If you know your pentatonics and the common barre chords you can literally play all over the fretboard in a Hendrix style with just this one lesson. Amazing work and exactly what I needed in my playing! Thank you
Magical
Thank you for saying "play in a Hendrix style" rather than "play just like Hendrix".
to get to that point tho takes a lot of patient and skill. need to know the scales, chords rhythm and heart ache lol
This lesson feels like it's in the realm of when a magician shows how they've done their tricks. Thanks so much for breaking the magician's code for us! Definitely putting this lesson in my "Must Have Guitar Tutorials".
Thanks so much Jeff! Glad you like the vids! Glad to hear they are working for you.
Dude you ain't jokin! Played all my life, even a few Hendrix songs. I'm 8 mins into the video and I need to stop and practice these totally new to me things!😃
@@sau1itud366 So true. It’s amazing and great analogy.
Definitely hands down.
Long time comin
Adding double stops between full chords to make rhythm playing more melodic/to add more movement/complexity is the best thing I've ever come across to make rhythm playing more interesting. I played guitar for 20 years before learning about this - wish I came across the concept sooner...total game changer. Great lesson too as always! :)
Thanks for checking it out Nathan!
Without a doubt the best Hendrix embellishment lesson on UA-cam right now. Beautifully taught. Thx Pap.
Wow thanks!!
Yes... Thanks Papa
I agree 100%.
Totes!
Yeah the best Hendrix lesson. It covers everything from regularly used licks, major chord embellishment, minor chord embellishments and how it all relates to the cages system. Nice. Why didn't Papa put this out sooner?
I love this lesson. Going through it a number of times. The various pentatonic scales being attached to certain kinds of chords is so helpful!
Glad you like the concept! Thanks for tuning in!
I just made a video teaching what you teach but just as it pertains to soloing. Thanks for the idea!
Brett Papa Another level is applying those pentatonic scale positions to the appropriate modes!
Been trying to figure out how to do this since I started playing 5 years ago!! I feel like I just discovered the holy grail
YES! Great news! Thanks for watching!
You made a video like this YEARS ago and it changed everything about my playing. It helped me understand scale shapes, chord tones, triads, progressions, etc. This video, on the same subject, is even better!!!! You are THE BEST Hendrix guitar teacher on UA-cam, hands down.
Awesome to hear man! Thanks so much for checking it out and the kind words!
Go and check out Dave Simpsons channel for a little extra tips. Really good job Brett Papa!
Omg .. just omg.. my cousin grew up listening to me play guitar and was influenced to start playing and I started playing in 94', hes also 10yrs younger than me but actually knows more than I do about theory. I love that he knows more and he pushes me to be better. For years he's been telling me to learn how to play through chord changes but I didn't know where to start because everyone else who explained it made it sound complicated. I taught myself how to play blues starting back in 98' and I knew all the pentatonic shapes and the double stop tricks but I didn't know how to connect them in the way you just showed in this video. This is personally one of the biggest lessons of my musical life so thank you for this.
Awesome to here man! Glad it helped! Have a good one the fun has just begun!!
Would you be able to show how to incorporate this kind of stuff into R&B/Jazzy type chords? I love that kinda stuff to and I'd like to be able to mix them with the bluesy things I play too. Watch my videos!! You'll see me playing them and know what I mean.
I’ve been on a Hendrix grind for a few months and have watched dozens of videos. I must say this is the most informative video I have seen in regards to his playing style. Being able to simplify major and minor chords and the pentatonic shapes underneath them has completely changed my view on the fretboard. Just need to memorize a few notes and the rest falls into place. I can’t thank you enough you’ve earned yourself a subscriber. Love the strat but love the tone even more.
Awesome to hear Alex! Thanks for the sub!
@@BrettPapa Of course! Do you recommend any other Hendrix based videos to expand these ideas upon?
Man your tone here in the intro was great, some of the best Strat tones heard man.
Wow thanks! Glad you liked it!
How you get that tone
@@donefinished probably either a transparent overdrive or a fuzz on low gain
@@gunkanjima3408 is that those extra little boxes you can attach ? Sorry I don’t know the proper terms haha
Wow…..Incredible. Been playing for 50 years and learned more about playing Hendrix in a half hour than any other resource I’ve ever used. Thank you… You’re an incredible player and teacher. 👍👍👍
Thats awesome man! Glad to hear it! Thanks for watching!
