5 Levels of "Hey Joe" by Jimi Hendrix
Vložit
- čas přidán 2. 06. 2024
- The best way to describe the way Jimi Hendrix played is “complete freedom” on the fretboard. He was the king of mixing rhythm and lead guitar together at the same time. Even if you stripped the other instruments away from his performances, there was an entire ensemble of guitar happening at once. A great way to start learning to play like this yourself is to break one of his songs down into levels. In this lesson, we’ll be using the song “Hey Joe” to work our way through the skills you need to play guitar like Jimi Hendrix!

About Ayla Tesler-Mabe:
Ayla has been making waves in the world of guitar playing as a professional guitarist, vocalist, multi-instrumentalist and composer, since the early age of 14. After only been playing for two years, her first CZcams video (a rendition of John Mayall’s “Hideaway”) put her on the map and kickstarted her music career. She has since been featured in Rolling Stone magazine, become a member of the Ernie Ball and Fender family of artists, and earned various Berklee College of Music scholarships. Musically, Ayla finds great pleasure in exploring the numerous avenues available to her through various styles of music, as seen through her work with Calpurnia and Ludic.

You were blessed with long fingers, young lady.
Witch Gear do you amp and Pedal to get that sound ?
thanks
I’ve been playing for 40 years and, if I don’t say so myself, I’m a pretty good guitar player. I started watching these videos to see what advice she is giving to beginners. But now I’m watching because I’m learning new things. Nice job!
I was gonna say the same thing too brother.
Great comment
I had a band in the 70th too and played the lead guitar. We played this also picking up the music from the tapes. I see now that I played very close what I see here
me too, I was always leaving out some licks, especially Hendrix..
Thank-you little sister!!!!! You're amazing. Like the other guys, I've been playing since I saw the Beatles on Ed Sullivan and you taught me a few things. Congratulations on your great musical taste and incredible skills, go get em my dear 💖
5 levels should be a series. Very helpful with my progression. Thanks!
especially when it's about jimi hendrix, man used to play guitar in 4d
Thank you for including the Delta Blues influence on Jimi. Once you hear and understand the Delta Blues, you suddenly realize how much influence it had on rock. Thanks for this great video.
This is honestly one of the best tutorials I have ever seen. Clearly explained, adding complexity as you go along. Brilliantly played. Subscribed.
I totally agree with you! Thank you for this lesson!
I just want to say that as a beginner trying to move into the intermediate level, I really appreciate this approach to learning a song. Thanks!
Times Two, Richard!!!
I'm in total agreement about her playing and teaching skills! And I'm really grateful for her taking the time to make this tutorial video. It's the best one I've seen!
I am a little "ungrateful" however for needing to relearn a song that I sorta thought I had down in the late 60s, hee hee. Her way does sound MUCH more true to the song than the junk I've been playing for 50+ years.........
Anyone know if the standard "narrow width" (1.625" or so....) Fender neck makes it easier to do that F-shaped major chord with the thumb covering the bass E string? I've been building my own guitars, and usually make wider necks for my large sized hands. I still struggle to play that style of chord cleanly. I'm certain 66 yr. old arthritic digits don't help much there.......
Never put your instrument down, Ryan. The music is in you and it must come out. "God Gave Rock and Roll To You". 🇺🇸 😎👍☕
I once had a book Jimi wrote on playing lead (my ex stole it with almost all of the song books I ever had, I got the book when Jimi was still alive, grrr...) and one of the things he emphasized in his book was the blues scale with extra "coloring notes" he called them which basically switched between major and minor pentatonics and became the basis of almost all the lead solos I played since then. I love your style of teaching, keep it up!
My teenage self: SKIP TO LEVEL 5
My adult self: SKIP TO LEVEL 5
I think I learned that from Jimi... pedal to the floor. In all seriousness, amazing lesson on a classic song, Ayla!
Tyler! Thank you so much! You are amazing and I’m such a huge fan of yours. -Ayla :)
Ayo its the guy who does my guitar course
Hey Tyler... fancy seeing you here 🤝
@@MusoraMedia aa
Great to see you sharing the love Tyler! 🤘
there is already 3526568456546843654684689 videos but the world really needed a 17 year old girl to teach us how to play hey joe again, thank you
This is the best format for guitar lessons, period. Start simple, learn the changes, build from that. Great stuff.
