Incredible. When I have to name my favorite guitarists of all time, these days I’m saying “Hendrix, Frusciante, and Danish Pete” No joke. I miss Guitar Paradiso *so* much.
It's the feel. By the way, check Chris with Dan and Mick on That Pedal Show and you'll see astonishing playing and, as usual, inspiring discussion of tone. That Chris is a genuinely great dude also shines through as well. Thanks, Chris.
This man is living proof that gear does not affect tone he could make a yard stick and yarn sound amazing. Its in your hands. He makes every piece of gear sound amazing watch the vids. From squires to gibsons absolutely amazing. I practice everyday in hopes of half this mans talent. With a little jimmy and stevie and i will be happy. I stopped changing gear and concentrated getting out of bad habits. Best advise i give now is YOUR TONE COMES FROM LOTS OF PRACTICE NEVER GIVE UP KEEP PLAYING. THANK YOU SIR. GREAT VID EXCELLENT PLAYING
I could be wrong...I think you must have some US southern soul in you. It is a pleasure to watch "and " hear your playing. Kudos young man. You are an inspiration
"Tone is in the fingertips" I never knew what this meant until I watched Danish Pete demonstrate every guitar and pedal and amp under the sun but still have that deft touch. Dynamics is probably the most important lesson I've learned recently with my soloing. Vibrato is a constant battle. Great lesson 😊
Please make a video like this once a week! You have made me a better player every time I watch a Danish Pete Tuition video! Please do many, many, many more of these!!!
This is a GREAT lesson! To put it in a nutshell, I always tell my wind instrument students to play their instrument as though they were a singer singing a beautiful ballad. Do this by using vibrato - at varying speeds and NEVER like a machine gun! - dynamics and feeling (emotion). In the case of the guitar as Pete is saying, “feel” and “touch” on the guitar strings adds an important element to the mix. Without these components to one’s playing, it is not music, it is a technical exercise. Music is supposed to evoke an emotional response in the listener. If a player can’t do that, they aren’t a true musician, they are a technician. Some players think that flying fingers and lots of distortion makes them some kind of music “God.” In reality it is merely covering up the fact that they can’t feel the music, and they are incapable of comprehending and using the techniques Pete is talking about here. Just stomp on those effects pedals, crank the volume up to 12, and fly the fingers and you have arrived. NOT!! To a true musician that is just noise which is totally devoid of human emotion. It just leaves me cold wanting for something far more musical and tasteful. Pete is a musician’s musician. His playing is so very tasteful and loaded with the stuff that tugs on the heart strings! Class act to be sure! Thanks Pete for demonstrating some very important techniques which make listening to your playing such an immersive exciting experience - especially for we experienced musicians who are “in the know” about what makes music come alive. I hope these tips will wake up some young inexperienced aspiring players to hear the true artistry involved in great guitar playing. Pete whenever I am looking for the best Anderton’s videos I look for the ones you, Rabea and Ariel are involved in. 🤩. Please keep ‘em coming! 👏🏻👏🏻
Entirely agree, all but the distortion being used to hide stuff comment. Thats about as a wrong a statement as you could make about distortion or high gain sounds. Not only does it compress the hell out of the sound, making even the slightest mis placed notes and unwanted transient harmonics and unwanted ringing strings just as loud as any thing else your playing, forcing you to play much cleaner then you actually would need to if you werent using the distortion, it's also a helluva lot trickier to get the sound itself "right" in a way that isnt unpleasant to the listeners. (unless its just a terrible quality distortion sound). I honestly chuckle every time i see someone claim people use distortion to hide something in their playing. It's quite the opposite actually. Clean tones hide sloppy playing lol. To me that statement just says "Im insecure about my playing ability and also have no idea what im talking about" That being said, this point has nothing to do with the quality of music, and feel a given guitar player has as well, not even in the slightest, and claiming that it does quite literally will destroy your credibility as a musician in most peoples eyes. Not just the meatheads cranking gain to 12 every time they play. Nor do these statements intentionally detract from the quality of any players such as Pete. Who i agree is an absolute legend. Most people in the heavy crowd are also really cool, really down to earth relaxed, non judgmental people. VERY unlike yourself.
