  • Speaking as a guitar teacher and 30 years player, I would suggest you spend more time showing the positions more clearly and demonstrate the strumming in details ncluding which strings are muted.

  • jpt...............

    

  • Greenscreen, no?

    Nice tut, anyway xD

  • es justo lo q necesitaba, las tab de los versos que nadie enseña bien excepto aca!!

    

  • thanks pal, this is for me the most accurate scar tissue guitar sound lesson ive come across on you tube... if people complaining that u complicate things, just remember they searched this tutorial video of yours so that they can play which means they have no idea what complicated music theory actually sounds like.. i like ur lesson very much... cheers pal.. keep playing

  • jueputa gordo pelle no sabes una monda

  • this video its not for beginners, its more for people that know wtf he is talking about......

  • wrong rithm in the first riff... -.-

  • @reptameuck wrong spelling in the 2nd word

  • @njbengals85 3rd word retard

  • This isn't complicated he just actually knows theory. Learn it before you complain.

  • Moves mucho la guitarra, malo video

  • Thus further proving that John Frusciante makes music that cannot be played by one who cannot play.

  • he's not complicating, he's just speaking the language of music; learn theory first and stop being lazy, assholes.

  • he definately does complicate things man. jeez. talk about making a mountain out of a mole hill

  • It amazes me how people complain about how he supposedly 'over complicates things'. Being thorough in explaining every aspect of a musical piece is what makes this guy a good teacher.

  • a lot of shit talking about his looks coming from behind your computer screen where u wack off to your reflection while listening to scare tissue and wishing you could play it

  • Play the fucking song fag.

  • There's nothing wrong with the lesson, or the man....

    But something about him... Some thing just kinda makes me sick and pissed off. I don't know what it is.

  • @Flames649 the earings + weird glasses combo?

  • @Flames649 hahahahahha

  • this guy doesn't deserve to have seen the chilis "a few times" 

  • @oweenacow ...and you've based this on what?

  • @SnarePops his shit video..

  • Great video. I play a lot by ear so I lack knowledge of music theory etc..so i can appreciate all the knowledge! Thanx! Rock on bro \m/

  • This guy is the ugiliest, most pathetic, over complicating, cock sucking faggot i have ever seen, someone please take this lesson down....he is a prick

  • @MRUFC12345 What the hell is a scum like you doing playing guitar. JamPlay posted this for free for everyone to learn and the guy plays it pretty well. He might not have dumbed it down enough for you but he taught the song well and did not overcomplicate things. Leave the guitar behind and go be an ass somewhere else.

  • this just complicates it for new people :P, i just learnt to play by listening and finding the notes that sounded right, i dont even know the names of the strings

  • @Shan2809 you're awesome case closed

  • i just saved liked 7 min of my life and skipped to the parts where he actually played the song. i dont wanna hear all your shit. you talk about the unnecessary things and studder too much.

    your more boring than dirt

  • @Bpham0609 good for you

  • The most boring teacher on the Earth... Marty Schwartz RULEZ!!!

  • frusciante's sound is pure feeling and I do not see anything

    in addition you

  • What the fuck is PINKY ALTER DU LABERS ZU VIEL

  • @SpeedFreaak2010 pinky ist kleinste finger in der hand! :)

  • @Klymenos12

    DANKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • What the fuck is PINKY

  • @SpeedFreaak2010 you don't know what a pinky is?

    how on earth did that happen? lol

    it's your smallest finger :)

  • Are you playing it on rythm?

  • terrible.

  • you dont have no idea fucking moron xD...

  • Can i learn wat color ur strat is and is it an american standart?? luv it.

  • very thorough

  • Blasted onto the music scene in 1998?

    are you fucking kidding me? ever heard of Blood Sugar Sex Magik????

  • @000theUnforgiven000 damn youre stupid if youre not getting the sense of the sentence above.

  • you dont mute the middle strings, its a broken chord so you only play those two strings

  • That C he plays is called a 10th not like C 10th or anything but if yo count up the major scale 2 octaves, from C to that note is the distace of 10 spaces

  • finger picking makes this song sound so much smoother between the notes

  • nice manicure

  • Californication was 1999.

  • Thanks so much for taking taking the time and making the effort to make and upload this lesson. Very appreciated.

  • Good stuff bruh

  • muy bueno sacar tissue guitar

  • lol sounds like shit, you just pick the two strings not muting others

  • Comment removed

  • @DMachine999 yep name me a song to play and ill show u badayss pick control

  • Comment removed

  • best part of the video= the bricks on the wall slot together from both videos

  • @NukeReadyForLaunch Greenscreen

  • @NukeReadyForLaunch probably because its chroma keyed. but whatever

    

  • @NukeReadyForLaunch Probably cause its a green screen

  • could you repeat that 6:21 again?!

  • @1slite sorry bubzy

  • on the c5 power cord wen u slide down to the 10th wot is the strumming pattern??? does it go B string then A then B then to the lick?? or is it B and A at the same time?? or

  • released in 1999

  • Some mad nerd rage going on with this video, its a good lesson and if you don't know what he's talking about go play kazoo

  • what should my amp settings be for this song?

