Such basic things that most lessons on line assume. I like that you are teaching and not showing how "awesome" you play. You actually are interested is sharing skills not trying to be arrogant like many are. Been following you for quite some time and i am a better guitarist for it. Thank you so very much for what you do. It is very appreciated
Dude 100% one of the best guitar lessons I ever had, sat with this for a couple hours and wrote a psychobilly riff I'm so proud of. Definitely expanded my playing thank you so much.
DRC , man your lick and riff lessons are the best on the web! Fast, easy, one blends to the next , and makes for fun solos and me sounding a hell of a lot better than I really am. Your teaching speed is perfect, lots of help in a short but not overwhelming length lesson ! Thanks for all of your hard work, it is appreciated by me for sure. Boston Mike
@@jonjeffries3265 - Hello! There are plenty of UA-cam videos on the 6120RHH. I’m sure they do a much better job than I could. I will say it’s a great guitar, I love mine. Cheers!
Perfection. Thanks dude. Perfect intro to basic rockabilly that I was looking for. It's a genre I've been meaning to get my feet wet with. Gretsch is on the way. Awesome. Thanks again.
Great lesson I can play the end riff relatively easy but breaking this down would help loads of learners and that swing and feel you introduced really well, cheers
Thank you. This is for beginners like me, and I feel like I have several fun things to practice now. When I can play a passable 12-bar blues, I'll be well on my way to my guitar goals.
As wayne here said, that you're teaching and not performing is appreciated. Kudos for that. SO... the last exercise adding the extra notes in the riff is good, BUT... playing it with basic chords on root (instead of single note) adds another interesting exercise for the neck hand ring and middle fingers, especially during the G segment. Barring the open G with index and middle then fingering the progression of the riff with ring and pinky makes me focus on not lifting my middle finger while fingering the ring. Maybe it's just me, but that's a great exercise for individual finger dexterity, especially middle and ring. Thanks for another great basic rockabilly tutorial.
I was playing these riffs when i was 12, no yutube then, today i watched your vid start to finish, you know what you're doing because you do it so well, keep it up. Rock on,,,
Love all of these ' breaking it down' videos. Really helps me to pick up & play music I love. And would love to see you guys play somewhere around Cardiff when things pick up again. There's some great places here to play!
Thanks Again for your explanations and demos. You can’t imagine how much these help people beginning to play guitar. Got my first guitar in 1957 in El Paso,TX: long before Tuners and decades before the internet. Everything was a challenge trying to figure out the fretboard, reading music notation-nothing was in tabs. Your videos save people what took me years to figure out. Keep sharing the videos !! 😁🌴🎸
Awesome! Thank you so much, I'm a very basic guitar player, but I know a few things here and there and can find my way around the frets now, memorizing this over the next week or two will be great fun and man it sounds go good.
Playing guitar on and off for 34 years now. Until today, I have not found my favorite style yet and was noodling over blues, blues rock and rock ‘n' roll, and it was okay, but it was never IT, if you know what I mean. Then, about two hours ago, one of your videos popped up in my recommendations. Since then, everything is different, everything makes sense now. I first thought, that it's gonna be way too fast for my 48-year-old fingers. But once my mind was riding the wave, my fingers just followed. You have no idea what you've done to me today. Thank you!
I'm not a that level yet .. but when I'll be there I will re-watch that video many time until I can mastered those licks. I think the way you show the 12 bar blues structure is the easiest way to understand it ... I had an harmonica teacher who got issue to explain it and I never was able to understand it but by seeing the way you separate it ... I've understand it at the first time and was able to anticipate the other licks. thanks for that lesson !!!
Great basic introduction. One thing that often gets overlooked is the right hand - I find playing the right hand cleanly much more difficult than the left hand at the speed of the faster psycho shuffle and the swinging hillbilly. Could be because I started as a finger-picker and also have done some basic power chords, neither of which is anything like a quick alternating up-down picking motion switching between two strings. But I know many beginner and late beginner guitarists who would find similar difficulty compared to the left hand. This video reminded me for the thousandth time that I need to constantly work on this.
You’re right, I think in future I might consider an ‘up down up down’ instruction to these exercises . I just did a video about strumming patterns that might help with your right hand. The video is looking at chords but we use a similar concept a lot of the time when playing single notes Thanks a lot for your comment!
Yeah, at first I was doing it all down picking and was having a hard time keeping the rhythm speed then realized you are alternate picking so I started doing that… then I realized I really don’t know how to alternate pick well haha. I’m a late beginner and yes, a video on strumming patterns would be awesome! Love your channel! This is great stuff 🤘
Thanks for something to mess around with over the weekend to help with timing and keeping track of bar counting! Seems like I have to get used to feeling 12 bars and bar timing. 👍
Hopefully this will explain it. If not I will clarify another time! It’s just a case of counting the bars, it gets easier with practice and will become second nature. Have a great weekend pal!
Golden lessons for rockabilly lovers. Thank you so much for make it easy! I don't know if you have been asked before for a guitar lesson of the Johnny Burnette Trio's "The Train Kept a-Rollin'". Despite I've looked through the whole internet I can't find a good one.
Hello from Sydney, Australia. Really helpful video, thank you. Love your accent too. Reminded me of the four years I spent living in Horsforth in Leeds although I'm originally from the other side of the Pennines. Seemed to spend half my life on the M62 going back and forth across Saddleworth moor. Off to practise your lesson now.
@@DEATHRAYCAT More of a Cheshire Cat than a Death Ray Cat then. Me too, from Knutsford. I wish my fingers could keep up with the note/fret/chord changes as fast as my mind tells them to. Yes, yes, I hear you, practise, practise, practise............
@@DEATHRAYCAT I really am enjoying it. I'm sure you remember the first time you felt like, "Hey! I'm playing something now!" Yeah. Good times. Thanks again for this and the backing track.
Hello J'adore et je découvre vos vidéos , c'est génial ce que vous faites , vraiment.. ce son , cette musique me fait vibrer. Merci pour tout ce temps consacré aux autres. Je suis fan . Musicalement Thierry
i have been playing in classic rock tributes for 20 years and i thought i would try to do a rockabilly band for a change. i thought going back to basics to get it right would be easy.. its not, .its very hard to slow it all down. its like slammin the breaks on a speeding big block at the end of a 1/4 mile. what a great place to start to re learn all the basics i skipped over. thanks
Breaking it down for the newbies and doing it right. Good job. Chuck is always the way to go. The only one I learned as much from was Marc Bolan because he was a thief and a cheater. Lol. Good job. You new people listen to this man! This is how rock and roll is done. For real.
Hey friend, what a fantastic video. I just wrote a little rockabilly song in F major, then I recorded it for the channel. I just love your style, I was influenced by Micky Gee and Dave Edmunds, the whole Rockpile scene. Keep up that beautiful playing brother. Paul.
You channel is godsend dude, I am graduating from punk rock to rock n roll and rockabilly and your videos have been really helpful since I have never had a tutor or something
Thank you so much! The videos I've seen before this one are good, but they don't show the tabs. For great players, they don't need the tabs, but for me, I need them. The last one is not that hard theorically. The difficulty is in respecting the tempo. Easy to drag or play too fast certain notes. These are great exercises to develop tempo.
