Hey everybody! I really appreciate all of the kind words/support on this lesson and the others that I've been doing for Guitar World. There are so many great players out there, it's humbling and downright scary to try and teach online these days. I read a lot of comments about the tone, so thought I'd answer those here. It's just one of the house amps at Guitar World...a Marshall JVM head and 4-12 cab, with a boss DD-5 delay pedal in the loop...that's it! Thanks again for checking this out!
hi joel :)
You rock so hard! Thanks for showing us this shit!
joel hoekstra really enjoy your pentitonic lessons
Keep making these videos man. Your technique and phrasing are awesome.
Awesome personality and talent!!! Thank YOU, kind Sir!!!!
Joel pretty much knows exactly what to play to sound like a total rock star. The guy is insane!
100% agreed! Absolute amazing tone and feel.
it really helps when your fingers are 10 inches long like Joel's are!
+muchomusiclibre Yep. Not much help to those of us with stubby digits!
+ShaggyDawg exactly man. Have you seen Bucketheads fingers? they're as long on drum sticks!
+muchomusiclibre It's all about practice.. look up Andres Segovia, a well known classical guitarist. Small hands but that did not stop him from playing compositions with extreme stretches (which are even harder to do on classical guitar because of the higher action)
I am not a guitarist, but I watched it full just because I like this guy for his humility. Great guitarist & a very nice human being.
what a killer tone!!!!
tu q jot0
Qué pedo!? Qué haces acá bro!?
The brass nut probably helps there.
Yup!
Dude, there must be something wrong with your ears! This tone sounds like a untweaked Line 6 Pod.
O. My. Goodness. That tone, guitar, and totally awesome and courteous rockstar attitude. Bro.
More of this guy please! He is awesome!
My wife dragged me to see Cher in Vegas, What a surprise to see Joel come out on guitar. He rocked! Great show man!
Joel hokestra. Shreds it on. And makes beatiful meaning solos. His knowledge of the scales and notes ans creativity is awesome. A very rounded. Complete. Rock guitar player. He shredded the frick off in rock in rio. Guy is an awesome musician and a great guy.
Joel Hoekstra: “Ok?”
Me:
It's simply an honor to even watch him give a lesson, knowing the fact that such musicians are from times when real music existed and melodies mattered. These are the guitarists/musicians which truly define a band/writing skills/arrangement. Its truly humbling to see how grounded they are. Cheers!
I wish I had a professor like him. He's one of the coolest guys on Earth.
He's not only an amazing player, he's got an amazing TONE as well.
What a great lesson, can't wait to start working on it. Thank you Mr. Hoekstra
Joel threw a pick to me tonight at the Transiberian Orchestra in Cincinnati and I got it! that was Awesome! I held it up to show him I got it while he was playing a solo
Very COOL runs!! THANK YOU for sharing!! 🤘🎸🤘
Hey Joel,i’ve been playing for over 20 years and after having just discovered you through the current Whitesnake album i gotta say you are my favourite player right now.You rock🤘🏻
Beautiful smooth licks Joel, thanks for sharing those pentatonic runs, I’m definitely going to try them
fantastic lesson! thanks for posting!
a free lesson from a master shedder? ...happy new year indeed!
That was a great lesson! Thanks so much, gonna apply it to some major pentatonic stuff too!
Wow! I never thought the pentatonic had such possibilities. really opened my mind to a new teritory. Thank you. Time to practice
What a perfect guitar tone! Like, literally perfect, specially with the bridge pickup, very few times you have the chance to listen such a beautiful guitar tone
Wow. What an outstanding lesson to help the big jump of breaking out of that pentatonic box. And what a humble dude!! That’s always a plus to help the lesson sink in. Thanks for your knowledge!!!!
Thanks Joel; not only an awesome fretboard traversing lick, but a great warmup exercise!
A great player plus a great instructor = a huge thumb up Guitar World.
Those pentatonic runs sounded AWESOME! I'll be cracking out the axe to practice them! THANKYOU sir for sharing! Big fan of Whitesnake by the way! Thanks again! 🎸😎🎸
Love that tone!
These licks sound blazing hot! Thanks for the lesson. Very inspirational.
Absolute fantastic lesson and amazing licks!
Spectacular stuff, Joel. Thank you!
Great feel and great tone!
Great exercises! Thanks for taking the time
I've always loved left hand legato to form patterns. Fantastic method! Thank you.
Joel Hoekstra deserves to be on top and receive all recognition... what a technique, what a furious grip and not a note without feeling... Master... also one of his first teachers was the extraordinary TJ Helmerich, with whom he learned this to perfection. absurd technique of 8 fingers on the fretboard... Congratulations Joel!!!
Thank you so very much Joel for the lesson I've been searching for a generous kind person like you and i found you. Thank You my friend.
Simple but very melodic - great lesson.
Thanks a lot, it rocks!!!
Great licks, Joel!
Thank you Joel! That was excellent!
Great player and so humble. Thanks for sharing your tips. Struggling with the legato but will keep trying.
Very cool lesson and I love that tone, nice Les Paul!
Groovy hippie hiya groovy hippie...I'm a groove chile myself ,grooving down the path of righteousness...
Joel is like the first person on guitar world to have good tone
+John Benoit Yeah, he nailed a great tone.

I'd never heard of this guy, then caught him by chance when I was given a free ticket to watch Whitesnake last month. He's a monster player and has tone for days! Great lesson, thanks GW.
Hoekstra is real good. Not just technically but also in a matter of feeling. His playing speaks.
Great lesson from a great player/instructor!
I like his style, he shreds in a smooth way.
Very thanks, Joel!
Amazingly Precise! ...and that Sound!
Just found the clip, such great ideas
Beautiful guitar. Nice tone.
Excellent lesson, this kind of stuff has always been a weak point for me, but the way Joel presents it makes it seem doable, and understandable. Fantastic tone as well!