Same
There are several lessons on major pentatonic rhythm/lead, and this is by far the best one.
Wow thanks!
It’s actually crazy how much info there is is in this video - but easy to understand. I know that for the next months I’ll literally implement this video in all its value all over the fretboard
Thanks for checking it out! I also have a massive course on how to play like Hendrix on my website if you want the massive deep dive!
Man, you're getting better and better...in playing and teaching
Haha, thanks! Glad ya think so!
I agree with this.
Me too. I’ve enjoyed your lessons for years, since the days with Marty. I have to say your last few lessons have been outstanding, I’m not sure what it is but you are killing it lately.
Agreed!
Brett you’ve BLOWN my mind with unlocking the Hendrix chords connecting one to the next up the neck. INCREDIBLE video. I’m not trying to learn note for note but rather the concepts and the how they connect. THANK YOU so much for sharing!
You are welcome! So glad to hear you liked it!
This is the most fun I've had playing guitar in a long time. way to go Brett
Awesome Thom! Glad you liked it!
The best double stop lesson on UA-cam, and I've watched them all. Most teach music theory, but never dig into the whole point of the lesson, Double-stops! Well done.
Wow thanks!
Ive seen a lot of these Hendrix style lessons, and this by far is the best one! It definitely provides a deeper level of insight, and it is explained so clearly, methodically, and meticulously. Amazingly done, sir!
Thanks! Glad you liked it! Thanks for checking it out!
I first came across Papa Stache years ago searching how to do that rolling rythymn frusciante does.
I can't believe his teaching has gotten even better since then.
This video is definitely one of those times where he's managed to distill what he's being saying for years into a flawless tutorial.
Most comments on the video are talking about it being a eureka! moment and they're not wrong.
Thanks Papa, you rock!
Awesome man! Glad it helped you out!
I'm in México and it's one of the best video lesson I saw on my entire life, perfect explained an easy to understand to me that I'm a medium level guitarrist this gonna help me to increase too much my level. Thanks so much!!!😀👍🎸
Awesome! Glad it helped you out!
One year looking parts of this fabelous tutorial. Still learnig guitar riff and solo earing melodies, beautiful melodies. Thanks againt Brett Papa
That's awesome! Thanks for watching!
Much love from Denver, don't ever stop!!!
Thanks! I don't plan on it!
Thank you so much. You are a great teacher. It took me two days to fully work through the whole video and I soaked everything in.
I already know the pentatonics and recently learned the triads and the caged system and connecting everything together was just mind blowing.
That’s awesome! Glad it helped!
My man, I have watched lessons from pretty much everyone and this is one of the absolute best lessons on UA-cam. You put out a real gem with this one, Brett.
Wow man thanks! Glad the video helped you out!
@@BrettPapa No problem Brett, and I want to be specific so you know just how serious I am: I'm a metal player who has played pentatonics/natural minor without any real theory for years. The way you related the sounds and chords to the pentatonic scale positions combined what I'm learning about chords(triads theory etc) with what I already knew about pentatonics in a way that was just perfect. I already had the finger dexterity but now I'm associating all of these phrases with their chordal function and emotional effect with pentatonics bridging it all. Well done. I honestly didn't even realize I knew pentatonics that well all over the fretboard.
Thank you Brett!I think this is the third Hendrix style video you have done.They have demystified some of Jimi's playing and made my guitar playing more fun.Stay well.God bless
Awesome man! Glad you liked them! I have a whole course coming out on it soon!
Brett I love your playing man.Your episode with Tim Pierce many years ago now changed my life man. No joke I have completely devoted my life to guitar and haven't looked back.Thanks.
Oh man thats awesome to hear! Thanks so much for checking us out and the kind words!
One of the best guitar tutorial I’ve seen…Thanks!
Awesome to hear! Glad you liked it!
So grateful for your lessons, you have opened that magical door for me!! Thank you Papa!!! I’m still working on the thumb thing.
Awesome to hear! Thanks so much for checking them out!
Brett I love your teaching style. You break it down nice and simply. I’m a full time pro and I’m still learning stuff from you as I start playing electric after a decade. Awesome stuff man. 😊👍
Wow man that is great to hear! Thanks for checking out the vids!
