I am a simple man. I see John Butler I upvote.
15 years to finish a song now that's legendary ❤
The best musicians are the most modest ones imo. John is an enlightened treasure. Thanks for posting!!
I agree! Thank you Luke!
John Mayer would like to have a word with you
That riff is amazing, so tasteful! I can’t believe I didn’t know this guy up until few days ago, talented musician!!

What a legend!! Musical theory out the window "I just work in patterns that I see" class!!
Gifted Man indeed! You light up this world John Butler! :) Thank you :)
I agree, thank you John 👍🏻
Also the tuning for OCEAN, but that's got the capo on fret 4.
Since first picking up a guitar and having a go at that song, this has been my favorite tuning by far.
Thanks for sharing this, I've got a new song to work on now!
I love this open mentality about open chords thanks for sharing this
Really kool . Thx for the open C lesson man
I’m by no means comparable to John but I feel like we have a similar thought process, I don’t know shit when it comes to music theory I play what I feel and “what sounds good” to me and I guess I hinder myself and make learning slower but it gives me a good boost of confidence knowing John Buttler has some what a similar way of thinking 😅 when he said “I find and play patterns” I related a lot
I assume that john when learning the guitar, would have learnt the basic chords on standard tuning long before he found his own patterns on that wacky tuning
Jason Stuart I remember seeing him say somewhere that he started out playing grungy rock type stuff in standard tuning, then he inherited his grandpas dobro and couldn’t work out how to play it, then he stumbled upon open tunings and it opened up a whole new world.
Well there is something magical about not knowing the theory, and just feeling whats right, over time you do develop your own thought process on what scales and so on. I started on DADGAD from day one and this for me was interesting and fun from day one. Now I play Open G Open C and lately I have been playing standard which I actually enjoying a lot. The cool thing about this process is that the tendency to learn other songs and just keep jamming on nice tunes that come out these tunings.
J.B, what a Western Aussie, Legend.
From Rock amongst Bees.
Much love!
I understand you so much more than most musicians. I'm the same way, the patterns and what frets I should hit and when not to hit them. Like, I understand why I'm not hitting them but then other people go far into detail and I'm just like "Woah buddy, I'm here for a good time not a long time." Because I personally don't need music theory to understand what I'm doing. I believe music theory is for people who need a lot of reminders for everything. Idk about you, but I read a tab and play a song twice and come back the next day and I have over half of it memorized already. I want to get a 12 string because they sound so sweet, but I'm not really sure where to start learning. Then again.. The thing about music is you don't always have to learn, sometimes you just let loose and let your heart play the strings 😁
Theory is pretty cool imo, but not everybody has to like it. There have been plenty of people who didn’t know any theory and composed/wrote beautiful songs by feeling everything out. That being said, music theory isn’t just reminders. It’s a deeper way of understanding music. Once you know theory, you don’t have to look at the tab, you can recognize progressions and scales and modes and see what options you have and how far they can be stretched. It’s weird. The more rules you know, the more free your music becomes.
This song is amazing
Hey man, it would be so cool to play with you - I think woodwind flutes will sound great with your folky open guitar tunes!
Wonderful Musician !
That's right!
He never ages!!! Howwwww
He's knows more theory than he thinks, Just has difficulty explaining it with words. I don't think he needs to study theory to understand what he is doing, he needs to understand the vocabulary around theory. Just speculating, but there is more knowledge about theory in that mans head than he will give himself credit for.
Awesome
Thank you!
Supurb thanks for sharing!! ✌🏻❤
You're welcome Mike! Thanks
lol, it's funny how he has trouble putting into words what his body does automatically. 'I kinda do this thing with my hands, not sure what thats called.'
Does he wear a fake nail on his right thumb? I’ve been shearing mine off fingerpicking and am thinking of trying just one on that thumb
Yes, John has stuck fake nails on four of his fingers.
Hello John can you please tell me the tuning you use on your song [Young and Wild].
The part @ 3:25 where he talks about his picking hand.
What would you actually call that?
Noticed its a staple in a lot of John's songs and want to get proficient at it
Might that be a "double-stop"? A two-note "chord" that's abbreviated/selected from a larger chord, like what Jimi does? My best guess..
Man this guy looks a lot
like John butler
how about that
3:23 John does that in so many songs. I've wondered what that's called too
It's called a Hammer On. 😉
@@guitarpro But it's not a hammer on. you're talking about what he's doing with his left hand. I'm talking about the combination of the first and second notes and how quick they're played with his right hand. It's the quick little finger flip thing he does that plays two notes rapidly, the first note being a 1/32 note or something quick like that. Usually written in tab with a small number right next to a big normal sized number indicating the small number is played very quickly. He does this in many songs, and many require a very quick pluck of two strings rather than being succeeded by a hammer on, therefore, I've always wondered what the technical term of that move is.
@@LoungeFly02 I see what you mean yes, it's called a "grace note" then.
He says he's hitting two notes, I would call that pinching if I was to describe it to someone. Happens a lot with Travis picking for example.
@Matthew Hardeman this is the best description, the first note the hammer on and the accompanying note on the other string.
Please make a reaction video Alip Ba Ta, he is Indonesian finger style guitarist
How do explain genius?
Indeed you can't. 😉
Actually he is bad teacher but a great musician
So whats this song acutally called?
"Just Call" 😉
This guy solved the matrix.
Do not try to play the guitar. That's impossible. Instead, only try to realize the truth.
What truth?
That you are not John Butler.
Do you have wade in the water tabs?
