Gregsguitars LICK OF THE WEEK Part1 (free lesson)

[McSoulMusic1]

NICE LICK!

[Tayplupe]

Thanks for taking the trouble to post-this is a great lick.

[baloons4satanists]

Chuck Norris got nothin' on Gregsguitars!

[gromshit101]

Another way to name this lick is Half Diminished arpeggio lick. You can take the root note of any dominant 7 chord and substitute it for a minor 7 flat 5 chord which contains the same notes as for instance a C9 or Em7b5 Cool and fun way to spice up your blues shinangins

[Budyguy222222]

Thanks very much for these licks lessons, Greg. Very much appreciated. A great service to many of us.

[1sevillana]

Hi greg, you got the cool licks, keep them coming .... You have opened a different door . I would like to buy a telecaster from you soon. Thank you

[ronardoni]

You Rock Greg !!!! wish to see you" live" let me know when you are in NYC

[bugabutu]

just wondering, is that nail polish on your nails?

[GregsGuitars]

@bugabutu NO!

[ShaggyDawg]

@bugabutu Hehe. You can always tell it's Gregor even before the camera zooms out. Not only from the great licks, but from the shade of the fingernails. :-)

[dino6888]

@bugabutu Who cares if it is

[OneFifthNative]

I know I'll annoy people by saying this BUT, if someone can't figure out the notes by ear then they really aren't going to be great musicians. I think this is accepted as the truth by everyone except those who are guilty of it. Ok, shoot.

[surfstomp]

Excellent: thanks for the lesson.

[MFJord1]

Hey grag,

You play realy good, how did you learn to play jazzy like that? Did you start playing classical and later play electric?, did you take lessons or did you learn it all by yourself?

cheers!

Cheers!

[GregsGuitars]

@MFJord1 I tried to figure out on my records everything wich was interesting (this was in the pre-Internet days....) - then I modified and changed the material with my own ideas

Hallo Gregor,

ich bin gestern zufällig auf ein Video in Youtube von Dir gestossen - Slabo Day. Grossartig, was Du da spielst. Ich bin begeistert. Hoffentlich kommst Du mal in die Münchener Gegend. Ich werde dann garantiert in eines Deiner Konzerte gehen.

Deine LICKS of the WEEK sind ebenfalls super. Endlich mal einer, der sie so präsentiert, dass man sie auch nachspielen kann.

Ciao

Peter

[Danthehorse]

very good of you to make free lesson Greg, thank you!

[jazzupjazz]

nice sound!

[cosimomazzotta]

grazie!!!

[juppheidi]

Sauber! Daß Du nun auch Lehrvideos machst, finde ich mal extrageil, vor allem wenn sie so prägnant und "griffig" sind. BTW, hübsche Paula..ist das die 2005er von letztens?

[IrishBog]

Danke from Sweden !!

This is wonderful wonderful stuff...... please please keep it up !!!

[symptom07]

That's what i was talking about when i asked you if you're gonna upload some lessons for us. I hate that lessons when people start talking, first finger, seventh fret. Just show me the lick. Nice and simple and very usefull. I'm proud that i subscribed you months ago. thanks

[86shay86]

Hey Greg, may I ask you a personal question? Which guitar players had the most impact on you as a young guitarist?

Because you have that unique jazzy style blues, which I can't relate to any famous guitar player.

I hope you will find the time to answer that...

Thanks!

[GregsGuitars]

I've studied lot Mike Bloomfield (in the beginning, he was my first Blues Hero), than Peter Green, B.B. King, etc). I've heard a lot of Blues rock too like ZZ Top, became more interested in Jazz (Larry Carlton, Wes Montgomery) Fusion (Scofield, Metheny). I've transcribed a lot and every time when heard a nice lick on a record I figuered out and tried to change it a little bit. Pus: I always tried to combine the stuff with my own ideas (very imprtant!). So, a mixture of this is the result

[bluesderek]

Kracher! SO und nicht anders muss man Online-Video Lessons machen! Kein unnutzes Gelaber, die wichtigsten Infos in den "Sprechblasen" und direkte Anwendungsbeispiele mit dem Looper ... klasse, mehr davon!

more please excellent Greg

[Juaniguitarra86]

Really cool lick, thanks for this.

[guillll]

Great ! I like the way you give us just what we need to understand the lick, but few enough to force us to figure out some stuff by oursleves. Like also your use of text boxes to avoid lots of unuseful talking. Thanks very much !

[GregsGuitars]

Thnaks, yes with these infos everybody should be able to learn the stuff. I don't like videos with long speaches either

[stubbyindexfinger]

This is exactly what I need! Thanks so much for taking the time to break down some of your trademark licks and chordal progressions.  It really helps. Looking forward to the next installment

[seite13]

Also ich geb' ja zu, daß ich mir deine Clips nicht anhöre weil ich 'ne Gitarre suche, sondern um dich spielen zu hören. ähem...

Deswegen finde ich es ganz toll, daß du auch noch die Zeit findest uns allen Lessons zu geben.

Habe mir neulich einige deiner CD's bestellt und höre sie seitdem rauf und runter.

Liebe Grüße, Olaf.

[ahhotdogg]

what model les paul is that?

[GregsGuitars]

Elmwood Bonneville 50 Combo + 2005 Gibson Les Paul Faded Part No Pedals used in this Video. Amp is new and complete stock. Guitar is stock but has a pair of Pickup-Covers

[CodyCEngdahl]

Wow!  Thanks!

You just made a lot of people happy. Including myself.

Thanks so much, Greg!

[seite13]

Hallo Gregor,

ich finde es ganz großartig, daß du dir die Zeit nimmst, uns allen Gitarrenlektionen zu geben.

Vielen Dank dafür!

Ich mag deinen Stil und habe mir letztens einige deiner CD's bestellt und höre sie seitdem rauf und runter.

Ganz große Klasse!

Liebe Grüße, Olaf.

[GregsGuitars]

Hey, danke!

[ociosu]

Lick of the week! Great to see you giving some free lessons on youtube!

Hope to see any of those tricks you often use, that sound somehow "out of scale". Don't know if it's the diminished scale, or chromatic passing notes...

Thanks again!

[Smoothtlknwhtboi]