Brett Been playing bits and pieces of Little Wing for years. You really bring in all out. And tying it all together. I know the thumb is imperative to get that sound. But damn even using the side, angled its fricken tough. Thanks for sharing just what I needed. Cheers
Thanks! Yeah it takes some wrangling but you will get it if you work at it!
This is my favorite lesson of yours. And I must have seen like 20-25 of them. Just really shows you come concepts that you can add to your playing that will make you sound much better. Thanks.
Awesome! Thanks for checking out all the vids!
Dude... been watching you for years. Let there be no doubt, this effort is your finest by a long shot. Back to the woodshed I go. Thank you for cracking the code.
Haha thanks!
finally since a decades of research about hendrix style this is the best video I've finally found very detailed how to use licks and scales over chords very nice thanks a lot sir brett papa for these amazing tutorial
Wow thanks Arwin! Glad you liked it!
I owe you a MAJOR thanks and it has nothing to do with the Hendrix lesson in itself. Your pentatonic positions freaked me out for a second. So I paused your vid and Googled "MAJOR" pentatonic positions. At first I thought I was going to have to learn all new pentatonics. Well, I already knew them and I knew them very well actually. What I never did was shift the whole bunch. See I learned the positions minor over MAJOR chords. That's what I knew and that's what I played. I've been stuck in minor my whole life trying to be melodic LOLOL
So when you played the pentatonic with the MAJOR chord. I thought WOW that sounds sweeter to my ears. I had to dig deeper !
Come to find out. I didn't have to go that deep.
I'm just Dumb !
Thank You !
Lol! Now you know so you can't be dumb anymore! I didn't know for about 20 years either!
Thank You Brett, ... VERY Nice, glad to see you still Rockin'
Sure thing! Thanks for tuning in!
Ok so this is one of those defining playing moment lessons. Fantastic. Brett can't thank you enough!
Awesome! You are welcome!
Brett Papa Just got my lifetime membership. So far it’s fantastic. Old dogs learning new tricks😎
I've gone through this video three times now and have made notes with diagrams. So many light bulb moments and I can now see the shapes better on the fret board. So awesome!
Awesome! Glad to hear it helped ya out!
Awesome, one of the best videos explaining playing over changes. Can’t wait for the Hendrix course!
Thanks so much! Just added a couple of more Hendrix videos to the course last week! Tons more coming soon!
Great lesson. I knew a lot of it but really opened up something when you tied those pentatonic positions to the cords. Thanks!
Awesome! Glad you liked it!
BEST Jimi, no Double Stops lesson yet! THANK YOU!!! THANKS!!!
You are welcome!
Have to say this is an outstanding lesson, theory and technique combined and articulated in a simple to understand way. Thanks Brett 👍
Thanks Andy Glad you liked it!
If not, then I gotta contribute to you one way or another. Cuz you laid it all out here. Crazy generous. You gave away the store here. All you other dudes who are glomming onto this stuff for free; contribute. This guy is giving it out for free. But, he has rent to pay, and mouths to feed. Please, reward him for his generosity. Thank you Brett
Thank ya sir! The courses are like 10 hour deep dives with jam tracks, tabs, etc.
Makes it look so easy. The tone of that strat is amazing.
Thanks Brad. I've practiced this a ton. You can do it too! You got this!
The fact that you have still replied to most comments tells me you are probably gonna read this and I dont really comment. As a new player this is so fucking amazing and inspiring, thanks for showing so much love to this and everyone that stumbles on your videos. Gem of a channel man! Thank you!
Wow thanks! Glad you liked it! More on the way!
Man I have bought a couple lessons from other UA-cam dudes on this style and while those are excellent, this is even better. Concise but explained with just the right thoroughness, and covers the two most common shapes which keeps it gloriously simple. GREAT lesson! Oh and then at 29:20 it’s like...wait, now talk about that faster stuff some more! Ok, Brett. I’m clicking the darn link!
Yes! Thanks for checking it out!
@@BrettPapa I didn’t just check it out, I signed up! 🙂👍
by far the best lesson on the subject in YT realm. thanks a lot.
Wow thanks!
I’ve never heard the correlation between chord shapes and pentatonic boxes before. When the triad was thrown in I had to rethink how big the fretboard is. Thanks for condescending it for me . Great lesson
Sure thing! Thanks for watching!
