Probably the most beautiful-sounding guitar chords

[strife725]

sounds like incubus

[andaz28]

It's sort of good but in a sort of ' look at me just chillin all cool, playing my guitar whilst my mum makes my tea, then after this I'm gonna update my Facebook status with the word " RAD " you know? Cos I'm a cool rocking ,living with my daddy in the USA' sort of guy then maybe smoke some weed and then cry myself to sleep in a heap of self loathing

[Jadesong]

nice, love the over lay... people are silly not to like stuff but maybe the title just set bar so high. keep tappin'.

[spider62able]

Very nice, you should record this with some percussion and fretless style bass! Multi tracking is very affordable and this deserves it!

[Giuseppetiberi]

nice sound!!! which phaser have you used?

[wingedstring]

Feels like, going to the supermarket...

[TheJeeves2020]

The Sims soundtrack? :) Nice man it's beautiful!

[TheVintageMe]

OH MY GOODNESS. I LOVE IT BEAUTIFUL!!!



[SstalkerS]

Really appreciate this tune, the delay effect is my life..

[SstalkerS]

Sweet feel man, haven't thought about tapping into chords like this b4, thanks!

[mattology64]

thats sweet:)

[oooledzeppelinooo]

what delay have you used?

[MalinariTheMind]

Actually the chords are B add11 and A add9 because the 3rds are present. Sarcasm can make you look like a fool sometimes.

[hombreg1]

i like how guitar player get all bitchy and press the dislike button

[BigmoneyTx409]

TABS OR GTFO......please :)



[KylenBray]

dude when did you get off the mythbusters? :)

[bexiebushguitar]

this reminds me of the mighty boosh x

[ibanezman04]

B sus4 A sus4 B sus4 A sus4 .. oh wow -_-

[Reonlasbard]

@ibanezman04 lolololol

[LaWey]

@ibanezman04 but it still sounds beautiful :)

[strife725]

@ibanezman04 are they not just B and A major chords? the position isn't that of a sus4 chord...thot it does somewhat sound like it, but that might just be the reverb carrying the notes over almost as a suspended voice

[ibanezman04]

@strife725 actually it is just bsus4 and asus2 chords as he is implementing the top two strings (E & B) into each chord adding another root and added 4th on the B chord and adding another 5th and 2nd on the A chord. So suck out

[explorateurdesairs]

Nice

[jakatak]

You spelled cheesy wrong.

[Andreixcool]

Wow! Amazing!!!!!! :D

[glistninganalbeads]

Yawn..,

[TheOneAndOnly554153]

This is sikkk!! nice one !!

[RetardWar]

What exactly are the chords?

[TheObviousTruths]

@RetardWar the two in the beginning are b and a major.

[separator94]

Wow. Surprisingly great! Have you ever thought about making an ambient album? You could certainly do it. This song right here could be a definite ambient hit.

[thrummer1953]

Say what you will, this is lovely & evocative.

[mahomie323]

what is there to dislike on this?

[rotarymotion1]

Nice work. Reminds me of a wonderful Hawkwind song, 'Fable of a Failed Race'

[bluesgurugod]

You think rather highly of yourself...

[MrMaxxTV]

@bluesgurugod i don't think he does. i mean, it's not like he wrote the chords. and the melody was nice. i think him saying "probably the most beautiful-sounding guitar chords" was paying his respect to music and notes themselves and what kind of beautiful sound they can create.

[EMCAL13]

tutorial?? :)

[RUDIE110]

beautiful sound, creative and from the heart!

[vasagram]

I love it.... Kinda sounds likes John Mayer.

[BloodSugarSexMagik10]

beautiful sound

[jca3746]

I don't care about the fact that he used special effects, I love his creativity and imagination!

[tiller9123]

It's okay. a bit generic. if you wanna play some super pretty shit learn some minor formations in this tuning Db Ab Db Gb Bb Eb and ease up on the delay.

[ILoveYourMumAndChips]

Lav this. Don't care how it's made, why it's made. If it makes me feel good, it is good. <3

[SimeonBonino]

put the video on x2 speed thubs up

[SimeonBonino]

@SimeonBonino yes thubs up 

[cobaltw]

dude, this is aweome! what are the last chords?

[danboi2k11]

i sorry but that sounds boaring to me personal opinion

[guitar19904]

@danboi2k11

your english is awfull

[brinkmaned]

Great stuff. Sounds great Thanks for sharing.

