    I think his lessons are great for people who already KNOW how to play and don't need someone to babysit them with a bunch of stuff about what chord is what or "put your pointy finger here on the 3rd fret" I like these lessons to learn a song so I don't have to spend a long time listening to the recording and figure it out,. most video lessons I can pick up the song just by watching the intro where they play it. I'm no genius, just someone who has played along time and has had to in the past learn songs on the fly on stage by watching the other guitar player, or taking the root notes from the bass player and transposing them into chords.

    I have always played it in standard tuning Now that I have more than two guitars I understand why pro musicians change axes so much, tuning, not just sound. It is has much more tone and feel to it than in std tuning. I wasn't much into changing tunings except for a vocalist until I started watching you. keep it up. We all enjoy. Even have bough a few pedals based on your sound.

  • @jakollee
    @jakollee 7 років тому +1

    Good lesson, in that you tuned all strings down a whole step so you can play in "A," but the last two parts of the intro riff are played on the G and high E strings (just like the first two parts), with hammer-on's on the G string. You can see JF doing this on the 1969 Ed Sullivan show performance.

    • @melodymaker135
      @melodymaker135 5 років тому +1

      jakollee You’re technically correct, but I’ve always played it like Andy for the tiny bit of extra control/vibrato available by using fretted rather than open notes. It is the exact same notes. Keep in mind that Fogerty is a great guitarist with tiny hands who often creates riffs and fingerings to overcome his limitations (as any good player does).

    Would you guys recommend a Fender Super Champ X2 to someone looking to enter the world of Tube Amps? I don't want to blow a lot of cash starting out. I know that the second channel is a modeling channel, and bypasses the preamp 12AX7, but it still runs through the power amp 6V6's. The first channel (clean) is all tube.

    • @Lieutenant_Dude
      @Lieutenant_Dude 10 років тому

      If there's an option to bypass the modeling stuff (I assume that's what the clean channel does) then yeah. I have an Epiphone Valve Junior stock as the five watt head and matching cab. It's small, with just a single volume knob and nothing else, but it handles pedals better than my Marshall. Little low watt tube amps are great.
