Finally... Thank you for showing when your foot pushes the button(s) to start and stop. Too much time is taken with many other looper tutorials shredding and doing their own guitar doodling stuff vs. actually showing how the pedal works.
Alex Hutchings is a fantastic guitar player, because he started off the right way. While growing up, Alex intensely studied the many styles, modes, tone, and improv lead creations of the amazing Steve Lukather. You can even hear Lukather-style nuances, in everything he plays. That's why his leads sound soooo sweeeeeet! BRAVO ALEX!
Not normally a fan of anything more than a 6 string but I really do like how Alex applies the lower strings in the funk jam in the middle, he's incredibly creative.
the more I see of this guy, the more I like. he's obviously into his music and plays very well, his facial expressions are great; loves his tunes and does not give a damn who knows it.
I have just bought my first looper..Boss RC3..this guy can truly play..excelent technique combined with a good sound..love his musical aproach...best looper demo by far..thx Alex....
Masterguitarist...managing all at the same time...Alex has got a real talent for musical intention , that's why he is topnotch in demonstrating what one can do with a loopersystem or any other device...to me the BEST on youtube...thx again Alex...
I like Pierce's facial expression and head movement after Hutchings starts soloing. I think I'm going to start doing this when I'm listening to grooves.
Its because he looks like the 'Predator' that killed Arnie's team and only for Arnie he might be sizing up your skull for a 'prize' now! "Too small!" he would exclaim.
Anyone who produces an incredibly inspiring video like this one always comes under fire from the pathetic, inadequate fraternity who use negativity to hide their own failings.
Good point and Two reasons 1. Some people are never happy 2. In that unhappy list half are internet trolls who are complete losers and hence can never see a good thing
i think because some guys look at it for 1 hour, and didnt learn a thing. Couldn't replicate a song, melody or technique. Honestly, if ur just starting out, or your a beginner. This might not be the place for you,yet The ease, skill and tecniques will mostlikely have a disheartening effect. No shame in mastering the fundamentals before coming here. That way it might motivate instead of frustrate you.
This guy looks straight up right outta the Oblivion character creator.. Bosmer to be exact. Like he'd be a relative of the blonde guy who follows you around after you beat the Arena.
This guys on some Boss demo videos too. One of the best guitarists I've seen, and he really gets into it. That's a good thing and facial expressions don't matter, it's the music that does. Have you seen the faces that SRV made when he was playing? Awesome.
We are experiencing not only a great guitarist but one with an organized brain unlike the downvoters here. He has mastered all of this and is a fine arranger as well. Thank you Alex!
Wow. I'm so glad I found this video. I got a Boomerang III for my birthday recently, and want to use it live, but I've been frustrated with figuring out how to actually do interesting stuff with just my guitar. There's a local art festival in the fall where I live that I'd like to perform solo at (first time doing such a thing on my own). Really great video, I learned a lot on what ways I can use a looper with my guitar.
Alex, every time I come back to view this short intro into Creative Looping, I am truly stunned by both your extreme proficiency on the guitar, and also by your sense of melody, harmony and rhythm. Now I know that you have had to dedicate an enormous amount of time practicing your craft/art but, the question I truly hope you will answer in this forum is, Did you rehearse the parts (albeit too brief parts), that you played in this masterpiece of a lesson, or did you just do 'spontaneous improvisations' ?? If possible, could you please answer this for me ? Thanks in advance mate.
He was playing in the house band of Michael Jackson's Thriller in the West End a couple of years ago, don't know if it's still on or whether he's still playing in it. He was awesome can emulate any player including that ridiculous Van Halen solo in Beat It...
At 2:54 is what I think of as a really soulful slide, anyone can do it but there's the littlest subtle way that can make it a big difference to someone's ear, I hope to get that vibrato and feel in my playing"
So So good, I have to ask? Do you at times use the guitar neck like a trombone slide? Just feeling where its right not paying attention to rigid scales? Thanks so much for sharing this. I have looping stations and oh man they are great. You are so so good. Thanks again for sharing this. Your the best.
In regards to your use of the RC-30, could you please explain how and why you have the FS-6 hooked up with both the A and the B instead of using the middle A&B input? I use both of these pedals in my setup and was wondering what advantages and disadvantages those different setups allow.
@dftba171 I really don't understand your criticism. He made perfect use of the 8 string in this context by using the low strings to create bass tracks.
Excelente explicación además a veces noto que los que usan looper suena en su mayoria sintético, un poco rígido en este caso no, el video nos muestra que puedes hacer presentaciones que se escuchen naturales.

