Hey everyone! Thanks for swinging by. Just so you all know, I have since upped my lighting and got my hand motions in check in my newer sensei vids!
I play intermediately to advanced and what you just said deals with what the band I'm trying to start is like. I play lead guitar and the Rhythm guitarist strums his chords to hard which makes it ring out covering my notes up. I have tried telling him to cut it off at a certain point by showing him but he says I don't know nothing so I may show him this video.
But surely the true light is you Samurai? :D
magles90 yikes sounds like he wants the spotlight all to himself 😂
That was another brick in the wall right? The solo w/ and w/out spacing?
magles90 if that doesn't work you could always show him the door
What you said about Ringos drumming made me very happy. Not many people understand what a great drummer he was or why. 👍🏻
david williams he wasn't a good drummer, but he was a good musician.
Ryan Fields Have you listened to his solo stuff?
einarabelc5 I've heard his solo on their last song on their last album. He was pretty good, but not much compared to other drummers of that era (John Bonham, Buddy Rich, etc.)
Kenny Aronoff said he's lot more in-depth than people are aware of after getting his hands on the iso tracks.
I was no huge Beatles fan, but that he tended to keep it pretty simple and is still probably the most wealthy and most known drummer ever, that gives me hope as a drummer.
So, no screwing with Ringo. :)
@@RyanChaos.0 John Bonhan is my preferred drummer over Ringo, but if you do hardcore metronome work for awhile, you'll notice his timing isn't always perfect. He's been known to add a 5th beat in a four count :)
It's very obvious after lots of timing work. Feels very Twilight Zone because its SO FAR behind the beat, also :) Feel like you have so much time in between hits.
I would venture to say Ringo never did that (add beats to 4 count), but I can't be positive. He's got a nice easy feel. I like how he did the fast 8ths for "Help!" when you saw it live, it's something. Ed Sullivan, the movie Help! jmo
I don't see how anyone could compare Buddy to Ringo and throw JHB in there, tho. Very different styles, for one thing.
They were never really in the same time frame of being in their prime together, I don't think.
David Gilmour. You know exactly who's playing immediately, even though he's doing stuff that relative beginners can manage to do. No one else does so much with so little.
leerobbo92 i always think on this comment i read where someone says, you might be able to play 30 notes a second but david gilmour can make just 2 sound better
That's a trip. After watching this, DG was the first to come to mind. When I first started playing guitar in the late 80's there were so many guitar players with incredible speed and skills that were recording garbage. Then one day I was smoking a little with some friends and a buddy of mine was a PFloyd nut. He put in "the delicate sound of thunder" which is a live PFloyd album post RWaters. It changed the way I looked at playing guitar until this day. That was the day I learned how the electric guitar was supposed to be played. DG was definately no "shredder". But he's a master of these five principles he listed. Very good video for beginners or anybody who plays guitar. These are definately five fundamental things to know and practice
Mygabrielle74 man the first time i ever truly, i dont know the word understood music? or maybe appreciated music? anyways, the first time music was very important to me, i also just started smokin pot and wanted to jam out. i heard this pink floyd song i really liked on the radio and decided to give Dark side of the moon a listen, i have never looked at music the same again. it was simple stuff but at the same time was genius and beautiful. ive discovered a lot of new music since then that i love but pink floyds the one that really opened the door for me. will always be my number 1 band
leerobbo92 I completely agree with you. David Gilmour is my favorite guitar player, the idol I look up to. My style is based around a lot of space and bends just like his, but I feel like I add my own touch to it. I am nowhere near the level of mastery that David is at however.
leerobbo92 he is the perfect example of why the tone and sound of a guitar is more important then crazy shredding all over the place or when a song just has to much going on. .. making the guitar sing like vocals and being more simple can make music so much better
I love Brian May's understanding of his musical space, the variety between his licks and riffs, and the overdubs and harmonies he can create.
brian may is my favorite guitarist
Gilmour, man... he's a master of touch, space, feel... and his string bends... he squeezes the hell out of those bends.

@@bryan4321 he plays 7s i didnt even know that were a thing
Dude, you should have way more subs...
+Yago Crispim One day!
just gained a new one today. amazing videos and they are beyond helpful. please keep them coming
Dude you are amazing!!
You lose me by to loud background music. Traditional Japanese music while talking about Chuck Berry is a strange combination. Hilarious in a way is talking about musical silence with all this intrusive background music.
