[mlunacantu]

Sweet Man !!

[DenSnuskigaFilmen]

this guy sucks at explaining

[stringbenderE2E]

@DenSnuskigaFilmen Maybe you're not good at listening.

[ming746]

this dude is always saying country and he seldom if ever sounds country. if you want real country lessons look up doug seven or forrest jr.

[stringbenderE2E]

@ming746 ??? That doesn't sound country? Clean out your ears son

[ming746]

@stringbenderE2E if you think that is or sounds twangy country your an idiot. mAYBE U JUST HAVE NO CLUE WHAT TO LISTEN FOR OR SEE. BAH! THINK WHAT YOU WILL.

[stringbenderE2E]

@ming746 I just said it sounds country. No need to have a nervous breakdown over it. Relax.

[lucakozma]

oh my god! I never heard a musican talking about/mentioning the Kodály method. now I'm awfully proud to be Hungarian!

[odinmp5]

@lucakozma im from colombia , southamerica.. and let me tell you.

Kodaly, ROCKS!!!! 

[LoekSijbers]

Thanks so much... But honestly, i'm so far away from playing like that.... On one hand it's a huge inspiration seeing people like you play SO well, on the other hand it's telling me, why even try.... ;-)

[shango02005]

You don't need tab with sound AND video! Just take some time and figure it out. You'll be glad you did in the long run. Thanks for the lick!!

[colemontelongo]

ATX bb

[rricko85]

Looks like Edward Norton:)

[CrazeSniper]

anyone found a Doug Seven T0rrent yet?

[Rudimentarypenis]

Great lick, but what a piece of shit "lesson". No wonder why they call it "retard village".

[rampage961]

johnny knoxville?

[fender7375]

Thanks, nice lick ... useful info. Favorited

[ellonysman]

Enjoy, let me know what you think of 'em and if you have found any fantastic players yourself on here. Isnt this an incredible format?

[donottawaguitar]

[footy01ful]

[christinschenn]

u are cute

[Chriztian86]

Is this the guy who plays the Hulk and Bruce Banner from the 2008 Hulk movie? It looks exactly like him.

[JHaslip]

@Chriztian86 No, haha that's Eric Bana.

[aldexreyes]

Great jammin' !! Love the guitar...........been to hell and back looks like. How many miles on that baby?

[Stonebridbge]

Hey man. Great tone you're getting. I like the no frills sound you're producing for this lick. Just picking your brain real quick, how did you come about playing so clean? My biggest issue at this point is playing cleanly. Thanks in advance.

[skrimpshidy]

@Stonebridbge You have to slow down at first. Practice it over and over. Then when you have it down, practice it over and over again.

Speed and clean comes with time.

[thomasbryn1]

great lesson thanks...what amp are you using to get that sound? Any effects?

[ShozDijiji]

This was helpful and fun. Will try the rest. Thanks for doing these.

j

[Izisal]

[jazzpman]

[brittwin]

Very nice tone from your strat... Appreciate what you do..

[TheSvenien]

[juvserr]

nicely done...

[halloichbinshorst]

not bad

[vivalukasz]

finally, some good guitar stuff from expert village. inspires me to learn some country licks

[hritz77]

very cool. NEVER thought id start jammin country licks. love the groove though

[tatsandteles]

Great touch man. Beautiful. You leave yourself so much headroom to work with. Well done, very well done.

[Niteblub]

wow i really love ur tone!

[tfw46]

Absolutely Incredible Guitar Playing. Your friends at 35GuitarPickupTones{dot}com

[elvisaggy]

Lose the commercial.

[TonyMcWatt]

LOL MotherTrucker. That's a good one.

[kdjfnvjvd]

nice riff buddy.

[jamesjonesrocket]

what a nice sound he has on that strat!

[Mikkysixx]

Ooops, i just realised he did do a slow one :) Sorry bout that:)

[Mikkysixx]

Great instruction for us experienced players! We just need to hear it once, and we got it:) So no need to go slow. But you should have done a slow one if you'd want the ones just beginning to learn from this.

Great licks though :)

[ferlottes]

wow !! you're an experienced player and you want to share that with the community and virtual friends ! cool. Thanks for tellings us about that majesty.

[MultiJumpinjackflash]

hey nice job your very articulate,I.m going to practice thatC lick thanks,I have a vidio here as well ,,like to incorporate what your doing in my next one...if you care to check out my vidio

[musicprodave]

You are a very good player but your teaching is really not very good. You must go very slow and explain better if you really want to help people understand what you are doing...again you are a very good player

[lancers46]

The fret boards not dirty,its worn from countless hours of practice man.

[thecryroom]

I liked it a lot thanks for the tip look forward to more

[jrwesterman]

Yeah, too fast for me I guess Ill just listen to rap.

[kdjfnvjvd]

haha!!!

