[@stuartangel8212]

This is by leaps and bounds the best double stop lesson on the web.

[@BrianRowsell]

Best country guitar teacher, hands down...

[@JasonLoughlinMusic]

Man, Thanks Brian. I hope you're doing good man

[@judwatkins9478]

You haven't "annoyed" me yet, Jason. I think your country licks are 100% gold! I will always come back to your channel for that instruction.

[@KCOOKSMUSIC]

I’m a churchjazz/R&B 🐱 and you are the only dude that has broken down this technique with double stops so simple that it has to make sense.

672 views, 672 guitarist/musicians who benefited. This is wonderful video.

[@slimeylimey]

Thx Jason. Always stuffed full of great ideas. 👍🎸

[@jamiethesubtledeceiver1585]

THankyou so much for this video, im a shred guitarists and have been trying to wrap my head around country ideas - this video is great because it shows the process of coming up with the licks - not just licks! Theres not many vids out there that ive seen that lays it out like this. Awesome, thanks man!!!

[@stelliumeleven2889]

Totally right! this is the principles instead of the methods. I've been waiting for a video like this!

Thank you so much and best wishes from 🇩🇪 Ansbach Germany 💖🎸 Sammy West

Wow what a great lesson! ❤

[@Wermode]

Fantastic. I'll be working on this for quite awhile. Excellent way to build the technique brick by brick. See you in The Speakeasy, Jason.

[@stelliumeleven2889]

This video has been awesome! I've been looking for a way of understanding the principles behind country playing, and a practical approach to practicing it.

The UA stuff is great. You teach it in the simplest of terms. Confirming the stuff I already knew as well as showing me some new tips! 👍🏻

[@JasonLoughlinMusic]

Thanks Jeremy!

[@timaddison707]

great insight, seen a lot of chicken picking lessons but this one definitely different approach. Keep up the good work. Double stops are a key part of that country sound!

Thank you!

Great tone

[@jeffro.]

Good stuff. I'll work on it! There's a LOT of stuff in here. Gonna take a little bit of time to practice and get used to playing this way. I really like the percussive muted notes.

Sounds great Jason, what kind of camera are you using? its very clear. Thanks

I never do that tucking-the-pick thing, I have enough to keep me busy as it is

[@JasonLoughlinMusic]

I don't really either but Brian Setzer does all the time...

[@tedadlington1777]

Hello Jason. Thanks for your great post. But I wish you could teach me how to get your brilliant tone. I have been playing tele for years but I have never got that tone

[@JasonLoughlinMusic]

Always available to set up a lesson to show you how to get the most out of what you have. Shoot me an email

[@guitarpicker6844]

Love your pickin! And that tone is sought after (by me!) What amp/set up are you using? Again man, you're great!

[@JasonLoughlinMusic]

For the live YT I'm using a UA amp modeler because it's way more simple and clear for streaming. It's sounds ok here..not great. I've since dialed it in to sound closer to a fender amp. Also quieter for NYC apartment life. Live and on records I mostly use old Fender amps

[@guitarpicker6844]

@@JasonLoughlinMusic hey thanks for the response, and it sounds great when I Bluetooth it onto the automobile stereo. Love it man.

When speaking about 'Travis picking ' i would mention Mother Maybelle Carter...

[@JasonLoughlinMusic]

She doesn't travis pick though.

[@peterdvideos]

I’ve played guitar for 60 years. I don’t know what a double stop is. Nobody talked about them then. And I still don’t know what they are.

[@JasonLoughlinMusic]

It's fiddle term and it just means playing two notes at the same time.

[@chaz72987]

I was wrecking my brain as to why G Mixolydian worked over a A# Major chord but then I realized C Major is G Mixolydian and A# Major would basically be like playing C Mixolydian just not playing the C and playing the b7 Major instead. You're basically playing the 4 chord as 1 chord but not playing the 4 chord root and playing a b7 instead, it's works because it's also borrowing from the relative minor.

[@JasonLoughlinMusic]

I'm not doing any of those things. For each chord I use a corresponding major pentatonic on mixolydian scale. The only universal scale I'll use over this is G min pentatonic or a G blues. Hope that helps

[@blackhawks3310]

At 16:40 you remind us to think in terms of G mixolydian and not B flat….so we just think if G mixolydian with the B note flatted, but all the other notes of G mixolydian stay the same? Is that correct? Or is there another way to say it or a deeper explanation.

[@JasonLoughlinMusic]

G mixolydian is your tonality(the color of the world you're choosing to live in) and the main highway in which you travel from one note to the next. The B flat is an approach note to the third or by landing on it and give impression of the blues scale and a new tonality.

[@blackhawks3310]

@@JasonLoughlinMusic I get what your saying in your response above. But at the 16:40mark you were talking about this in reference to when we are playing over the B flat chord (which is not in the G major/mixolydian chord scale) and not just as a passing tone. and you said when we are practicing these double stops over the Bb chord we should continue to use the E note from the G mixolydian mode/scale and not the Eb note that would normally be in the Bb major scale cause the E note sounds better…. Did I get that part correct? My difficulty is that I just got used to playing the double stops from the CAGED A shape and G shapes, but then when I go to the Bb chord around the 3 fret and start doing double stops the way you explain, I have to remember that for this particular chord in our chord progression I can’t just follow the regular caged A and G chord shape patterns I learned, but I have to account for keeping the E note in the shape instead of the Eb note…..that kind of screws me up lol If I am even understanding this correctly,…it’s no fault of yours! I appreciate your help

[@blackhawks3310]

@@JasonLoughlinMusic I forgot to say, Merry Christmas!

[@JasonLoughlinMusic]

@@blackhawks3310 Ahhh sorry I misunderstood your question. Ok, yes..we are in G mixolydian but there's something called modal borrowing. This is where you steal a chord from any other G tonality(G major, G minor, G harmonic minor...). When I do this I only change the notes of the mixolydian scale I need to to fit over the chord I'm playing over. So the B goes to Bb since Bb is part of the Bb chord. E is not so no need to change it.

[@blackhawks3310]

@@JasonLoughlinMusic thanks for your response Jason! I understand your explanation of modal borrowing and it rings a bell because I think I read about that before. I will definitely look deeper into it!
