The Ocean - (Led Zeppelin) Lesson

[jr51501]

you play very well

thanks for the lesson

thanks for the time you spent doing this!

great job (Brazil)

[MrMoneyTrouble]

@JPKblueser I like the way this lesson is set up. Thanks to you, I might actually learn to play this great song. The only thing that is missing for me is the complete set up for Guitar Rig. Be a pal and lay it out for us.

CAPO

[dragonzav]

Thank you so much! helped me

[UnOwInGeD]

what does r stand for

[JPKblueser]

@UnOwInGeD release. It's the oposite of a bend.

[UnOwInGeD]

@JPKblueser Dang, kept thinking of weird and wonderful things it could be, didn't look for the simple things, alright thanks.

[UnOwInGeD]

[2010koisa]

(jaiminhopagina) eh vc neh Andre? de tanto ver seus videos aulas arrisco dizer que eh vc abracao Fabio.

[JPKblueser]

@2010koisa Sou eu mesmo! kkkk

Abraços cara!

[Toddathon1]

Really appreciate your lessons. Thanks for your hard work. 

[Stewiiiie]

thanks aloooooot!!

[mystro810]

Id like to say, as a moderate level guitar player, that it is easier to follow licks in real time rather than in slow motion. so maybe you could break down the solo (especially the 2nd one) into real time licks and just pause in between so we can learn each lick and then past the whole thing together... overall great lesson though

[JPKblueser]

@mystro810 ah. I see your point. Lately I've being doing the lesons in a slightly different way (check Highway to Hell, for example). Does that way works better for you (broken into sections, fast playing followed by slow playing)?

[helldiver0666]

awesome, thats how ive been playin ocean too thanks for confirming I had it right :>good vid

[RJF888]

Really enjoyed that best yet on this song

[snowfosho2]

I'm confused.... In the solo part the tab says 7b9, but then you are on the 5th fret, and when it says 15b17, you're on the 13th fret...

[JPKblueser]

@snowfosho2 Well... You are talking about my index finger, but the one that gives the note is always the last one that is pressing the string. The others are just holding the string for additional strenght. 7b9 is a full bend on the 7th fret (reaching the same note as the 9th fret). Same goes for the "15b17". :)

[Haydog199]

If you make more videos...your a boss

[DrFeelgood471]

it's something weird in the beginning of the solo part, 7b9 ?

[JPKblueser]

@DrFeelgood471 A full bend on the 7th fret (reaching the same note as the 9th fret). :)

[DrFeelgood471]

@JPKblueser ah, got that, thanks !

[JPKblueser]

@DrFeelgood471 No problem! :)

[ChorltonM21]

3:33 to 3:40 you nailed Tony Iommi's clean tone off Sabbath 1

[JPKblueser]

@ChorltonM21 Hehe. Thanks, I guess? :P

[TheHoldenMacroch]

What guitar are you using?

[JPKblueser]

@TheHoldenMacroch Epiphone Les Paul Standard.

[AAAAtugboats]

thanks that was way more helpful than tabs

[kevin99291]

you are using the wrong chords in second part

[GGuyerer]

i hear a lot of static from your amp. Are you using a spider amp, mine seems to have that same problem?

[JPKblueser]

@GGuyerer Guitar Rig software, No real amp here actually :P

Every amp that is driven has some kind of hiss though.

[chojinkid]

do you have a wah kicked in?

[JPKblueser]

@chojinkid The wah is turned off all the time (except when I'm using it).

That trick only goes for the studio solo of "Whole Lotta Love". He didn't really do it that much.

[oldGnRrocks1]

great tutorial on the whole song!!! neds way more that 20 thousand views!!

[soloben2471]

great tutorial everything was perfect! except one thing thats the fills on the riff you say its a 14 14 double stop its actually a little major chord 12 on e 13 on b and 14 on g slide down

[JPKblueser]

@soloben2471 Are you sure? That would be a... C chord. Have to try it....

[soloben2471]

@JPKblueser Yea sorry i realized after starting to play zeppelin again after a few years i was wrong haha

[MrThankYou0325]

@JPKblueser YOUR BOTH WRONG, ITS AN A MINOR CHORD, with that fingering. the three notes he suggests are ace that is a minor triad. However I think your double stop sounds way more correct than his a minor triad. Excellent tutorial, Thank You.

[JPKblueser]

@MrThankYou0325 Oppps. lol. My bad. A minor, that's right. For some reason I was thinking about the relative scale xD

Thanks! My pleasure!

[snowfosho2]

Hi ! I'm planning to buy a Les Paul - Someone who can tell me if Standard or Traditional is the best for me if I want to play Zeppelin stuff ? Great lesson, btw (y)

[JPKblueser]

@snowfosho2 Both are really nice guitars. You can't really go wrong with either.

Just for a reference though: The Standard (from 2008 onwards) is chambered and the Traditional is weight-relieved (not sure if you know that).

[dangoombie]

Dude, thanks for the lessons, please keep them coming... Best on the web... Don't know how I'd learn to play without them

[Guitar56561]

Best lesson on YouTube thanks a lot!

