GUYS THIS WAS APRIL FOOL’S! ❤
I would hope that it was obvious when you brought up the banjo but it didn't look that way
Not surprised, but relieved.
Thank Goodness!
Though my son wants me to give banjo a serious look.,😂
Thanks for getting me upset for nothing. Some of that banjo picking is really impressive though.
Peter Farrell's banjoist twin brother will NOT like this
And today’s date is….
@hellowhats2021 not really a joke subject
Had me, right up until 2:10!
exactly!!!!!@@kenster3554
Hey, you had me going ‘til I looked at the calendar…Benson on the banjo cracked me up!👍👏🙌🙏
I hope this is just an April fools joke or maybe fishing for compliments, because although there are lots of reasons to not do RUclips, personal attacks shouldn’t be one of them. RUclips, and social media in general, does bring out some wackos and sociopaths, but you just need to ignore them and do your thing.
Looking forward to the "Secret of the No Chords" video!
Please reconsider, Chase. You have been fantastic on RUclips!!! You cannot let one bastard get you down. There will always be those nay-sayers, Chase-trust me. You are an excellent teacher and a wonderful musician. Thank you for your generous contributions. :-)
😂
Exactly!!!
👍🎩👍
I hope this was an April Fool’s video! If not, then I wish you the best in your new direction. Regarding trolls, remember the old adage about avoiding wrestling with pigs (“you just get dirty and the pigs enjoy it”). Regarding the banjo, remember the old joke about the difference between a banjo and a chain saw (“the chain saw has a wider tonal range”). Please keep us informed of your next step(s) - your material and attention to detail need to be available to us! 👏
"Benson's method to the banjo". Brilliant lol. Top April fools right there.
Very nice. You had me until you mentioned the banjo.🙂
Hahaha was almost taking it seriously until the banjo Benson’s applications
Break a leg Chase! Long life to your channel!!
wwaaaait a minute...
Chase - Unless this is an April's Fools thing (I hope it is). If true, I understand your decision to quit but bro trust me on this, by quiting, you have automatically made them win! Just a suggestion, keep posting to at least advertize your school/teaching! The nay sayers will always be there but dont listen nor pay attention to them. I have a very small community on my channel and have had a few naysayers one even said I sucked. I simply deleted the comment of the Mo Frs and laughed it off. I don't give a rat's ass what they say. I'm in it to enjoy myself with my few subscribers. Any negative non constructive comment is definitely deleted and blocked and the result? I'm still having fun! Screw em Chase! BTW Excited to know more about tha banjo and the one chord!😜
So funny....Folks, IT'S APRIL 1st, he wouldn't do this if he didn't trust his audience to get it......he got me until I realized the date, good one, Benson to Banjo......
Must be an April fools joke.... funny.....the banjo and one chord approach...??
I really really hate this Chase!!! I so enjoy all you videos. Thoughtful, well filmed and edited and super informative... There will be lots of guys like me that will tell to ignore the monday morning quarterbacks that may comment. Guarantee you, the huge majority LOVE your channel. When I started my channel, I quickly noticed that there will always be someone that doesn't see it my way. The running joke was it should be called YouShould instead of RUclips. Dont let that dude ruin it for the rest of us..... Hope this is an April fools.....Thanks Chase
hahaha! love how so many people took this seriously!
Now I have to study with grumpy frumpy old Jimmy Bruno and he is great but the cussing and smoking and he needs grooming and he is always pissed off even though the music lessons are fantastic!
Have people been attacking you online? For what? Making instructional music videos? Who are the psycos attacking you? Maybe you should just take a break and the come back stronger. Or is THIS APRIL FOOLS DAY :)
very sad.. you are a generous person and don’t deserve the abuse.. those trolls are just jealous keyboard warriors.. best of luck to you.. hope things change.. a loss for those who sincerely benefit from your lessons..
April Fools 😂
Secret of the one chord is 50% less than the secret of the 2 chord made me spit my coffee. Bravo.
OMG. Peter was right. You are an AH. 😂 Had me going till the effen Banjo.
Chase I have been with you since you started. I work in law enforcement. I get call out all the time. But here’s the catch for every 20 people that call me names 200 people tell me that I do a great job officer. That guy peter Ferrel is a joke not even on your level . I shared with you months ago when he first started with the name calling. Don’t waste your time with a clown who belongs in the circus. You made us a family of jazz guitar players who have come to respect you as our teacher. You are a leader not a follower. It’s in you to teach because you are one of the best on line . Please reconsider You have thousands of fans all over the world that watch your videos. Don’t let a idiot pull you out from doing what you love. We all appreciate you and respect you as our teacher. ❤ Your number one fan. Ken
You got me good chase. Real funny 😁 lol But I stand by my words on Peter Ferrell
can't believe people are falling for this lol
Very sorry to hear this but I totally understand. You have a great future and I wish you well in everything you do.
