This is a great idea, but, sorry, the reverb sound barely comes through on the recording, unless you set up for a very long reverb or crank up the dwell. (Or it’s just my ears or something? ) The reverb in the advertising on UA-cam and Bias FX stuff is clearly audible to me, though. Your mic seems to have nice reverb for voice, unless I’m mistaken. Are you playing your amp through the mic, or directly to your recording device.
Thanks Lee cool lesson on double stops. 😊
Learning is like water dripping into a bucket, drip by drip the bucket will fill with water, little by little you learn, one day your learning ‘bucket’ will become full, the moral being , small steps enable you to eventually walk a long way, just takes time.
Happened to stumble across this love what you had to say it really gave me a lot to think about thank you
Quit talking about me. Lol. Another one that resonates brother. Real talk.
Yep distraction and jumping various lessons but need to stop and focus practice on thing for the week
you sir are an incredible educator- 🙏
Thank you!
I don't care about the why, i just want to play blues....thanks for the licks
Great lesson. Thanks so much !
Bloody good ! Thank you.
Lick 2 or the BB King box is pattern 3 not pattern 2 in the minor pentatonic. Which overlaps with pattern 4 in the major pentatonic. BB king and others use that spot to mix minor and major. Pattern 2 of the minor pentatonic is the Albert King box and referred to as the house of blues.
Thank you very much. Your teaching VDO is very helpful
You are welcome @sudhiwatburusphat2042 !
Lesson link doesn’t work…😩
Here's the link. ua-cam.com/video/aenrWu8c19I/v-deo.htmlsi=S_nIMsTU2RPVOLJ6 They were working for me, but I'll keep an eye out.
Simply explained combaining theory with practice. Thanks for sharing:)
Glad it was helpful! @Gitarapiotr
Nice post. Great teaching Lee ! Thank you
Very welcome, @piperofsimms. It's great to see you here!
Your awesome thank s
You are! Thanks for playing along! @jerrycase4584
Great!! But how do i play it in a song anyone have tips?
Nice dude there, esentual for at least the blues 👍 anyway great lesson but there's no short cuts I'm afraid it's gona take a lot of practice I know it sucks but has to be done
Thanks @malcolmedwards296 !
Loving your videos lee , it's so much better to understand than just copy someone note for note , great lesson thanks for sharing
My pleasure! Thanks for watching! Keep me updated on your progress @skipjacktunainacan
I love the Les Paul in your intro!! Why? Because I have the same model!! lol.
@rockerbuck967 They are great, aren't they! Not the fanciest guitar but it plays and sounds fantastic!
That was a useful lesson. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful! @bonzo1928
really gotta figure out my guitar oneday
This is an awesome lesson gonna get started on this
Great to hear, @iananslow494 Thanks for playing along!
Keep up the great work. I really like your approach to explaining without getting too into theory!
Thank you!
Thanks for a very helpful video!
You are welcome, @gregsterc5294. Thanks for watching!
"A three word letter,Yes." A break has been cut for this mistake. Good talk. I'm about to play what I consider a "pro level' gig a month from now. Something I haven't done in a long time. This whole confidence thing does indeed come up. I'm going for it. Thanks for the wisdom!
Where were you when MEL BAY WAS TEACHING ME THE WRONG NOTES? Wish we had videos in the fifties,sixties.Your doing a fine job for starters.
Playing is a skill.Teaching how to play is a very difficult,because so much depends on communication ability of the teacher.I think you are a rare commodity,you teach as well as you play.This is something that makes you complete as a guitarist and a decent person willing to contribute to your fellow musicians,For this you have my deep respect,and thanks!
Well put together and clear. Thanks
Great blues lesson Lee! I'm one step closer to graduating from lifetime advanced beginner because of your well laid out, and easy to follow foot steps.
That's fantastic @bulr24! Keep me updated!
Very cool 👍👍
This is so fantastic. Thank you. More often than not when I watch your instruction I have a 'wait, is that what that is/done' moment!
thanks great lesson
Thank you. Great lesson. I'm gonna watch it 100 times, probably.
You are welcome, Barry! Thanks for watching!
Top Notch Guitar Teacher. Even I can understand this.👍
Awesome! Thanks, johnny!
Thanks for the "why".......it helps immensely 🎉
You are welcome, and thanks for watching! More to come!
Yeah nice,this makes me wanna pick up my Fender which i haven't played in ages... relearn /learn some stuff. Black aswell, black pick guard with hot Jeff Beck pickups. Ive just been on a hard rock/metal fix lately with the other guitars but this is cool. Thanks bro👍
Hi there I just caught this lesson from your academy, I like it so I might hang out here a while and learn more cool guitar licks and stuff from you, thanks ❤
Nice work !!! Is this the A major Penatatonic ?
Finally someone I can follow.
Spark is a pain in the ass! Worse connection to a PA for any little amp (including their cabinet! Look it up online and watch the noise complaints coming in)....stupid idiots needed to install a line out or XLR out. The speakers are not warm for an acoustic sound. I'll take a fishman ...I have a fishman! The fishman kicks it's ass....most of the tones are not useable in a real setting. This amp is not warm in acoustic mode...and I'm not spending a crap loud of money to make it thick. This amp has pissed me off in too many ways.
It's designed to be a home amp with fun software (amps, drums, play-along, etc), not for hooking up to PA systems or playing to crowds. Do your research and know what you're buying to reduce ass pain.
Thanks for the shoutout Lee. Super pleased you have a functional trem now.
Haven’t even watched this yet (I’m 2 minutes in) and after my comment on the other video - wanna say thanks in advance, just know this is gonna be full of useful stuff!
5:45 Lick 1 full speed + tab 5:58 lick 2 demo 6:40 lick 2 tab 8:40 lick 3 9:45 tab
Fantastic that you can create this tone, but what use is this video if you don't show us the settings!
Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!
Ya know you can buy the literal emg Gilmour pickups.. and they are wonderful
About time you popped into my feed. Subbed.