One of the few guys who makes good use out of 8 strings.
Yeah man, I finally found out why we need 8 strings.
One of the others being Rob Scallon
That was an absolute joy to listen to!
I have just bought my first looper..Boss RC3..this guy can truly play..excelent technique combined with a good sound..love his musical aproach...best looper demo by far..thx Alex....
Every time I see a new video from Alex, his guitar seems to have grown another string?
+CountryHouseGent hahaha :-)
And hair
Rik neilson effect. Every time I saw him he got another neck on his guitar
It really does , such a great player
Masterguitarist...managing all at the same time...Alex has got a real talent for musical intention , that's why he is topnotch in demonstrating what one can do with a loopersystem or any other device...to me the BEST on youtube...thx again Alex...
Great finish on the guitar body, and the maple fretboard makes it pop!
By far one of the best examples of looping...
Awesome player & teacher...
2:23 is so amazing, especially that slide at 2:29, makes me feel good... so good...
Man I love 7 and 8 strings, so versatile. It gets so boring just seeing them in metal.
this dude makes the best use of it I've seen. Love his vids.
@@hereonmars charlie hunter has a very cool approach to the instrument as well, you should check him out.
@@MrN0b0dy85 yeah gotta to meet and see him live 5 years ago. He was such a chill dude.
I like Pierce's facial expression and head movement after Hutchings starts soloing. I think I'm going to start doing this when I'm listening to grooves.
crosbonit they strategically placed that looper video there to hide him creaming his pants.
how can 36 people give this the thumbs down ?.... the guy's trying to help and explain..... get a life !
PompeyMatt17 simply my words 🤟👍

Stunning musicality and freedom on the instrument.
Thank you Alex Hutchings for an eye opening nicely done video. You are a fantastic player! Thanks for sharing.
I own the RC-30 but I got kind of confused and left it for a while - this clears up so much! Off to jam I go! Cheers, Guitarist!
This guy looks straight up right outta the Oblivion character creator.. Bosmer to be exact. Like he'd be a relative of the blonde guy who follows you around after you beat the Arena.
Thank you Alex, you've got the Magic.
Great jammin' at the end there! Just loved it!
his practicing sounds better than 90% of music I hear on radio these days
BINGO !!! 'You hit the Nail right on it's Head' my friend. This guy Makes music, no questions about that fact. He's Ridiculously GOOD !!!
ikr, sounds like a Grammy-winning John Mayer guitar solo.
Make that 99% now!
Dear Alex,your Lessons on Looping,more a BABY TEACHING..really simple and creative..Thank you Dr.Nanda.INDIA
This guys on some Boss demo videos too. One of the best guitarists I've seen, and he really gets into it. That's a good thing and facial expressions don't matter, it's the music that does. Have you seen the faces that SRV made when he was playing? Awesome.
That was some splendid jazz at the end
Amazing amazing player .. always blows me away with his sense of rhythm and super cool chops ..
Nice work at the 7:00 mark. The "smells so bad" guitar face is legendary!
We are experiencing not only a great guitarist but one with an organized brain unlike the downvoters here. He has mastered all of this and is a fine arranger as well. Thank you Alex!
That last example was awesome. Could have listened for hours.
The end piece was sublime
Last minute was worth the price of a ticket . Beautiful
yeah badass looping and he used several looper pedals. and the duo jam at the end was killer!!!
Brilliant Alex as always...more!
Alex Rules Sheesh! What an amazing artist.The duo at the end was incredible.
You play very well and it is beautiful to ear you. You are an inspiration to play always better.
Very nicely done and great playing from both of you!
This guy was at my college afew years back promoting Roland Gear. Awesome player
What hes doing at the 5min mark is insane, getting these more dynamic boss pedal setups are tough. Awesome if you can nail the techniques
Wow. I'm so glad I found this video.

