This guitar lesson (more like a masterclass) showcases the incredible guitar skills of Guthrie Govan and his ability to step into almost any guitar style effortlessly. Watch as he breaks down classic Jimi Hendrix guitar techniques and habits in detail, showing you what we can learn from one of the greatest guitar players of all time - technically, two of them!

▶ Learn Sweep Picking with Guthrie Govan: www.licklibrary.com/learn/les...
Through this mini-masterclass in guitar technique, Govan demonstrates how Hendrix reinvented various aspects of the guitar, including rhythm and lead playing, and how guitarists can incorporate these techniques into their own playing style using the CAGED system and incorporating lead lines into our chords.
Watch as Govan shows us, mere guitar mortals, how Hendrix's rhythm playing was a source of fascination for guitarists everywhere, especially as it blurred the line between rhythm and lead. He highlights how Hendrix could play rhythm licks as part of his lead playing and vice versa, creating a fluid and organic sound that was completely unique to the 'Axis Bold As Love' guitarist. Govan also demonstrates how the CAGED system can be used to create Hendrix-style licks by breaking down the fretboard into different chunks and superimposing major pentatonic scale shapes over each section.
By breaking down Jimi Hendrix's guitar techniques step by step, Govan offers invaluable insights into how guitarists can improve their own playing and create a unique sound that draws on the legacy of Hendrix. Not to be missed if you want to learn more about Jimi Hendrix's technique!

Spot on. Hendrix's style was essentially playing rhythm guitar in a lead sort of manner. Those 2 & 3 note voicings or embellishments on major chord shapes became his signature sound. He was a soul player with a funky feel. Guthrie's example at 1:34 is a textbook page out of Jimi's book :)

Remember this about Jimi we only really had him for about 3 or 4 years. He had a pretty good body of work that still influences guitarists to this day. If he had lived whom knows what magic he had left in him to share. A lot of guitarists for years just concentrate on the playing only leaving the structure of a song to show their skills at playing. Jimi focused on performing his music, guitar and singing maybe doing some playing behind his head etc. There is a difference there and a lot more to concentrate on. Not to mention the beautiful songs he wrote as a whole not to just show off his jamming ability.

It all boils down to this really- hendrix was a brilliant musician and songwriter, a true creative genius. It blows my mind how he had no music theory, same with cats like Danny Gatton. Just awesome. Here's an interesting fact- JImi had synesthesia which means that when he heard sound and music he'd see colours aswell. So for us, a certain chord or progression might have been the colour blue for him

This is what I am trying to show my grandson who is learning to play. The same chord / solo theory has been applied before and after Jimi by many many guitarists. I always found it much more melodic and listenable. If this is tried, it will open a lot of doors to better soloing as opposed to scales only.

Despite the fact that I worship Hendrix and like Govan, Hendrix was not the first one to mix rhythm and melody... decades before him people like Django, or much earlier some unknown flamenco players, were doing that. Let's say that Hendrix made that playing style very famous for rock audiences and for the masses.
