Sultans of swing has a lick using This as well
Yesterday i watched the video and tried the lick, then i realised that i know it somehow … today i played sultans and click 😂
Velvet Revolver - "Fall to pieces", great song, same arpeggio
I've gotten a few of Jeff's courses from TrueFire over the past couple of years. He is an amazing teacher! Really knows how to break things down and demonstrate how they work. I wish we had teachers like him available when I was a teen in the 80s, frustratingly going through all those showoffs on video cassettes that played too fast and never explained anything. Haha
Thank you! I couldn’t not ask for a greater compliment. I really appreciate it. 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I absolutely agree!!! Great teacher!!
Yep!! I agree with you!! Thank you Jeff for all your great teaching!!! 🙏💕
I presently have full access to TrueFire. I've separately purchased 9 of your courses (as well as purchasing courses from your website). I'm working my way through them one at a time so as not to get overwhelmed. I totally agree with the posters here. I've had many "a-ha" moments as a result of your teaching.
@@JeffMcErlain
I could not agree more! Jeff's a great teacher!
Beck's Bolero was probably the first example of the use this arpeggio in rock guitar, long live Jeff Beck! Thanks for this great and well explained lesson, Jeff 👏👏👏👏
Oh man! I can’t believe I forgot that one! Great call!
Thank you, Mr. McErlain! BTW, I love that Strat.
Allman Brothers - say no more. Arpeggio-chord relationship explained beautifully.
Thank you !
Awesome ! Thanks alot Jeff!
Clicked on and learnt something amazing, thanks Jeff.
You’re welcome!!
Those Humbuckers sound magical and look cool as hell on that beautiful Strat
Thanks! Ron Ellis LPRs. Really shine in this guitar. I’m very happy.
@@JeffMcErlain I went straight to the practice room with this lesson .Thanks lnstantly added some much needed color.
@@lastofthe4horsemen279 awesome! Thanks for letting me know!
That was excellent, Jeff. The best note is at 12:01 when the 5 of A (E) goes to that flat 7 of F (Eb) and then sounds slightly tweaked sharp maybe with the whammy bar. The last note was the coolest. Bad to the bone!
Nice arp! this is there in full two octaves in the Pink Floyd song " comfortably numb " first solo too : )
That colouring is supercool when paired with a blues lick! NICE
I lower video speed at 50% to watch all notes…but have fun listening to Jeff 😂🤘
Also in "Best of My Love" by Eagles, in the intro.
Funny, how when I started watching your videos, I would have to sit long and hard with them to really churn through all the information and make sure I understood it step by step. And now a couple years later, I can listen to your video with no guitar in hand, and follow right along, thinking oh yes, that makes sense and that makes sense and that makes all the sense in the world. It’s wonderful learning with you, pal.
Hey man! Thanks for this and that makes me very happy!!! Thank you for all your support as well, I really appreciate it! 🙏🏻
@@JeffMcErlain Indeed. It’s a terrific community you’ve assembled and your solid pedagogy earns our enthusiasm easily. See you in a few hours for today’ master class. I’m in that stage now where everything I learn rushes me forward in my musical progression. It’s rad.
I loved that. Thanks so much.
Also Mick Taylor on the Stones’ “Winter” 👍
Good stuff!
Yes! That one too!
Great lesson!
Jeff, thank you so much for that Video, witch seems so little but gives the ability to step out the blues-pentatonic. Made me so happy for hours and helpt me to step up. The combination of that arpeggio with the blues scale is magic! Thank you very much.. And also for your mother courses on truefire they are excellent!
Jeff, I love your guitar lessons mate, this was very cool, I love the way you explain concepts it makes it easy for this stuff to sink in, cheers from down under
Thanks!!
Thank you so much for this lesson.
You are most welcome!!
Interesting Jeff! I typically play the Gsus4 arpeggio over an Em.... Now I can play it over Am. Thanks!
You’re welcome!
Found you via a recent sub to TrueFire and really pleased I can now add your channel and website to my resources. You're both a great player and teacher, and those don't always go together! This little lesson will help me dust off my electric chops after a long lay off, without getting stuck in the nice but limiting pentatonic boxes too. Many thanks from London! 🎸🏆
Loved the video. Love the sound of the sus4 triad.
