Hi all, thanks for the tips about mounting the guitar mount in a stud, BUT:
In Holland we usually do not have studs & dry wall, but concrete or brick. This particular wall is at least 20cm thick! Cheers!
Paul Davids Don’t put your guitar on the wall , put it on a typical well made guitar stand , or in the case with proper humidity. 47% . I do this and have a digital humidity gauge in my 2 cases . I have a Eric Clapton Stratocaster. And a new Ovation with Tiger Eye Maple 🍁 I sold my Marshall stack and bought a new Fender Deluxe Reverb 1975 Retro amp
I take a 1 by 6 piece of wood which is thin but strong I screw that to the wall on to the studs then I am able to mount my guitar anyway I need to with the wall hanger I wish I could send a picture to you and I would show you I have 14 guitars on one piece of wood
Standard dutch brick wall you will need a concrete plug. it will anchor itself when you put in the actual wall mount screw.
@@kermitsbench7057 ...if you get it deep enough to get into the wall itself, that is. I think that's the mistake Mr. Davids made: the anchor he used is only long enough to get through the plaster coating, but doesn't reach very far (at all?) into the wall itself.
Here in the 'States, we have long "blue screws" that are specially coated and hardened for drilling directly into concrete walls, and they always look unnecessarily-long to me. This is why.
@@trevorgwelch7412, but then you have to pick them up to clean under them. :-P
Plus, we manly-men-with-beards-and-stuff aren't good at picking out interior decorations. Paul is solving two problems at once here.
The perfect video, not too slow, not explaining pentatonics as if explaining to a beginner, not explaining chords.
Just perfect for the average blues guitarist
And has a nice clean tone on a Les Paul, another rarity of youtube lesson makers
My thoughts exactly. But at the same time, it also gently teaches that pentatonics is a thing, which is good for us beginners too.
ya hes actualy a great videographer....tru dat
No just spent a minute talking bout a sound he heard coming from the wall
It’s fantastic how accessible you make seemingly complicated licks. You’re not painstakingly slow in how you break it down, nor are you breathtakingly fast. You teach at just the right speed, granting the masses access to the collective treasure trove of tasty licks. Sir, you’re doing the Guitar Lord’s work.
The way Paul is breaking this down is super helpful. This lesson is going to take my blues playing to new level. Can't wait to dive in!
Josh Smith is obviously incredible. Some people believe he's a Blues player, but he's just a player....period. Good walk-through analysis of his playing. Thank you.
Okay, that may be the most beautiful guitar I have ever seen in my life. (The Les Paul)
Hate those unexpected moments of panic! Especially when it concerns guitars and the law of gravity
Indeed a bad combo.
Lets be honest, the strat probably would have gotten a couple small dings and a scratch, now if it was a Les Paul you'd be looking through the phonebook for a luthier to glue the headstock back on ;)
@@PaulDavids I don't know how John Mayer got away with the combo
That's why I don't hang mine on a wall even if they looks awesome there XD.
Years ago when I was a young lad, I carried my 60's, 345, red, gibson to the top of my stairs, in the case, without hooking any of the latches. It came out of the case and slid down a full flight of stairs. I was horrified but lucky for me the stairs were carpeted and no damage at all. Whew. Lesson learned.
I'm uncertain why several people 'disliked' this, but, ok... jazz-blues is such a thing of beauty, whether it's in your wheelhouse or not! Excellent vid, Paul...
Beautiful. You're choice of subjects and your presentation are both fascinating and lucidly explained EVERY TIME. Absolutely one of my favorite go-to video spots for guitar instruction. I always come away a better guitar player. What else can I say? Thank you!!
I've taken a lesson in person with Josh Smith and he is an encyclopedia of knowledge when it comes to music and guitar. I feel like I couldn't write all my notes fast enough. He opened me up to a whole new world of looking at guitar and music in general.
Paul Davids and TH-cam... A cosmic convergence..... Simply the best.
If you dig the guy that this lesson is based off of, his name is Josh Smith (the guy at the beginning on TH-cam) and he is a MONSTER player. Check out the vids he did at NAMM 2019 and be prepared to be blown away. Nice lesson!
Josh is killer.... everyone here should check him out. that is all...
Situational awareness for the win on saving the red strat. Good job.
