  • some people are such assholes..... its a beginers video...he is helping newbees..lighten up people....jeez

  • No Wah Wah pedal = shit video

  • by the way just to clarrify........ he's playing it a fret down than it's supposed to be because, the original song is a step down, this video IS OBVIOUSLY FOR FUCKING BEGGINERS YOU RETARDS XD so he didn't want to explain tunings just yet, oh and while im at it if you're all so fucking good at guitar, why are you watching a begginer video on youtube? fuckign sad asses get yourselves over to a tab website instead of trolling this guy your whole life.

  • OMG this guy sucks rhino cock!!!!!

  • take a good look boys and girls.... if you sound like this momo when your playing the intro riff to voodoo child (slight return), then your doing it WRONG..... this tit has less business teaching guitar then he would bodybuilding!!!!

  • I hope you learn it someday lol

  • the hiring criteria to act as an "expert" in the "expertvillage" is, that you have to be retarded, totally. Thats the reason why this guy rape Jimi heritage with a high gain SG instead of a crunchy strat. Does he show us highway to hell? Maybe there we see the strat. Or a tele then?

  • he needs a different sound effect on the guitar cause everything i've heard sounds nothing like the real songs.

  • @baugusgatlin No matter how hard you try, there isn't a single person on Earth that can play anything by Jimi Hendrix besides Jimi Hendrix. You can try but it's never right.

  • @TheSwanMusic thats not what i meant but ok.

  • dude you totally forgot hte drugs.... you CAN'T ( and must not ) play hendrix without the drugs

  • @cerpintaxtmario yes u can....

  • Comment removed

  • @bluesdog53 it is in e-flat, you tune down half a step on all strings... ´<.<

  • now do this song with an upside-down lefty strat (since you are right handed)

  • this guy dont know play .. WTF

  • omg!!!! he messed up at 1:36!!!

  • @BiggBiteProductions lol shows how much time and dedication they put into their videos

  • It's funny how wrong he is

  • @Squweesh tell me how this is wrong

  • @ImSimpleButCrazy you arnt suppose to slide into it you do a hammer on from 7 to 9 and then on the d you dont slide and you hammer on and then you move down a fret also there is an extra note on the A string. Yo just check out how SRV did it, should clear up a few things but yeah glad i could help

  • @Squweesh if you know hendrix, you can never copy him. that's why in live versions are always different. Everything is free-roam when you're playing his songs. Nevermind SRV, he does hendrix covers, so he gets to change it up a little bit. look, malmsteen plays it on the 12th fret, is that wrong to you? and he adds a bit of hammer-ons and pull-offs along with that too. hope i could help you understand where i'm tryna get to.

  • lol, agreed, expertvillage fuckin sucks when it comes to guitar instruction. Justin Sandercoe is the man for online guitar lessons.

  • does he know its tuned down a half step?

  • @TheWho0180 that's why he's playing it on the 6th, not the 7th.

  • @ImSimpleButCrazy didnt notice

  • @ImSimpleButCrazy but wouldnt it be easier just to tune down a half step cuz in some riffs there is open notes

  • @TheWho0180 you're correct on that but, this video was meant to be for beginners. you really think beginners would actually go play until the verses?

  • @ImSimpleButCrazy what u mean until the verses?

  • LMAO

  • well, at least he has nice hair :) hehe

  • @BrattyLori wronge his hair looklike pubic hair

  • he should learn it and learn it well...

  • @nextevh192837 so true

  • i agree with ...mrfenderstrat7!!!!

  • buddy you need to work on your vibratel (and i have to work on my spelling)

  • LOL

  • where the hell is the rest of it? lol i can already learn that first part by ear, damn tisk tisk

  • hm so he had 2 strats and chose to play Hendrix  whit SG.. funny little man ^^

  • pull the strat down from the wall already! jeez!

  • 483 ppl missclicked...

  • fail... i got a better way to play it...

  • @MultiSkilled17 if u do make a video and send it too me. i didnt think this sounded right either

  • Boy! everyone's a critic!!! Harsh. I'm sure someone out there must be benefiting from this. After all, the guy's got 300,000 hits.

  • Man these vids are shit. Marty Schwartz FTW !!! go see him if u wanna learn how to play stuff

  • @Deathstar11978

    OR you could learn to play by ear.

