Allen Hinds sounds like Holdsworth with a blues/rock harmonic sense. Killer player...such an amazing touch.
Allen is such an underrated player.. on top of being the single kindest person on earth..GIT 92-93 One of the people that really opened my eyes while I was there.. great great teacher..
Thank you sir
Had to post here...I come from a family of professional musicians...I must give respect where respect is due...No matter what he engages in...it has a bit of "seduction", encouragement and confidence in it, it beckons exploration and enthusiastic interest... and....The way Hinds plays, no matter which genre he is embracing at the time, just makes your soul "happy"...such a gifted guitarists!! Thanks for the post...this guy is an asset to any artist he collaborates/performs with..just takes it up a notch or several!! Ha Ha..go Hinds!!They say Preach brotha...preach..to this vid..I say...teach brotha teach... Best to you out there who strive to give us the songs!!
The actual exercise is from 2:10-3:12
HOLY SHIT, THE TONE!, THE NOTES, JIZZ!
beautiful beautiful subtle style of playing and LOVING the phrasing style...I Would An Album From This Guy Anyday
Allen should be wearing a cape. He's a super-hero guitar god!
Smooth playing and perfect Tone.. LUv this guys work!
Thanks for this great clip MI !! This is the first time I've heard/seen
Allen Hinds...OMG!!!
One of the best demos on legato I've heard in some time. Good tone, well explained, guitar isn't pulled up to your neck, and not a lot of chatter. Thanks!
Great teacher & very humble person!. Really Miss MI!!.
One of my fave teachers from M.I. .....great musician!!!
You're an excellent teacher!
Great Learning Session!
It sounds like Chris Poland! Allen is a great guitar player same as Poland.
WOW....MAN....THAt's quite a mix...!!!!!!!!
love how he phrases with that extensive use of legato
Great playing and tone... lovely
He's got some smooth legato with a tone reminiscent of Eric Johnson.
yes he do
Sounded more Brett Garsed-ish imo
Such a cool style - great player!
Awesome!!!!
Awesome!
His Tone🙆♂️🤘!
Very nice. Allan Holdsworth does it better than everyone, but it's always cool to hear that tone and those particular licks.
Sweet relaxed vibrato.
Monster player...thanks for sharing!
Killer tone and phrasing.
Yes man, youre awesome.
I thought the name of the video was alien hands lmao. love this technique, eager to sit down and start playing with it once I know some patterns.
Yeah, me too haha
legato is just playing without picking/ or with limited picking. The notes are not that important to the style, but knowing your scales is.
Gracias !!
that tone!!!!
He's one of my top guitar players.
A Great player and cool guy
He used to use Xotic AC and EP boosts to get that tone, some compression too. SMooth!!!!
You're tone kind of reminds me of Chris Polands tone. And that's a monster tone!
i just learned that actually, from a guthrie video, i noticed it helps with endurance and finger strength as well. just checked out your channel as well, great riffing!
I remember when Allen Hinds replaced Ted Hall of the Fents back in the eighties, after Ted fell and broke his arm. He was producing Hiroshima but came and did the Fents gigs with Adam Holzman and the then current bass and drum players. He didn't fall right in but did another two or three gigs before he bailed to do Hiroshima and his own amazing thing.
Adam went on to work with Chaka Khan, Wayne Shorter, and Miles Davis. Now he is with Steven Wilson and they sound as good as any band can.
Using the 4 notes per string approach is golden if you want to use legato to the fullest!
Is Allan Holdsworth but more diatonic
And with bends
And pull-offs
postlove that was a myth, Allan does pull offs
Blaine Mendez no, pull offs are bad.
Kirk Wahmmet why? What’s the difference between pull offs and “lift offs”
Good lesson, thnx.
you´re right!
oh god, this guy ahs angel tone.
Dorian sounds so good
I always dreamed to graduate the Musician Institute since 1993 ...
Nice video, great playing. Reminds me of Robben Ford's playing a bit.
Damn that's some good ass tone.
Very tasty playing. Nice to use the legato stuff for more than just flamethrower shred.
what delay timing is the best for that thing shown(exercise)
and do you set it manually to a metronomes ticking,
so it blends and smooths out the legato and will a noise gate help
and how dry is the reverb, and type.
I've got that very same amp tone out of my line6 helix
and the Les paul studio, but alas the guitar'its not set up for
Holdsworth-ian legato flurrys..yeah that amp tone is nice
it was hidden away only came across it by a lucky chance.
as I favour clean-ish rhythmic full tones
that's a sound I like.
that early 50's tone with those hidden sonic harmonic undertones
that bites the hand that feeds it that cuts through even at low volumes..
how I do miss my old 30w bassman head an cab lost for 30 odd yrs.
it was a sonic beasty aye just a bit of digging in and wow
martin taylor makes these guys look like beginners!! simple as that!!
@MaurofdVzla We understand. This is why we have scholarships and financial aid available for aspiring students. You can always consider that window of opportunity. :)
Thats some nice legato'in!
hey briliant video! what type is this les paul? like a 58 / just a standerd?cheerz
Really splitting the atom here!! ooo ooo wee!
