Here's a niche for you to stand out, shred chords like BK, its almost like he's playing a different instrument.

Looks like Douglas Reach and Barney Kessel have polar opposite personalities, they are both great though, in their own way.

" just because you can play what you hear (in your head), doesn't mean it has any musical value" That's real talk right there!

Yo, yall.....I got hip to Barney Kessel recently, so I barely know him. But I know that his playing is phenomenal AF. And these lessons he gave us are nice. And then I got to this point in the lessons series, and he mentions "Now I'm gonna play some chords and I want you to solo over them." Can someone tell me why I had to hold back tears when he said that? 😭😭😭

Goodness that ending etude is quite the pinky workout, with the Gmin11 (sub. for C)
@Skizze373 ай бұрын
Tip for anyone trying to play the Fm11/C (sub. for Bb7) @ 12:26, try fingering the C and F with the middle (doublestop), semi-barre with the index across four strings from the G# to the high F, then the D# with the ring and G with the pinky.

Barney was the best and also as a person. I met him several times near the end of his career in San Diego, CA. He was always so kind and generous. A true gentleman.

by the way, I am obsessed with the intro theme of this vodeo, playing all the time with thumb in C (6th string) and being able to move rest of fingers so loose to play different chords and arrangements while thumb is fixed on C. Anyone can do that? I can barely do some chords like that and the first strings is so hard to make it sound. Maybe my hands are too small or he has realy big hands. Any of you can play that way?
@rumarkvideo5 ай бұрын
It's classic Barney and it's great! Ernesto, if you want to practice this technique break it down into smaller more manageable ideas. Perhaps it's easier to move down to A on the 5th Fret. Start with just getting the bass rhythm going. Then use an A major chord (just bar the first two strings and then 2nd finger on the 3rd string and 3rd finger on the 4th string). Then play that chord and the A in the bass on the 5th fret with your thumb. Once you have the chord and bass sounding the way you like, add a simple D chord using the 3rd finger to bar on the 7th fret, Play around with the ideas and see if you can get it sounding the way you like.

@@rumarkvideo Thanks you very much! Very useful information. I felt it was easy on that zone of the neck, yes, but I see he plays that kind of 9th chord often and others with harder fingering. I will try to feel better into this easier exercises you say. Thanks a lot, you are so kind!
