Make sure to check out Guitar Super System at guitarsupersystem.com for a full breakdown of the magical chords known as triads. Also, comment and let me know which guitarist I should break down the habits of next!
Why Not Kirk Hammet or Paul Gilbert?
...and James Hetfield
Music is Win do Kurt cobain plz!!!!!!!!!!!
Do a habits of Johnny Marr
What happened to the 80% off coupons? do the habits of jimmy page
my habits. bending the string off the neck and gettn that special sound. dropping my pick. hitting my head while leaning down to pick it up. stepping on my cable and snatching it out on the way back up. singing out of tune. tuning up my string while the lock nuts are locked and snapping the string before the nut. if any1 needs a video let me know.
Tone Fingerz I feel you brother soo true what your saying some of that happens to me too.😂
I've been playing 15 years and this is still me
Yeah but make a vid
Tone Fingers, that's very honest, it's very admirable, I bet Jimmy did all of that stuff too. Y know, when the dope was kickin in or waring off, that was his real effect, no pedals required.
You made me laugh deep belly laughs LOL=)
Tyler, your guitar is upside down
I knew something wasn't right (left?)
Mason Langner It was Purple Haze :D
The "headband full of LSD" thing is a myth, he was certainly very into drugs, but he never did anything like that.
it was pepsi, not coke
I know that, I meant that he never went too outside of the box with his drug use, like putting LSD in his headband. I thought the context was obvious, but I guess I wasn't specific enough.
On June 7 1970 in Tulsa Ok my first concert ever had the pleasure watching Jimi Hendrix perform. It was Fabulous.
Ur a lucky guy
👍🎸✌️🤘
Hello fellow okie
That's fantastic. He died September 18th of 1970. Was it an arena show?
@@KeithA_VikingFan Yes full house
Lots of guitar players imitate Hendrix and do it really well, but there's one thing about Hendrix that nobody can come close to: his ability to sing and play his incredible licks, at the same time. His playing is really vocal. Very, very few musicians have the ear and the dual ability that Jimi did. When you add his songwriting talents, you realize that you can spend a lifetime learning his licks but you're still at the bottom of the mountain.
Johnny Winter
sohk13 smith Johnny Winter is my favorite guitar player but they are COMPLETELY different players.
37BopCity George Benson
37BopCity 2017 or get the tone srv is the best Hendrix player of all time he said it’s your hands that speak
Only srv comes the closest because he said he felt a spirit ual bond with him
Drink a shot every time he says "triads".
Can't talk about hendrix without saying "triads" lol
@Jesper Jansen I agree... alcohol is bad for you.
Phhuuk ur Tri-Dads. I’m Not Drunnnk ur drunnnnk.
Im dead...
The more I know about Hendrix the more I realise how much John Mayer and other people have taken from him...
Wagh_Rules John Frusciante is probably the one who took the most from him. I mean, it's sooo obvious at times! Love both of them.
Wagh_Rules John Mayer took more from Stevie who borrowed from Hendrix
Yeah, SRV too was a very Hendrix-influenced guitar player. John Frusciante was very clear about being inspired by him, though.
+Sledx actually he loved Albert king stevie was very bluesy
Wagh_Rules there is a difference between inspiration and taking.
#1 Jimi's *timing*. Very few emulate that essential aspect. His chordal work and sounds are one thing. But his *timing* is the most important and least understood aspect of his playing. You have to play along with him to understand this.
The bends in voodoo child... oof.
I saw Jimi at a concert in Seattle in 68 or 69. He came out and opened solo with just a jaw dropping riff and said he was "just warming up." A real "wow" moment.
Imagine one player, with: Hendrix' chords, SRV' phrasing and Mayers' tone...
and yngwie's speed with steve vai's technicality and david gilmours vibrato
Jeff Buckley and slash’s penis
Jimmy pages heroin dealer is in there somewhere too
Angus young’s stage antics
and Lil Wayne's improvisation skills
Not sure if they've been done before but I'd love to see habits of - Mark Knopfler, Dimebag Darrell, David Gilmour
Habits of Mark Knopfler: throw away your pick.
Ben Edwards and learn to flick the strings instead of pulling them ;)
Ok
And play a right stringed guitar left
Guitar God's only B
If you listen to Axis: it is evident that this guy was a truly unique artist. On songs like "Castles", he starts the song with a oriental sounding intro that goes right into Jimi's signature melodic rhythm playing. In the verses Jimi super imposes beautifully written and poetic lyrics which he sings in almost a post urban rap style. The solo section he jumps back into reverse guitar psychedelia which is very intimate and almost like a violin or string instrument playing a sad melody. Just amazing.
