this interesting.

  • Johnny Marr - Lord Protector of all things Guitar.  (If I was the King I would give him that title).

  • fender jaquar?

  • @alnjgove8uifjbkelbfg yep sure is

  • Can someone PLEASE make a tab for how he plays it here?! I'v looked everywhere for a version where he has added the bass notes in this version but can't find one anywhere!

  • @GreenSLi7 so you know that the bass notes have been added but still need a new tab? why not use an old one and add the fuckin bass notes yourself?

  • The Smiths are the only band I love without particularly liking the lead singer. It's mainly because of JOHNNY MARR!

  • I need this guitar -3

  • need that guitar!!

  • Real shame that Morrisey moaned over the top of his stuff

  • @moomoo1337 My thought exactly.  Check out my comment.

  • @moomoo1337 @tompaulcampbell ...admittedly...Morrissey can be hard to stomach...but do you think we would be able to admire all of these wonderful riffs without Morrissey? I mean, look at Johnny's later work...some really good riffs here and there...but with the Smiths, every song had a killer guitar line. I dunno...

  • @moomoo1337 egghhh...the typical, lazy comment about Morrissey. Some one who is truly miserable could never write any of the words that he did...and most importantly...Johnny didn't think he was miserable...and that's all that matters...not the opinions of people who don't know the first thing about him. Morrissey and Marr bought the best out of each other...neither would be where they are now without the other.

  • @BornReady16388 So in your eyes i can have no opinion of anyone I don't know? So I cannot have any opinion of Hitler because I don't know him? I am not allowed an opinion of Anders Behring Breivik because I don't know him?

    I like Johnny Marr, I don't like Morrissey, he depresses me. Live with it.

    BTW Have a look at the video title, I came here for Marr.

  • @moomoo1337 I think the difference is you can't have an opinion on someone's personal traits: you can't comment on how miserable Morrissey (truly) is (you can of course comment on his public persona), because you don't know him. And no, you can't comment on Hitler: you can't comment on whether he was happy, or depressed, or had a great sense of humour. You can of course comment on his public nature - he was very charismatic and fiery - and his public actions - he was bigoted and murderous.

  • @moomoo1337 No, no, no. what I was saying was that people shouldn't comment on someone's personality or any aspect of their personal lives as you don't KNOW. Their music, fine. But more to the point, I was making a valid point that without either one of them...the Smiths would never have happened and therefore, this video wouldn't even exist because Johnny's work may never have been heard. Simple.

    Anyway, we all love Johnny's work; let's just leave it at that.

  • Just beautiful *faints* xxxxxxx

  • 1:11 - 1:35

    I almost crying

  • such a modest man considering all he's achieved! a true music legend!

  • thanks for sharing this darcythorton!

  • Fantastic melody, SGABTO, I love it. And the effect is uses on HSIN is brilliant. I could watch Johnny Marr play guitar all day!

  • 1:11 - 1:35 is the riff from Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others. Johnny is one of a kind.

  • That guitar is old, you can see some of the paint chipped off, but at least it still works. 

  • love his sound. a true legend.

  • fucking legend

  • The fact that a guitarist at his level takes any time to explain guitars, amps and music the way Johnny Marr does speaks volumes about his character. Seems a very humble man despite enormous success & heaps of accolades. Thanks Johnny.

  • cheers for the upload! it's mint, this

  • love his guitar playing !

  • When he really started with the some girls are bigger than other as it actually was... fkn amazing. 

  • best guitarist ever

  • Oh my god that was insane.....

  • Johnny Marr is God

  • God, you're awesome.
