Can't understand negative comments on here, this is good stuff, I've been playing for 30 years & I think this guy is great! Keep on rocking buddy, sounds fantastic!
I think your very talented with the guitar. There's no question about that. Your voice...not so much. Ha. But I'm in the same boat ha. Love this song. Such a modern song. Hendrix was way ahead of his time :D
Uh, why is this guy sort of playing (bad intonation) a left handed guitar right handed? Oh and what about the other three quarters of the notes he left out? Try it with out the distortion, even you would cringe.
This was kinda good, until you started singing. That's when I stopped the video and started to write this comment. Please excuse me while I go have sex with my girlfriend.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
thats not even cool you shouldnt copy his way of playing use your own style thats what playing guitar is all about, ya know being yourself through the power of music
@jchb2008 ....that is your opinion. Ill play any song the way i want to. This video is not new so your "tip" isnt really a tip rather than annoyin spam. Thank you for your comment but it wasnt needed.
Glad you did as its great, you have a brilliant ability there indeed, nice to hear it. Now do a decent recording and mail it to me please, it will help while I am running listening to it on my mp3.
I subbed, so i've watched most of your videos, Your guitar isn't the 1997 woodstock clone is it? Just thought on that model it had a larger headstock decal. Did you make the guitar yourself?
once again not meant racist, but you see 99.9% of blacks in to hip hop and rap crap, love to see people like this. Love it, other than a bit of the singing...
Awesome as always, wish I would have commented this one much earlier. My only criticism for you is that, when you solo, try to improvise a melody based off of the chord progression, because by doing so, you're furthering the song. You have talented fingers, and if you apply a bit of theory, you'll only sound even more professional and amazing.
thats a matter of opinion and what gear you have. for me i only buy vox wahs cuz it sounds best with the gear i have and im loyal to vox. but your gear is your decision. i dont wanna steer you away from a pedal you may want. if you want my help tho send me a message and i can give you my experiences with various wah pedals ive used.
I just listened to the version from the bbc sessions cd and played it over and over till i got it. Since the guitar is live and not buried so much under effects and harpsichord like on electric ladyland it was easier to go by. Btw i learn everything by ear/ and or watchin videos of jimi (or whoevers song im learnin) play em.
A really good black, Lefty guitar player. Can't think of any before
