Love this song, I saw smokey and the bandit in the theatre when I was 15, Your guitar playing is spot on, thanks for posting !!
Sweet an Italian dude playin country guitar in London AWESOME
You are really good and your english is fine
still watching in 2024! great job!
I was a student of Dario’s back in ‘08 and remember the day he went over this lesson very well. What a guy.
thank you for uploading! I am thirteen years old AND A HUGE JERRY REED FAN!!!!!! I'm trying to learn electric guitar... this was the most helpful tutorial I've ever watched! I will continue to use your videos, for sure! Thanks so much!
You're 20 now, hows your career in guitar going???
Funny I learned this and I'm 13, except now they are 21
Killer guitar playing, Jerry Reed may have been one of the best guitar players ever.
Thanks for the brilliant lesson. In my opinion one of the best solos ever and one I have been dying to learn for ages. When it started to come together the grin on my face was like when I first learned guitar.
Thanks man! I just got back from Nashville and trust me there are many incredible players out there... Unluckily the industry has changed so there's no much space for them to show how good they are. Re my origin... I'm Italian but I live in London so my accent is probably messed up!
If I could conquer that song I would play it for the rest of my life , love that picking and you have it done to a T !
23 dislikes . spitefull bastards I think its great
they are everywhere
This song was all part of loving the movie, it's that whole combination of drop-dead gorgeous Trans Am. Thanks for sharing this great song.
I get the feeling this isn't a beginner lesson.
LOLLLLLL......there's another video lesson of same tune uploaded on Y-T and it breaks down the acoustic guitar rhythm and the dual guitar leads. It not only is intricate, tricky, bend-heavy but it was recorded at a break-neck pace or tempo.....No, it isn't for the beginner......sic
@@petewentz3528 its jerry ******* reed, of course it aint simple
@@robertgarrett935 Yes, sir, I'm not disparaging Jerry. The man knew how to play guitar and very, very well at that. Incredible song, and kudos to all the players who can mimic it so effectively. I can't but I certainly would like to be able to.....just fun watching.
Same here, but I'll just enjoy watchin' it.
I agree, if you’re just learning guitar, this is gonna hurt. A lot.
But if you are good with bending, hammer-on pull-offs, and feel confident in your pick, you can learn to play this with slowing it down, practice, and patience. It’s not rocket science, it’s just gym class.
Man, I've played for a living for years, and that lick always gave me trouble. Thanks for clearing up a few spots I was missing!
true musicianship!i am so impressed by this cat.
Lots of miles on that guitar bro! Lots good times!
Excellent instructional video. Good job breaking it down part by part.
Having said that... am I the only one that laughed when he started talking? Flawless country picking followed by a German accent instead of a southern accent. Totally unexpected, cracked me up.
Dario...thank you totally! You know I've been playing guitar for a while and I have never had more fun learning how to play a new style, song, or licks. Great, great job man! Love hearing you play and playing along with your lessons. Thank you again for doing what you do!
Dont wait to get old to play this! It is so stinking hard to remember each section. I finally succeeded. Now lets see how much I remember tomorrow. I am sure I will have to go over it again. Ok it has been a month. Yes at least two hours a day. today it has been 4 hours on just the B and I already did it last night but forgot and had to learn all over again.. Now all I have to do is spend about two-three months more to get it right. Took me a week just to learn your accent. All is Great Thanks!
He sounds like Borat but one of the best video lesson I've seen. I'm now a subscriber . He makes it look so easy. Impressive
Dario, this lesson has been a lesson for me. I thought I knew how to play guitar, wrong.
East Bound and Down has been a real challenge in the style of Jerry Reed. I lived in Nashville for 26 years and have been around Jerry, Chet and his pal Thom Bresh, but never tried to copy. Now I know why. Thanks, your the real deal, you have that magic touch.

Sir, you are a hell of a guitar player
Again, What a fantastic lesson. You have made this song one that with practice. I will and can play. All thanks to you sir. Your teaching is above any I've found on You Tube. Thanks again..
Thanks Mr.Cortese for this lesson, I stuck with it and finally got the solo under my fingers. First one I've learned completely.
I am playing on a strat right now but now I just gotta have a tele! (Strat works fine though) I have been playing guitar for 30+ years and have always loved country music, but have never tried to play it. When I ran across your videos, you made it look so easy that I had to try to play some of it and WOW!!! This type stuff is so fun to play and I realize that I am a better guitar player than I thought!! And getting better from playing this stuff. I have been in a playing rut for years and your videos have taken my playing to a whole new level and in a whole new direction!! I know this sounds like some kind of info-mercial testimonial, but I just had to send you a huge huge thank you!!!
Dude once you get a telecaster you will fall in love haha
@DarioCorteseSongs hey friend I just wanted to write to you and say I LOVE WATCHIN this video I am a country boy I live in USA and I live only 2 hours away from Nashville I go there often and play and sing country music, and I am also one of Jerry Reeds biggest fans out of many, and I love and think it is wonderfull that you are Italian and that you love country music and jerry reed, I just want to say keep it up friend your great, I would love to visit your country I hope I can one day

I appreciate your attention to detail...accuracy is right on. If I met you on the street I would never guess you to be a fan of classic outlaw country music nor would I imagine you can play it perfectly. Keep up the good work and thanks for the videos!
God, I wish I could play this good!! It's so contagious.
Thank you for this lesson! I've wanted to learn this for over 25 years. Finally got it
DarioCorteseSongs.. awesome. So well done and broken down easy. I am a blues and rock player, and trying to learn some of this great country stuff. Your video made it wonderfully easy to learn. I also appreciate your demeanor. You've definitely got a teachers heart on top of excellent licks. God Bless.

