Jimi Hendrix Style Lick - Watchtower

[IncorpMusic]

hey, which strat model is that? :) it has an awesome sound

[Jabongify]

Hi robert do you perform any pull-offs at all or is this straight up picking note for note?

[rotren]

@Jabongify Picking every note.

[Jabongify]

@rotren i guess i gotta keep practicing then till i can get it down smoothly! thanx robert you're a great guitar teacher keep up the good work :)

[tmoench1116]

I think you can tell by Jimi's tone that his action was high.

[Stabiiliize]

everytime i try to merge this into one of my songs it gets offbeat. why?

[rotren]

@Stabiiliize Could be because you are starting the lick at the wrong spot.

[JJoneEIGHTY]

the action on that guitar look really high!

is that how you prefer it?

[rotren]

@JJoneEIGHTY Well it is a balance between great tone and playability. Higher action means no fret buzz, but i's harder to play. Hendrix had very high action too, from what I have read. I like being able to hit a string really hard sometimes, without minimal fret buzz happening. Plus, high action will make your fingers stronger!

[vincentheron]

@rotren how do you adjust the action higher?

[rotren]

@vincentheron With an Allen key. The Allen screws are on the saddles on the bridge. Turn them clockwise and the action gets higher. See /v=ZfuP4yLesG0

[vincentheron]

@rotren what about innotation or whatever that is called? will it mess it up?
