Jazzed Blues Solo

[codyjt5150]

why is everybody complaining that there's no tabs? YOU CAN SEE WHERE HIS FINGERS ARE PLAYING RIGHT THERE!!!! If you can't figure it out from what his fingerings on the solo is then try another song and come back later when you get better.

[muziknewbie]

can someone tell me what key is this pls

[rileydd08]

how do u learn how to solo

[codyjt5150]

@rileydd08 study scales, mainly the major and minor pentatonics and also the 7 modes. study music theory because that's also what helps you play chord progressions and the soloing around it.

[gariono]

he can play it nut can't feel it

[MrBassakos]

Tabs are for deaf ppl.....

[gromshit101]

nice warm tone man, and wonderful phrasing

[J03LVL]

[airforcejim]

Love the jazz style voice. I personally feel that mellower guitar tones articulate better for blues/jazz. Stevie Ray's tone was great, but it just doesn't always work. Sometimes it's cool to push the chunky, bright single coil stuff aside and play some buttery humbucker tones.

[atheniandp]

@airforcejim Yep you're right. Works especially good with chording. I find single coils to be perfect for playing higher on the fretboard though, they articulate those bends better.

[AdamTomaszewskiPL]

Name of the guitar and amp ?

Nice sound ...



[thomaslovesyou]

unbelieveable feel. thanks so much for posting this!

[simonate1]

None of the greatest guitarists ever read tabs. In Hendrix day they didnt even have them but he did ok. You dont become a great musician from reading tabs.

[SouljahForLove]

@simonate1 There will always be great musicians and always be new techniques and ways in which we read or learn music. As you said, there was not tabs then. Do you think now everyone who does learn from tabs and then opens up new ideas as to hand placements and chord placements is not going to become a great musician in the future? We all start somewhere....

[imbarisaxy]

this is one of the best solos ive ever heard for real

[TheRatt27]

another lame guitarist looki for tabs...gods give u ear u know...use them also in music instead of gatherin honey..-.-

[Leutchik]

@TheRatt27 If the freaking PRESIDENT can't deliver a two minute statement without reading it from a teleprompter, why do YOU have to get all bent out of shape about a guitarist wanting to learn from tab? Sheesh!

I think maybe you trip up one-legged guys walking with crutches, saying, "dude, get a chair. If God wanted you to be walking he wouldn't have taken your other leg."

[peniosasdasd]

@Leutchik

Sir I think the president has a lot more on his mind to clutter up remembering a speech than someone browsing youtube has to clutter up learning to solo. 

[TheRatt27]

@Leutchik i just saying that  god gave u both legs still are to lazy to learn to run or jump.anything else is excuses.but its ok its up to u if u wanna learn.

[rooney62danny]

gran turismo music much

[SomeKindOfRemedy]

what type of strings are being used??

[Buttanick]

BB King would do this better (obviously). But it feels like he's rushing it. I think he's nervous. Should've left more space between the licks or just play a bit slower.

[Hughespipe]

@Buttanick

bb king would not be able to do those jazz chords he admits it himself and if he played slower he would be out of time with the drums

[frankie1089]

TABS MOTHAFCKA!!!

[vampirefaggot123]

is that the schecter c-1 semi hollow body with the piezo and duncan designed humbuckers?

[RobDZeppelin]

whats the chord progressionase pleas? lol

[vanderbilly]

Love the tone, great feel and vibrato too. Could listen to this all day.

[murdertoy]

I don't give a shit about tabs. I have played almost 5 years and

i don't give shit. This video is the what i'm talking about = the ears

[hanswernerkilz]

yeah fuck tabs we are all so fucking good we don't even need them any more.yeah tabs are stupid.yeah you guys all suck

[golfboy1412]

love the sound, what are your tone settings

[strelai]

WOW! awesome !! I srsly wanna learn this! wer can I?

[zxssded]

...wow....tats rly nice tone.....any1 knw how 2 get that kidna tone?? besides turning ur amp bass up..

like im lookin mainly 4 yeh...amp settings and or pedals...but pedals arent really what i use.

