Jim Campilongo is one of the finest guitar players around. I only discovered him in early 2010 when he released his album Orange which a lot of friends were raving about. It's a really awesome guitar album and so when I was in New York in November 2010 I hooked with Jim for an interview for you guys.

Once we got chatting it just kept going and ended up being nearly 50 minutes, but it was all too cool to cut. He knows a lot of great stuff and there is a lot to learn in this...

So go check out his album Orange, and he also does some very cool lessons by mail and download from his web site:

http://www.jimcampilongo.com

He's also playing every Monday night at The Living Room (Ludlow St, Lower East Side) with his trio which is real awesome too.

I know the quaility is not so hot, I didn't have my usual camera with me (too big) so it was the first time using my JVC HM1, which did a great job considering we didn't have any lighting and it was getting dark.

Full support at the justinguitar web site where you will find hundreds of lessons on a wide range of subjects, and all the scales and chords that you will ever need! There is a great forum too to get help, no matter what the problem.

And it is all totally free, no bull. No sample lessons, no memberships, no free ebook. Just tons of great lessons :)

To get help with this lesson (and for further info and tabs), find the Lesson ID in the video title (like ST-667 or whatever) and then look it up on the Lesson Index page of justinguitar.com

Have fun :)

  • At 2:15 How does he get that sound? Is it just reverb and sustain?

  • @thescowlingschnauzer it's called a tone swell - we talks about it more later!

  • Please invest in a few microphones. Great interview, but the traffic is as louder than the dialogue.

  • Very nice. Love the bit about traveling light

  • I bought a couple of lessons of Jim about a year ago and chatted during our email correspondence. He is a really down to earth human as well as being a terrifying player. Great, great guy. Thanks for this super upload.
