    Mr Guthrie, that opening intro of those big soulful interval chords are really tasty. The way you can lace all kinds of musical influences into a single passage is truly amazing. And then you put the cherry on top by playing funk. My greatest fear if i am honest is i will run out of life before i can ever get to play that musical and that fluidly. And please...keep just "throwing stuff out there".

    You are an inspiration, your blend of humbleness and musicality is unique. You give freely and I'm just one of thousands out there that appreciate what you are doing. I'm a happy retiree hack guitarist that will never have the speed of thought and hand to play like you Guthrie. However, every video I come away with at least 1 or 2 things that I can incorporate into my playing. Your gift to guitarists is special.

    I used to come watch you play as a 14 year old boy at Roberts all the way back in 2002ish? You were this brand new guy in Nashville with Don Kelley and my cousin Joel and I would come and just drool over your solos. Ghost riders always gave me chills. I appreciate you keeping the music coming. I'm proud to have known you then - and just as inspired by your playing today!!

    Some very very pretty stuff you started with :-) You mentioned you like seeing behind the scenes stuff- " how thing are made". Do you like documentary's for example -a music producer and maybe one of the musicians will sit down at the mixer board and dissect an Album or songs? personally I just love it. McCartney has a new one called 3-2-1. I remember one of the first ones I saw was about the making of the Goodbye yellow Brick road album......they isolated Elton's voice along with the acoustic guitar parts for the song - Candle in the Wind ( original recording) -Elton's Voice was amazing....or the documentary about Electric Ladyland and Assorted love song Derick and the dominoes.... I just love it when they isolate tracks and talk about how the songs were recorded. :-)

    Enjoy your videos, as always! I notice you consistently have great tone and are always well intonated. Would it be possible to share your approach to set up, e.g. action, intonation, string sizes, etc. Nothing is more frustrating than not having the sound you want to hear. Do you have preferences as to guitar type?

    The 3rd above the octave is considered a 10th chord. Still a simple triad, but arranged in a way to give that melody note something a little different than the typical 5th or octave.

    • @BritBluesMan
      @BritBluesMan 3 роки тому +1

      Wouldn't you expect a 10th chord to also include the lower 3rd, 5th, and probably 7th? These are just open-voiced triads, or spread-voiced triads.

    • @EarthAltar
      @EarthAltar 3 роки тому +1

      @@BritBluesMan It can, but it's not necessary. As long as there's a root and a 3rd above the octave it's a 10th chord. Whatever you want to put in the sandwich is your choice. Or you can just eat the bread.
