Hi Tory, does the guide show any right hand exercises/scales/technique,etc? Or is it just how to setup the guitar for tapping? Thx , I just noticed the table of contents.
Hey Tory. Unfortunately that link doesn’t work anymore and I’m very interested in how you set up the guitar to make such fluid playing and your clear sound possible. I’ve been trying to learn the mostly hammer on style and I struggle with it without knowing it’s realistic on my guitars. Do you think any of the Salen or Strandberg guitars would do it? I’ve been salivating over the Salen jazz models a lot or one with a tremolo but they don’t all have the carbon fiber reinforcement that you said helped a lot. Is that a requirement to make it easier or just to maintain the neck tension? Do you think you could do all that on like the Salen jazz out of the box?
This channel deserves more subscribers
🧞 I'm going to rub this here genie lamp....
@@TorySlusher The RUclips genie lamp at the moment, seems to involve faux sincere reaction videos to popular songs. So maybe you could do a series of Jazz reaction videos, with a constant surprised facial expression of seemingly gushing praise for every aspect no matter how good or bad. Cue fans of said songs saying how wonderful and clever you are etc. It's a winning if somewhat depressing formula!
Keep sharing stuff Justin.
WHO ELSE CAN PLAY LIKE THAT??
Just stay healthy and never stop, please Tory? I have played for 65 years. If you are this inspiring, then I will live another 30 years just to hear you then! Yes... the last little gift was transportive. My wife, Diane, and I were in a quiet tiny club in Newport Beach Ca, 1980, An older Ben Hall looked at me and could tell I was fixed on his every move... just like now, I will not forget one moment of the gift you just shared. I know the work.
Dang!!! Jim Hall... LOL... after all, I am 70, it's excusable. And I will be 100 when I listen to you then!
Just because you said that, I'll do it 😊
Good grief. How is this video not more widely known.
“Sometime you have to choose between being a virtuoso and a composer” Not for me! I’ve avoided that problem well by being neither 😎
😆
The level of talent and innovation you show us is freakish. Awesome in the purest sense of the word.
Way good, Tori....thanks for this one, and hope you and yours are doing great.
I've recently discovered this channel and you are totally awesome. Will take many notes while watching.
Thanks Tory
I know is old video you posted.
Personality I use improvise or fast thinker as you developed you left and right hands 🙌
I developed phrases over cord and scales left the theory for a wile and exercise my brain coordination with hands.
I never use pick since I started play guitar .
But yes all your theory will help me develop more in my play.
Thanks again❤
Tory Slusher is right up there with the ranks of the greats like Alan Holdsworth
You're something else. Can't wait to see you take off to outer space. Applaud your skill and your humble personality. Forever a fan of yours.
😊☺️
Out of this world, like the poster behind
Years ago my daughter bought me a front row seat to see Stanley Jordan for my birthday - THANK YOU TORI for bringing this musical awareness possibilities back to the masses thru the internet medium -- 😊
WHAT A GIFT,YOU HAVE.
You've opened my eyes to new dimensions I want to explore
Very interesting story about Liszt setting his practice piano up with a high action - thank you! Very scholarly of you. Pianists actually have to be concerned with injury too, traditionally from playing too loud to compete with drums and brass, then amps. I have short pinkies and they definitely kept me from mastering any Liszt growing up and at age 67 they have taken a beating over the years. I had to learn to lighten my touch a lot, for two reasons: longevity and musicality. I've had solo piano gigs where I've had to play a huge grand close to tables of diners and keep the volume whisper quiet. That is a workout of a different sort, playing to the bottom of the key bed at a soft volume all night.
What you say about having to choose between being a virtuoso soloist and being a composer is very true. My whole life I wanted to be Steve Morse, Allan Holdsworth and Eric Johnson rolled into one. But every time I pick up the instrument, I immediately start noodling compositionally because I hear fragments of song straight away, which I then plunge deeper into, carefully tracing the chord shapes, melodies and picking patterns I've stumbled upon which are clearly part of a song just waiting to be uncovered. Writing songs is like excavation for me. It is very deeply satisfying when I catch a good one. Still, my frustration at being inept at soloing continues...
There's so many options that is a skill or a gift just being able to quiet your mind enough to choose one of them.
