[FlushieJohnson]

Thats awesome. Living proof that while a good guitar can make any player sound good, a good player with the right effects can make any guitar sound like an expensive, custom made instrument.

[fatfrankblack]

what fantastic playing!

[kinginsano]

Dennis Denim, that's your stage name haha.

:) Awesome playing

[babyblues3270]

its not the Guitar Dennis cause thats a Bullet but u make it sound like a vintage Strat. nice work Brother.

[flameage11]

sweet brah way to let it all out on your fingers!!! :D

[maxsmeraldi]

Big!!!

Great performance great suon and great blues heart.You're a magic guitarist

[BossHogster]

It might be a cheap guitar (I bet it's a decent amp) but you've drowned the real tone of it out in so much reverb and distortion. It's all too heavy for a blues purist like me. Nice playin' though.

[dennisdullea]

Thank You for you kind comments. Sometimes I feel the same way myself and like to just hear and play it straight and dry...with just the natural tube distortion....Anson Funderburgh is my favorite at Pure TONE. I'm not fit to carry his Strat for him! Thanks, Rev. Muddy

[BeatleUniversity]

This is SWEET!

[bl200sx]

yea, it really doesn't matter what make guitar it is, or where the guitar came from, the tone/sounds is all in hands and fingers of the player.

excellent playin DD!!! ; ) wish I could play like that!

[jjensen67]

Hey - I have the same guitar - mine's black, but... Mine must be broken, 'cuz it don't sound like that ;)

[elusiverick]

Smells like Jonny Winter Black & White & thats my favourite cologne.

[dmedicFF]

Quite awesome sir. Great example that to play the Blues, it has to come from deep inside. Much more than playing notes. All your emotion spills into your fingers.

[zvegasz]

what are you!? faggot poet? haiku writing motherfucker,

[aguitartuner]

Nice Oily Guitar The Same Thing Happens To Me!

[73FastPistoleros]

thanks for sharing with us !

[sophiegromit]

Nice feel... nice tone! Very enjoyable to watch!

[gullivera]

Added to favourites! Great stuff. Is that all music you've memorised or do you make it up as you go along? If so, thats very impressive. Nice sore fingers after that eh?

[rockerdude29]

Damn dude,that kind of tone a feel from a $100

Squier.You sir know just what the fuck your doing with a guitar.

[IIOverkill]

i don't mean to be annoying or anything but could you please tell me the repeating lick at :50-about :52... i've been trying to figure out how to that forever.

[marcus38447226]

hey mate, ill have a crack at it for you...its a slide from the E(7th fret) on the A string to the F#(9th fret) then hit the A on the 7th fret of the D string then slide back from the F# to the E on the A string and pull of to the D(5th fret) on the same string and end with the B(7th fret) on the 6th string...then repeat i hope that makes sense ahah its hard to explain in writing because the lick is so quick and contains alot of sublte movment good luck!

[IIOverkill]

thank you!

[dennisdullea]

It's a Hendrix lick that I lifted off "Bleeding Heart" also known as C# Blues off of his very first posthumous live album that was produced (Ilegally) by Alan Douglas. I still have the album. It's a 2 record set that I've had since it came out in 1972-1975 somewhere in there. I'm filming a DVD of close-ups of my fretting hand that will be all playing at regular speed and then slow motion with explanations of all these and some of the licks that Stevie and I learned together. Thanks, Dennis

[dennisdullea]

Thank You all for you very kind comments,I should have replied long ago. It IS the Super-Sonic head but run through the homemade wooden box you see with 2X12 Chinese reissue

G12M Celestions ordered off MF for $99.00 each and then made the Box from 1/2" pine. The back is closed. Its a Boss Compressor, Boss Blues Driver & a Boss DD-6 Digital Delay. Me and Stevie both got our licks from the same people at the same time, and then we sat around in the Cellar Club and swapped them back and forth.

[dennisdullea]

Yes it's true this a Squire "Bullet" From China and they used to sell them at GC for like $60.00 brand new (no case of course) I Took it straight ou of the box and these are first note that were ever played on it.

Dennis....Thank You! Dennis Dullea

[Zboots]

To my ears, you are seamlessly flowing between Clapton, Hendrix and Page with your own touch. Nice man, nice.

[kakuraku0820]

i hear alot of Albert King.

[Lyrero]

Hey men!

Ok, we understand it is only a chinese Squier Strat, but what about the amp and the effects?

I have an Squier Strat Affinity...I want to improve its sound, because the pack`s amp is a piece of junk. Any advice?

[nthridge13]

It looks like he uses a Fender Super-sonic in most of his videos.

[fishheads254]

new pickups!!!! try looking on ebay for a prewired mexican fender pickguard. they're like $80!!!!!!

[grozengyz]

Superb!Excellent!

[kaicho8888]

Lovely...excellent singing expression/phrasing!

[ikyuson]

beautiful!!!!love this

[scrumpymanjack]

I've got to the point in my guitar playing where I know enough to know how very very far away I am from ever being able to play these licks. Lovely work and, as always, great tone.

[scrumpymanjack]

But I'm definitely going to steal the 1.06-1.09 lick over the V.

[lungbo]

amazing i just got one of these squires of egay and after watching this i can't wait till it's gets here just wondering if my 2008 USA nitro neck would fit it

[stratkev]

great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!

[furkings]

I watch this everyday ...

[revriley]

you must have an awesome amp to get that tone. What kind is it? Sounds incredible.

[JartBansen]

awesome, these are the smoothest blues-licks here on You Tube!!

[maxsmeraldi]

[97warlock]

[robwiseman12345]

why the hell would i lie? am i here to impress anyone? ..... no. does it make me feel big to make people think i am great?...... no.

am i great?....... yes. haha ok the last bit was a little big headed but you get the point man.

[2kanchoo]

HAHAHA! I'll believe it when I see it.

[robwiseman12345]

i couldnt give a shit if you dont belive me tbh. your probably shit enough not to be able to play that. honestly..... it takes about an hour or two to learn somethign like that.

[ivistar]

Dennis, I've seen this vid about 2 dozen times now and it still gives me goosebumps when I hear you play. You are truly an inspiration for many of us out here trying to feel your pain.

Please make some more vids so I can feel even more like an amateur when I play.
