Aye cuh people talk down about Florida but All the different cultures I've been exposed the food the music the ladies it's been a blessing for me ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾
Seeing this really makes me happy. I’m an American born Dominican so I always grew up around bachata and merengue but always gravitated more towards American music. Now that I’m older, I want to get in touch with my roots and maybe play some of these tunes for the family one day.
I recently moved back to the states after living in the DR for 3 years. Miss the whole vibe of the country. I had a son while I was there so I definitely want him to have a strong foundation rooted in both sides. Dominican music like bachata and merengue as well as African American music like delta blues, jazz and rock n roll.its fun diving into Dominican music and history.
This is amazing! More of this please: maybe a video on Cuban guitar styles, and perhaps another on Saharan guitar music. Yasser is incredible, what a fantastic groove and sound!

Gracias a la inmigración dominicana hemos podido tener un contacto mas cercano aqui en Uruguay a la cultura del merengue y la bachata. Esas guitarras son geniales. Gracias Yasser Tejeda por compartir tanta riqueza cultural y enriquecernos a todos.
I had the same type of experience where I wouldn't even think of playing "popular" or roots music from my country until I grew up and started expanding my playing and as well as my ears (something that I think happens to every musician in every country and culture), thats when I felt connected to the music that was playing Yasser, just hearing that playing coming from that strat tone and the combinations of latin (especially afrodominican) and hard modern stuff I just felt enamored, thats when I started going back and now thats one of the genres I play the most and what connects me the most to my roots, Yasser, mis respetos!
Love these styles which are literally foreign to me as a Texas born metal guitar player so having fun learning. Love the DR so it takes me back there when I hear it. Thanks for the video!
Joan Soriano is one of my favorite 2nd wave bachateros- he bridges the gap between the shared heritage of Dominican bachata and bachata hatienne. iASO records is making sure that island artists are paid fairly for their work - and is working to train the next generation of bachata musicians with their Bachata Academy.
so cool. I really believe the future of guitar is embracing the styles that we all love like rock, blues and jazz but looking for these kind of different cultures sounds.
Man,this was great!! I plan to follow up on this player, he's really inspired and inspiring! Yasser, I pray that you have good success with your music and life, I thank you for sharing of your music, culture, and love with us, sincerely, Curtis
Compadre Yasser gracias por compartir, se que también lo haces en tú canal, pero con Reverb va a llegar a muchas más partes. Soy Colombiano y veo que muchos ritmos afro comparten varias similitudes, emigrando también vi la necesidad de tocar y mostrar más mis raises con mis gustos adquiridos. Gracias por tanta inspiración.
Increíble video. Yasser es un guitartista que no sólo rescata las tradiciones, sino que sabe reconciliarlas y hacerlas sonar atemporales. Disfruté de aprender un poco de historia, también!
This is awesome! When I lived in Miami I would hear this style coming out of the local rehearsal rooms. That chorus sound brings me back.
Super cool, R.J.! Yasser had the crew dancing behind the camera the whole time :)
Awesome! Glad you enjoyed it! Blessings!

Shot out to this young brother for acknowledging his African Roots ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾
Blessings!
I feel like the entire world needs more of this kind of music!!!

I hope things have worked out for you. I read your comment and thought I was reading about myself.
So proud of you Yasser you are representing the Dominican people around the world my bro God Bless You.
Thank you so much! Abrazos!

Thank you so much!

Must be cibaeño
Durísimo como siempre, poniendo la bandera en alto! 🇩🇴🤙🏽🔥

What a fantastic interview! Thank you for featuring such a wonderful artist and highlighting the wonderful culture of the Dominican Republic.

Increible talento y en vivo suena igual que en los discos sin fallos. Sacando la guitarra de sus lugares abituales felicidades
I'm half Puerto Rican I play salsa on bass and Thrash Metal on my SG. I might try to play Bachata on my SG even it has high output pickups.
This is great your exposing other styles and techiques from other parts of the world! Inspiring...Thx Reverb!
uno de los mas geniales talentos guitarruses de nuestro pais !!!!
I know this guy! Proud of u homie!

This is way cool, awesome, a mind opener
Amazing! Well presented and beautifull implemented. Thank You!
Que talento te otorgó Dios. Bendiciones paisano.
Would love to see Yasser’s guitar routine with Joe on Reverb 🙏🏻😊
I'm super down to do it! Thanks
Great stuff. Can’t imagine Mark Agnesi engaging with this music on the Gibson channel 😂
Caribbean people should bring Soca, Calypso, Reggae, Bachata, Salsa togeather.
Esto es música, felicidades broth siga asi, keep it Up the good work!
What a great video
This video was awesome!!!!! I loved it! More like this please! 👍👍

Wow 🔥 need to get more into this culture and style myself
This guy's sense of rhythm is so fucking tight.
Thank you Elias! ❤
i think that just convenced me to go back to standard tuning
What kind of amp was used here? And cab?

Love that new Strat! Great playing! Jimi Hendrix has influenced all of us players, apparently. 👍👍
This dude's great!

Inc
so its just chorus magic and sometimes octaves to make it sound more full and delay some times too with jazz type chords interesting
John Mayer heard this and decided to rip SRV blues scales instead.
No mamen
