Petrucci is the bob ross of metal
yup. lil happy birds!
Dare dare. You're right.
Great analysis 👍
His next song is gona be titanium white
Paints happy 🎶 🎵
Aside from his EXPERTISE, his talent... This guy seems to be such a gentleman. He speaks with great eloquence and passion. He just seems like a really nice person even outside of music.
As someone who has been playing for over 30 years. This guy represents the best of us as guitarist. What a freakin' treasure
As someone who has been playing for 45 years, I'm inclined to agree with you.
Totes ma goats. Spot on.
As someone, it is true.
petrucci and his band are so overrated its not even funny. what the hell are you people smoking!
@@Mike-pv3hg Yet here you are, Still watching videos of him...
This guy is just amazing, all of these years playing awesome music and he still knows how to "talk" as a teacher....
1. Knows how to talk
2. Like a human being, not a celebrity
3. Teaching, but not in a condescending way
4. Humble as always
5. John is just awesome!
This is because he tends to *think* while doing things. You know, "why i am doing this and that".
That's awesome, how JP describes how he visualizes sounds when he's looking for the tone!
Tom Waits once described Marc Ribot as his go-to guitarist because he can say things like "Marc, play this piece like your hair's on fire and he does it."
Big fan of Marc Ribot
I remember reading about Rob zombie getting frustrated with Jay Yuenger cause he couldn't figure out how to explain the noises he heard in his head
@@Durkhead I always wondered if Zombie played an instrument. I mean if you don't you have to relegate what you get to people who do.
I've seen Ribot live, as he's simply a force of nature... 🤘😎
Mental imagery applied in music really is a thing. There are tons of papers and researches about it. Whether you're imagining how your hands should move when you're playing, or imagining different kinds of images that represent your sound/music, it differs from person to person. What John said about standing on a mountain and having birds come out of his guitar was actually personal to him. And he shared that to everyone. What an awesome human being.
Singers do this constantly, sometimes too much lol
I'm fortunate enough to have seen DT twice on their first tour and their soundcheck on both. To this day John's clean tone was the best live clean tone I've ever heard. He had a huge refrigerator-sized rack and he really knew what sound he was going for even back then; it was epic. Mind you they weren't famous yet and Pull Me Under had just been released on the radio, so seeing them as a relatively unknown new band touring clubs was really mind-blowing.
So warm and down to Earth guy, John Petrucci is amazing!
Wow! The timing couldn't be better. Because I've been struggling with my sound for years. And that finally, after listening to John's advice, I put my energy back in the right place, and I just found it right before my recording. So, thank you very much, Mr. Petrucci. I'm very grateful. Playing with the right sound changes everything. It is both a feeling of freedom and power.
I share his opinions on how everything should sound even though I do experiment a bit. It's one reason I started using DiMarzio pickups. Not his models but they still have that dry thing he described in the video. I would like to see the delay pedal demo though
Petrucci does the perfect demo of why an FX loop is your best friend. Vintage amps have great tone but they're very one dimensional w/ no FX loop. Sure, you can run various non dist effects in front of the preamp along w a dist pedal, but it tends to get muddy. Try a clean boost pedal in your FX loop. It will blow your mind. It will boost your signal volume up with minimal effect on your tone so its great for solos that cut through the mix. Click off your dist pedal and click on your clean boost in the loop and it FATTENS up your clean tone big time. Then tweak your tone between your amp gain and master and your guitar volume for each configuration w pedals on and pedals off until you reach a happy medium on the amp settings. These are really cool work arounds that don't cost a lot of $$$. You just need a good amp with an FX loop and a couple of really well made pedals.
Devin Townsend laughing about keeping the crunch tone dry.
Very thoughtful approach, he knows exactly what he wants to achieve with his tone. His tone is not what I go for but saying that, I’m a happy user of Majesty guitar. Great, versatile instrument- not just for those who want to sound like John.
Thanx for sharing that video!
Them Majesties are a thing of beauty but are pricey...
John Petrucci really is an awesome guitarist AND teacher!
