[di1an]

I think Carl actually tops Guthrie due to his overall musicality.

[paryanpur]

this is wonderful

[kourfal]

1:20 "sort of meant and potatos" lol

[ZeppelinRules]

Sounds Chili Pepperish

[RelaxNplay64]

Carl is extremely talented, dude has his shit together

[arva300178]

I happen to play skank alot without knowing it FOR CHRIST SAKE!!!!!

[robzbobz]

John Frusciante has this shit on LOCK!

[concertoldham]

That is a sexy riff.

[topdog2328]

i saw his band when they came to play at our local guitar shop, it was awesome

[themacmann24]

They should've layered taht bass line when he played the lick all together, would've sounded great

[UKToneKing]

This guy is one of the best guitarists I have ever heard , he is like greg koch in that he is so versatile, he can take his hand to anything and pull it off perfect.

[JohnGuitarSolo]

Another cool one Guitar World Magazine !

Love these guitar world lessons

John

[lralbrecht]

outrageous 

[TubeFil]

this is one of the most valuable guitar lessons I have ever seen on YT

[funkyjones]

"Skank"....I love it.

[bloodyleech]

awww beautiful i learned alot....... the chords were easy..... the strumming is the were i need to work I'll have this in no time

[louchemobile]

Lose the delay.

[twangbarfly]

@louchemobile Hey, you could probably make a lot of money giving tips to Carl Verheyen and others of that ilk about guitar playing - perhaps you can post some stuff up here for lesser mortals too - now that would be cool!

[louchemobile]

@twangbarfly I trust you live by your own principle - you never criticise sports stars, politicians etc.

[twangbarfly]

@louchemobile Never ever.... never ever ... never ever... oops, sorry about the delay - just can't manage to find the off button :-)

[489177]

Carl's cool man.

[hotpoot]

Great video, great player. But good god does he reek of that cheesy, insincere LA attitude and mentality.

[chocomalk]

@hotpoot

I went to MI in the early 90's and met Carl several times and he is by far one of the most sincere and humble people I have ever met. He was always very open to discussion and was always willing to help. He even let me jam on his rig for a few songs.

[afreecountry]

Good vid, shows a nice little technique that can be applied to many styles

[55slice]

One of the better vids....tastey and very informative.

[IwillbeWaiting]

wow, i realy liked this guy...this rythm lines are just great!! looking forward to learn as much as i can from this. Excellent video!

[RicardCastro]

Bravo!

[nellgit]

this guy is so well versed ...what a player!

[spoddie]

Wow a guitarist who considers his place in the rest of the band. That is so different to every genius bedroom guitarist dishing out advice on Youtube, but who has never even played with a band.

[peterstrohm]

@spoddie This guy is just insane - and I also second your sentiments on all the utoob-gitar-heroes!1 that seem to never die out, giving advice to players like G. Govan, etc. It's laughable.

[rooseguitar64]

@spoddie That is how all of the old guitarists of the big band era played..Eddie Lang, Charlie Christian, Tal farlow...those guys understood that while the guitar can represent virtuosity.... they were part of a team developing a song...the old guitarists sought to embellish and develop the theme... Guys like Herb Ellis would use block chords to carry the rhythm because at the time, the horns, woodwinds or piano carried the melody.

[di1an]

@spoddie VERY well put!!!



[kewlfonz]

@spoddie LOL!!!

[Fiarzen]

arranger credit, but never geddit

rhymes ;)

[ravovasquez]

nice carl vagina!

[t0psecretshit]

[diewabbit]

[MagnumBullets47]

I WANT THAT TONE!!!!!! XD

[TubeFil]

one of the best players out there..

[dougmattingly]

Carl, you have no idea how many one skanks I've met. j/k Steve Watson used to call that stuff "skank funk" back in the 80s.  Nice.

[Archurroh]

haha skanks are awsome!!!!

[beleza175]

grooving like crazy!

[TheHammersFall]

rofl skank geetar yeeee

[Johngtr13]

I think I could listen to his opening bass riff all day.

[ben5r]

that first c minor riff is born under a bad sign by albert king

[ibanezbloke]

@ben5r It's also Mustang Sally. It's a pretty common pattern.

[tomodrive]

that is such a pristine sound !

