We’ll done Sir 🙏🏼 The highest accolades to you. Thank you. As a kid I was into Led Zeppelin, etc… then in my late teens early 20s I heard T-bone. Blew my head off my shoulders. Thank you for getting me closer to that. Blessings to you and yours. Good health, prosperity, joy to you in 2022. Thank you
Im using a couple of TBones chords now..He was one of my favorites from out of the past..Cool unique chords he played for sure..Thank you brother for bringing it..Great video..Keep em' coming....
I admired the way that he pulled himself out of mistakes... a smooth caddy can slide on out without people noticing too much.--> As for us when we make a mistake we instantly start to dig looking for a way out.... I'm starting to learn how to slip slide out better.
This was even better than the Hendrix video. Did we learn anything ? You explain the why and how and that's the difference between telling and teaching. That 1/2 step approach is fundamental to walking bass too. A jazz fundamental. Keep it up man , this is incredible stuff ! Not to mention that Lester sounds sweeeeet.
You won my instant respect once I noticed the 'Blueprint' record on the wall behind you. 'Unmilitary Two-Step' is the song I'm learning to play at the moment. Rory is my favorite electric blue guitarist! Great video and very helpful. Liked and subscribed.
Awesome playing man, really cool. I think the b chord is an insinuated 2 chord which as you know is crucial to the turnaround in jazz. 1-6-2-5 simplified to 2-5-1 to 2-5 and finally where 2 is 5, if that makes sense 😅 and dude I had no idea you played as this is the first time I’ve seen this forum but know the firearm one. You’re the best Eric!
Erik, I just found this channel. This is gold for us guitarists! Thanks! Could you possibly tell me how that SG guitar in your video sounded like P 90s or almost like a coil tapped humbucker?
Cool stuff Eric. You and I have a lot in common. Been a gigging guitar player for 40 years and a shooter even longer. Wish I lived closer, would love a jam and shoot. That Les Paul looks like the one John who ran the Vanderbilly guitar site sold a few years back. I used to do online lessons there. The minor7b5 was a T Bone staple. Wholetone riffs work nice over that augmented chord.
Eric - I can’t tell you how many times I’ve come back to this. Thank you so much for doing this. You were really on your game for this one. This video totally. Thank you. I have a question about the calluses.? It’s a bit challenging. I can play… RATT , Steve Stevens stuff all day. But I love T-bone Walker. I think the sliding back-and-forth is hard on my fingers. Do you have any TIPS?
Aye aye Cap’n. I especially enjoy your linguistic delivery on this video. Inspiring! It’s clear that you love T-bone as much or more than the rest of us and it really shows. For now I’ll play a simple, slow blues without walking up and down. That sliding around is tough on my fingers man.
Your lingo midway through the 11 minute mark is so insightful the way you delivered it. Opens doors in my mind as far as the purpose of the court voicings. I’m sure with practice. I will also incorporate this into my approach to the guitar. Thanks again Erik.
I was writing this sentence "Never knew Iraqiveteran888 could play guitar" as a joke, but it's him!!!!1. I've been playing T-Bone Walker style blues just for decades in fact just as long as I'm watching his gun videos! This is weird but so fucking briljant!
Hello and thank you,that is indeed a very important lesson ,hopefully i already know a couple of chords there ,but still it has been a relief when i discovered i already knew the Bmin6 add 9 ,i was trying to do it with my thumb when a big smile came ,because there 's a lot tpo learn here , T Bone Walker' s records are something i play on since many years now ,"evenin" is one of my favourite songs ,and that is true that you going to find yourself moving a chord sometimes all along the neck ,T Bone 's style is something between jazz and blues ,i li,ke to play with him as he doesn't solo all the time ,he has that very special style and a beautifull and inspiring voice ...... The Bmin6 add 9 is going to have a new name if you play it at the sercond or third fret etc lol ,but in a middle of a solo if you go back on the G for instance and you play this chord with a little tremolo bar at the end ,a sweet one ,and you are in SRV territory ,i am happy to see that T Bone used this chord many years before him ,i think Stevie uses a lot of T Bone's struff in his rockabilly solos too(i -suppose-so) ,i personnally stole that chord from Stevie ,but mostly with my eyes lol ...... I use "he is doing" not "he was doing" respectfully ,these guys are gone but their music is alive ....
Hi. Thx a lot for the lesson. It was super great. However, I got confused at 6.45 when you say it is an A7 add 9 chord. In my world it is an A9 and some seconds later you say it is a D7 add 9 chord. In my world it is a D9.
hi eric , thanks ,that's great .i'm discovering T BONE thats great and most helpfull.Now i just have to decipher the little soloing part . please do some more !
Bone wasn’t using his thumb or play with his bare fingers at all. He used a pick and had a pretty heavy attack too. With that said , nothing wrong with your approach. Great video otherwise.