Jim Raimondi, I agree completely. "Castles Made Of Sand" is my favorite song on Axis, and that's saying a lot. One Rainy Wish, Little Wing, Bold As Love---what an amazing album. The backwards guitar stuff (not just the solo, but at the very beginning and near the end) is otherworldly, dream-like and beautiful at the same time. "Not necessarily stoned, but....BEAUTIFUL".
Jim Raimondi isn't it funny how that whole album was made in as short a time as it was. Also that it was about what he picked up from reading The Book of Hopi and childhood/coming of age memories. Like what the hell.....
I just found your channel. I am pushing 60 and wish I had you and the internet to help me learn guitar. Back then I had to ruin KISS LPs, BTO, Led Zeppelin and had to buy them again till I figured out the Rhythms and solos. You are spot on with your tutorials, I'll be watching you to see if I have missed something throughout the years!! Thanks for your efforts, people like you make it so much easier for up and coming musicians.
so maybe hendrix knew theory after all
Orrrr he made It 😂🤷🏼♂️
He invented it....🤣
That homie made theory
Of course he did you can't be a session player without.
Well done.
- from a guitar player who was there (the 60s :)
I've listened to Jimi for fifty years. I learned to play drums listening to his records. there's always been a lot of young men that have understood exactly what he was doing musically. But a major part of music comes from the soul. Not just a set of chords on an instrument. Stevie tried and got close (God rest his soul). But the chords sound great but, it ain't Jimi Hendrix.
I couldn't agree more
In SRV's own words "I try my best to do what I can to carry his music on, but there was only one Jimi hendrix, and there will never be one again."
SRV was way better than Hendrix. He wrote better songs,played cleaner and has his own sound and style that people emulate. Most say they respect Hendrix but you don’t see anyone emulation his playing. There’s a very good reason for that, it’s not worth it. It really isn’t special.
@@12floz67 You're talking from a technical standpoint. I could write a essay with dozens of scholarly words and exquisite grammar, and the overall meaning, structure, and deliverance of the essay could be robotic and redundant. Yet I could write a essay with basic level vocabulary and even have grammatical mistakes but have it be the most capitivating, awe inspiring piece ever written.
Translate this to the guitar.
It's not about the notes you play, it's how you play them and how you structure them together.
@@turntogod4410
I’m talking over all, Hendrix was sloppy and overrated
Nice video but I think you missed an opportunity here. This might sound a bit weird, but I have listened to Hendrix since 1967 and often wondered about what made his playing so special. I think his number one habit was to listen intently, and to respond accordingly, to whatever sound he was ACTUALLY making (as opposed the notes he might have thought he was playing). It's a subtle point - but you can easily tell the difference when you listen to other players going through the motions, or playing to a formula. He played his amp just as much as his guitar and would do something unpredictable, listen to the result, then respond instinctively and fearlessly IN THAT EXACT MOMENT. When he was at his best, his whole being was focused on what was happening right in the moment - not on the sequence of some fancy lick or progression or what he was going to do next - or even what he might have thought he was doing. He got totally present and he listened really carefully, then he acted instinctively. This is why so many of his licks were one-off's. If you feel like copying Jimi, I suggest that you first focus on copying his mindset, rather than his notes. Then you can be your own genius. Oh, and his number two habit was to practice and/or play ALL the time.
Why tear this guy down? Some of us stand to benefit from this..
Pointing out an opportunity is very different from "tearing someone down". What do you think about my take on Jimi's approach?
Alec Stansfield I agree totally.
Brilliantly analyzed, so true, the civilized west is so busy playing chords and predetermined scales, whereas Jimi was just listening to his belly and to his guitar, and until the day you start practicing that, nothing will ever sound like him...
Just comes down to learning to improvise - anyone trying to play lead ought to know how to go off the rails.
Hendrix's lead level of improvisational music wasn't just world-class competitive, =he'd then take it to his own rhythm=, something he'd leave a Clapton in the dust with.
Oh and he's singing over all this. Good luck
Lil Wayne habits!
Stevie T has already done that loooong time ago!
cancer joke
Okay i'm sorry. Maybe because my English is not that good
Cancer is such a diabetes word!
dope and little boys
Habits of David Gilmour, why not?
Great video Tyler \m/
Giovanni William Guidi pentatonic scale. :)
Yoan Pantchev yeah.. if only was a matter of scales.. ;)
Yoan Pantchev He asked for habits of Gilmour, not the habits of everybody. Jackass
Yes, please.