Hey man, I just wanted to thank U 4 the tip about using the SIDE of the thumb instead of trying to flatten it... THAT, by itself, was the breakthrough in my understanding of how to correctly and comfortably fret these chords the right way🤘 thanx 4 that gem
You are welcome Kay! Glad I could help!
Well damn my understanding of how to use pentatonics in a musical way has now just opened up! Thanks so much Brett
!
That's awesome! Glad it helped!
You are awsome my brother from Warren 😎
Thank ya!
What a great lesson. Thank you for sharing and for being a great teacher.
Thanks for checking it out! Glad you liked it!
Incredible lesson...as others have mentioned, it requires some fundamentals. IMO, recommend if you don't know them already, go learn CAGED pentatonic positions until you are comfortable, and then come back to this lesson. With those two things and some practice you could immediately jump to sounding very good. I've done a bunch of other lessons/courses across multiple pay sites, and I've enjoyed them all, but I don't think anything has been as big of a direct line path to a totally attainable style of play that sounds awesome. Brett definitely gives you the exact right few elements from an endless sea of potential options.
Thank ya! Glad you like the lessons!
That's a whole freeking pot of gold right there in that lesson, a big salute to you Sir Brett.
Lol! Thanks! Glad you like it!
Thanks bring more of this lessons...
Sure thing
Good afternoon from NY! Thanks to you (back in the Papastache days) i learned how to play like Jimi and this vid today was a great refresher. Thanks for all you do my man! :-)
Howdy neighbor from white plains n y !
@@unclesalty7778 Hey Uncle Salty!
Awesome! Thanks for hangin' around all these years!
Brett, LOVE these lessons. When jamming I used to just find the key and meander through the pentatonic. Now I listen to the chords and try these techniques to get a more melodic, measured solo. It’s been a real epiphany!!! Thanks from the UK!!!!
Awesome!! Glad its helping you to become more melodic! Thanks for watching!!
Brett Papa thanks pal!!!!
While all the focus is on the fretting hand, you gotta love the percussive rakes, palm muting and ghost notes you're playing with your right hand. Very nicely done!
Thank ya! Yeah the right hand has so many cool options too!
BEST TEACHER ON THE PLANET!
You are to kind!!
Awesome Hendrix lesson. Didnt want it end.
Haha thanks! Got a whole course coming out soon! Thanks for watching!
The best double stop lesson I've seen. Thank you.
amazing! I love how you break down all the Hendrixisms! Thanks for this. I'll have to check out the course later😎
Thanks for watching!
Man, lots to unpack here but I love it. Got tired of just power chords and minor pentatonic after years of pkaying and this stuff here is just magic. Thanks a bunch man!
You are welcome! Thanks for watching!
Love that lick you play. at 12:04--will keep at it !
Thanks! It's all yours haha!
I’m just going to say thank you.
Thank you.
You are welcome!
Even though i already knew how to play like this video is top notch for real and watched the whole thing. Crystal clear teaching!
Thanks Cesar! Glad you liked it!
That was really awesome!! I followed the
whole tape, yeah, playing note for note is fine, but I rather know how to play like that, I don’t wanna get stuck in a rut, and then furnish it, and become dull and non-creative. Thank you very much will see you again. Thank you.
Sure thing!
This is absolutely awesome. Thank you so much.Sooo thankful for your time and help in creating these videos!!Brett we love you.Merci pour la belle leçon .Long live Jimmi
You are welcome! So nice to see you!
Wow Brett, what a lesson!
The simplicity and objectivity that you have is mind changing , and that's exactly what you did it.
You changed and opened my mind !
Thank you again.
Awesome! So glad it helped you out!
Great lesson. I have worked on it for a week and have made real progress. Thanks a lot!
That’s great!
there are very few things that came out of 2020 because of covid but this lesson made 2020 all worth it!! DAMN!! it's good.
Haha thanks Joe!
I’ve struggled with the thumb thing for years but I’ve been forced into it lately because of wrist pain when playing a ‘traditional’ barre chord. Your tips here have really helped👍. When you get into it (if you can) the thumb over the top approach is so much more comfortable. Thanks Brett!
Sure thing! Thanks for watching!
You are sooooo good at this!
Lol! Thanks man!
I subscribed because of this lesson. Immediately applicable. You broke Jimi's style down in a way that this simpleton could easily understand lol Thanks!
That is awesome! Thanks for the sub!
Excellent instruction and putting into practical context. Learning so much from you! Thank you!!
