I like to listen to Mr.Hess lessons. It makes me think I can do what he can do, but I can't 😅

Awesome lesson!!! What's the best way to learn all the guitar modes? Can you do video lesson for the modes? big thanks.

[@jacebastian7192]

I've been wanting to play really cool Richie Kotzen-style legato for a while, but haven't been able to yet... can't wait to use these tips to help fix that!

[@garyholland403]

Excellent! Great advice and examples, as always! It would be great to see a future video with your thoughts and recommendations on incorporating slides into legato technique.

[@levinwolf1593]

Hey Mr. Hess, i highly apreciate you spreading this highly worthy knowledge.
Your approach to the instrument towards efficiency etc amazes me and inspires me...
I wanted to thank you for making this knowledge available for me (and others) ive wanted to ask u for advice on diving deeper into implementing music theory in a practical sense (i watched ur livestreams on that topic but a seperat video would be amazing. Somethink like implementing knowledge of triads or the chord scale relationship or basic harmony in progression....)
Keep it up and excuse my articulation its not my first language '-'

[@MovieMomentsReviewFilm]

🙌 SUBSCRIBED! Primo content and presentation! Thank you!

[@Sat123it]

Mr. Hess thank you so much for this and other lessons. So clear explanation and with such positive energy... It is clear how much you love our instrument. And I love it so much as well I try to learn as much as I can, I play just for myself and for fun and pleasure, for sure I am not even near a half of your dexterity but I enjoy listen to you and try your advices. If I can ask you something It would be nice to have more execises to practice as the last one in this lesson.... it is a simple sequence but it works so well... I would like to have a complete riff like that 😊 tomorrow I will download the PDF and I will probably find them there. Great job anyway. Thank you so much for your commitment and professionality.