Getting the volume right on that is damn near impossible! Most people don't seem to mind the background music. I like it, I'll probably keep it. I appreciate the feedback though
In almost 10 years of playing, this has been one of the most helpful channels ive found
That means a lot, thank you!
I've been playing 27 years and I agree!
Been writing shit for 20 years and #3 really hit home. Maybe I can get better now.
@@czgibson3086 I have been playing since 1983 and still learned a lot from Sensai
@@TheMelody911 It just shows there's always more to learn, and we can all help each other.
Music really is magic!
serve the song is rule #1 and sometimes breaking the rest of the rules serves the song, BUT you cant effectively break the rules unless you've mastered rules. this was my first exposure to this channel and I dig it. i subbed.
I appreciate that you follow the Gilmour philosophy of leaving musical space for a song to develop a feeling!
+Sia Ayrom Funny you say that, I was thinking "what would David Gilmour play" when I did that little example
I love John Frusciante's style for some of the reasons you've also mentioned here. He has a great ear for playing soulfully without overdoing it, and a lot of his songs are very simple, yet effective. He definitely channels Hendrix in his combinations of bluesy chords with juicy licks.
Another great guitar player that comes to mind is Marty Friedman (ex-Megadeth), who can shred like a maniac, but still manages to make his guitar solos dynamic and melodic in between the technical mastery.
I love John Fruciantes Melodic n Funky sounds.. In my opinion hes smthn else
My favourite guitar player by far. His use of musical space and simple melodies to convey powerful emotions is amazing.
avishkar seth interesting song to bring up, definitely a favorite of mine on all instruments
Couldn't agree more
2:00-205 that was one of the most bad-ass diarrhea that i've heard
I love Sunga Jung's ability to play lead and rhythm simultaneously and also his ability to make the guitar sing the song using lead tones while fingerpicking rhythm... Amazing
I couldn't have said it better myself.
Do you know Tommy Emmanuel, Kotaro Oshio or other advanced fingerstyle guitarist? They'll blow your mind away. I like Sungha too and've seen him live 2 times, even got his autograph but really it's like watching a robot playing music.
KnowledgeIsKey215 this guy has a cult status. Amazing Kat.
sungha jungs music is dependent on his arranging more. his note arrangings are perfect. he knows when to add base notes . at what scale should he play and when to give a feeling of hard strum
Andy mckee, Don Ross and Calum Graham are amazing too.
I love David Gilmours bends and pinch harmonics! Cool video!
Exactly what I was going to say!
I love Robert Fripp's use of wide(and often dissonant) intervals to create unique, harmonic sounds with TONS of personality.
I love the song "Red".
James Krys the entire album is sick.
James - "Red" and "Starless and Bible Black" are my two all-time favourites. Have you seen the Live In Takamatsu video of Starless on You Tube? Mind blowing!
Fripp is utterly awesome: he looks like an accountant or something but he can summon wild fury from his instrument when he means to. Don't miss his playing on Bowie's 'Scary Monsters' album. Bowie shouting "Shut up!" over the noisy, clanging guitar is a classic Fripp moment, along with his seemingly impossible solos on the title track.
My favorite guitarist is Alex Lifeson and what I love about his style is the open strings he adds to chords and the wonderfully dirty chorus tone
Daft Doggo him and John Frusciante have to be two of the greatest in terms of nailing their role as guitarist perfectly
David Gilmour has some of the most smart guitar patterns and perfect bend intonation.
I have always enjoyed Adam Jones (tool) and his percussive riffing as well as his ability his to use the dissonance in his chords/notes in a way that makes it sound natural both from a solo point and in an entire mix.
Right there with you. I think Jones really does a good job of serving the overall song.
I wish he had a gruff Japanese samurai accent.
Jerry Cantrell of Alice in Chains has an incredible, delicious, soulful vibrato and intuitively manipulates scales in such a cool way. he deserves more praise imho!
Agreed
Not only that but he shreds so tastefully
those cut outs where not settle and made an awesome difference thumbs up
Frusciante's phrasing and music theory chops always impress me - many players either play the note you're expecting, or if they go for that "jazz" note (like an add6 or 9ths/2nds in arps) they assume the note will provide it's own meaning. John always plays like he MEANS to play that note, and because of that, they NEVER sound like "jazz" notes. They sound like poetry with soft rhymes but performed in a way that you don't notice it (like a lot of modern hip-hop).
Love the way Keith Richards weaves parts in and out of a song and makes the most out of sonic spaces. Can never tell who's playing what or when a part will go from melody to being in the background (especially with all the guitar parts recorded on those old stones tracks). Great vid!
