Tim, you are a gift to guitarists of all types and abilities. Thank you for sharing your vast knowledge with us in such a wonderful, pleasant way. You are the Bob Ross of the guitar. You make all of us believe we can.
I love watching great players trying a different technique and struggling a bit. One of my favorite things about music/playing an instrument is you never stop learning, there's infinite directions to grow and evolve as a player/writer. It's just amazing
So cool to see Tim learn new stuff, he is like a kid on Christmas morning and his face just lights up. Tim is so cool! Thanks for this guys, it was amazing.
Hard to believe that there's anybody that could teach Tim anything at all, but Allen Hinds is superb, like Jordi Savall, Hesperion XX superb. What a beautiful piece of video.
Tim, thanks for being such a humble dude. Despite your huge resume and career, you allow other players to get their spotlight. That's a great quality, brother. Enjoyed it. Allen has a great touch.
Oh jeez, so good to see these masterful musicians swapping licks and being joyful. and yes I recently discovered Allen's solo work and really enjoying his expressive playing.
This is awesome. I'm a lame guitarist who has never even got into the groove of what's possible in fixed positions and I have to say I consider my mind BLOWN. THANK YOU.
And there it is…..”that little nugget” those are the type of priceless things one learns within the incubator at git. The 3 note major and minor arpeggios that take you all over between chords and scale shapes
Tim thanks for not editing out that third pattern where you kept dropping a note. And thanks for bringing Allen Hinds around. I play a lot like he does and it challenged me to some new approaches.
Hi Tim, I'm always looking forward to your new videos! Great stuff! Thanks also for being so humble to invite friends of yours who master particular techniques even better than you do! Very comforting to learn that's possible :-)! Valuable lesson in life, even more important than being able to play the guitar better after this video! Thanks again!
Tim, I love your man cave. Still working on mine. Hopefully one day it will resemble yours. Thanks for all the inspiring and informative videos you share...
If you liked the jam in the beginning, check out Fly South. You can definitely hear some Scott Henderson influence. Been listening to it since this post. Excellent stuff. Rock/jazz with just enough nod to fusion to be sophisticated but not enough to be esoteric.
Visualizing the fretboard as one big pattern...it's very much like saying the absence of any distinct pattern is the presence of every possible pattern.
It never fails to amaze me that no matter how long you've been playing, when you encounter some new idea it takes awhile to get it under your fingers and at that moment it sounds like you've been playing guitar for 5 minutes and not 50 years!! lol!
So good to see vulnerability without ego, so rare in the pissing contest that musical entertainment often is... I'm glad that there is so much that I don't know..
Hi Tim, very good video, as always! I have one question. When you practice the motive building exercise. Do you think of concrete notes while playing or do you think about shapes in which your fingers are moving? My "problem" is, that the unconscious "motoric" part of my brain takes over very quick and then I do not really think about notes. What would you recommend? Thanks! Marc
god - i am confused on how to practice this? can someone explain it? i am asking about the motif part of the discussion. The text on the screen is confusing me and I just can't seem to follow.
Brian Dickson I did, I think it's years of everyday practise tbh. Players of this calibre seem to have a reverence and respect for the instrument that imbues a reiki like economy of touch. I'm going to try and meditate for a few mins prior to practice from now on :-)
I've been playing loose guitar for a number of years, familiar with keys, chords, transparency of the neck.. I enjoy learning jazz chords+ diverse progression. I'm not so in tune with scales, intervals and general theory. Where would be the best place to start? I feel like I've come in and out of challenging myself with copying what I can see but not fully being able to understand it. What would one suggest?
start with the pentatonic scale in "A",learn all positions of this scale from the first fret to the 22nd. try to memorize were all of your "A" notes are all the way up the neck.you need to spend some serious time on this but you will know and master the fretboard if you are diligent.after you do the pentatonic scale,do the exact same thing with the major or minor scale in "A".after mastering it in "A" move to the other notes.
It's funny the most amazing players always seem so giving and so modest and yet they are ridiculously good... humbling lesson.... wow.

That's what I most liked in this video as well!
Hard to believe that there's anybody that could teach Tim anything at all, but Allen Hinds is superb, like Jordi Savall, Hesperion XX superb. What a beautiful piece of video.
Watching Tim struggle a little with these licks is HUGELY encouraging to me. We all have to learn...
Generous, gifted and humble. Both teacher and student. Always enjoy Tim's videos and his choice in guests is impeccable.
I love the video, i love Allen style and i love the Tim generosity.This guys makes we love the instrument.Thanks Tim.
Tim's humility is very endearing.

