I did the rookie mistake of watching this right before bed time. Adulting is hard when you want to pull out the guitar at 10pm and you have family obligations before the sun comes up.
Awesome video as always, thank you, Rusty!
I have done that myself! Some fun stuff here! But I hope you got enough sleep😂 I always appreciate your feedback Jason! Enjoy your Sunday🙏
As a citizen of the real world, I really appreciate your passion for useful advice. Thank you Rusty 😊
Ah! Thanks a lot Tim! I appreciate your comment and enjoy your weekend ✌️
Rusty, it’s no secret, I am crazy about you. I show up weekly just like you were teaching me in person. I am not trying to be as good as you, I haven’t enough time left on this planet. But the joys of being able to play just a bit gives me a joy I can not describe.
Hey Cathy, thanks so much for your continued support of my channel! Let’s keep working on this stuff together. The older I get the more I love playing the guitar 🎸 And I know you do also. Enjoy your weekend Cathy 👍
I don’t know how you make it look so easy! The simplest and best advice, just practice those double stops up and down… the Bm penta will come naturally. Again, can’t thank you enough for improving my guitar playing and knowledge! 🎉❤
It sounds like you’re moving forward. That’s exciting! I’m glad I can be a part of it. Thanks buddy.👍
This is the best lesson to understand how to practice small parts of chords strumming together or picking separately the whole length of the fretboard. Thank you!
I’m glad to hear it! Fun stuff here! I hope you have a rockin weekend👍
Another fretboard opener! Thanks Rusty 🙏
Yes, it is! We all need to make new connections on the fretboard. Thanks for checking out the video.👍
Love your lessons. I have been playing for 40 plus years mostly as a closet pick. Your lessons fill in so many gaps.
This and the previous video you did should really help to keep me focused. It brings my ability to add musical articulation to a new level.
Thanks
God Bless
I’m glad you’re getting something from my videos! Thanks so much for the feedback Robert! Enjoy your weekend😎
Thank you very much!
You’re welcome! Thanks a lot for checking out the video👍
i always played rhythm with a slight touch of leads or pinch. this is where im lackin for sure and where lessons come in real handy like these. there was no internet and hard for a ghetto punk to find lessons. i feel like i owe you something i crammed more in a week than i ever knew in my life lol
That’s awesome! It sounds like you’re moving forward! Thanks a lot for checking out my lessons👍
I feel like Ive known you for years even though weve never met. I guess your sincerity sets you apart from the rest, and your lessons are so informative. Thank you for your gift of music.
That’s kind of you to say my friend! Thanks so much for supporting my channel! Catch you later 🤛
Thanks!
Thanks so much, Stephen! I appreciate you supporting my channel this way! Means a lot. Let me know if you have any questions. Talk to you later and have a great weekend.👍
Great lesson, Rusty! Sounds fantastic.🔥🎸 Thumbs up. Happy Sunday!😊✌❤
Thanks a lot Colourful Girl! Good to hear from you and have a awesome weekend❤️
Very handy as I hear many tunes in this lesson in my old brain. Hearing: "Blue Jean Blues"...spaghetti western guitar...and even "Stray Cat Strut". I agree with the "shape" concept. Wish I had more time and patience to learn more theory...and know behind what I'm playing. Even hearing Tesla..."Love Will Find a Way" intro! Once again, this session keeps my wheels moving to keep from getting stuck in a playing rut. Thanks 2:17 !Brother
Hey Stephen, all great tunes here! It sounds like you’re moving forward! Thanks a lot for checking out the video 👍
I freaking love this channel
Right on! I’m really glad to hear that! Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment✌️

Really good stuff. Thanks for posting.
Yes, it is! Thanks a lot for checking out the lesson👍
Cool lesson Rusty, i enjoy all these chords.thanks and hope you have a wonderful super great day.😀
Thanks a lot, Eddie! I appreciate the comment👍
@@rustysguitar1 just to let you know Ive been watching your vids.just have not commented latey.lol but i always hit that like button.
Playing around with this and since.
D major is B minors friend lol ive been also adding in some D chords just messin around..
I like going from the double stops on the d and g then jump right down to the e snd b ones.its fun just playing around with everything.see sometimes ill just hit the like, then other times i wont shut up lol .
Thanks for continuing on that chord progression Rusty. 🫶
Right on! One of the best backing tracks ever. Thanks so much for the comment.✌️
Hi Rusty, appreciate your time putting these lessons on UA-cam. I follow your worship channel as well.
I noticed the pattern changes on the G chord, compared to the other major chord pattern. Why is that? Possibly because it’s the 5th of the key and it needs to be a 7th? (Just a guess).
Thanks again.
Hey Butch, the simple answer is you have to follow the chords. From the G chord (double stop) you have to go to the A chord (double stop) because it’s in the harmony of the chord progression. I’m always thinking about double stops as small pieces of chords. Thanks for checking out the video my friend 👍
very good lesson.