You're welcome! You may underestimate your fan base Pete. We truly are inspired by said vibrato, melody, and dynamics in your playing. You've got some cool licks to back it all up, plenty of blues and harmonic styles intertwine from your knowledge base. Always great to watch you play.
When I showed a previous guitar teacher that I was getting good vibrato by pressing and releasing pressure on the string, he told me, "Stop doing that-nobody does that. It won't work." Thanks for proving I was right, Pete!
The Vibrato control tip got me. Especially leaving a pause between the attack and the inception of the vibrato. Need to practice slowing down and chilling out.
i have to agree with the comments below. i have come back to guitars shortly before the lockdown. so thankful i did. part of that awakening is this channel. and youtube . this chap is really good. such talent and humbleness. pity he does not prefer les pauls. i will forgive lol. keep the tunes rollin.
Already 200 comments - mostly complementary and well deserved ... - instead of just complimenting you will seek out your published music and purchase it - you are a great musician and a great human being for sharing your tips in such a lovely way
Thanks so much Pete for helping get all this stuff inside of me get out.every time I sit down with these videos of yours,a bit more surfaces every time.I so dig the attack of your lessons and the approach you use.I'm almost 60 and come from an Ohio farmers town and am filled with the blues inside.and with your insipration,more and more shows all the time.thank you so much for being a mentor of music to me.your style and experience is second to none in my book and you take your time to help teach others to play.what an extraordinary muscisian! Keep up the great work and God bless you and yours.
I'd like to add something that I've learned, is that escalation is important. Starting your solo with a burning fast shreddy lick is great, but if you spend the rest of the solo doing your best B.B King, it's not gonna work, and vice versa. Know when to play fast and when to slow down. A solo that's 100mph all the time has nowhere to go, and a solo that has no escalation, be it in terms of speed or harmonic complexity, has little impact.
Only recently discovered Pete via the Anderton’s channel.....omg what a stellar guitarist, love the melodic phrases and awesome touch. Has the touch and feel of another Pete - Peter Green no less and I can’t think of a higher compliment to pay! Greeny is my all time favourite guitarist, DP is right up there and I can’t get enough.....what we need is a Danish Pete album as soon as possible!!!
This brings back memories of when I had lessons on vibrato, I remember him saying it was like I was playing a violin. Great video Pete, i love the chord progressions you come up with, very inspirational.
Great great video! I'm blessed to of had my grandad teach me these techniques when I was younger. This video is top class :) very direct and chilled out.
Thanks pete for pulling me out of my little rut I've been in.these simple things from the best(my favorite guitarist of all times)guitarist makes me sound like a real winner in my home studio in Ohio.you play each note with so much meaning its ridiculous!the way you teach me to slide from note to note using vibrato and the soulful ways you show how not to play the same licks over and over again is just incredible! I could listen to you all day,but of course I wouldn't get any better that way.thanks so much for taking your precious time to show us your ways so we can improve on ourselves that maybe we can some day come closer to play as you do.(fat chance!!!)you da man Pete.please keep em coming!
Thanks pete, just watching you playing helps my guitar playing become more melodic, you have some of the most tastiest licks, I could listen to you play all day
I really enjoy these little sessions Pete. I admire your skills and your style of playing. I love the Tele also. I hope you continue with these. They are very educational for me. Thank you for sharing your talents. Tell the Captain Hi
Every time I watch one of your videos I start out thinking, man, this guy is too advanced for me to get much out of this. And then I end up getting a lot out of it anyway!
Wonderful tutorial Many Thanks Pete as a piano /keys player and professional teacher I love it when guitarists value melody and touch , great to encourage that hybrid finger and pick alternation techniques.