If you have about 7 times more views than the source material, you're probably doing something right. Excellent video as always
From one Paul to another: thank you! It's TH-camrs like you that enabled me to finally mail down guitar as a hobby of mine that I've been wanting for so long. A few years ago I started and only wanted to be able to lazily strum some things as a way of soothing myself when I'm lacking other creative outlets, but was so delighted as I continued to progress into what we might call intermediate? Anyway, these videos give me something to work on without pressure, connecting me back to my soul and feelings and sense of accomplishment in some of the darkest times of my life. Thanks ❤❤❤
Very clever. I can see why your channel is successful. Everything u focus on is tasty to the max.👍🎸
Yes he's always serving us lol
I heard the sounds you mentioned at 0:28 and 0:36 on my left ear while wearing headphones. Almost made my head turn to the left. Nice thing you did there :)
I was so mad
Thank you so much for this Paul. I've been in a rut for about a month and I love love the blues but hadn't anywhere to go until this. This is perfect. Thank you so much for taking the time out for us.
I'm trying to learn this collings video on my own, then I saw your vid. That's what we call blessing. Thanks, Paul!
I like your style I'm a songwriter learning about the guitar to make it easy for me in the studio thank you so much for your
It's super cool to see the guitar with fingerprints and all that, shows that it's being used and not just a wall piece
Tx super teacher mr Paul. I can try everytime. Bravo🎸
so simple and classy but so difficult and full of subtle details
Hi Paul, I'm so glad you were home when this happened, it could have been a heart-breaker to find your strategy on the floor in pieces. Be sure to always secure to a stud or structural member. I love this piece you taught us here. So bluesy and jazzy. I'll be working on it until I get it. Thanks so much.
Steve
My guitar strategy is in pieces too.
@@stingaling LOL
The light and shade and feel is a beautiful thing. I am working on this with these licks and it will absolutely help develop my overall playing. Thank you 🙏
Another great thing to note is how Josh puts accents on certain notes, definitely worth practising as well!
The chords I hear are those (had to play them while you played to better understand what you/Josh are doing)
Bb Bb Bb Bb
Eb Eb Bb G
C F Bb F
Edit: also thanks for a great series of licks, exactly what I needed :)
Fantastic! Thanx for your work! 👍 greetings from Austria
thankyou for that blues lesson it was very helpful
Cheers from North Idaho, USA !
Loving what you do!
Can you do a video about Jazz??? Pleeeeeaaaaaassssseeee i love your videos!!!!!😍😍😍
Awesome lesson especially the b3 - b7 part.
I know this is old but I wanted to say how much this lesson inspired me to write my own licks. Your best lesson thank you Paul
I feel like being stuck in pentatonics the last years but this video showed me what you can do within them. This is inspiring.
It's known that guitarists instantly aquire super-human speed and reflexes to catch a falling guitar 🎸🎸🎸
Josh smith is one of my favs and hats off mr. David's another success cheers!
Jij bent geweldig met een gitaar voor mijn hersens man Paul, kom niet verder maar dankzij meerdere van jou video's wel weer. Thx man
You polyglot Dutch folks always amaze me how you can speak English (and probably German and couple of other languages as well ) better than a lot of native speakers. Well done video, thanks.
I'm astounded too. I feel like I haven't mastered my own language, yet these guys use multiple languages and slang in each of the languages. And...his licks are pretty tasty.
I was watching this and when you said something about your wall mount, I looked up and saw one of my mounts coming off too. Thanks. lol
Thank God for music!
0:50 yeah. My guitar, the hanger and a piece of the wall fell off the wall a month ago.
Windoos . Make sure you screw them into the studs in the wall with wood screws man!!
Thank you Paul. Very tastey . You make TH-cam ,fun , informative and * MUSICAL*
What an utterly beautiful piece to listen to and even better to play. I've followed Paul for years now but became a Patreon just purely on the back of this.
Almost perfect video! What would have made this simpler and faster to learn is to have a backbeat (or just a clicktrack) while you play the complete lick. I can only speak for myself, but the way I learn new music is 50% through the beat. Nevertheless, I learned some new kickass licks! Thank you very much! :)
Thank you Paul very well done.
I’m so glad that you were showing josh smith licks in this he’s one of my two favorite guitarist
I'm normaly not very much into licks videos but this one is realy different and not about giving away "tabs" it's about analyzing the lines harmonicaly as well .