Yes, that'd be absolutely splendid.
I'm old, old enough to have seen Hendrix live. I can't tell you how much this gladdens my heart. Thank you
My biggest habit is recording myself without a metronome and seeing how off time I was.
Oh and the " 7#9 Hendrix Chord" was stock and trade of Jazz musicians. He was the first to play it a lot outside of Jazz. It's like Blast Beats. Everyone thinks that's a metal thing, comes from Jazz.
Oh and you need a vibe to do machine gun. It's not a wah at all.
Jesus Christ fuzz face, take your shit somewhere else
can't really imagine how blast beats could fit with jazz but ok
@@stickydriftz 🤣🤣 cool info, but funny reply
Pretty much all rock comes from jazz and blues. Hendrix was more blues then rock in my opinion, he just inspired so many rock guitarist he gets the rock label. Being the first to do something does not make it the best or inspiring. Hendrix was an inspiration and that made him one of the best. But thanks anyway for the history lesson.
Rock evolved from jazz and blues
I understand he usually smoked a cigarette and took a dump first thing in the morning.
This "habits of series" has helped me so much!
The way you explain things and the pace, just clicks for me.
Definitely one of the best guitar teachers on the internet. IMO
I've been playing bass for over 30 years, just local gigs mostly. Alot of original and cover projects over the years.
Playing guitar is sometimes more entertaining at home for fun.
I've been stuck at intermediate level on guitar for a while though.
Funny how 50 years later still no one can take his place as the greatest!
Habits of PRINCE!!!
no
Yes!
Planet Oid fuk you yes
Zeke Emery yes, fuck off
The fuck yes always under rated
You're by far the best teacher on UA-cam, I can even begin to tell you how much I improved since I started watching your vids, thank you so very much.
your videos have to be amongst the best. I've seen a few but to me, yours are best. love them, I've learnt so much
Hey Tyler - thanks for the great video! FYI - The 7aug9 chord is common in Jazz. You'll find it in a lot of bee-bop from the 50s and I'm sure that's where Jimi got it. His voicing, without the 5th, is another example of his excellent rhythm guitar habits. He used a lot of triads (and, as in this case, 4-note voicing) because he learned as a sideman to stay out of the way of the vocals. Listen to his work with the Isley Brothers (e.g., Testify) and you'll hear the same chords (including the four-note 7#9). Thanks again for the great viddies!
Wes used this in a lot of his songs...
+Mike Hunsberger - Yes, It's very common in Jazz.
Guitar was rarely used as a main element of music in the 50's, or around the time jimi was playing as a sideman. It was dumb
I’m thinking a lot of these guitar legends didn’t even think of triads, scales, inversions or any theory or structure at all but it’s awesome you break it down from this point of view for learning purposes. I would say they just obsessed over their instruments and it became a part of their soul and life. It wasn’t an instrument to learn as a hobby for them but it was part of their soul and and another form of communication they learned just like speaking.
after 50 years you are one of the fortunate ones with the insight
and respect to appreciate jimi`s work his flair and bring it into
the present ,i take my hat off to you kid,, thanks for just this !!
Major collector and fan of Jimi Hendrix ! You do the best I have have ever heard at achieving tones, textures and other nuances that Jimi applied to the Notes and Sounds he played with such grace and seemingly "NO" effort " Highway Child " "If 6 was 9""Axis Bold as Love " I used to play Tenor Sax but I sold it several years ago when a guy at my garage sale asked did I have any musical instruments. I've been wanting to play again for the past few years but I have not gotten another Sax yet. THANK YOU for showing me the right way to make those sounds he made with such freedom and abandon ! I never realized how much of his sound came from using thumb in the Bass range! Amazing !!
legend has it that if you learn all of the triads Tyler grants you one wish
3 wishes, actually. *TRI*ads
Habits of Dr.Brian May
You're one of the best people teaching guitar man. I highly appreciate your work. Keep it going
Thanks Tyler, I've been watching your videos for a while. I apply allot of what I learn from you. Thank you so much.
The great thing about Hendrix is his ability to play as he feels it, self taught. You can try to pinpoint his style, but you'll only be second guessing.
One of the best guitar channels on UA-cam
I've watched your videos for a couple of years now, but not seen these habit videos before. This is awesome. Thank you for this. Next month im signing up for your lessons as I'm stuck in a rut with my playing, and although I've played on and off for 20 odd years, I still want to learn more.
Been watching your videos for a bit & want to thank you for posting them. Your new studio looks great!
"I have a picture of him hanging right there"
it says a lot u know
Love this days when its not all about the PRS
Excellent vid Tyler. Inspiring & luv all of them. Thx man !