My first time seeing you on UA-cam. I've spent more and more time on UA-cam lately learning and more often than not it's lessons from guys like you. (A compliment) I've been playing for nearly 40 years and until about 10 years ago I concentrated on shredding. Now that I've "grown up", I've discovered there's so much more to learn. I've always been a fan of the blues, jazz and fusion but avoided jazz for years. Now that playing melodically is so important to me, teachers like you are so valuable to me. I'll subscribe to your page, go through your lessons and look forward to new ones. Thank you, this lesson was so valuable to me.
Thank you for a fabulous video, Pete. A little master class in breaking out of the mundane rut. The playing is so soulful. An inspiration in every sense of the word.
So.. I came to this video because I was so amazed by the solo you played while doing a shoot out for Andertons (16:02- The Ultimate Modelling Amp Shootout) and I am not sure if I should laugh, or cry, because it was a darn shoot out video, and yet it was 20 seconds of musical brilliance. It's like finding poetry in a bubble gum commercial... lol Anyways, you sound amazing, and I'm hoping to learn from you by watching more of your jazzy sounds!
In a whirlwind of new guitar lust, I recently discovered the Andertons shows and consequently the one and only Danish Pete! Beautiful playing Sir and great tips, you have inspired me to dust off the old LP and play for hours :-)
There was a time, not too long ago, when I would strictly watch Rob en Rabea ripping it out on Andertons, and I would advocate the shredz everytime. That is, until I heard Pete playing... Out of this world! Pete can play the same note 20 times in a row and would still sound like heaven. Such an amazing feel for music, phrasing, just an amazing player to watch and hear! @Pete seriously, make a solo album and I'll buy it in a snap!
Just subscribed a few days ago, but I absolutely love you and Lee's videos as well as your own. The comedic play between you and Lee is fun to watch and I'm truly impressed with your talent. I lament not having nice long fingers to reach the chord shapes you are able to achieve. Thanks for this great lesson, especially the ideas about being more melodic and dynamic. Be well and keep making great videos Danish Pete!
Thanks for this Pete, very generous of you to use your talent this way. Interesting seeing the way you go between major and pentatonic scales, would love to see more vids on this.
Excellent video Pete, good stuff coming out of you and Rob bouncing ideas off each other. Two gentlemen with different styles and really putting good information into the hands of the rest of us through excellent demonstration. May you have continued success sir. As always thank you for your gracious efforts.
Peter, as always thank you for sharing such awesome tips. Great to see you with the Captain, and on TPS. That clip of you taking the solo in front of 10's of thousands of people was awesome. I hope you continue to share your skills and wish you continued success. Cheers!
As an old school player, I began in '71, I follow the chords and focus on being melodic as opposed to scale driven shred, but of course a lot depends on what you are playing, Pete is definitely an old school player :)
Ill say, I`ve experimented with all these ideas, but never thought of them like one skill set before. So very inspiring and a great new reaason to pick up my guitar! Awesome vid!
About the vibrato: I think every players has it's own vibrato signature. If you listen to Mark Knopfler, his vibrato is so recognisable. It's pretty fast most of the time, even in slow songs. He does change tempo, but it's so recognisable. Just like BB king. That's mainly how I know it's BB playing (very fast and deep).
A good vibrato technique is essential. I think I use too much sometimes. You nailed it with trying to not end your lick with vibrato. It is really tough to let a note sustain without wiggling it a bit. Thanks Pete, keep up the great work!
I’m still learning how to really play guitar. Being a bassist at heart, I never wanted to be the soloist. Now, I’m in an acoustic trio (expanding into some electric) and am concerned about soloing, and tone because I’ll never be a fast player. I use my ear a TON! 5-watt amp, SM57, a few pedals for some different colors, and I think I can be pleasing to our audience’s ears. Thanks for this, Pete.