[TickleTheMonster]

Fuck everyone against tabs.... why can't someone who hasn't been playing for too long just learn the easy way and not spend like 74 fucking years learning by ear.......

[sunnyjim98]

@TickleTheMonster +1!

[GuitarMafia94]

@TickleTheMonster

All you have to do is learn the scale, once you got that, the solo comes naturaly

[blincx]

@TickleTheMonster it doesnt take 74 years but it will if you keep asking for tabs

[MrReverendgreen]

@TickleTheMonster ur never gunna get better if ur ear sucks. the more u practice learning stuff like that the faster youll be able to learn it. and it will take about 3 times watching it. plus you can take ur favorite licks from it and put ur own twist on em

[TheRatt27]

@TickleTheMonster 1st cause the "74 fucking years learning" will make u much much better musicians.2n if u get used to tabs, that will make u worse musician and also u will depend on tabs to play some songs,and when u find some hard songs u really like but there is no tabs,then u would wish u had practiced a little bit your ears.ppl on 70"s or 80's didn't had tabs and music books were too rare enough though u can see that guitarists on 80's 70's are 100 times better than any guitarist nowadays

[sususegar]

is that an ovation ultra-gp?

[Pac2011]

A bit jazzed blues, very nice effect.

[robertocasijazz]

Bravissimo!!!!

Roberto.

[TheExplodingPumpkin]

What scale do you use

[Zepster77]

TASTY!

[topografer]

is that a solid body guitar?

[TheSchoolsux345]

did not expect that tone

[Fruscianteistheman]

finally, a solid player, modest introduction, great tone, simple progression, and some jazz thrown in with the blues. I love the embellishments, good work!

[o1zeidler]

This is one of the best solos i have ever heard.. and trust me, I have heard alot

[cjoey39]

Smooth!! Really nice!!! Joey Vaughan "World Blues Attack"

[skillguitar]

Could you make a lesson for the chords you are playing? Which chords sound good with the various keys (lets say A)

[NatureLegalized]

love it :) i got a jazzed blues cd-rom set from him a long time ago..think i'll revisit that.

[francescofdi]

are there any tabs for that ?

wonderful

[Nemlad92]

How can someone not give 5 stars to this video?

[XDSocks]

@Nemlad92 Because of the new crappy youtube layout?

[Nemlad92]

@XDSocks haha good point :)

[PKaisala]

[colombiano4420]

[Goryllo]

lorenzo bianchi ceccherini has skills! check it out

[Kemek12345]

@Goryllo

lol, you get lessons to achieve skills xD

[Goryllo]

did you check the vid out?

no lessons just feeling

[twangbarfly]

Thanks Goryllo - just wasted my time checking out Lorenzo BC to humour you - give him another few years and see if he can develop any tone, taste and time, though I doubt it - in the meantime, my money's on Mr Carlton.

Who knows, in a few years you may even manage to grow a pair of ears yourself, but again, I doubt it.

Ciao caro e buona notte!!

[naspolozzolo]

only blues

[boggy32]

nice playing and great tone

[colombiano4420]

@boggy32 yeah the tone is what one he thing i most like of blues

[KSEMortensen]

[svidrigajlov]

[razor1107]

[jackapoo1715]

[jeffersonkinho]

[elvisjackass]

[Gr8GuitarRalph]

fuck tabs, just do it with your ears, then you can mix it better with your own playin'

[liamfitch32195]

i have to agree, i mean its only 1 minutes it won't be that hard to learn.

[aravis123]

@Gr8GuitarRalph totally agree

[Stafmusic]

where can i get this backing track from?

[FFF85]

this is exactly wath i'm looking for! please could you send me the tab?!

[oneandahalfmen]

could someone try to make tabs or this?

[muckachunk]

can you please send me the tabs,

[VANDALEN100]

with the sliding is there a B7 "form" cord used??

[mobea2]

tabs please!!

[KostukArtur]

maybe it is blues solo, but not jazzed blues solo!!

[mccormickn]

That reminds me of the part in Spinal Tap where they argue about if they play "Jazzy Blues" or "Bluesy Jazz". LOL. Rock On.

