    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!

    • @acpg
      @acpg  4 года назад +3

      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.

    "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.

    • @fabiopunk1661
      @fabiopunk1661 4 года назад

      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....

  • @SSRT_JubyDuby8742
    @SSRT_JubyDuby8742 4 года назад

    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. 😎🎙🎸✅

  • @philippfinke458

      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!

    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 !