  • @ncaaoregon 11

  • seriously, i appreciate the lesson, but its hard to understand especially when he talks and plays at the same time, i have two ears but i can't hear you and the guitar at same time

  • he is an goood teacher you all need to practise

  • @cjbosco lmfaoooo

  • do u liv in michigan i want lessons from u!!!!

  • here is some constructive critisizm (cannot figure out how to spell critisizm)

    dont waste your time trying to explaine what chord it is and the details about the octaves most people looking at these videos aren't experienced musicians who whould understand what your talking about

    just say the string and the fret that you play it on dude!

    and by the way it should be a picking pattern between the fifth and second string not a strummed chord

  • @ilikepikles5  no see , john plays all the strings , (he strums all the strings ) but blocks the ones with his left hand which he does not want to produce sound

  • @barakiva I wonder how people can be so angry. And like, this is the NORM now, it's totally okay to be like this. What a craaaaazy place we live in. Btw smoke weed all day errday.

  • @danmdl at what speed? if u cant figure that out than you surely cant play it. and it does say lesson... and he does explain what he's doing.... you just suck i guess

  • @P5ych00 of course I cant play it... why in the world you guess i was looking at a lesson..... Oh sorry I fogot you were borned knowing how to play the guitar... my apologies... im embarased... sorry to bother you... really..

  • @P5ych00 no some people learn cetain things about the guitar faster than others like me i can mostly play any metal song and learn relativley easily but blues stuff like hendrix takes me days maybe even a week

  • Ehm great one man but i think ppl need the riff and the main part of this song

  • pelon hijueputa 

  • just cause you guys can't play guitar u cant blame this dude here, i eman its not the best lesson ever but if you can actually play guitar and have a little brain and patience u can learn it

  • hahhaa shut the fuck up... the title says LESSON....it doesnt say..."hey, look I can play scar tissue".

  • I dont kno whats wrong with all these A-holes, but the dude taught it right to me, I tried learning this song with tabs, and I couldnt get it, I saw this vid and I got it! so everybody shut up!!!!

  • thanks for this..  don't be discouraged by these stupid haters.

  • good videoXD!!!

  • When I play these chords the muted strings inbetween my fingers make a harmonic sound. Anybody have the same problem?

  • good job man =)

    can´t really be easyer.

  • Its not note for note but at least hes calling the chords by the proper names unlike a lot of tab wankers out there, I bet hes a classical player, very clean and soft touch with good theory.

  • i must say that............... He's a gay xD

  • good fuckin lesson bro

  • holy crap u guys are all crazy

    hes only trying to help.

  • sweet elements :P

  • thanks you are good!

  • can always fingerpick the song and great lesson thanks alot

  • i love the comments. that shit is hilarious

  • @cjbosco i hear you man!

  • sucks .

  • ...

  • dis s not as clear as other jamplay lessons

  • I like the way the guy plays but he's a bad teacher. He doesn't explain it well enough.

  • you are the best.

  • @ukajman

    no.. you aren't it's 3&5 then chorus then you go down to 8 and 10..

  • duudees

    don´t you see that it doesn´t make any difference for the scales on what part of the fretboard you are?

    (fret 8 on E = fret 3 on A)

    it´s absolutely the same thing, where you wanna play it depends on the habits of guitarist for himself

  • It does, the notes run more free higher up the fret board. that is why john plays it there

  • live john will play both ways

  • Hey Oweena why don't YOU show us how it is done ?

  • @garylex

    because i don't need to.

    you just have to watch john play the song... it's on 3 &5 then it goes into the chorus THEN up to 8 and 10...

    watch the professional play... you will learn.

  • Great explanation! thx a bunch man

  • fingerpicking is way easer than the way he plays it. its true that he doesnt explain it very well but give him some credit, he makes it look so easy when its not.

    btw i prefer this version

  • people should really stop posting and making tutorials that aren't right...

    this is close, but NOT how John Frusciante would do it... chords are ok, right hand is way off =)

  • thx!

  • kalla mela aBURRES

  • it doesnt have the twangy sound if you fingerpick it

  • you use you ring to pick the higher octaves...

  • playing the song STRUMMING it is way harder. as he explains, he mutes the string in between with his fingers.

  • @brotfdw and as he also explains is that hes seen the chili peppers live a few times and he seen john play it like that. haha

  • not harder... just sounds shittier slash lazier... but he does have the chords right he just cant play but he knows his shit.

  • Question im new guitar... How does he play this song so good without fingerpicking

  • there is no fingerpicking!!

  • good lesson, but FINGERPICKING?

  • wheres the finger picking? have you no talent man?

  • Fingerpicking????!!!!

  • best!

  • Californication wasn't released until 1999. John rejoined the band in 1998. I suggest you change the information you have posted.

  • can u play this exact tab on acoustic?

  • @Gavinizu yeah

  • u are awesome i love your lessons

  • good

  • good

  • when you arpeggiate you do a wrong pattern... (when you strum it it's right)

  • creeper McCpreeperson

  • Agreed.

  • i liked but it's a little confuse

  • is there a video of this guy for the solo?

  • i like that he makes tecnical coments. helps!

  • I see what you did there! XD

    aaaaaw yea!

  • It's supposed to be finger picked. You can also do it on the third fret of a higher string

  • Yeah but Frusciante doesn't finger pick live...maybe that's why he's not teaching it that way idk

  • exelent

  • You're not doing it right hauss

  • Wow
