I'm fascinated by J's playing. He claims he knows no music theory and that he just picked up the guitar and taught himself when he couldn't find anyone to play in DJ. Other than a few choird shape conventions that he picked up, his playing is unique. I really love listening to him, especially his solo work. If you ever decide to delve deeper into his approach, I'd be very interested.
Thanks Adrian, great stuff; I’ll give it a crack. I’ve seen J solo and Dinosaur Jnr as a full band and both have been top notch gigs. He’s a brilliant guitarist and your lesson pays him great respect. Cheers, Phill
Love your taste in music! Would you please do an lesson on “Out There” by Dinosaur jr. The solo for “What Else Is New” would be amazingly awesome too. Big Fan, thanks for all the great lessons.
Thank you, Adrian! One of my favorite songs by Dinosaur Jr . The riff still challenges me strongly and yet - it's really cool. Thanks a lot for this precise tutorial.
Lovely. Yet again you’ve picked an unexpected song I like. Time to drag the pedal board out. I have an old green Sovtek Big Muff. Incredible sounding thing but I don’t use it as much as I used to. Love it though.
Thanks again for another great lesson! I have loved J's playing for years so it's been great to take some time to look at a track. Be very grateful if you could look at Start Choppin one day? Take care.
Well done, as always. Looking forward to ripping this tune when I get home later, although my Strat will have to suffice. Echoing others below....starting to develop a hunger for a Jazzmaster....GAS never stops....it just pauses on occasion.
Greetings and salutations from San Jose, California. Well someone beat me to the compliment but man, are you going through my album/cassette collection for these song ideas (Joy Division, Public Image, Stooges)??? LOL You've done all of my fave bands, you are a "brother from another mother".........I LOVE THESE LESSONS and your song choices!! Just wanted to send along some KUDOS, I'm a new subscriber and I've been trying to tell anyone who'll listen to me to get on your channel. Oh and AWESOME Jazzmaster guitar!!! I had finally stopped buying guitars but now.........I'll need one just for this lesson. :O)
Very thorough video. Thanks! Loved the peek at the pedal chain as well. I was wondering what you were using while the Big Muff seemed to be off, and now I know. Cheers!
Great lesson, going to be slaving for hours and hours to learn that solo now.. is that a pedal train classic jr you have at the end? I’m looking at getting one:) thanks
Nah man. To really nail the sound you'll want a setup like he uses in the video, but any distortion pedal or amp distortion will get you close enough to play it and sound ok.
He started using alternate tunings now. I know "goin' down" is not standard on the last dino album and if I remember correctly one or two tracks on his last solo album. And he drops the Low E to D on a couple tracks too. and a LOT of songs with capos of course!
my brain cannot proccess what notes your hitting fast enough to replicate it in the solo... i know you said going note by note might be boring.. but im having a hard time getting the gist of sort of the middle part of the solo
My promise to you is I will stop requesting songs, because you keep covering great songs that I really want to learn. No need for me to interfere with this process. You post, I'll keep checking them out.
Adrian, your Jazzmaster has vintage frets and 7,25 radius neck? Is it not a little difficult for bends? I have a jazzmaster avri 62, and I dont know if change frets for medium jumbo, what do you think about?
Thanks Adrian. I have been waiting for some Dinosaur Jr. ever since I have seen your Jazzmaster. Did you try it through the Fender amp? Also J most likely doesn't think in terms of scales. But he sure does know his way around a fret board. I think he likes to use a Rangefinder treble boost for his solos. His pedal board is always changing. The Cramps and Dinosaur Jr have been big hits lately. Would love to see more Dinosaur Jr. I know the Cure is a little cliche, but I would love to see your take on In Between Days. Keep rocking. Thanks for the help. I actually have the J Mascis signature Squire. Fun to play. Great to learn on. And the bridge doesn't have to be swapped. 😝
Hi Adrian love your choice of song's and guitars, I have 2 questions. I have just bought a original series jazzmaster with 65 vintage pickups I love the guitar but the pups are very bright almost ear piecing at times, you have to roll the tone off, are yours the same ? 2 I also have a 52 reissue, have you had the modern wiring kit done on yours ? Mine is as I bought it and sounds dull and lifeless, to the point I never play it. How about song from under the floorboards by magazine !!
I liked the video and it helped me learn everything but the solo. You didn't really explain how to do the solo like at all and it feels like you tried to rush through it
That tone is so ridiculously accurate
How did she get it like that??
@@MoneyBagD855lol nicca

He was trained by Ron Asherton, he even knows every stooges song by heart and how to play them perfectly
Yaay, some J..
Love to see a longer lesson on his soloing style..
Your song choices are spot on. Thanks..