  • how many people added the*tiss* soundof the drum lmao

  • you're not making a good tutorial if you have to excuse yourself every 3 notes...

  • 1:44 1:44 ogasegolograma!

  • this guy is lame..

  • Agreed

  • What i dislike, is that his lessons are covering only a portion thats less than a third of an entire song, that i am sure some are ACHING to learn all of.

  • Wrong!!!!!!

    Jimi Hendrix played this song tuned down a half-step!

  • the notes are not correctly, this is a very simple version to play -.-

    this song played right is mooore cool

  • Dont try... No one plays like hendrix.. 

  • @TheMrCurtas

    this man speaks truth!

  • Although Jimi did play a SG from time to time... early stuff mainly, this is not the right riff... first off, Jimi was a lefty that play a righty strat, that means the stings were turned backwards to him. So unless you try to emulate those fretboard positions, then don't! Also, he didn't use any kind of a fuzz box or in-amp effect other than a Wah Wah... he relied on his Marshalls to get him where he wanted to go live and in-studio!

  • @JEV1A Yes, he was left handed and he did play a righty strat, but he inverted the strings so they were in the right order (high E as the first and low E as the 6th). You can tell by watching any live video of him playing (compare the high and low notes, with the position of his right hand). Correct me if I'm wrong.

  • @JEV1A Yes Jimi played righty guitars left handed, but he would string his guitars backwards also, so that the strings 'looked' right to him. There's no way he could play those chords and riffs with backwards strings. And it's well documented that Jimi used Fuzz Faces and Octavia fuzzes along with his wah wah both live AND in the studio. Not to mention the Uni-Vibe. These fuzz boxes are part of Jimi's signature sound.

  • 0:03

    thats what he said

  • the intro was my problem but yet i can play it xD

  • You missed a few notes there bro'.  I guess you would only realize that after listening to Voodoo Chile thousands of times.

  • haha when i first started guitar i used these videos, now 2 years later, i came back and realised how HIT this guy is! The song is tuned down a half step and starts on the 7th fret on the g! Playing this way is ok just for the intro but u cant play the chorded riff in this tuning...idiot!

  • @Glew1992 So even though he's not correct, he was good enough for you to learn how to play and now 2 years later he's an idiot?!! Why don't you just leave a comment saying thank you for getting me started in playing guitar and leave it at that you ungrateful little prick!

  • @dokokai Insult all the other guys on here who said this guy sucks and then I'll reply to your comment properly

  • @Glew1992 You are a moron. You missed my whole point. None of the other commentors said they used this to learn from then went out of their way to come back here to complain & insult this guy. True he's wrong with how he's teaching it but if it was enough to help you get started then just show your appreciation & move on from there. You don't have to come back & criticize him about it. You're part of what's wrong with young people today. Smart ass punks!

  • @Glew1992 hahaha wow your still wrong, its starts on the 9th fret on the G string

  • you suck!! u did almost nothing correctly in this video. shame on ur family!

  • you call yourself a guitar teacher dude you skipped alot of notes and it is unacceptable

  • Worst teacher ever

  • yeah it's really cool but u didn't show us the full thing

  • I'm a beginner and I enjoyed this video - but the Instructor corrects himself too often and that is slightly confusing....

  • Not correct. the guitar is tuned down a half step in the recording and the open 6th string is used quite a bit. the riff is completely wrong. look elsewhere for a lesson on this song.

  • HEY! I got your moron. set up and we'll meet in person.

  • sure would be alot of hard work not coming down to that open string.

  • What I'm wondering is if either you or this guy in the video are aware that hendrix tuned down 1/2 step to e flat.

  • The notes are easy to play, try and teach us how to play it with some wah-wah and maybe a little soul

  • it's in the wrong key!!!!

  • @cyclodelia I dunno what version of Hendrix you're listening to, but that's def. the right key, just doesn't have the wah. As for all the notes hit, he's missing a few, but I think it is because this is supposed to be for beginners.

  • @cyclodelia

    It's in the right key moron.

  • So much fun to learn riffs like this. I can't believe those haters man, but they're always aroundon Youtube.

  • @ArrJayEss

    You'd have to be a complete noob at guitar to not realise how crap this lesson is.

  • @pacrat90 Yeah I know it's not much of a lesson but I don't think it's ment that way. It's just for beginners so they can to learn great riffs in a very simple way. You don't have to trash that dude for doing this.

