man i think this is the best californication solo ever! i love it. and thanks for your tab transcription which is on facebook. im learnin it and i cant get this amazing sound with my amateur mechanic! suck:(
Yo man, is that sound coming from JUST your guitar into your line 6podpocket and wh10 wah? PLUS your GOLDEN hands? please reply man, that clean reverby gritty sound is SO fuckin GOLD
You're awesome... I like the way you play with only your 3 fingers, John plays like this, but he uses more his forth one, you've a very personal way to play, I love it ^^
alright more power to you, but do give the other way a chance. I explained why in that part 3 vid, but since that got screwed I'll explain why again when I redo it. I heard you got a new job too I hope that's not stopping any practicing ;P
@JF4ever if i were him i would not change the thumb position. it really helps a lot, you can strum all the strings really hard and only hear what you want. really good skill to have, better if you are a begginer
I strongly disagree as would most guitarist. It's fine here and there but pressing hard on strings and having your thumb constantly over the neck can cause injury, less flexibility and keep you slow, and un-uniformed . pressing hard on strings causes notes to go sharp. I'm not knocking him I'm stating a fact. Better discipline now means you don't have to fix things later...passion plus technique means being able to play anyway you want without any mysteries
@JF4ever "I strongly disagree as would most guitarist."
i dont think so. even john frusciante said that using the thumb is a better technique and that is better to strum all the strings at once instead of picking all you want.
it does not cause injury, it hurts more when you have all your fingers on the fretboard and your thumb on the back supporting all your hand
and it makes hammers and pull offs easier therefore you play faster. jimi hendrix used this too
John is actually one of the most sloppiest guitarists out there...Look I know you want to defend the techniques of your heroes, but my point is more than valid. If you are referring to the pain in your thumb that's something you get as beginner developing that muscle, but it won't lead to carpal tunnel if you rest inbetween. Listen if you want to get arguing this point we can do it on our youtube pages, not flood his vid with this...
I'm just saying to help with the proper foundations haha. of course once you get everything break the dam rules, but there is always a point to learning it. alright rant over haha
can you send me please the tabs??

Jakiego sprzętu używasz ogólnie do takiego johno-podobnego brzmienia?
Ile czasu juz grasz na gitarze?
Gitarka mogłaby byś troche bardziej głośna, by mozna było uchwycić lepiej solo.

no way. :P
when i started with guitar i wanted to be like hendrix and frusciante and now this kind of playing is second nature to me.
i can also grab chords with thumb behind the neck but when i play solo, thumb over the neck is much more comfortable for me :P

yea he did. he didn't know how to read notation.
JF4ever 2 years ago
im not hendrix and i need to know it ;p
i think that 3 years without it was great and im glad that sometime im able improvise something which sound good to me without knowing music theory.
i tried to learn it by myself, but it is hard. i think i was to lazy.
i dont spare to much time on typical exercises. i just try to have fun and i didn;t need it to enjoy playing guitar.
but now i feel i need to know all those scales, chord and notes. :P
Special thanks to JF4ever :D
