    Learn how to play You Got Me Floatin', as performed by The Jimi Hendrix Experience released in late 1967. This is my favorite Jimi album, the sound engineering is so good, he is in his prime, and there is so much great material there.
    The lesson covers Jimi's rhythm guitar that drives most of the song, also the unique 8 string bass that Jimi plays on the record, and I'll show you how you can achieve those backwards solo pieces by using the Boss DD8 Digital Delay in "reverse" mode. Get one here imp.i114863.net/rnKrAv

    I saw a short clip about how you explained the things needed to be done to make a Hendrix strat. I laughed out loud as I encountered ALL of these things when I got a LH Mexi Strat in 1999. I flipped everything, changed the pickups, changed the strap button. New Years Eve 2000. We are gigging at a fairly big club. The lights are off, we hit it BOOM everything lights up! My other guitar player comes over and yells in my ear, "your in the wrong key!" I have played since I was 6 and at that time I was 30. I never realized how much I actually use the side markers!! I was playing sharp! Also, dont try playing above the 19th fret or so! very hard to access. I drilled little holes in the side and filled them with white out. Problem solved. Love your tutorials by the way

      Haha great story. Question, why did you change the pickups? Just better pickups or were you flipping them around ?

    • @brianseneca3546
      @brianseneca3546 Місяць тому

      @@12footchain better pickups. I worked at a mom and pop generational music store. At the time Mexican Fenders had ceramic pickups and they very shrill. At my discount I bought custom shop singles for the bridge and middle and a Duncan little 59 in the bridge. I know thats kind of sacrilege for Strat guys, but its a stage guitar and I wanted it to be more versatile to play more than a song or two in a row. At the end of the day I had my tech wind the tone open and take out all but one volume know because it dug into my arm when I was playing. Also, I was always turning the knobs the wrong way on the fly. Still looks fantastic though

    Very good intro jam, should have gone on for longer. The thing about Hendrix is that you had to be there, at that time there was nothing else like that on the radio. Particularly Axis was not reviewed well because it was misunderstood. Not the commercial success but everybody learned from him and then started embelishing his style, with bends (bendrix) tapping and more overdriven. Yah right that boss pedal sounds fun.

    • @Jonesy1978
      @Jonesy1978 Місяць тому

      It's pretty obvious that it's in A as the main riff is taken right from the A minor pentatonic scale, and every chord has the open A string ringing throughout

  • @jonathanroselaw

    To me Hendrix is an overrated guitar player. Playing is pedestrian and sloppy. Sloppy is fine and I get it but not much there. Maybe more of a sign of the times with him but I don’t see the wow in his playing.

    • @lamper2
      @lamper2 Місяць тому +1

      I agree, if by "sloppy" you mean soulfull and great.

    • @thedashgreen65000
      @thedashgreen65000 Місяць тому +3

      Technique is irrelevant to how good a guitar player one is. I’d much rather listen to someone creative and “sloppy” than someone with precise technique.

      I think tbis guy is genX and considers DREAM THEATER a cool band. Oh sure a technical group of .musicians that went to GIT or whatever. HENDXRIX ushered in the AQUARIAN AGE of guitar playing and his acid blues rock was unique full of different influences. Not to mention his unworldly creativity and lyrics. Nobody so far holds a candle to that . Now go back to your so called technical nerds and leave the building.