The banjo OK April fools
April Fool 😅😅
Chase,
You are an incredible musician and a great teacher. There are a lot of jealous people who are going to be absolutely thrilled to hear that they defeated you. After all they can’t tolerate such brilliant and inspiring music lessons being posted on RUclips!
He was trying to pull an April Fool's joke, and it fell flat.
April fools day??? I hope so!!!
😅Chase, you scared me haha... I said: it can't be that Peter's negative vibes win. I wish you an excellent month and more lessons full of valuable information... I am looking forward to watching your new method "the secret of one chord" ❤️👍🏻🤣🤣🤣
Cheers
I hope this isn't the result of one negative comment versus 100 positive ones. You know that even you hyper-talented guys need to switch it up a little, like Rick Beato started doing interviews, that shot up his subscriptions like crazy!
That was mean, I really felt for you. Anyway, fair enough......but risky!
lol!!
Chase, I’m happy you are doing what feels right for you. You’ll be missed. Be aware you are opening yourself up to a deluge of banjo jokes. Be well.
This better be an april fools joke lol
Secret of the one chord on banjo with Benson vocabulary sounds like a winner.... however I can already hear the teeth gnashing from a certain Brazilian who already patented it... I'd go further.... personally.... secret of the one note and on the oud at that...
I think a lot of people are taking you seriously. Nice response to all the negative crap from Peter Ferrell. Absolutely keep doing what you’re doing. Your videos are excellent.
Chase Im sorry to see you go. You have enlightened more students positively than haters. Anyone hating on you is either jealous or stupid. Jack McDuff explained to me once that everyone has something to offer. You were helping so many people. Just think if they have time to hate on you they are not doing half as much as you. Ive always heard the more accomplished the musician the more humble they are. The less accomplished well you get the picture.Thank you for your time, patience and effort to move Jazz ahead.I appreciate it.
The secret of no chords? 😮 😉
If Chase Maddox uploads another video, then I will truly know that this is an April Fools joke about him quitting RUclips.
All I can say, is your RUclips channel is great! And has educated a lot of people to a higher level of playing because of your devotion to this channel! Don’t worry what anybody says about you, words are only words. keep that spiritual shield up and don’t let them affect you in any way, shape or form, because what you offer, is far greater than what these jealous , evil minded people doing. There’s so much in your videos, and I can’t even imagine how much more you have to offer. This is why I am really shocked by watching this and hope that you reconsider.
With your ability, I am sure you will do amazing things with the banjo and I am happy for you for it. the amount of people you’re reaching now is amazing and everybody that comes here wants to be here to learn from you. Keep this in mind. sticks and stones never had an effect on me. I support you with whatever you decide Chase. You’re a good teacher and seem like a nice person. Peace.
April 1st
Ouch. You got me, at least till the banjo bit. In my defence, I didnt see it till April 15th. In passing, I used to play a lot of bluebrass banjo, and there are some excellent jazz-influenced players out there, most notably Alison Brown and Bela Fleck, but also the elusive but superb Pat Cloud.
It's just a very large shouty market place - click bait and pretend drama are over the top.
Now It's just an advertising billboard for RUclipsr product.
I'm turning it Off now.
Never let bad people chase you away from something good.
ey dude it was nice having all these FREE LESSONS that used to cost $$$$ every human era except the last couple years, forget it, move on brother! we'll always have the arpeggios. i hope people finding this have nothing but gratitude for your generosity and humility for your work and effort. idk about what "attacks" but hell with it, if ain't fun, let it go
Hi Chase, if this were true it would be a real loss as your chanel is extremely helpful. However, in line with some of the comments and based on the date of this posting (April 1st), I would suggest that you take your pursuit of the secret one chord further. As you note the one chord approach is 50% better than the secret 2 chord approach, I therefore suggest that you pursue the one note approach. It would be 200% better than even the one chord approach (assuming that you do not include extensions, where the benefit would be even greater). As a bass player, I am used to pedal notes using a single note over different chords, perhaps you can help with applying this to the guitar (or Banjo 😂). It would also be very much in line with Jobim's classic song on the subject ("This is just a little samba. Built upon a single note"). Cheers! 🤣🤣🤣
Chase, here's the problem. If it's a joke, we (or, perhaps I) don't have the necessary background to get it. I mean, I've never suspected you of irony, I've never seen the slightest evidence of it. OTOH, Benson on the banjo does sound exceedingly weird, Bela Fleck notwithstanding. The whole part about the emotional impact on your friends and family and yourself was very convincing, and I wouldn't have thought you were a good actor. So, if this is a joke, congratulations on a very convincing performance, another arrow in your quiver of talents.