Man, if this guy stopped using pull offs and used only hammer ons, he would be completely like Holdsworth. I love that tone. It sounds like a tube amp.
Wish i had Paul Gilberts pinky..
Loved the vid. ✌️
Are your strings set very close to the neck for this style... like MUCH lower than normal? Thanks. Great lesson. Thanks.
does c# minor triads form progression cord from c# diminished?
what setting should your amp be Im asking because whenever I try legato it just doesn't hold (and its not my finger strength) Please help :)
sounds like allan holdsworth mixed with eric johnson and joe bonomassa
does someone know how to get a hold of backingtracks in this genre? would be awsome if could help me:) fred ut
He's using the notes of E Dorian, the same scale he uses during the backing track in the whole video.
For me the key is your sound. What are u using exactly to get that saturated sound? I can hear a delay and some treble rolled off somewhere. Thanks
A MH fan boy perhaps? Hinds is one of a few that play with a true legato feel and technique.
@musiciansinstitute What are the requirements to study jazz guitar in GIT? Do you have to be able to play jazz before coming to GIT or you learn when you go there?If you have to know how to play jazz, in what level should i know it? Thanks!
4:27 what scale did he use? i mean the ascending lick that he plays
pretty good
Distortion can be a deathtrap. You can manage it if your goal is to get a sustained and sweet- smooth tone. If you over do it, it won't sound as pretty as this guy's.
@Hydrefyricon (Decent amount of Dist + Bridge pickup selector + Zero treble on the Amp)... tweak along this setting, and you might like what you hear : )
My legato technique is just as good as his-In my dreams! :-)
@musiciansinstitute How much can the scholarship pay for, and how many people win it?
Check out Allen's playing with Gino Vanelli - what a beast...
Hi. Does anyone know which stringgauge, Allen uses?
I get you need left hand strength and control but how important is having low action on your guitar? do you need super low action or can it be done with just average action?
Low action helps, but too low of action actually makes it difficult to do cleanly...the first finger must mute both strings adjacent to the string being played...if strings are too low you'll end up barring the next higher (thinner string). So low action, but still high enough to avoid this inadvertent barring.
does someone know where i can find backingtracks in this style for free? thanks for your help:) fred ut
this technic cannot work without good pups, compressor, big frets etc can it?
His tone is amazing...and from a les paul, who'd have guessed?
are you meant to pull the string with the given finger when pulling off
Аlen only use pick here, no finger picking? Nice playing, great sound, back track?
@musiciansinstitute My 13-year-old son, who started playing a year ago and is now transcribing Hendrix tunes (!), DREAMS of going to GIT. Absent financial aid of some kind, there is no way this would ever happen. Could you direct me to some info about the aid programs available?
A geologic era ago, when I was an aspiring session player, GIT was my dream, too. I'd love to make it come true for my son.
🎸
you want to pluck the string with your left hand while pulling off, instead of just taking your finger off the string, pluck it decently hard in a downwards motion. good pull off's are key in making your legato sound bubbly like a saxophone.
Heyyy that's a Ritchie Kotzen lick :O !!
Yes, kind of. But find some basic videos here on youtube. Fx Justin Sandercoe - he has really good lessons. He calls it flick offs, though, but it is the same technique. Search for legato Justin Sandercoe.
that doesnt mean he doesnt sound like him or vice versa. The eric johnson/bonamassa mannerisms. EJ and bonamassa sound similar. Both in tone and left hand. bends as well
👍👍👍
What about Holdsworths “reverse hammer ons”?
It seems like he's doing that, doesn't it? i don't know but it looks like his first finger is coming off the fretboard it the first exercise
The meat is from 2:10 until 4:00. The rest is demonstration/playing.
...and sounds like Brett Garsed too...right?
Awesome taste!
This guy is incredibly tasty like vintage Larry Carlton with actual chops!
Reminds me of Brett Garsed
Using a compressor?
@musiciansinstitute I have the same problem, if I could get a student loan, it;d be a different story, but the fee cost is prohibitive. I also live in the UK so if I earn money here, it would mean doing about 3-4 years work because of the lousy exchange rate, if I earned the money in america, I wouldnt get anywhere because of the awful minimum wage.
Because they raised cost of degrees in UK, I'm prob gonna study in australia instead.
what kind if pick is he using?
one made of plastic...
+Guitarists Suck I am dying laughing laughing
@MaurofdVzla Hey, why not?!
think about Brett Garsed....
I have to ask, since i really didn't understand Marshall in his video, what really is the legato he is trying to explain? i don't understand how you can have legato with no pull off's, as he stated in his video. he went way too fast in my opinion in his explanation.
He even looks like Alan!
I read your name as "Alien Hands"
Accurate lol
is it just me that find it hard to play the stretched low notes while standing?...
I swear I read Alien Hands lol
Thank you, but as you said, its hard to explain, cuz i didn't understand a word you said lol. Thank you very much for replying and trying to explain it. sounds to me like you could make a better explanation video.