[thailow117]

as you see, everyone's an expert. i tend to share your opinion. however, everyone seems to know better... we should shut up

[someonebigman]

it's more bluesy

[Fr3derick]

Brilliant!!!

Grandma Mary

[patdel92]

anyone know a good site or good way to get the hang of this type of soloing, or good songs to learn..i konw its all the feel but any suggestions?

[Diminished5thProd]

Yeah learn Texas Flood. But don't just copy it....utilize the techniques, see what he is doing and then start doing it at different places on the board.

[patdel92]

yea tru im not trying to cop a pros style thanks alot tho

[Urkeltje]

true this is blues

[GuitarKidddd]

Sounds john Mayerish! NICE!

[dreamlife222]

Is there a broken down lesson on this? I didn't see it on the website.

[seth3556r]

There's nothing Jazz about this solo. This is all blues.

[GassyMaskz]

Any blues that requires no chordal theory is not jazz. Otherwise it's jazzy.

[seth3556r]

I don't think so, Blues doesn't mean you're musically stupid. With all due respect, you should get your facts straight before you talk with the bigger people. Blues and Jazz are not the same, they may be somewhat related but that's just about it.

[GassyMaskz]

There's no definitive point 'til you get to dixieland. And most things before that that were basic and only involved 1-4-5 chords. The exceptions were considered the roots of jazz.

[seth3556r]

I get your point, but I'm going to have to respectfully disagree. What do you mean by Dixieland my friend?

[Theloniousfunkk]

blues requires chordal theory, gassy

[zenithlead]

awsome sound

[carl7waters]

nice effect

[bladeofmetall]

I think it's clean, just, a little echo

[ddNicKbb]

Where can i find the tabs??

:D

[ralphtt]

transcribe.. you can see his fingers lol

[ddNicKbb]

:P:P

[anthonyconejo]

can u please give me some tabs and amp settings

[P0Psyckle]

roll back the tone knob on your guitar, and add some bass, less treble.

[BrokenCMusic]

you shouldn't tell other people how to have there sound, thats why it's THERE SOUND!

[P0Psyckle]

I was replying to anthonyconejo who asked for amp settings. Mind your own business.

[coldflowz]

awesome!!!

and it's true blues and jazz you fell and play..

they're pure improvisation ;D

[Dudefish420]

He plays so smoooth =)

[Ibik]

what guitar is that"?

[jahenx94]

very B.B. King

[Ericclapton325]

tabs please

[lgu954k]

I'm not knocking this...so don't all beat me up, please. But...it is virtually all pentatonics, the basic 'chord boxes' that rock guitarists use. There's virtually no jazz here...there are LOADS of different scales that a jazz guitarist would use over a 12-bar blues. It's kind of a shame that it's not a bit more adventurous - although it is really nice and tasteful.

[cseppento]

How do you get that beautiful jazz sound on an electric guitar which is not a jazz guitar? I see it's on the neck pick-up, but how do you set the amplifier things?

[falconer333]

Any chance we can get some tabs? I would love to learn this, Great mixture of jazz and blues!

[leomanl]

blues and jazz must come from the heart not tab man play what u feel

[falconer333]

Totally agree, but listen to the first bit of the vid man... also I am trying to learn scales and theory so learning stuff like this helps me so I can play what I feel. The whole point of this vid is to learn.

[leomanl]

yes i agree with you that it is to learn and watch closely try and pick out some part and see what he is doing. scales and theory are very important again i do agree but try and use things as more of an inspirational learning technique to give you ideas. but at the end of the day man its you're choice and whatever you tihnk is right for you go for it cause wether you learn the full thing by tab, music or ear or just use it as ispiration its worth the time

[falconer333]

Cool man, I just love the way he incorporated jazz and blues together so evenly and beautifully. Peace.

[malibeatu90]

i always wanted to play the guitar and play these blues/jazzy songs but its too late now im 14 and my parents put me into lame ass violin crap scince i was 3....

[ShadowOfLight3000]

Cmon... It's never too late... I started from 18 am now 20 and can play almost as well as this guy.

