[Sonike9]

excellent.

[The3sikkidz]

i have the same stones shirt

[Spiderrico123]

hey mate quality playing, is this keiths bit or brians? have you done a version of Brian's guitar? keep upthe work quality covers :)

[frankgallagher5]

hi bro, do you have the first guitar of this version?

[bobgure]

Yes, according to the man himself , the recording was done with all acoustic guitars pushed to distortion. Amazing.

[GutiarAce]

on the studio version keith used a regular acoustic and then dubbed it with another in Nashville tuning. thats why it sounds like a twelve string

[meatloaf928]

youre the best keep shreddin

[corgi37]

Great playing and i love your Tele. BTW, no electric guitars on studio verision of JJF.

[chernobilski]

according to keef's autobiography the song is in open g

[privettricker]

@chernobilski He's played it in open G onstage for many years, but not the original studio recording.

[keoki22]

your the best man I dig your taste in tunes keep em comin

[jeffj257]

hey priv, Is it possible that the tuning on this song is open E tune down a quarter step?.meaning:( taking your high E string and tuning it in between D# and E) When playing with you and keith,thats what i need to do or maybe thats happens when upload, it slows it down...thx for all the great videos

[privettricker]

@jeffj257 In the classic rock era, I'd say half of the songs were off from standard pitch.

[robingahan1234]

Is this in open G tuning? If it is then Brian probably didnt play

[robingahan1234]

@robingahan1234 shit sorry, just read the intro bit, Open E

[Feldlistrasse]

my favorite, along with Love in Vain. Thank you. . . .

[12stringsforme]

Dude are u losing weight?

Sorry if I'm prying.

[Evan42881]

Is your guitar a reissue?

[TheMasterofnothing13]

hey man nice job on this ,think you can post a lesson on this that would be awesome

[sharkyjoe77]

Also capo on 4th, open G tuning (live); Street Fighting Man , Tumblin' Dice, Happy, Rip This Joint.

[sharkyjoe77]

@KUTVgroucho Actually is capo on 4th, with open G tuning, which is the key of B. Capo on 5th he uses for YCAGWYW, since '72 and Little Red Rooster more recently, again in open G.

[wpstatefan11]

Awesome! Could you please do the second guitar part to Hey Negrita, Ronnie Wood's part? I have a general idea of how to play it but cant completely get it.

[sharkyjoe77]

Just to add a little detail, the cheap Phillips recorder had no limiter so the accoustic guitars (four of them I think) were recorded destorted and then got playback through an external speaker in the studio and got recorded again, this explains the "electric" sound and the slight alteration in pitch due to tape speed difference. Of course this might be the case with rhythm parts only and not this part! (the single notes)

[KUTVgroucho]

AT LAST SOMEONE IS PLAYING THIS SONG PROPERLY IN OPEN E! The true history is that the original recording is all on acoustic guitars and sans Brian Jones. What's tuning where he uses a capo on the 5th (?) at Hyde Park and beyond? Is this an open tuning or standard E? RnR Circus used standard tuning w/o capo, obviously. Is this what the rest of you know?

[mick1967]

...put a lot of overdrive on the track to make it sound like an electric guitar and musical history was ready to take off.

[mick1967]

Great Job privettricker. I look forward to every new video you send to Youtube, especially the Stones stuff. Similar to Street Fighting Man Keith played the riff on a acoustic guitar, recorded it on a cheap Philips Tapedeck,

[stonz82]

Well done!  From I have read over the years (KR interviews) about this tune, the guitars are all Keith and are accoustic. Except for the bass.

[LEEUMSK8]

is this brian jones part?

[privettricker]

@LEEUMSK8 There's debate about whether he played on this track or not. 

[LEEUMSK8]

@privettricker he was ill at that time the rock and roll circus dvd shows it

[privettricker]

@LEEUMSK8 Yeah, "ill" is a pretty good word for Brian, although that kind of absolves him of any responsibility for his condition. 

[LEEUMSK8]

@privettricker Yeah cause he did so many drugs.

[Evan42881]

@privettricker was he crazy or something?

[midsizedwhiteboy]

PrivettRicker, Need a keyboard player? I knew bflat e f# a.You sure make it look easy to figure sh*t like this out(second guitar part,etc.) You have some type of

gift if again you heard it and figured it out.You're playing better than KR is now.Course they wrote it, we're innovators(acoustics on SFM,etc in the studio)

but thanks I now know the second part other than 3 bar chords I learned in 1972!

