What Kris Barocsi really thinks about Harley Benton, Thomann, music theory, John Petrucci, and more!

Подробнее о видео

You guys asked for it, so here’s my interview with the one and only Mr. Kris Barocsi! Most of you will know Kris as one of the faces of the Thomann YouTube channel, but he also has his own extremely successful channel. He’s a top guitarist, a brilliant tech and a fountain of knowledge when it comes to all things guitar gear. Oh, and he just so happens to be one of the nicest guys I know in the business too.

Here we talk about everything from Kris’s first guitar onwards. We discuss his life as a musician and presenter, his favorite gear, his thoughts on music theory, John Petrucci borrowing his Mesa Boogie settings, the NAMM Show, boutique pedals like the Analogman King Of Tone, and the best vintage guitars he’s ever played (and yes, he’s played a 59 Les Paul).

Oh, and perhaps most excitingly, we get to hear Kris’s true thoughts on the Harley Benton brand!
