[orangmakan]

[javiermzas]

very good version

[warddoggy]

man i i can say is you are jamming

[nappyroots81]

NICE! you did it justice!

[tumlin1]

im trying to tab this by watching and listening...do you have the tabs?

[ramses4321]

sorry but but i don't have the tabs for this. i just got it from hearing and playing along and adding some of my own stuff ..

[cartoonistkid001]

what tuning did you use? this is pretty good.

[ramses4321]

Thanks. i used open G, although the original version is played in standard tuning. I was discovering the joy of open tuning and so decided to use it.

[DewbCannon]

impressed with the playing good job

[melkichou]

it's well done but your guitar is a little bit out of tune. great job

[ramses4321]

have you heard about open tuning? i think what you say "out of tune" is the open tuning effect. sometimes your ears need to get used to it.

[nautilus55]

Do you use scales for the improvising?

I'm trying to imitate the way you played that song.

Its actually coming along well, and cause of your video, something has resparked my will to practice more.

[twigleaf2]

that was awsome!! you played it so good

do you think you can teach us how to play that?

[ramses4321]

i'm afraid i cant't help much with teaching. not a good teacher. i'm ready to help with questions though.

[peacefrog1916]

nice one man

[punkyspirit]

I really love your guitar !!

What is it ? A Fender, I know but the model ?

[ramses4321]

Its a Fender Redondo. It was bought in the mid eighties which makes it a very old guitar. A very good one :-)

[thugnasty6969]

that was sick man. keep it up

[lankeyjb202]

I think I pissed my pants listening to this. Awesome playing.

[NickOLarse999]

That's a sweet sound dude. Can u post a tab somewhere?

[Ericclapton24000]

Great job! You rock! Keep it up man!

[SaeedBaba]

Nice. I should try open G

[carolinasled]

Makes me want to pickup a guitar and try and learn how to play. Sounds Good.

[mrwestside33]

Awesome bro

[FlaBoyRock]

I really liked that. Excellent job. I am just learning the song. I'll be sure to watch this one a few times!

[buskerbuoy]

Nice playing and nice guitar - cutaways on acoustics spoil the sound.

[ironfistnick]

how long have you been playing guitar for mate? I hope to one day be as good as you ... absolutely brilliant. Reply would be much appreciated!

[ramses4321]

Its been a long time. Around 30 years. I'm not that good. It's just Open G magic making that sexy sound. I just love how Keith Richard plays guitar....

[lookylooky2006]

very nice job very nice

you have to know when to play the chords and when to pick notes of the chords to get the lead sound and it looks like rams was in the c# scale doing some fine picking

[zelesluk]

what tuning did you use???

[ramses4321]

I used open G although i believe the studio version is played in standard tuning.I just felt Open G would make a different sound..

[guitarina]

BRAVO!!! :P

[pwnypls1]

dude, i play the bass, and i know a guy on drum's.......lol, i wish. anyway, nice vid

[ramses4321]

yeah. that would be nice :-)

[nico383]

very nice playing!! amazing

[hoogpah]

nice levels

[jx14aby]

Nicely done. I love this song.

[mcca7400]

great job, lovin this

[Kamal767]

Man oh man, you have it nailed. Beautiful improv, but you hold it all down at the same time.

[sanmarz]

hey i noticed you took - both - rhythm and lead guitar into one guitar, its a very nice work!! do you have this tabbed???

[ramses4321]

unfortunately i dont have any tabs for this. i just listened to the record and tried to play along...

[tlopez7278]

Very nice. The Stone are kick ass and you look like you ARE having fun. You need me jammin on the drums witcha!

[videotaker4356]

Look at my own accoustic guitar in my profile. I think I have the same Fender model.

[ramses4321]

Yeah. It seems to be the same model. Fender Redondo. for how long do you have that?

[videotaker4356]

Yes, that's it. Mine is a Redondo model too. I bought it from one of my friends 15 years ago. It's a pretty good and beautifull accoustic guitar. I tried to find something that talk about this model over the internet and I found nothing else than a Redondo on sale at ebay (it's not yours by any chance) :-)

[ramses4321]

My guitar has around 21 years but still has a good sound. I like this guitar very much. You found nothing on the internet about it probably because its from a time where there was no internet at all :-) I'll be keeping mine for several years more :-). You are a really good guitar player btw. Take care. :-)

[justin6241983]

Dude you and Keith Richards are my fuckin heroes!

