I feel so validated by this video. I've been teaching my students for years about how important dynamics, vibrato, bending, timing, groove and feel are. Beautiful video! Knowledge and experience are earned through hard work.
1. I love your playing, your music style... I heard the first measure and immediately I decided to stay. 2. The only one saying the truth: Find a good teacher, persistence, consistency and INVEST TIME! There is no magic.... patience IT TAKES YEARS!!! Man I honor you for saying the truth!!! Hope to hear more from you, your music!!!
Great video Jack. I was gutted to be away when you did the weekend workshop with guitarvivo in the summer. Hoping you'll do another one in 2024. Cheers!
Every time I have the opportunity to catch one of your videos, I feel blessed by what I have just watched. You have become a staple in my guitar journey. Thanks, Jack, for making it fun to learn, and I for one, would add you to the list of names you mentioned in this video. HNY my friend!
I love the improvisation that begins and ends this demo, mainly for its melodicity and cleanliness 🎸🎼🎵🎶. It's a bit of a summary illustrating the points that you address later, especially point 4 concerning time precision. Thank you for your precious advices, Mr. Jack Gardiner 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻!!! Again, Happy New Year and we wish you the best for 2024 💪🏻👌🏻✍🏻✌🏻🤘🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻!!! ☮💙
Just discovered your content today! I love your thoughts on arpeggios and man I've been playing for 25 years and man there is so much I could still be better at. Thanks for the great vids brotha!!
0:29 whoa! and the speed you go from bridge to neck pick up......awesome Jack. Great tips.....learn the notes is #1 always...everything just becomes somehow easier/linked once you know the fretboard.
Hey Jack I just wanted to say thank you dude for this. This video really hit home with me. After watching hundreds and hundreds of youtube videos, downloading free PDF's, and screenshotting and cropping dozens upon dozens of free online lessons with tablature this video really hit home on so many levels. Too much to type here but I have a feeling you would totally understand. So again just thank you for all that you do. You are also a killer player man. Just absolutely slaying it!! From New Orleans , Louisiana...Hail!!!🤘🤘🤘
"A guitar is something you can hold and love and it's never going to bug you. But here's the secret about the guitar - it's defiant. It will never let you conquer it. The more you get involved with it, the more you realize how little you know." --- you better know who said this if you call yourself a guitarist :)
I've been following your work for years. You became not only an amazing guitar player but also a wise human being. Thanks for sharing your music and valuable tips Jack !!
Thank you for this class, it is going to be very useful for me, you are totally correct the ears and the brain accept the chromatic notes because they are played on time, brilliant.
Embrace the suck! Yes! When I was in music school, we had to play in front of all the faculty and staff regularly. There were lots of puddles left on the stage. After a year, we all started seeing what we did well and developed confidence. Best thing I learned in Jazz Improv was to limit yourself. That's where the creativity lives.
These points mentioned are Absolutely valid for the journey of improvisation. I am glad to see that people care in this! I personally started my log procedure since this year using RUclips channel for my personal growth. Hope to see more musicians focus on improvising feelings than Technics. Loved your message!
My biggest hurdle was needing to know my note names. Took me forever because Im awful at saying things backwards. What helped me the most was using drill software to learn the notes randomly. Wasnt too long I was about to spot all the same letters at once whenever I needed to find them. It wasnt as hard as I thought it was going to be. I spent years learning modes and cage and all that did was make things worse. Second thing that helped me was learning how to groove. I use to spend so much time trying to write melodies based on sound. VS learning to dance on the notes.
Great video Jack! One question I have on point 1 about learning from your favorite guitarists/transcribing their music/solos. Should we throw tabs out the window? Or should they be used as a guide to see what’s going on then transcribe those tabs to notes to understand the relationship of the notes being played/techniques being used? I’ve been taking lessons for a bit now and have started transcribing solos by ear and it’s been super helpful, just curious on your take on this. Thanks!