Hi Adam, agree to you and by the way an excellent exercise for using the Circle of Fifths in Rock and Blues. C,G,D,A and E are the first Chords playing the Circle upwards.
Have a fine day and shine on.
Greets Alex ☺☺🎸🎸
I’ve never seen this song broken down like this. Fantastic job! Please do more lessons like this.
I am consistently impressed by your approach to lessons. You give us the "how" of things, but you also give us the "why", and you do it in a clear and succinct fashion. You don't just tell us how to play the different chord voicings, you explain why they augment our performance. Thank you!
The fact I keep coming back to this tutorial says everything. The tricks plus the way you breakdown the song is amazing. Your tone is superb!
Ayla I cannot express how greatly you explained the Hendrix style. Plus your incredible tone too it is what I aspire for!
Thank you endlessly for this masterpiece of a video!!
This video just jumped up my game almost immediately. It showed me some little creative tricks that really help me add a little soul to my playing. Thank you!!!!
I saw Jimi Hendrix the day Hey Joe went to #1 in the UK. The ballroom was nearly empty because very few people knew who he was at that point. I have long since given up on guitars with six strings but I really enjoyed this video Thanks.
The best Hey Joe lesson I've ever seen. You really get to the heart of Jimmy's genius which was that lead/rhythm meld on a foundation of groove. When you lock in on that groove you can throw in just about anything and it will work...total freedom on the instrument which, to me, was Jimmy's legacy.
Ayla, I love how you teach! You take an intimidating song from a master and show brick by brick how to build it for yourself. Incredible!
That guitar sounds so inviting.
Thanks Ayla Jimi was the best!! Can never stop learning from him. He was transcendent like u said. The GOAT!!!
I' was a teenager when Hendrix became famous, so I've listened to Hendrix for a long time. This is far and away the best tutorial on Hey Joe that I have ever viewed, and I have looked at lots and lots of them. One of the very best, most authentic covers of the song too, with drive and intensity that invokes the spirit and sound of the original. Ayla is not only a superb guitarist with fantastic touch and feeling for the instrument, but having viewed other of her videos, I know she is also a wonderfully gifted and generous teacher. Ayla is so clear and straightforward in her approach that we can't help but learn from her. This, I know, has been to state the obvious, so it is perhaps just a way to say ""Thank you, Ayla!"
REALLY HAVE A GOOD LISTEN TO..ROY BUCHANAN'S VERSION!..AN JUST FOR THE RECORD HENDRIX DIDN'T WRITE THIS NOR did he ever play it that well.!!!
@@mickchilly1112
she did say Roy wrote the song.
@@vladimirciboci1485 Billy Roberts wrote that song ROY didn't.
@@mickchilly1112 Yes off course, thank you my mistake.
It is obvious that Ayla is a true Hendrix fan, she really nails his tricks and plays them from the heart. Jimi would be proud she's passing over his skills to us with passion.
Hi Ayla, I just want to say how much I enjoy your video's. I've been a guitar player on and off 40 years, a Hendrix fan forever and never thought I'd be able to play like him. You've opened the way for me through these lessons.
The intro to this lesson shows just how awesome you are! IMO this is the most eye opening lesson on this song I've seen. I've been working on this song off and on for some time. This has really connected some things for me. Thank you!
Okay so I’ve been diving into Hendrix for the last year and I have to say you are literally the best instructor of this that I’ve seen! So patient, articulate and just an overall great attitude! Thank you so much!
Love this format with different levels. Great for getting a feeling of accomplishment (mastering a level, even though it may be just the first) and then having something to work on. Please do more of this with different songs.
As an advanced beginner who's literally spent decades trying to cross that Intermediate threshold, this is one of the best guitar tutorials I've ever seen (and I've seen many!). That Hendrix blend of rhythm and lead is what drives so many of us to attempt to deconstruct his style, but one thing that often gets ignored is the groove. I love the clear and concise breakdown of how to attack the strumming pattern, and how to incorporate the licks while always maintaining that rhythm. Hey Joe is one of the first songs I ever learned almost 40 years ago, yet I feel like I'm learning it for the first time. A brilliant lesson by a truly gifted teacher. Thank you for this, Ayla!