[VacolocoSynth]

Nice, very Steve Hillage, at least to my ears.

[MrUltraworld]

Sounds really nice, even on my shitty lap top speakers. Whats in your signal path?

[EspGuitars1337]

If this were a restaurant, it would be a really, really, really nice restaurant..

[Jaket2000]

I never played like that until I took an arrow to the knee.......

[dme257]

"This is the most blatant case of fraudulent advertising since my suit against the film, "The Never-Ending Story!"

--Lionel Hutz

Nah, I'm just kidding. Those progressions are nice.

[BasementBeginnings]

@dme257 You're a mammoth douchebag.

Nah, just kidding. You're pretty cool and shit.

[dme257]

@BasementBeginnings hmmm...i'm curious: why the base, personal attack? anonymity helps, but my comment was a benign jab whereas yours is more of an ad hominem. i really do like the chords in the video but one must assume, and fully expect, that a claim like "the most beautiful-sounding guitar chords" (or any lofty assertion of that nature) will no doubt be met with skepticism, and playful in my case, especially in referencing a character like Lionel Hutz. But why be nasty? Oh yeah, anonymity...

[BasementBeginnings]

@dme257 This is a tasty sandwich.

[adrianjamilyoung]

this is dope

[reoreason]

Good.

[RydynShotgun]

This sounds somewhat like some of Widespread Panic's stuff. Good stuff in my opinion.

[zapster2412111]

If u play with your nut sack u can spew out countless sperm chords making a lavish symphony and heart stoping version of i (spanked myself without your old under wear that had a hole in it) thanks for reading this untill i blew in your face.

[RydynShotgun]

@zapster2412111 Smoke meth much?



[zapster2412111]

@RydynShotgun no as a matter of fact i dont.do. you play guitar?

[RetroSamTV]

I just figured out your song by ear in 5 sec. THANKS!

[KyleAtLarge]

@anguskahn22 I'm just saying you should understand what you're talking about before you say "lol you suck."

[anguskahn22]

@KyleAtLarge

He doesn't suck, the fact is that he named this video thinking these are the most beautiful sounding guitar chords when really they are very generic, uninspired, and not really that interesting at all

[DavisTheDude]

@SlappaDaBass They're major.

@anguskahn22 You've been told enough.

[PicturaSonus]

Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you the most beautiful chords ever invented.

A AND B.

No but seriously, leaving those two top strings open does add a nice touch. I love playing these types of chords on acoustic.

[MrTimurbizel]

r u using mxr 90 phase?

[linzy543]

Jesus i dont understand the grief this vid is getting. Sure the name is a bit misleading but its still nice. But then again the top comments just prove how jealous people are. They arent powerchords.

[SteveUrkeI]

I puked, so cheesy and generic

[kc5tng]

I liked it but Im a drummer so go figure.

[Igotknobblies]

Coming amongst a selection of Tommy Emanuels work I thought it may actually be good. OK, with the special effects its nice, but try and do it with no effects with the same results as Tommy and you may get some admirers. Me? Nah thanks!

[bbeaup]

i pooped into a paper bag and it sounded better. no not really, this is just a bit generic for me.

[astroboirap]

your fingers look like an old man whose spent all of his life excessivley masterbating.

your music sounds like forgettable musak that would be playing in a new age hippy shop that sells overpriced joss sticks.

[Whisker93]

sounds like a pat metheny song

[jamietooltrickett]

that was cool !



[MrOzzy123fest]

cool!

[BRTtrogdor]

lawl @ major chords

[ultradeathmetal666]

myth busted at 0:55



[2blaforge]

try it without the effects- it would sound like crap



[stix471]

@2blaforge which is why he used effects, retard -_____-

[GuyNamedCarl]

Nice, but not the most beautiful guitar chord ever...

[mrlantern23]

Awesome dude! Sounds like something I'd write.

[Raistlin605]

You sure know your E-Form major chord, lol. :P

[p2psux5]

sounds like something they play in the waiting room at the dentist

[ferlottes]

ahaahah good joke !

[666767]

nice\

[DoctorEeam]

@Niftified Looking good brother. Don't mind the naysayers, they were all abused children who are still going through a serious regimen of counseling and mood behavior specialists.

