    Love the 'now make it your own' attitude. Jimi played every song different every time. Great song, great lesson, I will watch it again I'm sure. I have liked, commented, and subscribed, even though you didn't ask anyone to do so. I didn't realize that it was possible to end a UA-cam vid without asking people to 'like, comment, subscribe', well done.

    So james love this song choice. I've been actively playing since early 70s, my maple clear strat, plexi and 4x12s long since sold for rent. FNP done finally after 17 years of school.
    This tune was a nice choice for the afternoon, good style, well discussed. Your the best!

    It sounds good man but if you listen to the album during the verse he switches that Riff Off the second time around it does something else and then the third time around because something else you're missing like two or three other cords in the first part and I can't find anybody online except for this one guy who's playing it right but he don't stop and show you what chords he's playing

    Picked up the guitar when I was 12 years old and everytime I listen to these tutorials everyone one sounds different if you don't have the sheet music then of course it's going to sound different everyone learns the song Different and everyone's going to play the song Different because everyone hears something different and again unless you're using sheet music and learned it from the sheet music but it's all good it all sounds 👍 I personally prefer that way makes music more interesting that way

    I noticed that you and many other guitar players with a lot of experience do your power chords and A shaped bar chords with your pinky. I do mine with my ring finger as my pinky is weak still. Is your pinky just a preference or is there a reason behind it? I assume you started with your ring finger as well?

    • @jamesjames9275
      @jamesjames9275  3 роки тому

      Mainly just for comfort. If you've playing a bar gig from 10pm-2am, playing barre chords with a ring finger can cause hand cramps, so I switched to little finger many years ago.

    • @jamesjames9275
      @jamesjames9275  3 роки тому

      @@GeorgeSPAMTindle Before the SG Custom, Jimi played a Black Beauty LP Custom for a few gigs. In '68, he started using the Gibson(s) onstage for blues numbers, e.g., Red House. (Should have used one for Bleeding Heart at the RAH show, although it's silly to complain at all about that performance on the Strat.) But he was playing a right-handed LP flipped upside-down and the upper fret access was pretty lousy. So he switched to the SG Custom, and then later to the Flying V. I think he actually had two different V's. I've always assumed it was one of the V's as the main guitar on Dolly Dagger.

      @@jamesjames9275 Thanks for the informative reply. I think Jimi played a white Vee at the Isle of Wight gig for Lover Man, and I'm sure that I've seen film of him with a black one, and with the red one with hand painted decoration added. Jimi was buried with his seven favourite strat's, so he definitely had a decent guitar collection. Bleeding Heart at RAH is one of my favourite live working of any blues number.