[Predictable0]

He should clean the neck of the guitar lol

[tenaciousjp]

its fret board ware. it means its either old and used very much by previous owners or he plays a shit load.

[Predictable0]

thank you for explain that point

[therealmediapirate]

One of the best instructors on Youtube as far as I'm concerned. Keep it up man!

[AitanLevy]

He is a great teacher.

I've learned a lot from his lessons because he describes the hows and whys. Very generous for a guitar player as good as him.

[beaverliqour]

very nice . Thanks for the tips

[NewTracks001]

that is not a lesson its a guy playing some licks

[LOLPPFO]

u suck balls

[Ricar41]

Sweet

[PAULOcbi]

that was terrible ,...as far as showing a guitar lick goes, scrap it

[gamergeek3000]

I thought it was a cool lick, could you not keep up, or did you not like what he played...?

[MrL141]

Very cool.

[pat976]

get out of here ,you stupid f$%k !

[mlb9303]

hahaha

[0TexasPablo0]

what the fuck man, u think u can go any faster?

[jorgecardo62]

Man, you need to get off of it. Can't even speak clear! your guitar shines and I can't see what you are playing. You are so fast, where are you going? Move onnnnnn

[COOL12ROCK]

HELLO

[callasexperience]

tune up your guitar

[bigwillysmitty]

check your ear d-bag,..before I give your mother a pink sock...he's in perfest tune!

[Clancyboy7]

FUCKIN REDNEK

[efrainc23]

suck my dick nigga

[mikeybeez]

fretboard master! love it....

[thepossessor]

the mother truckers lol

[RAMBINI1]

Awesome licks Dude, but you REALLY need to

post some tabliture.

Yours for the Love of the Guitar,

RAMBINI

[OrderOfTheDragon67]

His hands are right there, people need to learn to play by ear, and quit relying on tablature.

[RAMBINI1]

Thanks for your input, but even the pro's

use tabliture to make sure they heard it right.

Also, even though his hands are right there

as you mentioned, clearly you can't see the

exact finger used to pick with everytime, or

at least I can't. Thanks again.

[SongForRich]

tablature??haha..

just use your ear man!

[RAMBINI1]

Thanks for your input, you use your ear....

I'll use tabliture and my ear.

Thanks anyway

[crazyjack666]

Hey don't worry, I've got a lot of hassle about me using tablatures and yes even tough I've been playing for... what? 8 years...(damn! I've just realised how old I am) I still play a song by ear and confirm it with the tablature, if it works for pianists and violin players it sure works for guitar players! :D

[RAMBINI1]

You got that right, play it by ear, then CONFIRM what you heard with tabliture, even

the Masters use sheet music, the BIG HEADS

just think they don't need it in writing.

Rock On! Yours for the Love of the Guitar,

RAMBINI

[doeygood3000]

Go fuck your mom you idiot!!!!!

[doeygood3000]

You spell tablature with an a not an i you fucking nigger!!!!!!

[Plutoloco4]

I'm gonna fuck anyone up who says nigger on here.

[doeygood3000]

My dads a cop and I have just reported you for threats!!!!!!! Nigger fucking bitch!!!!!!!!!!!

[Plutoloco4]

your dad isn't a cop and since my threats aren't immediate and unlikely, no one is gonna give a shit.

I have more to be concerned about your racism. Fuckin asshole

[Dundasholes]

I agree with your contempt for word nigger but unless your willing to pull a Jay and Silent Bob and go door to door with a list of screen names and addresses, its an empty threat yo.

[allstarplaya4000]

nigger um the answer was nagger lol

[RAMBINI1]

Dude, you seriously have issues, first of all

I am a white boy, second of all, who cares how

I spell anything. Now.....just try to take a

deep breath and think about how retarded you

sound. You have to resort to name calling

because you don't like the way my spelling

was?? I'll bet your Momma is sooooo proud

of you.

Later dude,

RAMBINI

[RAMBINI1]

By the way..... why do you have to trash the

sanctity of a decent site like this with your

bigotry and your foul mouth??? Can you not

express your thoughts without the use of foul

language??

You seriously need help

[bush555]

wow your a dick!

[MKrock0]

doeygood3000.  LAY OFF!

[AssassinSteven]

Im not a real big fan of country, but that was great!

[ProfessorOKaine]

nice stuff!

search: ProfessorOKaine and bring your playing to the limits!

[gotmilkboyzz93]

awsome

[jamesmomo789]

good

[fendertexas]

simply fantastic

[soundsfromnothing]

Of course a lot of modern "country licks" are actually adapted blues licks, but there were/are many licks that are original to country. Pedal steel emulated licks, Bluegrass guitar runs etc. Great videos though! I love em.

