"not enough flaws in modern music" Bless you, son. It's sad that the ears of young people are being groomed to consume digital film flammery and pay the record makers for a beat drop , not the soul and feeling of someone who is in tune with their chosen instrument. Thanks for your effort. I've learned a lot. Greatly appreciated.
Agree - however, lets recall that so-called modern music is much less articulated than that of, say, the 60's, 70's, 80s,....There are much less ideas, and much more repetition. So making it "perfect" becomes easier....
They say, it is never too late to learn, but I don't think, I can ever learn anything like this. You have a gift from the higher powers, man. Thank you.
Adrian, you’re a real inspiration to a lot of players out there. You should be proud of the massive time and effort you’ve put forth to accomplish this. Yes, I realize how much fun it is, that’s why we play. Great video and would love to see some acoustic stuff as well. Thanks so much!
You're a hell of a guitar player and....you can actually explain what's going on without falling into endless boring theory what is important too but not on a sunday afternoon 🙂I'm now at 3/4 of your pace of the solo. I'ts suberb so I want to know how to play it! Great stuff !
I think you did a great job with Folsom prison blues, I like your style and I agree with leaving some flaws in there makes it sound much cooler, nice job Adrian!
No doubt - I own 15+ guitars (including LP, ES-355, Strat, more) and two of them are Tele's. I find I play the Telecasters about 75% of the time. Wide range of tone, ALWAYS stay in tune, lots of fun!
Adrian the smoke is just blowing off that fret board, totally excellent country riffin and a stonkin video to boot. Adrian love those tasty country motifs and your website is simply a Gold mine of tremendous material and tutorials Thanks a mil and great to see you gettin into the groove. And the weekend is always going to be a bit tastier if there's a video from Adrian
love your lesson, I've played blues for years and now i'm learning some country, its like a totally different language to me ... this has been very helpful, thanks for taking the time to make this video
Hey Adrain! I enjoy all your videos especially the post punk ones. I see a lot of people commenting on how you always manage to get a killer guitar tone whether it be country, punk, or whatever. Would you ever consider doing a video all about tone? A lot of beginners like myself never know where to start when it comes to pedals, amp settings etc... Thank you for all the vids!!! you rock !
Thank you - I don't like and I don't play Country style stuff, but this was so enlightening, so nicely broke down into digestible pieces, that I watched through the whole thing. I still don't country, but I enjoyed seeing the little things that make it "sound country" you broke it down to. Thanks again for the great lesson!
Glad you liked it. Yes, country isn't for everyone I know. My own tastes are definitely towards the more alternative end of the country music spectrum. But I've also used a lot of these kind of concepts in other styles of music too.
Great stuff!..the lick at 1:17..so simple..yet i never saw it in that position..that's the fascination of seeing how other guitarist view the neck and shapes..thanks!
Top notch stuff Adrian, saved to my favourites and regularly visited to expanded my riff library over this classic song. Smashing easy to follow tutorial
I had spent years using the pentatonic shapes for minor. I still remember the day I discovered being able to use the same shapes for major! I love in particular bending that 2 to a major 3rd and then plucking the root an octave above.
One day I'll be good enough to be able to hear those 'flaws'! Dead Kennedys one week. James Burton style solo the next. And all done and explained so well. Just great.
I'm an advanced player and playing critic. You played that to the T. Of course, you are more advanced than I am and know what you expect. Believe me, no one else thought you messed up. Great job.
❤I just love this dude I wish I could have personal lessons from him unfortunately I'm in South African great stuff always a pleasure to watch your vidios
That was kick ass! I'm not even much of a country fan, but just love this (and this style of) solo. I'm going to take a wack at it. Thanks, for all you lessons, Adrian!
Very very nice Adrian, I have played this tune in one capacity or another and never thought much outside the Luther P. box I love you creativity and use of hybrid picking style over that OG arrangement, Thank you for your spot on videos and help with improving mine and your audience musicianship and guitar playing. Mark
Perfect lesson as usual. I made my own simplified version I can work on, but incorporated 6th and some of your licks. Learned a lot and great fun to play. Thank you!
Lots of useful tips there Adrian and very much appreciated. You played a lick using the 'd' to 'd7' shape with syncopated rhythm which is super familiar to me as I play the same sort of thing with what is basically an 'a' shape but reaching up three frets for the 7th note if it were an 'a' chord from the 5th -'e'(I hope that made sense). Madness, but I hadn't thought to cross it over, many thanks. Advert rich today, many congratulations. 😎🎙🎸✅
There isn't a session player, or any player for that matter in Nashville, that can play better than, or as good as you, Adrian!! Not blowing smoke, just making an educated observation. Cheers, mate!! :)
I love your lessons. I started with Stackolee and I haven't looked back. Daddystovepipe isn't bad either, but you make a lot of videos that are fair game for beginners.
Thanks for this great lesson. I love the major pentatonic scale but I always add the flatted 3rd and then rename it my "Country Pentatonic" scale, even though it's no longer really pentatonic lol. I have to explore the CAGED system of soloing over chords a little more. Anyway, dig your channel and your lessons!
