I truly believe you would've been a better choice for the Dead and Company instead of JM. Thank you for the lesson and tips, both are truly appreciated.

Thank you for this. My blues/minor playing was always missing something and never knew how to get that Jerry style in there. Just jammed to a JGB show and boom there it is.

I believe the SG is the only Gibson model that’s never been discontinued.

So smooth with it

This is a great lesson! Thank you

What concert is the solo you teach on?

Shave and a Haircut finish FTW!

This just blew my mind

Merry Christmas, and thanks for all of your generosity! Hope you all have a great new year.

I’ve watched that intro so many times. Amazing playing.

Merry Christmas and best wishes for a happy, healthy 2025 to you and your family, Jack!

Merry Christmas!

Great lesson!

Merry Christmas to you and yours , learned lots from you this year and I thank you good sir

Clean AF

You are a super cool, extremely talented and humble dude. Thanks for spelling it out for us mere mortals!

Around 20:00 when you're going through the "Bob" sounds I had to chuckle when I think about the ridiculous incomprehensible sounds he's using now.

Could not agree more on the Dead eras. I'm 90% 1971-1978...and the other 10% is mostly '70 & '71 haha. You are far from alone 😊.

Your playing and teaching methods are spot on. Thanks for this channel!

Great job Jack

This is awesome Jack. For that blended overdrive sound, do you use a pedal sim or another amp blended?

I always wondered what that is over the treble side middle pickup screw? Sticker?

Thanks for this, Jack. I really appreciate your taking time to go through all the nuance around sound (string to pup to amp, and beyond). This is helpful when I'm trying to put my sound together using my own, very different, gear. Happy holidays!

Oh man thanks!

Per usual...completely badass. Gracias Senor!

I had one of these for 2 weeks and returned it. I found it unplayable because the pickups are too close to the strings. And since there are three pickups, you're constantly bouncing the off of them. I have a Gibson and a Strat that I do not have to alter my playing style in order to use

Good morning, love your stuff , very helpful, thank you

Sometime can you talk about the basic signal chain for a clean Jerry tone? Clean amp, reverb, some delay, some TSish boost or something?

I have one mine is awesome I run it with a Marshall JTM -20 and a custom shop fulltone ocd and a fulltone ranger pedal nuff said … great guitar

Great lesson. I found this version by Doc Watson, who I cut my teeth on 50 years ago: kzbin.info/www/bejne/h5zMpJmYqbSGpJosi=5QZa6aR4LF2q251n

The first 2 minutes you are flowing something fierce on that

Jesus Jack that intro playing was absolutely amazing. you are fantastic

Indeed another JSX masterclass Already knew the tune but you've 🤯 🎸 🎶 🪐 ☄️ blown my mind with this lesson, rendition

One was… the other two were swimming and came home with bagels and Lox!

They were sleeping

Great lesson, thanks!

Splung, grungga, boooinnng, grogga grogga oh yes whopping massive innit?!

throw that thang on do not disturb jackie boy

Solo at around 12 mins 🤌🏻

Always appreciate your content Jack!

Jack do not leave us! We need you to keep these amazing lessons ! Thank you so much.

Glad I came back to this after work! Great stuff Jack! This will keep me busy for awhile.

This is great, but it's pretty much entirely focused on the early, more straightforward stuff. Have you done any videos on the more outside, octatonic, nightmare acid trip, meltdown, style stuff? No one I can find on KZbin has really offered an analysis of Phish's sort of extended, reextended, extended some more, resolution trick. It is an incredible tool, and despite Phish being well known, Ive never heard anyone do it nearly as well as they do (for reference, Chalkdust Torture, NYE 1995 solo is probably the best example, by them, or anyone)....nor the Dead's version of it, which is slower, and more about shifting through different modes in a very strategic way. And sure...diminished over the 5 chord is more or less a fair summary of "the Phish Trick," but in reality its far more sophisticated than that. If you can shed some light on these devices, Im sure many people would be Grateful. I know this already long, but speaking of Phish, I recently stumbled on to a transcription, and realized that much of trey's apparently sophisticated playing, is actually simple, and incredibly sloppy; it's the bass and ESPECIALLY the keys that frame it in a context that gives the impresson that Trey is playing far weirder and more sophisticated stuff than he actually is. Anyways...really appreciate this channel. But yeah...I get the feeling you are capable of sophisticated analysis of some of the weirder stuff these guys do. If so, and you really dont want to post it, I may be forced to pay for a lesson.

This sounds really nice, just wondering what pedal are you using for overdrive on this. Thanks

He wrote The Other also, a song they couldn’t even pull off every night

Very well done! Thank you👏👏👏

Thank you Jack! Very bluegrass-y eh?

Whenever I look for a dead tutorial I always search the song name followed by jacksnax because I know you probably have it!!! This was great!

at 5:47 "that's one, six five"?? cant mean fingers, cant mean frets or strings ... notes in the A major scale maybe , but dont know why you would describe what you are doing in that way when so much easier and direct to say what string/fret

Nice work man. A guy you should check out is Scott Murawski from Max Creek. Local player we all grew up admiring as young musicians. There’s tons of their shows on any of the Archive apps like Relisten, Taper’s Section etc. But check out the video on here from the Gathering of the Vibes, songs like Jones and Windows. Their singing is a bit of an acquired taste lol, but they write killer songs, and Scott is just nasty.
