Andy quickly became one of my favorites when I discovered him 8 years ago. Love his tone, his creativity, his expression and even his demeanor as a person. His soul really comes out in his playing; Total masterful, Apex musician.
Saw him, Paul Gilbert and Guthrie Govan few years ago from a guitar clinic they held in my country. Unbelievable! Virtuousos playing on the highest level and yet so humble!
I have to say I watched these videos 5 or 6 years ago and it was to much for me but now coming back to this video I'm instantly incorporating these arpeggios and coming up with some nice melodic lines. As with all new stuff i know it will keep growing into even a deeper understanding. Thanks!
well this just makes so much sence. so over the chord you can use triads and arpeggios from ALL the diatonic chords in the same key. dude just opened up the effin fretboard . so over a d minor i dont only have to use d minor.
cypress dobro yeah but that kind of like saying you can play any subset of notes in the scale over any chord from the Key... As long as the scale is in the key. Which is the whole point of a scale and how it relates to a key
sam clark That is diminished seventh chords, not diminished triads. An E dminished triad would be E G Bb. Em7b5 would add a D natural, not a Db. The key of F only has a Bb.
It's true when you take seventh chords. Four note chords. But these are triads. So Bb diminished triad is not the same as E diminished. Bb-Db-Fb.(E ) E-G-Bb
Wonder if you use caged at all? For me, it's my saving grace but it looks like these triads fill in all the missing pieces between the shapes.. Nice stuff Andy!
You played E dim triad and called it Bb dim, luckily I knew it was meant to be E dim but not sure others would know that, I enjoy your playing by the way.
can anyone, with actual playing experience, tell me about his guitar's neck? I love the looks/sound of this guitar but the neck seems super narrow? is it really?
Correct, but to be precise, he uses 2 DiMarzio The Cruiser DP187 (bridge model) in the neck position and the middle position. Treble bleed on 500K volume pot, made with a 0,002uF capacitor in parallel with a 100K resistor
Andy is cool. His clean sound is a Keeley modded Boss Bluesbreaker pedal, played into a Mesa Lonestar amp. But he uses a treble mod on his guitar volume pot, that allows the guiter not to loose treble as he just rolls i back for cleans. This gives him the nice cleans, but you hear the grit when he digs in a little to the frets.

as always he makes it look so easy...
This is one of the most dynamic lessons I've seen in a while.

awesome video
Great focus in soloing...,diatonic,sauced,,articulated,creative,using chord tones,unable to miss involved tones.
Hey, Garth, that was a haiku.
Andy is great, a great guitarist and great teacher
good stuff. No fancy techniques, just super solid basics.
Andy is such a cool guy, very likeable and personable. Such an amazing musician and guitarist of course as well.thanks for the lesson Andy 🤘
TASTE, FEEL, CHOPS... Andy's got it ALL!

Great lesson. Great tone. TY.
well this just makes so much sence.

so over a d minor i dont only have to use d minor.

Great posts. All of them
Great lessons
Awesome 👍
Thanks Andy that was very helpful.
thumbs up buddy that guitar is awesome man great lesson thankx and happy christmas
Simply awesome
Great guitarist 👍👍
He is one of the greatest. Even if he doesn't really knows, what triad is on the seventh degree of F major scale.
Doesn' really know...sorry for my poor english
Amazing :) He's the same man that played with Jennifer batten and Uli Roth!!!!
Leson cry for you bro
They are the same thing. They share the same notes if it's diminished.
E, G, Bb, Db - Edim
Bb, Db, E, G - Bbdim
All a minor third apart.
sam clark That is diminished seventh chords, not diminished triads. An E dminished triad would be E G Bb. Em7b5 would add a D natural, not a Db. The key of F only has a Bb.
It's true when you take seventh chords. Four note chords. But these are triads. So Bb diminished triad is not the same as E diminished. Bb-Db-Fb.(E ) E-G-Bb
Why are notes like the flatted 6th not as popular in blues? Is it just me to find it odd that blues tends to be an over emphasis on thirds?
Thats a pinch harminic at 7:55 id love to have!
Wonder if you use caged at all? For me, it's my saving grace but it looks like these triads fill in all the missing pieces between the shapes.. Nice stuff Andy!
You played E dim triad and called it Bb dim, luckily I knew it was meant to be E dim but not sure others would know that, I enjoy your playing by the way.
Not wrong nor right, he's approaching the arpeggios ascending from the 5th of each chord, the 5th(flattened) of Bbdim is E.
Paul Cox ^^exactly. It's the same chord just different name
He should reference it as half diminished to help the students for future reference 🤘🏼🔛🆒💌🥰🌀💫🎵🎶🎵🎶📶📶🎸
Wow Tone...
beast :)
can anyone, with actual playing experience, tell me about his guitar's neck? I love the looks/sound of this guitar but the neck seems super narrow? is it really?
B flat diminished? Isn't it E diminished in the key of F major/d minor?
Awesome ideas. Also, what kind of pickups are those ?
+Rob Williams That is Andy's signature Ibanez, the humbucker is a Dimarzio AT1, (Andy Timmons 1), the singles are Dimarzio Cruisers.
Correct, but to be precise, he uses 2 DiMarzio The Cruiser DP187 (bridge model) in the neck position and the middle position. Treble bleed on 500K volume pot, made with a 0,002uF capacitor in parallel with a 100K resistor
9 minutes I can work on for years. no reason to buy the whole thing eh :)
that was fantastic! is that a rg550?
Super Zombie at1
no, it's an RT, well actually his sig guitar is an AT, same body shape as an RG but slightly more traditional neck
and as we know, Dm is the saddest of all keys
I’m pretty sure that Andy Timmons is just Dave Gilmour in disguise
I mean , have you seen them in the same room?!
“ Now we know that d aeolian comes from the key of f major “
No sir we don’t
How are you getting that great sound? Amp. pedal? Very cool
Andy is cool. His clean sound is a Keeley modded Boss Bluesbreaker pedal, played into a Mesa Lonestar amp. But he uses a treble mod on his guitar volume pot, that allows the guiter not to loose treble as he just rolls i back for cleans. This gives him the nice cleans, but you hear the grit when he digs in a little to the frets.
The guitar neck radius seems so small
Arpeggios get you late period!
4:39 how do you play that chord?
I'd say those are just octaves.
he looks like jeff loomis
He skipped the Emin7 b5
I always knew David St.Hubbins knew his stuff
Huh?
Недомірок шариться у вуха... тому не чує кращмх людей України !!!
Sticking to D minor made this the saddest of all lessons
As a new person trying to learn triads, this is pretty damn useless lol So heads up if you're new to triads.
