A simple lesson I made for Ibanez covering how to play Country style licks. Some easy routes to playing different styles of music, some nice little tricks and pedal steel bends too. Give me a thumbs up if you found it useful folks :-)

I love country style guitar. Albert Lee, Marty Stuart, John Jorgensen, Kenny Vaughan, are some of my fave players. Wish I could play like they do.

Met Jerry Donahue a number of times with the Hellecasters nicest guy ever had some time to kill and gave me a 2 hour lesson. I was on heaven And will always be grateful for the life experience. Sadly Jerry suffered a stroke and is unable to play. A sheer humble genius.

I have been playing guitar for almost 40 years and Jerry is one of the very best IMO . He has played for so many other artists but my favourite era is when he played in Fotheringay with Sandy Denny .

Jerry also loved richard thompson and one day we were talking guitars and Lenny Breau came up . I ended up sending Jerry Live at Shelly’ manhole which he loved. I saw Lenny many dozens of times in Toronto in the early 70’s . Genius

Hi Lee. I too have that cd. I became phone friends with Danny and he told me Lenny was his favourite. Danny told me had had hundreds of hours of recorded music of him and Danny. We'll never hear it unfortunately. Even though I saw Danny about 6 times live I was too shy to introduce myself but we did have hour long guitar tone talks😄 Saw him at the Horseshoe in Toronto and Sonny Landreth opened. Holey Moley

Liked.. Your technique is very good. I have been neglecting my guitar for awhile and you were in my you tube list. I have been playing since 62. Started on kazoo and uke. Then acoustic and electric guitar learning Mr guitar licks. Then 5 years of piano lessons. Then paid for my gas giving guitar lessons. Tried wind and drums.. Not my forte. 15 years ago stated teaching 5 string banjo out of a book called (you can play banjo.) Not that I like music. Love to play the claw and Brent mason leads. My amps need some TLC. Was a TV tech in the Eighties and and nineties. Probably my most favorite music is chickenpickin.

@freecitizen2760

When you bend a string while keeping another note just fretted, the fretted note will go flat if the guitar has an unlocked vibrato bar. As you bend the note, to some degree, the increased pressure will cause the strings to go flat. For that reason, and for the sound of the bridge single-coil as well as the brass saddles, Country works the absolute best on a Telecaster. Those locking nuts also steal a little tone.
@meowwoem6372
@meowwoem6372 4 жыл бұрын
you're partially right. when doing bends on a floating bridge, like an Ibanez, I have to hold the bar to stop the bridge moving. that helps remove the out of tune issue. as for the saddles on a tele. bollocks, mate. all the pickups do is convert the string vibration into noise. the pickups don't give a fuck what material the bridge is made of. any audible to you difference, directly to you, bridge material makes, is just that. it doesn't translate/transfer via electromagnetic response. you have to remember a string is sat between two points. that tone wood thing is bullshit too.

Meow woeM : When I was a much younger guitarist, and when they first came out around 1980, I had two Floyd-Rose vibrato assemblies on Warmouth parts guitars. I also, at one point, had something called a Trem-Setter (Stew-Mac, around $20) which counteracted that tendency to drop in pitch when bending. It probably worked ok, but it was such a pain. String breaks were problematic and it destroyed the tone of the guitar. I since then learned how to set up a Strat with a stock arm and block, and I use it with locking tuners (but no locking nut). - Now onto the subject of bridges and tone woods: I’ve been listening to these debates for about 50 years; I’ll assume that’s longer than you, and that’s no dis. This goes on in the drum world (maple, birch, etc.), - and in the tube amp world (tubes vs. transistors vs. digital modelling, and resistors like carbon, carbon comp, metal film, etc.- and caps (polypropalene, polystyrene, silver mica, ceramic, etc - and tubes etc., etc., etc,) - and in the recording world ... and in pretty much every area of music. You don’t think there’s a sound difference between brass, steel, wood, bone, etc.? If a bridge or nut is not slotted properly, you know that can cause a nasty sound. Why wouldn’t the material also contribute to the tone? Watch some Warmouth KZfaq videos where they compare various woods. I have ... I don’t think any of it is bogus (other than say “oxygen-free cables” and that kind of thing). But metals, woods, components of all kinds definitely each make a small contribution to your overall sound. Change one resistor in a tube amp to metal film, and you won’t even notice it. Change them all, and you will sterilize the amp. Builders don’t advertise carbon comp. resistors for no reason. Those in the know want them. Same with the one steel saddle on my Tele bridge, it’s just a little brighter than the brass. And listen to Tele guys talk about Glendale vs. Callahan bridges ... those things can totally change how a Tele sounds. Just keep an open mind, ok? Don’t get played, but be receptive. Let your ears decide.

This is great Lee thanks at last something for country enthusiasts! Can there really be that many metal players out there. I have to admit I'm struggling a bit with the pedal trick as I play 11s and my fingers are strong but dropping down a gauge would sort it. Great country tones on a guitar you wouldn't expect. Can you say what it is and what you are playing through?
