All you guys giving lessons on YouTube are tuned to e flat then which is fine but no one bothers to mention it at the start. It's very hard to follow if your guitar is set up for standard tuning. It's a huge hassle to drop to e flat and expect to play without increasing the strong size to 11s at least. The bridge drops and the intonation is thrown off. The guitar really has to be set up for the e flat tuning. Of course if the guitar is set up for E flat then it's very difficult to play stuff
@pbstratocaster tens que meter na cabeça que quem escolhe os hobbies que tem é ele e se tu es um frustrado que nunca conseguido nada da vida nos não temos nada a ver
Com isso.vai mas é aprender a tocar e quando eu vir uns vídeos teus a tocar depois falamos
Yeah, Andy's so bad he's been invited to play lead with Jimi's band in front of 10s of thousands of people... maybe you should call them and let them know how much better YOU are...lol!
@pbstratocaster With all due respect, for those of us who play AND sing outside of our bedroom, this is a great way to play it, listeners cannot discern a mislocated 9th from a friggin Fiat, and they are wildly entertained.
+This guy has real credentials, millions know who he is....its ENTERTAINMENT, not surgery. This is one of the reasons songwriting sucks so bad today...a million technical shredders and nobody with the ability to form an entertaining verse, chorus, etc.
@08spoons I play many places, but not in my bedroom. Im also not very keen on shredders and technical stuff, where you almost forget what its all about in the first place: MUSIC. I like Ry Cooders "sloppy" way, and Scott Hendersons experimental harmonies outside the pentatonic scale. So far so good. My point on this issue is IF, I said IF he was trying like a million others to play "Little Wing" as NOTE FOR NOTE,,,,THEN it was a bit off. Thats all. ( I play Little wing on every gig ).
@pbstratocaster Well put, I had a feeling you didnt play in your bedroom anyways'!! No hard feeling, I see your a great fellow.
I kinda like the sloppy Hendrix myself.
I really believe w/ him, it was good songwriting first, guitar sexuality second. He could be really clean. Check out the dick cavett show where he sits in w/ the band and the have to kind of pick up and go w/ him.
There are a million stories about how he would pawn his guitars and when gig time came he had nothing!
@08spoons you should have stuck your ground - you were absolutely spot on with your comments! :) A guy claims to play this at EVERY gig - says there are multiple errors in the way it is being played here - but doesn't rock up with a better/more accurate or even similar version?!?! I'd be calling that one out right down to the wire ;)
@pbstratocaster stop trying to change the subject - way too transparent - and who's talking about changing this version? Not me - I want to see you put your money where your mouth is - you say this version is wrong, has "many" errors and is sloppy - I say you are completely wrong - now prove your point by reference to facts rather than opinion and then prove that you can do better. My money says you are unable to do either and you'll try to change subject again ;)
@pbstratocaster it's a million million times better than anything you could ever achieve - nice try though... As soon as you get around to posting something - fuck, ANYTHING - better get in touch - until then - you're just another saddo, trolling youtube - thinking he's the shit and but being COMPLETELY unable to prove it and getting ridiculously pwned by everyone he comes across - super, super sad....and no one is taking your criticisms seriously anymore - win! :)
@pbstratocaster oh and for the money shot - I said you'd try to change the subject again - and you absolutely did NOT disappoint - the worst part is - you genuinely and truly think you are in the right here...you don;t even get that everyone else now sees you fro the utter fake and loud-mouth that you are. I am actually embarrassed for you... :)
@pbstratocaster sounds to me like you're very scared - I'm with B5th on this - anyone can comment on the Mona Lisa - but if they start talking about technique and composition being piss poor - they had better have better technique and composition themselves. You're way out of your league in this thread, you should suck your thumb and stay quiet.
oh and I like the les paul video. That dude is a very good guitarist - where the fuck you get off saying otherwise is beyond me.
@guitarguy3502 thanks man - but best not to get involved - I'm just glad he's rubbishing me - if he liked my playing - I'd be hanging up my guitar for ever - he's even rubbishing my 1977 strat on my page...I think he has no life and is angry at the world :)
@BlackenedFifth just so you know - he's really rubbishing you on your page and has disliked all your videos - you might want to block him.. Never seen anyone that pathetic or sad before on Youtube!
@BlackenedFifth only just getting through all these - but fricking hell "My money says ... you'll try to change subject again"! you called that one right down to the letter! lols - I'd have given up here if I were pbstratocaster...this made me laugh my ass off - it's like watching Einstein arguing with a retarded kid :) thanks man
@BlackenedFifth Thanks, I try not to banter back and forth too much, it makes us both look ignorant, which I happen to accomplish very well on my own! Unless, of course, its about disco than the gloves come off LOL
@08spoons nah - people like to run their mouths off on youtube and the get upset when people call them out. I always find the best way to call their bluff is to get them to prove their point without going off on crazy tangents and challenging them to prove they can do better. you can't trust a guitar critic who cannot play; a real guitar player will rise to the challenge - our ego insists upon it! Then you leave the other people in the thread to draw their own conclusions. :)
