Excellent demo! Wow, you captured one of the major elements of Hendrix style with such a straightforward, understandable presentation. Working around those inversions is the perfect way to grab some of the most easily recognizable Hendrix sounds. He was the master of using that approach as can be readily seen in The Wind Cries Mary, for example. Also, your instruction is clear, uncluttered and easy to follow. Thank you for posting a lesson with such valuable content. It's like finding a little gold nugget in a mostly barren field.
i was sitting make some pentatonik lessons and dont know here at home :-) ...i had no idea for improvisation ...i made thies video frome you Robert and it giv's me more than i was thinking . thank you and God bless you Robert
I a m glad you are using the camera in that position. Truly it is the best way to show your fine lessons, Robert. I hope your audience will agree in sincerity on this. The other way you are using is fine, but for us older people the angle view make the mind into a little state of slow reaction of the mind to actually follow along.
This is easily the best explanation of this typical Hendrix--and Curtis Mayfield--style of chordal playing that I've seen!! E major by the way is the key "Hey Joe" is in, so... Thanks!!
Thankyou for the great lesson. I have been searching for a complete course on hendrix chordal embellishments for a long time. Hope you do some more lessons on YT and on your site, cheers, ta
I always knew Jack Johnson was very much inspired by Jimi Hendrix' guitar style, but this makes it so clear to me, wow! I mean, listen to Wasting Time, a great example of the style. Anyway, thanks a lot for the lesson, looking forward to being able to incorporate more of this technique into my own playing!
Fabulous Lesson, so well played and clearly explained. It sure is hard to beat the sound of that beautiful Suhr guitar through a Suhr amp! The bridge pickup looks different from the other two, Robert, did you swap out the stock pickup for another one?
You can look at it as major pentatonic scale with root on G string_9 fret.(for E major barre chord on 7 fret A string, A shape) Works well too. Then, it all depends upon your choice of notes from the scale and embellishments with hammerons, double stips and slides. Double stops are great cause you can still make the chord ring out slightly.. Holding onti rhythm. (My english bad, sorry)
FWIW, if you happen to clip the low E at the end of that first lick (like I just did because I’m trying it on my acoustic) then the major 3rd with the octave root sounds particularly good...
It's showing where the root, 3rd and 5th are in one position of the neck. This idea is focused around these chord tones. It doesn't work to write the whole idea in a neck diagram, so I provided it as a helper to see where these important notes are on the fretboard.

Robert has some of the best lessons on the tube!!!
Very nice teaching style. It's nice to actually hear about the theory behind the sound explained in such a laid back manner.
Robert is super chill....and ultra clear...he is a great teacher.
Pretty sure your simple way of explaining inversions in this lesson will allow it to stick with me. Good stuff.

I really loved the slowed down version of the lick. Great lesson
Always the best lessons on this technique 👌

Hey Robert, very cool licks. Great class. Greetings from Brazil.

Thankyou for the great lesson. I have been searching for a complete course on hendrix chordal embellishments for a long time. Hope you do some more lessons on YT and on your site, cheers, ta
Really great lesson, some seminal technique broken down into a nice "chunk" (which is a natural memory technique). Thanks for the time and effort.
Good one. Nicely shown and played
Excellent Lesson . Great video quality and camera angle. Thanks Robert, I am happy to have discovered you :)

Nice lesson I might join your Guitar Academy. Going to try triads right now thanks
Enjoyable and well taught, thumbs up and I'm hitting the bell, I saw you for the first time today 2/26/21.
The licks can also be derived with the caged system and the pentatonic scales.
Nice job. Thanks for the breakdown.
Brilliant thanks so much I am enjoying practicing opening a new world to me Robert

Man thanks for this lesson. I've been wondering how to hit those triads easier

Thanks.
Thanks
Very cool!
Good stuff👍✌
Great lesson Robert. Say...how does Suhr get away without using a string tree on the upper strings?
John Suhr knows... something about the angle and proper nut cutting.
Thank you! Sorry for staring at your guitar the whole time!
James Johnson I know right? Those Suhr's are sick.
Oh man! Maybe when I grow up I can afford one.

The diagram isnt moving . What is it relating to ?
It's showing where the root, 3rd and 5th are in one position of the neck. This idea is focused around these chord tones. It doesn't work to write the whole idea in a neck diagram, so I provided it as a helper to see where these important notes are on the fretboard.
thank you very munch
GREAT lesson... also, that's a nice shirt. What kind is it?
What pickups are in the guitar?
DiMarzio in the bridge. The other two are Suhr FL single coils.
Спасибо!!!
