I'm in the US and have always pronounced it 'omm. This new pronunciation blew my mind. Maybe it's the three years of French I had in school, but 'omm just seems how it should sound.

I use this technique all the time when playing Ramones songs and Misfits songs. I know they used full Barre chords but with the strict downstrokes and fast changes and riffs it makes it a lot easier to play cleanly as well as it sounds more punchy as you said especially with the high speed playing and all the fuzzy distortion going on.
Oh man, yes, I’ll just assume that my former comment asking for more Homme led you to make this 😀. So cool, like you said, able to learn this from a teachers’ perspective. I could and should have probably been better of figuring this out on my own, but I just love watching you play, you make ME wanne play more and better. Looking forward to the follow up scale video! Take care!
Wow man, you really won me over at the end with what you said regarding ads and marketing. First time seeing a video from you, but certainly won't be the last.
Hommeify my face Eric! I kinda knew this trick but never took the time to look into what's happening. Josh is amazing!!! So are you!!! Thank you sir!!!
Can you do a video about writing parts for songs? Like "I have the coolest riff/progression in the world for my verses, how can I expand the song and write an okay chorus?" Something like that
good idea! I'll definitely ruminate on that! My first thought is this: I've never been able to summon creativity when I need it. More often, it's about capturing ideas when they happen and then sorting them out later into songs. Like, I may have a verse that floats around un-married for years until the right match comes along!
Eric love the Vox guitar .I have had my eye on these and it sounds as good as it looks especially through the 68 .Fender knocked it out of the park with the reissues.I got a 65 Deluxe Reverb reissue but I was drawn to the 68 series as I had a real one as a kid.keep on keeping on my musical brother. Always a clear informative style, seems to resonate with 1000,s
Thanks a mil for this. I played along to everything and you explain the how to so well that I easily was able to pause after the first chord and pretty much figure the rest out from there before watching the next part. I love the Sweeney Guitar Moves videos a lot and you were able to put forward a similar relaxed style of teaching in these videos. I do wish that you got into the polka side of things a bit and stuck to the down strums vs up strums technique. Coming from a drumming background myself, Josh's explanation and use of this to convey feeling through chords and melodies hit home a lot.
You are my favorite guitar teacher on RUclips. Been playing forever and writing music working on a solo demo right now. And I'm watching your theory videos and learning immense amounts of knowledge and wisdom, so thank you. I don't usually I have a guitar tuned in e standard around. I'm always a half step down or in some other tuning with my guitars. But I set up an acoustic in e, and I just bought a Jaguar that should be coming next week. So I can have a short scale tune to e while I play along with you and your lessons. Keep up the good work dude.
I have committed to going through all of your music theory video series... And seriously working to get everything I can out of each of them and planning on being a better guitar player than I've ever been by the end of this summer.
Video Suggestion!! Could you do one of These for Joey Santiago of the Pixies? I feel Like his playing is very influential For that 90s Grunge Sound! He went extra hard on bossanova and i would Love to See a Video on him since He is a very unique lead guitarist
He's one of my all-time faves! Thing is, there's no "tricks" to what he does - he just hears strange melodies and screeches, and them adds them to the song!
It's funny how sometimes we learn a song 'wrong' and it sticks with us. For the last 17 years I play 'Don't Let me Down' using this homme-like technique and using my pinky to reach some odd fun notes when on the 9th fret f#m. I was Homme-ing Harrison before it was cool!