Thanks!!
Jeff, I watch the video twice. Thank God I watched it a second time when you showed me how to hook that to blues. It blew my mind right out of my head. I elevated off my bed with adrenaline. I absolutely love it it’s a discovery of my life thank you thank you thank you I’m a veteran of 30 years playing or longer but my god, my friend you give me gold.
Oh fantastic! Thant makes me happy!
Appreciate you Jeff
🙌🏻🙌🏻
Thank you. Very interesting sound. Breaks the monotony.
You are welcome!
I feel so validated when you teach me something I often use already lol and the exact songs I pulled it from
Ha! Cool!
Another cool insight. Love it! It’s sounds like a sweet palette cleanser when playing blues licks.
I’ve played this arpeggio on keys frequently in a rhythm context but I’ve never thought of translating it to lead guitar. It sounds great!
Thanks my friend! I look forward to hearing it on your record!
that's nice, i like it. i learned it.
Hey Jeff. From here in Australia.
Respect. 🙏
🤘🤘
Thanks for the great lesson. Killer tone by the way. And Sammy Hagar Eagles Fly uses it too.
Thank you Mr. Jeff 🙏
You’re welcome!
Simply, great. Jeff's always been one of my fav TrueFire instructors and this is one of THE best youtube videos I've seen. And I've seen a bunch...
Thank you!!!
Great lesson…. loved it and will be practicing along. Thanks much!!!
Well done Jeff! You're getting better at this, both teaching and putting the videos together! Keep it up mt friend!
Thank you and thanks for being here!
I also have quite a number of Jeff M’s DVDs from TrueFire.
I’m glad to see Jeff here where I can subscribe to his channel.
Great teacher and player!!
Also wears great hats!!
🙌🏻🙌🏻
Gilmour also uses it in Comfortably Numb, and Frampton uses it in the live version of "Something's Happening." 🙂
Great lesson. You're killing it, Jeff.
Thanks man!! As always…
Thanks, Jeff!
It makes a whole lot of sense in context. Something to work on for the week
🙌🏻🙌🏻
I wish I could give this lesson a thousand thumbs up!
Thanks! Me too! 🙏🏻😂
Excellent Jeff! Really adds color and feel through this approach!
Glad you like it!
Hi Jeff.....nice one...love it...makes a nice addition to the pentatonic blues scales...gives it an "airy" and melodic touch...allready incorporated in my arsenal...cheers and thx.....to NY.....see you....
🙌🏻🙌🏻
incidentally...the UK tv Show "Top Gear" used this arpeggio for their title tune.....but nothing "bluesey" about that one....haha@@JeffMcErlain
Sounds great jeff! Thanks 👍
Thank you Shawn, and you are welcome!
Thank you!!!
This was awesome, thank you!
Thanks!!
Great lesson Jeff - thanks so much !
Thank you and you’re welcome!