[7513brandon]

dude it sounded great the only reason these people are talking shit is because your not a famous musician if it were zepplin or somebody with a name they would be different keep up the good work it was a pleasure listening and for the people talking so much shit who are you to talk shit about the way he plays musicians any way good job man and for the shit talkers go ahead and talk shit about my comment to ill sleep soundly tonight knowing i gave you a reason to whine about something

[MikeAnnan]

Beautiful, man. Don't listen to these losers talking about hiding behind delay or only using power chords. If you closed your eyes and just listened would it really make a difference? If this were played on a piano no one would be talking shit about power chords. Music is music and it can be beautiful no matter how you create it.

[guitar45rocks5]

@MikeAnnan I agree 100%. It sounds amazing.

[superstriker00]

@MikeAnnan Well, on a piano powerchords cease to be easy. But I get your dirft, it sounds nice but I've heard better.

[RUDIE110]

@MikeAnnan lots of respect, beautiful words. True musicians at heart, appreciate all types of music no matter how it is played nor what it is played on! peace :)

[Alpha7xxx]

You can bet that any YouTube video with a superlative in the title will be completely gay.

[Funkussionist]

Sounds lovely

[twistedmr]

effects aside, i agree they are truely beautifull sounding chords.

[Jamsessionroom1337]

You know, you can play fast and make it sound beautiful... But i think it's a matter of preference, i personally don't hear much being played, just taking advantage of delay/phaser.

[BriFreak67]

His guitar _ the Fender Stratocaster, with maple fretboard, is very Atmospheric - thanx!!

[MegaTronn]

Haters gonna hate and never appreciate. For everyone else, here's good music for your ears.

[Alpha7xxx]

@MegaTronn Shut the fuck up.

[MegaTronn]

@Alpha7xxx No.

[MrMarbledude]

good, but not "the most beautiful ever"

[petervsthechicken]

meh

[Jungleboy867]

sounds so much like buckethead, but good job

[callmelucy10]

This is awesome! Good job!

[pouncey007]

sounds like Smashing Pumpkins

[MrFyallopsca]

Could you tab this?

[Theonegamefreak]

Can you make a recording of this?

Higher mp3 and all. Please.

[SJ9495]

what chords r u playing?

[akquarius]

Cool stuff!

[normtheclone]

Nice chill music.

[anguskahn22]

OHYEAH, POWERCHORD IN A GENERIC REPEATED PROGRESSION ARE SO PRETTY

[7goatmilk7]

@anguskahn22 OH YEAH, GENERIC TROLL DOING ITS REPEATED TROLLING.

[anguskahn22]

@7goatmilk7

No trolling, just valid musical opinions.

[7goatmilk7]

@anguskahn22 well there is no need to be such a dick about your opinion. If you have a "valid music opinion", express it in a respective manner. Your not the one making the music.

[anguskahn22]

@7goatmilk7

I would, except for the fact the guy that made this named it the way he did, they're just powerchords, so he's either a balls musician and they're the most beautiful chords he can play, or he loves playing generic and by the books. Both of which are not good.

[TurkeyTuck]

@anguskahn22

I don't remember power chords being shaped like that at 1:02.

[anguskahn22]

@TurkeyTuck

Then your memory serves you well.

He's playing the top 3 notes of the extended power chord and losing the root note.

[Travis99079]

@anguskahn22 jealous.

[anguskahn22]

@Travis99079

Nope, my band makes much prettier chords :)

[pstlwhppd]

@anguskahn22 They aren't powerchords. Listen and/or look.

[anguskahn22]

@pstlwhppd

Your such a musician aren't you. Do you know what an extended powerchord is?

[jmh11471]

@anguskahn22 -.- they're major chords he's playing at the begging

[jmh11471]

@jmh11471 *beginning

[anguskahn22]

@jmh11471

do a power chord shape, then add 1 extra (extended) note where he is at the top, thats what it is.

[pstlwhppd]

@anguskahn22 ***You're.

[anguskahn22]

@pstlwhppd

Sorry grammar naziiiii

[pstlwhppd]

@anguskahn22 No problem. By the way, there should have been a comma after "musician" and a question mark after "you". Plus, they still aren't powerchords.

[anguskahn22]

@pstlwhppd

They're extended powerchords, i've said that.

[DerekAKimbro]

@anguskahn22 Its funny you say that because it is pretty. and you're gay for saying that. So am i. I love you, bye.

