Learned the first chord years ago but never knew the name Thank you! I quit playing a few years back and this is one of the BEST vids I have come across! I met SRV way back when & he used alot of Jimi's chords so you are helping me w/ his music as well! I look forward to more! And yes I subscribed :)

[dylanvinita]

@dylanvinita so thanks for not playin in Eb

[TheEditingShop]

That riff is heavy! I will be jamming that very hard!

[LarryRickenbacker]

Isn't that basically the same chord one hears in that Stevie Winwood song (from the mid 60s) called "I'm a man"?

[ELSOL102]

I spent some time today on these chords and I just now played what you played in the beginning of the video...not as good as you...but a lot better than when I started. This is great. Thank you so much. Interesting too how you play those notes on the E string....I had to think about it at first wondering why you weren't in the box...then...oh yeah...key of E on the E string. Dahhh!

[nanzis]

[jwandhistools]

[nicklassayshi]

Was this intro improv?

[rotren]

@nicklassayshi Yes, just wankin around.

[madbeatz]

@rotren lmfao!

[00Beowulf00]

This chord can also be called the "SRV-chord" as Stevie Ray Vaughan used it intensively too but he never hid the fact that Hendrix was a major influence to him.

[Noseheros]

@00Beowulf00 true...but hendrix used it more in general and used it obviously before SRV, but SRV had some AMAZING techniques Hendrix never had the chance to embrace, and he needs credit for those

Little Miss Lover?

[Noseheros]

[rippedwarrior69]

Sounds like Van Damme teaching guitar lol. Great job.

[1996Prashant]

AMAZING

[piggassos]

well done perfect lesson thank you very much

[bond00777777]

very good

[stevec356]

Great lesson Robert! Thanks.

[moucon]

Good Lesson. But let's not confuse the masses about nomenclature/naming. It's only a "Dominant 7" if it's the V chord in a key. In E - B major is the "Dominant" chord and therefore B7 would be the "Dominant 7".. A major - the IV chord is the "sub-dominant". I suppose you could call E7 in the key of E a "root 7" or something, but nobody does (at least I've never heard that).

[illini3332]

In that first progression 0:00 to 0:25, are you just riffing off the A minor pentatonic? Would that progression be in the key of A?

[illini3332]

Is that still an A major chord even though you are muting the A string?? When playing with the thumb over the top i mean

[HitaroX]

purple hace and wind cries mary

[klv400]

what do you do if you got small hands?

[guitarskater11]

@klv400 none of these require large hands. just keep playing the chords you'll get used to it

[moucon]

@klv400 Get a Fender Mustang ;-)

[Vanguard448]

@moucon Or a Jaguar, for that matter.

[klv400]

Great Video!!!!!

[sweatgoat77]
