Seventy years old and I have taken countless guitar lessons and still can't play to save my life but I still play for my own enjoyment from time to time. Over the years I have learned many things but never one song in its entirety, by the time I learn it I am done with ever hearing it again but love just fooling around with sounds and positions and skills. I have to say I enjoy your videos and your compassion and knowledge and it gives me more directions I can go to improve my ear and listening powers. I may never play to the public again but it gives me a wonderful time for myself when I do play and try to learn new techniques you have learned so quickly in your life. In short, I am trying to say thank you for sharing your knowledge so unselfishly you are one of the few that deserve to be called a professional teacher.

[@GuitarPilgrim]

What a lovely comment! I am happy to help!

[@sapelesteve]

Great comment & I totally and absolutely agree! Couldn't have said it any better!

[@trevorgwelch7412]

Keep up the playing and give us a video . Cheers . ✨✨✨🎸✨✨✨🏆🇺🇸🇨🇦🇫🇴

[@theverseshed]

78, going on 79, and I share your pain.

[@donk9132]

Got cha brother…….75 here and relate to what you say !!

[@philipchaplin116]

You're such a fine guitarist. I think you could just about play anything you wanted to, & always to an impeccable standard. Never a sloppy note or pick. Your vids are always very enjoyable.

[@jw_au]

Well said 👍

[@douglaschristine8387]

Hi Pilgrim, I love that dark color and the grain on that telecaster, never seen one like it, very special and a nice idea for a video.

[@cmusicjourney]

This is pure “craft distilate”. I wish YT had a “show me this everyday” feature. There’s so much inspiration here. Thank you so much, man. Big big fan

[@dekerivers5798]

Great that you included Scotty Moore - he often gets overlooked.

[@jeffrowlette]

You are an amazing musician! I didn't say just an amazing guitarist, I said amazing musician.

[@pepmasters-999]

The Scotty approach is the most musical, and consequently sounds the most beautiful. Hendrix's tricks sound the coolest though.

[@skpince]

No shredding on this channel. Another reason to subscribe and follow. Not to mention the soulful playing. Well done, as usual. Keep up the good work. Deeply appreciated.

[@doubled5383]

Huge bang for the buck in an 11:35m video. Wow thank you.

[@Bodrick_G]

You're a muse my guy, you speak through the guitar and you speak it well

[@TheQuietRiot]

I've been stuck on your hendrix rhythm video for the last week, picking up bits I love and trying to perfect them. This video is perfect for what I need next. Thank you

[@ozboomer_au]

Some great ideas.. as usual 😀 Fave bit of dynamics for BB King is in the last minute or two of 'The Thrill Is Gone' at Montreux in 1993... There's a long period of very quiet playing.. he hits a couple of harder notes.. his trademark 'spike' and slide... and then he stands and rips into it... That is really goosebumps f'me... 🤩

[@DQSoft]

Your point about dynamics gave me a new insight into my current favorite guitar player, Ronnie Earl.

[@douglaschristine8387]

5150 at the end there Pilgrim, so many good players including you, thanks 👍

[@gitaaa7740]

Awesome love your outro riff! EVH RIP!

[@sapelesteve]

That was just terrific Thom! Your grasp of how other guitarist play is truly amazing! Hope that all is well with you & your family! Thanks....

[@bertvaneeden8336]

Alweer een top demonstratie en een waardevolle schat aan onmiskenbare gitaar loopjes. heerlijk Tele geluid ook! Dankjewel Thom

[@jarce9032]

Thanks a ton Thom. To hear the different styles from the masters (played by another master....) is simply amazing. It really brought home how different players approach their playing. So humbling, yet so very inspiring. Peace.

[@Soulmanbsr]

All your videos are amazing!! Thanks!!! you make me grab my guitar everytime you upload one!

[@musicman2621]

the greatest Guitar Teacher on KZbin.

[@wernermoser3406]

😅

[@TheRycooder]

ALWAYS one of the best channels....

[@tmatheson54]

Every time I watch and listen to you I get motivated. You are fantastic at demonstrating the greats. At the end of the day just play the guitar with feeling. You are smooth at nailing it!

[@jlunde35]

I just love the tone of that Telecaster. Great video.

[@f.i.l.d.e.p.s]

i agree by far when it comes to the most who changed the way we look at the fretboard. jimi hendrix. his blueprint in playing licks combining the scale and chords to come up with the melody. no one ever thought about that until he came and changed guitar playing forever.

[@DavidBiddle]

This is just excellent in so many ways. Thanks. Just the perfect amount of info and demonstration.

[@christopherbrightman-white1961]

Great video. Keep em coming

[@jameschurch5574]

Great Lesson ! Thank you !

[@floriansilzle8334]

[@gitaaa7740]

Great tips Thom. Thank you for posting

[@jro4513]

Another incredible video. Love your channel always and your passion for music. Great cover of the song 5150 at the end.

[@SFCB1954]

Simply the very best guitar channel on KZbin!

[@Tonybuckets]

Great video! Between all these licks and tricks its damn near the entire encyclopedia of guitar techniques from the 60's and 70's

[@johnfarr2780]

Really useful content as always, thanks for another great video

[@nicolasmaurin182]

Great. As always

[@rosco1pug]

Your observation about the genius (my word) of BB King's dynamics is so well made. Buddy Whittington is a fine, long established rock and blues player who is also a master of dynamics, and for mine is deserving of much more attention.

[@christopheoconnor4251]

Wonderful playing and always something for us to learn !

[@440club]

Love the tips! What a beautiful guitar you have there as well!

[@tolga7244]

such a beautiful tele!

[@BorostateBlues]

Super interesting stuff and a fresh take and well packaged, good job man

[@MaxRadin]

Any lesson that starts with Mick Taylor has got to be good!