The transcription is on Soundsclice. It's from a Josh Smith promo video for Collings guitars. He also does promo for Collings at Namm. Often accompanied by Kirk Fletcher. The Norm Rare Guitars de Angelico 1942 performance is similar to this one, and is also on Soundsclice if you search Josh Smith.
Coz the nail can't hold yo guitar skills !💜
Beautiful ! Thank you, with study this licks with a new guitar partner, as a first challenge
THX a lot, Paul, for this cool and really great lesson! You are a very good teacher imho - not just showing up but serving your students. I could understand and follow all your instructions and examples.
I see that sneaky cut at 16:09
AWESOME video as Josh Smith is an AMAZING guitarist! I remember the first time I ever heard him play it was on TH-cam with Joe Bonamassa on that cruise they do every year and I was blown away at his playing! Great video once again as I'm gonna spend some time learning & more importantly understanding exactly what he's doing. :)
Thanks for breaking this one down Paul, super cool blues licks, had a lot of fun learning these! =)
Make sure you screw your guitar mounts directly into the wooden studs using long enough wood screws to go deep into the stud. Don’t just screw into the drywall even if you use drywall plugs. Love your videos 👍🇨🇦
Damn the lick at 0:21 is so good. Who would of thought of doing that while playing guitar. Wow.
Thank you for this Paul. You are such a gift to guitar players around the world.
Love the elements in this piece. In the third lick(phrase), it finishes with the 8 to 6 on the B, then reflects the pattern in chord form by going from an Eb to the slide-in Bb is a wonderfully creative example of the technique, call and response. There are so many of those little nuanced devices hiding in this piece that it is a listening treasure hunt for the ears.
Brilliant lesson as usual...!!!
Thanks so much! Regards from Argentina!
I have a sweet 1964 and 1968 all-original Fender Stratocaster in original factory candy apple red and don't know how I'd feel if either of these beauts crashed to the ground, Paul!! You know now but a relative inexpensive electronic stud finder (my girlfriend keeps asking if she can borrow this device.......and giggles........I wish I understood why??!! :>) ) and having these guitar hooks anchored right into the studs makes all the difference!! Secure!! This lesson is cool because not only are you following our buddy Josh (he lived or still lives just down the road from us near Fort Lauderdale, FL and we'd go listen to his bands play often!!) but because you show us the absolute worth of careful selection of a great guitar piece and how it's worthwhile to utilize our patience plus some great electronic and other techniques to fully break them down and study carefully!! great work, buddy!! Jim C.
Oh!! Plastic anchors, Paul!! Utilize plastic anchors in your wall materials!! At first I didn't see your comment about two by fours not utilized in your neck of the European woods. Plastic anchors are nearly as effective!! Jim C.
You have been lucky with you wall Mount Paul, I keep my prize guitars in there case. Love your videos 👍🏻👍🏻
Wow, Hi Paul. I've just recently found your videos and I'm really impressed. I love that you go fast enough to really keep my interest on the piece without explaining it to death. You have the right speed for those of us who already play. Where the heck were you when I was 16 ?
Thanks so much for posting these videos, even though I feel like I am stealing from you.
Very tasty blues, bit above my pay grade though...
Just try, it might surprise you how much you can take away from just trying :)
Just go slow, you'd be surprised of what you're capable of if you slow down learn it in chunks. It's the only way to progress! I'm thankful this vid isn't too beginner-y to be honest.
This is surely within your realm. Just give it a go.
@@PaulDavids What i'm taking away is how you mix major and minor scales, and that i perhaps shouldn't expect to just improv the whole thing.. But i'm really struggling with following chord progression, and tend to just stick to playing off the key of the tune throughout the whole thing. Guess i dont know my way around the fretboard well enough yet.
josh smith is hip this is a cool lesson too
I usually don’t have the patience to do these video instructions. This one seems complicated but you made it a lot easier. Especially slowing it down and playing through it.
Great lesson, thanks for doing it!
Great lick. Thanks Paul.
Josh Smith is a killer player!🔥🎸
Never trust drywall to hold up anything important... Love this.
Thanks Paul. I've been a fan of Big Band style for years. For those of us that are Guitar players and throw in some keyboards out of necessity these licks work great too. Stellar Paul, as always. J.D.
love your videos! thanks for this!!
