This is a little bit of the history and the how-to when it comes to the whole "filling in the gap" delay, commonly set to either a dotted 8th (3/16) or dotted quarter (used by Chet Atkins, Albert Lee). Website patrons: frequency will ramp up by the back half of January. Several new modules have been filmed and will be released early 2025. RUclips viewers, the channel still goes on but daily upl...

The guitar cable crapped out, then I went into a story. Every single word and on-screen annotation is unembellished with no creative license or exaggeration, just the exact record of events. As much as I don't like modelers, profilers, and amp-less culture, these days it would be too easy to pack even just a spare SansAmp pedal. 10 years ago options were far more limited. Through the end of the...

Johnny Smith played Maid With The Flaxen Hair. Chet loved Johnny. Ted Greene loved Johnny (and Ted actually plays my favorite version). I love Johnny. In lieu of the regular daily upload which I ran out of time for again, here's footage from a long time ago in my old apartment shot on an iPhone in early 2016. Monday regularly scheduled programming resumes with another full-length video. After t...

I didn't have time to finish the video for today & get it scheduled in the queue so instead here's a Sampson-era Matchless Chieftain out in the field. Maybe 2015? Maybe? Playing some Buddy Guy/Junior Wells out in CA.

This is just about the first cardinal rule of slide guitar. I first met Jack Pearson in July of 1996 as a young student at the now long gone Nat'l Summer Guitar Workshop, which must have been the first I met Pat Bergeson who was leading the course and brought Jack in. It was shortly after I'd met Chet (albeit exceedingly briefly) at the guitar festival. Pat was in the band with Chet that Saturd...

This was done five years ago for a full-length lesson (containing notes, TAB, and note-by-note video instruction) over at Six String Country. Enjoy. www.sixstringcountry.com

Two hours on July (7th, I believe) of 1995 was enough to affect me forever. Ted Greene is more of an inspiration to me than most would ever know. Who would have thought the chord chemist would have given a young budding blues guitar player advice. The rest shouldn't offend anyone, it's very gentle and anything but caustic or critical....we do tend to protect those we love. I came to love Ted Gr...

Triads are chord-tones in their most essential and basic form. Once you get a handle on visualizing triads, you begin to see chord tones all over the fingerboard. In this video a 30 year veteran of the guitar world simplifies the process. There are no shortcuts, but...often times we make things far too complex. If this video has helped, consider leaving a like, comment, and/or subscribe. Thank ...

I was 15 or 16 years old. In this video I go over the basic concept and how to begin developing it for yourself. If you've enjoyed this, consider leaving a like, subscribe, and/or comment. It helps with the algorithm in order to build the channel to help more people in this guitar-space.

30 Years of observation went into this video. It's exceptionally obvious, but frequently missed (but the vibrato is widely discussed much more often). In the early days particularly, he was using very light strings, frequently with a shorter Gibson scale length. The formation of this approach makes much more sense when considering that Fender followed Gibson, along with string gauges. Like, com...

Quite possibly Jimi's rhythm playing may take the #1 spot for my personal favorite aspect of his guitar style. From the early days of learning to play guitar and those ancient Jimi Hendrix Electric Guitar Competitions to growing up, moving to Nashville, and Dave Pomeroy setting the whole thing up and having me out to play with Billy Cox at a panel he hosted many years ago now, there was no guit...
