Lmfao seriously?!!!

@@zenzenzen4741 tis no laughing matter

@@zenzenzen4741 No - I don't get this C pentatonic tuning at all; everything sounds horrible. Emperor's New Clothes springs to mind.

too bad im not a guitarist just a really bi-polar bassist ala brufotrd.

3:55 for those looking. I did. I am glad that I did.

Definitely this! Great idea Mike.

I never took a GC course, so untutored, it took me about 25 years to figure out the idea of "it's not moving the pick in downstrokes and upstrokes, you Release the pick and Return [with almost no effort]". Now I have to figure out the left hand secrets

I was there, too, Joe! You guys were great!

Well James how's it going. Looks like you had a great holiday!

Jamie, 9th November is fine for me. Not cool though but I'll probably need to be at work on Friday for a few dollars. If you can please let me know if you want to join me then I can give you a lesson plan. Thanks for letting me know. Thanks

James!

Without detracting from your previous comment, in which I fully agree, I would add that in this case (at least the one that Robert used) it is a guitar designed by him and an Argentine luthier (Eduardo Beaudoux) for the guitar craft/guitar circle courses. But yeah, those ovations legend are superb. cheers!

@@tomasbarrios97 The ones with the plastic bowl on the back are awful to play sitting down, constantly trying to slide away from your body.

The players are great but I hate the sound of the ovations, horrible, horrible

I know, I feel like I'm ripping him off for ill gotten gains. Getting to watch Robert Fripp sit and practically tutor me for free is unbelievable.

Are there any women reading this? Have any guys out there ever personally known a female fan of Fripp's music? They must exist, but as time goes on, I think I might be more likely to spot a unicorn.

Robert and Toyah did a lockdown video where they imagine a woman dancing at a King Crimson gig. It's hilarious.

@@briteness haha a very amazing female musician I was dating once commented when I was listening to level 5 the meltdown version in the car "WOW, this is so masculine." I think when a lot of people first hear the more tritone heavy KC tracks it's just so alien.

To her defense, though it might have just been my ears, but Robert's guitar seemed slightly out of tune at first. There seemed to be a little more dissonance than there should have been. Nevertheless, Robert is a guitarist's guitarist. For those who think he's a bit too mathematical in his approach, listen to some of the solos he did recently in the standard E tuning. Brilliant!

You should make a cocktail called grounds for divorce

Yeah, he is a sharply-dressed fellow. Musical AND sartorial goals, I guess.

Hello Ricky. The guitar in the video is a Beadoux custom guitar made in Argentina. The Breedlove Thinline Guitar will finally be officially released on Nov 1, 2022 and should be available through all shops that carry Breedlove Guitars. - Paul Richards

@@CaliforniaGuitarTrioCGT - _Bonjour_ Paul, and _merci_ for the info! Hey, if you get the opportunity, pretty please poke Robert and relay to him that the Glen Cove hootenanny ought to be a yearly thing ongoing into near-perpetuity. It was a pleasure meeting you last year, and if you were able to go this year I hope it was a great experience!

@@CaliforniaGuitarTrioCGT - Hey Paul, sorry to trouble you: does Robert’s custom Beaudoux have a bowl-back? I can’t quite tell from this video’s angle, but I thought you might know. My Ovation 1867 is slowly driving me crazy, even after reintonation and a few further adjustments … and although I’ll always love it, in the past this level of frustration has signaled it was time to switch guitars. I’ve saved up a little dough over the years (basically I quit driving, which has reduced my expenses tremendously!) so I thought I might write to Beaudoux and say “Qué tal, me llamo Daniel, y yo quisiera una guitarra como la del estimado Sr. Fripp,” and at least get an estimate of what that might run me. I’m sure they’d remember what they’ve done for Robert, but just to be safe I thought I’d gather as many details about his Beaudoux as I could. I’m sure the Breedlove guitars are also awesome, and I’ll consider them as well. But I figured if I’m in for a bit, I may as well be in for a mile - plus, being from Venezuela, I feel an obligation to shop from my distant Argentinian cousins - so it can’t hurt to contact Beaudoux and at least make inquiries. Thanks for your help Paul! And if there’s anything further about Robert’s guitar which I ought to consider, please don’t hesitate to let me know! 😘

I might mention that it is no obstacle to work.🥳

Pffft Bugger off lol

@@itookallthenames Went to your channel to look at your amazing guitar playing, so that I could judge your comment. No content. At least I can play guitar to a reasonable level to have an opinion, plenty of vids on my channel.

@@DjNikGnashers now look mate, if you are going to say Robert Fripp “sounds like shit” you’d better get ready for some eggs, whether you can play or not.

@@itookallthenames Music is subjective to the listener. Frip made some amazing music with Brian Eno, and I did say he is a talented guitar player, but in this video I thought it sounded like shit. I play guitar, I have qualifications in music, and have been a DJ since 1980. I think I have every right to voice an opinion. You have your opinion. So if you're going to tell me to 'bugger off' then you have to expect a comment in return, so yes, you bugger off.

No, it’s different, I think its C D G A E G look up “new standard tuning”

They're magic..