Hey man, this is a really great video. It is the first that I see from your channel. When I started playing guitar I bought two books on how to play Jimi Hendrix and Guns N´Roses, I was 14 and playing Hendrix was a revelation to me. I didn´t realized how much you could do with a guitar. Since that time I learned that you could put a lot of detail in every part of the guitar. And I want to say that you really nailed this video, I agree with so many things that you said. Keep up the good work, I´ll definitely be checking the other videos.
do habits of rory gallagher next he needs more fans :)
chris rivet So underrated in the US... I live in the town hes buried in
You earned a cookie, Hail Rory!
chris rivet Rory is the king
Agreed Rory doesn't get enough love.
he need endless love
hail rory!
Mark Knopfler next?
iTesla I would love to see this
iTesla. OK one hit wonder song lick Believer!!. Lol 😂
YESSS,
Maybe the time when mark pressed the wah pedal halfway and got that awesome effect in money for nothing? Maybe?
Great study. I admire the skill and hard work you've put into your guitar playing. Much respect
The best presentation of the Hendrix style I have ever seen. I'm 50 and I've seen a few. Great job as always.
Still waiting for Habits of Randy Rhoads 😔
Ilir Piliki still waiting 😕
he cant play that
@wildcatter63 lol Mick Ronson is amazing but can't touch RR
"woah, getting a little carried away there" that's the line that'll get the girls
Your videos are just wonderful. Thanks, always learn from them!
Great video Tyler. Your instruction is awesome! Spurs me to practice. Thanks a lot.
Habit one, being a badass legend
This might sound kinda lame but it’s true... I also discovered that Hendrix chord independently. Just kinda happened upon it in my years of playing. I’m no guitar hero, and mostly self taught. The big difference is that Hendrix discovered it long before that style and sound was used prevalently. Whereas, when a player like me discovers it, we hear something familiar there. That counts for A LOT but it’s still cool that we can have a degree of shared experiences to even the greatest player to ever live.
thanks for helping out us guitar players, great videos. peace and love
What beautiful tone. Amazing playing as always. Just brilliant.
Habits of George Harrison.
Strum some chords
JamesRegeCarling if that’s what you think about George you’re a fuckin moron
Carlos Rodriguez Jr. spot on. If you try to learn some of George Harrison’s lead guitar, you will find it comes with difficulty and you can see many techniques sprawled out all over the guitar work. His guitar isn’t always easy... at all
JamesRegeCarling lol
@@JamesRegeCarling lol
Nice video.
One thing to think about when talking habits, is to consider his left hand and wrist placement. Playing an upside guitar, as a left handed player myself, is a challenge. If you hold your arm/wrist/hand in a normal playing position, you will hit your knobs and turn them down, messing your sound, tone, etc. as a way of fixing this, he held his arm either hovering over or behind the bridge. This game his tone a completely different feel, and made the guitar sound differently. In addition, a restrung righty has the pickup going across the strings in the opposite direction than it was designed. One thing you could try is to take a left handed squire, restring it, and then play with your right hand/wrist placement.
I end up holding it at an angle where my elbow is near the bottom strap button, which also puts my fingers and wrist lines up more parallel to the strings instead of at 90 degrees...
Great info, great performance!
Thanks for sharing with us.
This is so well done. Love the close ups, the breakdowns and the content! Jimi was the Greatest. Paco de Lucia even had a big poster of him on the wall.
Watching this and I can bearly play smoke on the water.
Have you reached guitar enlightenment, friend? I have started pursuing my guitar journey recently and am also watching.
@@ReizokoRyu Good luck. Keep tryign and 100% you will get it.
9:09 “angry erotic vibrato” is an important Hendrix habit for those planning on getting married one day
Great Great video man!! You play with so much comfort like it's all easy to you, beautiful Fender Strat by the way!! Nice to see that such a great player is a Hendrix fan!
I always shiver when I hear jimi play
Now here's a guy who loves his triads
Well, this was superb. I thought: fifteen minutes watching someone play guitar? But it shot past in no time. Really informative, and makes the Hendrix sound feel attainable.
I hope you've got plenty more Habit Of... videos in the pipeline. Three that I would really like to see, for very different reasons, are Ritchie Blackmore, Dave Gilmour and The Edge.
The essence of the edge is basically delay & reverb covering up his lack of skill and practice
@@dominikweber4305 In a sense I don't disagree. But the genius of the Edge is that he took his ignorance of guitar theory and his lack of technical skill, and used other elements to create something unique and evocative (and now very widely emulated). I think that's worth celebrating.