Love TBone. I never knew how to play those T Bone Walker chords. Thanks
Good stuff. Watched this over oatmeal and coffee and learned a handful of useful things. Most productive I’ll be all day….
Im using a couple of TBones chords now..He was one of my favorites from out of the past..Cool unique chords he played for sure..Thank you brother for bringing it..Great video..Keep em' coming....
T bone was the man! And so are you ! Thank you so much. Best lesson on T bone I have ever seen!
hehe, starting to like the sound of this Les Paul

Good to see you can play and shoot I am also a big time T-Bone fan.
T-Bone's approach really livens up the blues.
Best teaching on T-Bone I’ve seen so far. Nice jamming. Good for you thaks.
Love t-bone and this helps me a lot, thanks
Thanks man. I love T-bone Walker.He sounds like no-one else.
Eric this was awesome man, well done on explaining the augmented and minor resolutions in T-Bones’ masterpieces - Keep it up!
You won my instant respect once I noticed the 'Blueprint' record on the wall behind you. 'Unmilitary Two-Step' is the song I'm learning to play at the moment. Rory is my favorite electric blue guitarist!
Great video and very helpful. Liked and subscribed.
That Bm6/8 is that chord but its also an E9 chord witha 5th on top- -so the second imversion of an E)- thats why it works
Super lesson. Taking us to the roots of the blues.
Ths is quite far from the roots of the blues. The roots of the blues are not electrified.
The best T-Bone technique video Ive seen so far! Excellent!!!!
I really needed this lesson. Thank goodness I found your channel! Cheers
Really enjoyed watching this. Now I know … T bone Walker! Tnx
wow. amazing teaching and amazing playing.
I really enjoyed this video. I've been doing T-bone Walker chords for years and didn't know it!
Such a good lesson. Thank you so much.
Humongous BB King guy 🤣🤣
Dude, that's one hellava great guitar lesson in blues 👍
Thank you… nice overview video.
Very cool lesson, well done !
Great lesson. I subscribed after the intro! Thank you!
Awesome playing man, really cool.

Pretty informative video, Thanks for sharing Eric!
Hey. We need more of this FROM YOU!!! thanks

Dude, love what you are doing.
Man these sound SO good. I’m gonna steal some of these chords lol
wow , just going down a jump blues rabbit hole, and here's eric himself.....long way from Moss Pawn
Great lesson. Thank you✌
Yesssssssss, thanks a bunch Eric. Need more lessons. I need to suck less, shred more lol!
Great lesson. Thanks so much 🖖🏻🎸

Great video about a Blues Master.
You play it badass.
If you come to Jacksonville Florida you need to come play!
Great video! Thanks a lot!
good stuff man

Thanks for this info, appreciate you sharing your knowledge!
Your set up sounds great 👍
Excelente! Muchas gracias maestro, entendí casi todo :)
Thanks for the lesson. Out of curiosity, what is the album on the far right on the wall; the title is obscured by the guitar neck. Thanks.
I was writing this sentence "Never knew Iraqiveteran888 could play guitar" as a joke, but it's him!!!!1. I've been playing T-Bone Walker style blues just for decades in fact just as long as I'm watching his gun videos! This is weird but so fucking briljant!
We agree on Benellis, we agree on Gibsons. Right on.
Great lesson ♠️
Great playing brother! Woo hoo
Bravo
That was a cheeky little burner in the intro! Nice vibrato too :)
(Iraqveteran...I mean.....you sent me here)
thank you
very good!
Thans a lot
Hello and thank you,that is indeed a very important lesson ,hopefully i already know a couple of chords there ,but still it has been a relief when i discovered i already knew the Bmin6 add 9 ,i was trying to do it with my thumb when a big smile came ,because there 's a lot tpo learn here ,
T Bone Walker' s records are something i play on since many years now ,"evenin" is one of my favourite songs ,and that is true that you going to find yourself moving a chord sometimes all along the neck ,T Bone 's style is something between jazz and blues ,i li,ke to play with him as he doesn't solo all the time ,he has that very special style and a beautifull and inspiring voice ......
The Bmin6 add 9 is going to have a new name if you play it at the sercond or third fret etc lol ,but in a middle of a solo if you go back on the G for instance and you play this chord with a little tremolo bar at the end ,a sweet one ,and you are in SRV territory ,i am happy to see that T Bone used this chord many years before him ,i think Stevie uses a lot of T Bone's struff in his rockabilly solos too(i -suppose-so) ,i personnally stole that chord from Stevie ,but mostly with my eyes lol ......

Hi. Thx a lot for the lesson. It was super great. However, I got confused at 6.45 when you say it is an A7 add 9 chord. In my world it is an A9 and some seconds later you say it is a D7 add 9 chord. In my world it is a D9.
Nice video. That deluxe sounds great. What year is it?
1972
We get it
Nice work, but I think your Bmin6add9 is just a Bmin6, because there is not 9 or C# in your chord fingering. Am I wrong?
From Moss Pawn and Gun? Sweet player my man! And the guitar is pretty as well! Ever come across a Godin Montreal Premier Ltd in desert green?
Next month i will buy my first ar15 Afedarm guitar🇵🇱❤🇺🇸
called A9, no "add 9" or C#m7b5 or Emin6. Ideas good, though
Damn my dog you have the blues so bad! Been really diggin' some Tbone lately and glad you have given me some things to work on! Keep jammin' brother!
You guys need to run a college course on blues history or something lol. I'm going to have to try this out next I'm I play.
T-Bone Walker'ish crossover with modern Blues Rock phrasing ?
wew man you are legit
yes humbuckers finalmente
hi eric , thanks ,that's great .i'm discovering T BONE thats great and most helpfull.Now i just have to decipher the little soloing part . please do some more !
T-Bone would never play that. But nice progression.
16:00
That's one sexy Les Paul.
🐩
Bone wasn’t using his thumb or play with his bare fingers at all. He used a pick and had a pretty heavy attack too. With that said , nothing wrong with your approach. Great video otherwise.
Wait a minute wait a minute wait a minute….hold on……..is this iraqveteran8888?
Bro you look just like this dude that has a firearm channel. Iraqveteran8888
Less jibber jabber please
Wish I could get a condensed version of this video without the endless and distracting commentary
Are you going to be doing new lessons? Or have content elsewhere? Your a good teacher.
Erik, I just found this channel. This is gold for us guitarists! Thanks! Could you possibly tell me how that SG guitar in your video sounded like P 90s or almost like a coil tapped humbucker?
