Justin Shekoski from Saosin, "Collapse" Guitar Lesson

[x1Fender1x]

Bill hicks fuck yeah.

[TheBloodEagle27]

I didn't understand the intro... 5-7-9-5?? In which string?

[Ha11on2]

@TheBloodEagle27 5-7 on the A string, 9-5 on the D string.

[lucadepu]

terrible lesson

[humblyshyt]

@lucadepu why you say that?



[lucadepu]

@humblyshyt he barely knows what he's doing. he doesn't say what the scale for the song is, he doesn't tell you scale grades, but merely 7-5 and a bunch of that stuff. no emphasis on the technique or theory, so overall it's not a really goo lesson.

[cammoronx7]

@lucadepu you dont have to get into all of the technicalities of theory to give a good lesson, im sure he knows about it, but the majority of the people who are going to watch this video do not. im glad you know theory, but just because you do it doesnt make you the supreme overlord of guitar technique so dont diss on someone who is more than likely way better at it than you are

[lucadepu]

@cammoronx7 i'm not "dissing", ae you serious? i just said it's not a good lesson. sure it hits the "decent" bar. but this probably is among your idles, so wow i'm dissing so it's ok to talk mad shit. whatever man.

[cammoronx7]

@lucadepu you said he didnt know what he was doing, that seems like an insult to me my man. i didnt mean any offense in my last comment so im sorry if it sounded like i was.

[lucadepu]

@cammoronx7 yes he doesn't know what he's doing, for real. he doesn't have any of the theory down to me. he's still capable to kinda teach you how to play, tho he doesn't enphasize on parts hat should be enphasized more. overall i'm not dissing

[Mabanshi]

@lucadepu Theory is useless tbh.

[lucadepu]

@Mabanshi said francisco tarrega, i guess? get a grip

[Mabanshi]

@lucadepu So you like Francisco Tarrega's music ?

[lucadepu]

@Mabanshi yes. but moreover i enjoy yepes

[Mabanshi]

@lucadepu I see

[snivage]

What's the ending song?

[StringEffect07]

@snivage

It's "Move Slow" by Saosin themselves,...

It's the bridge part in particular,...

[JrodLee701]

I broke a G-string fingering A minor

[jahkoz]

I met Justin in 2006 at a show in NYC before they got on their tour bus. Nicest guy ive ever met.

[Karnivool09]

'listen to bill hicks' hahaha nice.

[Radderz95]

Thank fuck Im double jointed! Love this song and the album

[rockerbander1]

beautiful set up by the way



[powdertoastmn90]

i will never play guitar as good as you, own a guitar as cool as yours, or have awesome as hair as you do. but dammit i will always own your music. :)

[rockerbander1]

@powdertoastmn90 you can always play as good as him just practice like he did for all his life

[kadejah19]

rape me please.

[somecrazyyrunner]

also, the chorus harmonics are very similar to that of the chorus their song Seven Years

[somecrazyyrunner]

he's a very under rated player. he's extremely talented

[SaysNapoleon]

Despite the fact that I have a low tension span when it comes to guitar, I spent the time needed to learn this guitar part. I almost have this song down good.

[DanD3vil]

Will you make a 'how to do a guitar spin' tutorial? (:

[TsReDLiNe]

This song is amazingly fun to play. You play the guitar extremely well Justin. Love that Ibanez too. Gonna get me a RG prestige some day for sure.

Keep rockin Saosin! You guys are amazing!

[dimeowns100]

Ok, seriously. gear. porn.

[szpaqus]

I don't need Saosin now! I just want to listen how Justin is playing his guitar. His hands are dancing! I'm in love... xD

[MegaVanessaalvarez]

Beast. This video helped me allot c:

[SweetAngie143]

Uhmm, I'm a little confused at this part:

Intro-

[D string, Open, open] [G string, 7] [D string, open] [G string, 7, 9]

Then

[D string open] [G string, 10, 9] [D string, Open] then the tail.

But a key is somewhat missing I think.

It sounds like, intro, then this: [D string open, 10] Then the tail. It goes just before the tail.

[F3DR]

@SweetAngie143

He dosent say exactly what he plays

[yeahdude1]

@SweetAngie143 What you're looking for is a 5 on the G string.

[Sum41kills]

What guitar is this

[pbWebb92]

@Sum41kills some sort of Ibanez RG model, not sure which

[baobaoloveful]

@Sum41kills it's an Ibanez RG. Probably the 350MZ model :D

[TeamTripYoBitch]

posted on my birthday :D AH! thanks for taking the time to make this! I learned it correctly! big difference! cant wait to see you live again!

[IronJaaws]

The Bill Hicks reference on your guitar is fucking dope

[riks27]

[mirtamorphosis]

[ground41]

what song that the video played at the ending?

[XavyIRRE]

@ground41 The solo that comes out at 11:58 is from a song called Move slow it was never really released but it came out on NCIS and it is on the NCIS soundtrack he has a vid up on how to play a part of the move slow solo. And the one at 12:24 im sure you know is Its far better to learn

[GrandblueSkies]

[xMasterxRazorx]

Tell Alex to get off his butt and do some drum videos!

[azncoolz]

ive been playing 5 years and i took a few monthes break and now this is tricky. saosin riffs are tricky

[bezakChaos]

[PeanutButterGtr]

OMG Beau should post lessons as well!!! And you should BOTH do a 'Voices' lesson as well... together. :D

[merksperk2]

Alex should post some drum stuff or maybe do a drum solo. That would be freaking delicious.
