BRIAN BAKER (BAD RELIGION) GUITAR LESSONS (2/3)

[MXWest1]

5:18 says it all man.

[Deathkninja]

First song he does is American Jesus. (When talking about 8th notes)

[Druffmaul]

But Korn got that tuning from Helmet. And Helmet was @#$%ing rad.

[Alluskillus]

This guy is the shit. I went to a Bad Religion show and this guys guitar tone blew me away. I have spent 2 years trying to emulate it. He is also one of those guitarists that serves the song instead of himself. I'd take him over some ego-maniacal lead guitarist solo master any day.

[torbar]

@Alluskillus Any luck emulating his tone? If so, any tips?

[jeffah]

AWESOME! As for the weight of a LP. , You bought the ticket, enjoy the ride!

[sgtgiggles]

hahaha "methamphetamine based tuning "

[soupsdone]

What was that alt. tunning he mentioned he liked...where he detuned the A string? I'm a noob, sorry.

[OscarDigitalDude]

lol. "Sorry Korn fans". Baker rocks.

[1991Tijmen1991]

With all due respect, this is more an interview than a lesson...

[CounterCulture87]

Why wouldn't Brett do more solos, or be more active in the guitar playing i general, seeing as how he IS the original and better guitarist for the band. On that note, why isn't he doing the lesson too or instead? He MUST be lazy or arrogant... He has to be.

[brshows]

@CounterCulture87

Brett isn't the best guitar player of the band, brian baker is, and this videos is from 2000, Brett wasn't in the band that year

[CounterCulture87]

Oh, your right... he wasn't back yet. My bad. Well, I just figured since he started the band with Greg that he should be doing lessons too. He has come up with a lot of the stuff Brian plays.

[twoboots4you]

At this time in Bad Religion, Bret wasn't in the band anymore. He came back latter though. But if you go watch them play, even though he is officially in the band, and he does record with the band, he almost never plays with them. I guess he's too busy running Epitaph. But that's ok with me, because I don't really love his guitar playing, and he can't do backing vocals for shit.

[DanGuitar9]

@twoboots4you are you kidding? its jay that sucks ass at backing vocals. watch the palladium vids you will see that brett is actually a far better singer.

[pbrskater26]

ha ha, how much caffine dose the drummer take in ?

[dustysxe]

Brooks Wackerman can be a hyper motherfucker.

[torbar]

True.  Just so you know, Brooks wasn't the drummer at the time, Bobby Schayer, but left because of a shoulder injury.

[GaribaldiInTheMaking]

methamphetamine based tuning hahahha!!!

[MickeRamone]

hhahaha damn hes really funny! love the part "if you wanna get crazy you can use this thing too" haha

[maurillion]

ha ha ha!!!!!.. sorry korn fans, but it's crap anyway!!!....

i'm beggining to like this guy

[OscarDigitalDude]

I don't know if anyone said anything, but Mr. Baker used a wah pedal on the solo for "10 in 2010". Also on the inside booklet for "Live at the Palladium" one of his peices of equipment is listed: "Morley Bad Horsie Wah pedal". I don't care, Brian is still my hero

[torbar]

Yeah, Also he uses one on the intro to Suffer(Seen them live a few times)

This videos like, 8 years old though.

[marno76]

he's looks like a very nice guy. also on stage here in Milan, Italy he was great in playing guitar and in choruses. big props up for brian baker.

[nickwentinsane]

lol, the part where he makes fun of downtuning is hillarious.

[thinkajen]

Brian, sweet Brian.

[xxWrecklessxx]

haha sorry korn fans lololoolol

[san1tarium2oo8]

I think that Hetson's better, but he's still good.

[felsner1]

04:15 - LOL! You gotta love that contrast...

[kurtrip]

thats my effect, its called volumeknob

[jrmarrero96]

Yes, he tuned his A string down to G.

[keagan1234321]

what was that second alt tuning he used? did he tune the fifth string to G?

[elkidrecords]

maestro!!!

[BlackJohn]

brian is the shit! i remember meeting him and mark orell (drop kick murphys) after a show at the docks in 2006. we all had good chat about music and society, those were really cool.

[strummerville]

if your playing is like this, who needs effects???

[bmaj7]

How comatose is this interviewer? Guy gives the most indepth, humble and humorous responses while she waits to drone the next goddamn question...

[nans182]

master!!!! i luv this man

[jackazzed1]

badass