  • i guess pretty well, but aint as good as jimi.

  • @Hyphykid89 nobody is as good as jimi

  • too bad that doesnt really sound like it and jimi plays it up high

  • why wouldd he use an SG for a jimi hendrix song if he has 2 strats hanging on the wall?!

  • @MrFenderStrat7 Why would you wear one pair of shoes when you own more than one?

  • @MrFenderStrat7 someone may have already said this but jimi used an SG as well

  • @MrFenderStrat7 Jimi Used a SG Too

  • @VANKAYLINPRODUCTIONS This is true. He did so on the Dick Cavett Show.

  • @MrFenderStrat7 Jimi Played an SG too. he also played a flying V and telecaster.

  • @MrFenderStrat7 CHECK HIS OTHER TUTORIALS You dumbass. he used that in ALL the electric Guitar vids hes in.......

  • @TheDanielworld dont get so angry man

  • @123marijn321 True but i just cant take people like that :/

  • @MrFenderStrat7 cause jimi also played an sg

  • @MrFenderStrat7 Its about the pickups not the shape of the body.

  • @MrFenderStrat7 because the sg kicks the ass of the strato ^^

  • @MrFenderStrat7 maybe those are squier, or he just prefers the SG

  • @MrFenderStrat7 - maybe he used the SG to piss you off ? lol

  • @MrFenderStrat7 Jimi played the SG you know.

  • some notes you miss pal

  • He's playing the "Tamed" version, so rookies can feel cool.... Not even in the right tuning...

  • Yeah that's how it's played for sure ;)

  • expertvillage should be called introvillage

  • @buffalo4321able or half-*ssed village.

  • no, i dont think that is right, its not how i play it anyway, im not saying my way is right but it just sounds better to me, i dont like how plain it sounds when you play it

  • The most important thing I learn from people with tattoos is not to get a tattoo! I mean, what kind of retards are these people, right?!?!?! You're gonna PAY money, to SIT in a chair, and have somebody MARK up your skin FOREVER!?!?! What happens when you get old and your skin stretches? The ugliest thing I've EVER seen in my life was a woman whose tattoos stretched and faded. Morons. The tattoo "artists" are laughing their asses off at you.

  • @student702 why do you care? it's a fucking tattoo, it's like smoking just fuck off it's their choice.

  • @MadJack122 hey fuck you dick. ur making ur self look bad for sum thing stupid. il admit he ain't playing it right but fuck calm down.

  • he doesnt put the freakin bends in, or the muted strums AND he screws up IN SHOW. 1:35

  • @TheWatchGoesTick yeah man i laughed my ASS off when i saw/heard that :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

  • this guys lame, sorry. thats NOT how you play that. it doesnt sound like hes trying hard either. seems like he wanted to put out a video to "help" people. by the sounds of it he plays metal music all the time. no thanks. heres a tip kids, theres no shortcuts to being good at anything. learn the hard (right) way. know what i did? i bought hendrix tabs, and sat down probably for a few weeks to get it into my head, i watched him play it a billion times, and i tried to duplicate his bends. thats how

  • Comment removed

  • um...why are you using an SG?

  • expertvillage has THE WORST guitar tutorial videos EVER!!!

  • @MetallicaFan1108 they aren't that good at explaining many other things as well.

  • @skatterbraine Expert Village is just a great big fail.

  • @MetallicaFan1108 totally

  • Hey dumbass maybe you should take off the stupid ass text blocking the view

  • @poikujyhnbgvftwvsgfa you can press the little "cc" under the vid to the left of the pop out button. If its red, texts show up during the vid, if its grey/white the texts stay hidden.

  • Does he mean the intro or even the second part of the intro?? Jeez!

  • this is pretty good. i like it. for those who say it sucks, just do what you think whatd make it better, do it youreself, and stop putting comments on this video.

  • voodoo is just played on a strat.... not on a sg gibson ...

  • CAnt see shit dudeeee

  • hes got it right just needs some WAH WAH

  • The song is in E.......

  • omg just die already...

  • im a begginer and that helped me alot :D i love jimi

  • there are about 100000 videos showing how to play this riff, maybe this dude should have watched one before making this one. He's missing a ton of notes, and this isn't even an overly difficult riff.

  • Lol. Expertvillage sucks. That's not how to play Voodoo Child, that is not even how it sounds.

