As a lifelong Hendrix fan for 50 years can I just say that I was seriously impressed with your playing. Fantastic technique lesson where you really capture the essence of Jimi's sound. Thank you so much! Subscribed!! I'm 66 and I've just ordered a new guitar!
I'm 74 and I bought a Fender Strat six months ago.
The more impressive thing about Jimi Hendrix is that also today his music is so hard to play. It sounds original until today., like it's been released now.
Ivan Malanquini that’s the magic of the recording also man. Those 60’s studios had power!
U didnt get the point
Uh, I love Jimi's music, but it really isn't to hard to play his rythym parts. Some of his live playing (mostly his solos) is hard, yes, but the majority of his discography isn't that hard. Can you give me a few examples of songs of his that you think are difficult?
Ivan Malanquini yeah! The Beatles too! Specially Sgt. Peppers, Abbey Road and Let it Be álbuns.
Guilherme Lacerda da Costa Yes, can’t think of another band that made hundreds of songs that all sounded different. Won’t ever be another like them
It's literally impossible not to pick up my guitar when I'm watching your videos
Haha, yeah, that's how I feel too.
The greatest guitarist of all time ( in my opinion). A trailblazer.
Shiran Vyasa For the amount of recorded material in the short time he was here, I’d agree
You wanna have your mind blown check out Guitar Shorty's vids here on youtube and youll see his trail was blazed for him by this guy!Even Chuck Berry got his ideas from a guitar player in the 30's !They expanded upon what was already there !
Gary Hundsrucker Just checked him out, never heard of him before. I am 🤯
Virat Shah Jimi didn’t inspire legions of people? C’mon, give that some thought there. Just look at the players that inspired the most lessons on RUclips. It’s not Scotty Moore. They are Hendrix & BB King. Far more rock & blues players (but not the only genres)were & are still influenced by these 2 than were not. Who gives a 💩 how Jimi lived his life? Best of all time? Ah, well, uh. But for the short time (10 yrs maybe professional)he was here he made an impact that has yet to be matched. Think SRV would’ve been the same without hearing Hendrix? John Frusciante? Robin Trower? I can keep going if I need to. Scotty Moore? How bout the country gentleman himself? Chet Freakin Atkins!!
there lots of great guitarists,im one,you probably also are.i think of music in terms of running ,track and field etc but more like a relay and not a drag race.
there are no clear winners or losers,just people carrying the baton and with each new person we are all adding something to what existed previously
altering the original formula.sometimes the addition is good,some times its bad but it adds flavors to the original recipe so there are billions
of ways to reach the same end.
The Strat masters have a unique style and you do such a great job of explaining it. Would love to see some Mark Knopfler in the future!
Strat players don’t “hide behind their humbuckers,” says Ritchie Blackmore.
bill kirchen
He's my guitar inspiration, can't wait for a why Knopfler Kicks Ass video
Another true original, great player.
@@wtpattonjr There's nothing like a Fat Stat
This is like somebody revealing how a magician can saw a person in half.
Actually it's more like making a person, or a guitar, levitate!!! 🎸

I did a presentation on Jimi Hendrix for college last year. And as part of it, I learned some of Jimi’s playing techniques. Needless to say, it changed the way I now play
So brilliant & emotional video. Merely a small glimpse why Jimi was the greatest. The song writing. The rhythm. Communicating the message of the song with the guitar. Much more than merely "a guitarist" or "soloist". @10:02 Power To Love.
Hendrix is the greatest guitar player of all times!
well, there is Joe Pass, too. ; P
Guthrie govan
Guthrie is a fantastic current guitar player but Jimi started it all. Everybody has picked up bits and pieces of his playing style. Right?
SRV 😁
I loved SRV but there wouldn't have been an SRV without Jimi!!!!! Stevie carried the torch.......He died way too soon..........
You have so much charm and musical intelligence. You shine bright :)
Thanks David you’re very kind, I am glad you liked the video. I never know if a video is any good, when editing I see it a thousand times, after a while it’s hard to tell whether it’s crap or good, so your comment is appreciated brother!
@@GuitarPilgrim - I have been watching and listening to Hendrix for a long long time, trying to work out how he gets his amazing sound. And now I know! You explained it so well. You have a gift for communication.
Jimi was my first guitar hero. Are you Experienced was the first album I saw and heard and it made me interested in guitar sounds. He is the one that made me want to play guitar. Innovative like no other. Funny, I still can't play much of his stuff at all..lol. You can do Jimi videos weekly or daily and keep my attention. Thank you!
"Power to Love" is my favorite Hendrix song, especially the lead part that comes just after the beginning licks you played at the end of this video. I've only just found your channel, but enjoy your style. I would love to see you study/explain Jeff Beck's style, if you haven't yet. I will be watching more of your videos to see what you do next. Keep up the good work.
