[RedBladelll]

[Qoooba95]

[Pedrocb]

@Qoooba95

(Nope, Chuck Testa) Half step down.

[50L0NE]

came that vintage look naturally or is it a custom fender?

[PwnYouAtSoccer]

To be honest, I didn't really care how to play the song. I just clicked the link because I wanted to get a better look at the guitar...

[nicolhaidi]

5:08

Y U NO USE PINKY?!?!

[Greghannonmusic]

This is one of the best informative lessons on youtube ,really good insight . the bassline with the guitar/chords sound really good on its own. 10 out off 10 i wish all lessons on yotube were like this one.

[hockeyMVP4life]

umm is your quitar tuned down a half step?

[kittenkilla123]

This guy has taught me alot, keep on keepin on Andy :)

[JesterxMailman81]

[zingmatter]

[MadddSkillzzz]

[Olinolan190]

@JoaoAndre001

<3

[PIGd3stroyer]

ANDY FUCKIN ALEDORT. The man.

[a64tbird]

i like beat up guitars but that one looks dirty---wash your hand before you play!!!

[paranormalvideo]

Really, really irritating to not inform us right from the beginning that you are NOT tuned to E.

[JJnny]

@paranormalvideo

if you don't know Jimi tunes down a half step I'd suggest trying the banjo!

[paranormalvideo]

@JJnny Golly, You're right, I should quit. Isn't this a guitar lesson video? I'm not as smart as you. Many lessons & backing tracks on youtube don't drop down to the original recording but just transpose it. From an instructional point, it's a no brainer to start with the tuning at the beginning of the lesson. My comment was at least meant to be constructive feedback on the instructional value of the video itself. Yours was just meant to be snarky & condescending. You were successful. Thanks.

[JJnny]

@paranormalvideo

Well the banjo only has 5 strings so I think it would be easier for you.

[teckscape]

WHY DONT YOU TELL US WHERE YOU PUT YOUR FINGERS?

[youngfoxx1]

and old homeles looking guy playing an old beat up guitar xD

[superbandace]

anyone think he kina looks like ace frehley?

[gunsnrosescovers]

Nice

[gunsnrosescovers]

Nice

[Rob42dXb]

i love the missing 7th fret

[stratcat250]

@Rob42dXb

If you notice all the dots from the ninth fret on up seems to have been replaced.

[KisGili3]

that guitar is a Road worn or what?

please help me!!

[Commiteee]

@KisGili3 You mean the roadworn series? Nope, they don't make them like this, this is legit played and beat up over years.

[punkrockefeller]

dam man, wash that guitar.

what'd you do, play in a coal yard or something?

[MTAlupyourass]

Andy Aledort is a cool cat.

[powerbandman]

He may have said it on the 1st track, but he's tuned down 1/2 step to E flat, as Jimi usually did.

[smacman68]

Check out the Strat used by Glenn Proudfoot if you want to see beat up old Strats that sound great. I think his is a little over the top, but cool. Vintage is the only way to go!

[Johann759]

ARE THE whole Songs od The Whole Slbum on the DVD???

[Dogheadj]

I love vintage Fender guitars and amps, and collect them, as well as play them. This piece looks so greasy and grimey, and missing fret markers as well, that I don't know I'd make an offer on it.

[september11wasCool]

Whats the intro song to the video??

[JoePerrys1fan]

@september11wasCool All along the Watchtower by Jimi Hendrix

[kinoboy94]

@september11wasCool the best song you will ever hear.

[stratcries]

What's with the advertisements? Isn't Televison poups enough?

[PlayItAgainJohn11]

Cool licks dude - keep jamming and teaching. Awesome!

[JackisWhack123]

cool video bro

[101pete101]

I didnt know Tommy Chong did guitar lessons for Guitar World.

[dwijnh]

7th dot inlay FTW :D

[SuperDsffdsf]

relic guitars rocks!!!whats the name of the pickup?

[SuperDsffdsf]

relic guitars rocks!!!

[arnoudgitaar]

Yep, it was a sigaret paper (joint) over the combe.

Thanks for the lesson, display, show.

There is always something you "over looked"....

Play On Man!!

[THEonlyZACKGORT]

[05rsx]

[JimiPlaysWoodstock]

[scottladoucheable]

Serious mojo in that strat fellas.....

[zoomerx]

That's one huge termite hole on your B fret!

[chickenman120]

[MaharishiMahaYogi]

Fuckin commercials!

[ivanbravo347]

Fuck Google Ads !!!

[Underhide1]

wow what guitar is that it sounds freakin amazing

[underarmorfreak2]

@XTurboX10 all along the watchtower

[JFrusciante12]

your great

[SaypheZonE]

You can tell who really plays guitar by how beat up it is. None of that relic shit they have now!!!!

