Agreed! Thanks Damian, for revealing that you once struggled with this technique and it took a long time to get it down, that gives me hope, cause right now it does feel very foreign to me, since I seem to pick every note when I do leads, so this pull up stuff is new to me but I will continue working on it and see what happens and thank you for your great patient teaching skills and good camera close-ups to see what you doing, not to mention starting slow and easy to really figure out what you’re doing, that is very helpful. 🙏🙏😊

It's funny, I was just working on an Eddie Cochran song with these kind of pull offs and I was struggling to get my speed up and I needed some encouragement, and you delivered. Thank you for the lessons and the good will!!! It's inspiring to hear that you struggled with pull offs once when you do them like they're a walk in the park.

Really enjoy the lessons Damien! The first solo from Race With The Devil was one of the first rockabilly solos I tried to learn…may have bit off more than I could chew at the time lol. Appreciate the time you put into the videos. Do you use flatwound strings? Any “gotchas” to using them over round?

Thanks Damian. I was struggling with the 875 pull off in twenty flight rock. Followed you since the Ollie Vee lesson. I can't thank you enough. You have so many great guitars. Can I ask your opinion of that gretch single cut? I have been looking at the 5220.

Pull offs on top two strings pretty easy now, G string bit hit and miss but the thicker three pretty much no chance at performance speed. I'd love to be able to do that Danny Cedrone lick on all six but have had to resort to just sliding my finger!! Any tips or is it just practice practice practice?

Damian- I’m confused. The chord shape you are showing in the lesson tab isn’t making sense to me. You’re showing the 1st and second strings fretted on 8, and 3rd and 4th strings on 7. But that makes the third string a D# which is flatting the third. Isn’t this making a Cm7? Anyway I can’t make it sound right. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance.

@Damianblf 6 ай бұрын

The chord shape I am playing is a C69 chord. The notes I'm playing are A, D, G & C

bruh: I have followed your goofy, quirky, but always informed, passionate, historically based guitar videos since your great take on George Harrison's early work. I absolutely commend your growth into jazz -- which a number of the best rockabilly players had grounding in via the likes of Charlie Christian, and indeed that jazz sensibility influenced all of Harrison's stages (from "T'ill There Was You" to his post-Beatles "Learning How to Love You," et al.). Your forays into jazz solo guitar, drawing from players ranging from Tal Farlow to that monster virtuoso Joe Pass, shows how you've grown and deepened as a guitarist, a guitar tutor, and artist in your own right. Luv it all, Damian: the quirk, the tutorials, the playing, the jazzbo shout-outs: this be good rockin' tonite!