My favourite guitar player is you; I like that you share your knowledge in an easy to understand way.
Great Videos man! Love the strange scales and legato of Josh Homme's playing as well as the Glitchy noisey playing of Jeff Tweedy and Nels Cline.
Josh homme has got a special touch
Josh Homme is always interesting to listen to
Love Mike Oldfield and his use of perfect phrasing for the song, his vibrato is also my inspiration, up and down the neck between frets, more like a violinist, than side to side (low string to high) as most guitarists do.
The tone of the "proper" musical space solo example was Godlike. As a metalhead who can never get enough distortion and volume, SamuraiGuitarist is the change of pace I've needed. Cheers!
#4 Knowing your musical role. This piece is wonderfully encapsulated. You use Ringo as an example, and to me I immediately think of not just The Edge but the entirety of U2. I can't think of another band who always plays in service of the song. Edge is frequently called the rhythm guitarist to Adam's lead bass. A bit tongue in cheek, but the layers they weave together along with Larry on drums is astounding. Thanks for the great video!
Lou Reed and Sterling Morrison are my favorite guitar players. Especially together. Sterling had complex skill, but could also rip a hole in the universe with his fuzz solos.
Lou Reed was a master rhythm player, and an alien lead player.
Listen to "sister Ray" by the Velvet Underground for a perfect example of rhythm and chaos molding into one thing. Organized chaos, if you will.
The rhythm guitar playing on What Goes On is probably the best I've ever heard. I thought I was the only person in the world who likes Morrison and Reed!
Since when does Steve Aoki play guitar?
whos that
A talentless dick
Edit: Granted, he does know how to throw a cake.
@@SlipknotMickk Edm pop producer.
I've always loved John Lee Hooker's rhythmical trickery. That breakdown in 'Boom Boom' is a great example of how to use rhythm to completely alter the feel of the song whilst playing the same notes. And 'House Rent Boogie' is the only song I've ever heard that makes just playing one chord interesting :)
I watched it all and I gotta say I love everything about David Gilmour's guitar playing bends, tone, how he can tell a story with a solo and how he's got that signature tone where you can always tell when he's playing. Thanks for the video.
George Harrison has to be my favorite guitarist. The way he played in the Beatles and on his own records you can hear him improve and just get better and establish his sound. George kicked ass on the guitar!
I love Darrell Abbots vibratos and bends. i.e. the solo on Floods
Delta_F508 just call him dimebag you weirdo
El Mucho Ding Dong 😂😂 Right?
This is easily the most informative, helpful, genuine, and the most low pressure video on guitar playing of all time. Like I don’t want to do anything sceptnfor play guitar after this video. You deserve all of the subs.
my favorite thing about certain guitarists, or musicians in general, is the emotion that they convey through music. i love when you can feel like youre going through what the musician is going through just by listening to their music. thats what i've alyeas wanted to achieve in music.
Can't believe I just found your channel... U da man! Subbed!
Love the emotion Frusciante puts into his guitar playing.
Rhythm is everything man, something we all need to work on. Whether it’s comping or soloing rhythm and space are the two most important parts of music that a lot of people forget about and is something that I am definitely still working on. Glad you brought it up man!
I love the point you made about cutoffs. That's one reason I love the blues is because it has a sense of breathing to the lead playing as opposed to a string of non-stop notes
Synyster Gates, when playing gypsy jazz, has the best traversal of the neck I've ever seen, making every note in every odd part count, and ring.
Marty Friedman's phrasing...he's running scales but it just really doesn't sound like it, almost ever. I love that. so heavy yet melodic.
Bending into tune..good advice I need to try your practices 👍🏻👍👌
I have been a hobby guitar player for 25 years, these tips are awesome! I often play by myself and for a fuller sound don't pay attention to where the notes stop. Great tip
I love that you talked about sonic space. space and the use of silence. I love throwing a hard stop in the middle of a riff to raise tension right before the payoff. Jack White uses space brilliantly and chaotically, cutting in and out while staying in perfect rhythm.
George Harrison wasn’t much of a shredder but he always played with a ton of soul and played exactly what the song was missing
So well said, that's what I think as well
Down picking God James hetfield
_Pigs can sniff out truffles with their snouts._
Ever heard of matt heafy and corey beaulieu?
Nothing against Hetfield but Johnny Ramone is the down picking God. I would not be surprised if Hetfield was influenced by him.