@@TorySlusher It's also a gift being able to see / hear those possibilities.
Wow, just wow
Heroic guitar! 😶🌫Interesting ideas and insight too 👩🔬
Simply amazing to get a glimpse into how you approach this instrument. Thank you for sharing this!
I am a fan, love the way u play, love the way u think, love the way u speak, love the way u teach, thank you very much.
🫡
Speechless, watch some of your video, and ehmm…just so amazing, inspirational, and really want to pick up guitar again…thank you so much!!!
Damn trail out jam is the business. You need to be in Guitar World.
Well, I did make it into your publication, ☺️
Your playing is absolutely inspirational
It is a joy to hear you play.
Thank you very much
Awesome! Stanley Jordan would be proud of you! New subscriber here! Keep the great work up!
Thanks, but to be honest, I really give a s*** what Stanley Jordan thinks, LOL
@@TorySlusher Alright, fine. I didn´t mean to imply that you need his approval or blessing. I tried to say that you are excellent, at the thing he is the very and undisputable best. Anyway, cheers!
I feel that apart from the main topic, you are incredible and I can't stop watching how you improvise with so much knowledge
Wow, amazing playing and sound of your guitar. I first got introduced to tapping by Stanley Jordan playing Elenor Rigby which blew me away. I spent years studying tapping and trying to use all eight fingers. Ended up getting by right hand crushed 21 years back which killed my playing, but still manage to tap a little with two fingers on right hand. I love using tapping for ambient guitar now, playing nice chords and slow tapping. I have always liked the difference in how the right hand sounds when tapping compared to hammering with left.
Really enjoyed your video. All the best
Mind boggling
Play Live !!!! Would like to see you in concert.
So good!
"Unless your a genius"! If you aren't one , you are definitely knockin on the door!
ah, you are too kind
14:33 that's the smile Leonardo would be painting today.
Just trying to imagine what the FIRST blues lick played with the right hand was where the light bulb went off like " this will work!"
I discovered You lately so maybe You already coverd that but... You only hammer on? not pulling off? Damn, Your're so good at counterpoint it makes me cry!
thnx. ...uh, no, I do pull offs too, actually both, but depending on the situation for the tone and/or speed at which the phrase is done.
@@TorySlusher watching again this video with a lil' more practice... Dealing with "the different vocabulary" between the two hands: when You play arpeggios with right hand only, looks like You use diagonal trajectories, right? Also, do You have (if any) preferences for 3 or 4 notes per string for scales fingerings, particularly with chromatic passage notes? Tanx in advance for replying 🙂😊
“So, There You Go!” From a freakin’ genius!!😂. I’m in love😅
incredible skill
Been watching a few weeks. I freaking love you!! That's all.
☺️
Just so you know whenever I start following a channel it’s not long after it will have 1 million subscribers😊
Well well, come right on in then! ☺️
@@TorySlusher your playing is genius and I love how you are just yourself not trying to be anything else.
Bad ass!! amazing musicality...yur going to explode...
Eddie VH's lost child :) 😄
this is so cool
Thank you.
She’s amazing, WOW!
I love the poster!)))
This is great stuff. I don't see enough people playing Stanley Jordan style.
Myself I seem to end up mixing fingerstyle playing with some right-hand tapping more often than not.
Is the setup guide available as a PDF?
It actually is a PDF. I do the same thing, I basically mix the tapping and fingerstyle.
Where are you playing live?
I was considering this recently, maybe shooting like a little live concert, probably in Akron or Cleveland at some point here...
Do Cincinnati for concert, maybe open for one of famous older rock bands. Then, they will get up plugged with representation. I’ll leave message for Rick Rubin to see what he can do.
Beautiful 💯
❤ What else can I say? ❤️
Amazing Guitarplayer 👍
I’ve watched through this three times now, first five minutes anyway. I like what you said about Master class pianist, (the guy practiced piano, hard to play piano). (Resistance training?) . Is it best to practice right handed taps with (guitar on your lap?) I do taps already with arpeggios on my index, middle finger tap especially maj7 s .In Bmin 7 I’ll tap D maj 7. Nothing fancy. Compared to what you’re doing
I wouldn't change position for anything, just basically practice everything in your normal playing position.
Beyond amazing. Would you please discuss your tone from the amplifier? Is that bridge pickup thing at the heart of it? Thank you, greetings from Boxford, MA.
