  • If I could play like any guitarist in history, it would be Brian Setzer. He can play like anybody, and he can do it cleaner, better and make it swing! I have been hooked on this man since I was 9. What a freakin talent. And his demeanor is so down to earth. This kitten is smitten. Oh snap. I think I just came up with a song hook. Perhaps it will be my response song to Gina. When I was a kid, I thought he was singing to me. It's my name...and one of my favorite songs ever.

  • "its not that difficult you can do it" <------- this statement is only true if your first name is Brian and your last name is Setzer

  • @andreadakis24 start playing jazz. its great for virtuosity

  • Wow! A theory lesson from Brian Setzer is like career advice from Donald Trump. Cherish it, people!!!!

  • This reminds me of George Benson's lesson DVD and the "We Want Cantor" story from his father...and the joy of mixing it up with some passing tones :-)

  • Wow, this is great stuff. Very practical!

  • Gretsches, Bassmans and Nortons, oh my!

  • gotta love Brian's ball sack.

  • Brian is in essence explaining the tri-tone substitution which is found on the b5 (flat 5) of the A7, in Jazz this is referred to as an A7 Altered chord.

  • @DJstoopnig You must be guitar badass then.

  • "It's not that difficult. You can do it..." Yep. Sure we can...

  • I tought him that.

  • aw man!!!! brian mate....you are thee most awesome guitarist!!!!! love you to bits

  • I really enjoy your lessons, they're solidifying ideas that I could not seem to get since I don't have a teacher. "It's not that difficult, you can do it"

  • I would pay fortune for Brian Setzer to be my guitar teacher!

  • @MikeBsMovies but i mean he kept going to different scales without saying what he was doing he just hummed it, he could have made 100 times easier to explain

  • @TheThepurplebird man shut the hell up. Yeah I know the Eb9 could also be called a trisub but no need to be a pretentious dick about it like half of the people who go to my music school

  • I have been playing for about 40 yrs and I think he is the very best meld of rock/jazz/blues hillbilly kicker music I`ve ever heard in my life!

  • Dony play guitar! but this guy makes me wish I did! This guy has SO much MUSICAL Ability!

  • this really is not that complicated he is just acting like an idiot and making it confusing i understood 90% percent of that and i have only been musical for ~ four years

  • What's he talking about?

  • and thats where master class begin.

  • it is soooo easy if you are Brian Setzer, but its not believe me, it needs years of studding and practice.

  • he's one of my favorite musicians! id love to see him live some time, that would be incredibly awesome!

  • 1:14 part of the solo to stray cat strut !

  • Give me that amp please lol 6G6 circuits are the best man, I have a bassman 100, which is a very clean chimey amp, and it gets very compressed when cranked, but the blackface style are more harsh, and that is also awesome, is the blonde good at breaking up, bassmans are the best at natural breakup PERIOD.
