This is possibly the most densely useful guitar lesson video I’ve ever seen. I can see myself rewatching this a hell of a lot as my fretboard knowledge improves over time. Thank you 🙏
Great lesson! explains so much in a very clear way. I don't like the chord diagrams in reverse though. You look at it and think 4-4-6-4 instead of 10-8-10-10 (8:25). I get it is to match your fretboard visually but then it doesnt match the students fretboard. The point of the chord diagram is to not have to work out where you are placing your fingers but then you still have to do that with these reversed diagrams.
Wow just wow. I originally was a blue based player but have strayed to far into metal and forgot so much , so was researching blues/tasty chords and found your vid!! This is so good , thanks for making this vid it's an absolute goldmine of info and very inspirational !!!
1 00:26 C9 2 00:29 F9 3 4:17 Sliding 2 notes of C7 1/2 step down gives shell voicing or F7 (IV) 4 6:35 C9 (again) Notes to self; 1 ring finger points to root, mid fing on 9th at 7th frt. 2 Ring fing is on root, little fing holds down 3 strings. 3 and can add root to C7 if needed.
I don't believe I've ever seen a more efficient and informative lesson. In the 60s and 70s we just kept picking up the needle and putting it back until we mostly got it. LOL This is a hell of a lot easier on folks today. Friggin awesome lesson.
This is cool. Thank you. It also showed me why my ears don’t like jazz. It’s the rootless chords. They make my mind reach for the grounded feeling and just distracts me.
That's what I'm talking about! I don't wanna know how to play a song, I wanna know how to build the chords and make my own thing! Thanks for the tutorial, it's been a long time I don't improve that much but you're really helping me!
Okey ! this one was really really great ! I would love to see more of this, even just you playing the tabs ;D!! thank u for the vid. What i love the most are stuff like those added chords like the Gm9 , not jazz'ed up stuff, just "normal" stuff used really great. Amazing example here !!
Incredibly important lesson for tasty blues colours in my opinion. I am trying to get the right chords to play « It’s my own fault » by Johnny Winter since a while and it is obvious that some of these chords are similar to the Rick Derringer’s part. Would love to see that song analysed by you as an application of this tutorial.
It's very interesting. I finally found familiarity with the fretboard and can naturally do the blue's shuffle as of yesterday. I know I'll learn this but my brain is utterly hurting today. I have headaches and a limited time to play because I'll make my pains worse but I get what you're showing and I'll still yet need help to actually slow down enough of my mind to do it. Thanks for teaching. I like it a bit slower but the concepts are great and if followed it can be amazing.
Thanks Jules, a very well put together and useful lesson, Icing on the cake would have to included the chord diagram and chord tone list on the tab sheet, would have saved me having to draw them on! 😁Robert
Nice video! Good intro to expanding the same stale old blues repertoire! I would've like to have seen more theory about how we can get different chords for each part of the blues, as pertaining to diatonic harmonization (which I assume is what's informing the chord selection here) but otherwise this is a valuable resource nonetheless! One other nitpick: why are you using a different order of strings in the chord diagram (high E on the bottom) to the tablature diagram (high E on the top) the inconsistency had me very confused so I wound up clicking back to the tablature diagrams. Judging by the replay heatmap that's what everyone else is doing also. Might be worth sticking to one standard diagram format in future?
Great lesson, Jules. Looking at that rootless C9, it's the same shape and position on the fretboard as an E minor seven, flat five. Is there a simple reason in music theory why this is? I did try googling but came up with nothing. Cheers
I've been playing for a good while. but trying something different like this and is pretty difficult to play clean as this. You make this look so effortless, ...this was very tasty and indeed a very good harmony lesson. can you tell me what is your favorite neck specs?! cheers, you're a great player
Haha, it may look effortless on camera, but I find it hard to get stuff like this at a level where I'm happy to publish it and there's always one or two bits not as clean as I'd like. In terms of necks I'm happy with the middle ground of a modern Fender. I sometimes find yamaha/ibanez type guitars too thin and too flat.
Great lesson, I think its important to know that you don't need to use all of the chord movements and examples in this lesson all of the time or fall into that trap! It's absolutely fine for example to not do a 2 5 1 movement go right to a 4 chord from the 1 or to just use a dominant 1 chord before going to the 4 with no flat 13 chord leading up to it. In fact sometimes having too much going on at once can be a negative more than a positive especially if you are playing with other instruments or you have a more complex riff or bassline going on then adding in complex and intricate chords can make it sounds awkward and out of place, thats something important to keep in mind! :3.

