    Iv played over 50 yrs but don't read music just improvised and jammed a lot, learned from others. This really helped and gave me some fresh viewpoints. Great video , thanks. I'm subscribed and will be watching more.

    Made my day, landed here thanks to being a Clapton fan and love his tone. Thanks for those excellent tips laid down in just 13min. My respects, that is how you need to study electric guitar, knowing your intervals and scales, knowing really what is in the phrase you are playing.

  • @Weedbandit12
    @Weedbandit12 7 лет назад +16

    My favorite Clapton tone was when he was playing Gibsons through a blues breaker. Thanks for this!! Loving that LP also haha

  • @supernoah71

    Thanks so much for the excellent lessons! I've been a boxed pentatonic player for years and always had difficulty making those positions work nicely until I came across your "never lost" system. Brilliant!

    I wasn’t a Clapton fan going into this, but a bit more now.
    The nuances got me and i learned something. Gratzi!

    I love your approach and how you laugh at yourself whenever you flub something. Your style fits my style and approach, as I’m a big Deadhead/Phishhead too. Been learning a lot of awesome techniques from your channel! Thanks, Ian!! 25+ years at it for me, and still a mountain of information to learn and take in 🤙🏻

  • @rcolang1
    @rcolang1 7 лет назад +1

    one of the best lessons ever......more usable content in 13 minutes than most hour long tortures, gonna go watch his videos and see it in action, this gives reason to phrasing, I'm the guy, Robert BTW, who asked for phrasing work a while ago...this, page etc.... is it......thank you , love your channel....

  • @Mikeshawtoday
    @Mikeshawtoday 6 лет назад +3

    Thanks, I really enjoyed it. Followed it 100%. I've been playing along with Clapton for the past few weeks, and this lesson brought it all together. Now I can go back to playing with Clapton in a more focused way. Great explanation, a perfect lesson my friend. Thanks so much!

    @farmdogmusic2365 7 лет назад +1

    Cool deal that was a slick and a sick lesson I feel a lot better now about traveling from the 5th string route to the second string root it's very slick how Eric steals a note in the pentatonic with that four to five slide and lands on the major 3rd instead of home Bass.... thanks

The little mess-ups with the looper and such are just the way your process works - no worries. This is the 7th vid I've seen of yours - I have sent you emails about lessons and stuff. I will continue to watch more from the stich method.

      Just to say that I've been looking over some of your other videos and I'm hugely pleased by the learning concept you have of fostering understanding as opposed to learning by rote. For me the music theory you describe is just right in supporting the lessons. It's only by looking at the work of others and building on that that we collectively progress in any sphere and I think you are adding to that. Thanks again.

    I've been watching Marty Schwartz and Jake Lizzio for a few years now, and both have expanded my knowledge both in terms of tunes to play and solid music theory. But.........your vids have been popping up on my "suggested" YT links, and your style is relaxed whilst teaching stuff that's relevant to me (even after 30 years of playing). Subscribed.

I think you have so much you want to say you just get ahead of yourself -- I think you are great -- thanks for helping me to become a better guitarist. Also, you play a good straight man to Sean Daniel's videos.

      Another cool thing about this Clapton Scale is that it's very easy to slide up to the Major Pentatonic for the root note. Useful for those of us who spent too many years not making music out of the scales we were shown -- notice I didn't use the word "taught". ;-)

From Marty to Brett to Steve with countless others. I am so glad to have discovered you. I've not been to your patreon page yet but im comin. I've been playing only a year and im at that stage where nothing makes sense. If that makes sense lol. Not any more dude you are awesome. Plus you're a Dead fan. Like you i never got to see em either but i love em. One thing tho, i think.you should take a shot every time you mention a "wild mustache hair". LOL! No but really, you are a Pearly Baker among wines. Thanks for everything. And please think about the shot idea lol. Thanks dude.