Cool! My favourite player of recent years. Was a bit worried after the last video, glad to see you're still making videos. I enjoy playing a Homme-ly. Take a chord and find the Hommelogue
I have no shortage of guitar thoughts to share - it's really just lighting/noise issues that ruin vid shoots! I'm asking around my photography friends if they know of any silent and well-lit spaces I can rent :-)
Yo, another, earlier stoner rock example of cool uses of these kinds of voicings can be found throughout Monster Magnet's first full length release, Spine Of God, in particular on the tracks Pill Shovel, Nod Scene, Snake Dance, and the title track. There's also a better than the original cover of Grand Funk's "Sin's A Good Man's Brother". I think this album of theirs stands out in their discography in this regard because of the presence of John McCain on second guitar. He is basically unknown outside of psych rock circles and is a great player.
will have a closer listen to Spine of God with this in mind . thanks for mentioning it. Dopes is probably my fave and Magnet is just the best damn band in the galaxy
Wasn’t sure if you’d be back after last video but back you are with my favorite songwriter/guitarist. Love you breaking down all things different and interesting in the world of rock guitar. Josh’s scales are the real difference maker with his playing, along with the tuning down to C, and I can’t wait for you to play with this further. He’s a bit of a gear head as well and That VOX fits right in with the Homme aesthetic. Keep kicking ass.🤘
Thanks Eric - i got a lot out of that lesson. I enjoyed the punchy rhythm possibilities with muting strings and adding additional notes to color them. Also like the debrief outro with different examples to apply to different songs and chord progressions. Thanks for keeping it informative, accessible, and fun.
Have always loved gritty dirty chord voicings………use them in my solos all the time, as well as rhythm ……..can’t remember the last time I played a straight barre chord 🤣……….Eric, first time I saw you on YT, I thought…….”weirdo……” (sorry man ), but now I think “weirdo…….who knows his shit, knows how to communicate, and inspires me to understand and experiment” Keep it up! 😜😎👍
You definitely have a cool guitar collection. Great video as always. Cheers! I've got one of the cheapest (least expensive) Gretsch guitars on order... can't wait till I can start messing around with yer videos. It's a G2215-P90 Junior Jet - P-90 on the neck and a Broadtron/humbucker on the bridge... Looking forward to learning to play on that thing.
A.B.R. Playing = Always. Be. Riffin'. I try to play in such a way that I'm always fully committed to what I'm doing, even if it's providing little examples :-)
So he’s somewhere between a full chord and a power chord? Definitely seems to make his chord work punch. That is a great guitar there man, I’ve not seen that before
Sure you know this by now, but thought it was pretty cool you mentioned Careless Whisper & Eagles of Death Metal actually did record that song. Obviously Homme wasn’t playing guitar/vox but he’s banging out the drums.
Thanks to AI I found this video and, just like that, I'm subbed. Great video. This technique of muting half the strings for rythm and having a free finger for color is used quite often by Thom Yorke as well, in my experience.
Ok so the Back to Black take gave me chills. Can't wait to finish this move I'm in the middle of and open up the guitar cases again, but right now I'm on the bari uke, lol.
Cool as ferk Eric , cool as ferk I'm guiltily of trying to play too much, this has given me the idea limiting myself to 2 chords and lead in one area and to focus on rhythm. The big 100k is coming fast, it can only be a matter of a few weeks
That's funny...I jam that Amy Winehouse song with a friend who can sing it great... and I play the chords the exact same way.. Great lesson as usual. Always learn stuff..southen man is what I got from this nice one...the other month I learnt the stevie wonder tune you did and I been fiddling with that ..Great channel this ..Nice one
Great video man! Could you do a follow up video with the scales that he plays (like you hint at the end of the video)? They just sound so unique and I can’t figure them out throughout the whole guitar neck
Punchy as a punchy thing. A great technique to get down. I've got to work on that muting! Great point about the Mustang being a good vehicle for coping with stretchy extensions, one of the reasons why i've been looking closely at the current range from Fender and even Squire. The vintage, MIJ and CIJ models are way too pricey for my purse right now. Following a motorcycle accident a handful of years ago, when I blew up my left forearm and wrist, I've been left with reduced dexterity and little feeling in my left pinky. So I'm having to work hard to adapt. There's much to be said for sheer bloody mindedness and determination! Homework time. Peace and Pizza (a heady combo)!
Eric, amazing content, I would love to see a video about Daniel Kessler, I've always found his guitar playing so simple yet sophisticated. Cheers from Bolivia.
