Live from the Woodshed - Insane! Steve morse listed me his "best guitarist of 2023" in guitar world

Not surprised! 💪🏿🎸

Well deserved Andy! Congratulations!!

Hell yeah!

Not at all surprised! You're a top-shelf player Andy.

Wow that’s fantastic. Congrats.

Congratulations.

Mine too, bud. Junktown was one of my finds of the year, and I need some more!

Steve has excellent taste.🍻

The opening song in this video, to me , sounds a LOT like early Dregs. It doesn't surprise me that Steve would appreciate your style and playing.... congratulations on the honor. It's well deserved!!!

smokin bro

Well deserved. \m/

Sounds pretty sane to me.

And rightly so in my view should be in the top 10 , Andy your an incredible player I’d listen and watch you play all day

Dude, when I watch you play I just want to give up and go lay down and cry! Amazing! Morse is totally correct!

Curious if 100 watts is an irreplaceable part of the equation or if you could do it with an SL67, badger or even Corso wattages?

Well done for your contribution and recognition to Music..

That Wood not surprise me. See what I did there? Making K-town proud!

Not surprised Steve Morse gave you that accolade. Your phrasing is musical and has personality, you keep internal rhythm and time so well and are able to have swing and swagger in time.

That’s what it’s all about, playing in time nuanced around it so it doesn’t sound robotic with a great sense of melody and harmony.

Obviously your tbe new top gun , be careful tho cause Erik stekel is right on your heels, lol. Congratulations

Having watched all your videos on TrueFire, you may not consider yourself a teacher, but you are an incredible communicator. I've had the TrueFire membership for several years and watched multiple incredible guitar players not be able to give insight into how they do what they do "Here play this fast lick". You make the concepts accessible to even me. Congrats on the recognitions as you are an incredible player. There is no shame in being great at two things.

Well deserved Andy! Congratulations! You are one of the best!

Congrats for sure. But I figured out Andy's secret. It's the color of that guitar. That must be it, yeah.

YEA! when i was a kid in my late teens early 20s, steve would come to denver and always do a free clinic before the show, and i got to stand within a couple feet and watch him play, and thn get to ask him stupid questions and he never made you feel dumb. so humble and appreciative that people came out to support him. He wa the best guitar hero we could have. always a stand up guy and vey inspirational and encouraging, What an honor to be mentioned by him.

Congratulations

Congrats Andy!

You are the best Andy!!!!!!

What pick-ups are in the tele?.fucking crazy riffs dude !!!

Wow Congratulations Dude :-) You are a sick player Man, so much insight.

Awesome ... love seeing that you're actually human and make mistakes too.... You're playing is very inspiring .. thanks for sharing

Watching Andy play is the mfn BEST.

Yeah, nothing insane in my book, you do not give yourself enough credit and don't really recognize how insane of player you are, it's both inspiring and annoying how sick you are on stringed instruments :D

Awesome guy who is the best recognizes other awesome guy who is the best. As it should be!

Well deserved

To my eyes the best thing about you is that you are natural on what you do..the joy of playing yells.

Congrats!! You earned it! I could never get Stressfest down. Then I saw 13 year old Chelsea Constable breeze through it with Steve… 😅

Where was Steve 5yr ago? I think he's little late to the plate

I would give my right nut to be in a room with you and Ben watching you two play guitar.

Awesome!!

Definitely put you up with the best in world for sure..unbelievable playing.

Definitely we’ll deserved, Andy! You are an absolutely amazing player and a great inspiration

Right on 🤘🏼. I love your playing, and you're a great teacher for someone at my level. I put you squarely in the Guthrie/Vai/Gilbert category. And that's some good company.

Steve Morse and myself have something in common, then!

Yeah dude not surprised. You are a monster player. Well deserved Andy❤️🎸

The way you play andy is identical to my teacher Chris rise who died today he called it bluegrass

Gino Vannelli! That opening jtown was 🔥, oddly enough it has some Dregsie/Morse influences Saw Dixie Dregs, Dregs & or Solo Morse 5-6 times👍

Man you are great teacher. Love how you go into the style and then play awesome licks that I can cop.

Merry Axemas!

It looks so effortless! Sounds amazing!

So True story I was at NAMM one year playing a Les Paul and this guy is watching me play. Now let's be clear I am not in the Ranks of you or Uncle Ben or Chris Buck and so on but just enjoying tinkering as this guy is watching me. So he has his arms crossed so I can't see his name badge but someone asked him a question he moved his arms it was Steve Morse, I've never set a guitar down so fast in my life and he says no keep playing. I didn't because star struck set in and the nerves kicked in big time.

Steve Morse is not wrong.