[thinkforyaself98]

on the recording keith used his Gibson Les Paul Custom and it was seen in the promo video and he used it in the rock n roll circus video and for brian he might have used one of his Rickenbacker 360/12 but in the promo video he playin a Telecaster and for the Rock N Roll cirus he plays either 56,57,58 gibson les oaul gold top

[privettricker]

@thinkforyaself98 Actually, I think MarkJohn is right -- I've read interviews where Keith said there were no electric guitars at all on the studio recording of JJF. And he even talks about stringing the guitars (at least one of them) Nashville style. The recording they used for the two promo clips was a new recording that they mimed to -- and that version definitely sounds like there are electric guitars in it. So maybe Keith used the Custom to record that one.

[thinkforyaself98]

@privettricker that is certainly a very unqiue technique he used but i guess we won't know

[davejviking]

@privettricker

i read the same thing no electric guitars on JJF only the bass

[stevensharon]

As good as ever privetricker

[MarkJohn1244]

BTW, my comments taken from Keith interview.

[MarkJohn1244]

Both acoustics were put through a Philips cassette recorder. Just jam the mic right in the guitar and play it back through an extension speaker.

-From Keef

[MarkJohn1244]

Then there was a capo on it, to get that really tight sound. And there was another guitar over the top of that, but tuned to Nashville tuning.

[MarkJohn1244]

Gibson Hummingbird acoustic tuned to open D

[privettricker]

@MarkJohn1244 You're right -- I'll change the title.

[MarkJohn1244]

Keith used a portable cassette player to record the guitar. Same technique for "Street Fightig Man."

[TroubadourJuggernaut]

The only person I have ever seen cover this tune correctly ! awesome

[MrACDC1997]

Damn you're awsome!

you always do the cool songs and you always nail them :)

you keep me playing too bro

[killingj0ke23]

i want that shirt

[tomtom255]

Nice playing, the paint job on your tele is absolutely killer, I love it

[1971SuperLead]

I was just trying to play this song yesterday! Thanks for the video!

So.....you tune to open E....well.....that should help! lol

[37paull1]

As always.. Very well done!!

[theredraven]

Your Telecaster is sexy.

[sharkyjoe77]

@privettricker Yes I know, he'd play anything but guitar. His mental state was deteriorating also, suffering from nervous breakdowns and increasing substance abuse (and police busts). Allegedly at some point, in '67 I think, they had to unplug him for he had collapsed in the studio with his guitar buzzing...

[sharkyjoe77]

@privettricker I know what you mean about the sound, it's different than Keith's style and of course he could be lying about him playing everything.

On the other hand in the Rock 'n Roll Circus Brian plays a Goldtop but he's inaudible! He was supposed to be completely out of it by then. Who can tell for sure?

[privettricker]

@sharkyjoe77 Post 1966, I think Brian only played guitar on two or three Stones recordings. He was into other instruments by then, kind of gave up on guitar. And you can see in the Sympathy for the Devil film, he played on that song, but they mixed him out completely.

[coloradotim]

Well Mick was, and still is... the accountant. I don't care how well he sings! Hope you had a great 4th. Love the Stones videos.

[sharkyjoe77]

@Evan42881 No, they didn't have standard roles, they both played lead and rhythm. That was the first version of the "ancient art of weaving" (the second is with Ronnie)

[Evan42881]

Wait. Originally, Jones was lead, and Richards was rhythm?

[kimjenkins123]

ya he was

[sharkyjoe77]

Spot on performance! Great!

Although, I think Keith plays all guitars on this one, if I'm not wrong. At list that's what Keith says. By '68 Brian's contribution was minimal. At that period he played only on No Expectations - the slide part. Of course, I wasn't there...

[privettricker]

@sharkyjoe77 Yeah, you're probably right. I know in the promo video for this song, Brian's playing a Tele, but that may have nothing to do with who played what on the studio recording. Still, it sounds more like Brian playing than Keith to me.

[swatprof]

Cool! Never seen anyone do those licks before.

[TheRjd555]

Do you ever get bored of learning all those songs?

[privettricker]

@TheRjd555 No!

[NicholasViens]

@TheRjd555 most stupid question I've ever heard !

[kammhron]

A great way to spend the 4th!

[nearvana2003]

Been building up open e songs to play, Cool!!!

[nearvana2003]

Happy 4th!!!!!!



[brandonlace]

Nice playing! Also, I am envious of your Stones Baseball shirt.

[66blades66]

great!

[henrytdsimmons]

Nice