I've done things like this for a while but got into it via shell chords (root, third, seventh), which are common jazz voicings like G7 (3x34xx), etc. I play a lot of old timey tunes like Bye-Bye Blackbird, All of Me, etc., and these really work well on them. They work in blues well, too. This is pretty cool to apply to different chord concepts, though. Full barres take up way too much sonic space a lot of the time.
@@EricHaugenGuitar They are great at supporting the vocalist while outlining the harmony. They usually lead to nice voice leadings, too. One thing I like about shells is how speedy I can be. In a lot of ways they're like the partial chords used in metal. Big barres and other five and six note chords belong around a campfire and rarely anywhere else.
I've been playing like this day one because of a twooba video where she just says to play with your pinky so it doesn't get bored, changed my life
Twoooobaaaaa naaaatiooooon!!
Cmon man r u kidding You didnt expect that all that time while You r playing
I didn't play with my pinky for years and now I'm reteaching my self and going out of my way to use my pinky all the time. I had 2 friend's teach me to play punk when I was a kid and neither played with their pinkys.
@Adonis Mieszko Vouvali best guitar RUclipsr
Love this dude's teaching style and taste in music.
Josh's chord phrasings for "Bandoliers" are other-worldly
Homme says in that interview that he learned to play guitar through Polka, and that explains a lot.
Incorporating music written for other instruments does interesting things to guitar sounds.
Josh Homme is one of my musical heros, thank you so much for this lesson!!!
“Guitar moves” is Matt Sweeney’s series. So good.
I’ve just found this channel, it’s ace! Lovely seeing someone teaching rhythm playing instead of blues/rock pentatonic noodling!
I was struggling to decipher the noisy video and Bam! My man breaks it down. This dude is a gem.
I stole these barre chord ideas years ago without realizing where I got it from. makes sense because I listened to so much QOTSA in my formative years
"I Sat By the Ocean" is a classic CCR rhythm by Josh. And the trill on one of those notes, whether the 6th or whatever, was very "Paper Planes"/"Straight to Hell" too.
the tone you get with the Vox and the Fender!!!!
Okay, so this is hilarious: When you pronounced his name, as a Canadian I thought, no way, that has to be pronounced 'omm. So I did some digging, and apparently in an interview I found, he says when he's outside the US, he pronounces it 'omm, and when he's in the US it's HOMee... Omg hahaha
I'm in the US and have always pronounced it 'omm. This new pronunciation blew my mind. Maybe it's the three years of French I had in school, but 'omm just seems how it should sound.
@@joliveres When I first heard of him I pronounced it 'omm until I was "corrected" lol
Did not know that
neither pronunciation is likely to be correct given his surname is Norwegian
@@yah-wehritebergstein3718 Depends on how you define correct. As he's at least third generation American it's entirely likely that the pronunciation would shift from the Norwegian, but I'd argue that however he pronounces it is how it's supposed to be pronounced, as it is after all his name! He definitely pronounces it the same as Eric does in this video. He tends to introduce himself (in interviews and whatnot) as Joshua.
after experiencing some concerning pains/minor tendinitis, i switched to short scale guitars exclusively so those types of stretches wouldn't tax my aging hands and so far it has worked as i hoped. i have a'1965 mustang and youre right eric -a good stang is tough to beat....
I use this technique all the time when playing Ramones songs and Misfits songs.

I try to keep my little corner of the internet as non-annoying as possible!
Gold. Rhythm guitar forever.
You may wanna be sitting down for this, but Eagles of Death Metal (Band composed of Josh and a friend of his) have covered Careless Whisper...
I gotta track down a clip of that!
Hommeify my face Eric! I kinda knew this trick but never took the time to look into what's happening. Josh is amazing!!! So are you!!! Thank you sir!!!
Why the hell have I only just found your channel?!? Subscribed within 2 mins of watching this video. Love it.
