Jesus Just Left Chicago - Guitar Lesson - ZZ Top

[@michaelmerrullo2043]

This is the most comprehensive digestible lesson on this solo I’ve seen anywhere. Great breakdown!

[@Beatles123ful]

Great lesson like how you got right into it with no bullshit

[@LEADSOLO]

I hear that. I know what you mean on typical KZbin videos....

[@0LASE]

Man, you're the best teacher I never had.

[@baynesstreetblues]

Thanks - this is a great transcription and demo of a Revd Gibbons classic. You’ve captured all his bends and nuances. Very authentic.

[@michaelmerrullo2043]

I never thought of sus-ing the C chord in the first position. I’ve always gone up and played that hinge bar on 5 to 7th fret. Cool!

[@neilkorsgaard]

Thank you so much. This is gold! So much cool technique packed in this lesson!

[@LEADSOLO]

Glad it was helpful!

[@robertogonzo541]

This lesson made me pick up my guitar again thank you🤯

[@mattc.883]

Nothing like having a 13 minute video interrupted 3 times for commercials. Anyhow amazing lesson sir!! Thank you 🙏🏻

[@thetruthisoutthere8598]

Thanks! I like the optional position. I learned it with the A string dropped to a G

[@crowhaven200]

Happy new Year Tom! Thanks for all you do here.

[@LEADSOLO]

Same to you!! Happy New year!

[@LookinUp2001]

Good job on a great tune. Thxs!

[@bobrome6549]

Great breakdown - thanks so much!

[@moose6676]

I like this guy 👍🏻. Thanks

[@LOFIGSD]

Cool was looking for a breakdown of this, reminds me playing Ride On by AC/DC

[@dmartin1955]

Thought so too

[@clintesterbrook9833]

Excellent job !

[@nicksmithworld]

This is superb.

[@edwinwise6751]

The top should list the studio people as band members

[@phillipzappel9491]

Jeebuz just l e f t Chicago . Welcome in guitarverse

[@clintesterbrook9833]

Excellent!

[@mrmastermanifester]

Thank you so much 🤘🤘🤘

[@alfonzosbreakfast914]

Very good thanks

[@BrooksShepherd]

Nice job breaking it down!

[@dnews9519]

If you had a British accent I would have believed this was Keith Richards giving me a lesson. This is superbly sloppy I love it!

[@wcountyrednecks]

thanks brother

[@richardsong8]

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! in triplets!!!

[@MirurImage]

Pretty sure the album rhythm is recorded in open G. Glad to see the standard tuning version though.

[@LEADSOLO]

Funny you say that because I thought the same thing but didn't think people wanted to tune for that or it was that big of a deal. But then after a while I felt I had to show that version too so I did. You can see it here. kzbin.info/www/bejne/sGLZXpWMlLusmdk

[@daveh9923]

thanks for that......

[@johnnyjohnson2942]

Great vid. On the A to C there is no walk strait A to C.

[@jono4708]

Another killer video thanks and Happy New year. But dude! Where's the SG!

[@LEADSOLO]

Depends on the song... The SG is still around for sure!

[@scotthalladay2210]

Is that slightly like the Jack by AC/DC too

[@keyscook]

Thanks so very much...your style of teaching really suits me as a piano man in my 50's - calling out the notes really is helping to learn the fretboard. Cheers from Seattle! I noticed that you don't anchor your picking pinky... Is that the best way to go?

[@LEADSOLO]

I never gave a seconds worth of thought to what my picking hand pinky is doing. I would say whatever comes natural for you is the best way ☺️

[@DSilvergun]

Always assumed the guitar was tuned to Open G.

[@bozire]

Nice teaching. Question if you see this post- what pickups in each position? Thnx

[@LEADSOLO]

I don't remember but I'm pretty sure it would be the two or four position...ie the bridge and middle pickup together or the neck and middle pickup together. I almost never use one single coil when you get such a nice strat sound with the two.

[@damito1000]

Hi! What effect the guitarr used???

[@LEADSOLO]

[@omarmunozcastorena4466]

Youre tone is amazing, the ppl disliking this is because they have a shitty tone, lol

[@westdeaton4127]

E standard??

[@LEADSOLO]

Yes in this version. I have another where I drop the a string down to g. If you're not sure about the tuning just play along. After you get as close as you can in tune with my guitar, it will become obvious if there's any open tuning. When I figure out songs by ear that is how I determine it.

[@yrulooknatme]

santa bring you a strat?

[@LEADSOLO]

No I had it....

[@CraigDAllen-sr2zb]

Great lesson. I would suggest sitting for lessons so you don't move the guitar around so much. I'm getting seasick.

[@LEADSOLO]

Thanks for the tip!

[@WildBillQRO]

WTF

[@INSANITYPAIN-jjlecter]

wishi washi not realy clear