[@silvanonaretto]

Thank you!

[@freevadzajnyVotavson]

Eddie Hazel, Michael 'kid funkadelic' Hampton, Hubert Sumlin ❤

[@rjb7569]

Excellent! Easy to follow with your examples. And that Tele has a cranking sound.

[@thomaskila3801]

I never fail to learn something from your lessons. Now this lesson? Well, I've learned numerous somethings. Thank you, GP!

[@neilgaydon5430]

Thank you, as always...inspirational player...inspirational lessons

[@boyharmon357]

Thank you, for the great lesson , it's refreshing to have more than one approach to playing thank you . So pleased to see the other great guitarist by the name of Moore being mentioned, Elvis would be pleased.

[@jteichma]

What a great idea bucket! So many great tips. Thanks!❤

[@georgekiapos1]

Nice video, thank you🙏

[@chriswrighton5162]

A great guitar demystifying video!

[@giorgiop9535]

[@PaulSinnema]

Cool, I used many of the riffs you play but never really understood where they came from. Love it. Keep practicing 🙂

[@ericsimonnet-ip2om]

Amazing video and great guitar ! Thanks a lot ! It really helped me. Love this Stevie Ray Vaughan trick 😊

[@lennonptpaul]

This is brilliant.

[@mnaicck]

That's a beauty guitar. And it sounds wonderful. Good for you!

[@manuelfernandez8739]

Genial, buenos licks para tomar prestados de genios que han aportado tanto a la música. Gracias maestro, me encanta cómo lo explicas ; - )

[@GuitarTimeWithBillyC]

Double stops just sound cool! Great video as usual!

[@ThorRavnsborg]

Wonderful lesson. Btw. that Paoletti is gorgeous.

[@Roscoe1279]

Interesting and good! 👍

[@user-vh8gg1zh7o]

That Mick Taylor lick is the beginning of Hideaway by Albert King.

[@dustdevilz4771]

Great!

[@bullifan1300]

[@edtroost8298]

Gewoon weer top. Je hebt die gitaar gehouden dus. Wat een top ding.

[@MustafaBaabad]

[@alfiehenshall688]

That guitar shure sounds nice 👍🎸

[@detlevpomp]

Großartig!👏👍🎸🎶👊

[@KingTabor]

great video! and best part at 11:09 🤘

[@stevenmeger3798]

Great lesson of practical tips and soulful playing, thank you for sharing! Any advice on how you get your outrageous guitar tone would also be greatly appreciated.

[@bkmeahan]

Everyone says SRV was influenced by Albert King, but you can hear a lot of Buddy Guy in his sound too.

[@strat0871]

Great, I would add some Johnny guitar Watson's famous funky tricks !

[@Chappomusic]

Owww a Top Ten - what are your thoughts on Freddy King , Jeff Beck , Ritchie Blackmore, Mike Okdfield & Leslie West? .. Anyway : it’s always a joy to hear and listen to your explanation . Your kids are playing air guitar as well?

[@generaleclectic5677]

waou I love that guitar!

[@eclecticwhyzass]

It HAS to be fun to be you! Because it is greatly entertaining and inspiring to watch/listen to you. And to think guitar is just One of your great talents! Stay Well Groovy One!

[@NoahfromEarth]

I think I’m in love with your guitar a lil bit..

[@bluehorizon76lca]

Nice to see you!!

[@cozmickid80]

Hello! You are such a monster player and so versatile. I love your videos. I always marvel at the fluidity of your strumming hand, and notice how you hold the pick is different than others. Would you ever consider doing a video on your strumming style? I would really appreciate that inside look. Cheers.

[@GuitarPilgrim]

Good idea, i'll think about it

[@docwill184]

Damn, Leo Fender got it right fitst time out. Telecaster is most versatile guitar out there; simplicity with infinite electronics permutations.

[@vspaulding1]

Very Nice:)

[@tonypurcell1049]

So obvious when you point it out.... great video as always!

[@aminahmed2220]

What a fantastic video have a good weekend ❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊😊

[@Taco_Raider]

That's a sweet guitar, man

[@richat1691]

Jimi page plays a solo in 'the weight' with jack white and the edge. No demos on it on here - love to see your take on it

[@MrBBaron]

I have enjoyed so many of your videos and have learned from them. What brand of guitar are you using? It looks really nice

[@tonoselectricos]

Great unicorn!!!.💪🏽😎👍🏽🖤🖤

[@DreHolzer]

Amazing sound as usual! What about that Paoletti??

[@pablobracco9856]

I love your Telecaster 🤤

[@danig77]

Wow nice telecaster body!

[@jcivantos]

If you ever want to sell that Paoletti I’m your guy. It’s stunning. Visually and sonically. I contacted them after I saw your vid and they just don’t have any others w that beautiful wood grain.

[@arpitsave1089]

Thom, Pl do a similar lesson focused on rhythm guitar tricks!

[@giulioluzzardi7632]

Scotty and Wes.

[@rudiyantohalim736]

That's a really pretty guitar

[@wilbertmurry6570]

Good sounds and information. What’s the make and model of your guitar?

[@64north20west]

As great as this video was, it is pretty jaw dropping that you fade out into one of Eddie Van Halen's most difficult intro riffs. I hope there is more to come.

[@davebeck4288]

How easy we forget "The Green God" You have Clapton, Mick Taylor who played with John Mayall but who he considered the best, the founder of Fleetwood Mac: Peter Green. Peter was the one true Brittish guitarist who did not have to copy the American blues he was able to emulate but add to the blues playing from his pain see "Then Play On CD" or "Need your love. Soon Bad". You disappoint!
