This Boy - Beatles

[AntiquatedPoet]

Thank you for showing us this song. I had always wanted to play it. You missed the most important thing though ... you should've displayed how one strums this song. As you can tell, the strum is very unique and different than other songs. I almost have it down, but can't seem to keep up on speed just yet.

george's part jajjja xDD

[blackbirdfly17]

Acoustic guitar aré the same chord?

[stecklein7]

Like I have said before....I don't play guitar. Can't read notes, but I have always been able to sing them and played coronet by sound back in the day. I appreciate music. I LOVE your guitar playing immensely. I could listen for days on end. Thank you so much for displaying your talent. It means so much to me and many others. words cannot express how much I dig this. :) you have NO idea. :D

[GuitarMan5271]

Hey PT do you think you could cover the Beatles song She Loves You i cant see that on your channel. 

[AZChrisK]

FANTASTIC professional lesson. THANKS!

[roflmao791]

oh and that chord for the beginning is a Bm7 going to a Bm11 and back to a Bm7 for anyone who wants to know what it's called

[roflmao791]

OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH YOU JUST MADE MY DAY, YOU ARE THE FUCKING MAN .

[tbird2591]

Thanks for another great lessson. The chord at 4:15 of your video is a D 9th. Root is on the the 5th string. Beatles used it a lot, Another Girl comes to mind, but you are right , James Brown used it in every tune.

[privettricker]

@tbird2591 Off the top of my head, it's also in Things We Said Today ("...when we're dreaming...")

[mstrammd]

@privettricker Lots of 9th chords in "Till There Was You" too. C9, F9, D9, and a Db9 thrown in on the solo. That is a really cool song, by the way. I love the jazzy chord progressions they used on it.

Nice job on This Boy! The octave stuff George did at the end of that song as you nicely demonstrated sounds very jazzy for such a simple technique. He also used that same technique when playing John's "harmonica riff" on Please Please Me when the Beatles played that song live.

[roflmao791]

@tbird2591 yeah that's a fun chord, you can substitute it for the dom 7th , which is why he goes to D7 the second time around . it's a nice thing to add into a 2 5 1 when you mess around with jazz tunes

[riverdale9999]

Hi. I found your channel a few weeks ago and since then I've spent all my evenings watching and trying to play along. Your skill at figuring out guitar parts is amazing. I've been playing for 30 years but I can't do that. You are teaching me a LOT. Thanks! Keep the vids coming. And please keep doing explanations at the end like you’ve been doing lately. Oh, the chord at 4:15 is a movable 9th, root on A string. SRV made a career from that chord!

[TheMaddenfan123]

Did your Gretsch 5120 come with a case when you bought it?

[privettricker]

@TheMaddenfan123 Yes.

[marslife01]

9th are used a lot in Jazz music, the Allman Bros used 9th in "Stormy Monday" George was a person who liked Jazz Chords, fantastic cover by the way, you would make a great teacher.

[Evan42881]

You seem like a hendrix guy. Why no hendrix?

[privettricker]

@Evan42881 YouTube deleted all my Hendrix because of copyright.

[Evan42881]

@privettricker That sucks man, sorry.

[disda1n]

@privettricker That is one of the saddest things I've Ever heard. Ive always wished you would post some Hendrix ha ha, that explains it!

[IdolHans]

@privettricker not before I recorded them onto my hard drive usuing real player they didn't! I was lucky and smart to get all your Hendrix covers----Thanks PT!

[roflmao791]

@privettricker how come it deletes hendrix and the eagles but nothing else ? it's all under the same "for educational purposes" isn't it ?

[roflmao791]

@privettricker oh and one last thing, that lennon D chord is still just a regular D, it's just replacing the open D note with another F#, but it's not adding or taking away anything new, it's still R 3 5 .

[mike826]

My mom wanted me to play this for her...Thank You

[gal00li]

you are a born teacher ...there are some people who post that are rubbish...you are not one of them...how about "and your bird can sing"

[TheVasicist]

Yup, a D9. By the way, when you put your pinky two frets down on the high E string, it's called a D13 chord. That's in most James Brown songs.

[TheVasicist]

What a great bridge by John. It's funny how often their bridge section would make the whole song. Happens in No Reply too.

[cbarrett34]

called a D 9th

[westfield90]

Superb!

[TonyHickschick]

This is one of my all time favorite songs and I don't notice the bad editing.

[downhill240]

Thanks for the lesson!

[micdailing]

Have you been workin on Mister Banker Privatetricker?

[casualwailing]

NIce cover, PT. The end of the middle eight has my favorite "Lennon wail" - classic. Name of chord = D7add9. Wah-wah whenever ya get the chance, please.

[MYNAMEISIKN]

Awesome cover :) btw, @privettricker where did you buy that kinda rosed,red telecaster of yours, i think its called paisley red 68' Thanks :D