Thanks a lot Drew ✌️
Superb Rusty! Some great playing there & what I like is that you always make it sound within my reach - I can't wait to pick up the guitar (as I usually watch these the first time while 'on the go') A few Hank Marvin tones in there with the whammy bar as well. I like the fact that we're not bogged down with theory - you're more of a working guitarist, which you don't get with the usual teacher or book. Excellent!
Hey Pete, i’m glad to hear that basically I use the Pentatonic scale for structure. Then adding triads, double stops, and the sound of modes to that Pentatonic scale. Not deep theory, but it gets the job done. I appreciate your comment and have a great Sunday.🙏
You the man! This is brilliant Rusty, I love experimenting with different ideas and every week, you deliver.
As the Mrs wants to take me out for my birthday, I’ll have a good look at this later and let you know how I get on. Cheers buddy and have a great weekend 👍🏻🏴🎸
Thanks Dave! I hope you have a Happy Birthday mate!!! It’s always good to hear from you! Cheers 👍🤛🎸
Thanks Rusty, May the 4th be with you 🎸
Hi Rusty, are you able to explain why the pattern is not the same for the A and G chord? I’m confused. Thanks!
@luizvelazquez1113 basically we are following the chords with the double stops. After G major you would go to A major. These double stops are all in the B minor scale. Thanks for checking out the video.👍
@@rustysguitar1 got it! I thought the you had to hit the double stops within each major chord and not going off the b minor scale. Thank you Rusty for the response and clarification! Keep on Rockn!
Amazing practical application lesson. I’m familiar with harmonizing a key and double but couldn’t string the parts together. You have many many good lessons for me this separates you from the rest. Great lesson kudos
I’m glad you got something out of the lesson Greg! Thank you for the kind comment! Have a great weekend👍
Excellent lesson my friend, learning by using music examples y really the way I like it, have a nice weekend Rusty!
I’m glad you’re getting something from these lessons Rafa! I hope you have a great weekend also👍👍
Thank you for sharing! Great lesson on double stops as a bridge between rhythm and lead. Excited to try these concepts out because they sound super good. 😊
Cool! Thanks for checking out the video! Catch you later👍
Great job as always mr Rusty love the dbl stops makes the playing so much more lively , finally got my EVH MIJ so really enjoying lesson have a great weekend brother
Thanks Arty! I’m glad you had fun with it. I hope you have a great rest of your weekend also.👍
Amazing one
Thanks a lot, bro😎
Awesome ❤😊
Thanks a lot for checking out the video 👍
Well done! Great exercise/demo!
I think the tempo you've chosen suggests Hotel California, but if you pick the chord progression, the Ventures' Walk Don't Run... Thanks again!!
Thanks a lot Jeffrey! I do love this track. It’s fun to improvise over. I appreciate the comment bud 🤛
Rusty for Bm I see the first double stop as the 1 and b3, the third is the 5 and b3, but the second is the 2 and the 4 (or an A double stop), so it acts as a bridge to the other two? Sounds good!
Thanks Esteban! Another fun way to connect the fretboard! Later, buddy👍
Hi Rusty! I haven't been around so much lately, and the reason for that is -- because your lessons WORKED. I'm not packing stadiums or anything, but I can't tell you how satisfied I am with my progress.
And I picked the best time to drop back in, because this lesson is terrific! It uses my favorite chord progression, my favorite chord type (I'm a sucker for the double stop), and "my" #2 Best Instructor on UA-cam (behind only that Jules kid from England -- anyonecanplayguitar I think)!
Now on to my question: when you're doing the double-stops, it looks like a combination of major- and minor- thirds when you're changing the distance between either one to two frets. How are we to know which to use, and where?
Is that something that's relative to the CHORD being played, or is it just the B-minor scale being played along the "root" string? 🤔
Good to hear from you Crash! It’s all about the chord tones. It’s good to start double stops and end them with the chord tones. For the B minor starting with the B and D notes. And then moving up to the D and F# notes. But when I’m improvising, I’m not thinking of any of that. I’m thinking about the little double stop shape and where the next place is that I can slide to. But you can harmonize all of these double stops with the B minor scale. Thanks a lot for checking in and must talk soon.👍
Double stops means … rock n roll , Johnny B Goode stuff ., giving it more substance to a solo ., you can do this also to embellish a lead , what you do here .. in a minor key .. good tutorial
Right on John! Thanks a lot for checking out the video👍
👍👍
Thanks for watching!👍
Every time you get that Strat out I really admire it. Love the transparent burst with the maple neck. Is it a custom shop?
I do love that Guitar! I honestly don’t know the history because I bought it used. I just know that it sounds good and plays good and looks good!!! Thanks Ben👍
Great stuff! But why is the G walk up shapes different from A and Fsharp shapes?