Another interpretive problem, if you were interested in the banjo, if you're a budding virtuoso on the banjo, that would help to explain the inclusion of Jonathan Stout, if that's his name, on your channel. Don't get me wrong, he's great at what he does. I recently saw a video of a duet of Tommy Emmanuel and Molly Tuttle playing a bluegrass tune, and it was great, really impressive musicianship, but I have no plans to attend a bluegrass concert anytime soon.
All I can say is, I really hope it's a joke. I do hope to see you in the Academy in the future.
I suggest you take it a step farther and apply all that you learned over the years to the Diddly Bow. Just imagine applying the Benson method to a instrument with just one string. Forget the Two Chord Method or the One Chord method with the Diddly Bow its been reduced to the One Note method.
Imagine the Pat Martino conversion to minor on the Diddly Bow although you might have to become ambidextrous and play two Diddly Bow at simultaneously at the same time. That's something that I sure Maestro Farrell hasn't mastered.
As far as myself, I am so far above you @sshats that it is unbelievable. Not only have I mastered the Two Chord, One Chord and the one note method, I have perfected the no chord and no note method. Can't you hear my masterful riffing? BTW I will happily sell you my instruction book for the measly price of $1500 dollars. Plus I'll throw in for no cost a video of me calling you a @ss hat. It a deal that is too good to pass up.
Ok, you got me. Going to nominate you for an Oscar! Hahahahahaha. Still, i enjoyed the Master Jazz Workout book, very much. In key of C, the notes of the F melodic minor include the F (minor 3rd of the ii) and E (3rd of the I) and then the first two notes of the G alt, G and Ab. It all makes sense.
Really hope you're april fooling with this, Chase...Don't quit! You're too valuable with this site.
I’m so sorry to hear this, bro!
I really enjoyed your sharing and lessons!
A big hug to ya, and wishing you happiness and the very best in your future endeavors. You deserve it.
Even though you are quitting RUclips, I'll be waiting (with bated breath) for the secret of the zero chord idea...and I want to know how to apply this as a ukele player. Thanks in advance.
Benson to the banjo! I'm laughing my arse off. Comedy gold!
No amount of cloning will guarantee the artistic developmentf anything. The schools are full of b.s. retired Teacher .miltary and active singer and jazz guitarist!
This is very disappointing to me. I think you have some of the best content out there. I don’t really dig the other guy’s stuff.
Man if you weren't good at what you do you wouldn't get persecution. They didn't speak good about Christ. Plant your feet and hold that chin up stay the course. You will be running all your life every time bad people oppose your good works. We have been on your side the whole time. I had to face bullies growing up now I'm tuff against almost anything but God.😊
50% less, 50% better lol
Looking forward to the new CBA:
Chase’s Banjo Academy 😅
Hey Chase - you probably should not have dropped this vid on April Fools Day but if it is not a joke, you should seriously reconsider your decision. You are a positive force on YT and have great things to contribute to the jazz guitar community.. If there are other musicians and people that have an issue with your approach, , so be it. Critics are only projecting and projection is not reality.. What you do it real. I do hope you reconsider. even though RUclips is not an ideal forum.
Mommmmm another RUclipsr did an “I’m quitting” April fools video…can we go to blockbuster and rent a movie?
You had me going until the Banjo made its entrance. I dig your sense of humor. Good thing I came back to double-check. Btw, it would be a tremendous tragedy if you were actually no longer on YT.
Following your two chord method for banjo, please consider the same for the koto.... All the best on 4/1.
Ah, you little devil, April fools , I was gutted when I first started watching !!! On a different note , when you get down, read all the many reviews you have and how much your audience appreciate you!!!!
how many times did it take to not crack up during the recording? You had me until you said banjo....
Happy April 1st😉
Never-ending barrage of "I'm quitting YT" vids today for April Fools.
You are certainly a very good player, but not really a good actor:))) Edit: On second thought, actually your ability to remain serious throughout this whole thing is admirable, lol...
The problem with April Fools jokes on the internet is that they are still there when it isn't April Fools Day. It's good you pinned a comment about it. I'm glad you aren't quitting!
make sure you make 30 vids and charge $500 for each ,plus the 30 books as well ,also at $500 each all about the secret of the one chord gotta spread it out abit ,and that should make you feel reel good for helping people and passing on the knowledge ,and then treat yourself to a Ferrari , benson banjos rule 🤣
Thx for a great laugh, I needed that today. 🤣🤣🤣 The one chord on Banjo, Benson Style, should be interesting to watch.
