How many levels of feeling can you express once you already hit the guitar as hard as you can? Advice of a novice! Get real, yo, Taaleek's "Jesus Look theory" is obviously the true mainstay of the technique.
You miss one important: reggae strumming. A typical example is the bridge of Can’t stop. He muted all the downstrokes and only plays the upstrokes. It gives a rly chilling vibe. The technique is also featured in the outro of Under the bridge
Excellence! You are a true Master of the Electric Guitar! As one of your dedicated students and subscribers and a player for over 56 years, I’ve watched all of your lessons numerous times with growing respect. The overall vibe for me in “Your Guitar Magic” (and by no means the only thing) is your genuine and readily apparent lifelong love affair with and respect for the Electric Guitar. The excitement and love you continually and naturally express are obvious in your your playing , emotionally speaking, and is absolutely genuine and well expressed in your instruction. I love how you successfully capture great legendary players’ styles and are able to pass those styles succinctly and coupled with all of your personal Guitar Magic directly to your students. Anyone with just a little bit of experience knows that you have and continue to put tons and tons of personal time and work and rehearsal effort into your own learning. Then you capably distill famous players’ styles and skills and present the style as opposed to teaching songs or riffs. This is absolutely difficult if not impossible for most. This magic, your magic, enables your electric guitar students that have the vision to develop their own style (as opposed to simply learning songs and riffs) by learning and understanding how others express themselves “technically with emotion” and letting that style affect how they develop their own style. One sweet example you share in this video lesson about Frusciante is where you are able to express “his emotion” in his vibrato with several fingers on several strings up the neck. So seemingly simple on the surface (but not really) and you captured that “technical magic” and expressed it so well to me; I was jamming last night with some friends and found myself trying to use a little of that technique with my personal “emotional vibrato” in my playing. So cool!! Yes indeed! You have reignited my love affair with the EG. Keep up the Excellence and🙏 thank you!! Randy Orange 🍊
I was EXTREMELY sceptical punching up this video, but you did a damn good job on this! I wish you continued success with these instructionals ..bravo brutha!
I didnt know you made a frusciante episode!!! Man, he is the greatest guitar model for me and he is my motivation to keep learning how to play. I think you really captured some of his sounds and did a great job explaining. And now that i listened to you breaking down his techniques, songs sound clearer to me. Btw listen him play 19. Jam at the end jam of 2006 chorzow consert. You can really hear the techniques you talked about!!
It's pretty good for me to revisit his style. I was in a freaking mood of playing, kinda his way, in 2014-2017.But after a long break and many downs in life, including hearing loss gettin' worse, I choose to came back to understand this style again. And man are my fingers weak if I try to doin' the shredy solo end of dani california or turn it again. Your Video here is a pretty good recap amd refresh🙂
It IS great when you have some one like Flea playing with you, which of course we all do. Lol i'm just messing with ya. Great video man! You're videos are extremely helpful.
Thanks for all your great vids bud. I had that same static issue in my 25 year old crybaby and got a new potentiometer for the internals; no more static!
Ah I was going to mention that 'mistake' in the first post of this vid. Johns all about those unison bends. You should definitely add a section talking about his use of the whammy bar as well. Great vid man 👍🏻
just started watching your artist-specific videos. terrific job. some of the best guitar content I've seen on youtube. have you considered jonny greenwood of radiohead?
What comes naturally to me playing is nothing like John but i love his playing and wish i had more of his vibe when i play. He's a phenomenal and original player. His solo in Dani California is amazing.
And John Frusciante is probably in my top favorite guitar players, too. He's truly incredible. It's a shame he's switched gears to electronic music since then. He's not nearly as good at that as he is at guitar.
I reckon he so thoroughly found his voice with guitar - think about how amazing niandra lades is with just a clasical guitar and a tape recorder - that there wasn't any further to go. So a new medium had to call. I can;t blame him for quitting RHCP because for him that journey had gone as far as it could go.
what you were showing at 5:55 had me messing around with those chords and I found playing Lean On Me sounds really good that way, fingerpicked of course.
inUR2teeth piano doesnt mean slow Edit:looking back on it, i was told constantly that piano is not slow, it is a amatuer tendancy (i play trombone orchastral/band and jazz as well as guitar)
out of the bunch of "Frusciante's guitar style" videos I found this to be the most practical and helpful so far! Thanks a lot, it's inspiring and very well explained in my opinion.
Dave Simpson literally goes over the theory John uses, the tone, the way scar tissue is made and how you can make a scar tissue like song, he teaches you how to come up with embellishments for the songs and how to solo the music, is it "practical" maybe not but it certainly improved my playing and my ability to make music by miles
Just saying, on the third intervals, I learnt it explained that it was the root and the note that determines if it's major or minor on the regular chord shape
I can understand that using thumb and middle finger is easier to play. But pick is the key to get the tone of Scar Tissue. In the riff you can hear something like gnawing. That’s because his uses the pick to hit the two strings amid (muted). Also, don’t strum it hard, do it mildly, just like quickly going through an arpeggio. Then you ll get the magic scar tissue tone: clean yet dirty, warm yet despair. Also, Frusciante never does hybrid picking. It’s just stupid: your pick hits the low string and your finger hits the high string, which makes the low F sounds louder
The-Art-of-Guitar thanks for responding I want to ask you something I started when 12 now I am nearly 14 and I can play ok by that I mean I can play hard riffs and some solos but I am not than good with making my own stuff that might be because I don't know much music theory do you have any advice.
+That's why I started my lesson site. I had a lot of people say the same thing so I wanted to put everything I know online. Very common not to know what you're doing but when you do many things open up. :) Samuel Kurcik
+Samuel Kurcik I'd learn enough to be able to do what I want to do. My lesson site is made for people who want real world theory that can be used right away. You shouldn't have o know how to play every mode before being able to improvise. :)
The obvious suggestion after a Frusciante video is to make one on the techniques of his supposedly favourite guitarist (that virtually no one knows of or cares about!), Vini Reilly of The Durutti Column.
Finger strength, practicing vibrato and bends, pentatonic knowledge (it's such a basic scale/pattern that it's almost instinctive when you've been playing for a couple of years). So basically just normal guitar experience/practice lol.
I've always been envious of guitar player who can mute the low E and A string with their thumb, I can get the E, but never the A. My thumb doesn't bend at a 90 degree angle.
If you learn the technique of John Frusciante you really are learning an appetizer platter of Jimi Hendrix Jimmy Page mixed in with funk and punk. His 2 note style of playing is the only thing I've never come across before him
And if you learn the techniques of Page and Hendrix you’re really learning an appetizer of BB King, Elmore James, and John Mayall mixed in with psychodelia and hard rock. Everyone had hero’s, it’s making it your own that forms your technique.
HigherPlanes Are you sure about that ? John always said that he used to mute strings with his left hand so he wouldn't bother being precise with his right hand : Just look at Can't Stop for example, loads of strumming with some massive attack and that left hand mute to compensate for the lack of accuracy