Allen has an incredible tone. his fretting hand is incredible smooth
This is awesome. I'm a lame guitarist who has never even got into the groove of what's possible in fixed positions and I have to say I consider my mind BLOWN. THANK YOU.
Love seeing two greats dispensing their wisdom to us mere mortals. Looks like a new warm-up exercise to incorporate into the daily jam.
I can't believe I've never heard of Allen. Awesome player!
Corvette 😳
Wow! Worldclass lesson by worldclass players! Thanks guys.
Saw Allen with Gino Vannelli some ten years ago - great sounding, tasteful player! Thanks for this!
Love this video! Allen’s teaching is fantastic!
Nice video guys!!! I took some lessons with Joe Diorio as well!!! ha ha!
What a cool little mini lesson with great ideas. Thanks Tim and Allen.
And there it is…..”that little nugget” those are the type of priceless things one learns within the incubator at git. The 3 note major and minor arpeggios that take you all over between chords and scale shapes
Great video, lovely guitar sounds and picking from Allen. Pleasure to listen too. Thanks Tim for making the video and sharing with us all
Tim thanks for not editing out that third pattern where you kept dropping a note. And thanks for bringing Allen Hinds around. I play a lot like he does and it challenged me to some new approaches.
I SO want to own this concept. Thank you for giving me weeks worth of material to work on from a nine minute fifty-one second video!
Hi Tim,
I'm always looking forward to your new videos! Great stuff!
Thanks also for being so humble to invite friends of yours who master particular techniques even better than you do! Very comforting to learn that's possible :-)! Valuable lesson in life, even more important than being able to play the guitar better after this video! Thanks again!
Just wow ... my minds just been blown away !
imagine sitting in a room with these 2 heavyweights with the most awseome tones and licks, that sound like heaven to me🙏
Tim, I love your man cave. Still working on mine. Hopefully one day it will resemble yours. Thanks for all the inspiring and informative videos you share...
these are tools he uses for his job that he is paid to do
Thank you for this video... Tim and Allen... great post!
Thanks for the lesson. That's my weekend.
This is a fantastic video……you are not making an ass out of yourself, learning new ideas is not easy.
Thanks for the lesson guys! Lots of ways to combine and manipulate these concepts to make fluid melodies!
Thanks Tim and Allen for a great lesson.
Tad.
allen has a magic touch!!!
Mind = blown. another great lesson video!
You and Pete Thorn should interview him for "Tim and Pete's Guitar Show"... :)
Yes, please!
Kristof Neyens Guitar abdolutelty his new record is outstanding
I was thinking the same thing , Allen would be a great guest on the show!!
Awesome video thanks Tim and Allen....
I love how quiet Allen's left hand is. Barely lifted off the fretboard.
Absolutely amazing ! he seems not to move his fingers ! a bit like Robben too
Hinds....You are a GENIVS !!
Graphic charts would be helpful for me here. Amazing stuff, thanks.
Awesome skills. Sounds fantastic!
If you liked the jam in the beginning, check out Fly South. You can definitely hear some Scott Henderson influence. Been listening to it since this post. Excellent stuff. Rock/jazz with just enough nod to fusion to be sophisticated but not enough to be esoteric.
Tim that was " EPIC "
That was beautiful!
lots of truly useful info here! thanks dudes!
Thank you so much Truely eye opening.
fantastic video! thanks so much
my two favorites!
Visualizing the fretboard as one big pattern...it's very much like saying the absence of any distinct pattern is the presence of every possible pattern.
That Xotic's neck has got to be one of the most beautiful I've ever seen.
It never fails to amaze me that no matter how long you've been playing, when you encounter some new idea it takes awhile to get it under your fingers and at that moment it sounds like you've been playing guitar for 5 minutes and not 50 years!! lol!
Great stuff. Allen makes it seem so easy. Not fair! :)
日本語で失礼します。フレイズが、流れるような独特アレン特有の弾き方ですよね、ベリーナイス🎉🎉🎉
I feel like I should write somebody a check just for that motif exercise!
Killer insight.
Good stuff, guys!
Thanks for sharing Tim. Allen is one of my favorites. Do y'all get to talk about his Red Plate amps any in the extended video?
Thx:) Awesome lesson
That is a great exercise
Superb!
Thank you!!!
Wonderful! Someone get this man a RUclips channel :-)
So good to see vulnerability without ego, so rare in the pissing contest that musical entertainment often is... I'm glad that there is so much that I don't know..
Great video!
@0:41 my mind has just been blown
Sounds like a Jeff Beck disciple. Good stuff!!!
Alan Hinds is my favorite guitar player of the last few brain cells remaining.
He makes it look waaay too easy. Amazing player!
Absolutely mind boggling
2.53 sounds like Edvard Grieg - Peer Gynt Suite Nr. 1 if you play it up and down ;o) Nice!
Allen Hinds destroys!
where is the longer interview?
hey Tim great tutorial !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What kind of computer doyouhave ?
Good old Alan 👍😊🇸🇪
Tim the exercise allen did in the key of D, I dont quite get it.
It starts on the D? But on the 5th string?
Hi Tim, very good video, as always! I have one question. When you practice the motive building exercise. Do you think of concrete notes while playing or do you think about shapes in which your fingers are moving? My "problem" is, that the unconscious "motoric" part of my brain takes over very quick and then I do not really think about notes. What would you recommend? Thanks! Marc
Yeah that's a masterclass allright...
Good stuff :)
Can't quite catch the first name he mentions at 6:54 - can anyone make out what he says?
guessing Allan Holdsworth
Awesome! Hey Tim what amp you guys are using?
Wow a tab on this would help big time
god - i am confused on how to practice this? can someone explain it? i am asking about the motif part of the discussion. The text on the screen is confusing me and I just can't seem to follow.
Basically, make up a small 4 or 4 note melody and practice that melodic shape starting from each note of the scale
What pickups does he use on this blue guitar?
I wish I had Motif...
only play sweet delicious notes!
"Yeah, I cheated and did something easier." You and me both Tim... you and me both.
Did nobody notice Allen Hinds' AWESOME picking hand technique 'finger style'. That kind of subtlety in string picking, must take years of practice
Brian Dickson I did, I think it's years of everyday practise tbh. Players of this calibre seem to have a reverence and respect for the instrument that imbues a reiki like economy of touch. I'm going to try and meditate for a few mins prior to practice from now on :-)

9:35 he was surprised warming up made for a better performance ?
Does he even use a pick??
Guitar lesson....🤣😂
Nice, but this is Michael Landau style.