This is great! Love John and his music. Lot's of insights and cool tones. Thanks for this!
This just popped up on my recommended and I clicked it. I didn't realize it was Ola's channel lol. I think it's cool when a professional guitarist shares stuff like this. There's no finish line, everyone's still pushing forward with their skills.
Awesome Ola! More from JP pleaseeee! 🔥
man i need more... this is great!
the beach analogy was difficult to understand at first, but when John started demonstrating his sounds it finally made sense.
Life-changing words from my man JP 👏👏
Thank you for sharing what would otherwise be inaccessible!
I think with the current proliferation of drive pedals and small combo users, a lot of us who are not using the head to get the overdrive tone are using the delays in front of the amp. Cool session. What a masterful player and cool guy John is!
Some great tips here indeed. One thing that took me time to learn was that less is more on the distortion side. We tend to hear thick distortion and try to dial that in only to have it be way too much. Dialing it back you get that sweet spot. I’ve heard many isolated tracks of EVH and was astounded at just how clean his brown sound was. It def had hair on it but it was not as dirty as it came out with the whole band pumping along with him. Loved the effects commentary JP shared here. Brilliant.
Too much gain, bass and not enough mids -- the bedroom guitarist's curse.
@@KRayxKodessA lol. Well said.
Man, tysm for sharing OLA
@ola englund thanks for uploading this. 🙏
That's inspiring to me. Gives me something more to shoot for. Thanks for posting.
I was just checking out a line6 HD500x JP *clean* patch I hadn't used in a while. I was like "Dang that's good John". I love volume roll off but that one went back into the arsenal instantly and works well with the guitar volume.
Awesome !!! thanks for sharing !!!
This is great content for 'The Great Unwashed' who could never afford to attend, thanks John & Ola 🤘
Thank you for sharing this ❤❤❤❤
This is so awesome really enjoyed watching this Thank you!!
loved that guitar so much.. very unique..
John is an amazing teacher.
Many Thanks Ola!
This was great love to see John is such a guitar nerd ( in a good way)
Killer video Ola.
He is a true enthusiast ! Hi John love from France
Thx Ola!! Also funny trying to describe a dry crunch tone in a super reverby room but he gets his point across.
Very excellent demonstration
Melhor guitarrista desse planeta!!! ✍️🌵
Very informative! Thanks friend
Damn, 5 classes of 1.5 hours each? That's insane! I would have guessed 2 classes. Amazing event!
Excellent approach!!
I love his use of visualisation... Definitely going to try to use that more 😎👍
Years ago I already picked up another JP tip, namely: to tighten up your sound, just dial back the gain a bit!
And since then I've always kept my high gain rhythm sound 'clean' and to the point anyway - no reverbs anywhere in my signal: I leave thát to the FOH.
But I might use a noisegate in the FX loop on my amp, just enough to clean things up a bit when playing live. Never in the studio though, just like compression: that's all done after during production.
Awesome info from a master.
3:48 Damn, he said it!
I would love to attend this.
mind blown with putting chorus in front of VS in the effects loop of the amp. Honestly in 20 years of piddling around with guitar I've never tried it......
THANK YOU
4:30 ... his crunch-sound is so fecking kick ass ... omfg
Thanks for uploading this, Ola! 🤘 Personally, I’d love to see more Fredrik Akesson and Guthrie Govan footage, please. 🙏❤
Waiting for that guy to overdub this video for Psycho Exercises 5
good approach for metal guitars, for hard rock tho a reverb is a must when playing rhythm...you're not using too much gain so you need to make that sound wider.
Petrucci tá um senhor bonitão nesse vídeo..estilo do caramba.. e tocando muito.. como sempre
Godammit. Zakk Wylde is one of my favorite players and I love his use of chorus. Yet it NEVER occurred to me he put it before the distortion... **sigh** I feel like a dumbass who should have thought of doing that a long time ago
If I got this valuable information from this short video of one of Petrucci's classes, imagine the library of information available for those attending.