@@davidrpriest Maybe he was influenced by him, but James is a way better guitarist in every aspect
@@rubenskodicdeler2145 - I am not saying that Johnny Ramone is as a good a guitarist as Hetfield but Johnny Ramone created an iconic sound with nothing but downstrokes his entire career.
I have always felt that musical space is extremely important and I love to use it a lot. Love the video. Definitely subbed.
I've not spent much time learning theory, and because of this channel it's encouraged me to learn more theory and just improve my playing even more. Thanks for everything, man.
my favorite guitarist is jb brubaker from august burns red. His solos are usually less shreddy and more melodic and very unique overall.
I'm a huge fan of his style as well
JB is amazing! Not only are his solos so melodic and amazing, but his song writing in general is great. Each ABR song has uniquely different melodys. No other metal band compares in my opinion.
I love the way John Frusciante made small rhythm parts sound big, in the Chili Peppers songs. Many times he was just playing 2 or 3 notes, yet it was complementing the music so well, and the music would sound very empty without them. Best examples are Can't Stop, Otherside, and Snow.
Slash (my other favourite) has the thing that very few others do. He plays fast, but not like a shredder. His speed playing has as much feel as his slow playing. One reason for this is his choice of notes (to know what I'm talking about, listen to his Godfather solos in the early GnR days, or the ending solo of Anastasia, or his solo on This I Love). Another thing is, unlike most shredders, he respects musical space.
Two of my favourite guitarists!!
But This I Love is not Slash
+Manu fm Exactly my point. Interpretation of a guitar solo that has already been composed in one way is not easy. For the first few concerts, it was kinda lousy. I heard one of the later ones and it was just aaawwwwesome.
Loved this video. Ive been taking lessons for about 4 months now and have some hurdles but guys like you who are always paying it forward make it easier. Thanks!!
i really appreciate guitar videos that focus on musicality. We need the technique to reproduce whatever we want without limitations, but musicality is just as important for reaching that end.
Nice shirt, didn't know you were a Winnipeg fan!
Oh my life you've got balls, just reading the comments here. It doesn't matter how right and helpful a video teaching musical concepts is, there will still be someone absolutely SLAting you for it hahaha. I agree with everything you said especially the broader "philosophical" aspects of playing music. I hardly want to state my biggest inspiration here but it's AC/DC! They knew from day one about space in the music, letting the music breathe and knowing their roles.
Don't mind the haters!
Primo X ACDC was the reason I picked up a guitar. Nearly 10 years later I came back to them and it wasn't until then that i learned the importance of musical space and knowing when to stop playing a note that this vid talked about - makes your band sound so much tighter. What I was hearing from them was exactly what I was I missing in my bands music, and it's just accepting that to make things sound best, less is more. Keep the moments of 'more' limited so that they have greater affect
Where would we be without the 5 ("power") chord? Something absolute beginners can do and sound REALLY big...?
agree, lots of space in their songs.
I was very into them as a teen. I got more into Journey/Perry as I started singing more. Too old to care what anyone says about that. I can easily give a dissertation on it, too. On more than one instrument. Except Ross, lol. There are bass players i like much more :)
I love the way you teach! it's very easy to understand, even if the concept itself is not as easy. My favorite thing about this video is how you emphasized on serving a bigger purpose, the song! As a musician I know it's hard to put your ego away, you want to show off, but it feels a lot better when everything is in harmony
J J Cale - I love the way he plays complex melodies in such a relaxed, laid-back way that they sound totally effortless. Also I think he has the best tone and phrasing I have ever heard, overall. Brilliant video, by the way - just subscribed because of this one!
So that means if you are playing rock rhythm guitar, play it like malcom young, play hard and with the other guy when you need to and stick back and hang out with the drummer and the bass guy when its that time
Izzy was also a master at this.
To me, a fast, smooth swept arpeggio sequence holds more "weight" than some cheesy bend with vibrato while making faces seen during a bout of constipation.
check out Marcel Coenen - fusion.
WintersunForever so you'd rather have no feel and just run a scale?
Judson Ruddick Is that what I said? and FEELING is subjective. emo blues garbage doesnt appeal to me. classical music makes me feel good.
Hahaha classical music
WintersunForever how can you call blues emo? And garbage?
I understand both sides. Ultimately, what we value in terms of weighing the importance of different elements of music is entirely subjective. Ultimately, emotional communication is the key. There is certainly no lack of emotional content in classical music.
Hey, THANK YOU for explaining how to "Serve the Song" - a much-needed skill for musicians in any band!