  • i have an idea, all you fags stop saying it is shit, if you are too good for this, then why dont YOU put up a video tutorial then? it helped me anyway so shut the fuck up

  • its jimmy hendrix...not jimi hendrix

  • @genuiN4PK no you are wrong its jimi not jimmy

  • @genuiN4PK its Jimi Hendrix...not jimmy hendrix idiot

  • it sounds wrong.

  • @KrwawyRabarbarBand Thats 'cuz hes not using a wah pedal...........

  • it helped me assholes

  • i think this is pretty helpful and to the other people just watch a diffrient video

  • You are all bunch of retards, this video is for beginners and if you are so fucking good get the fuck out of here.

  • Yeah it sorta sounds like it! Thanks for the help man but yeah just tune down a semi-tone and it'll sound exact! Thanks anyway man!

  • Yeah, this is wrong! The song was recorded in Eb. You're playing it to that key while tuned in E regular. You should be playing this one step/fret higher so that the main riff can be played normally - i.e E. If you want it chromatically correct, then you need to tune the whole guitar down one step.

  • @rebornonline you are such a faggot

  • @StraitOuttaMilton wtf shit are you talking? reborn is 100 percent correct.

  • close, but what about the drop back to 4th fret on D, then 6th on A?

  • guys in expertvillage, just a "inro" in the title so that these bitches will stfu

  • quite a good tutorial, it would be good if u do another video but for the rest of the song!

  • well i would like to know how many experts they have in expertvillage

  • @BURKYBOYRFC1 ZERO

  • Highest Hated Comments.

  • fair play u want help bt iv just started guitar and i wana learn the right riffs not ur pussy ass shite. hendrix would slap u up forthis man if he was alive and as for some of ur other vids wat can i say ur wank and not helpfull at least play the official riffs if ur doin

  • Wheres the wah????

  • @xXxGRiMxReaperxXx Wheres the feel????

  • Thats not how u play "Voodoo Chile" on guitar dude i can play it better then that

  • First step. Get a strat.

  • Look at al of those wannabee hendrixe's here.Not one of ya have a vid posted so stfu.As said before by 1 smart guy out of 100 dumbasses here:it's a beginners tut so why trying to give a guy a hard time who's purpose is to help people,sorry ass losers.And indeed what are you donig here in the first place?

    Don't let them bring you down man,keep up the good work.There are lots of people who are very glad whit people like you and do understand the beauty of internet,peace!!!

  • DUDE U FUCKING SUCK, GIMME THAT SG CAUSE U OBV HAVE NO USE FOR IT

  • How to play misheard Voodoo Child on guitar.

  • you suck

  • Dude ur just leading the newbies wrong way

  • I watched this video from the start, he said slide up its a hammer-on on the G-String 7 -9....

  • hes realy not any good

  • omg he id it so wrong xD i cant believve it

  • hes missing a few notes and its bugging me!

  • @APoniat He is not missing a few notes, he simplified the riff so beginners can learn. It bugged me for a few moments too but then I thought that he is showin an easier way so then the beginners can play and listen to the music and get Jimi Hendrix way to play it.

  • wrong tune and wrong playing...very begginers lesson...

    jsss

  • I actually purposely came on this video just to say that expertvillage sucks at teaching ANYONE, ANYTHING.

  • Redneck bandaid on right arm :D

  • Has anybody noticed that almost every single one of expertvillage's guitar videos is rated really really low.

  • What a dumbfuck !!!!!!

    hahahahahahahapussyhahahahahah­a

  • dude its a fret up....jimi tuned to half step down

  • you're all retards stop saying he's shit when these videos are for introducing people to guitar, he's not gonna fucking shred everything. and if all you guys know to play in "right" why the fuck are you watching a tutorial vid?

  • @MadJack122 I really have to agree with you. This guy is being very helpful at least for me and I can´t believe some jerks come up and criticize him...

  • @MadJack122 you´re totally right .. these guys who just are watching these videos to give bad comments they suck

    i think he does a really god job

  • @MadJack122 you gotta be taught right to play right my friend.

  • @TheWatchGoesTick to play this riff and other great riffs by great guitarist you have to have great style and feeling with your guitar, and in this case good vibrato, as i said these videos are for begginers who just want to play fun riffs they know.

  • @MadJack122

    because some of use are ok at guitar and just want to learn some things... but there is no point in learning something that u can plainly hear is wrong.