I will always thank you for teaching me this song.
And of course for your superb back track of this song at: www.dariocortese.com/lessons/guitarlessons/songs-solos/jerry-reed/east-bound-and-down/
awesome, thanks for link.
very good guitar player and you make it look so easy!
Great video! This shows the basic way to play that solo by playing the melody before the harmony. Thanks for sharing that!
Absolutely fantastic tutorial, easy to understand, well organized and explained, amazing job!
Dario, IMO you fit in to the "Nashville" crowd of guitar greats. Your vids are all excellent . Good works
Thank you Dario, I just started to learn to play guitar in January and this video was a great instruction video for me. I was able to follow you through it without too much trouble and I found this method easier than Tabs. I could just listen to your instruction and follow you along without needing to watch the video much. A great learning tool for me. I chose this song to challenge myself and of course I am a die hard Smokey and the Bandit fan. My seven year old daughter loves the song so I thought I would learn it for her. Thank you very much and I will be looking to learn more from your instruction method in the future.
finally an onloine lesson i can see where teachers fingers are
Simply the best you are.
That's awesome!!! I don't even like country too much but I loooooooove this song, also because I love that movie
quality. a note for note celebration of a great arrangement. once all the way through full speed, then breaking down into manageable chunks each explained then played slow and faster. no begging for subscriptions and when he recommends his website, it's to give you access to a free, accurate and self-produced backing track. There are several other great country solos there as well as info on his favorite gear and lesson books. Thank You.
Gonna get an electric just so I can learn this...so cool! Thanks for posting!
Great playing and instruction. Thanks for taking the time to share with us all. I appreciate the time and effort that goes into this.
great teaching very very easy to follow , I thank you personaly as this is one of my favourite songs to play, Ive never been able to pick it out myself, so thank you
Thanks Dario. Great job on this one. This is the first country song I’ve learned to play so far thanks to you!. I have to say it’s a lot of fun to play and it leaves me smiling. Your a good instructor.and thanks again for your hard work.
that solo brings back so many good memories

Awesome, very fun! It looks hard but how he teaches it makes it so much easier.
thank you jerry ive been looking for some one thats under standable you are a great teacher
This video is AWESOME!!!
Love the way you break it down, and show what you are doing! Finally learned this solo!!!
On this day in 1977 {May 19th} the Universal Pictures movie "Smokey and the Bandit" had its world premier in New York City...
Eight days later on May 27th it opened in theaters across the U.S.A. and Canada...
The song "Easy Bound and Down" by co-star Jerry Reed was featured in the film; it peaked at #2 on Billboard's Hot Country Singles chart and also reached #2 on the Canadian RPM Country Tracks chart...
R.I.P. Mr. Reed {1937 - 2008} and co-star Jackie Gleason {1916 - 1987}...
Took me 5 months of learning to learn this solo. I’ve been watching this for awhile😂
I smiled all through that. very fine picking!
You're very talented thanks for sharing with the public please continue I've learned a lot from you
Dario bless you so much man , I’ve always dreamed of learning this legendary country tune that is dearly and do deep in my heart from one of the greatest films ever , Smokey and the Bandit.
Man I love you
Thank you from Australia 🇦🇺
Giving freely to others is cool! Thank you
Excellent lesson. Well filmed and broken down to facilitate learning. Perfect camera position makes life easy. Grazie Dario, bel lavoro.
Very good and very clear guitar lesson, these easy-to-follow kinds of videos are hard to find. And by the way, the dislikes are the people who are jealous of his good skill, lol.
Good job, thanks for posting this video. It helped
you are a great teacher and an even better guitar player!!!! awesome!!!!
Spot on man. Your video about Jerry's Breakdown was extremely helpful too. Great job

Lovin that! And it's not fingerpicked yaay! Like this guys style aswell quite laid back he's clear concise and easy to follow can't ask for more than that!
If you want to become a masterful guitar player, study Jerry Reed. I learned all my jazz, country, blues, ragtime and rock and roll from Mr. Reed.
Great country lead , one of my favorites
Absolutely brilliant! Jerry would be proud! Do more from Smokey plz!
Just found all of your videos, thanks a bunch. Looks like you have not put up videos for awhile wish you would put up more.

Really good guitar solo lesson. Helped me out a bunch, thank you!
Well ..I've got the A part of the solo down.....I'm very pleased with myself so far ..haveing a lil bit of trouble with the 2nd & 3rd phrase but that's what the rewind button is for ..lol..I like the way you broke it down & really showed & explained everything..I enjoyed it .. thanks
This is excellent. Nice one Dario.
Thanks! Wanted to learn this one a while ago, was too lazy to figure it out myself. You just saved me :) Very accurate and well played!
Damn brother, you nailed it, you rock 👍🏻

Outstanding guitar playing! Thanks for the lesson as I am well on my way to learning this masterpiece. You make it look easy.

That tele neck is worn just how I like. My strat will be like that one day, but I have a rosewood neck so you can't see it.....
Such a great job as always, please keep it up!
Very nice! My uncle Pete Wade is the lead guitarist on the original track = )
great video man, love how you broke it up into small licks.
Great video - so fun to play. Jerry Reed i so underrated
Fantastic!! I sure wish this video was around when I learned this solo. It would've helped a ton! Excellent work...new sub here.