Mac DeMarco with that slippery chorus and the way there is always a trippy Dischord in his instrumental areas like in the song 'Me and Jon hanging on'
I totally agree with all your points except Bend Intonation.
I think if you bend up to a note too easily and accurately, then why bend at all.
If you bend up just a little bit flat then it has a bit more soul in it. Making the guitar cry a little.
Sounding more like you're striving to get there if you see what I mean.
I don't mean to be picky, I think all the other points are spot on.
Agreed, but it depends on which note in the scale you're bending to tho. For instance if you're bending from the 7th up to the root note i think it sounds kinda bad if its flat
I agree with you, especially in blues where that 3rd minor to major interval is magical, there might be other examples as you mention too. But I think this aims to those who always miss the bend and sounds awful. amirite?
Joey Martini That just confirms the point.
Parisienne Walkways by Gary Moore is the perfect example of what I'm saying. 😎
listen to dazed and confused by led zeppelin
look at al di meola, sometimes more notes mean more.
This is true and there is some personal preference going on here. While I have all the respect in the world for Al Di Meola, I have a hard time staying engaged by his music. But that's just me and my taste is no more valid than anyone else's
I find his attitude to slower players off putting. hardly listen to him now. Gimme B.B. any day.
Colin Plumb It's a style, some days I like grant green or BB king, but Alec Di Meola has a killer technical playing style. I read his tech book and it has some realy helpful stuff and I feel sometimesmany notes convay many emotions. I mean I know a lot of kids who went into guitar with shredding only in mind, it wasn't off putting for them, they would end up doing not to bad. Al Di Meola had some shred moments but also a lot of cool flaminco stuff witch in nature is fast.
*Al Di Meola not Alec lol. I hate auto correct.
Thanks a lot man, great tips! The thing I love about my favorite guitar player is his " natural fluidity". Whether he he plays lead, rhythym, or slide it's just so smooth with great phrasing and more choice.
this is helpful, i really like the 3rd tip. know the musical role cuz all musicians really do want to show their chops but hold back when someone else has a cool riff/lick coming in
4:53 "You can do that by doing some bending exercises."
.... *and that's how I discovered that I am an airbender.*
The music is not in the notes but in the silence between.
Great video sensei! Excellent tips.
I love John Petrucci's playing, a very broad range of styles and techniques. A massive memory of music. Has untouchable ability to create pefect tone(s).
Also, his unisons with Jordan Rudess are completely insane.
Thanks man! I like the quick concise way you went through these tips. You talked about, you showed, then summarized. Really great man

4:30 kirk hammet starts crying somewhere
Great video, but Ringo did'nt play the drums on come together, it was Paul, which led to the now much loved quote from John Lennon, upon being asked if Ringo was the best drummer in the world, he replied. "He's not even the best drummer in the Beatles!" Classic.
Are you sure about that? Every source I can find says Ringo played on "Come Together" while Paul played on a couple others. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Come_Together#Personnel I'm open to being wrong on that I'd just want to see a source for that. Cheer mate
The line often attributed to John Lennon - "Ringo isn't the best drummer in the world. He isn't even the best drummer in the Beatles" - was actually uttered by British comedian Jasper Carrott in 1983.
Ahh I came to this video just to say that! A fellow redditor eh?
sauce?
fact is, Ringo even got new drum skins the day they recorded "Come Together", which gave this much peculiar smooth sound to the song
I came across your channel yesterday and I LOVE it. I play bass and I still take all of this in and it's been a huge help and a wonderful reference point. Thank you
All my faves have been mentioned already - Gilmour, Lifeson, Hendrix, Page. I'll add Randy Rhoads, Adrian Smith, and Alex Skolnick for their ability to shred with feeling.
hi should I start learning how to play the guitar I am only 14 so yes or no
papa thug no
Yes, you must. As soon as you start the better it is going to be for you. But I recommend you to search for a teacher, it is not a good idea to start by your own.
papa thug you should be learning as early as possible
papa thug Now is the time. Get some good basic instruction starting out. It will save you a lot of frustration.
papa thug no, you have to be at least 30 years old to play guitar. Sorry bro.
you look like dave navarro also no one "shredded" drums back then
Ser Hunts Reviews Agreed maybe one of the originals of "shredding" on drums would be John Bonham still after Ringo though
Keith moon
jazz drumming?