[nestorlopez85]

does anyone know the tabs for standard tuning?

[grzana2429]

@nestorlopez85

Tuning half down or standart doesnt matter, you can use same tabs, or if you\re ha;f way down, and want to play in standart, play 1 fret above

[hipyaboyya]

@nestorlopez85 there the same chords just a half a step up, as i am assuming that this is in e flat.

[MrBob10]

what about actually naming the frets instead of going: so it´s ..bla bla bla

from this perspective it is not that easy too see.

[BlakeDaFish]

@MrBob10 I hope you've gotten better at recognising chords since this comment... its very clear what he's playing. If you can't quite see, figure it out by playing within the box he's playing in. But don't ever complain when someone puts up a quality lesson on a great song. That's a skill you need to develop... and a pretty basic one at that.

[m1garandisthebest]

That is what a guitar should look like:)

[Nickdiaublow]

I like guitars really shyney and not worn but its still preatty cool

[gunn2040]

@m1garandisthebest yeah it looks like the rory gallagher

[grizzli1994]

perfect tone !!

[blackskullbass]

if anyones a bit confused, its Eb tuning

[Shambles940]

AH HA!!! thank you!

[jimiydoorshamelech]

@blackskullbass

Does anyone else notice how hes using his pinky on the third fret? is he/ should we be doing it?

[kaboom6899]

thats a beat up looking guitar

[Craydon]

At last, something I will actually buy.

[andr3wbr1an]

talk about reliced, he's even missing an inlay!

[peavyt15]

@andr3wbr1an it isn't really reliced. it is just old.

[paultylla911]

lol 2:00 he lost the free inlay on his guitar it deffinatly gives the strat some carater, but wouldent it afected your playing

[Craydon]

Not unless your finger got caught on it I'd guess and if you look again the edges are worn down so it's been that way for a long time.

[FrosredZiggy]

Damn I'd like one of those guitars, nice. I loved this video, great stuff.

[AraGuitar]

epic tone

[marvelboy04]

finally a guitarworld vid with decent tone. all their other clips sound awful

[lacarneceria613]

@marvelboy04

is he using his pinky

[didgeman987]

perfect guitar playin hands

[GNRrockerdude]

wow that strat's more worn than rory gallagher's

[Medeveechi29]

this guy jams hardd

and yea fenders look sick when theyre beat up

[NERDFREAKINGPOWER]

i know its awesome isn't it?

@manicstreetstevo

[darthvaderyoda]

1:49 whats up with the 7th fret?

[Mo7Vsta]

hopefully its actually old and beat up instead of one of those pointless roadworn guitars

[JerkyChid]

@Mo7Vsta

I believe that's actually Andy's first guitar, he talked about it once in the mag. That's how real players aquire their worn gear, through love and use.

[blackskullbass]

thats why i love fenders, they look better with age

[JKryanX]

all guitars do, i love beat up goldtop les pauls.

[ReVVVern]

@JKryanX hell yeah man mark morton from lamb of god has a beat to shit goldtop that looks and plays like a dream. a beat to shit dream lol

[crush40cool]

sometimes its the style :)

[Shambles940]

i love beat up guitars. They look so cool.

[DunDamage]

@Shambles940 ya man all warn down and junk feel nice to play too

[Zuberzuber]

awesome

sweet guitar

[xCYNICOUTCASTx]

youre a moron

[hueseph]

@xCYNICOUTCASTx Don't chastise the guy just because he's young. Not everyone is old enough to remember this tune. Instead you should be glad that people still recognize good music when they hear it.

[D4vidP0c4r]

cool

[dobby240]

holy shit what a funky song, how have i not heard this?? im gonna learn this one :D

[hueseph]

@dobby240 There's a ton of good music out there. Go to the discount used cd store and explore. The radio will turn you into a drone. Hendrix, Jeff Beck, Cream, Grand Funk, King Crimson. Search, listen, learn.

[dobby240]

@hueseph hell yeah man, i love hendrix but if im honest i dont listen to enough of it. iv never EVER heard of this song. all along the watchtower and manic depression were allways my favorite. but im gonna have to buy a best of cd or somthing.

i fucking hate radio... like you have no idea how much i hate music in the charts...

old school is the way it should have stayed. WERES MY 80'S MUSIC GONE MAN!??!

[RustyR]

That Strat is sexy!

[arnaud360]

kewl

[LRMMcDonnell]

i love this song :)

[cast390]

Hippies,outta sight hash pipe flower child!

[LRMMcDonnell]

@Slashhat7 whats so good about being first on a video that wont be famous?

[Slashhat7]

@LRMMcDonnell lol idk its fun though and im reeely bored.

[JerkyChid]

You're also really mentally impaired and probably the only thing guitar related you can "play" is Rockband