@pbstratocaster Andy Aledort has transcribed hundreds of songs and was an editor for Guitar World and has written a 600+ page book of Hendrix song transcriptions which my daughter literally dissected and it did her a world of good. Check out Andy Aledort and the Groove Kings on Youtube and you'll hear some incredible playing. He's also in Dicky Betts' band and as stated in other comments, has played with Band of Gypsies, Jimmy's Band with Mitch Mitchell and Billy Cox.
@pbstratocaster it does not have "many errors" it's pretty much close to being note perfect for the recorded version-which Hendrix himself was never able to duplicate. . Just checked your channel and you've not uploaded anything better yet you play this at every gig? If you think that Andy is butchering this so badly that you have to post your disappointment here - then upload your note for note version otherwise - we'll take your comments with the pinch of salt they deserve :)
@pbstratocaster "is has many errors, and a sloppy way of playing it. Wrong notes several places." - this is utter rubbish. where are the wrong notes and who are you to call it sloppy? And calling people names? really? Hendrix couldn't replicate the recorded version - show me a live version by him that is note for note - don't just mouth off - prove the BS you're spouting - THEN
post YOUR version of it ( the one u play at every single gig) - put up or shut up as they say.
@pbstratocaster yup - thought as much - another back street wannabe guitarist who cannot deliver the goods. People will read this and see how totally full of shit you are. Thanks for proving my point in under 3 successive posts...
@pbstratocaster lols - keep telling yourself that - you sound like an old man who played in a band at high school and hoped to be something bigger than he is by now - somehow never quite panned out for you. You're full of rhetoric and abuse - the classic youtube troll - pros wouldn't make the kind of bullshit comments you make - and they certainly wouldn't try to qualify themselves by saying how great they are and how shit someone else is without at least backing it up.. sad...
@pbstratocaster you're kidding me right? You can't even answer the simplest of questions - keep changing the subject and then you have the audacity to ask a questioon? Wow!
I'm actually done with you - you've proven the kind of person you are quite well here - all your talk of "floating right hand" and "left thumb behind the neck" (whatever the hell that means!) You're not worth any more time - your posts speak for themselves...everyone can see how silly you are..bye! :)
@pbstratocaster lols - getting angry are we? I can play guitar much better than you - and I've been playing half the time...you have wasted your life you sad old man - stop being so bitter and learn to appreciate TRUE talent for once. You rubbish Andy Aledort -and now you're rubbishing me - and WE STILL HAVEN'T SEEN YOU PLAY !! LOLS you are such a loser - but I'll take you slotting me into the same category as Andy Aledort a massive compliment! Thanks :)
@pbstratocaster I can play it - learn to read the fricking posts you retard..I can't play it anywhere near as well as Andy Aledort...and if anyone (other than you you sad ingrate) needs me to prove it - I'm happy to record it and stick it up - which is a lot more than some tossers I know who claim to be "great guitarists with 35 years under the belt" ;)
@pbstratocaster given that you've decided to show just how childish you are - I thought I'd explain away the dislikes you put on my pages so that people know where they came from and the kind of petty little man you are. I've edited my descriptions so that people can see what happens when they disagree with idiot trollers like you - I'm sure that will put a smile on your face :)
@BlackenedFifth What puts a smile on my face, is first and foremost your playing guitar. Its some of the best Ive ever heard. There is no doubt about your skills, and I have to admit that Im up against a level I will never reach, ( all my years on guitar, and it doesnt sound near you) so, I rest my case.
About being childish, its you who keep comming back. I dont need to call you all the things youre calling me. My comments on your videos were uncalled for. You do a great job.
@pbstratocaster I have to say - I know you're probably being sarcastic here - but this is actually the truest thing you've posted to date. If you are being serious - I think it's great you are paying the other dude his due respect. It takes a lot to do that - and I think you are a much better person for doing so. Shredding isn't everyone's cup of tea - but you can't deny the little guy can play. I bet you're actually really good too - you should put up a video! :)
@pbstratocaster your comments on my videos were completely uncalled for. I'm sure you are being sarcastic now - but you couldn't have put up a more accurate post even if you were being serious!! Of course I keep returning to comment - you piss all over my profile and you expect me to sit back and take it? Not sure how it works in Denmark, but here, we stand up for ourselves. It's fine to disagree - but seriously - rubbishing a person's profile because you don't get on here?
@Stevemcsteve - that's because shredders using shredding as a way to hide the fact that they cannot play very well (see anything by Jacqueline Mannering here on youtube but put in earplugs first). Shredding is a useful skill - but it should be part of an arsenal - I know dozens of guitarist who can shred - and who can play little wing really well though...(I am not one of them though :(