It's just the neck pickup. Only use a boss gp10 directly into the computer.
👍👍👍👍👍
Do you use a compressor pedal? What is your chain that gets so much sustained clean tone from the tapping?
Yeah, so I use a little bit but it's only like 20 or 30%, any more than that and you end up with a lot of annoying noise and janky haptic feedback. It comes from two things, finger based tone production / control and setting your pickups the correct way for this... As is what is found in my guide that I'm selling.... Basically higher towards the trouble and lower towards the bass. 5591ad.myshopify.com/products/how-to-setup-and-or-optimize-your-guitar-for-two-handed-tapping-the-complete-guide
Tory, do you have friendship with any of the older jazzists like Scofield, Stanley Jordan or Guthrie Govan or whatever well known "heros"? Does Rick Beato know u?
Not really. I mean I feel like I know them through their music, but not personally.
@@TorySlusher never felt u wanna have some kinda musical friendship coowork with any of ur 'heros' (if u have)? Btw, who is/are ur fav guitarists?
❤️
lol, can we please get a video of you playing a left handed guitar?
question
if you play acoustic guitar,
are you still able to get enough volume by right hand tapping style?
by the way I really enjoy your video
I came from your
how to craft jazz line video
I do like playing acoustic, although it's usually just fingerstyle. With that being said, I've only really seen two different acoustic guitars which allowed me to do any tapping... So believe it or not some of the good Martins will allow you to do a lot of stuff up to a certain point... But probably the best acoustic I've ever seen for this was this random Epiphone sort of masterbuilt or Master series retro sort of a hollow body acoustic, that one you could just tap on it and it would actually ring out and speak sort of like an electric guitar, I imagine with some tweaking probably would work great.
it would be cool if you wrote a piece using standard jazz chords,and incorporating tapping in the melody. If it could be done with a slightly cleaner sound it would be unique. If you have done something like this already,forgive me. I am new to your channel🥰
Well, I kind of do it all the time. Right off the top of my head, look up "sideways shuffle" or "pyramids on the moon".
Tory, I meant to ask you which Roland synth pick-up that is, whether Strandberg will outfit the guitar with it, and which synth you're using for your guitar?
It is the gk3, in tandem with the Boss GP 10 (which is not really a "synth"-synth, but V-guitar stuff). ...and no, Strandberg typically doesn't install that kind of thing.
Is there a good scale run that I can practice to learn to tap that way? I can do some 1,2, & 3 finger stuff but, nothing that sounds like the scales that you shred . thx
Major. It is the most used, necessary
@@TorySlusher Ok, I'll try that.thank you for your reply.
she's fantastic i fell in love with her
U ve gone much further than St Jordan
I much prefer Tory to Stanley Jordan, as IMHO she is far more musically interesting.
@@EgoShredder 100% agreed
I got to see SJ live at the Iridium in NYC (a smallish club), and he stretched harmonically much further than on his recordings. I would not underestimate his abilities (cannot believe I had to say that). Of course Tory Slusher is great as well - too bad it is not likely we can see her in a live setting anytime soon.
@@sakuraorigami Tory is a 'one person band' , would be difficult to follow her timing:)
She is next level, maybe better than Stanley Jordan. I just don’t understand why they go to the next level with the instrument and begin playing a Chapman stick?
.... Because they get it in their head that they need a large amount of low range... And then they end up playing basically bass parts the rest of their career
What are your settings, do you use compression ? It seems that the notes ring out without a lot of effort even with the synth.
It's actually not a lot of compression, it has to do with the nature of the carbon fiber neck and how low you can get the action. Also, having to pick up lower for the lower strings and closer for the higher strings, which naturally balances out the differences in volume, etc.
Can you play guitar lefty, too?
Probably not
What tuning are you using there buddy
I only use standard
I thought it was not standard because when I would slow the video down to try to figure out what the right hand was doing, my notes weren't sounding right. I wish that there was a good book or video showing some fun licks/runs/exercises. The only videos that I see available are not as exciting as your playing.
I knew and like Stanley Jordan since 90's but sorry to say that you're more skillful than him.
Thanks, but I don't really like to compare musicians, sometimes I do, but only when I feel like they deserve it...