Really informative, inspiring and well communicated points! The outside improv was mind blowing. I fall into the guilty category of neglecting the fundamentals, trying to sprint before I can walk with technique etc. But working hard to improve them! A lot of useful comments below too :)
Interesting video. Improvising sounds impressive and is fun to do with other musicians however even with improvising you still need to know how to compose your music. For example: understanding the 8 bar structures like the Period and sentence, "call and response" or Hybrid clauses, how to write a section that is unbalanced metrically but balanced harmonically. I never hear modern guitarists discuss composition. Not even the greats like Beato, Vai etc. No one ever gives away the secret composition sauce which absolutely exists. One thing is for sure on my guitar journey, nothing made me sound better than when i finally got a handle on how to compose better music using proper forms and understanding functional harmony. 🎸
thanks a lot! very inspiring video! As a 58 years old guitar player... I think about the "health" aspect of playing. I guess it would be my point 11😊 posture, breathing, listening, playing super slooow...staying relaxed with the hands, arms, shoulders. not to force any exercise or technique. etc... I think this can be important over the long term.
I know this might be a weird question in a guitar video, but can you tell us what mic are you using when you speak? Cause I assume is a lapel mic but the quality is excellent!
My Takeaway: 1. Transcribe another musician's piece of music. Analyze note choice & chord type. Music is a language, it really takes time, so be patient. 2. Know notes in your fretboard (all of them, not only E string) 3. Fingerboard visualization (CAGED/3note per string/interval) 4. Time feel 5. Subtleties in Phrasing (vibrato, bending, slide, etc) 6. Technique. Upgrade your arsenal in order to mimic more advanced ideas. 7. Play with another musicians, so we can learn other perspective of instruments. Understand guitarist position in a band, etc. 8. Find a solid teacher (u can find it on RUclips Channel), and stick on it. Too much information can be confusing for you. 9. Record yourself, review it with brutally honest attitude 10. Embrace the suck, its okay to be bad in the early time of practice. Note for me, i would like to start practicing technical things first (point 1-6), having a solid foundation, then at some mastery level, i'll move on to 7, 8, and even 9 in order to evaluate my guitar playing (especially for point 4,5). Tip 10 is a mindset for every practice that i have. Motoric (muscle memory, technique) : 1,4,5,6 Visualization (brain thingy) : 2,3 Maybe learning roadmap will be like this: Monday - M Tuesday - V Wednesday - M Thursday - V Friday - M Saturday - M Sunday - M
I think a good tip to becoming better at improvising would be to sing what you play. Connect what you hear in your head with the instrument in realtime. It helps form a more intimate and cohesive bond between the player’s spontaneous thoughts and execution on the instrument.
You mention a lot of compositional guitar videos are mimed-- would you be able to cover how you live record your guitar audio and synchronize it with the video?
Hey man! For sure! My workflow is pretty easy - I’m recording all of my audio live in Logic. At the same time, I record the video file on my Sony Camera. I bounce the audio file in Logic to a .wav file and import the .mov/.mp4 video file from the camera to my laptop. Then in Final Cut Pro, I ‘auto synchronise’ my two files and mute the camera file’s audio (so you only hear the audio I recorded live in Logic). You can sync it manually if they don’t sync up correctly with the ‘auto synchronise’ function in Final Cut!
I really think that one more important point is missing: CREATIVITY, means to develop your own and self style, to create your own lines, licks, solos, etc. and write them down, will definitely help you feel even more confidence while improvising, much more than being always working hard to copy others technique, style, ideas, etc.
Note names: Yeah, I used to be so lazy about that even though I would play quite well I was stuck in shapes without being more aware of where I was. I'll say it again. Note names. lol
My bro is a beast at guitar, I've always looked up to his playing. I've always just made up my own songs and would always just improvise my solos, years later I went to my brothers to jam. I put in a track and was like go ahead man I'll follow, he was like I don't know that song, I was like just make it up bro. He was like idk how man I'll have to write something, my mind was blown. All I've ever done is improv and my hero didn't even know how even as perfect as he could play a joe satriani solo...