Great video Jeff! However, I need a better way to understand how to use it. Like, if I’m in a certain key, how do I apply it? I got lost trying to figure this out from the video. Any rule or example would be appreciated. I love the sound of the arpeggio. 😎 Thank you
@joeltoste938 I can try to help for now. Using this only for Major Arpeggios & we only use this for the "I" (Root) chord & the 5th chord. So in the key of "C Major" The first chord is C Major & the 5th chord is G Major. If we are in the key of "G Major" then we are using "G Major" which is the 1st/Root chord & D Major which is the 5th chord. If we are in "D Major" We would use D Major which is the 1st/Root chord & D Major which is the 5th chord. I can only assume/guess which I am not a fan off but if you know all the keys and their notes you are fine but if you do not know all the keys & their notes you may want to take some time and learn/study the Circle of 5ths & Circle of 4ths which will teach you all the notes in each key & how to figure them out quickly. I have an acronym or 2 I use to help memorize the the order of Sharps & order of Flats which goes along with the Circle of 5ths & 4ths. If you already know this please disregard and maybe it will help out someone else who isn't familiar with this part of music theory. Knowing the formula to create chords helps as well. What I do when I am having trouble learning from a new video lesson I am watching is this, I watch the video over and over many times and write down notes in my own notebooks I create just for music notes. I also use a ruler to create 6 even lines and write out my own tablature. Jeff provides free tablature for this lesson but sometimes I may need to write out more to make things easier for me to learn and memorize. You can also slow down the video during any part that might be difficult to view or see & I even download the video to my drive at times if I really need to spend time going over it as this allows more options to make things easier. Keeping my own notebooks full of lessons I write out myself has been a tremendous help for me & I have at least 8 - 5 subject notebooks full of lessons and theory stuff I wrote out myself while watching video lessons or from reading, etc.... I also write out my own ideas and chord progressions & solo tabs I come up with while practicing. I didn't mean to write a mini novel but I hope this helped for now until Jeff has the time to reply to you. sometimes if I just watch a lesson video several times over and over it can start to make things click in and make sense. We can get a lot of info fast from videos which is awesome & I think I can forget how much info I am taking in during one or two lesson videos. Plus, writing things out does help me memorize things & has been a method many of us humans have used for centuries to help learn and supplement our studying process. Have a great day/evening & good luck! Also, @Jeff McErlain Thanks for an awesome free lesson. I am a new subscriber to your channel & you are such an excellent teacher I always learn things very easily from you. I also love passing on what others have so graciously taught me for free over the years & believe in giving back to others the same way others have done for me. I look forward to watching all the videos on your channel & the new lessons that will be coming out as well.
Thanks Jeff a great lesson... as usual
Thanks Jeffrey!
Very cool, sounds great!
Thanks a lot!
Love this; thanks, Jeff. 😎
🙏🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Nice lick ...love your ideas on it ...thanks for sharing!
Thanks for being here!!
also a Slash lick from Velvet Revolver... good stuff Jeff, however the tab is slightly incorrect on the Gsus4... should be a 3 on the A, not a 5. Cheers!
Oops! Thanks! I’ll fix that! 🙌🏻🙌🏻
Great video. Thank you!
Thanks and you’re welcome!
What a fantastic video have a wonderful day also ny thumb is feeling better Jeff 😊
Glad to hear that your thumb is better!
Great lesson, I think it's also in Comfortably Numb?
Brilliant, Thanks!
Thank you!!
fantastic - I have 7 of your truefire courses and just subscribed
Thank you!!
Gilmore uses it on the first solo on Comfortably Numb too.
Hey Jeff, Awesome!👍🔥
Thanks!!
Great lesson Jeff. I think the technical term is "Melodic AF" :)
Ha! Yes. 😂
great stuff
Liked and Subscribed .... great series of lessons Jeff.
Thank-you for your efforts!!
Thanks and you are welcome!
Thank you!
You’re welcome!
It was used in bjovi
Nice. Thanks Jeff. 😎 T
You’re welcome Tim!
This is very cool! Is there a rule to duplicate it across keys? In a ‘specific’ minor progression, which arpeggios both work? Am, use Gsus4 (7th degree) and Csus4 (3rd degree)? Cheers!
Hi Jeff. Thank's for the lesson. A simple but so melodic and versatile descending line!
One question: I am not a super star in theory, but when the 3rd is played, then it in not "suspended" any more? I would have called it an Add 11 arpeggio...
Cheers.
I address that it could be seen/called a number of ways, you could certainly call it that. 👍 I hear it as a sound. All roads lead to Rome.
The sus4 arpeggio sounds like something Jim Messina used in "House at Pooh Corner".
I’ll check it out!
Great lesson! I’m on TrueFire - any lesson there going over this kind of thing?
What is the amp under your JM|Jeff McErlain sign ? Great lesson and well explained.
Thanks and that’s aTwo Rock Bloomfield Drive.
Awesome. Would love to know your signal chain for the intro playing.
I’m actually using a Fractal FM3 in a JTM45 model. The fuzz at the beginning solo is a Vemuram shanks 2.
Hey Jeff I just want you to know I appreciate you giving me this information also know that i support you by buying your truefire courses as well thank you for all you do an I hope to meet you one day 👍🏾🎸
Thank you so much to the support, I really appreciate it. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
pretty cool Jeff
Thanks!