@Stevemcsteve I think all kinds of guitar players have trouble with playing something that's not familiarized with, thats a pretty stupid statement, it would be like saying "Oh, a lot of blues players have trouble learning chicken-picking country-like songs", pls grow up, and stop comparing players and styles...
@RustyPease yeah i know thats why i said LOL cause i saw other people having issues with understanding that. Its actually just called D# anyway. (and or) means either way its the same thats what i was tryin to get across guess it didnt.
LISTEN UP! IF YOUR GOING TO WATCH THE REST OF THIS VID, LET ME GIVE YOU A TIP ON PLAYING THIS SONG WITH THE VERSION ABOVE! 1) learn how to do thumbed bar chords 2) they are a pain in the ass, but its ok. WHy? Cuz this version ur watching is actually harder and more difficult than jimis original. Jimi only hits the root note of each main chord first, then follows with other stuff. meaning throughout the song, u will only have to hit the root note, then switch fingering for pull offs etc.thumb up!
wow, if you're gonna teach the world to play this song, why not get the Fing notes right? boo! (he sounds right but is generalizing in many places, most people won't know the difference but after transcribing the intro just now, it's sad to see this)
to play this , a guitar player needs to first learn hendrix style , then try and play it, To copy it note for note never seems to work looking at most people on here trying to play it , however it gives people some idea i suppose .
He's in E flat because the song was originally played in E flat. If you can't tell the difference, in terms of tone, between standard and E flat tuning, you have some learning to do. E flat tuning gives you more of a "Fat" tone and is great for the blues. Hence the reason Jimi used it and lets not forget the greatest of all time "SRV" always played in E flat.
@kchappell65247 keep in mind, that "the greatest of all time" SRV played in E flat 'cause, thats what Jimi did...but then, imitation is the greatest from of flattery
That's why I have two guitars. I think retuning is too hard on strings. Can't imagine doing it with a floating trem. Much prefer a Kahler to a floating trem.
I'd sell all my body parts, that i don't need to play guitar, to be able to play this song as well as you. Nice lesson too btw, will get me a little closer to playing it (while keeping my body intact!)
You have to have hide as thick as twelve elephant hides to put up with some of the crap these morons throw your way. Don't let the bastards get you down, I like your lessons, keep truckin' man. Oh, just a bit of mirth, Hendrix didn't have a "pinkie". lol!
first of STOP speaking in fucking guitar and slow down ! people who are learning at home don't know what frets to hit if you say LICK. this is a amazing song... my favorite actually but this tutorial was useless
@declice or maybe your skills just arent quite good enough yet to play a difficult song like this if you dont even understand what he is talking about....
@declice I dont know what the fuck youre talking about, Maybe you could Do some FUCKING RESEARCH before you discredit this video? Its packed full of great guitar knowledge that has helped me a ton, maybe if you would learn to use google you wouldnt be so lost with this song. (PS. LOOK AT HIS FINGER PLACEMENT. YOU CAN PAUSE THE VIDEO.)
Love the Lesson Andy Aledort. Great stuff. Your on another Dvd I recently bought last year. Very advanced for a beginner that just knows a G or an A chord. That's why beginner videos are available I know. Andy's finger placements (chord arrangements) are always moving on the guitar while playing. Sounds great, great lesson.
Why?Tell me Why Andy? Why your trancribe of Castles made of sand in the magazine Guitar School December 95,is so different from what you play in you DVD Axis Bold?????
and Why you play in half tune in this DVD and jimi play in standard????
@walterschopp Indeed it is major:-) Listen and you will learn! If you listen to the recording you can hear a c# on the A chord (Tuned up to standard tuning, that would be the d on the B flat chord) And that is certainly a major chord.
@Esbenmad I listened all (good) versions of this song (Hendrix, Vaughan, Mayer, Lister,...) and never heard a major third on the transition chord from Bm to Am ! It's a pure chromaticism as Jimi did on many other songs.
The major third don't mean anything right here, no jazzy tip !
Its just amazing, no body can play it like jimmy, its as if jimmy is giving a message only he could give through his instrument. Andy is incredible, but i guess everyone brings a differents feel
Why do people have to get into this who's better than who crap? Grow up and spend some time learning to play like the greats instead of criticising others.
@scottladoucheable I think you got me wrong, or I gave it wrong. He is a great strat player with tone and feel, I have dug his book "Jimi Hendrix Signature Licks", great one. He got me closer to Jimi Hendrix, but for the real thing, there's nothing but using your ear to transcribe how original Hendrix really played his stuff. And I'm not even close to the ballpark of Andy Aledort playing, he is the man.
I just wonder how Jimi's guitar always sounded like he had more notes on than mine did, and he had more fingers hehe I love how he makes the chords sound so spread out, and I don't know - just - so - full and different
All you guys giving lessons on YouTube are tuned to e flat then which is fine but no one bothers to mention it at the start. It's very hard to follow if your guitar is set up for standard tuning. It's a huge hassle to drop to e flat and expect to play without increasing the strong size to 11s at least. The bridge drops and the intonation is thrown off.

