One of those rare gem videos that leaves me feeling that I’ve had some real sage knowledge bestowed upon me. Thank you, I will use it wisely.
Thank you so much! Glad it was helpful!
This is an awesome guitar lesson sort of a two sided golden coin, theory is taught and the exercises are demonstrated, such as chord progressions, licks and riffs.
I love it!😊
Thanks! Glad it’s helpful.
Listen to the beginning of Rock and Roll by Led Zeppelin. He uses these exact phrasings! Awesome job mate. Cheers.
Another brilliance lesson - thanks 🙏
Once this ‘clicks’ it’s almost forehead slappingly obvious - but it’s taken me 20
years to figure out 😂🤣
Works brilliantly at blues jams (especially if you’re the 2nd guitarist). Simple yet makes you sound like a pro 👍🏻 sometimes less really is more 😎
Sometimes the guitar seems so complicated and other times so simple! This lesson was an 'ahhhhh!' moment. Really well explained and demonstrated - thank you.
Thanks! Glad it was helpful!
2:21 I use these type of minimal voicings playing in a fully loaded big band, carve out my own frequency space
Like that harmony guitar. I have an 80’s harmony sounds and plays as good if not better than my fender guitars.
Thanks for the great lesson in voice leading. It really helps with improv.
You’re welcome and thank you! Glad it was helpful.
Congrats on a perfect lesson, short and sweet, but insightful and inspirational. Thanks
Thank you!
Best blues lesson I’ve come across. Excellent job with this! I finally get it.
Thank you so much!
Stumbled on to your channel….so glad I did!
Rightio. Can I say, after 27 years on guitar, this video has single handedly connected all the dots for me. I could never understand why, when I picked jazz chords, they never seemed to gel. No longer! I really like adding a raised then a lowered 2nd to the E7 for that juicy tension resolving to the E in the A7. Thanks Jamey, legend.
Glad this video was helpful!

‘Been playing 50+ years “by ear”. Self taught. I learned basic music theory before I even knew what it was. This video does a good job explaining technically what I taught myself.
But at least now I could have a musical conversation with a technical player and not have to go sit in the corner 😊
This lesson opens so many doors to my blues rhythm playing! Thank you Jamey!
Another great lesson
You are the king🙏
Great lesson! This approach not taught enough!
Thanks!
VERY WELL EXPLAINED & DEMONSTRATED. THANK U.
Thanks for watching!
This is EXACTLY what I've been working on! In G but the same core clusters. Thanks so much for the instruction. Can't wait to try these extensions.
A fantastic easy to follow lesson! Thank you Jamey , you are a great teacher and a killer musician too! 😊
Thank you so much!
@@JameyArent Absolutely!
What a great teacher.
Thanks!
Great lesson. I call A13 the robben ford chord!
Definitely!
Wonderful teaching so glad I found this tutorial.
Thank you, glad it was helpful!
This is exactly what I've been looking for. I've been stuck in this area of the strings for a while trying to understand the intervalic relationships in this string set. There's a lot of talk and wasted time in other video's, I appreciate your style. Thank you!
Thank you! Glad it was helpful!
Excellent lesson. Earned a sub. Look forward to digging into your content
Thank you!
Wow!!!....I've been searching this lesson for a long time.....
Thank you! So kind!!!
Hey Jamie! Merry Christmas Mate! You are one of the best instructors I’ve had the pleasure of viewing. Your great basic / advanced skills are perfectly illustrated and represented in such a way that even I can understand. Bravo 👏🏻 mate PeAce ☮️ Dana E💫
Thank you, Dana! Merry Christmas to you too.
@@JameyArent take a couple seconds or so and visit my channel and leave me some feedback/pointers on the things an old guitar slinger’s could do to improve his skills. I’m an improvisational musician and all my tracks are single pass with NO editing. Sometimes it’s pretty good I’ve been told and then it’s just fun lol. Thanks mate! Happy New Year 2024!!! Peace ✌🏻☮️🙏🏻😁🤙🏻🍻cheers🍻

nice tip
A great lesson on a too often neglected subject - voice leading.
What are the chord progressions in Robin Trower's song Caledonia ?
The Grateful Dead explored this in their version of Dancin’ in the Streets in the 1970s. Some crazy stuff comes out of there.
Fantastic lesson, Jamey! BTW… I love your axe! Honestly, how do you like it?
Thanks! It’s great…a total vibe machine!
Such an eye opening lesson for a beginner like me. Thanks!
Hey when you pull the knob in middle position does it kill the volume like it does on my harmony comet?
No, it gives a quacking out of phase sound that’s great for blues. That’s what should happen. If yours cuts the volume completely you should get it looked at.
... 👍 !!
Great video, but I'm curious, why no sign of 11th's?
You could totally throw in 11s too! I probably left them out of this video because they are less commonly heard in blues compared to the 9th and 13th due to their proximity to the major 3rd.
tryton?
Huh?
Danny Gatton showed me this trick in his DVD.....your late
I am a huge Danny Gatton fan!
First of all it's you're, NOT "your"... You are the one who is late. I have that Danny Gatton video on V.H.S.... Danny Gatton may have been a great guitarist, but his lesson was not as easy to follow like this lesson was for some less experienced guitarist. Which I am not. Your comment was not needed!
Bla, bla, bla...
So much talking- for what?
Explaining the blues? Wow.