Oh yes this defilionmixifridge must be under my couch somewhere next to this old moldy C that i lost a view weeks ago 😂...Thank you for the great video, you mercilessly reveal my mistakes 👌👍😄
LOL! Well I did go to school for this gobbeltygook… Just play and have fun! Thanks for being here!!
So many baby girls born in the 70s were given the name Jessica because of that magic arpeggio.
Ha!
👍
Thanks Jeff!!!
You’re welcome!
40+ yr player…not a pro.
This was a tremendously insightful, nutrient rich and 0% fat lesson. 👊
@@kmajor44 just the facts… 😂
😎
beauty guitar
What humbuckers are you using on this beautiful strat? Thanks !
Holy tone 😮
What pickups are you using?
Thanks! Ron Ellis!
Jeff, what did you swap out the Lollars to? Was it an improvement?
If I'm understanding this correctly Jeff, basically this arpeggio is built off the parent note of the key and then it work basically over every chord within that key? So like your first example was G-B-C-D from the key of G, then that could be played over G, Am, Bm, C, D, Em, F#dim and such just transpose for different keys? Thanks
Yup! Some will sound better than others depending on the resolution, but yes, exactly.
Fascinating instructional video Jeff.. 🖖 Of particular interest is how the common tones within the various chords change their intervallic relationship to the new tonic, beautiful harmony. One semantic curiosity; if our intervals in the wonderfully magical G arpeggio include "G,B,C, & D", would we not call it a Gadd4 arpeggio? A Gsus4 would suggest swapping out the C for the B, thus omitting the B? Or am I paralyzed because I analyzed? 🧐
Hey Sam! I kinda floated around the best way to name it. Both work but, yes the add 4 is probably more correct and thanks! I kinda hear it as an ornament on the triad. But I believe technically you are correct. 👊🙌🏻
Yeah, I see it as more of a G Major triad arpeggio + the tension note "C". When hitting the notes of the triad, you feel a sense of resolution.
Is that appragio used on sultans of swing??..RocknRollFlat5
5-Stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Thank you!
very good
Thank you!!
These little bits are awesome and actually make you sound better than you are. At least it fools my buddies. All the best
Thank you!!
Can you recommend a good course to learn the notes on the fretboard? Been playing a long time but have skipped a lot of basics and pretty much play by feel. Need to get the basics down.
Hey! I’m working on one but until then… my friend Jeff Scheetz did a great job with this. truefire.com/guitar-lessons/street-theory-for-guitarists/c1163
Pretty spanky Jeff..! See if I can get this under my fingers.. and in other keys..
Thanks man.!👍🏼❤️
Cool! 🙌🏻🙌🏻
Van Halen Runnin with Devil
Is this like the passage that sets up the bridge in Strawberry fields? (around 1:18) although that kinda sounds like it ends on the flat 7, hard to tell.
Yup! Same line for sure.
🤯
Is the song"falling to pieces"by Velvet Revolver an example of this arpesio?
Not sure!!
So where's the free chart & backing track?
Use the link in the description!
Are those new pickups? or just new covers?
New. These are Ron Ellis LRPs. I prefer them to the original Lollars.
I like what I hear so far but those lollars in that guitar made me really consider a set for one of my strats because they sound so articulate, almost like single coils. Thanks for all the tips too by the way. We ALL apreciate everything you share with us!!!@@JeffMcErlain
Jeff, sometimes when noodling around with simply strumming a chord progression, I find myself dropping in a sus 4 chord, I think this explains why it works or can fit in, would that be a fair assumption?
Yup!!
Nice to see and here but all these complications I am in my seventies haven't even taken the guitar out of the box watching these players puts me off even starting its still in the Garage also being ill doesn't help so I may just leave well alone .
This phrase is not a magic panacea. It should be used very sparingly. That sus4-M3 lick can get very annoying. Perfect 4ths sound bad over a major scale. Sus2s sound really cool, too.
👍
That is a great sound, like a waterfall. I guess it works because the 4th of the V chord is the root, so it is diatonic.
Yup!