Love these tips PETE, you’ve told me a lot here, more like this please. Personally the big point you’ve made to me here is slow down think take your time.
Wanted to let you know that The Dane is an awesome pedal. Has great sounds and is crazy dynamic. Absolutely love it!! So ya know you have a signed pedal make it to Oklahoma in the US. Loved the message on the back. Good luck to you, I always look forward to your videos..
Something very interesting that he missed was breathing and I've noticed this in my own playing. Breathe with the music, he does it at about 10:00 & you can hear him using timed breaths. I only recently realised I did this and it helps get 'in the zone' so to speak & feel the music more
Great 3 tips, and awesome to hear Chris buck mentioned. A fantastic guitarist. Don't forget he is playing live in London Hoxton Square this Friday 21 Sept, about £10 a ticket. Anyone local to London should go and check it out!
Nice one! Another good way to practice your Vibrato and get a good feel for it, is to practice it with a metronome. Maybe 8th notes "down and down and.."
After watching your visit to That Pedal Show I subscribed and got on the Dane wait list. Looking forward to more from you. You and Lari Basilio should collaborate- you both have melodic styles. Awesome.
Tip #4: Whenever possible, incorporate Purple Rain into your solo.
That little 1-7-1-7-1-7-2 works so well with any major chord structure
i vibrato with my 3rd finger not the others. it has most feel.
Lol! 😁 Darn right! 👌
Incredible. When I have to name my favorite guitarists of all time, these days I’m saying “Hendrix, Frusciante, and Danish Pete”
No joke.
I miss Guitar Paradiso *so* much.
Dimebag, Morello and Pete
Definitely one of my favorites, especially his chordal stuff.... 🤤
Peter Honoré and Chris Buck.
Guthrie Trapp and Danish Pete
Paradiso with Pete and Mick was so good!
So refreshing to hear Peter play. No technique to impress, just to enhance the melody. And so much feel. A truly great musician. Thanks!
Whenever I listen to Pete play it always makes me go and play guitar, which always makes me sad that I can't play as well as him. Such a vicious cycle
just dont use such much vibrato in your "improwizaschion"
Thank you Pete, you’re too kind mate ☺️ Fantastic video!
He's not wrong, man. Watching your right hand is both frustrating and inspiring :-)
It's the feel. By the way, check Chris with Dan and Mick on That Pedal Show and you'll see astonishing playing and, as usual, inspiring discussion of tone. That Chris is a genuinely great dude also shines through as well. Thanks, Chris.
This man is living proof that gear does not affect tone he could make a yard stick and yarn sound amazing. Its in your hands. He makes every piece of gear sound amazing watch the vids. From squires to gibsons absolutely amazing. I practice everyday in hopes of half this mans talent. With a little jimmy and stevie and i will be happy. I stopped changing gear and concentrated getting out of bad habits. Best advise i give now is YOUR TONE COMES FROM LOTS OF PRACTICE NEVER GIVE UP KEEP PLAYING. THANK YOU SIR. GREAT VID EXCELLENT PLAYING
I need a Pete and Chris Buck jam.
that would be orgasmic !
Plus Ariel ;)
I'll be hanging with Pete and Chris next weekend- excited to see them Jam together.
J Bolo Sounds good to me 👌🏻
great idea!!!
Danish Pete plays with his soul instead of his hands. Incredible to watch. #goals
All I'm saying is, every time I watch Danish Pete, I end up picking up my guitar after. Thanks Pete!
I could be wrong...I think you must have some US southern soul in you. It is a pleasure to watch "and " hear your playing. Kudos young man. You are an inspiration
"Tone is in the fingertips" I never knew what this meant until I watched Danish Pete demonstrate every guitar and pedal and amp under the sun but still have that deft touch.

Jeez us Pete, that first two minutes, wow. Lay a Van Morrison-esque vocal over that and it's instant legend.
