    I like them all, but Solo #2 instantly perked up my ears. It has a beautiful raw emotion to it. Plus, the fact that you felt like you “got lucky with that one” gives it that organic, seat-of-the-pants energy that all great solos seem to have. Inspiring as always Tim!

    Truly inspiring - whenever I’m out of ideas, I know it’s time to go watch Tim’s channel for 10 minutes and just be reminded of the sheer joy of playing.
    David Lynch talks about gaining access to the place where ideas come from...I think Tim lives there :o).

  • @thormusique
    @thormusique Před 5 lety

    Beautiful, Tim, thanks! I was so happy to see that you saved that climbing riff. I was yelling, "No!" at my computer when you first chose to replace it. It often happens that I choose to "fix" a guitar part, only to find that the typically tame and safe replacement I opted for instead was a dull mistake. Thank goodness that we can now usually go back and save those takes nowadays!

    What is your brilliance, Mr. Pierce, is your incredible wealth of creativity and fluidity. Wow. When most struggle to come up with just one good line within a solo, each of your 5 solos have amazing qualities within each little segment. Incredible.

  • @guitardudeguy3139
    @guitardudeguy3139 Před 5 lety +1

    It's so much fun to keep the flow going and achieve lines you never thought about..and may never be able to capture again. Once ya get the groove it's hard to stop, and you keep saying to yourself...I can do better! That's when the producer says...wait! We're keeping that! I wish I had the set up you have..you make it look so easy.

  • @MattyK-USA
    @MattyK-USA Před 5 lety

    There is so much that is great going on here that I really don't feel qualified to comment. One thing I will say, Tim - you are absolutely the king when it comes to incorporating double stops into your soloing. No one I've ever heard does it better.

  • @dapperdanman1956

    Sounds great, I'm impressed as usual, when I watch your stuff :-). After 30 years of playing the guitar i composed recently for the first time a solo. And I was amazed, because it sounds so different to all the other stuff I did - and do. So I couldn't agree with Rick Beato when I saw his video. Nice to see now: there are different ways to work on a solo. So I will compose again. It brings my guitarplaying to a new level.

    Really useful video Tim.. I watched the RB video a few days ago about quit working out your solos.. and I get where he's coming from for sure.. but I still like to have an outline in mind for the key phrases and general direction of the solo.. the thing I like about this video is your command of the hardware and software along with your awesome playing.. you're such a pro and thanks for giving your time to us.. very enjoyable!

  • @mikeriesco6174
    @mikeriesco6174 Před 5 lety +21

    Tim, Tim, Tim...you COULD have at least hit a couple of sour notes on purpose, just to prove you're human. All 5 of the initial ones were amazing. And even the "mistake" you pointed out didn't sound like one. Especially after you repeated it. :-) I actually think that in the second half, where you did all the re-do's and cuts, it was less relaxed and more "forced" than the 1st 5 uninterrupted takes, which were all beautiful, each in their own way. Goes to show that the hands know what to do, if we just let them.

    Tim, this would make a great Masterclass lesson, with you explaining your thinking behind each of the 5 solos, with them tabbed out, and the backing track, just great! I don't know if you already have this planned?

  • @THEPHYSICALSPIRIT
    @THEPHYSICALSPIRIT Před 5 lety

    Hope this ends up on the Masterclass. Realize that's a ton of work though. Tim, maybe someday a video series on how to disassociate yourself from practice/lick mode to purely soloing from feel and playing music. Often, when I try to throw in a lick I'm working on it disrupts the flow of a solo and sticks out like a sore thumb. Thanks.

Such a great sounding and stunning instrument that is brought to life by your awesome ability to play...

      My wife bought me a PRS private stock DGT 594 for my 60th. I would never have contemplated paying that much for a guitar, but after playing it, I now understand (and so I forgive her....). What a fabulous instrument. Yours sounds even better than mine, but that probably has something to do with the player :) @@timpierceguitar

  • @markhill5786
    @markhill5786 Před 5 lety

    Great concept for composition! I remember reading an interview with Steve Lukather talking about how they put together Eddie Van Halens solo on Beat It. EVH played through it 2 or 3 times then Lukather sat up all night chopping up sections from each take to make it one cohesive solo. Similar idea to this video.

  • @guitargod6997
    @guitargod6997 Před 5 lety +1

    Great playing as always! Questions in short hand - Guitar make and model? Your preferred action - low, medium? String gauge and type/make? Observation - some comments refer to creating a standard notation version of a solo like these. In my experience with Sibelius and despite my fluency with writing and reading notation, doesn't that defeat the purpose here? Apart from the fact that while it is possible with Transcribe type software, such an undertaking does not mean that a player can develop by copying your spontaneous solos. One has to learn to improvise oneself in your own voice.

    Hi Tim,
    Watching you play, you make it look so easy.
    It is a pleasure to watch and listen to your videos.
    But how many long hours of practice did it take you to achieve your exceptional standard of guitar play?
    I have been trying for years, and I just cannot achieve your tone and fluidity of play.
