  • Tool's 46&2 is one of my all time favorite tracks to jam and perform. It's not too demanding from a technique standpoint but it can definitely be rhythmically challenging. There is a lot of meter switching from 7/8 and 4/4.

    Its amazing how tool can take one riff and play it a hundred different ways and make such a good song

    I'm a beginner and learned 46 & 2 because of this video lesson in about 3-4 hours. I definitely need to keep practicing to make it a lot smoother, but it sounds decent or at least my wife and kids didn't laugh hysterically at me like some other tunes I've worked on. Thanks for the lesson!

    You're amazing, bro. Not only do you give a tutorial on how to execute songs by one of the most unique bands at all time, said songs are known pantydropping machines. Axe, you are the wingman gotham deserves!

  • @axeofcreation
    @axeofcreation  11 ปีที่แล้ว +13

    Thanks! You don't have to play it like Jones. However you can express the music is the most important. As long as the notes are the correct pitch!

    Hey man. Just wanted to thank you for the Tool guitar lessons. I just picked up guitar after about an 18 year hiatus and I was always better at learning seeing someone play. Now my buddies are long gone but at least TH-cam can give someone like me a little face to face time thanks to you. You are a natural player and teacher. Keep up the awesome work bro! Thanks again.

    I brought that up because I've received so many comments telling me something is "wrong" because of the position or I didn't slur something and that's just silly. Play it however you can express yourself and the song best not be a copycat player.

    Thanx man. This is the third Tool song I'm learning from you and and so far your advice and teaching is right on! Tool's songs are relatively simple but playing them properly with the right rhythm and precision is the hard part.

    thanks Axe for all your Tool lesson videos.
    Started playing guitar a few months ago (last time I played as a kid) and your lessons really kept me motivated.
    this was the first song by tool that i learned (not perfectly of course).
    Videos really help because of timing and technique.
    And it is very hard to find good tabs for tool and you tabs are the best I have seen.
    (btw. on some tabs like 46 and two and Pot - there are places where you forgot to add number of repeats on some lines).
    keep up the good work and thanks for all your effort, youre a great teacher and I really enjoy watching you perform.
    Greetings from Croatia.

  • @axeofcreation
    @axeofcreation  11 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Well, I use 10's most of the time but right now I have 11's on there. I find it helps really thicken things up as well as help sustain. I would use at least 10's to help out the balance. 9's are a little flimsy when any detuning takes place.

  • @marczwander893

    Mute the lower strings with your right hand, in a sense palm muting the string you aren't playing. The left hand also does some light muting by nudging up on the string that aren't being played (the right hand shouldn't be in position to mute the treble strings)

    I always count the staccato ending part as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 (x3) and then 1,2,3. The only part that gets me the part you talked about with the bass doing something over top. I can't keep the count in my head.

  • @axeofcreation

    No. I have one quick video of a solo from my last project (check uploads Prog Solo) and some play through demonstrations (including this song) on my website, the link is in the description. Hopefully I'll be uploading some live performances very soon!
