Everything amazing about Eric's style, condensed into one fearsome ascending pentatonic lick! Watch the entire 6-hour Cascade seminar: troygrady.com/...
Where did all these whiner baby's in the comment section? This man is giving away this knowledge for free and people have the audacity to complain. People would have killed for guitar instructional videos this cohesive pre-internet! People like Troy are integral to the growth of music as a whole and I just had to say something because this man deserves so much respect for the work he has done and continues to do. Yall' bitches need to learn to be humble!
Miles Harris Amen bro!
So true. .We are so fortunate that he gave away these lessons for free 😇👌
Bro, imagine what dudes like George Lynch and Reb Beach would have been like if they had videos like this to learn from instead of learning it all on the fly.
I absolutely love your enthusiasm for the amazing Eric Johnson.. Mechanics and techniques are something that I've always been infatuated with..
BJ EJ is my biggest influence and his technical skills and mechanics from the late 80’s through the 90’s was something of a marvel. Never been equaled.
You amaze me, Troy! Of course your playing, instruction and presentation are stellar, but the neutron star metaphor was out if this world! You are the guitar teacher for the modern age and someone I can totally identify with when it comes to cultural references and guitar mechanics minutiae.
I have every expectation you will parlay this project into something even more epoch-making in the near future. You are just too damn talented!
Troy, your videos are what I had always wanted guitar instruction videos to be. I look forward to them and check them out immediately as soon as you post them. Excellent work, sir!
kigahaskell Likewise, this kind of comment is what we always imagined RUclips could be, in a kinder gentler, troll-free world! Thanks for watching our stuff -- we'll keep making it!
***** Thanks, Troy! I just signed up for Masters of Mechanics. If you put it out, I'll pick it up. :)
On a separate note, are you considering attending Vai Academy this summer? It's just a few days but you'd get to hang out with both Steve Vai and Eric Johnson. I bet if you bring the magnet, you'd be able to get some nice close up footage from both of them!
Saw Eric live for the first time the other night. Mind blown. Thanks for this cool lesson!
dude, you're a genius
Troy's excitement for this lick is so palpable. Bless his heart.
I love this lick! I think Eric plays it in F to eliminate the open string harmonic noise left ringing when playing it in E.
Thanks Troy, I love these kinds of licks in this video. Especially those repeating kind of licks. I got a few new licks in my tool box that I can't stop playing, thanks again.
If only this had been available 15 years ago!!! Man what a tremendous amount of information given out!!
troy...OH boy ole boy! You have shown to me how enormous a guitar is. I have always wanted to learn so at a point in life in which I choose to do things I have always wanted to I fear I don't have enough time...LOL ! Seriously. The respect and amazing things achieved through discipline really is new life to me. I will never listen the same again.
Dude u are such a beast!! Im a big time fan of ur vids ur amazing dude!
Took me years after seeing this video, and finally, after many struggles, got myself a gibson nighthawk.
People here are like "I don't want to hear about what we're doing I just want to see you play what we're doing." How the duck is that going to teach you anything. LISTEN to the man. He's teaching you music not JUST guitar. Appreciate his teaching genius as well as his plying. You might find yourself writing something based on these ideas instead of just playing the lick in question. He's giving you context.
Okay-huge props for the neutron star reference. I've been an astronomy geek since I was a wee lad, even longer than I've been a guitar geek.
***** We haven an astronomy major on the team here at Cracking the Code, so we're always trying to appeal to the Cosmos crowd!
***** Y'all are rockin' my kind of crowd over there.
+Troy Grady Cosmos's full moon parties, 'psytrance?
Mark Lambert Aye, I'm the same. Love guitars and astronomy.
Your channel's awesome sir. Eric Johnson's one of my favorite guitarists and his tone makes him sound even better than he already is- you've captured it really well!
The science of it is pretty amazing. Great job!
You are great Troy...!!! Really Great as ever...!!! Thanx again man!!! God bless you lavishly, for... real art techs are some of the vocabulary you use to reflect the Infinite Spirit from the stage to everyone around... (If you are inspired...). Thaaaanks...!
ERICNESS!
Awesome breakdown.
