So grab your guitar, tune-up, and let’s dive into this “Ticket to Ride” guitar lesson!
Who Wrote Ticket To Ride?
"Ticket to Ride" is a classic song by the British rock band The Beatles. It was primarily written by John Lennon, with some contributions from Paul McCartney. The song was released as a single on April 9, 1965, in the United Kingdom and on April 19, 1965, in the United States. It also appeared on their album Help! which was released in August 1965.
The song was recorded at EMI Studios (now Abbey Road Studios) in London, England. It was produced by George Martin, who was the Beatles' longtime producer and collaborator.
"Ticket to Ride" was a commercial success, reaching the top of the charts in several countries, including the United Kingdom and the United States. It marked a shift in the Beatles' sound, as it featured a more pronounced rhythm and a harder edge compared to some of their earlier songs.
"Ticket to Ride" is widely regarded as one of the Beatles' classic tracks. It has been covered by numerous artists over the years and has been included in various "best of" lists and compilations of the band's greatest hits. The song's innovative use of guitar feedback and its catchy melody have contributed to its lasting popularity.
What Kind of Guitar is used on Ticket To Ride?
On "Ticket to Ride", George Harrison played a 12-string Rickenbacker 360/12 electric guitar. This specific guitar model is known for its jangly sound. This guitar has six pairs of strings, rather than the standard six strings found on most guitars.
The Rickenbacker 360/12 is often associated with the pop and folk-rock sounds of the 1960s and was favored by George Harrison for its unique sound. It creates that bright and chiming guitar sound we all hear as a hallmark of the song "Ticket to Ride" and many other Beatles tracks from that era. Harrison's use of the Rickenbacker 12-string helped define the sound of the song and also played a significant role in many other Beatles songs as well.

I saw them do it live in August '65. One of my favorite Beatles songs, Thank you!
This was the first record I ever bought as a kid. A 45 single that cost 50 cents, and I still have it.
That's awesome!!!
Iconic song and an excellent lesson. Thank you for your time and service to the guitar community at large, it’s appreciated.
George was a brilliant guitarist, and songwriter. He felt that he wasn't being utilized enough, by John and Paul.
Excellent! Beautiful Rick, by the way!
A party favorite back in ‘65
I always wanted to learn this. Great teaching. Thanks very much Jon!
The Beatles were amazing in how their music progressed from She Loves You to this great classic. Just a two year gap give or take a few months from one to the other. Jon, I love the breakdown of this great classic that you've done here. All the best!
I.M.O. The thing that set the Beatles apart was that they're songs were not Blues based. The majority of British bands started w/ Blues (but they all wanted the success of the Beatles). They were however very good at R & B. Their songs were NOT 3 chord Blues ala Chuck Berry or Bo Diddly but were advanced from most "Rock" music. More on the level of the Brill Bldg. professional songwriters (Goffin,/King. Bakarak/David, Mann & Weil, Lieber/Stoller).
@@larrywishon8084Actually, that’s not quite true-the Beatles were VERY much influenced by Chuck Berry and the blues, and they did several covers of his songs, both in studio AND in concert , including “Rock and Roll Music.” But even apart from the covers, The Beatles also wrote their own songs with Chuck Berry-like riffs and blues-type influences. It shows especially in songs like “One After 909,” which IS a 12-bar blues, and even some of their mid-period songs like “I Want Hold Your Hand” from 1964, which uses Chuck Berry-like shuffle patterns throughout the verses. Obviously, bands like The Rolling Stones were far more Blues purists than the Beatles, but the Beatles also showed quite a LOT of blues influences.
I shouldn't have used Chuck Berry as an example. What I meant to say was The Beatles songs were much more advanced than 1-4-5 (chord progression) songs like Hound Dog, La Bamba, or Louie, Louie. I.M.O. the Beatles didn't have the Black Gospel/Blues feeling like Muddy Waters, Howling Wolf or Eric Clapton. However, they COULD play & sing the Hell outta R& B. How is that? Go figure. I guess they just liked R & B more than Blues. Of course they played several styles & were influenced by other singer/writers. Mixed together in various ways their music came out as their own, fresh & new.
How easy is that...thank you. Love your tutorials.
I have a mariachi version of Sweet Home Alabama, and it's pretty fabulous.
You tube will definitely de-monetize this one.
You do know Lennon used a Strat on the recording of Ticket to Ride
Wow… Sweet Home Alabama doesn’t sound too bad on a Rickenbacker 12-string either! 😂
BOCKER ? ...................... 😂 🤣 😂

Get a life if not some manners, excuse us if we're not rock god's who can flawlessly play all three guitar parts of Free Bird simultaneously
As they say, "lighten up, Francis". There are other instructors out there if you can't handle it.