[bmd200]

very cool. thank you

[craigosaurus]

You guys know what's really funny? All good musicians are intelligent people. The people who can't play are just too stupid!!! That's why there are so many haters. So many stupid people =)

[amdo2008dragon]

josh ur the angel master of guitarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr­rrrrrrr

hats offfffffffffffffffffffffffffff­ff

rockerrrrrrrrrrrrrr

any ideas how can u sync jazz with rock with funk

[capodastaro]

has that guitar got scalloped frets or is it the sun on the frets making it look like it?

[RickySensei]

enjoyed that. the people who post negative stuff on musicians sites do it because they have small willies and are angry about it.

trust me , I am in the construction industry and we never tell lies to people

[brotherbleu]

Sweet, theres a dulcimer in the background, I play one of those. Great country licks. Thanks.

[johnnyscales1]

Thanks for doig what you do, don't listen to the negitive posts....If they have anythig better to offer, well thats what youtube is all about!

[Santanafan841]

Thanks a bunch. Keep clogging youtube...if that's possible. I'm a reggae guitarist and love the mix of country/blues licks with reggae, a la Peter Tosh. Country guitarists that played on Marley's albums helped bring reggae to the world.

[Mainstreet2006]

Thanks, I think these are really cool licks....keep them coming. Good luck with your band and musical career.

[RobSchneeberger]

Provided you have even a somewhat decent knowledge of music theory, this guy does a pretty nice job explaining where hes moving and why. If you watch this and don't understand it, it is most likely because you don't understand the fundamentals about roots and dominant seventh chords, nice vid dude.

[raydioman61]

Josh is an incredible guitar player.. Catch him and his lovely MT partner, Teal, at the Continental Club in Austin, Texas.. but get there early, because they pack the place!

[ztubs6]

man ur lessons are clogging up youtube and they are kinda weak-no offense-they are cool and all but they are all over ther place jeez

[paintedhorse1957]

your right , no lesson just HEY watch me play

[Rickdownunder28]

awsome guitar playin!!! I play a little country as well, but never seen some one as good as you!! your probably the best out there!!

[rockinbear]

Good Lord..I must post my Lick..! What will it be..?? Stay tuned..or whatever,,I will post a really technical lick..! or not..! I will waste lotsa time figuring it out..! keep watching..! and have fun..!

[Dajuro]

"whats the use of this? its just a little lick. posting vids like this will have no end. no end i tell you! youre a good player but hey.. there are millions "

I guarantee you that the above quote was written by someone who can't play worth a ****.

[enaiuonder]

I do agree with timmay301, what's the use of videos like this? there are milions of palyers who could post a guitar lick, and lots of players playing basic guitar who posts wonderful and simple renditions of good songs: isn't it better? Anyway I have to congratulate for your guit tec. Ciao!

[slchamberlain]

great stuff, fantastic player...but, some close ups on your left hand would be helpful!

[timmay301]

whats the use of this? its just a little lick. posting vids like this will have no end. no end i tell you! youre a good player but hey.. there are millions

[birdiejoehoaks]

god you're stupid.

[digoenessah]

good

[nath12344]

fuck off

[dezilisk]

honestly i used to think country was all just stupid but this made me actually take a listen to some of it, i can't honestly say that i like the genre too much, but i can definitely say now that there are some very talented musicians who play country.

[Jiwpgakis]

wow I like that guy

[spoondude1943]

you are good,i wish i had a computer when i was a teen, i am old now and play steel guitar , self taught...good job

[ashep126]

I'm not a country fan, but I can appreciate talent, and that was a pretty tasty little lick there. Much respect.

[BlueCrow89]

ok... im lost, but good playin! i liked it!

[Manne327]

GOOD STUFF

[ccdevilleh]

fuck, dont understand a shit

[YOUYOU47]

Use your ears...

[YOUYOU47]

I meant to react on ccdevilleh who said he didn't understand anything

[heatleyd]

the camera angle is from the pyllyreikä!

[vldas]

great lick, thanks

[jenwalter99]

your amazing !

[Trex100]

I realize it is more work, but a flash of tabs on the screen would be most helpful. It is tough to grasp it all...

[erniexbetty]

thanx for this tips

[WhatnotProd]

Josh, please produce a full-length instructional DVD. You have good amp-side manner.

[ArtistCarl]

Great lessons! It's great to hear the theory, I hate when people just show licks without explaining what the heck they are doing (most don't know) - keep up the great work!

[justplayman]

People are just being who they are. some connect some don't. I love. and throw out the bath water, but keep the baby. Not everyone is in the explanation mood. There are bills that need paying and food to buy. It's a Satanic world. I hate that.

[prody2000]

this is a great lick. where can I find books with country licks like this in it? prody2000@comcast.net

[pwargan]

I love your videos, keep them coming, thanks so much!

[ElectricSamurai]

wooo awesome and thanks a lot !!

[Hackexpess]

Awesome Dude I Learned Alot.