Thanks Jack for the great tips and for the masterclass !! The fretboard visualization with interval approach is a game changer ! I would love to see you improvise on similar exercise as Alex Hutchings is doing live : adding random chords to create a wtf chords progression and improvise on it 😊 I love doing it too ! Something like this: ruclips.net/video/mLoPnOrGIFI/видео.htmlsi=8RwNNkEW8rYfcWXv
@@JackGardiner Damn Jack... that build up was insane i'm definitely gonna check it out and thanks a lot for the precious advice on improvisation ! By the way, what scales should we learn and focus on for fusion style so that we can have solid vocabulary structure ?
I love and watch Jacks playing very much - unfortunately, to my knowledge, there is no bootleg live performance of his band where the sound is up to par with his incredible playing. Maybe this could be food for thought for the maestro himself? Do we need an authorized an mastered live performance from him in the near future? I sure hope to see this happen … Kind regards
What a stupid and snide comment. If you actually googled, you would see there are plenty of live shows of Jack's playing including one where he was in guitar idol.
I give you an example of what I was refering to: Even the »Jack and Owane Live in Krakau« Show, posted by Jack Gardiner 7 months ago has - at least to my ears - no such a sound quality as his live home-in-the-studio-recordings. I love the fact that these performances are out there, but there is a difference in quality that is - again to my ears - not minimal, but recognizable. There is no need to change that, of course, but there is room for improofment. You could, for example, compare this with the likes of Steve Vais »Where the wild things are« and come to the conclusion that the live sound there was captured better. Of course that is a question of money, effort and recources - and no absolute necessity. I can live with his studio recordings alright, but I thought this feedback could be encouragement for even better results in the live department too … and if you personally don’t like that, that’s fine as well … Kind regards@@pineapple-eu1pt
@@andreasstefankindl8248 You realize that the Jack and Owane stuff is exactly the same as his music videos. He purposely makes his compositions melodic and not flashy???? His improvisations and everything else is real, and there are a plefora of videos of him jamming at namm or with others that showcase the same licks.
@@andreasstefankindl8248 Also Steve Vai doesn't improvise on the spot lol so comparing him to a fusion jazz guitar player makes zero sense..........They are two different musicians in different genres. I can tell you're a beginner guitarist by that comment.
Counterpoint to "music is a language". Languages allow you to describe specific things to other people. In every language you can convey "Please go to the shops and buy some eggs". You cannot in music. Music is a sensory experience, closer to cooking IMO - particular ingredients and recipes produce particular sensations. A good cook knows how to produce pleasing, adventurous or challenging sensory experiences.
I noticed you have commented the same stuff on multiple videos of mine so clearly your ears don’t hurt that much, unless you’re into musical torture? If you don’t hear ‘musicality’ or ‘feel’ I can’t help you 🤷♂️ - we clearly hear and ‘feel’ melody differently. Maybe one day your ears will mature, you’ll let go of this ‘feel’ excuse and hopefully learn a thing or two to help with your own playing. 😉
One important thing to remember is stop watching so many RUclips videos and just pick that darn guitar up 😅
We all need to repeat that to ourselves daily 😅
Truth!! Or be playing something while you watch!
shut up n play yer damn guitar - BB King or someone

hint *learn drums*, or get really good at programming drums, or play with a really great drummer, or all of the above
Need the backing track!
That intro was JG at his best
Plus the fact that Tom Quayle tunes in 4ths
Woww !!! since when you use that fast alternate picking that much ?? insaneeeee love it !!!

Going to try to humble my self and see what happens, let’s do this.
how does knowing the note names change in alternate tunings?
starting at 949,all of that passage is basically leading with lil finger on left hand...I have such struggles with my undersized fourth finger
The tone in the intro is just designed to show off that picking clarity :D

Great question and answer. I always wondered how it’s being accomplished.
Gah some days you just feel like Jack is making videos for you specifically.
please a EP with you and tom quayle some gnarly fusion stuff

Counterpoint to "music is a language". Languages allow you to describe specific things to other people. In every language you can convey "Please go to the shops and buy some eggs".