Excellent review of "levels" of this song. Really nice way to build skills and confidence on this classic. Well done. Nice gritty fuzz tone.
Subbed! I’ve been revisiting this song as a tool for learning for decades now. Thank you for the stellar content.
Having played guitar since 1965 I have never found anyone who can teach properly and today I have found you...I am fascinated and glued to your videos...well done, you have made an old man very happy...❤️🙏👍🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
A superb "jump in whatever level you are" lesson. Less about stifling technical accuracy, more about groove, feel, and sneaky bits. Thankyou for making this content.
My granddaughter and I loved playing this song when she was learning how to play bass. Was a good easy song for both of us.
This is so cool! I agree "5 Levels" should be a series! It's so much easier to learn this way than everything at once, which is many times so frustrating that you (or I) give up!
been playing this for 40 plus years and i'm learning more from you, great job. never saw jimi play anything the same way twice.
Love how you teach simple progressions, building on each section. I appreciate your easy going and friendly interaction with the audience. Will keep watching and learning from your videos.
This is brilliant, really useful and really well presented. Thanks
What a great method for teaching guitar! Hope to see more of this for other songs as well. Great job Ayla! Thanks!
I'm pretty sure Jimi would be proud of such a gifted young musician bringing his music to guitar players around the world. It is really fun to learn this way. Props on playing so seemingly effortless and thank you for the video.
I'm a 58 year old player who loves Hendrix. Absolutely brilliant lesson. Thanks!
I am a seasoned guitarist and I enjoy Ayla's version and lesson, mainly because I used to play this song a LONG time ago, so naturally, I forgot it. So, I think I will learn it again. She does a great job teaching beginner and intermediate players. She explains everything in detail and has a great attitude. Great job on this song Ayla. BTW, great lesson on SOMETHING as well. I have been playing it for years and you did a great job teaching that solo break.
Wow, that is a great insight into Hendrix and a great lesson Ayla!
Love how you broke it up into levels. You have inspired me to revisit the song and level up 👍
Great explanation about jimi's playstyle, I've been more than 20 years playing this song, and still enjoy the freedom of playing it, but i learn a lot more with this video. Thank You!!
It doesn't matter how long I've been playing, I LOVE learning new music. I wasn't big on trying to ever play any Jimi stuff until recently.
THIS lesson is so awesome and points out so many essential things that Jimi did.
You do such an amazing job pointing out those signature stylistic things that made Jimi so unique!
your generous and thoughtful instruction is really heart warming. Thank you!
It's all about keeping that groove going ... you nailed it!
Thanks A. You taught this song better than anyone else could have for Hendrix 👍🏽
absolutely the best guitar teacher... the presentation showing the chord positions is a masterful touch... yes the best! and TAB on screen as well!!! unreal
Young Lady, you are an AMAZING guitarist! And an excellent instructor! Well done! Thank you!
I've had more fun with this than I've had in months, thank you so much for this great break down and lesson.
Great tutorial! I really appreciate the friendly and humble approach of the instructor and the reminder of how much fun you can have learning to play this classic tune 🙏🏼
Thank you Ayla for a superb lesson. You are absolutely a gift as a teacher, and you are a talented and stellar performer.
r.i.p. jimi, thx fer keepin him alive!.. 🤘
Thanks so much for keeping Jimi's music alive in 2022!! Terrific well explained lesson too!
You rock!
I think the “groove” idea is brilliant as it just pushes you through the song
Fantastic! Love the way you teach, your energy, humor and of course your playing. Great song and great way to cover the various levels and embellishments.
Yea she’s definitely one of the best on YT 💯
Alright alright, I'll actually learn something today instead of just noodle aimlessly
lol, I also went from 4 mos of strictly learning shit to just noodling again. Must get back on track!
Whoever invented noodlng got everyone in a rut.
I’m not the only one noodling… good to know lol
I just try to make my noodles different each day lol!
Noodling aimlessly? Have you learned all the keys yet? What about all your arpeggios and your 2 5 1s? Try to noodle aimlessly with a point in mind; you will find it more productive and enjoyable.
You're so great at this... your talent and your talent at teaching.