Great lesson as always! I wonder, will the be any videos on Shawn Lane in the future in any of your video series? He's such a brilliant picker, yet there's so few documentation...
Amazing. How are you simulating the Eric lead tone? Few people are even close to it.
Troy is today what Hot Licks /REH videos was in the 90s... but way, WAY better.
Those guys were pioneers and we're still watching their stuff!
As a flawed, indeed (in many ways) half-assed guitarist, it's amazing how I can rip off descending sixteenth notes, but I find ascending so difficult to cleanly pull off.
2:12.. "and then we've got the middle finger alone on the g-string" lol no pun intended
Amazing! You are a great guitarrist and teacher!
for those of you who are only interested in the harmonic octave note, and couldn't care less about over-analysing one of eric's lines, use the knuckle of your thumb on your picking hand to scuff the string as you play it. experiment with position as it's beyond the fretted part of the instrument. you'll get it.
troy has an amazing capacity for analysis and is clearly an outstanding picker, but he tends to go on a bit!
lol. spot on. I go to Troy when i want to exhaust every aspect of a topic... his analyses are without peer in the world of RUclips guitar info but you are right, the title is a bit misleading... thankfully I've had the pinch harmonic technique under my "thumb" for quite some time now... 😂
this is very challenging! but I'm starting to get it
His set at the Holiday Inn on Thursday's during happy hour is good too. Plus shots are half price
Love this
@Troy, you do an awesome job! Thank you.
Could you please do one video on Michael Romeo's sweep tapping ?
Great teacher!
Troy! I appreciate you MUTHERF~
So if I wanted to watch everything you've done on Eric Johnson is it like in one package available on your website? I want to learn all those licks and runs that you've broken down. Thanks, awesome videos!
LifesonPetrucci Hi! The "Cascade" seminar is our most intensive EJ investigation, and this is one chapter (out of 35!) that you're watching here. You can pick up the seminar by itself, or you can get it as part of the Masters in Mechanics subscription that also includes a bunch of other seminars and interviews. Up to you. Details on the Mechanics page on our site. Thanks!
Amazing video
What guitar is that you are playing? Beautiful tone!
That actually the first position pentatonic MAJOR in G. The notes are major sounding
VERY COOL VIDEO. I LIKE THE WAY ERIC ATTACKS THAT LAST NOTE FROM THE BEGINNING EXAMPLE. THERE IS A SLIGHT GAP OF SILENCE PRIOR TO THE LAST NOTE ATTACK. IT IS SUTTLE TOUCHES LIKE THIS THAT MAKES A DIFFERENCE.
YOU ARE A GREAT GUITARIST. I NEED SOME HIGH TECH EQUIPMENT LIKE YOU.
Any chance you break down any Tony MacAlpine stuff? Maybe some passages and melodies that are a bit more complex.
Haha! At 2:32, I set the RUclips video speed to .5 to make sure I had all of the notes right and before I changed it back to normal setting Troy started explaining the sequence but at half speed. So he sounds like a child explaining something to a younger child.
Need to buy the cascade pack to learn how to do it properly.
hi troy, great lick and great lesson! but i'm a little confused with the left hand fingering...the tab doesn't match the video
I am confused on the RH at 3:30 ish. You are playing down up on the A string which has you moving away from the D string and the same from D to G strings? This is all set up by the initial sweep.
You're like the Gordon Ramsay of guitar playing :P Nice work man!
Gordon Ramsay lol, this reminds me of a live radio show that eric played for once. If you look at the video, the people at the radio show set up his equipment badly, and his signature tone was just murdered. Eric immediately starts shaking his head, and I can just see him shouting and swearing like Gordon Ramsay in my mind.
Can you do Richie Kotzen? You videos are awesome. Subscribed!
On the b string note 18th fret you say its an up stroke but seem to change it to a down stroke for the repeating 2 string arpeggio part. Is this correct? HELP!
kinda hard to get a pinch harmonic with an up stroke
i've never studied economy picking. do you think it's necessary that i practice it to sound like eric johnson?? or can i get away with it by just alternate picking?? :
+aravis123 Which ever way you can accomplish it and still feel comfortable. I know there have been many songs I have learned where it supposed to be played one way but I can replicate it another way and nobody has ever known the difference.
there are so many things wrong with your lespaul i don't know where to begin. can you tell us more about it?
