It’s so refreshing to watch and talk about music rather than another hidden infomercial trying to sell the magic pedal. You, Buk, Guthrie and a few others are creating a nice music community. I appreciate you mate!
Man, your touch is magical, one of the first things I noticed that drew me to your playing. Acoustic or electric, it doesn’t matter, it’s like as soon as you put your hands on a guitar it starts breathing and comes to life, like a living, flowing thing under your touch. Energy, as you say. Thanks for breaking down just a couple crucial bits of it for us.
Beautiful! Really appreciate the lesson. Looking forward to trying it out. Not that you’re asking for it but I couldn’t help but notice a similarity between you and uncle larry’s old videos. It took him a long time to feel comfortable just letting his advice rip. And that even what feels like a tiny tip or just something personal he does is actually super helpful for us viewers. I rewatch his corona lesson videos a ton and always laugh at how different they are. We’re here bc we love you guys and your playing. Whatever you wanna talk about, fire away!
Thanks for going into the finer detail and revealing your technique to us Jedd , Velvet hammers ! That extra sustain you manage to wring out from your concentrated finger pressure on the fretboard is phenomenal. We are soaking up as much knowledge as you care to share out here !
Yo Jedd you’re blessed to be able to play the guitar so well …but you’re really blessed to have little kids and dogs running around your house laughing and having fun 😊
Hey Jedd thanks for all the great tips on playing acoustic! Gave me a lot to work on there! Really appreciate it! Love your playing and song writing ❤💕can’t get enough of it on UTube! Hope I can find a few CD’s to purchase. Maybe on your web site? If not there’s always Band Camp. I did find your digital down loads there! And yes that bonus footage of the tune Big Blue Sky was absolutely fantastic! Sounded simply brilliant, stripped down to just you and Tom it was pure magic!👍🎸👏🙌💕🙏✌️👋
Thanks so much Jedd. That left hand tip is gold. It's a constant battle for me to get a richer sound out an acoustic particularly fingerstyle. I've been doing Bryan Sutton's bluegrass course and that's making a big difference to the right-hand flat-picking. Thought this interview with him by Tom was great: ruclips.net/video/oH5jICnyPus/видео.html
I never really believed in the "prodigy" thing till Billy Strings came around! He even changed his name to "Strings"! LOL Brazilian rosewood also helps with that beautiful clear tone. 8) Jedd also push's the string close to the fret, not so much in the middle or higher fret. That's something I struggled with. There is less/no sympathetic tone/sound fretting close to the fret like that. That big dreadnought w/Brazilian Rosewood sounds awesome!! So does the player playing it!! 8) I've never been to Australia. A friend of mine flies for a major airline, triple 7 freighter from LA to Sydney 5 times/month. There is a jump seat 8). Peace --gary
Dead on! Solo acoustic is about self-producing/self-mixing, i.e., creating dynamics (in the moment); handing the sound guy something inspiring to work with (of course, it helps if you've got Colin behind the mixing console). Anyway, a million ways to do this? Absolutely! Pick attack? Sure! Amount of flesh covering the string? Makes perfect sense! Ultimately, the lesson here is to put in the time, experiment, and trust your ear (you'll know when it's right.) And yes, definitely more acoustic shows. You've already got the makings of a strong set, e.g., "Weather and Water", and that song about "Genevieve"? Also, those last two songs. But what about closing with an acoustic version of "High Lonesome"? Everybody loves a hit. Now I'm dating myself here, but if I had a penny for every time that video played on CMT (back in the day), I could've easily covered that Martin's BBQ bill. LOL. jimmy

Thanks for saying that mate. I’d rather this all be a conversation and not a sales pitch ya know.
Aussies are soooooo real 🙏🏽
Thanks for showing us the magic Jedd!

Thank you so much mate
Loved the intro song.

First tune is Beautiful ❤. Man that guitar would make me wanna play all the time. Sweet.
Thanks Jedd!
That thing rings like a a Steinway
Awesome. And that bonus footage With uncle Larry was a so great
What a joy that was eh!
Insane touch… worth aspiring to
Thank you mate
Jedd in the Shed, I quite like that :)
very good observation,I only play with my fingers but use that same technique ,just never thought about it...thanks Jedd
Thanks Jedd, excellent lesson. Greetings from Finland!
Here's one for the algorithm!
This was very helpful.
awesome! thanks mate
❤as usual.. lovely Jedd. Wonderful musician and good person are two titles that you deserve and rock
Good stuff for sure! It’s the subtle details that make guitar so seductive. Thanks for sharing your insights.
Dear Jedd very interesting Think you're almost in Eb ?
1/2 step down plus or minus a couple of cents
Yes Jedd, a session guitarist taught me exactly this. Very dynamic. Cold in Sydney at the moment.
You guys are in winter correct? You’re in my tomorrow lol.
My daughter used to live in New Zealand and I’d always say to her : you are in tomorrow minus hours from me.
haha!
new to the channel but just wanted to appreciate the playing you do to start the videos - it's just beautiful, thanks!
Thanks for tuning in mate! appreciate it man
Thank you for sharing Jedd!
Thoroughly enjoy your playing and great info. Thanks from NC
Sweet music Jedd. Thanks brother.
Man nice playing and you make it seem so effortless! I feel like i struggle expressing myself on my guitar so back to the drawing board again.
I start at the drawing board everyday mate! haha I feel ya man
Beautiful!
Thank u brotha

Velvet hammers !

Right on man, thank you
Yo Jedd you’re blessed to be able to play the guitar so well …but you’re really blessed to have little kids and dogs running around your house laughing and having fun 😊
Absolutely mate. Life is beautiful here
The culture of anything is in the details. No need to be apologetic. I think feeling the sweet spot on a string length is also part of it.
Love billy he puts a lot of rock n roll into his bluegrass! Dude kicks ass! You ever surf when you lived back home jedd?
Nice Jedd

cool fish
Incredible sounding! What type and gauges of strings are you running?
12-53 EJ16 D’Addario mate
is that your house under the beam of a UFO on the wall behind you?
is that where the magic comes from?
Ya own any matons jed? Ive got the tommy model, also the deisel mini, great acoustics
never had one mate but I’d love to find a 90s 808 TE size with at AP5 pickup, great guitars
Thanks, Jedd. Quick ? - Is the tattoo on your left arm the same as the sticker on Clarence White’s Telecaster?
no mate, its my version of our family crest
@@JeddHughesOfficial I didn’t think you’d had a German/Frankfurt connection but that is one special guitar. Thanks!!
Souns killer