[JPKblueser]

@Guitar56561 No problem! :)

[guugeli169]

Thank you! This vid helped a lot! Tough i have been playing for 8 years now... But my problem was that there wasn't any tabs in my country (all of them had been removed from internet), and I get really frustrated if i study everything by ear... So when i watched this vid, i got everything down! :D i mean to play like jimmy used to play it live. It's little different, but i had to work on that cos i'm the only guitarist in our band, and we are playing this... Man, that was one unclear message! :D

[guugeli169]

@guugeli169 and sorry for my bad english...

[JPKblueser]

@guugeli169 You are welcome! :)

Rock on!

[HeTheo]

@guugeli169 I'm french, and all of their tabs have been removed too, so thanks a lot JPK!

[elchavez]

thanks man...

[RomanSkateboarding]

Thank you so much!

The lesson was awesome and I´ve already learned a few parts of the song but my amp kinda broke when I played the main riff :(

[pedrovidal12]

thanks!

[porim3]

Hey dude,this is my favorite song of them! this song rocks a lot [espcially the second solo] and you played this so well! I learned everything because of you! really,thank you! you're really really good =) kisses

[Plastikage]

Man thats the best lookin epi standard ive ever seen/heard....

[gordongeekstad]

@JPKblueser thanks for taking the time for a lesson. I've always played the low c in the original riff with my ring finger, the e bfore it with my middle finger. ALwyas felt better and I feel like I have more control on the note. (never did the slide down tho, is that a live thing cauz it doesn't do it in the song, Jimmy is doing some palm mute rythym it sounds like)

[fuelsmell]

I can´t see (hear) if you´re out of time, bacause I´m not that musician...but

I learnt to play , one of my favorite songs from my youth, The Ocean, like you do, and this is absolutely great for me. Thank you man.

[gage816]

Great lesson. Spot on. You nailed it.

[MrCecilbag]

killer lesson man really great job, im subscribing right now

[mamababsi]

Hi...

Tuning?

[JPKblueser]

@mamababsi Standard tuning :)

[ThrashRoC]

i play now the second part of the solo and ITS GREAT , i mean pages solos are little compositions in the song its fascinating how this brilliant music works , and this tasteful little overdubs .

i know why page has not so much records after zeppelin , because he gives ALL he got to us !

[ThrashRoC]

you ROCK man !!

[Cedante90]

Thx m8 was a great help! Led Zep. forever!

[TheStormtrooperrr]

[FlashmoreGash]

[ThrashRoC]

[ThrashRoC]

[snuffy129]

I just filled the cup.

[snuffy129]

I Just filled the cup.

[TheMuhd85]

hi may i know what overdrive did you use?

[JPKblueser]

@TheMuhd85 Guitar Rig simulating a one channel Marshall tube amp. No overdrive used other than the amp's saturation. :)

[Ledzeppelin7788]

would you happen to have the tabs to this

[JPKblueser]

@Ledzeppelin7788 Sorry for the late reply :P

It's on my website. Link on my channel :)

[kaymansolo]

@JPKblueser

Hi, sorry but i dont undestand the beginning of the solo tab.. I think in the video you dont use 5 , 7b9 frets , the fingers 2 and 3 are in the following frets to the finger 1, that its in 5 fret...ist wrong? sorry, but my english is bad im spanish, an sorry im a very bad guitarrist (learning)

Great lesson.

[JPKblueser]

@kaymansolo Hey. Sorry for the late reply =\

No... Actually, the finger on the fret 7 is the one that gives the note. The others just give the strenght for the bend. 7b9 means that you have to bend the 7th fret until it reaches the pitch of the note on the 9th fret. Does that make sense?

Write back if you need more help. :)

[dave7219]

I don´t wanna be a jerk, but you are out of time since the begging.. especially on the 0:21 min. Nice lesson, but a song is not a decent song out of time.. sorry.(who am I anyway?)

[JPKblueser]

@dave7219 Sorry for the late reply mate... :P

I didn't see your comment before.

No problems. I know what you mean. This video is kinda old. The timing is really off. Not sure if it was the playing or bad edition (synch). But anyway... Yeah. It's off.... I guess it's not that important, though. :)

[MultiPowerage]

@JPKblueser I love all of your lessons!!!! You make them so easy to learn!!! what kind of les paul are u playing?

[JPKblueser]

@MultiPowerage Sorry for the late reply =x

That's an Epiphone Les Paul Standard :)

[JacobCoventry]

@dave7219 Jimmy Page's timing is all over the place and I don't think it would sound right if it's tight and in time

[BaronSalsa]

im playing this at my skewl talent show thursday i learned the whole song rite here awsome job :)

[JPKblueser]

@chasmer18 You are welcome! :) OK. I'll see what I can do :)

[greatfelixo]

this is cool im gonna do my own shortened version of the solo just because its kinda hard to remember all of it

[soccerman5782]

Best guitar lessons on youtube no doubt!

[MontesdeGibson]

FInally someone who puts tabs while he/she plays!

Kuodos dude, perfection at its best :D better then Jun himself, and thats saying something!

[xZeppelinrulezx]

do u repeat the parth in the solo at 8:21

[JPKblueser]

@xZeppelinrulezx ( Sorry for the late reply =\ ). Well. Actually yes. You have to remember that the higher phrase is played over the repeat (look at 5:57). So, you either make an overdub or you can just play the other phrase and forget the repeat. You can also play the "live" variation that I showed at the end of the video.

Hope I could help :)

[jclebel24]
