Blues Guitar Tutorial - how to use double stops in 3rds, 4ths and 6ths. Backing Track, Diagrams and Tab for main solo are available on my Patreon page: / 91820444
I cannot believe the quality of this channels lessons. I also can’t believe content and lessons like this are freely available at no cost. It’s amazing! Love the new fretboard graphics too. Thanks Jules!
I have enjoyed quite a number of your tutorials, but I have to say this one was the best thus far. Excellent demonstration and explanation of the technique.
Jules, your teaching style is right in line with my learning style. You break things down and explain them in clean, concise way accompanied by good video examples. Thanks ✌️
Thank you Jules. I've been trying to learn Double Stops and how to use them. This lesson is just what I needed to finally un derstand and integrate double stops into my playing. I'm stoked.
I’ve been experimenting with double stops in a very simple and unorganized manner. This is going to change the way I play. It’s probably going to change my entire sound, such as it is…but I’m here for it. Thank you!
You know... that kind of thing. ;) Really excellent stuff. From simple bits to sounding like an actual piece of music in just ten minutes of instruction!!!
I love the double stop sounds, another great video Jules!! I have the same guitar as you, that Fender Player Strat is absolutely amazing for the price, It´s all I need on a guitar
Super good 👍🏻 inspiration !! … I finally learned to navigate the fretboard a bit Ala the caged thing …. I hear stuff that sounds like robert cray and so much more … Odis Redding….. and all the blues great s
Thanks for another great lesson. I’m an intermediate player who needs more help with lead playing. Could you perhaps do a lesson on creating useful repeating licks for solos?
One of the best tutorials I’ve seen. I have a small suggestion that may or not be useful, that is to put markers on the times where each section begins. Thank you and thank you again. :)
Wait a minute here....Isn't a C# to an E a MINOR 3rd apart? The C# is the 3rd of A. Made me shake my head a bit...it's blues but that threw me for a short loop....sounds great though and going to the D and F# are a major 3rd apart. Or am I out of my mind? hehe
Yes, indeed it's a minor third (C#+E) to a major third (D+F#). Whenever you harmonise up a scale in thirds or 6ths, you'll get a mixture of major and minor thirds, but they're all thirds.
Are the tabs also upside down and backwards on your Patreon? Would love to support but find the way these display frustrating and out of sync with everything else I’ve used in the passed. Looking down at the fretboard is nothing like this.
@@jackfromthe60sWe don't need it to match his finger placement. We can already see that on the actual guitar. I agree that this way of presenting the fretboard is confusing af that's why nobody else does it like that.
@@mattgee4867 It doesn't confuse me. You've got the nut, the different string thicknesses and the dots to orientate it. It's like how in some countries they write AMBULANCE backwards on the front of an ambulance so it looks correct in your rear vision mirror. Makes no difference to me. My brain sees AMBULANCE in either case.
@@jackfromthe60sno, this is more like a word being written normally and when you see it in your mirror it's backwards, but you don't know the word so it takes some time to put it right in your head. If you like seeing the fretboard this way it's already there on the actual guitar.
I'm confused at the meaning of suspended chords in these examples. I thought suspended chords are sus2 & sus4 chords but that's not the case in these examples. Take the thirds suspended chord. The notes D & F# are used and it's mentioned "hints at the IV chord of D". Surely this is just the root & third from the D major chord then? What makes this suspended?
In context of an A chord, playing the D creates the sus4 sound. The F# is a harmonisation of the D a third above, which creates an even more pronounced suspension.
@@Pra4sannaWhat does he mean by suspended chords? I thought he means sus2 & sus4 chord, but that doesn't make sense with the notes he uses. In the thirds example he uses D & F# and says this gives a suspended sound. Aren't these two notes simply the root & 3rd of a D major chord? What makes this suspended?
Blues is just bastardised country music which is what gospel music comes from - country music. This was one iteration into another. So with each successive version it changed from one part of the country to the other. Which is why we now have DELTA blues which is glorified country and and jazz. Electric blues, or city blues, or Chicago blues as we now know it is what is callled rhythm and blues that we now call R and B. It's an iteration of Rock and Roll with country which was Stevie Ray Vaughn played. That's why they use a lot of the same phrasing and note structure that country originally used.
Hmm interesting theory, but blues originated before country even though they both had similar influences... you can see strong blues influences in many genres... great lessons by the way!
@@6xXmikeXx9 Actually bluegrass music pre-dates both country and western and gospel music by more than 80 years! So both of these are before blues was ever even thought of. I know that many people think that the blues came out first but actually it was written around the time of the great depression of the 1930's south. What you are probably thinking is modern country or the stuff written in the 70s' and eighties throughout the 90s' but none of that sounds anything like the country music of 100 years ago. But after delving into it the history of U.S. American music is very interesting.

This guy helped me so much from breaking away from constantly playing the same songs and learning to improvise
I have enjoyed quite a number of your tutorials, but I have to say this one was the best thus far. Excellent demonstration and explanation of the technique.
I love your colored notes. Blue, black, and red plus explanation. Blue notes, 3rds in the chord, Suspended fourths. Excellent!
WAY better than the other double-stop lessons I looked at. Most people play them far too fast with no explanations. This was fantastic.
Jules, your teaching style is right in line with my learning style. You break things down and explain them in clean, concise way accompanied by good video examples.
Thanks ✌️
The most informative guitar video I have seen on CZcams Thank you.
Legit should be in the CZcams Hall Of Fame for that tone video … thank-you!
Merci. I've heard of these techniques, but didn't know how to perform them. You are providing a kind gesture sharing your knowledge.
This way of presenting the tablature actually makes it so much easier to play than traditional tabs.
Fantastic presentation.
sometimes we forget this stuff and then a good refresher come along.nice
Thanks Jules. Very simple and well communicated lesson on the Blues! It definitely gave me a different colour to my playing.
Thank you Jules. I've been trying to learn Double Stops and how to use them. This lesson is just what I needed to finally un derstand and integrate double stops into my playing. I'm stoked.
You are a very good player and teacher. Thanks for these ideas
Only few youtube teacher is doing this thanks

Thanks Jules a really useful lesson at a challenging but not impossible level. Expertly taught as always.

Good video again. Any chance of a pinched harmonics lesson ? That's something i'm struggling with a bit.
This is amazing
Great thanks
Way cool
Brilliant!
just great
amazing!
I want to learn
Are the tabs also upside down and backwards on your Patreon? Would love to support but find the way these display frustrating and out of sync with everything else I’ve used in the passed. Looking down at the fretboard is nothing like this.
The way he presents them in the video matches his finger placement. It would be more confusing to present a "traditional" fretboard diagram.
@@jackfromthe60sWe don't need it to match his finger placement. We can already see that on the actual guitar. I agree that this way of presenting the fretboard is confusing af that's why nobody else does it like that.

Isn’t a D to F# a major 3rd?
I wish I could understand the theory behind this.
F# toB is a 4th?
He’s talking abt F# to B in the context of A Maj scale.
That is :- A B C# D E F# G#
If you count from F# to B, you’ll see that B is the 4th of F#