Big Fan, thanks for all the great lessons.
Yayyyyyy. At last, someone as thorough as you taking on some j mascis. Thanks a million! More!!
Please do Start Choppin’
Thank you
Thank you for this. Best lesson I have seen of this song!!!
simply amazing!!! This is the most accurate lesson I've seen of this song!!!
no way you cut it short in the beginning!!! i was loving it! hahaha great playing man!
I love Dinosaur Jr! Going to see them for the first time since 1989 soon! I really like this song, and I appreciate this lesson. Thanks.
Been a Patreon subscriber for years. PLEASE do more Dino JR with solos. Not enough people dissecting his playing
Thank you, Adrian! One of my favorite songs by Dinosaur Jr . The riff still challenges me strongly and yet - it's really cool. Thanks a lot for this precise tutorial.
dude I love vox....and I love muffs. and I love your pedals....you rock and thank you for teaching me songs.....I love J.!
Did you ever played something from teenage Fanclub? Would love to see you playing The Concept
The best band of the fucking world
Thanks Adrian! This is my favorite Dinosaur Jr. song. I think you’ve just chosen my next project for me!
Lovely. Yet again you’ve picked an unexpected song I like. Time to drag the pedal board out. I have an old green Sovtek Big Muff. Incredible sounding thing but I don’t use it as much as I used to. Love it though.
Shiiiiit i want to learn how to play the guitar now... By the way your song selection for tutorials is just awesome. You really have an awesome taste.
This sounds awesome, I gotta learn this song now
Love Dinosaur Jr. and this song as well. Great choice mate.
You’re right - this album should be up there, almost, with “Where You Been”. Fantastic songs.
Yeah, I was about to say, I didn't think this was a bad album at all, back then and especially now looking back on it.
Thanks for the lesson. A really great Dinosaur Jr song.
That second to last note bend in the solo just does something to my face - each and every time 😜😎🤟
Woah! I love the recent posts! Keep it up man :)
STAYTREM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! we met J and hung out for a while... what a great Dude!!!!!!!!!!!!
excellent lesson and song choice as always, thanx man!
Loving the way you just nonchalantly get up after smashing that.., 🤙🏼
Wow!!!! You have the best song choices , thanks mate!
Right got me through some hard times amen brother
Thanks again for another great lesson! I have loved J's playing for years so it's been great to take some time to look at a track. Be very grateful if you could look at Start Choppin one day? Take care.
You nailed it, as usual. Now I see I was playing it wrong for years...
Thank you very much for all the great lessons and for inspiring people!
Thanks for the video. You are a good teacher.
Great ! ! you also appreciate Jay Mascis !
Outstanding playing. Another vote for Start Chopin’ here, please.
You and your lessons are fun.
Well done, as always. Looking forward to ripping this tune when I get home later, although my Strat will have to suffice. Echoing others below....starting to develop a hunger for a Jazzmaster....GAS never stops....it just pauses on occasion.
Could you do a tutorial on leaders of men by joy division please that would be great (by the way great tutorial as always!)

agreed, this guy's got a great taste in music!
NICE - what a Friday lesson! Donating
BEEN WAITING FOR LESSONS FOR THEM THANK YOU!! More please?
Super grateful for your work here 😊 Would’ve loved to be in a band with you.
Very thorough video. Thanks! Loved the peek at the pedal chain as well. I was wondering what you were using while the Big Muff seemed to be off, and now I know. Cheers!
Great work Adrian!
It feels like it's time for a new DJ video...what do you say Adrian?
Oh, and how about some Pavement?
no one plays pavement stuff it sucks :/
That JM is amazing. Is it the original 60’s line from a few years ago?
Small clone, Rat, must be a Nirvana fan (or had been one at some point)! 👍 Nice work on this one. It’s on the list to learn.
Thank you for this. Subscribed here and on your Patreon.
Oh I gotta learn this! heck yes!!
i dislike solo's as a general rule.. but this one is so dope i have to learn to play it... good video
Beautiful jazzmaster bro
Thanks for the video! Love this tune ❤️
I don't know if I should practice more or just throw my guitars away. Haha. Great lesson!
One of my favourites.
Amazing tutorial, thank you!
Can you tell me roughly what settings you're using on your amp before add the big muff please
Could you please do a lesson breaking down his parts on "Pick Me Up"
The Wagon, please!
Yea more Dino Jr!!!
May I ask which amplifier you‘re using to play this song?
great, thanks Adrian!
Nailed it
What a legend...
Great lesson, going to be slaving for hours and hours to learn that solo now.. is that a pedal train classic jr you have at the end? I’m looking at getting one:) thanks
Yo, mate, try with the muff on during the verse, then add a decibel volume boost to drive the muff during the chorus... but sounds ace as is!
Thanks so much for the help.
15:22 Gotta practice this part!
Pls do one of these on "Be A Part" from Give a Glimpse of What Yer Not
Is a big muff compulsory? I want to get started straightaway
Nah man. To really nail the sound you'll want a setup like he uses in the video, but any distortion pedal or amp distortion will get you close enough to play it and sound ok.
Sorry, I was just being juvenile
Thank u for doing this one. U rawk!
J's last killler tune! You know he never uses alternate tuning, everything std. Another Dino Jr classic as a suggestion is 'the lung' or 'get me'
Watch the Corners uses the capo in like the 9th fret, though
He started using alternate tunings now. I know "goin' down" is not standard on the last dino album and if I remember correctly one or two tracks on his last solo album. And he drops the Low E to D on a couple tracks too. and a LOT of songs with capos of course!

Really underrated band

AMAZING LESSON - I can't believe I can finally play this song after all these years (minus the solo haha)
more dinosaur jr please!
Hi A could you have a look the Punk / New Wave Band Penetration ?
Top tune!
More dino !!
Wow, thank you!
17:10
Legend!
Great!!!
Luv ya man! Awesome! Mascis is god!
Thanks m8!
Love me some Dino Jr

Real nice
J Macis is the number one!!!
Please do what else is new
Only a fool wouldn’t like to learn a little Dinosaur Jr. right now.👍🏻
I liked the video and it helped me learn everything but the solo. You didn't really explain how to do the solo like at all and it feels like you tried to rush through it
KILLER
J uses an AC-15 a lot in the studio so you’re good here without a Marshall stack