I just started a 6 man band in college, tip number 4 is the best advice i can ever get, as a rhythm guitarist it can be tempting to show off, but i know my role
One of my favorite guitarists (well, multi instrumentalist/producer/music academic/polymath) who’s not one of the obvious big rock guitarists is Jim O’Rourke. His John Fahey style that he adopted into a lot of open chord folk picking that blends in weird dissonant shifts and almost atonal aspects that just all flow perfectly together is always inspiring whenever I listen to any of the folkier, guitar driven records he’s made. His sense/use of rhythm, space, release , inversion, and the way he flows through huge, dense multi picking that will flow right into minimal notes perfectly is pretty incredible.
first was musical diarrhea and nest lick was constipation...lol just kidding... thnks
You can't just play less notes and expect it to be good, it's about melodic phrasing more than anything, listen to Joe Satriani for someone who masters it
I just found your channel I love the way you have these set up. You are very efficient in articulating why the "textbook" matters in "real life".
Every video I have watched has been very helpful, and is laid out very well! I applaud you sir!
I love Jerry Cantrell's bends and harmonics. The way he manipulates the strings is unique and unparalleled in my opinion.
too bad man buns stole your samurai style
Actually, that's exactly what they did in their own way
Great video. Terrible taste in hockey teams. it's a wash.
Please! You gotta like the future of Jets. cmmmmmmonnnn
Come onnn, the Florida Panthers and Anaheim Ducks maybe in everyone's hearts... but a jet-plaine? That's awesome!
And to be honest, I haved a Tab open with F-22 pictures just because I got some design Ideas using the 22Raptor silhouette in Vertical Take-off I was observing yesterday. hahaha
I absolutely love your content, and I can't stress how awesome it is that your intro lasts under 20 seconds. It takes some people over 2 minutes to get to the actual list.
Keep up the good work!
Gilmour all the way, Sensei. That beautiful tone!
I quit when he said that Ringo Starr was one of the greatest musicians ever.
I would encourage you to watch this video ruclips.net/video/9oQsKRyihEA/видео.html
I have seen it. however though, i disagree. there are so many drummers that could have done it better in the Beatles. An interviewer asked John "Is Ringo the best drummer in the world?" to which John replied "Ringo isn't even the best drummer in The Beatles".
John was also known for employing a fair bit of sarcasm in interviews. Find me one working drummer who doesn't have the utmost respect for Ringo and I'll show you someone who doesn't get hired often.
samuraiguitarist I totally agree, Id rather pick someone who know how to serve a song, than someone who has all the chops but is all over the place.
Stop wasting your time on this. He quited (sic), let him go.
Love your videos! My favorite musician is Rick Graham. He is so fluid during his solos, he had virtually no pick attack, and he doesn't over exaggerate his movements. It's all very fluid and very subtle, even though he's an insane shredder.
I think my favorite aspect of guitarists I like is their simplicity. I'm left handed, and my right hand is never really able to do that super fast thing that people seem to enjoy rubbing in peoples' faces. I have a major respect for people like Joe Strummer for that very reason.
I originally clicked this video because I was bored, but after watching it so glad I did! You talk about things in this video that I've always thought about but don't fully comprehend because I'm not an expert on guitar playing as well as playing music in general. Thanks for making such a great video!
I love Slash's solos on his World on fire album. I am learning how to phrase like that. That's one thing I love most about his playing. Your videos have been a great help to me. Thank you!
I love Synyster Gates' choice of scales, notes and runs/passages :) They are extremely clean sounding and compliment the song
Μ.Κ. Aveline was that sarcasm? If not then he is the lead and Zacky Vengance is the rhythm who really is the chord guy
Hey man I know Syn is the lead but he was asking (I think) about our favourite guitarist's style , not our favourite rhythm player's style.Could have missed the part where he specified it though . If so , my bad . Love the deathbat pic ;)
By far the timing. I really like the way John Dwyer plays because he keeps a super good rhythm. Also love the way he syncs up with his keyboardist when laying down riffs. Very tight
4 years since 1st watching this. This has helped me to no end and helped me play more like a pro and I have been in a tons of jams with local bands. Arigatou gozaimasu, Sensei!
This was an awesome, concise, and well explained video. As a guitarist of 15 years who sometimes finds themselves in a rut, I really appreciated your advice. Subscribed, Thanks! :)
being a little older my favorite players are always taking you somewhere and really bringing some new aspect to the song...David Gilmour ..Duane Allman..Randy Rhoads ..EVH. ..I agree with your statement on Ringo in that if he was just a drummer instead of a great musician then his great feel for what the songs needed wouldn't be there.
This blew my mind. Especially the part about the cut offs. Thanks! liked and subbed straight away!
SRV's touch. hands down favorite.
