The Rob Chapman - "I See Shred People" Guitar Clinic

[mousielicious]

Is that Carlito? I spit in the face of people who don´t want to be cool...

[cortarelva]

Chappers is jammming with sideshow Bob!!

[THEEDGEOFIDIOCY]

and the next one shall be when? D:

[blephara]

Rob, correct me if I am wrong but are you the only dude who owns a guitar company but plays every other make under the sun???

[xTiLkx]

THE ROCK N LOCK

[JwylieGuitar]

chappers, give me a clinic in belfast and i will bring 100 people

[RobChappers]

@JwylieGuitar Book and pay me and I'm there ;-)

[JwylieGuitar]

@RobChappers I would but i'm just some randomer on the street :(

[DirtySlapadack]

Dan looked a little... Shaven. Has he had the chop or was I just looking at a dodgy angle?

[amevilee]

You know what mate, what you're doing for music is pretty damn amazing, keep it :) (there's your little ego boost for the day ;) haha)

[SulakvelidzeCustom]

All great Rob! Thank you for clinic! It was awesome!

It's good that you didn't put those "micro bands pieces" as they were... Not reaching our potentials, i should say :)

BTW:

I'm Victor (Gibson ES339 CS is my guitar, if you forgot my name), if anybody from clinic want to contact me, wright to me here, in you tube! It would be great to see others and may be meet in other times to have A FUCKING JAM! :)

[RiffCito]

Ok rob, I've heard you play this riff in several other videos, seems to be one of your favs, and now you gotta let us know where it comes from, or if you have made it yourself perhaps? It's at 1:24

[RobChappers]

@RiffCito That is White Rose from my album Bare Bones available on iTunes ;-)

[peteq1972]

Record fiving, the one at the end of the line should be a HIGH five :)

[ISN1P3DI]

:o was all that played on a blackstar ht-1? it sounds awesome

[PantomimeHorseMusic]

Mike Dawes is freaking epic.

[Adji87]

Looks like an awesome time was had by all!

[TEMPA01]

Hey Rob, any chance you could make a whole video on the bit that started at 4:50 - from the "fuck!" moment? the bit that starts at 5:18 - This is how you break out.... Well go on then, how do I break out?!?!? Show meeeeee pllleeeeaaassseee!!!

[RobChappers]

@TEMPA01 No sorry mate, nice people paid their hard earned money to learn my inner dark ninja secrets, that I learnt from years working on sessions or recording with top industry producers...

If you want to learn it either come to a clinic, book a development session or come to MonkeyFest ;-)

[RhodrynTRK]

@RobChappers Hey Rob. Do you have any video lessons that covers the important parts at 5:18 that you can buy? A video lesson about that would be amazing. Getting stuck in those "fuck!" moments do often make you affraid to improvise solos when playing with a group or infront of people :( I know TEMPA01 already asked but I'm wondering if you have any buyable lessons. Thanks.

[RobChappers]

@RhodrynTRK Yes dude, I have a whole syllabus about to unleash to my store ;-)

[RhodrynTRK]

@RobChappers Very very nice! \m/

[TEMPA01]

@RobChappers If you can subsidise my air fares from the little convict settlement called Australia where I live back to the mother land I would love to be able to sit with you in person and pay my hard earned to learn your ninja secrets. Even though my Aus dollar is worth church money in GBP!

I would look at a Skype lesson too but this social back water gets barely better than dial up internet speeds..... So basically I am fucked!

[radarTube]

great initiative lads

[BryceGuitarGlen]

Love the wee Jerry Reed bit

[patdavidmusic]

haha love it!

[demytje]

I was in Guildford this week :O

[ultimatekrabbe]

0:55 --> Awesome riff by mr. Dawes!

[yetikeeper]

Rob, If you ever come to Malta i will buy you beer and pizza

[coandca11]

I don't care about any of the garbage that has been floating around recently about you "selling out" or questioning if you're even a guitarist anymore - as long as you keep doing this kind of stuff you're a fucking legend man. Anyone that says otherwise clearly has no idea what kind of man you really are. Keep up the excellent work!

[gnrmanmatt]

how long do your clinics usually last chappers?

[RobChappers]

@gnrmanmatt All day, I don't believe in these two hour jobs ;-)

[CarloNRodrigues]

Woowww, just before watching this i was checking all my d ´addario packs for player points to see if i had enough for a really cool t shirt they have...just so happens to be the one Bea is using in this video. Seriously, that just blew my mind, hahaha. What a coincidence.

I really like Mike Dawes, everytime he shows up on your videos he impresses the shit out of me...seems like one brilliant guitar player from here, Chappers Rocks!! Over and Out!!

[alexisd3]

You are getting all your epic winning juicy guitar sound form that small 5 watt blackstar?

[Aerosmithrockr1]

Haha I've had the strap Bea was using for years. That..was my fist strap *tear*

[HshSlngngSlshr1]

I want to be the best guitarist I can be! but, I don't know a lot about theory, and don't want to spend my whole pay check on professional lessons! any suggestions?

[Kaaru]

@HshSlngngSlshr1

Spend as much time as you can playing to get your technique together and learn theory from YouTube. Also sort out your long term goals so you don't waste time.

