Each week we offer our students a Livestream Q&A where they get to deep dive into all things music with an expert in the craft.
This week we had world-renowned, Andy Wood blow our minds with a variety of practical tips and exercises you can use to expand your view and usage of pentatonics.
If you don't know Andy, he is recognized as part of the forefront of this generation’s top influential guitarists.
Currently touring as a solo guitarist and mandolinist along with working on a host of additional musical projects, Andy is also performing live with his own band promoting CAUGHT BETWEEN THE TRUTH AND A LIE, the double album which showcases his vast musical influences and abilities.
Andy has toured professionally with a wide range of acts, including most recently Gary Allan, LOCASH, Rascal Flatts, Scott Stapp, and Sebastian Bach. Looking for an outlet for styles other than hard rock, Andy also released his debut solo album A DISCONCERTING AMALGAM. This instrumental record covers a broad range of genres including fusion, rock, metal, and acoustic bluegrass. Andy Wood is known for blurring the lines of preconceived genres.
This is just a small excerpt from the class but it's filled with tips that will really help you design an exercise to improve the technique and add some diversity to your practice.

Just want to say, I discovered Andy via surfing KZfaq for anything guitar. I’m 62 yrs old and have hit more plateaus than I can count and have been on one for quite a while now. This video along with several additional videos by Andy totally crushed my plateau and opened the door to a whole arena accessible options that I couldn’t grasp from other videos. Great teacher!

So good. I analyze my own playing looking for the rules behind what naturally comes out. These Andy Wood videos seem in sync with the ideas I am trying to explore and articulate. I have come to the idea that great players (alas not me!) build technique out of their musicality not the other way round. First comes the music then the technique and Andy has it. These videos are like hanging out with a player who will help you understand your own path not just copy theirs. Brilliant.😊

When I learned to play lead (1973 or so) there was no internet, no KZfaq - just your ears. So with no real instruction, and just copying what I heard, I learned pentatonic scales (of course, I had no idea they were called that until many years later). But I always learned patterns that went up and down the neck - never a box shape in a certain position. Somehow I got it in my head that "the goal" was to always play notes 2 frets apart. The only way to do that is to keep shifting position up and down the neck at the same time as going from lower strings to higher strings. It was a few years later I started using the traditional box positions and doing note bending when I started trying to copy Johnny Winter. Another fun fact - I had no idea there were choices of string gauges for years. The guitar I bought had heavy strings with a wound g string. I was in utter awe of the way Johnny could bend notes. When I discovered light gauge strings it was like a whole new universe. Seems funny today, but back then everything you learned was by word of mouth (which slowed me down a lot cause I didn't know any other guitar players🙂)

Andy is so modest about being a world class bad ass and one of the most innovative music thinkers in the world. Makes me feel good I got his compressor pedal shipped to my house today. Suhr wood shop comp. really bad ass pedal. I had a fat general on my board that got kicked off for the wood shed. I never in a million thought I would be bumping that pedal off at anytime. Thanks Andy !!! Half the price too

Man, every time he does something EJ style it makes me want to play. The tone is so spot on! And it’s crazy because he can get that through any one of his guitars. Andy, what’s the formula for that EJ lead sound? I’m going through a kemper😉

Again, great video Andy. I was wondering why Takahash would suggest a chord suggestion like Ab. This may have moved the whole scope of the video out of the range for a large number of your viewing audience. I love your videos . . . . . I guess we must challenge ourselves to make the learning process real.

For intermediate players, the slower playing is instructive. Otherwise, it’s basically showing off and so fast as to not be useful as instruction. Obviously an incredible picker but intermediates would have a hard time learning from this.
