Simple good music for everybody, no pretentious crap, that's what the hype it's all about. I hope they become even more famous while making "ordinary riffing".

Andy nails it 100% of the time, every time.

Best tutorial I've seen on this song yet. Best match for most accurate sound

Thanks for this! Miss your tutorials Andy, hope all is well!!

how can a perfect guitar channel get even better!?

Thanks Andy! Love The BKs for their fuzzy riff based songs. This is perfect!

That's cool.

I love your site, love your selection, and when I gets some clams, I will be raiding your website! LOL!

I just have to have my riff of the day. Thanks Andy.....

Thank You. Thank you so so much :')

Yes! A personal lesson from Andy! *kneel down*

Paul Rudd's a great teacher! Keep em coming! :)

Übercool. Thanks!

That's a buttery-ass tone for the bridge on a tele. I like

don't know what everyone's moaning about, you can see his fingers and hear which strings are played very clearly. Use your ears and eyes people!? people used to learn guitar by listening to records over and over and seeing people play live once or twice if they were lucky ;o

more and more and more!!!

I like this very much :)

Oh yeah...Love the Tele. I have the 52 reissue butterscotch too. :)

Daily riffs? Nice!

I just fell in luv :3

fantastic Andy, any chance of something from "Magic Potion" such as Goodbye Babylon, thats a great track and could be a good way to move some trem pedals or similar. Also the tone on "Modern Times" is a crunch tone I cant even begin to imagine what kind of pedal would produce it. Would be grateful for some insight or tips. Thanks again.

Very cool! Love the lesson of the day. Now we need some Radio Moscow. Densaflorativa perhaps?

cool man

Mother of god...can I subscribe twice?

More Black keys MOAAR:3

best thing to be is a teacher

nice!

care to share what cheaper pedals will get this sound? I've tried using OD + regular muff and it's still not quite there

i knew there'd be a keys lesson quickly

Can you do Zeppelin's the Rover? I bet you could dial in an awesome phased fuzz tone for that one. Also, the solo sections (for tunes that have them) would be awesome!

i have a Germanium Big Muff it handles it quite well :)

ProGuitarShop, thank you for making this great riff videos with andy playing right handed. For me as leftie, easy, i can just look and mirror copy it ;-) ( this must be so hard for righthanded people :# )

Andy and Rebecca Dirks should be KZfaq's prom king and queen...

Awwww yeeeeeee

what's the big fuzz about knowing about them before or after they were popular?

Andy, which telecaster are you using?

Just get an Earthquaker Devices Hoof! That will definitely do the trick. I bought mine from PGS and it sounds AWESOME for Black Keys stuff. :-)

Is there another way to get that sound? I cant spend 300$ on a pedal..I heard Dan uses a Russian Big Muff (the green one) but they are pretty rare and also expensive, and the standard Muff doesnt get me there...any suggestions?

I don't even like the Black Keys but i wanted to hear andy play!

sweet : D

nice

yeah!! andy is good XD

the Bass Big Muff is a close sound to the classic "Green Russian" cost is about the same as a stock Big Muff Pi from EH and yes you are also correct Dan uses a Russian Big Muff Pi.

ARC effects big green pi, earthquaker devices hoof, or wren & cuff tall font will all get you that sound for less than $200. You could even just buy the muff half of the twosome (musket or blunderbuss) for less than $200

I feel like he’s holding the “mm da mm da mm da” part just before the verse just a smidge longer than on the record but that’s just me being a butthead this is absolutely great tone and playing. Thank you for this video

Is it in standard tuning?

what the heck? did you just change the nut on that tele between the intro and the lesson? because in the intro it had an earvana nut and from then on there was a regular uncompensated nut. the grain on the body looks identical. what's going on, andy?

is that a baja tele?

Andy, giving free guitar lessons? Pinch me, I'm dreaming...

Yup.

The tone is very similar!

hey, can somebody please tell me in which key this song is? thanks!.

You never write guitar modell used in your videos ! And that is tthe most important thing to us : )

He used A Fulltone Soul Bender on this song

Zvex Fuzz Factory will do the trick or just lots of gain and a boost will get that muddy sound

there are a ton of russian big muff clone pedals out there on the net, hell even pgs sells a ton of muff-syle pedals that will get you that tone!!

I'd say that Earthquaker Devices Hoof Fuzz or the Tall Font Russian would suit better. I love Andy's demos and my humble opinion is that he did a real better version of this song on the Hoof Fuzz demo. Not hating though, real proper respect for doing these , I hope you guys keep carrying this. Thanks!

Awesome lesson aside, that's one sick nasty fuzz tone. Andy has such killer taste in tone.

Andy, please tab and backingTrack !!! Nice lesson

Thumbs up for more black keys lessons..

sure is

Heavier distortion and it will be killer!!!!

The Jam Pedals Red Muck is the best clones of a russian muff I have heard

If you're familiar at all with soldering... building a Muff-like circuit is easy and cheap.

tell me too please!!!!!

i have a way huge swollen pickle and it sounds just like this at low settings

Unless you're a serious gear geek -- nothing wrong with being one, of course -- the difference in tone between an American Big Muff and a Russian Big Muff is probably going to strike you as pretty minor. Aside from the playing itself, playing through a good amp is probably the most important part of the tone in the video, followed by the nice guitar, followed by the particular fuzz pedal used.

I like it but some instruction as to frets, strings and chords would sure help.