how to play like john: hit the guitar with the right hand as hard as you can, and play with so much feeling you can. done
especially on acoustic, i feel bad for his guitars
How many levels of feeling can you express once you already hit the guitar as hard as you can? Advice of a novice! Get real, yo, Taaleek's "Jesus Look theory" is obviously the true mainstay of the technique.
You nailed it! Your comment was the most beneficial guitar lesson I’ve ever learned! Thank you 😊
After you finish an artist series, you should jam using all of the techniques to see how close you can get to sounding like the artist.
Good idea 😃
Surely if you pause for a moment, you'll realize he does this all the time but doesn't promote it on YT.
You miss one important: reggae strumming. A typical example is the bridge of Can’t stop. He muted all the downstrokes and only plays the upstrokes. It gives a rly chilling vibe. The technique is also featured in the outro of Under the bridge
The Tremolo Pickin technique over multiple Strings is SICK !!

it cant be overstated how influenced Frusciante is by Jimi-

do a video on jerry cantrell

and this guy is the knowledgeable guy I came across .......your SG sounds holy
Keeping that open string ringing on your octave chords gives a nice pedal tone
Such a great teacher man, well done
That was great men, maybe a Josh Homme techniques would be cool
Josh Homme would be great. Like any great guitarist...he's got an utterly unique style.
Yessss!
Easy play a hollow body guitar, stoner riffs and swear at your fans
Awesome, really like the way you break it down.
And John Frusciante is probably in my top favorite guitar players, too. He's truly incredible. It's a shame he's switched gears to electronic music since then. He's not nearly as good at that as he is at guitar.
voteZDLR What do u mean he's "not nearly as good at it"? You mean you don't like one as much as the other...
I reckon he so thoroughly found his voice with guitar - think about how amazing niandra lades is with just a clasical guitar and a tape recorder - that there wasn't any further to go. So a new medium had to call. I can;t blame him for quitting RHCP because for him that journey had gone as far as it could go.
i don't agree. John nearly in the other dimension. he loved other dimension of music.
@@buzzin-hornet He probably means that if you compare Frusciantes electronic music to Kraftwerk or whatever, Frusciantes music sucks
Agree his new music is wack. But hey, gave us so many great albums. Niandra and Smile are always great when you're feeling down.
what you were showing at 5:55 had me messing around with those chords and I found playing Lean On Me sounds really good that way, fingerpicked of course.
Love this series. Great approach 🤗
please dont stop. Great videos
Abbas Gapuri can't stop, addicted to the shindig
Nitrotigerz Chop Top, he says I’m gonna win big
STACCATO = SEPARATE, SINGLE NOTE PICKING
LEGATO = LINKED, ATTACHED
PIANO = SLOW, SOFT
FORTE = HARD, LOUD
RAPIDO = FAST
LENTO = SLOW
inUR2teeth piano doesnt mean slow
Edit:looking back on it, i was told constantly that piano is not slow, it is a amatuer tendancy (i play trombone orchastral/band and jazz as well as guitar)
None of you are right
INURMOMO = PREGNANT
HOTEL = TRIVAGO
Piano = quiet
Underrated guitar player of all time
These Technique vids are awesome.