Basically, you are following the chords in the progression with the double stops. From the G cord, the next chord in the progression is A major. That’s why the double stops change over the G chord. Basically you were following the courts with the double stops. Thanks for checking out the video.👍
Thanks for showing us these interesting tips. Your effort is appreciated. I have several guitars but really like the color scheme pattern of your strat. I really want to get that same fender. Did you get that from Sweetwater or GC ? Thanks
Thanks for checking out the video! I bought the Guitar used. So I don’t really know much about it. I just know it looks good and sounds good and plays good. Have a great weekend.👍
Very good Rusty. You make it look so easy 🎸🎸
I appreciate that, Tony! Thanks so much👍
Hi Rusty . ❤️
Hey John, thanks for watching👍
Thanks tutorials guitar happy day
Thanks for checking out the video👍
Fantastic Rusty !!!
Thanks a lot, Daniel👍
Hi Rusty - Thank you for the amazing lesson. Are you able to explain why the pattern isnt the same for the A Major Barre Chord as it is for the G Major Chord?
Hey Andrew, I showed three double stops for each chord. The first and third one contain notes that are in the chord. The second double stop is the one that sometimes will change depending on the chord progression. Basically the double stops are following the chords being played in the progression. Thanks a lot for checking out the video.👍
Great stuff as always. How do I get the backing track link please?
Sorry Rusty. Found the backing track. Melodic music is my favourite.
I did say it in the video, but the link is in the written description. Just push the word “MORE” that is underneath the video title. Happy jamming ✌️
@johndavidson1143 no problem! I’m glad you found it! Thank you for all your support to my channel👍
Hey rusty im loving your double stops lessons however im getting confused lol is there a good order in which i follow these lessons ie 1, 2, 3 snd so on, thanks
Hey Roger, The order in which you learn is really a preference for the player. All of my lessons are really geared for someone to be a better improviser. Not in any real order. Think about some of the top things that you wanna learn and then really focus on those. With my lessons or any guitar lessons related to those topics. It is easy to get confused because there’s so much information out there. That’s for sure! I really appreciate you taking the time to watch my lessons, Bob! Thanks so much👍
I’ve been playing that like a D shape without the E, also the C shape, across the board, does that make any sense or sound right, because I don’t know exactly why it works for me
That’s a common way to use the D shape. The rule is if it sounds good play it. Thanks a lot for checking out the video.👍
@@rustysguitar1 Idk, but I also play those shapes in inverted positions, but only within certain frets, probably all the chords, but really I don’t know what I’m doing theory wise, I can only listen to what sounds good
On a more personal level, every video you do is a lightbulb moment for me, and then I’m inspired to expand and experiment on your ideas and concepts
Thank you Rusty, I really do appreciate your ability to teach intermediate players like us .. cheers pal 🍻
Thanks for this. What double stops would you use in the key of G
That answer would have to be another lesson. But the double stops can be built using the chords in any progression. In the key of G a similar progression would be Em-D-C-B7. Thanks for checking out the video. 👍
Great stuff Rusty!
Question: why is sequence Gmaj 5/4 7/6 9/7 and not 5/4 7/5 9/7. ? Thx
Hey John, because you play 7/5 on the D and G strings that would give the A minor sound. We are using A major in this progression. It’s always good to follow the chords. If you try playing the A minor sound it does not sound good. Thanks so much for checking out the video.
Hi Rusty, what is the sequence for G maj? Should it not be 5/4,7/5 9/7 the same pattern as for Amaj. If it was 7/6 then the 6 would be C# which is not in the key of Gmaj.
As I am an old stickler for detail I would like to know the answer.
To be sure, I so enjoy your lessons and look forward to seeing your new ones. You have helped me immensely in my playing and my understanding guitar. Cheers
Btw, I am 81 yrs old
The sequence in the video is B minor. So the C# is the correct note. If the progression was in G major, it would be a whole different set of double stops. Basically, in this video, we are following the four different chords. Thanks John
@@rustysguitar1 Thx,now I understand
😁👍
Thanks a lot WJ✌️
Do you have tabs on this?
Sorry I don’t use tabs. I believe you will become a good guitarist faster without them. Using your ear and watching the teacher and techniques will move you forward quicker. Thanks for checking out my lessons 👍
I fail to see the pattern.
Using 2 double stop shapes, over each chord. Following the chords.
Great lesson again. The patterns are different on the A and G chords for double stops on the third and fourth strings. Thought they’d be the same. Is one using major scale and the other mixolydian? Wish you could have shown all of the triads on the screen.
Thanks for checking out the video. The pattern changes because the chords change. As you play double stops from the G chord, the next chord in the progression is A major. So the pattern has to change on the G chord to sound right. Catch you later.
@@rustysguitar1 thanks but not really understanding why.
From the comments it looks like some of us don’t fully understand what pattern of double stops to play and when. Why the fingering is different. Is it possible to do more double stop lessons with tabs and help us beginners?
@@scoobydoo4087 The short answer is you have to follow the chords in the progression. I was just demonstrating what sounds good over a B minor progression.
@@rustysguitar1 thanks Rusty but I still don’t understand why the different fingerings. So I won’t be able to apply this lesson to another chord progression. I don’t know how the chord progression changes things. Don’t think these are all harmonized thirds.
