Phish - Reba

[rockenstoop]

impressive. seriously.

[Mossbandnj]

I've probably sent you emails before, but I just wanted to say again how awesome the tabs on emils are for this. THANK YOU!!

[driedtoast12]

respect man... where can I can the tab for this song?



[skate1423]

this is fucking amazing!

[theduffmanben]

props dude. this is insane. ridiculous song and you kicked its ass

[hugenoodles]

bag it tag it, sell it to the butcher at the store :D

[ronreiher]

dude i loved this man, seriously amazing i play phish too i only got down heavy things first tube and fluffhead right now. keep jamin dude. im seein them tomorrow in philly can't wait

[johnm14]

No way. I saw them at wachovia last night. It was incredible. Theyre going to have trouble topping the set. Tell me what its like.

[markah22]

Why not do the Jam??

[johnm14]

That's one of my favorite jams of all time. I would have torn that shit apart. It's just that i wanted to keep it in one video so i left it out. This was such a long time ago lol. I'm in college now. Some day I'll repost this and work out the kinks in my transcription and jam out. some day soon. Stay tuned!

[wesidetet19]

damn this is nice! perfect note for note

[PUIncubus]

best reba cover on the net....hands down... perfect timing and everything... nice brotha

[ElectricCandleLight]

VERY IMPRESSIVE! i enjoyed it. :)

[Fluffyfluffyhead]

nice. wanna jam?

[logan3088]

great tone man, what guitar (and pickups)and amp you use?

[desertfox202]

What can we say? If you can play Trey easily I suggest you move to the plastic strings. Obviously you are too talented for Rock n Roll... You have a serious talent.... Good Luck.

[pablodius]

Great Job man! I just saw the tab on emil's page... had to check out the video that you mentioned. however, after watching you play it, i think im going to stick to something more simple..........

[briandrum1]

so, what do you say....there's a Virtual Zeppelin....you know any bassist's and keyboardist's that would be down? I'm in and can handle the drum parts...you up for it?

[ezwind76]

impressive. I have only known one other to learn this tune note for note. He is in a band called Matter. Check them out on myspace. Super talented guy and good friend.

[qrb123]

good cover - great song - awesome vibe

[marsh824]

nice cover! got a reba at my 3rd phish show hooked me for good! I can't go to many shows this summer hoping for a massive new years celebration!!

[tomkts07]

what are you playing through?

[johnm14]

A little marshall practice amp. It was all I had back then haha.

[Drivenut4]

that was sick man... BUT GOD!! The end solo is the best part of the song!!

[PUIncubus]

thanks again for the tabs bro........no body on youtube has a better cover than this guy...trust me ive looked........just wannabe's wishing they knew the real chords... until i put mine up and i will have you to thank for that... : )

[TwilitParade]

hey dude is that your virtual loop on emils?

[johnm14]

Nope.

But I did do a tab.

[TwilitParade]

ye i know thats why i came to the video. jus wondering is the loop was you too. sweet tab though btw.

[divad1818]

woh. i like this the best out of your covers. really inside this one.

[TarkDaShark]

DUDE UR GOOD!!!!!!!!

[degr345]

awesome man! i cant imagine how long that mustve taken you to learn. ill be stoked if the reunion rumors are true. stick with it bro that was fucking amazing!

[gb342002]

they arent rumors. read their website.

[jherms11]

that was phenomenal

[zachattack858]

I'm really impressed... It's not just difficult to learn, it's also tough to just play. Trey is blessed with incredible creativity. And you have obviously been blessed with patience! Keep it up! I learned a lot! Thank you!

[JimmyPageisGOD]

worthless without a jam....

[PUIncubus]

agree and disagree.w/ the jam its way much harder cuz of when paige comes in normally on the second time through the break, and trey comes in one beat later echoing the effect.which im sure you know.but still man.this isnt a 4 or even 5 or 6 chord song...this has like over 10 different chords and progressions and changes...no.. notworthless w/ out a jam if your just showing everyone how good you are..and want to help people learn this song.hes a cool guy went out of his way to send me tabs

[PUIncubus]

trey anastasio is god

[pagonzalez1983]

you play it better than i've heard trey play it a few times! nice work, bro. i will never have chops like that.

[bnsguitar12]

dude your a beast it sounds great. im gonna use ur tabs and play this

[KristopherApa]

Sounds great but, wheres the jam?

[sherydan]

totally appreciating your effort in keeping up with the lyrics! haha. It's one thing to play like trey, but then its a totally different thing to throw the words on top of the guitar for this song. Reba makes me think of having ADHD, and i love it.

[joyvon19]

Really nice job man.....pleasure watching you!

[adobento]

what a beast! btw, this is Jimmy

[channykirbs]

oh my gosh! john!! your singing!! lol! idk why thats super funny 2 me but it is! lol : ) i hope your having fun in spain!

[theerion]

impressive, man. very.

[Formula405]

what i would find ultimately instructive would be literal instruction. That being a video of you sitting down and explaining all the theory and/or techniques involved in playing the song. that would be the absolute shit.

[johnm14]

I've actually been seriously considering doing that. I've made alot of corrections since this video. My only concern is that I'd discover more mistakes after I filmed it.

[Formula405]

even just working explanation into the tab would help considerably to instruct people

[bc74o7]

mostly pretty good almost all of the chordal parts you played aren't whats really played i sent in dan szabo's old powertab to emils a while back and its on there now check that out its just about exact with notation too.