Learned the Hey Joe song on guitar with a garage band the very first year it came out in 1967 on the Are You Experienced Vinyl Record Album. We played it in a different style back in those days. Days that were a lot more fun than these days by far. Good to see some people trying to keep it alive.
Such an impor😅tant thing covered in this one...being a beginner/intermediate player, I spend sooo much time on the fretting hand and trying to speed through scales, or even chords changes. Strumming is just as important, or maybe even more important, then just the fretting hand. Solid lesson! Thank ya 👍
Thank you for this.. I’ve been stuck between levels 2-3 of this song forever because I didn’t know where to start on the lead parts
Just let your ears start moving your fingers and then remember the shapes. 🙂
Wow, that's very helpful teaching, thank you so much!
Also, what a tone! ❤️
Great video...very informative. When you see how it's done on video as opposed to just listening to the studio recording, it all makes sense. Thanks
Love your channel. It’s great to see someone playing real music and your analysis is so spot on. So tired of seeing channels covering scales and modes. Thanks!
I love your style. Happy and playful. Taught me a couple of things to try.
Great to see Hendrix getting some love; a truly underappreciated guitarist
sarcasm right on
@PHDDP1978 I think if they weren't being sarcastic they might have been referring to the fact that basically everyone acknowledges that Jimi was one of the greats and a pioneer but a lot of people don't really dive into his greatness as much as they should. Kinda like how Beethoven and Mozart were some of the greatest composers of all time and hardly anyone could argue that, but everyone just kinda accepts it as fact even if they've never actively listened to their compositions.
@@mastod0n1 underappreciated comment
My journey began when I was 12 or 13 years old… I’ll never forget it. I went on rode trip to Florida from the East Coast with my family to visit my Uncle Eddie who had no arms. I was fascinated by him because he drove a car, was a professor as well as an artist. He used his toes to write with a magic marker and many more things that sound to hard to believe so I’ll stop there. Anyway, when we arrived he took me way upstairs to the attic and was blaring Hendrix. He sat me down with his friends, they were all what you call Flower Children. They were passing around a bong a telling stories about Woodstock. Uncle Eddie had me try one puff, one only and watched me very carefully. Bless his heart. From that moment to now no one ever made my heart sing like Jimi… As a matter of fact, I eventually left my High School sweetheart because she didn’t his music. Some things never change.
So here I am 40 years later trying to learn guitar with major medical issues, smoking medical marijuana and very responsibly for chronic pain, which I surely recommend to anyone in place of opioids. I thought I might say that to benefit others since I’m writing in this public fashion, which is extremely rare but I had no choice. Because of you and your teaching techniques and the absolute fun Guitareo jam sessions I enjoy watching so much. I was motivated to get a stick guitar.
I was completely bedridden, left for dead. Oh, by the way. Happy belated Halloween to you all there and Ludic…lol
Okay, so after you read this go ahead and delete it if it’s offensive in anyway…lol
I’m normally a very private person I just had to let you know… Peace to you all
I began learning “Hey Joe” early on in my weekly (face to face) guitar lesson. I’ve come back to this video a few times and always take away something new.
many thanks. its a great teaching video for beginners ... blimey you are gifted . well done you .
I haven’t had a lesson that good since i don’t know when?!!! Good Guitar playing is built on levels and one’s interest is maintained by the freedom to maneuver with both hands just as you described. Great enthusiastic job!
Agreed, this is a fantastic lesson and I've surprised myself how fast I've picked it up. A great confidence booster, even my kids think it sounds good and they're my harshest critics😂😂
The sound you get is just amazing.
what a loveley calming voice
Thanks for this !
This lesson inspired me to pick up my guitar and learn this song! You are a very inspiring and empowering teacher, thank you!
It's really great to know you have such reverence and admiration for Jimi. thank you for sharing and inspiring.
Thanks. That’s huge getting that out to us. Jimi would have loved your doing that absolutely I’m sure of it!
You have a warm, sweet, and sincere presentation style that makes it an absolute joy to watch your vids, and the information you share is top notch! Cheers Ayla, and best wishes for continued success on your journey. BTW, Hendrix is my all-time favorite, I saw him play live 3 times - RI Auditorium, Brown University, '68 & '69.
