How To Play Runaway Jim by Phish • Josh Pearson

Here's my rundown on Phish's Runaway Jim, a great song with a fairly simple chord progression but some intermediate strumming technique. Great song to solo over using D Mixolydian. Learn to play like Trey Anastasio! Thanks for watching!

Love the lessons! Keep it up. Maybe a lesson from Gamehendge next to horror NYE!

[@JoshPearson]

Thanks Ryan! Some of those Gamehendge tunes are challenging! I need to learn some of them. Been wanting to learn Tela...

[@JoeEngineersThings]

This is so good, they’re all just so good. It blows me away. If you’re up for a request - I’ve never been able to figure out the climb in Jibboo.

[@JoshPearson]

Thanks Joe! I'll see about getting Jibboo up soon!

[@krapart]

great lesson! thanks!

[@JoshPearson]

thanks for watching KrapArt!

Would love to see a video on how you dial in your helix for Trey tones.

[@JoshPearson]

I've got a few Trey presets for sale with my latest being my take on his 2023 tone. They're available at joshpearson.org/merch. Also, there's a 30min video of me discussing that 2023 helix preset, kzbin.info/www/bejne/fKXPqqKNYq14h5Ysi=qTZ9Rp0CeucHZxLb. Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@PHAN226]

Great instruction as always. Thanks Josh!

[@JoshPearson]

Thanks so much George! Appreciate you watching them!

[@davidjbennett]

This is another great one, thanks Josh!

[@JoshPearson]

Thanks David! Appreciate the kind comments!

[@Burgletrouser]

Thanks! Awesome as always.

[@JoshPearson]

Thanks Josh!

Always great man. Let’s get that Foam jam lesson going! Would love to get your take on it.

[@JoshPearson]

Haha, I'm gonna have to look at Foam, not too familiar with that one though I should be, song is so good! Thanks for the kind comments. I'll get on it!

[@michaelhamini1409]

Thanks. I could never get the rhythm right, but the way you showed the muted chord really helps.

[@JoshPearson]

Good to hear! It's a very unique rhythm and it seems like Trey alters it a lot. Thanks for watching!

[@bsdwiz]

@@JoshPearson I have a hard time replicating. Would love to have a lesson specific to the strum/muting technique. Or perhaps you've already covered in another vid? Good stuff!

[@JoshPearson]

@@bsdwiz the beginning of this video is the most I've discussed that strum with the percussive click. I'll see about doing a lesson on just the strum / palm mute / click. It's a tricky one. I remember spending hours back in 1995, watching the 1994 Halloween video of them playing Sparkle, doing everything I could to figure how in the world he was strumming like that with that click, clever fella:). kzbin.info/www/bejne/moa1lmxrqql9f5Y

[@TK-fk4po]

Your tone sounds great for a simple home recording. What are you playing though?

[@JoshPearson]

Thanks TK! Guitar into Line 6 Helix into Ableton. The Helix sounds great, especially for recording.

[@MrMcprodigy]

i knoowww you rider

[@JoshPearson]

Totally! Have a mash up called Runaway Rider that Touch of Trey has played only once. It's challenging to merge them with the slightly different tempos / drumbeats, but I dug it:).

[@coastercook]

Thanks, Josh
