    Learn how to play Tush the way Billy Gibbons plays it live!
    Tush is such a classic ZZ Top song, and it's both fun and a bit tricky to play. If you keep your guitar strung low, it's hard to do that thumb over the neck thing.
    The song is basically a typical blues, but it's more of a blues-rock style. The bass is thumping, and the guitar keeps chugging long. Tush is crowd pleaser for sure!
    I used two guitar tones from the Axe-Fx, hard panned left/right. The left guitar is a JCM 800 style preset, and the right is a Silver Jubilee style.
    Hope you can dig it!

    I remember being little and hearing my dads band practice this over&over&over...drove me nuts! Lol!
    Then when I got into guitar ,14,in the early 90's ....I had to learn it!
    I remember being at a bar,jammin with the band ,they let me play it!..time came for the slide guitar part ,I grabbed the nearest beer bottle I could find,which wasn't hard,lol! And away I went,GOOD TIMES! Thanks for the memories! RAWK!

    Another point of interest, is that Billy plays a .007 gauge of strings. (Rev. Willy's Mexican Lottery Brand) .007-.038 !!

    @chrisjamessfsd Před 3 lety +2

    Great video! Billy Gibbons has a way of presenting the notes is a very unique way. Almost like they sound harder than they are...kind of a 'less is more' thing. Either way, nicely done & thanks for sharing!

    GREAT TUTORIAL!!! This is serious work!! and I meen it: you did your homework... This is the way Billy Gibbons must have played that tune. I dont mind doing of a song but I always try to find a way to play the tune the way the creator voiced it originaly. If you look closely how Gibbons hold the instrument and its close relation to Jimmy Hendrix handling ... this is a great version of it!!

    Very nice. Kinda funny, I learned that song by ear from a record player back when I was a kid in the late 70s. Took me forever and I must have lifted that need a thousand times until I was sure I had that song perfect. I’ve been playing it off and on ever since then and less as the years went by. However, never went back as an adult to revisit using our modern tools. Looks like I