I love that song as well, it’s more funk inspired, awesome!
the lead part that comes just after the beginning licks you played....
Namens alle nederlandstalige fans. Bedankt voor weer een fijne les. Je enthousiasme en kunde spatten van het scherm.. ge zijt unne goeie!
As if I needed to be reminded, the lesson learned: Never ever no way am I going to play like Jimi ... or like Guitar Pilgrim.
You really have the Hendrix sound down well. You are dedicated to teaching
Damn,.. You'd really gave me goosebumps with your first turnarounds here.. Thanks for the video and that awesome playing of yours, sir! - And agree,..Jimi was the best player ever..
He certainly is for me too!
*What's amazing about Jimi's technique is that wrapping his thumb and fingers around the neck the way he did, he was able to pinpoint notes without disturbing others and just ending up with horrible noise.*
Ultimately, there's no such thing as wrong technique and while it seems Jimi's would be assumably terrible at face value on sight, *the results proved it was not.*
A very good friend of my used Jimi's technique when we were still teenagers and I was always impressed by how well it worked. I learned my share of Hendrix songs and riffs, but never stuck with his unique thumb note fretting style.
*I would say that if you really want to make a name for yourself in blues, that technique is why it is said good artists borrow, but great artists steal; you do something so well that the current generation believes you are the origin of something.*
Love it! Thanks for the video. And thanks for showing me how to play Dolly Dagger.
The thing is, Hendrix had HUGE hands. I've tried to learn his thumb technique but my hands are simply not big enough. When I try to use my thumb my other fingers aren't long enough to reach all the other strings-- let alone do embellishments. I've learned to deal with it while still being able to mimic Hendrix's sound... somewhat, anyway. He's very difficult to copy because he would do lots of weird, unpredictable things-- especially in his solos. He's by far the most unique player in rock 'n roll history.
Amen to that brother!
I’ve tried so hard to mimic the baseball grip but just can’t get there without screaming out in pain. I can see how Jimi did it because he had huge hands, but how did Stevie Ray Vaughan do it? I guess there’s a reason why he was SRV and I’m not! 🤣
MJ H SRV had big hands as does John Mayer
Dillon Hamrick I didn’t realize that. It was obvious with Jimi because his hand looked like it would wrap around the fretboard multiple times.
MJ H Yup SRV had some strong fingers too bending those .13 strings I think. Yeah Jimi had alien fingers for sure. I’ve been trying forever to do the thumb thing
what a great demonstration of Jimi guitar playing tips love to see more of this i have been playing guitar for for 54yrs after i saw Hendrix play hey joe on the tv my biggest regret is i never saw him play live i could not find a lift to the isle of wight festival
thank you for your sympathy and rare pedagogy
I didn't even have to get to the halfway point to give this a like. The importance of Jimi popularizing barring with his thumb can't really be understated and while he may not have been the first person to do it, guitarists the world over owe this innovation to him. Good job.
You have Hendrix down to an art! Saw Jimi in 68' at Columbia, Maryland. My first concert and he became my "Hero" right there and then............blew me away!!!!!!!!!!
Woah, that must have been amazing, that's awesome brother!!
It changed my life! I was 14 at the time.............
Great video. Unfortunately, Jimi Hendrix thumb technique is impossible if your hands aren't big enough to do it. I have tiny hands and normally this isn't that much of an obstacle, but the Jimi Hendrix thumb thing has eluded me for my entire life. It's such a cool sound and I wish I could do it.
Same I have a big palm but shorter fingers I guess. I just can’t get my thumb to act right
3:16 - "Remember" the first Jimi Hendrix song I learned over 10 years ago. Very simple and straightforward.
it sounds simple and straightforward indeed, but take that intro, it's hard to play that as good as it sounds on the record!
@@GuitarPilgrim Yes you are right. The intro in the song is the hardest part. It took me a long time to play it well. But if we talk about chord embellishments, and strumming, this is a great song to understand base principles of Hendrix style
Great playing! Just fantastic. Thanks for the information and loved that clip of Little Richard being his usual restrained self!
Little richard, you can’t help but love the man!
@@GuitarPilgrim - When I was a kid my older cousin played me Little Richard records on his record player. Been a fan ever since - for the last 56 years.
@@carltaylor4942 his voice... nobody can sing like that, absolutely brilliant!
Great channel ! Also very good playing! Congratulations . Jimi is the best till today . The most influential guitarist for other pro players also to shredders or other "superior" technical players too. I think because Jimi is autodidact ,practice and playing a lot, and his natural magical talent. Also his rythmic playing, his rhythmic sense of music, unique. Nobody can beat him till today.