It's not a Les Paul. It's a Gibson Nighthawk. Unusual animal, 25.5" scale length. You can find more about it on the Googs.
0:05 7:39. 1:52.
2:32. 2:58
very nice great
Sick guitar
Hey Troy, how difficult is moving through scales and arpeggios on piano vs. guitar? Is it more intuitive to learn on your own through practice on piano? I want to learn piano, I'm just wondering the time investment required for fluency versus guitar. Thanks!
Angelo Phan Guitar is my primary instrument, being highly proficient on it and competent on piano, for me piano feels much more intuitive to play arpeggios. The technique is also simpler.
does this guy have tabs for this stuff?
troy cuts it strict
Ha, all the Ericness :D
What is the name of the song this lick is taken from?
Thank you!
NO EMPIEZA DESDE EL TERCER TRASTE?
What model is that Gibson?
Fra Aul Nighthawk
32 Justin Beaver fans...
Well, congrats; you're Eric Johnson. Now what do we do with the old one?
Gibson Nighthawk?
Indeed!
a fuckin gibson nighthawk! /,,/, YEAAAAAAH!
When you want a Les Paul that stays in tune, buy the Gibson built like Fender, the Nighthawk!! lol
1 thsnd thnx 4 shared that
it came out of nowhere
Hi can I buy a dvd/download of this please?
You can. It's part of what we call the "Cascade" seminar, which is 6+ hours long. But honestly the best way to get it is by subscription, which is way cheaper. Then you can watch all our other stuff too.
please add links to the standalone seminar. thanks!
half way through you lost me with the fingering.......you showed us the "skeleton", but not the actual pattern of the very opening lick?
If he gives too much info, go watch someone else's video instead of complaining about his.
Simpletons.
played so fast that your tuning went crazy :)
1:34
I feel u lost one note sir😂😂😁
micheal J fox is that you ?????
Use music theory, Its a boxed 6th arpeggio. The P scale has 6th and m7 arpeggios in it.
If u really listen closely eric dont use flat picking. Its to harsh. He use more lagado and hammer ons
I feel guilty watching this. It's like dissecting a beautiful butterfly
This guy is like a 40 year old teenager
Good lord get to the point!
As you said " his style " then you have bozo's like Bonamassa who have no style try to rip it off and use it as their own , just sayin'
you should exclude all the reference to the notes you are not playing.whats the point of telling us what not to play..
you are a great guitarist. why do you use that crap on the fretboard?
Do you even know what it is?
Not really thats why im asking, im guesing to avoid hiting open strings or something, It just looks so artificial and unnecessary
+Joaquin Odriozola So you don't even know what it does, and yet you call it crap? Dude that's just rude. It's a camera mount, nothing to do with helping his playing.
Or is it to hold a camera(?
+Joaquin Odriozola it is
Less talk !!! Moore. Tab!!!
this guy is really really good but know one picks like Eric Johnson. it's amazing how one player can be so different from another.
Play more, talk less...
Are you upset with the free lesson?
shut the fuck up dude, this is gold coming out of his mouth
Sod off more, comment less...
how to complicate...
Very nervous teacher.
No, this is what it is like when you have so many ideas in your head and so much enthusiasm about telling them to other people that you can barely run your mouth fast enough to get all the info out as fast as you'd like.
It's called enthusiasm.... but yes, out of all his videos (he has a ton on here) I can see how this particular one gave you that impression. ;)
This is why Gibson is in trouble. Just look at this guitar for ex. Oh my god! The ugliness...
too much talking, not enough playing
That guitar is not good for lessons. The fretboard has to many things going on. It is hard for us to understand were you are on the fretboard.
slow down on the coffee bro, your rambling
This guy is a great musician , just too busy and annoying, he needs to stop drinking coffee!!!!
He is not too busy or annoying.
why are all these guitar guy s taaaalking so much jeeezz - just play and shut up
Yawn.
get a life....stop copying eric. be original.
Talking too much .. play the lines... slow it down - play it repeatedly and stop talking so much!