I can say that Paul is one of the best teachers i have ever came across!! You are an amazing player and your guitar/amp sound is fantastic!!Thank you for being a gitar master and passing your knowledge to other people. God Bless
This is great, really appreciate your hard work, just got into Josh Smith so can't wait to get stuck into this, your teaching is brilliant.
Thanks Paul it`s a wery helpful process we are been putting trooth
Its a delight visiting your channel. Keep up the good work.
With love from Assam, India
Best lesson from you so far imo... fast enough and slow enough .. two thumbs up
Thanks!
More of this kind of episode pls kind sir. Thanks in adv!
I love blues but could never play it this helped me get fell for it. Thanks so much!!
Your guitar is so beautiful I can't focus on the video!!!!
just wonderful to watch....
Thanks more than you know Paul! Very inspiring as I dive deeper into blues!
Ciao Paul. Anche alla mia età sto imparando molto da te. Ed imparo anche se nn parlo inglese, quindi spieghi benissimo. Grazie continua così..
cool arrangement.....happy holidays
Beste les ooit. Thanks paul.
Very nice lesson Paul! Delivered clearly and slow enough for viewers to watch, hear, absorb and play these tasty ideas, curtesy Josh’s cool brain. But you already know you’re teaching effectively. Thanks:)
Damn it Paul you nailed it. lush blues lick lav ur playing
One of the best youtube teachers you can get. 👏👍
Paul, I just have to love the fact that you've used Josh Smith as your golden example here. He's an amazing artist, and really so are you. Kudos - 👍👍👍👌👌
drill into the stud =/ Great vid as usual. Great to run into you at NAMM even though it was just passing by...
Paul, thanks for sharing your talent. Great lesson.
And hot beverage time. Dang, the Richards quote you hinted in the previous Blues video is still haunting me. Can't wait to watch this one with my guitar in hands ;)
Thanks, as always :)
Felt challenged to try and learn this. I think I got it and is now a regular exercise I use. I am not so good but would like to say it's more because Paul teaches very well! Inspiring indeed
Hi. Thank you for this amazing video lesson. You are a great teacher.
Great lick! Thanks for lesson! I'm just getting back into my blues game after many years of playing rock and alternative music, so your videos are a great way back in. Your videos are awesomejust ! By the way, as far as your hanging guitar, I'm a former contarctor and I will tell you that I don't hang any guitar unless I know the screws are going directly into studs! If none of your guitars are going into studs, take them down because they will all eventually fall. Mounts are only as strong as where the screws end up and drywall will eventually fail. I also never use the screws that mounts come with because when you're going into studs, you want to go as deep as possible into that stud. Even if you find a stud, a shorter screw might still dislodge after years of vibration in the house and it will send a guitar crashing down! I have some guitars hanging, but believe me, the guitars in my house that hang, are in no danger of ever falling because of screws and studs. The mount you showed, looks like it went into the dry wall only, so it was just doing what it was going to do eventually, fail! You know, I love how mount companies always advertise and describe as being "strong" but the strength of a mount has nothing to do with the mount, and everything to do with where the screws are screwed in. And, the packages don't usually recommend going into a stud! The thing is, even a cheaper mount will work a million times better than an expensive if it goes into a stud using longer screws. Sorry for the rant but falling guitars is a hot button thing for me because it's totally avoidable. By the way, I finally subscribed, so I'll be getting more content! Thanks!
The day after and I’m revisiting this lesson.
This is my favorite "Learn That Lick" so far. Thanks, Paul!
Damn, this Les paul, that's why i love gibson, colours, sound, and i love it that's all!!
Paul, that was fantastic and really really helpful! I love your theory explanations as you progress. My only complaint is that your voice is too soothing and hypnotic :). Fantastic video, please continue these mini breakdowns....sooo good. Bret
P.. Folks are blessed with certain talents. and you. Sir. Have done quite well with yours....tk's
this is the most beautiful concept you could make me really happy with: find a beautiful, 12 bar long blues solo and analyze it for us just as you did. Now I want to support you on Patreon!
yea that was seriously one of the best videos on blues ive ever seen
Man that’s the coolest lick... thanks so much for breaking this down and explaining everything so well... I’ve already tried some of the concepts in my soloing and it’s transformed my sound.. thanks again!!