Naturally talented,humble and so very generous. We need more like you. Cheers fella.
Great tips! I can keep watching your videos all day long. You make it seem so simple lol. Thank you, I got something else to practice. 🎸🎸🎸
You're welcome! You may underestimate your fan base Pete. We truly are inspired by said vibrato, melody, and dynamics in your playing. You've got some cool licks to back it all up, plenty of blues and harmonic styles intertwine from your knowledge base. Always great to watch you play.
That’s one hell of a way to start your cool and rainy Sunday morning. Great feel.

So refreshing to hear a guitar dem, and solo, that's not just all distortion or blues.
Thanks Peter for any guitar instruction(s) you can share with the rest of us!!
Thank you Pete, you're an amazing player, a melodic dream...
Vibrato is like oxygen; you can’t live without it for very long
Already 200 comments - mostly complementary and well deserved ... - instead of just complimenting you will seek out your published music and purchase it - you are a great musician and a great human being for sharing your tips in such a lovely way
Thanks so much Pete for helping get all this stuff inside of me get out.every time I sit down with these videos of yours,a bit more surfaces every time.I so dig the attack of your lessons and the approach you use.I'm almost 60 and come from an Ohio farmers town and am filled with the blues inside.and with your insipration,more and more shows all the time.thank you so much for being a mentor of music to me.your style and experience is second to none in my book and you take your time to help teach others to play.what an extraordinary muscisian!

Or as John Mayer said, if you come out screaming, you've ended your solo.
@@colaboytje very true, but of course context is king.
Oisin McPhillips there is a really good live recording of Peter green with the bluesbreakers playing Stormy Monday which is a great example of that.
Thank you Sensai
It´s probably the biggest lesson I learnded from John Mayer. I see it all the time, that people play with their ego rather than with their heart.
the singing part was a great tip, that changes everything finding melody. Thanks Pete!
Great tips!
...and that Duesenberg sounds stellar.
Beautiful man! Thanks
This guy is becoming one of my favorite players
Love to hear you play Pete. For me you are the star player of Andertons. I try to learn from you but know I'll never be as good.
Thanks for the help, always find myself over playing. Always have to remind myself that sometimes less is more.
Only recently discovered Pete via the Anderton’s channel.....omg what a stellar guitarist, love the melodic phrases and awesome touch. Has the touch and feel of another Pete - Peter Green no less and I can’t think of a higher compliment to pay!

This brings back memories of when I had lessons on vibrato, I remember him saying it was like I was playing a violin. Great video Pete, i love the chord progressions you come up with, very inspirational.
Pete, I love your guitar playing for a long time, but today I fell in love with Duesenberg Paloma. Thank you very much :)
9:56 is where he start breathing the blues! 😍😍😍 Thank you so much Pete! Lovely lesson!
Nice time Pete cuts through without drowning everything else and those little windows you leave are great
Thanks you
Your Chris Buck reference is wonderful Peter.
Pete, you are fast becoming one of my favorite players. I love playing along with you in these jams and getting inspired by your lines and meoldies.
Tip #3 is everything!! It gives your playing some soul.
Always admire your playing, Pete! Great work!
Great great video! I'm blessed to of had my grandad teach me these techniques when I was younger. This video is top class :) very direct and chilled out.
Great video as always. Bon Jovi Lie to Me is a great example of a melodic solo. One of my favs!
Thanks pete for pulling me out of my little rut I've been in.these simple things from the best(my favorite guitarist of all times)guitarist makes me sound like a real winner in my home studio in Ohio.you play each note with so much meaning its ridiculous!the way you teach me to slide from note to note using vibrato and the soulful ways you show how not to play the same licks over and over again is just incredible!

Wow! World class tuition...that's easy to understand....& makes a big difference really quickly. Thank you!!
