Jumping Jack Flash 1/2

[leapsplashafrog]

@southamerican

Hi, no im talking about the early stones. Jumpin jack came out in 68. In early 70s Keef moved away from Open D or E and jumpin jack (like many tracks) was and is now only played open G capo 4. Open d/e is only used by Keef in the early late 60s early 70s. I know cause i love that tuning. Pure blues. I don't think Keef ever used E5 tuning though. That's what I'm asking the teacher here. Bw

[leapsplashafrog]

Hi, what makes you think this is an e5 tuning with no third? Why isn't it a open e or d with Capo 2. Other good players on YouTube say its two guitars one in open e the other standard. Did Keef ever use an e5 tuning?

[southamericanrocker]

@leapsplashafrog ... I guess hes trying to teach the studio version... youre talking how keef plays it live... :)

[mateoslash1]

@bearvsbeargrylls i agree!!

[leonardjohnny67]

superb! nice work man!

[newcross76]

AT LAST!!!! Have you any idea how long I've been trawling youtube to find someone playing a version of Jumping Jack Flash that actually IS Jumping Jack flash and doesn't just sound a bit like it. No idea why people are afraid to retune their guitar, stuff sounds so much better, is much more fun and easy to play. Once you've tried it you wonder why you've bothered with standard at all... This is the real thing. Thanks so much!

[gtrjoeles]

@newcross76 Well, than you so much ~ I strive to teach the best to my ability and sure glad to hear I'm on the right track ~ All my best ~ Joe

[rockymtrocker]

Thanks again for your help with my humbly sent video response-couldn't have done it at ALL without your help! I gave you the credit on the video description as well as a link to your video. You rock! (I re did my video as the first one was worse than this one LOL)

[gtrjoeles]

@rockymtrocker My pleasure , great job on your video - I'm proud to have it on here. Thanks for sharing it ~ Joe

[rockymtrocker]

Thanks for explaining the studio version tuning-great lesson please check my video response which is sent VERY humbly after watching you LOL

[gtrjoeles]

@rockymtrocker Great job and I'm VERY HAPPY to have the video response. Very well done ~Thanks for posting it...I really enjoyed it!!!

[bill99959]

all you guys are wrong Just get a stones book...............LOL

[gtrjoeles]

@bill99959 ..wow, a book huh? ...and you been playing guitar how long, I'm guessing 2 WHOLE years. Good advice though, I'm sure it's the one Keith Richard's wrote...LOL - just yankin' your chain. All my best ~ Joe

[ed0985587]

this sounds like so much work. more efficient after all the tuning work etc. i think i'll just stick to playing the hard way with barres lol. i hate alternate tuning. maybe because i don't understand it as much.

[gtrjoeles]

@ed0985587 I was afraid of alternate tunings also, but once I started playing around with them chords and scales made more sense to me. When you're ready you'll know and probably enjoy them ~ All my best ~ Joe

[ed0985587]

@gtrjoeles oh ya i understand the theory behind it and i know it makes a song sound more like the original and also makes certain chords easier to play on certain songs but i am so used to standard that it just seems like such a hassle to tune my guitar differently. i love playing smashing pumpkins but i hate tuning to play it. i just need to invest in a second guitar for other tuning.

[rockymtrocker]

Dynamite lesson-this tune was driving me crazy as I was trying to play in open G and it never sounded right! Thanks for this vid. I'm subing and FR'd you also please return the sub and FR. Also I am sending a video response very humbling LOL

[gtrjoeles]

@rockymtrocker I can understad that-glad to help ~ Thanks for the comment ~ Joe

[karllieb]

thx- I would surmise the higher sounding strings are the nashville tuning keef mentions. Wish they could do it like that live.

[Iror2012]

just wanted to thank you.

I am glad i found you on the tube. i am going to lean alot from you. its priceless information you are giving to the world.

Thanks Again!

[gtrjoeles]

@Iror2012 You are most welcome, glad to help - since I didn't have this tool growing up, it's the least I can do to help those that do ~ Joe

[Wolgalongse]

Crikey, mate, this is fantastic! Very well explained, and just spot on. Best by far

[gtrjoeles]

@Wolgalongse Thank you very much my friend ~ Joe

[bigbeemax]

There's nothing you can't do Joe! Superb.... Thanks again.... Brian

[dodgingaces]

Thank you so much sir, your tutorial was no less than perfect.

[gtrjoeles]

@dodgingaces Glad you like, I do appreciate you taking the time to comment.

[realdaveman1]

There are thousands of "Jumpin jack flash" guitar lessons on youtube and yours is by far the best most comprehensive one. Thanks!

[Avimessica]

Man, you are top notch!

Your version is the best I've heard and isprobably the correct one.

You should upload more stuff.

[Beatles1264]

Moi aussi, jaimerai avoir les tablatures, merci

[pachaguitar]

Bonjour.J'apprécie énormément votre façon de jouer,et le son est formidable!Pouvez-vous me dire comment vous accordez votre guitare?(désolé,je ne comprends ni ne parle anglais...) Mille mercis.

[gtrjoeles]

@pachaguitar Tune mi bémol 5 E sixième corde plat, B cinquième corde plat, E quatrième corde plat, plat E troisième corde, deuxième chaîne de si bémol et la première chaîne E plat. Il n'ya pas de tiers dans cette chanson. Le dossier est légèrement marquée de ton normal. Hope this helps mon ami!

[TheDiamond909]

excellent lesson mate, this has really helped me thanks

[hobbyrocker0308]

Job well done! I do believe some of those higher notes are acheived by a nashville tuning. i am note sure if he tuned that to open e flat a put a capo to make it sound tight as keith mentioned in an interview. However, yours is the most authentic so far!

[chest002]

@hobbyrocker0308 Hey rocker, I agree with you. I went and watched a Keith playing JJF in a video. It appears he has the capo at the 4th or 5th fret. So I wonder what tuning this can be. I bet I will find out. I know he uses capo at 7th fret normal tuning for midnight rambler, and capo at 4th fret g tuning for tumbling dice. This is a very good lesson and it works perfect. I just cant think of anything else that is played in this tuning. Maybe ron wood is playing in this tuning. interesting.

[karllieb]

@chest002

4th fret capo is for open g tuning....making it a b

[chest002]

@karllieb Oh yeah...that makes horse sense. Cool...Thanks.

[AgnosticFonts00]

I have my hand fulls in standard tunning. But good lesson. I made it a fav. Maybe when I change my strings I will play this song,which I love.

[coalsampler147]

thanks a ton dude!!keep the lessons comin'!!

[gtrjoeles]

Glad you like...

[kcuhcsniknej]

Holy cow! I've searched and searched for the correct way to do this. excellent lesson. I'm so happy. I knew this couldn't be too difficult, but the tuning is the whole deal. thank you so much

[eliocesaro]

[DrHogfan]

very good. not sure im capable of the tuning but thanks. Good teaching.