I love that style I can't wait to go learn those licks, this is next level for my ability and great tone the strat
My thoughts exactly! DENSE! It's a whole course. So succinct and clear.
Astonishingly Beautiful and Intricate! With your flair, you make it seemingly easy, yet so high brow! Brilliant!!!
Thanks, it's about time I got a bit more jazzy with my chord choices.
Dude, you have the gift! You can play beautifully and break it down to make it so easy to comprehend!!! You are the “Guitar Guru!” 😄✌🏻
Great lesson! explains so much in a very clear way.
I don't like the chord diagrams in reverse though.

Jules is my new main man when it comes to blues.
Love this stuff 🤘
Ok. This lesson looks like its a little above my level, but I will give it a go. You seem to get me through the challenge though. Thank you
1 00:26 C9
2 00:29 F9
3 4:17 Sliding 2 notes of C7 1/2 step down
gives shell voicing or F7 (IV)
4 6:35 C9 (again)
Notes to self;
1 ring finger points to root,
mid fing on 9th at 7th frt.
2 Ring fing is on root, little fing holds
down 3 strings.
3 and can add root to C7 if needed.
Man, you are a legend! Thank you!!!

This video just found every weak spot in my playing.....I just bookmarked! Luv your playing!
Amazing integration and explanation of complex theory into blues for some spice!
Good and relaxed as always. Thanks!
Thanks
Two minutes into this and l'm like why didn't l get here on time,instead of wasting my time on useless tutorials.You got me in buddy!!
This is cool. Thank you. It also showed me why my ears don’t like jazz. It’s the rootless chords. They make my mind reach for the grounded feeling and just distracts me.
Play with a bassline.
Make blues great again! Amazing video
Thanks Jules. Like the timing as much as the chords. Right timing for me as I have been exploring jazz chords in the Blues… 16:52
Nailing the beat with all these slides and syncopation adds to its complexity.
Awesome!!! Please keep making content like this!!!
Awesome lecture as always!
Finally a good jazz blues guitar tutorial, thanx a lot!
That's what I'm talking about! I don't wanna know how to play a song, I wanna know how to build the chords and make my own thing! Thanks for the tutorial, it's been a long time I don't improve that much but you're really helping me!
so much to dig into here it makes my head spin. I'll be practising this all week I can see 👌👋
Okey ! this one was really really great ! I would love to see more of this, even just you playing the tabs ;D!! thank u for the vid. What i love the most are stuff like those added chords like the Gm9 , not jazz'ed up stuff, just "normal" stuff used really great. Amazing example here !!
It's a little insane how detailed and comprehensive this lesson was! 🤘

i never really played blues or appreciated it that much until i saw this video. lofi/pop player
Bro pure bliss and simple way to teach 🙌🏼
You outdid yourself this time- amazing content, extremely well presented.

Amazingly great video … super ability to communicate substantive content … THANK YOU!!
Awesome man, more of this style blues please!!!
Good stuff - love the free tab and theory explanation
Nice man! Its just fantastic.
Amazing Jules you are, thx for your work, so helpful! Greetings from a fellow guitar Jules

Mate you explain well
Very cool but it actually sounds overly busy. Great lesson thou. You are a great teacher
You don't have to play everything by rote. Just possibilities. It's a lesson
Thanks Jules, a very well put together and useful lesson, Icing on the cake would have to included the chord diagram and chord tone list on the tab sheet, would have saved me having to draw them on! 😁Robert
Very cool, thanks for posting this

Hey Jules guitar thanks for this video I always learned from you whenever you upload new videos
What is the name of the guitar you used in this video?
Terrific thank you
Great lesson, Jules. Looking at that rootless C9, it's the same shape and position on the fretboard as an E minor seven, flat five. Is there a simple reason in music theory why this is? I did try googling but came up with nothing. Cheers
Nice bro good job ❤❤

Jules Rules!
merci
Great !
Great!!!!
Youre the best!
Very cool!
You are definitely not “status quo”! You are a cut above the rest Jules!
Sounds like Jazz
are those stock pickups?
Yes
@@JulesGuitar Which model strat is that? Thanks.
Good video ,but those chord diagrams are confusing compared to 90% of the standard ,which have the nut on the top
Great stuff, but that Gm9 chord is killing me :)
I am better for learning this
Hey setup a way I can pay in US $ and I will send you some cash for the download
Amazing super lesson! THANK YOU!