Excellent lesson! Very nicely laid out. That Strat and whatever amp and pedals you’re using really have the Hendrix sound. I’m so happy that a young player such as yourself has such passion for Hendrix. Even an old dog like me can pick up a tip or two. I’m a testament to the fact that a guitarist can study Jimi’s playing, from teens to their sixties, and still pick up different nuances and approaches that add different layers to our playing. Play on Kid!
That is actually how gifted he was. We spend a lifetime to learn the stuff that came natural for him and he didn’t even play for that many years
I played for about 4 years, then car accident broke my left arm, nerve damage in hand. I recall about 65-70% of the material. Now I'm getting back into it, and THESE types of breakdowns REALLLLLLLY help me. Because I need easy. But as I continue, the harder parts get easier.
Thank you young lady (is it ok to call you lady??? Rock chicks are REAL WOMEN!!!!!!!).
Always a pleasure to see you.. to hear you! Hear you! HEARRR!
Best guitar teacher ever! ♥️🙌🏻
You are a wonderful guitar player Ayla, and a great teacher too. I have watched many of your videos and I am always impressed by what you do. I love playing guitar but I simply don't get time to practice as much as I would like. Having said that, even if I did, I doubt I would ever be as good as you...keep rocking girl!!
That opening was so beautiful, you improvise well! Thank you for sharing.
Wow I played all them licks, while you were teaching, now just have to go back and learn to place them in the song and memorize them , thanks so much
Really really fantastic lesson (and insight). Thank you so much Ayla. Look out Guitar Center!! Ha ha.
What I *really* dig in some live versions of "Hey Joe" is that Jimi even throws in some Beatles quotes like the riffs of "I feel fine" and "Day tripper".
Pure genius.
Never knew this. Mind to share a link?
Yes ! The I feel fine riff! His love of the instument inspires me.
I've listened to pretty much all Jimi's live catalog which version are you referring to?
I've never heard the I feel fine fine riff but he did cover Day Tripper
@@blakewhittington4336 A quick search and listening session here on CZcams came up with these results:
- At the BBC Live, 1969 @ 6:08
- Live in Stockholm, 1969 @ 3:31 (combo with "Day tripper" @ 3:41)
- Live at Woodstock Music & Art Fair, 1969 @ 1:41
- Live at the Isle of Wight, 1970... almost a triplet here: hinted @ 0:41, then @ 1.46 (+ "Satisfaction" @1:58), then again @ 3:40.
I hope this helps.🙂

One of the most thought out and well detailed lessons ive seen. Thank you, Ayla!
Nice lesson. Thanks for sharing.
I loved it when Hendrix added in the "I feel fine" riff into live versions of Hey Joe.
And a bit of Day Tripper I think? ... goes down well at open mic's I find fer a bit of fun ;)
You’re the MASTER QUEEN
youre the master SIMP
The way you layer this lesson is brilliant, thankyou👍
My Goodness ! Merci beaucoup pour ce florilège sur les différentes approches de ce morceau d'anthologie. Vraiment trop bien. Pour tous les goûts ! Bravo ! Avec Jimi, on joue comme on aime...
Love this lesson!
That strat colour is mint! By the way!
This is such an incredible lesson! You are a natural born teacher. Your passion really comes through. Also, how do you get your guitar to growl like that? The bassy notes are insane!
really good demonstration,i love that rythm....thank you very much for that job
It took me a decade to master each level Musora demonstrating, or at least to realize I had the Ruby Slippers all along. Pay attention, and Musora thank you for sharing!
You often teach this old dog new tricks 🤣;
Great tutorial, really enjoyed it. The walking bass is an essential part of the song too, and really adds a new dynamic to your guitar playing as you're learning.
Fantastic!!! Great Tutorial. Please do more of those! I really enjoyed it!
She looks so delicate and feminine yet plays the guitar like a MONSTER 😂. Definitely one of the best Jimi lessons I've ever seen.
bruh
She doesn't look like Jimi Hendrix
Thank God
No she does. She’s the 6th level of Jimi Hendrix. Just gotta squint your eyes.
Kkkkkkk
Yeah they tried to get him for this but he was busy.
fantastic, my favorite breakdown of the song that changed guitar history
Absolutely wonderful analysis and tutorial! 👏👏🙏