[lorenzino1]

hi! very well played , for the guitar part! it does just rest to sing! i've always have thought that if you play with the author's CD, you can' t bring your "touch" to the song, and if it's to try to play exactly like the author, he will always play it better than the others, so I don't really see the interest: but good job for the guitar!

[mlb2014]

Awesome

[Kirkola]

I play this differently but I love what you did...sounds very melodic

[BRANCALEONE001]

great job,man.

[kg624]

Do you know "Miss You"????

[justin6241983]

very good job man, great song! Think you could play midnight rambler?

[ramses4321]

i can play midnight rambler too. i love the stones sound and can play several of their songs.

[justin6241983]

can you play midnight rambler, and post it one here?

[kg624]

Hey, I just got my first guitar and I hope that I'll be able to play this tune some day. I love the Stones. It sounds so awesome coming from your guitar. Anyway, I still watch this video just about everyday. Did you teach yourself to play?? Did you just play this by ear?? Which ever way I love it.

[ramses4321]

Yes i taught myself. Practicing is the key. I also bought some books with chords, etc. For this song i heard the music and then tried to lift the licks just by ear.

[MissFlirtyPants]

OMG! I'm SOOO inspired, just watching you. My friend shared your "Honky Tonk Women" clip and now I can't wait to see more of your playing! I've subscribed!!! :o)

[bb1689]

Excellent right on. i also love that guitar. its awsome i had a hell of a time learning from it though.

[beggarz]

Yeh, man, great playing - you got the riffs and the feel - I dunno if this is in open G, keith is so damn sly sometimes it's hard to tell - I thought is was standard, but you make it sound right here, and I still can't get it exactly - gonna lift some of your licks and see if it sounds better :-))

[ZiggyStardust35]

Wow! very impressive! sounds great! :)

[kg624]

What kind of Fender guitar is that?? Please tell me.

[ramses4321]

It's a Fender Redondo. Very old guitar. 20 years!!

[kg624]

Wow. 20 years old. You're great I've been watching this video over and over. The Wild Horses was really good as well.

[SpaxterBack]

Very well done!

[TieDyeGuitar]

I learned the song but it doesnt sound as good i would love for you to show me how you play it!!

[ramses4321]

Beast of burden is a song that can be seen as a series of dialogs between 2 guitars having the rhythm section in the background. Playing it solo is very dificult. Maybe this is why you don't find that many covers as a one man show out there. Let me see if i can find some time and come out with my interpretation which may not be exactly what the Stones do. If i find the time i'll post it here. Grobn plays it very well and he gave some ideas.

[utubesucks2003]

The fact that you filmed yourself live and for the first time ever hearing this song, and spontaniously realizing each melody change as you are listening to the song is very applaudable.

[Vipterm]

im learning some tunings before work today. found out my tuners problem. no batteries came with it. Tuned to open G and sounds very harmonic. must try out some rolling stones now :D

[Vipterm]

im not familiar with open G or any other tunings than standard for that matter <.< its cool, make fun of me now ;D

[zlatantheman]

haha no worries, neither am I. Except for drop D of course;)

[Vipterm]

i wish people could write tabs like how you play, then I would be able to actually learn something other than power chords :D

[grobn]

That should be a B chord, not an Eb, in the beginning that changes to an E. Good chops, though, well done.

[ramses4321]

grobn thanks for your comment. Actually i'm playing in open G. Does it change anything in your comment regarding B chord? Do you play this song in standard tuning? I don't know excatly how the stones play it but i bet it's open G because the sound i get is very similar :-)

[grobn]

I think the opening riff is in standard tuning. It goes B/E/B/C#m, and I see you have to substitute an F# note for the second B chord. And because your 1st string is down a step, you play C#m7, which doesn't sound right. The B to E is a full chord hammer-on, BTW, not a slide. Hope that helps. Maybe I'll try to do a video sometime.

[ramses4321]

I'll explore your way and see the results. It's good to hear other's perspectives. It would be nice to see your video. Sharing is the keyword.

[mariule2]

great! Please post more

[kpkp2006]

cool..nice job

[godofthunder67]