I have always liked the modulation fx before distortion, and disliked it after distortion..too synthy or ''artificial'' for my taste
@@abheceshabemuskk3531after is definitely more polished and hair metal, which i also like in certain applications. just two very different sounds.
Move it all over a chain, tweak it until something sounds good-sometimes it works
My hero!!!
Awesome video. Where was this when I started! Zakk Wylde uses the Univibe I believe which is close to the Chorus after distortion for sure.
Thank you
I always called my add9 chords the zombie movie chords with bleak landscapes in my mind. Glad to know that’s a technique of the pro!
The Trooch is a wizard. Dude has killer tone. THICC and juicy. Not over-cooked. Like a good steak.
@stopthehomo8811
damn this is so cool
John Petrucci is such a sweet guy!
Petrucci speaks I listen 😍
MasterChief of Guitar
Reliving camp *happy cry*
Down to earth.
I use a bit of gate or compression just to take the squeal off sometimes. I try not to use them but it depends on how nutso distortion u want. Dry is always baseline then its the direction you want to go...
Regarding chorus. The formulation I always had given to me was, you choose between chorused distortion, or distorted chorus. And the implication was distorted chorus bad. But, I don’t know, man; I think Petrucci used a distorted chorus on the solo in, the Gershwin piece on LTE three, and it sounded amazing. Both have validity.
thats so cool, wish i could of gone
Had a VIP ticket in Vermont, Petrucci and Mangini were very nice. Others not so much
It's cool to see this sample of teaching by a mega virtuoso such as JP. I've hesitated going to one of these camps thinking that my guitar skills are nowhere near even a fraction of his skill, and attending would not only be too humiliating, but also pointless. This video makes me wonder if my skill level might not be a problem and I might even benefit from attending. Any thoughts from anyone about this would be very helpful.Thanks!
Go
One of the dudes asked what an effects loop even is, so I think it's safe to say anyone could benefit from attending.
@@orshy1 wow, but also very cool that these stellar musicians can do their thing, yet make guitar players of all skill levels feel welcomed. Thanks for your insight!
2:22 - time at which Ola nods off during the John Petrucci Master Class, lol. 😴 💤 😂
Ola was really jet lagged. He def didn’t think the class was boring cause Ola is all about tone. Don’t get it twisted! ✈️
😉
I like how he used images and words to describe guitar tones.
It was great to follow his train of thought
guys if you have more footage of the classes please post for those of us who could not attend.
Awesome 👌 seems that the effects loop plays a very important role
The jam with Zakk kicked so much butt
John, that's not a "gank", we call it "A FCKN CHUG!"
hey ola, is there an all star jam clip?
7:45 George Lynch classic chord sequence
I always used the visual part for creating in general
i didn't even know this was ola, i just clicked on the video. i was like "camra man drunk!!", im drunk rn lol
man, that dude must be such a nice person
あ！尊敬して止まない、ペトルーシ様だ！🙀🥰🥰カッコよすぎるな～🥰🥰🥰🎸🎸
humble guy
Yes , yes , and yes again to the reverb comment.
Waiting for part -2 ❤🎉😊😊
@Ola England Bro Ola, how can i watch the full video?
TOOOOOAAAAAN
He's the Moses of music now. With so much expensive shit who wouldn't sound good.😜
How much to attend this whole clinic?
The way he described his lead sound.. the birds 😭
John Petrucci: “Here I am going to show you where to find the best tone.”
*unzips pants*
Ola, did you even check what kind of lead eq John uses?
Hi Ola. Do you think John was using an Axe-FX in this video?
Is the second part that he mentions on CZcams?
Interesting… All that gain in the crunch channel and without a noise gate? No noise through his amp at all? Can anyone confirm that?
@2:22 the guy holding the phone falls asleep out of sheer boredom. 😂
9:19 There's a little Jordan Rudess style "Becawss"
Thanks john you are amazing guitarist in the world❤❤❤
Watching this on loop while practicing = happy time.
Ola should have changed his rhythm tone to the metalzone going through the effects loop of the randell satan
Now THAT would be a Metal tone!
But, will it chug??🤘🧐🤣
