@meself349 Год назад

Actually I don't think that's correct. He tries to simplify things for people who are trying to learn the guitar. That's not really "raising the bar". Why would he do that? He's trying to make the instrument accessible for everybody.

@51skibum2 Год назад

This was a great lesson. Interesting how much easier it is to play raised barre rather than standard barre. Especially good for seniors like me with lost flexibility.

@97HawksFly Год назад

This man is one of the unsung heroes of music. I've heard so many famous musicians saying they learn how to play guitar from his videos. I started watching him 13 years ago and now I'm making a living as a professional producer and play a lot of guitar in my tracks. thank you Justin!

@kevincrilly4292 Год назад

Great Lesson..I also discovered this chord shape after listening to Alex Lifeson who uses it to brilliant effect in many Rush songs & have often heard it referred to as the Alex Lifeson chord...he is an absolute master of this shape, sometimes strumming it as full chords & sometimes as arpeggiating chords which sounds fantastic...to name a few song examples. First track on Hemispheres Cygnus X-1Book Two Xanadu...Middle Section The Spirit of Radio..Arpeggiated Verse Sections Far Cry...after the initial riff you hear the F Sharp position strum Also as Passing note a similar technique is also used on the Acoustic Guitar intro to Pinball Wizard by The Who where the open top E string is always left open as the underlying chords change.....Also sounds Great..

@ronlight7013 Год назад

This is one of those rare lessons that hits me exactly where I live. Most lessons I find either too elementary or overly challenging, but this one is just right!

@leascaart Год назад

@OTR366 Год назад

This is crazy timing for you to put this out as a lesson. I've been practicing a song with C, G, Am, F chord progression and accidentally did the "lifted" barre chord on the F and immediately noticed a huge difference. Technically wrong but sounds great. I simply got a bit sloppy moving from Am to F and didn't fret strings 1 and 2. I'll have to try the C and G next practice session to see how that sounds in the song. Thanks Justin!!

@KiwiMC99 Год назад

@ragmon331 Год назад

@BitsOfEternity Год назад

Makes me want to play that base note on the minor with my thumb. Cheers!

@seanbaines Год назад

Coldplay's song Yellow kind of does this, with the high E string tuned down a half tone, and those two top strings ringing out throughout. The chord shapes do change as we move through the progression, but we're using those two open high strings to kind of sonically tie it all together. Great sound. I stumbled across this "lifted barre" phenomenon myself awhile back while @rsing around on my own, (a bit of time in practice to just experiment and try things is great, IMO!). In fact, I think I was playing with the Yellow idea a bit, and just moving the shapes. I had no idea what to call it, though, or what was going on or how to use it. This video is quite helpful in all 3 ways. Thanks Justin. Very good video.

@georgestevens1502 Год назад

Recently I've been using the open E shape sliding it up and down in different positions from high up the fret board and ending by dropping down to the open E while strumming all the strings all the time. The open E at the end of the progression sounds so big and fat that way. Don't even need to put the index on the low E string.

@Pbnj1379 Год назад

No Excuses- Alice In Chains is Ab to Bb with the open 1st and 2nd strings (guitar is tuned down to Eb standard). This is a beautiful technique!!

@discjammer Год назад

Rooster is also lovely. F# and A with open E string.

@davebowman5392 Год назад

Who knows where the time goes by Fairport Convention uses many of these, in fact Justin was playing the song without even knowing it, a beautiful song to practice these chords. Also Northern Lights by Rennaisance.

@tomkennedy6069 Год назад

This reminds me of the intro to Nice Dream by Radiohead - there's a descending run of open barre chords from 8th fret to 5th fret, so definitely shows that the 6th fret can work as a passing chord!

@dunning125 Год назад

Thanks, straight away thought this reminded me of something wouldn't have made the connection without your comment

@don911donny9 Год назад

Sit Down (next to me) uses an E (open), E (open), A, B progression. Strum DUD with the first two strokes on the treble strings and the 3rd stroke on the base strings

@BluesLearner_70 Год назад

Those lifted bar chords make almost any guitar sound great

@ChintanCG Год назад

didnt know what the chords were called but I stumbled across them accidentally and have used them a lot. I like to play the bass note with thumb on these

@keithangstadt4950 Год назад

A similar concept that is useful is using the 3 note power chord shape and allowing the other strings to ring. Works especially well on A string root power chords. “Outside” from Aaron Lewis uses this trick when played acoustically.

@seanbaines Год назад

Yes. The only difference is you don't have the 3rd in there. That's what that finger on the 3rd string gives you, a 3rd an octave up. A 10th, really. A further wrinkle is to play the moveable barre chord shape, mute the two thin strings, and also mute the octave on the 4th string. Either use you pinky finger to mute, or leave it off and lean the 3rd finger back a bit. That gives you a spread triad sound, with the 1-5 power chord style, and the 3rd played on the 3rd string as a 10th. Great sound, either strummed or individually picked.

@billjeffers2273 Год назад

Holy Soundgarden my man!! ❤️

@williamrobinson7435 Год назад

These are great! I like the C shape ones, and anything triadic on lower strings with upper pedal notes ringing out can yield a groovy crop of 'let ring modal nicenesses', the key is to get stuck in and experiment! 🎶👍❤️

@johnmacmillan627 Год назад

Still the master!

@adeppisch Год назад

Thanks Justin for these great-sounding an relatively easy chord shapes. I just experimented, and found that rather than use the index finger for the root note(s) on the E-string, the thumb could be used This would also make transitioning from the major chord to minor chord easier. The middle finger would play the "major third" of the chord, and then the index finger would play the next fret down from it to play the "minor third" note. Perhaps on a wider fretboard and/or with smaller-handed player, this might not be as comfortable and/or possible etc. Thanks for the great ideas, and as usual the great videos. I've been a fan for number of years - keep up the great work!

@jpr4212 Год назад

Great idea. I'm going to try it right now!

@harveybc Год назад

I've heard the F played without the full bar called a flamingo F. It does give it a bit of a Spanish sound. I do something similar with the Bmin when playing Samba Pa Ti. It is fun playing around and see what sounds good and I've found somethings that sound horrible in one context sound great in another. The Ab+6 and Ebmaj9 is another. (At least to my ears but it is subjective.)

@heinbldski Год назад

THIS is the most important tip for every guitar player !

@ShiningHourPop Год назад

Tis is a great way for playing chords. I am from the Netherlands and we have an artist called Anouk, who has a song called "Sacrifice" . This is played using those chords. Maybe you can check it out once

I’m lazy and a barre-less Am inspired a song, then G, F, and CMaj7/G, whilst singing around the drone on the B and E strings. But I didn’t think to make any use of the “redundant” barre finger. Doh, but also Yay!

Sir at 7:10 you accidentally played chords of a very famous indian song called Choo Lo by the Local Train . You have been a great inspiration and teacher for me .

One song I played in a band had a passing C-D change, I slid the open C shape up two frets leaving the G and E open. Apparently that’s an Em9/D! ;-)

@tuckermcelroy7055 Год назад

I believe 'Nice Dream' by Radiohead utilises a similar idea 👍

@Yu2beFool Год назад

As an extension you could try the B7 chord. If you mute the sixth string, you can use it almost all over the place. Just the 3rd and 10th sound weird to me. Not to say that these are progressions that can be used in a lot of songs.
