http://www.steviesnacks.com - If you've always wondered how to play those fat, thick, Hendrix and SRV style chords, this lesson will take you through the chord sequence used in the original ballad I wrote and used to demonstrate my Fender Blues Junior Amp. This style of playing is a mix of chords and lead techniques and when played correctly, it results in a very soulful rhythm style.

In this lesson, I walk you through the basic chords that the sequence uses, and then elaborate on how I connect them with Hendrix style hammer-ons and little lead licks to transition from chord to chord. Lastly I talk about the important of timing of certain key notes in the sequence, and the importance of accenting certain notes and beats in order to bring out the most soulful elements of this playing style.

  • These lessons are tweeners.......too hard for beginners and too slow for advanced

  • @mojosaur The correct term is intermediate, and yes, this is neither for beginners or advanced players.

  • you made me watch ten minutes of what i could have looked up on a chord chart only to tell me to buy your lesson?! come on bro i was wantin to see the good stuff!!!

  • @leverenz19 Yes, I apologize for making you watch this. My charisma has been known to do that. I cannot help it, I just love to teach, and sometimes people cannot tear their eyes and ears away.

    Just so we're on the same page.....are you saying that you're _not_ interested in buying the full lesson, because it sounds like you might be, if it were free, which it is not.

  • i cant find this lesson on the website??

  • @fastgroove It's the second lesson in the Original Ballad Series.

  • Very close to each other, if you want to play like SRV, you gotta understand what goes on with Hendrix.
