I agree with the others, the tone is amazing. I love the the slide you do from the open C to the bar chord in the chorus, it's little touches like that that make it sound truly awesome.
It looks like you're picking the main riff. How are you muting the strings in between? That's the part I find most difficult. I can do the slides and transitions, but I'm having a really hard time trying to mute those strings while picking the two main notes.
@GozerTheGozerian When I do the main two notes I just pick the strings individually. It takes a while to get the hang of it but its well worth it in the end. I first learned Californication which is also picking individual strings so that helped me alot, try that and see if it helps. Or just continue to practice those two strings eventually your memory will retain how to do that.
Great tutorial but it got a little fast at the end lol. This helped me out alot, I hope you do more rhcp's tutorials in the future. Thanks for the help :)
this cover is something really special! you're not just playing the guitar, you "feel" it as welll! and that's something you can't learn in any lesson but yours is great as well! xD
Awesome. The playing skill is obvious, but what really impressed me is the great tone on all sections! Out of curiosity, what pickups/position are you using on that strat?
You have helped me a lot with this track and im really looking forward to play live. I would just think it would be nice if you had some tabs to sup with, cuz the solo would be quicker at easy'r to learn then. But thanks again. Your the best
thanks for the comments guys, for this john tone i was using guitar rig 3 running a marshall emu, gain at 9am, master at 3, bass at 9, mid at 9, high at 4, presence at 4, and a little of reverb ;)
Hey man, I love your cover, awesome tone. I bought me a vox vt too, but i can't find the right setting. Can you told me how you do it? maybe what a amp, effects and setting?
An amazing cover. Lots of soul, Frusciante is a great artist, and you did a really great job covering this song. Look forward to learning it when I get re-strung. Btw, what amp are you using?
Hey man, can you make a cover of Tear by RHCP ( from By The Way album ) ? This is my favourite song of Red Hots, and I'm sure that you will prepare a great cover :)
What's with all the people saying the lesson's not good. I think it's way better then any other lesson I found for this song. Finally someone who's able to play this song! I love it man keep doing your stuff! You absolutely own this.
@adriantrackssongs I think the lesson is awesome. You do every single step slowly and if people don't get it at once they can go back a few seconds and watch it again. I was watching all the other tutorials for Scar Tissue and didn't get it. Now I keep doing it all day long trying to play faster and faster and it works. Just can't remember how to play the solo parts but thanks to you I'll get that too... some time. Keep it up!
this be my favourite song to play ever. i often now just strum it all and mute opens. but i often play it with a jazz sort strum too and mute between normal strums. thats how i get my swing into it. sounds nothing like john or adrians cover here. but i love playing it.
i don't understand how you do the slide from e8-e10 and g9-g10 with a pick, ive only ever played this song with my fingers and i thought it sounded fantastic, this just blows my theory out of the water.... but when i play with a pick its atrocious... even when i mute the strings in between and strum all 4 it sounds brutal... wtf am i missing?
Perfect

Lesson's great,couldn't be much clearer than that!
magdga365 1 year ago

for that tone, try to get something like a marshall tube amp, so, guitar -> a lit bit of compression -> amp -> spring reverb
for the last solo using the same settings, just add a tube screamer ora boss ds1 (like john)