[Dudeprelude69]

Carl is simply outstanding musician

[lhurien]

Carl why don't you loop the other part, so we can hear them together. Thanks, sounds great, don't pay attention to the moron wanabes.

[Guitarscreech06]

the shit he does @ 3:12 is fookin ace, sounds like RHCP

[MrBADENWEILER]

Serge Tabachnikov - Vol. 3. my blues...

[mrolgyik]

[thumperm37]

Wow !

[reverendjetstream]

You're the best, Carl!

[Lukeyboi14]

that is some good funk

[stangebrew1]

Carl is one of the best players ever and a gentleman to boot , pure class

[dempsey981]

i screwed my post up on this guy.ive been playin and listening to good players for over 35 years.ive never heard anybody come even close to this guy live,or not live period.ive heard some great ones too,but this guy in alot of ways kind of simply takes the cake.i mean he's complex,yet melodic,interesting....what can ya say?i mean versatile,one gets the feeling that on the stuff that counts,he is simply a brilliant total player.its wonderful,yet slightly depressing that it gets this good.wow

[dempsey981]

when i first started really scanning for an influence online,i thought this was the man.more than anyone i personally saw teach here,this man seemed to have the most to offer.thank u sir.

[Mariofan7]

Wow, Carl is a rythym genius.

[minneapolis7967]

I tried this idea with my wah pedal it felt like the 1970's again; cool.

[dempsey981]

this guys got a good guitar head,and good hands,a pro

[surfco]

Carl knows his stuff REALLY well!

Not your average strat player.

[BeastlyBlues]

[GtrDudeL]

[MaBluesisMaLife]

[nickknirk]

Cool video, never seen Carl play that tele or skank style.

[PrashantAswani]

Brilliant recording insight.

[xp0ferens]

this guy is awesome

[richardwu0609]

carl is truly a good teacher!

[Torfinnmadssen]

There are way too few lessons on rhythm guitar! Keep them coming!

[scorpia616]

That was truly brilliant!

[AlessioSfasci]

Great musician

[aaciseric]

That was a really useful lesson, i've been playing rhythm guitar for years now but it still never gets old getting littles tips like some of the ones from this lesson. Hope GW does some more of these types of video.

[skleung]

hwy guitarworld....these MI session videos are probably the best of your vid series....please keep them coming :)

[zarquan99]

how do you do skank thats soo cool!!

[Steve128967]

I'm pretty sure you use your thumb over the back of the neck to mute lower strings and then the fingers you aren't using to mute the higher strings.

[suihkubad]

You obviously have never played a fender american standard strato or heard SRV or Hendrix

[walrussalad]

i'm getting into MI in 2 years or so :p

[hdansin]

maybe not, wierd

[hdansin]

thinline, you can see its semi-hollow

[Yowzow]

Skank guitar?

[DannyGuitar12]

Its a fender jaguar

[Jaredrock1996]

@DannyGuitar12 are u retarded? It clearly says telecaster at :53, and jaguars have a completely different shape look of the pickups

[DannyGuitar12]

Sorry i just don't play shit guitar that much to tell the difference ... and you should have more respect even to people you don't know... i can tell your an immature little ugly fuck that has no girlfriend...

[Jaredrock1996]

@DannyGuitar12 So you cant read? IT SAYS TELECASTER RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SCREEN

[DannyGuitar12]

Not really....

[ChucklesMginty]

It's nice to have a lesson that still teaches you when you don't have the transcriptions!

[LemonInYourEye]

Yeah, its nice to have a video that tells you HOW to play, not WHAT to play.

[Fishies125]

@LemonInYourEye EXACTLY!

[krisitantobias]

@LemonInYourEye

best comment.. ^^

[xdivinebladex]

Carl Verheyen FTW

Awesome awesome lesson

[SandWraith123]

this is really great, especially for playing in a band and knowing where to fit in

[XxSconeManxX]

Very interesting lesson, although I wouldn't say that this necessarily applicable for all guitar styles, it is impressive nonetheless, and a pretty interesting outlook from the 'mix' perspective.

[johndennerrocks]

Cool great guitar lesson

[Bartboy7777777]

I saw this guy at The Baked Potato! He is an awesome guitarist. He even signed my two cd`s and dvd. Really nice guy.

[Blackened1993]

[MistahhB]

[lauriemonk]