[KyleAtLarge]

@anguskahn22 .. those aren't powerchords lol.

[anguskahn22]

@KyleAtLarge

They're extended powerchords. What do you think they are?

[KyleAtLarge]

@anguskahn22 ... Extended powerchords? They're major chords, and he's playing the two open strings. Power chords are just the fifth intervals.

[SlappaDaBass18]

@anguskahn22 Those are actually minor bar chords. Lern2guitar.

[anguskahn22]

@SlappaDaBass18

Read comment below you for reference

[9393zach]

@anguskahn22 Lol you're an idiot.

[TheScorpionsfan]

its tori from mythbusters!

[divrack]

what is the trick to tapping the frets ? cant get mine to ring out

[rpmcalgary]

Good stuff, very pleasant on the ears :)

[TortoiseProductions]

Reminds me of Radioheads Subterranean Homesick Alien....

I love this and that song.

[MrSlim3ball]

Hang on guys i gotta take a phonecall, oh wait....

[UncleJohnSawbriar]

New agey and soothing sound. Very nicely done.

[SaladToppings]

Bravisimo!



[itatampa]

I likey!

[MrThePerson22]

Sounds like a really bad porno..

[brillodelagua]

@MrThePerson22 lol

[ARom16]

So what if it's simple? Simplicity is the key to brilliance. It's extremely tasteful and not nearly enough guitarists play tastefully anymore.

[4345ghee]

@jcoleman26491 nice trolling bro. nice trolling.

[jcoleman26491]

@4345ghee no trolling, the guy sucks

[brandoblues]

pretty kick ass dude

[TheFutureEVH]

I use the exact same effects! Do you also use a little swelling?

[snipersas]

bad

[KidDirtbox]

very nice. What phaser settings are you using.

[jcoleman26491]

if you have to use effects to sound good, then you suck. Effects are a way of hiding your suckyness

[h4ckb0x7]

@jcoleman26491 So in essence you are saying that the likes of The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Jimi Hendrix and Pink Floyd all suck??? I'm proud to announce that you sir are the village idiot!!!

[jcoleman26491]

@h4ckb0x7 HA, no, they dont use effects THE WHOLE TIME like this moron, there are ALOT of hendrix songs and zeppelin songs that dont use effects, even pink floyd. The beatles were a joke, so yea ur an idiot

[h4ckb0x7]

@jcoleman26491 I challenge you to name 1 Hendrix song where he isn't using some kind of an effect???

[jcoleman26491]

@h4ckb0x7 MORON, i said they dont use effects THE WHOLE TIME, LIKE THIS FUCKING IDIOT. HENDRIX DIDNT USE CHORUS AND WAH THROUGH THE WHOLE SONG. this guy is over doing it, he sucks, ive been playing for 10 years, and if you have to use effects to make chords sound good, then you suck, your worse than electronic music

[jcoleman26491]

@cathoderoy exactly, remove your comment because you were wrong, you have no prior knowledge of guitar technique what so ever, he isnt using effects selectively he is using them throughout the whole piece to make himself sound good, he sucks.

[cathoderoy]

@jcoleman26491 ...no, I misinterpreted what you were saying because I read some of the comments in the wrong order. I went back and read them in the original order, which can be confusing, because it changes in accordance with whether or not it's a reply...you didn't cite Hendrix, Pink Floyd, etc., as without talent, you were saying the opposite in response to someone else's misinterpretation...I admit it when I'm wrong...I still wouldn't call that guitarist an idiot, though...

[cathoderoy]

@jcoleman26491 ...sorry, it was a "moron" you referred to him as...once again, my mistake...and you were still wrong about him using effects on an entire song, considering this is not a complete song, as far as I can tell...and I like it, whatever it is...maybe a little boring and repetitive, but tasteful use of effects...it IS possible to do, which is why I brought up Todd in my original comment...he used the SHIT out of studio effects and created some of the most brilliant pieces ever...

[Niftified]

@jcoleman26491 Correction dude - the effects aren't just slopped on. Each one is there for a reason. The phaser is there because I liked the sound of it with the tap slides. The delay is there so that the chords bleed ore into the tapped slides. But as 4345ghee says, "nice trolling".

[jcoleman26491]

@Niftified no,  you are just a very untalented guitarist. You suck dude,