Hey, this is probably the best breakdown explanation of Hendrix techniques with emphasis on the feel behind the mechanics.
Mr. Guitar pilgrim you sir are a phenomenal guitarist it is really hard to believe that you are not the lead guitarist in one of the best rock and roll bands that exist. You definitely could do it so I guess that you just don't choose to, all the same I really enjoy your stuff. Keep up the good work.
Wow, was waiting another Hendrix videos and here you are killing it. Great explanation on his particular techniques. I always have trouble with a clean muting and I guess i need a lot of more practice with what you just demonstrated!
Uouuuu! Olá! Sou um brasileiro apaixonado por Blues Rock, Hendrix é a minha referência, venho buscando entender e assimilar o estilo, a visão, as técnicas... enfim... O mestre Hendrix... Parabéns pelo canal, tem me ajudado bastante! Grato, Abraços!!!
This is one of the BEST RUclips channels around. Every video is awesome. Keep it up my man!
Seriously unrated/undersubscribed channel. Amazing Content as always!
Agree. I'm not a guitar player but his technique and his nice guy approach are great to watch.
Great Job and explanation....how come my thumb just doesn't bend that way? maybe I'm missing something about getting the grip? I need to get a grip on this?
Me too on my thumb
A friend of mine played it that way with no problems
This is the best Hendrix lesson on RUclips. So. Freaking. Good.
Love that iteration of "Dear Mr. Fantasy", really well played
The greatest of them all
Isabella is one of the greatest rock songs ever written. Live at Woodstock is my favorite version it’s insane
Michael Sandoval his tone on that song🔥
Glad I watched this before Janey H gets it taken down
The 50 year legal moraltorium on Jimi's music comes off on 18 September this year.
Excellent look at a musical genius at work.
Fantastic video. If you can play like Hendrix, and you can, you really don't need to go any further.
haha, I wish that was true, until I discovered people like chet atkins and Tommy Emmanuel or Paco de lucia, there's so much to discover and learn, it never ends! that's the great thing about music isn't it?
You make it look so easy!
his unique and rich tone and texture, like the blues masters, and effortless transitions between notes and chords like water flowing in a stream ... that is the difference between Jimi and SRV!
I´m a bass player and I´ve accessed your videos by chance. Very helpfull! Now you made me look for a guitar, borrowed from a friend who wants to choose a dozen basses I have at home. Thanks, teatcher! Cheers from Brazil!
Great Idea if your fingers are long enough! Mine aren't so it's back to the drawing board.
Great video of explaining the nuances of the cosmic Maestro Jimi Hendrix.
It's still awesome after all these years.
Thom, your videos and playing are always welcome and amazing. Many guitar lessons on RUclips but none as good brother! 🎶🎸👍🎵
Words can't completely convey how awesome you are! Great feel. Great teaching. Fun stuff! Thanks.
Thom you are a genius on the guitar. Keep Rocking.
Thanks Earl, hendrix was a genius for sure, I am for sure not! Haha
The best tutorial dedicated to the Hendrix technique that I have ever seen
YUP!!! Jimi was way ahead of his time for sure. Incredible player. Gone way to soon and gone now for way to long. RIP JIMI
Nice video ...Hello from indonesia
Terima kasih!
Loved this video, explained it so well, I’ve been working on understanding his embellishments and soloing between chords but couldn’t quite understand it completely but you definitely have helped me out. For sure doing to come back to this video in the future to perfect the skills!!
Dear Mr Fantasy is a very great song.. I love that solo
Great Lesson! And, More Importantly, Your Love and Respect for Jimi and his Music Shines Through!
first time ive heard a hendrix was wind cries mary. blew me away instantly with his blemishes and different rhythm techniques.
hello to everyone...which is the first song?? at 0:55??
thanos adreou Dolly Dagger
Anyone who loves Hendrix, has my respect. Set my world on fire. Amazing guitarist, musician & visionary artist.
Number 3 at the end Rocked! Good lesson..
I ve been waiting for a video like this for 20 years. Just with the first (bar chord) technique id be happy but u explain 3! Gracias infinitas bro 🙏🏻🤘🏻
My thoughts exactly. As soon as he played that Jimi style I subed at the speed of a Bruce Lee one inch punch. Instantly my fovorito new canal carnal. You feel me?
Dude, your tone is incredible.
This guy is so good at explaining that I was without playing imagining myself if I could do that just by watching him! Amazed!
*Guitar Pilgrim you nailed it. Awesome info and guitar tone..*
Thx Mike, much appreciated!
I have been playing guitar for 18 years. Born and raised on classic rock. love and play every style music from blue grass and Brazilian to progressive and electronic . but never have I ever really dug Hendrix or Clapton. Could be the only guy out here, just never been as WOW'd.
