So glad I could help support your patreon. To all those on the fence, let me tell you: supporting great teachers and artists keeps this great music alive and the value is outstanding! Seriously, give it a try.
Absolutely fantastic. More Smiths please; William it was really nothing is so challenging only you can be trusted to unlock the secrets. Both yourself and Eric Haugen are without doubt the best teachers on TH-cam.
"Getting Away With It" is an Electronic song that Johnny has refashioned so it's guitar-centric instead of synth-centric. He plays an extended break in the middle, and the song is an important part of his live show, sometimes the closer. It's kind of a simple song, but the melodic progressions of the break are beautiful, one great riff after another. P.S. I agree, "Marr's Guitars" is a classic!
Beautifully done!! As for JM tunes to do in future, how about the live version of Electronics "Getting Away With It"? It has a stunningly good outro arpeggiated section!
i really like your lessons...i don't watch them often, but they are very helpful in these noisy tracks like this one where it is harder to hear the guitar part clearly in the wash of the the band and the reverb in the recording. it's an awesome shortcut when someone has already parsed it out of the clamor...it's also great that you talk about how you make the sounds you are making.
Kudos to you for actually looking up how Marr plays this himself. I think that in the final arpeggio of the main/chorus riff there is a high C sharp played on the B string as well.
Hey this is the first time you've posted a song I already know! You play it differently than me though so I'll learn your version and see which is more comfortable for me. Keep up the great lessons!
Right on time :) I've just been watching Johnny Marr on That Pedal Show talk about "some" of his guitars. A recommended nerdy watch :) Playing like he does just flows out of him, amazing to watch ..and hear him talk about his influences, and all of his projects over the years. Right, now I better have a go at learning this, cheers
This was my latest attempt to learn a JM work and I've been navigating all the material out there just a month ago. Perfect timing for your lesson as I could'nt figure out accurately the last loose funky part.
Great lesson Adrian. I would a lesson on slow emotion replay or heartland. I would love a lesson on middle of the road by the pretenders which was played by the great Robbie McIntosh
Definitely can tell this is your favorite of your guitars. I like them all I would feel tempted to get the Marr Jaguar however. I’m currently torn both. Les Paul and Strat were stolen last month. I’m still angry but feel like starting over and not simply replacing them. So your Jazzmaster has captured my interest though. The Marr Jaguar seems to be calling me. I’m only going to be able to have one nice electric for a while so wondering what you’d advise. Last time I asked about gear I got the Fender Princeton and I’m not playing a Vix ever again. It’s a superb amp. Trying to a voice Les Paul Tele Strat as they immediately sound like classic rock radio to me. So.Marr Jag after a lot of time spent working or get a Squire and become a guitar tech which seems how to make offsets work.I don’t enjoy that stuff much though personally plus I have a job need time to write songs. Practice. Help me make a decision. I can’t. Hahaha. I’m going to tip you. I’ve been making records for years but after cancer you got me back into guitar. Hence my trust in you. You’re not the typical check out my SRV tone guy. I also have considered a Les Paul classic (love Les Pauls plus the single coil switch option which I believe he used in the studio for this song though as you said the 355 live). I do love Marrrs Les Paul but refuse to put a Bigsby on a work of art. Problem is then I just can’t play a lot of songs that feature tremolo bar flourishes. Which for my playing is an issue.
I've never really investigated the Smiths, due to being a bit too young for them at the time and finding the few famous songs I have heard of theirs a not my thing (I think I don't like Morrissey's voice). But these lessons are really making me want to get into them. I love Marr's Cribs stuff, though.
Regarding non-Smiths Johnny Marr suggestions I would like to add You And Me Baby by Kirsty MacColl and Greeting To The New Brunette by Billy Bragg. I love your work.
Amazing video brother!! I know you may be tired of requests, but could you please make a tutorial on how to play Sweet and tender hooligan, by The Smiths? That one or Handsome Devil would be great. Thank you so much!!!
You definitely make me wanna get a jazz master. I think it sounds as good or Betty for Marr then even the custom jag. Which version do you have? I’ve hear gods things about the Mascis one but I don’t think I want a high gain sound out of a jazzmaster.
Andy's bassline on this is fantastic
So glad I could help support your patreon. To all those on the fence, let me tell you: supporting great teachers and artists keeps this great music alive and the value is outstanding! Seriously, give it a try.
Plus he provides .pdf and .gp copies of the lesson and, often, backing tracks to supporters. Outstanding value added.
The only person I trust to teach Marr. Thank you for everything.

Have to wait another year now unfortunately 😢
@@pcalf101 Why's that?
Easy money is a great solo Marr song that I’d love to hear you cover
Second that. Great song!

yeah the guitar version is great
Yet another winning lesson, Andrian. To my way of thinking, your channel has the best guitar related content on TH-cam. Many thanks as always!
Yes. Just yes. Mr. Marr is a genius.
Superb. And acknowledging Andy Rourke's peerless bass line.
Can't wait to give this one a go. Was lucky enough to see them do this live when I was only fifteen and it was absolutely epic.
Beautifully done!! As for JM tunes to do in future, how about the live version of Electronics "Getting Away With It"? It has a stunningly good outro arpeggiated section!
Johnny's breakdown on that live is GENIUS.
My favorite riff by him, that change into the verse riff is soooooo goood