Thanks Pete - your one of the best at getting the nuts and bolts across, so glad to have subscribed to your channel
No show.....just pure feeling......extraordinary.....saludos desde México
Thanks pete, just watching you playing helps my guitar playing become more melodic, you have some of the most tastiest licks, I could listen to you play all day
Your guitar playing is everything I strive to play like.Such melody and feel. So natural. Thanks for the videos, Pete.
Man what is this chord progression? Simply beautiful!!!!!
I really enjoy these little sessions Pete. I admire your skills and your style of playing. I love the Tele also. I hope you continue with these. They are very educational for me. Thank you for sharing your talents. Tell the Captain Hi
Every time I watch one of your videos I start out thinking, man, this guy is too advanced for me to get much out of this. And then I end up getting a lot out of it anyway!
Good lesson. Very important tips. I add vibrato in circles as 4th type of vibrato, a combination of side by side and up and down.
Wonderful tutorial Many Thanks Pete as a piano /keys player and professional teacher I love it when guitarists value melody and touch , great to encourage that hybrid finger and pick alternation techniques.
My first time seeing you on UA-cam. I've spent more and more time on UA-cam lately learning and more often than not it's lessons from guys like you. (A compliment) I've been playing for nearly 40 years and until about 10 years ago I concentrated on shredding. Now that I've "grown up", I've discovered there's so much more to learn. I've always been a fan of the blues, jazz and fusion but avoided jazz for years. Now that playing melodically is so important to me, teachers like you are so valuable to me. I'll subscribe to your page, go through your lessons and look forward to new ones. Thank you, this lesson was so valuable to me.
OMG!! I cant stop listening to you ♥️♥️♥️
Thank you for a fabulous video, Pete. A little master class in breaking out of the mundane rut. The playing is so soulful. An inspiration in every sense of the word.
I really enjoyed your teaching style. I felt like I was in therapy having a breakthrough! Nice job!
Cheers from the USA. Love your playing. You responsible for me buying a Duesey lol. Keep it up!
So.. I came to this video because I was so amazed by the solo you played while doing a shoot out for Andertons (16:02- The Ultimate Modelling Amp Shootout) and I am not sure if I should laugh, or cry, because it was a darn shoot out video, and yet it was 20 seconds of musical brilliance. It's like finding poetry in a bubble gum commercial... lol Anyways, you sound amazing, and I'm hoping to learn from you by watching more of your jazzy sounds!
Jesus this is the best intro to a video I've ever seen/heard
grow up
In a whirlwind of new guitar lust, I recently discovered the Andertons shows and consequently the one and only Danish Pete! Beautiful playing Sir and great tips, you have inspired me to dust off the old LP and play for hours :-)
There was a time, not too long ago, when I would strictly watch Rob en Rabea ripping it out on Andertons, and I would advocate the shredz everytime.
That is, until I heard Pete playing... Out of this world! Pete can play the same note 20 times in a row and would still sound like heaven. Such an amazing feel
for music, phrasing, just an amazing player to watch and hear! @Pete seriously, make a solo album and I'll buy it in a snap!
Just subscribed a few days ago, but I absolutely love you and Lee's videos as well as your own. The comedic play between you and Lee is fun to watch and I'm truly impressed with your talent. I lament not having nice long fingers to reach the chord shapes you are able to achieve. Thanks for this great lesson, especially the ideas about being more melodic and dynamic. Be well and keep making great videos Danish Pete!
Chris Buck is my favorite! Such emotional playing!!
Danish Pete is pretty good too ; ) nice video Pete
Thanks for this Pete, very generous of you to use your talent this way. Interesting seeing the way you go between major and pentatonic scales, would love to see more vids on this.
Excellent video Pete, good stuff coming out of you and Rob bouncing ideas off each other. Two gentlemen with different styles and really putting good information into the hands of the rest of us through excellent demonstration. May you have continued success sir. As always thank you for your gracious efforts.