Awesome to hear man! Thanks for tuning in!
You have Jimi's rhythm playing down. You play beautifully. Thank you for sharing Brett
Thanks! Thanks for watching!
So much here!! Thanks I will using this as a touchstone for some time!
Sure thing!
I’ve realized rather than memorizing all the pentatonic positions alone I can visualize them by mentally attaching them to chord shapes. It’s funny because I’ve found learning about Hendrix playing style has taught me more about guitar than anything else.
Agreed 100%
I think the mistake most people make including myself is your always told minor sounds good over major. So you look at it from the wrong lens. Stuff like this is why UA-cam’s the best app period
Glad you liked it Kevin!
Literally everything you played in this video was awesome! Great lesson!
Haha, thanks! Thanks for tuning in!
Amazing teaching of something so many admire. Really appreciated!
Glad you liked it Joe! Thanks for tuning in!
@@BrettPapa Truly, yes, and thanks for doing these. I know you mentioned a course and I'm a bit scattered now but I'm interested - I'm just learning bits and pieces now and these rhythm lessons are other worldly. And you have the great casual approach. Really helpful.
One of the best articulated lesson on Hendrix style. Thanks a lot!
Thanks Andre!
Excellent from beginning to end Brett. One of your very best, from a guy who's been putting lots of good things out there for a long time. Many, many thanks.
Thanks man! Glad you liked it!
Papa's your a veterano on that guitar been getting a lot of inspiration from you and your playing your just a loco ..Roland J Gutierrez from Magdalena New Mexico USA
Haha awesome man! Thanks for checking out the vids!
I think Jimi's and Eddie's rhythm playing were without par. Thank you so much for demystifying Jimi's use of double stops in an easy way to understand.
Sure thing! And yes they are two of the best rhythm guys ever!
So u can use for example 1 position pentatonic in different places while playing in e just because u play Em shaped cord?
Very comprehensive lesson. You really are a very good teacher. Very detailed stuff. I remember watching a lesson on playing over the changes where you break down some licks and all, that was pretty detailed and nice as well.
Thanks! Glad you like the lessons! Thanks for checking them out!
Incredible breakdown of Hendrix's style !
Great lesson. Insight into how Hendrix saw music through the fretboard instead of written music. Coming from a more classical background, I learned a lot
That's awesome! Thanks for watching!
Thanks for listing the gear! I think there's a real shortage of videos about guitar tone and effects and applying different pedals and dynamics to playing live. Just throwing it out there 🤩🙏
Sure thing! More coming soon!
@@BrettPapa got the Hendrix course just great! Something shifted today learnt pentatonic scales years back but never applied them properly moved on quick to major/minor/modes...loads of gaps. Lovin' the positive vibes this will be the first course I ever finish! 🤘🤩
Phenomenal tone
Thanks!
Brett, thanks a million from Barcelona for sharing this...
Sure thing! Thanks for watching!
Perfect tone and playing!
Game changed.. mind opened.. leveled-up: ✅. Thanks so much 🙏
Awesome to hear Adam! Thanks for watching!
beautiful playing
Thanks!
@@BrettPapa 53 yo just started playing again after 30 years. Feels like an eternity before I can play like that if ever
Everything about this lesson made perfect sense. Thanks for this!
Awesome to hear Tim!
Hi Brett
Just the lesson I needed. Always wanted to learn how to play and use double stops. However, could never find a lesson that explained it so well. Learning where the double stops come from and relating them to the pentatonic scales gives me a chance of actually learning and using these ideas to move forward in my playing. Thank you for creating such a great lesson. 👍
Sure thing Ken! Got a huge Hendrix course coming soon for a real deep dive! Stay tuned. Thanks for watching!
🎸☀️ lightbulb 💡 moment!! 🙏🙏🙏
Awesome to hear Roger! Glad you liked it!
Brett this is such a great lesson - maybe the best half hour anyone could spend on this subject. Actually I've been studying it off and on for a little while now as there's such a lot within to take on board. Still plenty of detail I need to get right and better at - it will take a few more weeks but it will be so worth it. You've definitely got the vibe my good man!
Thanks so much Andy! Glad you like the vids!
That strat is a beast!
I love that thing!
Mr. Papa's con guitada sould I go for the new starts from fender vintage series and thank for giving us understanding on how to play this Hendrix style guitar..
Sure thing!
