Tutorial - Jack Johnson Taylor Intro

[mvargasvigil]

hey dick head. the worst teacher ever.

[Omegamer]

First thoughts: OH S**T WALTER WHITE!

[oOoultradudeOoO]

dude nice work ^^ one question wich tabs did you use?

[JoshuaKaiser1980]

@oOoultradudeOoO It was something off of UltimateGuitar I think. It's been years since I recorded this. I actually nearly deleted it but since some people actually seem to like it I guess I'll leave it up.

[darc587]

thanks this helped so much with the intro

[tennisman6]

Thanks, this helped a lot.

[salmonilla69]

whats up josh i like that song but is there a certain tune in this song you should learn old man by neil young GOOD SONG

im just a newb in guitar i have only been playing for 3 years and my aintie just sold my acoustic guitar on me because i moved out on her that f***in sux dude now i have nothing to play with

[CsAnnihilationII]

@ 1:42 can u make it clearer? i cant find the right note

[sou1k33per]

@CsAnnihilationII It is a 1st finger bar on the e and a string. you play a 1st fret to a 3rd hammer on the e then just play the 1st fret on the a

[forrest49]

I know this was your first but damn that is hard to learn from. Just I had no clue what your hands were doing.

[skimatski]

PLEASE show us the chords and verse..... nice job by the way ;)

[ashleynicole4444]

I can't even see your fingers. boo!

[austingode]

shit sorry i mean Josh.....

[austingode]

Hi Joe just like to say that after watching your tutorial i realized what i have been doing wrong.....and thats after spending hours on all the taylor help vids on youtube so thanks a lot and keep them coming . The problem i was having clicked straight away the first time i watched so.....im happy its a great intro and song thanks big man

[dimebagwarlock]

a lot of the comments left were "thumbs downed" when they should be taken in as constructive critisism, as he said guys its his first video im sure he wants to know what he did wrong and what he can do to improve, i agree with most of them, this is a simplified version of the song but i think its an alright version and great to learn off, the only thinkg i suggest is have the guitar facing more to the camera and slow er down a bit, other then that pretty well explained : )

[rappu9011]

this is sooooo not how u play taylor..lol!!!

[OnlineHighSchool]

Great video! I would love a video tutorial on how to play "Only You" by Makana

[beastilog]

the top is the 6th string:) good video by the way

[pitch84studios]

went too fast...not even the right way to play it

[chimpinzo]

Nice video, smoothly done and well explained

[sammyTCJ]

Hey josh very unclear, try turning your guitar so people can see what your doing and explain each section slowly. Also this not the correct way to play taylor. i suggest you listen to the track a few more times or buy his book before your next tutorial. Cheers

[tanman8014]

in future video tutorials you might want to be a little bit clearer on which strings and frets are p'd and h'd. also, this is slightly simplified from how the song is played by jack johnson.

[justinwwwalin]

thats what she said from 0:33 to 0:40

[MLBMVP13]

hahahahahahahahaha

[ryan8u4t]

ha ha ha you champion... thats halarious

[1jbaz]

Nice work.

[zeon008]

loved it thanks

[dlzonwlz]

im lost ... :(

[selfplex]

The best Taylor video I've seen. Bravo! Truly a great help to me learning guitar.

[dtmhawk2]

its nice, obviously quite old, but yea, its good, poor sound quality though. and your quite fancy with some parts (stretching) i mean, your teaching people who need to watcha video to nut out a tune, perhaps a little more basic would do well.anyway. good luck, and overall nice video.

[ShadiyaZ]

omg i swear i never left that comment. cos i havent been online for like a month and that comment was left 1 week ago and i also never swear you can ask my friends. im eally sorry but you have you believe me i wouldnt say that to this video ! im going to change my password now cos someone must have hacked into my account !

[m00resy]

1:33-1:38 is like wtf?

[KarleighOConnor]

Awesome josh! love it

[Bennys101]

fantastic!

[tangledup625]

Thanks,Josh. I didn't have my guitar handy,but I think that this will be very helpful next time I log on. Keep up the lessons. If this is your first, I can't wait to see them going forward! (I guess, as you posted this nine months ago..., you might have more out there. Thanks.

[Dunderkladden]

Dude! Can you make another video, where you firstly go through the whole tune, then walk us through it sloooowly :P and explain what you do :D thx ^^

[SquirrelStudios]

Wow, thanks, man. I pretty much had this one down except for that funky F near the end. Thanks for clearing that up for me. ;]

[aspirationsdive]

to fast. :/

[Choppy148]

Sorry not that Josh guy, andx16. This is clearly not Jack Johnson. You might get the hint when the vid starts. The first thing he said is, "Hi my name is Josh". Second thing. It says his name at bottom of the screen. Once again DORK!!

[mfmonthefmf]

Thanks Josh! this is very helpful, i just started playing and yes, I completely suck, so its nice to get some slow tutorials. If u r taking requests, I say post up "Mediocre Badguys" and "Symbol in My Driveway" great songs, and would love to learn them. Thanks again man, keep it up!

[andx16]

wait. is this jack johnson or are you just like imitating because u look different

[Choppy148]

Dork!!

[jaetupu]

andx16 you must be the biggest dickhead ever how can u ask that he even says his names josh at the start baboon.

[ShadiyaZ]

i think is speak for everyone when i say, you sir are a dick

[andx16]

does no one have a sense of humour? your all boring losers. especially you sir ShadiyaZ. youre real clever

[Allanlyngbye]

Hey Josh! This is the best tutorial I've seen so far for Taylor. Keep it up!

[dowlinglester]

Haha play it then hold your mouse over it to pause it at 1.45, looks well scary haha. Anyway great tutorial mate, much appreciated!

[KarleighOConnor]

awesome - o

[tikkolokko]

Hey josh nice lesson this vid has helped me alot, you should do more vids of jack johnson maybe that one song "good people", but thanx for the lesson

[fleurstu]

[biatch0706]

Thank you so much, you're totally great! I've been wanting to learn this song ever since :]

[krnxpoktan]

[iopzzz]

[undergroundbasement]

Good instruction, would really love to see an instructional on jack's "UpsideDown",I'd like to be able to play it exactly like "zuiquefonseca" version on here,I can play the basic rhythm but not the inbetween lead

[Artist4Justice]

You make a good teacher :)

Thanks for breaking that down!

Have a great day

[PookLowEnd]

Dude, I want your glasses.

[jamesgaspard]

This video is solely responsible for me being able to play the intro to that song, thanks!

[Chris7212]

Nice one bud it makes a change to see some one who can actually play the son teaching it

[mike1161]