Banjo! 😂
Man that doesn't seem to be true. You are absolutely the man who loves music and loves to share your emotions with people, and we love that. Nohing to say more except I love your playing and you are abolutely talented
You really tried to squeeze tears out for the video 😄 Leave the acting to the pros. Banjo, What?! Lets see these jazz Banjo videos then😆
Banjo & George Benson, on April 1st leaves room for hope 🎉
That being said, I have seen a youtuber start from Zero and grow up to tour numbers. It’s like kayaking UP the Niagara River.
Besides that, as long as you don’t cause intentional harm, the only critique one should let affect you, is CONSTRUCTIVE critique.
Some guy, calling you names, bad moutging you or calling you a “looser”, is something that you ought NEVER allow to affect you to the point of calling it quits. And that’s not only about online things, it’s my life experience.
If the numbers are not yielding worth your effort, maybe you need to change something or give it more time and maybe team up with some of the ones which became successful at this youtube thing.
I am convinced that you have a bright future ahead of yourself.
… JD.
Very sorry to hear this ,but I totally understand ,you are a great teacher and have great potential ,I wish you the best in everything you do,thank you for everything you did for us.
This is great news. I need to work on my clawhammer benson licks. When do we start?!!😂
Your content is the best!!….much thanks….do what’s best for you
Why aren’t you on the road with someone of significance instead of doiing RUclips videos
Peter Farrell is the most thin-skinned, fake ‘jazz’ players that I’ve ever seen.
the percentile breakdown of the secret of the 1 chord 🎉😂
I dig the secret of one chord - not only on april 1st! ... 😉😀 keep up the great work and thanks a lot! 👍
Sorry to hear your leaving @ Chase ... Great teacher and guitar player 👍🇬🇧
I’m so surprised! Find it hard to understand why anyone would attack you.
Haha, Peter F you and your chord secrets! We got a 50% better method and for banjo! 😂
Does this mean you won’t be following through with a ‘deep dive into the B string’?
Hello Chase, I'm Daniel from Argentina, I'm using the translator so I hope you understand the meaning of the message...this is the starting point where you should not abandon the channel and much less the people who have trusted you and your classes that are very valuable, if you do it you will be throwing overboard everything that you built with effort, do not let others get away with it, you have plenty of talent and you have not yet started to use it, it says that the boat does not advance if it does not have the resistance of water and the bird if it does not have the resistance of air, then let the haters be that resistance but how would you move forward? , don't disappoint the people who are anxiously waiting every day for your classes on this beautiful channel... everyone who reads this comment, let's share this channel and make it grow so Chase moves forward... all this is growth and change and many times growth is painful but then you see the fruits of our work....endurance Chase, endurance Argentina, endurance Messi...God bless you friend I send you a hug! !!
I don't blame you, I did bluegrass for 20 years or so and the style is great for jazz surprisingly, the melodic Bill Keith style. I hope you give it a go anyway. UK 👍👍👍👍
🤣🤦♂️
Never thought I'd witness chord substitution beef
I saw this and was like: Oh no, dont quit. And then a bit after i was just: Oh i see. April fools
I always enjoyed watching your videos whatever you do keep up the good work
i have enjoyed your videos, sorry the negatives have taken the fun out of it - thank you for all the work you have put into your channel
April Fools!
You were born to apply Benson to the banjo, Chase... count me in!
April fool..you didn't get me
Don’t let the bully win, but it can be understood
April Fool!
Please don't quit. U are the only one who is able to dissect lines very well. It is on your channel I got to know how lines are even formed or created. I will try and retrieve the title of that video and let u know. We always hear jazz guys always improvising but how these lines are created have been a mystery. I am typing from Ghana in West Africa. It should tell u how your impact has been felt across the globe. Your videos are great and unique. Why do u have to quit because of Farrel who finds it difficult to get his message across. I have tried several times to follow him and make meaning out of his lesson but i have still not made any headway. Keep doing the great work. Kudos. Hope u change your mind.
LOL Fantastic April 1 video.
I mean I love the banjo, but maybe you could give a little love to the kazoo as well 😎
Your clarity, relevance, skills and musicality are outlier maestro level. Upload anything. Play throughs. Shorts. Please.
One word... Pat Cloud. Check out Higher Power (1983). He calls it his "journey to 2-5-1". Chase has taken the simple path.