I'm a bassist but a big fan of Hendrix your Hendrix techniques are killer! love it!
Your Videos are excellent. Maybe the best on RUclips!
You're very kind Andreas, I have long way to go I think, but I am enjoying it, it's ok to mistakes and I make a lot of em, haha
@@GuitarPilgrim You! make mistakes. That's a relief to know.
His National Anthem live at Woodstock is also out of this world!
Buddy guy set his guitar on fire when playing for Muddy Waters. Hendrix was present and thought it was awesome
Sweet. You know I first saw a couple of your vids about a year ago but they were mostly acoustic guitar so I didn't subscribe. Your video's have been popping up on my recommendations a couple of times the last month so I checked out what you have been up to and have been blown away.
What a great channel. You explain things in a very easy to understand way and point out things that I think a lot of more advanced players take for granted or aren't always consciously aware of. So they don't pass it on. I really appreciate you you communicate on here. Your videos are interesting, educational and fun. Always feel like I came back with useful new knowledge after watching one of your videos. Cheers :). I decided to subscribe.. You have a lot of stuff for me to watch and I'm finally at the stage, I guess late beginner where I can actually use some of it.
Thank you so much Adrian for that kind comment! Ever since I started to do more Electric guitar stuff, the channel has been doing much better and shooting video, editing, it sure takes lot's of time to get better at it! I'm having fun all the way, that's the important thing and that I'm able to help or inspire someone else, really is the best feeling in the world, so thank you brother!
Well done sir. You are talented.
3:58 - 4:26. This is superb!
Love this guy, so passionate & enthusiastic 🙌🙌
The Best! Thanks much for your keen insight into the GOAT for electric guitarists~!
Great lesson. V useful tips. Look forward to your next Hendrix lesson👍😎🎸
Another great video from GP. I look forward to them and you cover such a wide range of inspirational players, techniques etc with such clear and uncomplicated presentation.
That was the coolest old MacDonald I’ve ever heard
I studied classical guitar in high school and the thumb wrap was considered improper technique. A few years later when I started to learn the proper way to play Hendrix songs I had bring my thumb into play. The flesh of your thumb sounds different than the flesh of your finger, the thumb is essential for proper Hendrix tone.
Bravo! Excellent instructional video! One of the most informative tutorials I have seen on "RUclips" thank you!
I love your ENERGY and obvious excitement when playing. Well done video and added clips.
You are so clear , I enjoy every video, thank you very much !
Best guitar channel. Period.
And beautiful Strat! I wish to have one of those someday...
Awesome tip! Hendrix came from the R&B School aka Little Richard..a lot of soul! He also never played a relic 'd Strat he only relic 'd them... Glad I watched it and I have to practice it
Great channel Guitar Pilgrim. I discovered you today and love the way you explain Hendrix. You combine passion with music and are a great teacher. Musical Greetzzz from Rotterdam.
That dolly dagger progression at the beginning mate was bloody beautiful.
Great job
For a second there my eyes widened when I thought you were about to play the solo after the intro to Power to Love. This is missing on some recordings. It’s on the original Band of Gypsies Vinyl album.
This will keep me busy for a long while. Thanks!
To me it looks like you have long fingers, especially the ring and pinky finger, which Hendrix also had. For those of us not blessed like that, it's also hard to wrap the thumb over the top. I probably should have tried harder to learn that technique when my hands were young and pain free, but this video has inspired me to give it a go. Thanks. Also the clip where Lou Reed says Hendrix was "always playing, wherever he was, he was always playing". I bet that applies to you as well. You make it look so easy. :-)
Wonderful explain!!!! Thx man!!!!
know i understood better why he one of the biggest guitar player!!!
Cool lesson.
Saying he invented the techniques or playing is a bit of an overstatement tho. He didn't invent anything technique wise, but style wise he brought double stops from country, harmony from the blues and the self accompaniment from classical guitar to a mainstream style at the time. Bringing awareness to those elements. I wouldn't be surprised if he used to practice alone for long periods of time. His influence is undeniable anyway.
Well, you sure as anything nailed Dolly Dagger! Great job!
Very impressive, thanks!
Love it...you are very good at moving around the board quickly, nice
Been watching a bunch of your vids today man, you tear it right on up! Glad to see it building up on here for you. All my best.
Excellent lesson... Thank you...
You’re annoyingly good. Love hearing you play, man! Excellent.
The Hendrix e-chord is the chord you learn after you learn all the open chords. It's the gateway to the world of guitar.
Ohk now I really love Hendrix.....
Jimi's genius is unmatchable
Didn’t realize why I FELT his music! Now I know! Hey Thanks for sharing your knowledge 👍👏👏👏
You're most welcome John, thanks for taking the time to comment! best to you!
You really delivered on this video lesson. Thanks!
