  • Ok, lesson time. We did used the backing track called "smoothie Time on our video on the new Yamaha THR-2 amps and you guys asked about it, so here you go. Hope you like it.
    I am using the Victory DP40 a boss RC3 Looper and a Keeley Super Phat Mod Overdrive.
    You can buy the backing tracks from www.mrpeterhonore.com or www.bandcamp.com
    Please enjoy and thank you all for the support.

      Pete's style is very good for learning and teaching imho. Too many new guitarists start out trying to learn blues style solo guitar riffs and licks and never really become musical or inclusive and get disillusioned with not having any "range" to their playing.

  • @markworley8971
    @markworley8971 4 роки тому +29

    It's all about the phrasing. Because Pete's phrasing is so musical, he could get away with (almost) playing any note, and as long as it moves to a good note, it will sound great. It's like Robben Ford... Most of what he plays is pentatonic, with some tasty diminished/altered scale thrown in. But it's his phrasing that makes it sublime. I put Pete and Robben in a similar category, which is a big compliment to both of them. If you listen to other well know UA-camrs, you will immediately hear the difference. It's all about the groove and the phrasing. It has to feel good to be good.
    Oh, and I forgot to mention... The tone! Lovely edge of breakup, neck tele pickup, a little reverb. Ah! Breaks up when hit hard but clean when less attack. Magnificent!

    • @alfgwahigain5544
      @alfgwahigain5544 4 роки тому +3

      Phrasing! We, as guitarists need to remember to take a break from note-slinging every once in a while. Pete has this down. His playing is top notch and melodic, but yeah - his phrasing is killer.

    Pete, you are the man. This exactly what I was hoping for. Thank you for listening to your audience and delivering what I believe are the best guitar lessons/insights available. You know what- I think you could combine pedal/gear demo into these type of lesson and have the ultimate content. You kind of did that when you mentioned what pedal you were using, but feel free to show some settings or adjustments to the pedal and you have yourself an amazing gear demo/guitar lesson combo. I will watch this video over and over, and I know I'm not alone. Bravo.