The ad i got before this was incredible. "Ernie Ball Paradigm: Stronger than Paul Gilbert". Badass shit.
Jimi's guitar playing was phenomenal and so way ahead of its time
that we tend to forget his song writing skills which were almost equally
out of this world.
From Little Wing to Fire.
From Purple Haze to The Wind Cries Mary etc...
Nearly 50 years after his death, the material he composed sounds as fresh as ever.
Add to this a very interesting singing voice that made him one of the
best male vocalists of his era and you have a package that no Clapton, Mayer or SRV
could ever match.
Habits of Dimebag Darrell next please!
Play mediocre metal, get shot.
oh, and lots and lots of whammy bar because actual bends are for suckers.
onstr mediocre metal? Some people need to sit down and learn something else than triads...
onstr go fuck yourself
I was fucking myself twice daily before you ever mentioned it, Mr. Homan.
Fayuk, He didn't further the metal conversation. He played muddy music that seemed to be the theme for trailer park drug dealers. There are far better guitarists out there. He got shot then a bunch of people downed cheap beer to his memory because they got their first blowjob at a Pantera concert, that doesn't make him a great.
Onstr what a stupid comment. Dimebag is in the same league as Hendrix in terms of talent, influence, phrasing and changing how the guitar is played. Like nobody can sound like Hendrix same goes for Dimebag he was legendary. He was a bending machine what the hell are you talking about and had some of the best vibrato ever in the history of guitar playing. If you play guitar which I suspect you do not you should quit immediately.
Break down the habits of buddy holly
Emileo Santos Yes! 👍
Dave Weston damn
+Music is Win All Habits videos are great! But you put your heart out in this one!! It shows !!!
so happy I found your videos!
habits of Jimmy Page and Randy Rhoads!!
Bro loved every second of it. Awesome keep those habits up. I would love to see Hammet or Hetfield habits next. Like if you agree!!
I really like what you are doing man, your determination, your passion! As Long as it feels good within you keep it up! Much love! :)
Brother, thanks for the time and the upload. Fantastic !!
EXCUSE ME while I Subscribe this guy
Habits of Jerry Cantrell and Ritchie Blackmore! Please!
Jimi is only number 1 there is no one like him,he played with a passion that not to many do now.his love for each and every note came out with each move what else can I say.
Good choice in describing Jimis chord selection..... "more Flourishing"......I definitely agree. Great lesson. I will check your other ones
Angus Young next time :), great hendrix video !!
Habits of Matt Bellamy!
Alberto Di Deo yes preeze
this is so awesome! thanks! Best video in a long time!
What a great lesson. thank you.
Habits of a Nameless Ghoul or Mikael Åkerfeldt or Adam Jones next!!!
Habits of Jimmy Page
Good vid thanks. Hendrix was beyond genius, no one else comes close, His gift for melodic harmonic ryhmthic passages is mind blowing.
That strat sounds amazing dude!
"Going deep in depth"
if we're doing classic guitarists, do david gilmour please
Thanks for the great lesson
So surprised when I first started watching this channel when I couldn't find a habits of hendrix vid knowing your love for triads. sooo happy it was finally made. Some other suggestions- David Gilmour, Mark Knopfler, Alex Lifeson, BB King, Jimmy Page, Eddie Hazel, Brian May, Prince
can you please do habits of george harrison
Dude why? Thats like "habits of the color beige"
GH was a good writer, a good musician, but at the guitar he was strongly average.
crashraynor he had a particular slide technique and a slow way to play
Can you please do a habits of Mark Knopfler from Dire Straits!
I want to listen to the sound of your mic cable all the time. I want to listen to it brush up against anything and everything nearby. that tinny, plastic sound adds to the experience here.. Such good value. Such fun! More please!
this guitar habits series is the best thing about your channel. Pretty cool stuff, hope you do more of these more often.
Suggestions: Harrison, Mark Knopfler, Paul Simon, Keith Richards, Josh Homme
David Gilmour
Habits of Jeffrey Dahmer
Oh... umm
yes
I bet if he were a musician, he would really eat up the crowds.
that guy had some serious chops
@@SeemsLikeSomething literally
Great video. I can see that you are inspired. The close ups are very instructive. Often people show fingerings in a way that you can hardly tell which finger is on the fret board and which ones are hovering above a string. I think that getting carried away is actually the point!
Wow dude your super knowledgeable about the history of awesome guitars players and your an awesome guitar player! Love your videos man I just bought a guitar and I can’t wait to keep playing and learning how to play. Thanks again.