Really great video, I learned a lot on what ways I can use a looper with my guitar.
Great demo with real good jazz guitar playing!
wow that last jazz part on the guitar blew my mind
I'm almost falling asleep because it's so smooth
He is a fucking legend
+Hartmann and he's a Funky Legend!
Legend as in the guy most guitarists are waiting for his album, and waiting, and waiting, ...................
Amazing demo there. and some great chops too. Been thinking of getting into looping since I am so big on home recording it seems natural to me.

Bloody hell. Alex melts me. Stunning playing
Excellent work on the looping, man.
That guitar is so cool!! I want an 8 string with a Khaler LOL
Sounds great, good intro to how looping works too. Thanks.
Yeah!! The violin guy seems to be feeling it!
awesome lesson, awesome playing by alex, and amazing violin player touching.

Brilliant musician....and top guitar player...

This is massively useful. Thank you!
What an incredible video very inspiring...amazing player...thank you.
want to know what genius means? watch Alex Hutchings..always a humbling experience
Wow, fantastic playing. Kudos!
in all seriousness, I've switched to 4ths tuning because of him - and so far (6 days) I am loving it. I don't think I will go back to standard.
Thank bro, awesome skills and sound, well done
I need this thing. Having his skills would be nice too.
I would rather have his skills. ;)
Truth there !!!
duf101101 I just bought it a week totally worth the money!!
Unmatched tone and feel holy crap.
Thanks for sharing, I also love that guitar.
amazing performance Alex!!!!!!!
Hey. I really enjoyed that. Thanks for posting.
Outstanding playing
Every time. So awesome.
Timing skills!!
Alex, you are one brilliant musician...
He was playing in the house band of Michael Jackson's Thriller in the West End a couple of years ago, don't know if it's still on or whether he's still playing in it. He was awesome can emulate any player including that ridiculous Van Halen solo in Beat It...
Melodic Mastery made my day.
At 2:54 is what I think of as a really soulful slide, anyone can do it but there's the littlest subtle way that can make it a big difference to someone's ear, I hope to get that vibrato and feel in my playing"
... very nice video man , lovely music , great !!
So So good, I have to ask? Do you at times use the guitar neck like a trombone slide? Just feeling where its right not paying attention to rigid scales? Thanks so much for sharing this. I have looping stations and oh man they are great. You are so so good. Thanks again for sharing this. Your the best.
forgive my ignorance,but how many string is that guitar,and the standard tuning too,looks and sounds amazing.
very nice player I would like to learn how to expression the major scale like he do
Great watch !🙏🏻✌🏻️🎸✨
Thanks for this demo! Really helpful!
Alex, you're the best!!
Great guitar player! Very good lesson!
Can you do a lesson on
How to use a Boss RC-3 looper pedal just the Boss RC-3 and all functions
and some examples
Great teacher :D Even better ideas :3 And looks strangely like Mathew Horne
man, i really love your playing!!!
and your sounds are also great!!
Alex is one of the most inspiring guitarists...
Well , what kind of music is inspiring for you may depend on your mood , but great things always do ?
Great demo! Are you using an octave down for the base parts or is that coming from heavy strings on the guitar?
this guy is amazing! seriously.
Hey, what bridge do you have on your guitar? Also what pick-ups are you using? Any piezo on this guitar? or just clean tone?
In regards to your use of the RC-30, could you please explain how and why you have the FS-6 hooked up with both the A and the B instead of using the middle A&B input? I use both of these pedals in my setup and was wondering what advantages and disadvantages those different setups allow.

You're the most awesome guitarist along with jess lewis!! Look at his face how he Expresses his