[Hungryboyfromhungary]

agree with shadow of light...i'm twenty one and just started. it's a hella lot of fun, just go for it dude!

[leomanl]

man i was fourteen when i started n i done piano since i was fiv but jst go for it man pick a goal aim high and go for it

[Jkmilo999]

what is the name of the song?

[haywoodjabuzzoff]

Thats Tasty

[Tomgrandelf]

Sweet blues solo, but this is not jazz, is just a blues solo with some melodic and chord inversion stuff (very nice).

[Amethysting]

WOW- You sound like Bill Enke !

[oneandahalfmen]

I can't figure it out, how do you get your amp so sound like that?

[soren650]

lots of bass - around 3 o' clock on your amp. Treble around 9 'o clock.. mid in middle.. -ish!

And roll the tone-knob back on your guitar.. NEck pickup... That should get you going...

[pEng860661]

Thank you so much

[problyshred]

god i love that tone so much. i tried to do it with my amp, came out pretty good :D

[silverspine89]

Does anyone know how to play the harmonic at 24seconds?

[29396]

It's not a harmonic, it's a rake up to that note

[tomt1291]

i figured out how to play this solo but i want to find a backing track that fits so can somone tell me in what key this is??

[khamer1410]

Try in C

[SeagoGuitarist]

stop bitching at each other and just listen to the music.

=)

[mafew129]

wrong again. if you knew anythign about american history you would know that the civil war ended in 1865. blues wasnt developed until the civil war this that led to a surplus of unused marching band instruments. these instruments were cheap for blacks. jim crowe forced black and creoles (look it up) to play together at clubs. this lead, combined with ragtime, lead to the the development of dixiland and then early jazz. blues became an offshoot of this that look many elemnts from jazz like improv

[jmsbk12345]

Very nice. Can anyone recommend a fantastic backing CD with jazz/blues in different keys like the one we hear here?

[maskone]

this isn't jazz.

It's a blues with a jazzy backing track (made in biab)

[mafew129]

blues is jazz.

[mafew129]

technically yes. if you've ever studied jazz history or knew anything about music history you would know that the blues was developed from jazz in the early 20th century.

oh and just for good measure: you dumb fucking noob piece of shit.

[freerunninfrog13]

Wrong, retard. Blues was created by African American slaves singin about their hardships in the fields.

As Langston Hughes says "Any music that calls itself American is derived from the blues"

[mafew129]

...become the era of Early Jazz in the late 19th or early 20th cent. It was out of this Early Jazz tht the blues was derived.

[ledzeppelin4485]

actually no, jazz came out of the blues movement in the early 1800s because of the addition of horns, and guitar mainly became a backing instrument at that point. so u have it backwards, jazz came out of blues, and they might share some elements, but they are definitely not the same

[CrucialCritics]

freerunning is right.

[passionstrike]

For those of you who are searching for a thight and very musical band I would recommend you to listen to TOTO.

[metalistas1993]

Tabs please? :)

[ninabmay]

i love jazz

[kikin2666]

what is the name of that song ? ( sorry for my inglish) great song u r great man

[RuskingArms666]

wooow you´re really good!

[psychoactivepaper]

what key is this in? so i can figure it out...

[Gummy132]

I do believe it's in C

[PizzaToTheDome]

If you can't figure out what key this is in on your own, chances are you can't figure it out.

[psychoactivepaper]

as a matter a fact I am figuring it out...

[Jkwazzy]

he says in th key of C lol

[petter8999]

[alonsomoscolosco]

[jimiexpert]

[emorocker1230]

[c4662]

[Baltzy24]

I think its a PRS...but perhaps a Schecter. I never thought of that.

[jrhmiami]

nah thats a Schecter C-1/SH or EA, they all had that split crown inlay

[Baltzy24]

oh ok... thanks for the clarification.

[Fichtezxc]

inlays and tuners and switch are wrong for a PRS.

[klinkdaddy69]

Yeah, he's playing a schecter hollow body electric guitar.

[DBAD14]

this is my crack

[metalmachine91]

nice job