[johnm14]

I don't see that. But did you see my tab? It's different from this. There's a link to it in the description of this video. I'm gonna record this again soon. It will be better.

[tomkts07]

its a pretty good tab. thanks alot b

[rrescozoo5]

I learned this song from your tab, it took about an hour but and repetitive playing it but I got it now, great song, even better jam

[johnm14]

Awesome! Glad I could help.

[benslooking4junk]

D00D! I play drumz / piano / sing! We should get a band, play songz, play out! and cash in! Dog! Seriously! Steely Dan, Phish, jazz ... etc.! Its Eezy Dog 4 Real! I'm in Rochester, Ny.

[imreiemet]

i wish you would have finished the song. ie. those wicked bends.

[johnm14]

Well I would've done my own solo for that section but youtube limits you to 10 minutes now and I hate making 2-part videos.

[PUIncubus]

could u please tab!!

[johnm14]

Allright I'll try.

Might take a while though

[Glowbug44]

I'd love to see Antelope and It's Ice.

[johnm14]

Actually. I recorded Ice the other day. It should be up in a few days. I dunno about antelope though. Thats mostly just jamming. but I'm planning on doing foam, fluffhead, david bowie and yem.

[Glowbug44]

Awesome. Only reason I ask about Antelope is I've never heard anyone cover it very convincingly. It's fairly straightforward except for the nuances in the way Trey plays it...In other words its not the notes, it's the way they're handled. yah know? How long you been playing guitar?

[johnm14]

Like 3 years.

[Grumbot]

dude

do divided sky.

[johnm14]

dude

no

lol

[phishmd]

Nice. Thanks for sharing!

[johnm14]

wow please dont spam me!

[RYoung31381]

after you finish singing the last verse and do the walk up on the B string, are you hammering on a C minor chord??? If you go to strangedesign, the song isn't tabbed right. Id like to learn the part starting with the chord hammer on and then the notes following it. Any suggestions??

[johnm14]

No its a... Eb major triad. It's Bb barred triad on the D G and B string hammered on to this Eb triad. But it is really a bit more complicated than that. And as for tabs, there are no correct tabs of the Reba arrangement on the net. I've been considering tabbing Reba and posting it on Emilstabs. If you have any further questions I'd be glad to help.

[RYoung31381]

If you ever get the time to tab out the song, I would love to see it. Its so hard to find tabs that are correct. Thanks again for your responses and for posting the video.

[PUIncubus]

agreed please tab it and let us know!

[RYoung31381]

have you tabbed this out??? you do an awesome job playing this

[johnm14]

I haven't tabbed it out. In fact I recently found some mistakes in my transcription. I might refilm this later. Thanks for the compliment.

[JizzFaceLover]

no, learn the song up to the jam...do a jam that is all you're own (make sure its completely improve while sticking to the over all feel of the original jam. good luck on that crazy arpeggio section man, you can definately do it..then you'll be the man

[johnm14]

Dude I learned that piece like 2 months ago lol. But it is def my next vid. Thanks for the advice though.

[kcor]

if u had a lisp u would be trey, cool shit man, cant wait to see more

[johnm14]

Haha. Trey doesn't have a lisp. If he did he couldn't sing "Reba flush a flesh farm leftover..." I sure as hell can't! anyway I am planning to put up new videos shortly. I have David Bowie next on my hit list. and then YEM or Rift perhaps? Thanks for watching.

[soam24]

sick man, sounds dope!

[JizzFaceLover]

request = David Bowie ALL the way through

[johnm14]

Wow I've been practicing that one alot. I think I'm doing it next. You're like a psychic. By all the way through do you mean the Jam too?

[washuffitze2]

oh and whens YEM coming? haha

[johnm14]

Actually, I think that's what im gonna film next. I'm also thinking about doing david bowie and rift. And I'm trying to master All things Reconsidered, which is ... scary.

[washuffitze2]

did u use emils tabs for this?

[johnm14]

Nah. I used A transcriber program that slows down MP3's. I think it's reasonably accurate.

[ummagummas08]

Play it with a drummer who knows the beats well, and it'll be close to perfect. It's hard to keep that kind of rhythm up, way to go!

[johnm14]

Thanks man. I'm thinking about refilming this one because of all the mistakes.

[johnm14]

And the poor lighting

[juani29]

sick, awesome, righteous!!!

[jrlong29]

sick, simply sick. Hey play antelope!!!

[Casey1stCav]

Whoa!! i'm jealous...how long to master that?

[johnm14]

about 3 or 4 days.

[sneakypower]

10 stars. Is it perfect? No, but it's funking great and a alot farther than I ever got (and I consider myself to be an accomplished guitarist and Phish coverer.) Do us all proud and repost this with better lighting and a few of the minor kinks ironed out. You are a sick guitarist!!!!!

[OMS211]

wow, really really impressive. ive been playing phish for years and i cant get anything close to that. kudos

[wavetitan53]

dude, you're amazing

[johnm14]

thanks bra

[guinnes842]

very nice.....anyone talking shit is lame as hell.

[JCFOysterhead]

[melissaf420]

amazing,keep it up!!

[Junction133]

::high five::

[LouGehrigsDisease]

[phunkyglass]

[django519]
