[keiwa11]

I haven´t learnt anything from this (that´s a pitty, he talks too fast.) but just staring at him is amazing!

[yolo1998]

Graham cracks me up :)

[NapalmHeart7]

Graham, I want to marry you. So much.

[x9x8x7x61]

He is a great guitarist, but I like his early work (with blur) more than his solo work.

[MrBenben4]

coolest geeky looking person evar

[parallelixa]

One of my fave guitarist!!

[kingshahine]

he is considered one of the best guitarists of 90's british pop. johnny greenwood and noel gallagher hold him in high esteem

[backstothewall]

its a fender telecaster, not sure what year.

[tc1991t9]

grrrr anyBODY know the name of the guitar hes usuing??!?!?

[manutdfan079]

actually, the guitar hes using is a '72 Telecaster thinline, nice guitar used by Jonny Buckland as well

[tc1991t9]

thanks man!

[milkncookiesluv]

[newdecade]

True lunatic, great guitarist

[bennyboy0908765]

I'd love to have Graham Coxon's fashion sense

[X4mat]

[mistercrane]

MASTER!!!!

[ROLLINSTONE07]

I LOVVVVVVE this guy! He's such a ledge!

[TimesSquareGirl]

I meant to say 'Love' xD

[TimesSquareGirl]

I seriously love this guy! I've always had a thing for guitarists... But who wouldn't loe him?! he's cute, funny, quirky, talented, his glasses are schminted :) he makes the best songs known to man, except for blur but he's part of blur. You really cannot fault this guy. Too bad he's old enough to be my dad :S *blushes and hides behind a shelf xD*

[cassawong]

His accent seems totally different to how it used to be...

[TimesSquareGirl]

It does! it used to be so cute and aww-ish (ino thats not a word but it was too cute for words) now its all different :(

[Noirie93]

Just saw him tear it up in hyde park. Blown away but his skills

[lancsno1]

a really underrated guitarist hes fuckin amazing, his tone is one of best sounds ever

[HawaiianTigerlily]

I love this man. Why? He is talented, he is real, and there's no angle - he is just so true. He's my favorite member of (R.I.P.) Blur -- altho' of course they are reuniting in a few days for some shows. But that's way far away from where I am. I could just sit and listen to him play guitar endlessly with a dreamy smile on my face.He is just an epic musician, isn't he?

[Blurillaz]

What pedal is that? Doesn't seem to be any on his board... House equipment?

[GenericReb420]

He reminds me of my friend Tapo.

[iwish4it]

i luv how he said "that choogie choogie sound"

lmao so cuuute xD

[sonofabicho]

mind the gap...

[CrystalArks]

Is that a fender 72 thinline telecaster?

[joemunkey30]

think so

[Apetite4Destruction]

Such a nice accent ^-^

[joshsanchez21]

I wish I naturally had an English accent. sigh

[Apetite4Destruction]

Hehe, yeah ^-^

"Naturally" ? =S What do you mean?

[joshsanchez21]

In the sense that 'I wish I was raised around the accent.; lol

[Apetite4Destruction]

Ohh, I see. xD

[AndyLibertine]

OMG guitar lessons from him, what's next? guitar lessons from Thurston Moore.. then I think I could die happy XD

[superiourcowies]

i dont think its actualy that hard to play guitar like thurston moore.

[oldestmanonmars]

Totally gonna check this out.

If I can be five percent as good as Graham I'll be amazing. :D

[TheSecretMachines]

Yes yes YES!!!! A guitar lesson from one of my guitar heroes!

[blrgrl]

Grahamtastic.

[pedrowasabi]

I admire him so fucking much! I mean, the arrangements he made in Blur were unbelievable!

[clashgurl07]

Graham Coxon!!! one great lad!!! love him!

[czeal]

graham coxon; you are a fuckin hero.

[Megorillazfanyay]

wow this is so cool! i cant understand anything he says at the end lol

[MrBusker]

why does he play the barre chords, like an F chord??

is ther ne advantage in this??

just wondering cos ive seen a few ppl do it

[Bebuchadnezzar]

As he says, it provides a slightly damped-down sound as opposed to what the full barre would give you, because you're muting the low E string and usually the high E as well. That's about it as far as the advantage of it goes.

[Andre2010]

he cant get more elvis costello than this.

[pollyethylene]

Graham Coxon, please come to Ontario and teach me how to play guitar properly. I'll bake you cookies.

[mynameismark25]

he doesnt even play guitar properly, but you look far cooler if u play like him. buy his dvd live at zodiac and the cameras are always on him so you can pretty much figure it out.

[velouria91]

hah thats a laugh. you might be the only person i've heard say graham coxon can't play properly..

johnny marr thinks otherwise, stephen street, the rest of the world......

rest assured he's one of the best guitarist around :]

[mynameismark25]