The peeps are going to love this one 👍👍👍👍
Yes, start up a bass guitar channel!👏😀
This is the song that finally got me into the smiths.
Thanks very much for the lesson!
"Barbaric" tutorials always begin at this channel. Pristine work on an all time fave. Congrats!
I think you’re the first person who nails the fills to this one-thank you!
pls do (nothing but) flowers! lovely guitar parts by Johnny
Ah yeah, I second that.
Kudos to you for actually looking up how Marr plays this himself. I think that in the final arpeggio of the main/chorus riff there is a high C sharp played on the B string as well.
Fantastic. You really can’t do too many of these. Cracking song
Thank you

Welp, I know what I'm going to be doing all weekend: trying my hardest to get this Marr riff down! Super excited! Many thanks for this one!
Thanxalot Adrian! Unexpectedly, I could really hear clear reflections of “Le Freak” in the funky part!
Love, love, love this channel.
Learning this track was a watershed moment for me - gonna have to give it a refresher now. Thanks
A channel dedicated to bass guitar would great Adrian.great video as always.best guitar channel on TH-cam by a country mile!
Hi Adrian, would be awesome if you looked at We Share The Same Skies by The Cribs - fantastic Marr riff.
Thanks for another great lesson.
Oh yeah, the incredible Johnny Marr!👍
absolute legend
YESS I WAS WAITING FOR THIS! I think I messaged you on facebook asking if you could cover this one!!!!
Awesome version mate
Great tune, thank you! Johnny Marr requests: Spiral Cities, Little King, Upstarts, Getting Away With It, Dashboard
Ahhhh! It's that time again!!!
Pls do some The The when you can. Great job as always!
Thanks for the gear share as well! Pls keep doing that!
Superb as always Adrian
FINALLY someone who has it right.
Amazing! Was waiting for this one
Sounds amazing
Ah yes… been a while since your last Smiths lesson! As usual… spot on👍🏽👍🏽
I would love a tutorial for “we’ve got everything “ by Modest Mouse. Excellent lesson as always, The Smiths never disappoints, thank you!
excellent as always
Smart! Love it!
Thank you!
Freaking awesome!!
10:30 is a riff that drove me nuts trying to figure out! Believe he plays the 335 on this. At least live he did,
Fantastic!
New Town Velocity would be wonderful
I agree!
Always appreciate the songs that you play. That Jazzmaster could do with a double string tree. Tightens up the sound.
Great lesson Adrian. I would a lesson on slow emotion replay or heartland. I would love a lesson on middle of the road by the pretenders which was played by the great Robbie McIntosh
Brilliant thanks

Nice! How about some more J Mascis - like off of the Tied to a star album?
For a non-smiths Marr track, Slow Emotion Replay by The The would be an awesome tutorial.
Great lesson Adrian. Regarding Johnny Marr solo material, please consider covering 'The Messenger.' Thank you.
Greetings to the New Brunette (Shirley) by Billy Bragg. I would love to see you show how Marr played the guitar on that one
Regarding non-Smiths Johnny Marr suggestions I would like to add You And Me Baby by Kirsty MacColl and Greeting To The New Brunette by Billy Bragg. I love your work.
Outstanding lesson yet again,how about an MC-5 in tribute to the late great Wayne kramer.
Love your lessons. Any chance of doing a Blockheads one in the future? Preferably, Razzle in my pocket.
You are really great... Thinking about what Johnny Marr song (playing the guitar) I would like you to show...
Amazing video brother!! I know you may be tired of requests, but could you please make a tutorial on how to play Sweet and tender hooligan, by The Smiths? That one or Handsome Devil would be great. Thank you so much!!!
I'd love to hear what you'd get from Armageddon days are her by The The !
You really need to put up a video with The The’s period Marr.
Have you covered Jonny Greenwood? Bought a jag just to cover that tonality J. Marr.
Tighten Up by Electronic please
Could you do you've got everything now by the smiths?
You definitely make me wanna get a jazz master. I think it sounds as good or Betty for Marr then even the custom jag. Which version do you have? I’ve hear gods things about the Mascis one but I don’t think I want a high gain sound out of a jazzmaster.
I always come back to Adrian...
Been following you for years. Great work as usual.
Would you be able to cover some of Radiohead stuff too ?
New town velocity please
Thankyou, brilliant, 👏.
Like deployed 👍
😎🎙🎸✅️
Can you do Children of the Revolution by Kirsty MacColl or Slow Emotion Replay by The The?
Unruly Boys
Who will not grow up,
Must be taken in hand
Unruly girls
Who will not settle down
Must be taken in hand
Never mind Johnny Marr - more Vini Reilly please!
This that compression setting good for most smiths stuff? Low attack
THE SMITHS👍
New Town Velocity would be a good non-Smiths lesson idea.
I also have a jazzmaster with rouge whammy bar 😂
Supposedly, if you hit it with a hammer just right, you can get it to stay. But I don't dare.
My request would be Nothing But Flowers by Talking Heads.
What amp and pedals did you use to get that sound?
I keep expecting it to turn into "Don't Dream It's Over" with that E chord and the rhythm.
Your thumbnail reminds me of Pavements Slanted and Enchanted
💖💖💖🙏💖💖💖
Awesome tune and lesson, even though this was really Andy Rourkes song to be fair. Rip.
Hi hello please
One of my least favorite Smiths songs, but never realized guitar part was so cool. But it’s Marr, so no surprise.
Please do Paint A Vulgar Picture 👋
Anyone Can Play Guitar
Just not as good as him!😏
