Most great guitarists have slight reservations about giving out all their secrets, a couple here and there, but keep a few close to your chest (after all you worked your ass off to learn these, lol). One thing Brett does very well is putting guys in a vulnerable spot, slows it down, and kinda forces them to give up the goods. It's an art in itself. Much love brother! RJ is truly a Saint in the guitar community.
Thanks! Most aren't trying to keep secrets they just take their experience for granted and often its the subtle things they do that they don't even think about anymore that make them so good. RJ is really an awesome dude! Such a fantastic play. More coming soon!
Brilliant lesson, I love the way Brett instantly latches onto something he knows his viewers love to have broken down and explained. Then a lot of things start making sense .
BB got the most mileage out of a note everywhere and anywhere he went in the world and on the fretboard. He’s still ringing them out up there in the blue skys of the pearly gates. Awesome you guys are killin it… 👍🎸🤓🌎☮️
Great Job Fellas !! Keep pumping out the lessons. That’s why most of us are here. That and gear related Demos. Love both of your channels. It’s great to see y’all DOING It together. 🎸👍
You know 10 years ago I type how to play blues links for electric guitar. Pappa tach was one of the first I saw. He had a read winter hat on and a huge handle bar, Stacie. That got me to watch his video. Best choice ever. His teaching has changed my playing and life forever. Thank you, Brett. Could not of done it without you.
Lovely So much melodicism, taste and feel by RJ, and paying respect to the chord changes! And, as always, Brett's guitar accompaniment to the artists he features is rock solid.
Good stuff! Brett, always love you and your guests! 👍 👌 34:33 Brett, i always treat scales as "guides," not "rules." Then i utilize other "personality" and "emotion" notes like the blue note (passing), using the 6th instead of the 7th, and i ALWAYS do the slur from minor 3rd to Major 3rd, like RJ was talking about. (Usually i hammer-on to Maj 3rd, but once in a while i side it.) I also like moving down to 9th esp when playing changes. Gee, i thought it was "my sound," i didn't know it was a thing! Hmmm.
@brettpapa This might've been your best blues tutorial to date! RJ targeting major 3 notes to punch the chord progression 🤯. Getting him slow down, no, "slow down" is the magic that really helps us bite on. #WWBBD #WWBPD #WWRJD
@@BrettPapa Love you Papa, you and Marty are the reason I stuck with guitar those first couple years finally getting some of my time back. Thanks to you.
Great jam at the intro, BP!! Key of G is especially hard for me to sound unusual and unexpected but also great at the same time! Also..........RJ plays with confidence. Jim C.
Yes there are tabs in the course. As far as being for left handed players tabs are just numbers on a string so it doesn't really matter for left or right.
PAPA, why is RJs bridge pickup sound very twangy? When showing the BB boxes his bridge pickup sounds very twangy to get that BB tone. What type of pick ups is RJ guitar using? Jimmie Vaughan also got this very twangy tone out of his bridge pickup but not sure how he does it
@@BrettPapa RJ added a Blender pot for Neck+Bridge to get that twangy tone. I was wondering if those Fralin Split rail pickups were that twangy in the bridge. The Split Rail pickups do have 2 coils sort of like a humbucker to get that BB king twangy tone.
@@waynegram8907 You are correct - I rolled the blender pot on to get neck + bridge. The Fralin Split Blades are "meatier" than regular Strat pickups. I think of them as halfway between Strat at P90s.
@@RJRonquillo Other guitar companies are using RC Resistor Capacitors values with the Bleeder pot to get phase shift BB king tones. Using the 300K volume pot helps with the extra high end. Those Split Blades are 2 coils so its using a dummy coil I think as the 2nd coil or its something other than humbucking two coils.
