      @Apollo Music imagine being so stupid to think that you can’t tell that this tone is incredible even though it was recorded on a phone.

    It is interesting that he says stretch. It actually makes sense.

    • @kipponi
      @kipponi 4 роки тому

      Or does it? I stretch after my runs.
      Bending is more used. I am okay with stretching too.
      Vibrato is very personal in guitar playing. Invariable how fast or slow it is. Or how wide.

  • @RobertBakerGuitar
    @RobertBakerGuitar 4 роки тому +14

    Another amazing lesson. I've been trying to do the no thumb on the neck vibrato for awhile.

  • @thereallbking

    Majority of these comments are about guitar and tone but the food bank comments at the end are the strongest words to ever come out of a musicians mouth. I have personally seen friends dig through trash bins at my old middle school for food (CHILDREN of ALL ethnicities) . anything helps guys..... 1 quarter might be nothing to those reading this but that quarter is a fortune to the unfortunate that are silhouettes to us..... walk next to us... reside and act like nothing is wrong next to OUR children..... thank you for those words dude !

    Thank You Eric, at local Kroeger store here Oregon, when you are done checking out the cashier will ask you would you like to round up to the next dollar to go to the local food bank, and a lot of people are very willing to do so, and its generated thousands of dollars. I always give thinking you know I may need that some day.

    wow....let me hold a few cameras for you. Good call on the food banks, we all need to eat. And you need a volunteer, with 3 cameras on tripods, to help you out. But great job, you're a wonderful man, a great ear for good music. And it is wonderful that you're thinking of others, in so many ways. Thank you so much. Even when I don't play along, I feel blessed to just hear your wandering around on the guitar. You are an inspiration !

    Thank you, Eric, for sharing your knowledge and wisdom. Your lessons are fantastic, super helpful, and draw attention to a useful cause. You have been making a significant difference in peoples' lives in so many ways. I can only speak for myself, but hearing the Tones album changed my life. Your sounds, your lyricism, and these beautiful songs have been inspiring me since the mid-80s. Saw you in Hamburg in the early 90s and was fortunate enough to listen to the soundcheck and interview you. That certainly was a major highlight, too. Oh, and I finally figured out that the kind of 9V battery actually DOES make a tonal difference, esp. in Wah and Fuzz, as you have been saying all along ;) Greetings and much love from Germany.

    @whitecollarguitarhero687 4 роки тому

    I'm not sure what fascinates me the most: how great his bends sound or how he can simply play a note and have it sound marvellous without any bending or vibrato at all. How does one do that?!

    • @thetruthchannel349
      @thetruthchannel349 Рік тому

      Thats a good question. I think its just the person. The fingers themselves are conduits for what is the collective soul and heart in a player. The notes are brought to life by this and nothing but this.

    Eric...that elusive vibrato...Been trying to figure out how you do it for a long time now! I had the video go in 0.25 speed and noticed that your vibrato is quite wide, about 1.25 step. I am not a pro, but I believe your vibrato is so elegant and gives me one more reason to love your beautiful guitar tone. Also, thank you fso much for posting these videos and asking people to donate during those hard times.