"If you have some pain in your life .. " so true :d
Loved the octave elevator
Thx for the job of analysis 👍🎸
Awesome lesson! How about a breakdown of Jeff Healey's techniques?
Please do MUSE... I've never seen you tackle them on any of your videos... :(

7:22 is the lick to the beginning of our of site by built to spill... the maj to the minooor
You da man Mike!
love that cry baby- my one and only pedal
Do this for Johnny Marr!
The "spread out thirds" at 6:08 sound like Rugrats!
Dig your channel and lessons alot! I really enjoy your point of view on the instrument and different players' techniques.
Would love to see a Jerry Garcia Techniques video if you willing!!
Play sloppy, shitty, generic country/blues rock stuff, that's pretty much it
I'm 50yrs old and have never had a lesson ever but I would def have you teach me.....I can fake it pretty good but
18:29 A full amazing holy cover of STH
Johnny Marr please :)
Just saying, on the third intervals, I learnt it explained that it was the root and the note that determines if it's major or minor on the regular chord shape

where is heartbreaker solo it's here and you would be great teaching it and playing solo
MARK TREMONTI please !!!
tremendo video firme
Awesome video. I'd love to see one for Dean DeLeo of Stone Temple Pilots.
Oooh....great idea! He's super underrated as a guitarist.
Please
Do you make music yourself? If so I'd like to check it out :)
When have you started playing guitar and how long have you been playing.
Hey. When I was 13. 28 years. :0
The-Art-of-Guitar thanks for responding I want to ask you something I started when 12 now I am nearly 14 and I can play ok by that I mean I can play hard riffs and some solos but I am not than good with making my own stuff that might be because I don't know much music theory do you have any advice.

What's your favorite tea?
*John Fruscian-tea*
What's it like to be a guitar God? Ur vid's blow me away with info I could not even come close to think of.
Jbeliski If being a guitar god means someone who practiced 8 hours a day then I guess it feels quite spry. ;)
8 hours a day? damn don't your hands hurt playing that long? do you do any hand stretches or any strengthening exercises?
Obviously you can't start practicing 8 hours a day off the bat, but as your hands get stronger then you can definitely build up to it.
Brady Carroll We do a finger yoga thing on the site. Check it out if you want.
Hmmm....Billy Corgan guitar techniques?
I know this vids a couple years old, but what delay pedal are you using for the reverse guitar? Maybe a gear video? If you haven't done one already.
The obvious suggestion after a Frusciante video is to make one on the techniques of his supposedly favourite guitarist (that virtually no one knows of or cares about!), Vini Reilly of The Durutti Column.
22:11 This Technique and my 11th gauge made it my hard to play fluently and my fingers began to cramp...😐
It would be helpful if you use a term such as tremolo picking, maybe define it
What chord were you using for the 1st example Tremolo .. sounded awesome but couldn't see your finger position ? Thank you
what do I need to learn to play like 24:12 ????
slash9697 um. Pentantatonic boxs? How to bend?
Finger strength, practicing vibrato and bends, pentatonic knowledge (it's such a basic scale/pattern that it's almost instinctive when you've been playing for a couple of years). So basically just normal guitar experience/practice lol.
Great vid as always, but do not, I repeat, do not put wd40 in your wah pot! Used contact cleaner or solder in a new pot! Lol
What make and size strings do you use and why? Have you tried an assortment of makes and sizes?
You have my shoes!!
What kind of fuzz pedal is that? It sounds great
GREAT playing man 👏👏👏
Mais um inscrito!!
nice shirt
Ok, I gotta get a wah and a fuzz pedal right now.
pls also do John Mayer
Already did!
oh, sorry. thanks for the great lessons.
How knows how John makes his guitar scream with the whammy bar and him reaching over and messing with his strings behind the nut??
Boss Ds2
I've always been envious of guitar player who can mute the low E and A string with their thumb, I can get the E, but never the A. My thumb doesn't bend at a 90 degree angle.
I envy the large hand of players like Jimi, Robert Johnson, or Eddie Hazel. Lol
If you learn the technique of John Frusciante you really are learning an appetizer platter of Jimi Hendrix Jimmy Page mixed in with funk and punk. His 2 note style of playing is the only thing I've never come across before him

I heard Frusciante say in an interview to play his style you have to be quick and exact with the right hand.
HigherPlanes Are you sure about that ? John always said that he used to mute strings with his left hand so he wouldn't bother being precise with his right hand : Just look at Can't Stop for example, loads of strumming with some massive attack and that left hand mute to compensate for the lack of accuracy
John Frusciante utilizes a lot of octave stuff in his lead play.
@8:12, u mean hybrid picking, not travis picking.
20:24 wow that’s funkay
hey, whats the pedal you are using for the reverse sound ? thanks
Line 6 DL-4
Thanks
Which strat is this? I have never seen this nut on guitar before.
Do Nick Valensi techniques