LISTEN UP! IF YOUR GOING TO WATCH THE REST OF THIS VID, LET ME GIVE YOU A TIP ON PLAYING THIS SONG WITH THE VERSION ABOVE! 1) learn how to do thumbed bar chords 2) they are a pain in the ass, but its ok. WHy? Cuz this version ur watching is actually harder and more difficult than jimis original. Jimi only hits the root note of each main chord first, then follows with other stuff. meaning throughout the song, u will only have to hit the root note, then switch fingering for pull offs etc.thumb up!

to play this , a guitar player needs to first learn hendrix style , then try and play it, To copy it note for note never seems to work looking at most people on here trying to play it , however it gives people some idea i suppose .

He's in E flat because the song was originally played in E flat. If you can't tell the difference, in terms of tone, between standard and E flat tuning, you have some learning to do. E flat tuning gives you more of a "Fat" tone and is great for the blues. Hence the reason Jimi used it and lets not forget the greatest of all time "SRV" always played in E flat.

@kchappell65247 keep in mind, that "the greatest of all time" SRV played in E flat 'cause, thats what Jimi did...but then, imitation is the greatest from of flattery

That's why I have two guitars. I think retuning is too hard on strings. Can't imagine doing it with a floating trem. Much prefer a Kahler to a floating trem.

Love the Lesson Andy Aledort. Great stuff. Your on another Dvd I recently bought last year. Very advanced for a beginner that just knows a G or an A chord. That's why beginner videos are available I know. Andy's finger placements (chord arrangements) are always moving on the guitar while playing. Sounds great, great lesson.

B flat is NOT major !
walterschopp 1 year ago
@walterschopp Indeed it is major:-) Listen and you will learn! If you listen to the recording you can hear a c# on the A chord (Tuned up to standard tuning, that would be the d on the B flat chord) And that is certainly a major chord.
Esbenmad 1 year ago
@Esbenmad I listened all (good) versions of this song (Hendrix, Vaughan, Mayer, Lister,...) and never heard a major third on the transition chord from Bm to Am ! It's a pure chromaticism as Jimi did on many other songs.
The major third don't mean anything right here, no jazzy tip !

If you want to get a clue of Hendrix' playing then listen to the original and learn it by ear yourself, I'm sure you can do a lot better than this.

@scottladoucheable I think you got me wrong, or I gave it wrong. He is a great strat player with tone and feel, I have dug his book "Jimi Hendrix Signature Licks", great one. He got me closer to Jimi Hendrix, but for the real thing, there's nothing but using your ear to transcribe how original Hendrix really played his stuff. And I'm not even close to the ballpark of Andy Aledort playing, he is the man.

oof!!! howz anyone gonna answer that haha
I just wonder how Jimi's guitar always sounded like he had more notes on than mine did, and he had more fingers hehe I love how he makes the chords sound so spread out, and I don't know - just - so - full and different