Peter, as always thank you for sharing such awesome tips. Great to see you with the Captain, and on TPS. That clip of you taking the solo in front of 10's of thousands of people was awesome. I hope you continue to share your skills and wish you continued success. Cheers!
Great tips, wonderful touch, beautiful playing. Good on you, Pete, thank you for this fine video!
As an old school player, I began in '71, I follow the chords and focus on being melodic as opposed to scale driven shred, but of course a lot depends on what you are playing, Pete is definitely an old school player :)
What an amazing sound Pete, beautiful playing 👍
Fantastic Pete. Would love some more of these tips please.
You made me want to pick up again my dusty Jag and start learning seriously.
Thank you so much Pete!
Great tone man, really cool guitar too, thanks!
Putting the first 2 minutes on endless repeat!
That singing tip from Ariel was genius! 👏🏿
Ill say, I`ve experimented with all these ideas, but never thought of them like one skill set before. So very inspiring and a great new reaason to pick up my guitar! Awesome vid!
About the vibrato: I think every players has it's own vibrato signature. If you listen to Mark Knopfler, his vibrato is so recognisable. It's pretty fast most of the time, even in slow songs. He does change tempo, but it's so recognisable. Just like BB king. That's mainly how I know it's BB playing (very fast and deep).
Always Loved your playing pete. Still waiting for a chilled Jazzy/Mayer esque LP from you :)
Pete you are one the most inspiring guitarist I have ever had the pleasure to listen to, thanks so much for sharing your gift with us.
A good vibrato technique is essential. I think I use too much sometimes. You nailed it with trying to not end your lick with vibrato. It is really tough to let a note sustain without wiggling it a bit. Thanks Pete, keep up the great work!
Enjoy your guitar playing & informative videos. Cheers from NYC.
I’m still learning how to really play guitar. Being a bassist at heart, I never wanted to be the soloist. Now, I’m in an acoustic trio (expanding into some electric) and am concerned about soloing, and tone because I’ll never be a fast player. I use my ear a TON! 5-watt amp, SM57, a few pedals for some different colors, and I think I can be pleasing to our audience’s ears. Thanks for this, Pete.
Awesome Pete, love your tone and playing!
Love these tips PETE, you’ve told me a lot here, more like this please. Personally the big point you’ve made to me here is slow down think take your time.
Wanted to let you know that The Dane is an awesome pedal. Has great sounds and is crazy dynamic. Absolutely love it!! So ya know you have a signed pedal make it to Oklahoma in the US. Loved the message on the back. Good luck to you, I always look forward to your videos..
Totally agree with your assessment of The Dane. Now I know that here are at least 2 signed pedals in Oklahoma.
Hey Pete you need to tell everyone about your patreon. I didn't even realise you had one untill I checked the description of this vid
Something very interesting that he missed was breathing and I've noticed this in my own playing. Breathe with the music, he does it at about 10:00 & you can hear him using timed breaths. I only recently realised I did this and it helps get 'in the zone' so to speak & feel the music more
My like pushed the video over 1k 😀. Love me some Pete, beautiful playing sir.
Well done, man! That's awesome. I sometimes try to reply your chords and loop them. They are awesome
My god. I love Pete’s playing and that tone is incredible
Great 3 tips, and awesome to hear Chris buck mentioned. A fantastic guitarist.
Don't forget he is playing live in London Hoxton Square this Friday 21 Sept, about £10 a ticket. Anyone local to London should go and check it out!
Nice one! Another good way to practice your Vibrato and get a good feel for it, is to practice it with a metronome. Maybe 8th notes "down and down and.."
Thank you for the nice lesson. No need for a “sorry”
Thanks!
From NYC ... Danish Pete, you’re a beast!
11:06 Welcome :D
Awesome stuff Pete!
After watching your visit to That Pedal Show I subscribed and got on the Dane wait list. Looking forward to more from you. You and Lari Basilio should collaborate- you both have melodic styles. Awesome.
One of your best, Pete!
