After many years, this is still one of the best tutorials on the song. Thank you!

[@FateStaySaged]

I gotta say man, religiously humming a 12 bar blues to myself for months really made guitar click for me. It made a lot of content on KZbin way more accessible. You rock man!

[@timwilliams3512]

[@CalPlaysGuitar]

thank you for your tutorial

[@alexprice4229]

Closest match to the tone of a white stripes song than any tutorial on KZbin. No one can make that solo sound the same though

[@stephenchadwick5852]

Cheers fella 🤘Steve Manchester UK

[@Nergal_Slayer]

Thank you so GODDAMN MUCH!

[@garethananins4670]

Great vid thanks

[@EarlofBaltimore]

Nice tutorial. Well presented and played. Nice guitar too, by the looks of it. Is that a Yamaha 1802?

[@SlightyStuupid]

Thank nice job, this is my first song attempt... I lied I tried your tutorial on I fought piranhas but was too hard. I’ll get it eventually!

[@CalPlaysGuitar]

Thanks! Keep at it!

[@911aDay]

Can you share your gear please? Great video BTW awesome quality and sound!

[@tomm1413]

Hey Cal! What kind of effects are you using? Can't really seem to figure it out 😅

[@dianamotta_astrologia]

Hi!!! What pedal distortion are you using?? Thanks a lot

[@floziofer95]

Hey great lesson dude! could you also do a guitar lesson about the style of Jack White playing his solos ? greetz

[@CalPlaysGuitar]

FloZiOfer Official his technique is actually really simple. He just uses a whammy pedal (digitech to be exact) to raise the pitch of his guitar. that's how he gets those screaming solos

[@ribeirovolantes7773]

could you do a mastodon cover lesson?

[@zingleraster9124]

Is the solo a mix of the G minor and A minor pentatonic scales?

[@stephenteague4353]

Jimmy the exploder would be great to learn??!!! Can’t find a decent tutorial anywhere!! ….. hint hint!! 😜

[@floziofer95]

Please do a lesson on "Hello operator" by The White Stripes :D

[@CalPlaysGuitar]

FloZiOfer Official I'll see what I can do :D

[@floziofer95]

CalPlaysGuitar would be great !

[@CalPlaysGuitar]

FloZiOfer Official Just posted it enjoy!

[@sergiocardozo2875]

How about your amp settings?

[@noahtunbridge7378]

What kind of guitar, amp, and pedals should I use to get it to sound as much as the original as possible?

[@CalPlaysGuitar]

+Noah Tunbridge jack uses a big muff by pi pedal and a vintage Kay acoustic electric. You can achieve his sound a variety of ways but thats where I would start looking :D

[@kuskus5842]

CalPlaysGuitar You forgot about big part of his sound: Whammy IV

[@TheLAXERt]

Love your channel and would love to see some red hot chili peppers!

[@darrendanger6853]

Tell me about that guitar, what is it?!!

[@mrzoonix6368]

What fuzz are you using?

[@misthraldaydove7315]

Sincerly, this one sounds better than the original song :D

[@buckeyee3]

Thats fucking ridiculous. You did a great job youtube guy, but dont disrespect Jack like that.

[@AshnikkoFans]

The Kills tabs please🤧

[@josephgerstner]

What kind of guitar is that?

[@CalPlaysGuitar]

Yamaha SG

[@sergiocardozo2875]

And the lick?

[@Varendel07]

My B string dont make the same song

[@silverwolf5583]

[@cerisejones8061]

[@yermum319]

[@CalPlaysGuitar]

+yer mum Its a Yamaha SG1820. Great guitar!

[@yermum319]

+CalPlaysGuitar thanks

[@MrDoug527]

nothing like the song, nice try though

[@romandurant5309]

so you can do better right??

[@gav8558]

you're allowed to criticize something even if you can't do it better

[@arutzuki2491]

Roman Durant He probably can play it better. This is very different from the song.

[@romandurant5309]

but its the best lesson for this song on you tube

[@rtxf]

Arutzuki if you think there is a better than the other guy who wrote it you sir, are no musician.
