Sir, you are a treasure. I'm 65 and playing sax as much as I can. I was a music major back in the day, even a 1/2 scholarship. Long story. I pour thorough your stuff and try to get even the smallest part into my playing. Thank you.

That's great - learning from Bach to John Williams to Pink Floyd to Pat Metheny - the gems of music. Thank you very much Rick Beato. Thanks for your pedagogy.

Pat's guitar breakdown in 'Third Wind' is a sublime example of this approach I think :)

I can't even explain how much I dug seeing a 8 min video from you. Thanks so much for making it short. Absolutely love your stuff!

For a Pianist your guitar playing is better than most guitar players

I swear at the end of the scale i heard the word "BASS"

I need to add stoicism to my playing.

That is really cool. I can learn all of those notes but I feel the need to get the chords figured out first. I am just like that. It helps me to know where the heck I am. Great video. I'm going to tear it apart for a couple of days. Thanks for posting it.

Rick - loved how you captured Metheny's sound here. Would love to hear your thoughts on how you conceptualize applying these ideas while the changes are flying by like Metheny does, rather than over a static chord. Perhaps a Part II...?

Yeeeessss! Love following u man..thanks for yr lessons and passion. Great teacher! Fast, then slow, then music and tab..All round teaching not many of u around. Mad respect bro

This is awesome! I've always loved Pat Metheny's chromaticism. It sounds like a roller coaster getting ready to leave the tracks but all the while staying on top of the chord tones in a weird but musical way. I gota learn this lick.

Cool lesson! Very much appreciated, i really enjoyed it! Thank you Rick, Best wishes to y'all!

Thanks Rick this is so helpful, bless for your great job 🙏

Stuff like this is helping me break out of old stale patterns. Thanks so much!

Taking a solo to the next level.

Thank you, Rick! Chord names on screen are very helpful!

haha that is one hell of a lick! also Pat Martino is an absolute master at this type of playing

Rick, you are no mere mortal. Thanks for another great lesson.

Great explanation of how solo is moving in and out of the key, and the mini progressions.

I like chromaticism it gets me out of troubling scales.

Could you please do a video on transcribing solos?

Dude...you SHRED !

Great playing Rick! Thank you for the music.

Excellent lesson Rick. Thank you!

Kurt rosenwinkel is great at comping between melodic lines

Thanks for posting this and the transcription

Nice lesson! Actually, I should say nice lessons, because it contains at least a half dozen fingering and phrasing concepts that are really useful for double-time jazz lines.

Very interesting, a different way to play chromaticisms is the Pat Martino playing with all staccato phrases and alternate picking.

Thanks Rick ! Inspiration & instruction

By far one of your best videos...........rc

Mil Gracias Master!

This is fabulous!

this is a great study…thx rick!!!

I loved the pentatonic video, i nowtice Bb pentatonic is over A9 that is an altered sound I also noticed Wes liked to use the minor Blues scale over a V chord insted of alt Vic Juris was also good at this kind of Metheny thing , anybody looking for text

Thanks so much rick, you dont have to do these vids but we really appreciate the time you put into spreading the knowledge. What programs does pat use to make his guitar sound like anyother instrument? Or does it have to be a midi guitar

Rick - can you do a video on guitar articulations? For example, legato: hammer-ons, pull-offs, slides, and how to best use them in different styles of music. In your video, many of the hammer-ons, etc. start on a weak beat, and help create a certain stylistic, jazzy feel. How do you approach playing legato on fingerstyle acoustic/nylon string guitar when transcribing music originally written for instruments that can play very long, smooth legato lines, like on the violin (e.g. Bach violin sonatas and partitas)? It can be very difficult or impractical to get a smooth legato when changing strings.

that's a badass lick!

awesome! thanks a lot Rick!

John Stowell is very at that !

I love that guitar!

This is my favorite (#1) lesson of yours Mr. Beato, thanks for sharing the details! How much is the Beato book? Hope you are well God loves you deeply Shalom 🎸 🔊🏞️🏔️⛰️🎊🎇🎉🎆✨🐕🎈

Quality Info Rick.

You Rock! When i get out of this hole I'll buy even the Rick Beato mug.

Love this one 🎶🤘

Fantastic!

...респект Вам,маестро...!👏👏👏

Thanks!!

Rick, great lesson. Would you mind saving the gp version in a lower version of gp than 7? I downloaded a 30 day version and saved it as gp5 and it works fine except for not bringing over the standard notation... I need to save for my Pro Tools license... lol

Hi, Rick. Can you do some more instruction a the subject of self comping ?

rick, man. i just loooove your sloppiness on the axe :D are you always lifting the fingers like that, or is it so we can see better how u play it?

Very Nice!

very nice LP

Very Jerry Garcia. Love it thank you

Please Please, a video on kurt rosenwinkel!!! Thanks :)

Hey Rick, are you a guitarist who plays piano or a pianist who plays guitar?

That's more like it, at least I can understand it. Great

Hey Rick I can't wait to practice some chromatic lines. Can you please drag Oz noy into an appearance on your channel.

Wish these focused more on the concepts/theory than the guitar technique

Aww yiss with the tabs and everything!! Thanks Rick! Does the Beato Book have a lot of specific examples with tabs/sheet music like this or is it more just general theory info? Might pick it up as a Christmas present to myself.

Holy chops, Rick!

And all this happens on a Amin7 chord? What is the rationale behind all this notes considering that what they learn at school is "on Amin7 play the Amin7 arpeggio"...

Hi Rick! What model is that guitar, it sounds amazing! Is it short scale? I heard in your video about Gibson that you can get the intonation right with short scale guitars.

Pretty hard to get right on a four-string bass. BUT I WILL ! :)

Rick, I Love you, man. Do KZfaq have any online Guitar Course?

so basically you play a chord, then you choose a scale and play the notes of that scale, and then you play the next chord. sometimes you add chromatic notes that are not in the scale you play.

The slow version was hip .

There something wrong with file extension for the Guitar Pro file. There is no .gp it's either .gpx .gp3, .gp4, .gp5 and a few more. Could you please correct it? Thx

Can anyone suggest me any good chromatic soloing metheny album? Something i should check out in this kind of fusion style?

3:03 Theses are kind of incels

I whis this guy was my teacher

fantastic video, great playing & very good minds about the idea, Rick, 1.000 thanks!!!! My question: how can pat play only over Am7, and think about so much different and outside harmonies in that speed. is it totally flow? how long do you thinke, he looks forward for the lines? what brain do a player need for this...:-)

Is there a PDF associated with this?