[RobChappers]

@HshSlngngSlshr1  I have very cheap downloadable lessons in my store which cover areas that would help you ;-)

[MBvolcom92]

@HshSlngngSlshr1 You can get some pretty cheap and good books on amazon.

[raku10]

Rob, any plan to release the recorded video of clinics, for us can't attend. I don't mind paying a few bucks for it.

[AnOddMusician]

random question, it doesnt seem like youve been using your hufschmid much! whats up with that?

[RobChappers]

@AnOddMusician The Hufschmid is great... but I own many great guitars and I guess I tend to favor Chapman Guitars.

[AnOddMusician]

@RobChappers ah i see.

[willybumbum35]

get your bum bum up north mr monkey man!!!!!

[samanosukkia]

Awww, why the cut?

I really wanted to know how to break out! :,(

[guitarbog86]

love the jerry reed at 4:20

[stevieno2]

he's a nice chap ain't he

[neochase1]

Chappers, your totally cool!

[Pmichteinz]

don't suppose any of these would make it over to the states huh?

[RobChappers]

@Pmichteinz Book me and I will come ;-)

[bradas128]

Less than three.

[moss1transcendant]

Sir Rob did you find Bea in ireland wandering alone in the woods ? i have my suspicians about him . He looks like a Gelf to me !

I think theres lepricorn blood in him as everything he pick up shrinks in his hands .

p.s Gelf is a uncommon term for guitar elf .

[nikitofin]

i want to go!!! but i live in argentina :(

[Digideus]

Nice to see Nik Samson and Alex Lewis from Inner Fire learning how to play :)

[petdoode01]

i love rob, so glad i stumbled across him on here :) amazingly talented man

[golfer765]

i wish i knew about this D:

[motorhead1995able]

how the hell do u get that sound from the amp? is it the ht 20? do u use other effects?

[RandomGuitarist96]

Mike Dawes is such a fucking goid player :')

[Nickpatient]

Another reason for me to hate college is that I couldn't make it to this amazing clinic because of it. -.-

[jimmyhendrix42]

such an amazing day of jamming and having fun!! will definitely go to the next one!!

[OliTheGuitarist]

Ever thought about doing a clinic in the north eg Manchester or Newcastle?:D

[salisburysimon]

Oh man I missed something here! Will you be doing another one in Guildford or maybe, shock horror, further West?

[cderycke]

Great day dude

[zxkevkop]

0:01

A WILD MERLENE APPEARS

[WezCorrinUK]

Haha, looked like a load of fun :) Rather sad I didn't come now!

[lizrainsberrymusic]

Eeee this video is awesome. "Liz, what's your name?!" :D

[LifeLongGamer]

Absolutely epic, Such a shame that it was my sisters birthday. I guess i'll need to learn to drive so I can get to the next one :D

[fifolon]

Now that's what I call a guitar driven community! Keep up the good work Chappers!

[roccckkerrr]

chappers,

you should take this clinic to Spain Italy Portugal Ireland and Greece and perchance by some feat of miraculous economics fix the current financial state of Europe.

[coine3]

It was an awesome day! I'm definitely going to the next one, whenever that might be.

[RobChappers]

@coine3 Great to hear you liked it, as far as I know the next one will be in London in Jan ;-)

[RNAMUSICShortStShred]

Looks like fun, wish I was there!

[Metal22God]

the feeling of "Fuck!" :D

[AndrewMunroGuitarist]

I loved being right at the front, it was awesome! :D

[mapexdad]

Im at 0:00 and Im thinking go on then lets see what I've missed :/

[Sulcuscentralis]

You're a legend, Sir!

[shizzlinphil]

Hey Rob, you should try to come teach at MI or do a clinic at some point! Awesome playing :)

[Nugget312]

Bea has the same guitar strap as me :D

[RoathRipper]

could there be an instructional DVD in the offing?

[caloss2]

Love it Rob, even the little bits of insight on the vid are worth years of learning on your own

Chappers is made of win!

[RobChappers]

@caloss2 Cheers mate I appreciate that dude ;-)

[NickGuitarify]

Looked like a lot of fun, gutted I couldn't make it down. Next one aye :-]

[guitarmanicFIN1]

is this the sort of thing for shredders or is it to guide you on your way to shred-dom?

[RobChappers]

@guitarmanicFIN1 The shred thing was just a play on words from a famous film "I see dead people", it was/is a clinic for all styles and levels based around the three awarenesses of rhythm, melody and phrasing ;-)

[thefretboardmagician]

I wish I was there!

[dahudge14]

The monkey Lord gathers with his monkey minions. And much shred was to be had!!!

[FlyingLawnMower123]

Rob, you are so awe inspiring that you make diarrhoea spew out of my penis.

[RobChappers]

@FlyingLawnMower123 Ha ha thanks... I think.. ;-)

[guitarmanicFIN1]

A song that would be absolutely brilliant to do at one of these would be crystal ann by annihilator!

[shreddy412]

I recently taught a modal theory clinic. You inspire me buddy. :)

[IAmLiamF]

Nice!! Looked like lots of fun!! Wish I could have went :(

[metalicman57200]

AWESOME !! would have loved to be there but I live in France

[kristophize]

You're the man!

[LoganCannonGuitar]

1st comment!!!! ROCK ON SHRED PEOPLE!! \m/ \m/
