thank you for this !!!! big boss !!!!

Awesome lesson thanks for making this

Bro ur literally elliott smith. u sound EXACTLY like him when u sing 😭😭

Tabs or tutorial?

Great song, thank you!

Great job brother

when you started singing 🤯🤯🤯 oh my god you sound so good!!! your voice is such gift

Perfect, thanks. I've been looking at ultimate guitar tabs, but they have all power chords. I can hear there's more subtlety than that. Thanks for picking this out.

Hi, what is your setup? Do you use any pedals here?

Bro, you nailed it! I know how incredibly hard it can be to make YOUR playing sound like Elliott's. But you did it. I once did a little tutorial, I guess, of the solo from "The Biggest Lie." www.google.com/search?q=the+biggest+lie+solo+chad+smith&oq=the+biggest+lie+solo+chad+smith&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyBggAEEUYOTIGCAEQRRhAMgYIAhBFGEAyBggDEEUYQNIBCDQyNThqMGo3qAIAsAIA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#fpstate=ive&vld=cid:54f01868,vid:qOpclD7GgZo,st:0

Amazing tutorial- throughout the whole thing I was thinking ‘how the hell did Elliott come up with this?’ It’s quite mind-boggling to think that someone can have such a knowledge of the fretboard, especially in such an unusual tuning

I could not crack the code on reading the tab for this song that I love so much. Thank you for this simple and straightforward breakdown, I can now work on enjoying it on a different level!

Btw, I had a question (this is my 2nd comment). So I played guitar with a pick from the day I started at 14 til I was 27 roughly. And now I'm 33, I have nearly completely stopped using a pick in order to push myself to become more proficient playing without a pick.. I kinda languished from 27-32 and didn't take learning fingerstyle as seriously as I took learning all the different techniques with a pick when I Was 14 and had all the time in the world. Don't get me wrong, forcing myself to play everything I know without a pick and to improv and song-write without a pick has absolutely improved my playing. But I have made WAY more improvement in just the last 8-10 months of taking finger plucking really seriously, and learning lots of Elliott's songs with heavy use of finger picking like Angeles, than I had made during the 5-ish years from 27-32. What I wanted to ask 1st is if you started fingerpicking or with a pick? Or did you try to learn both when you started guitar? But more importantly, I wanted to know how long you have fingerpicking? Did you have any practice techniques specifically for improving your right hand finger picking along the way?

"I wish that car had never been discovered" is another one of my favorite Elliott lyrics.. Its bittersweet, the vehicle for along with lines like "Shiva Opens her arms now, to make sure I don't get too far" , which I will remember to my dying day because of how vivid and powerful a visual that line creates.

I have this guitar since 2012 still. Great guitar has aged beautifully. Discontinued long ago.

Compressor. use compressor my friend

I love Elliot smith but open c tuning is hard for my brain to adjust too!

Yeah just a disclaimer.. if using a tuner to tune to this go on the flatter side if you want to match his guitar...that really threw me off at first.

That tuning has a Nick Drake feel to it I wonder if he was going for that at all.

Awesome man! 👌🏽🔥 What distortion pedal do you have?

Wonderfully played. Thank you 🎉

Thanks a lot for this video !! It's really helpful

Good job man, ive been trying to learn this song for a little bit now but i broke my high E string lol, ian d'sa is a super underrated guitarist he really deserves more love, keep up the good work

STRUMMING TECHNIQUE FOR THE RIGHT HAND + FULL SONG AND HARMONY COVER czcams.com/video/DWWAuJDZPVc/video.htmlsi=LVFqS-1-ujoO8aW_ How to get the sound right.. Hope this helps as everyone always asks) Okay so use the soft part of your thumb so you get a smooth, soft bottom end on the bass notes. Flick the top three strings with your finger NAILS, so they are brighter and have more attack when you are down stroking, but pluck them with the soft tips of your fingers for a soft strum on the way back down. The combination will have a smooth low end with accented high end and smooth strumming between. Give it a try and let me know how that goes :) When I play his songs I will instinctively change the EQ of what I’m playing by implementing more or less fingernail, down stroking with nail or picking with my fingers (purposefully avoiding the nail) to get a very soft or bright melody at times. Over time this just becomes natural and instinctual. If you find this hard, don’t worry, I was trained in classical guitar for about 10 years before I started playing electric properly, so that carried over to me and I have always been able to do it since I started playing Elliott Smith, but if you aren’t experienced it just takes a bit of time!!! :) Give this general idea a try until you find how it works, maybe even just strumming the same chord or section until it feels good. Let me know how this goes below and share tips to help others. :)

0:54 I’m trying to play this chord but for me it sounds like the G chord is overpowering everything else, it doesn’t sound high pitched like it does in the song and I’m not sure what to do💀

Hey Jason, are you there buddy?

i just lurvvv this and i love brand new

i already knew how to play this song but decided to check out your tutorial anyways and its surprising to me that you play it in a different tuning than I learned to play it in. its cool to see alternate ways to play songs

Epic

i love how this tutorial is really straightforward and quick, a lot of others just make me bored and give up

I wanna make a amp Bluetooth to play backing tracks though the amp and play along. Any suggestions?

love seeing BT randomly in my feed, such an underrated band. btw you fucking nailed it!

Oooooo Billy Talent!

❤

Nice dude! Thanks for sharing

Transistor amp? Isn’t it a vacuum tube?

🫶😭 so helpful thank you ✨️

Very nice bro (also I was the 300th like lets gooo!!!)

Am I the only one who has tuned to the correct tuning and my guitar sounds off tune compared to him? What am I doing wrong??

can you just teach the song and not sing i’m here to learn the song, not you attempting to impress people with your mid singing 😭

4:43 Second Riff Part
