As a beginner, this lesson (and its part 1companion) really cleared a lot of music theory fog for me, as well as giving me some fun new ways to drive my neighbors crazy. I really appreciate your teaching style, very rigorous but not tedious. Thanks to you from Kansas.

Hello Adrian, this two part lesson, covering every conceivable power chord formulation known to mankind, is the best compilation that I have ever seen! I have watched it several times, from beginning to end, and it is absolutely the best work on the subject that I have ever found.. You are like mild mannered Clark Kent, or Peter Parker, who is ready to spring into action, as either Superman or Spider-Man, in order to save all of us mere mortal guitarists everywhere, from a life without the strength of a full understanding of Power Chords!! Thank You for your incredible talent, and ability to share your knowledge with all of us, in a very simple and easy to understand presentation! The final stroke of genius was the demonstration of the 'Worlds Most Dangerous Power Chord '!! Simply Amazing!! Thank you so very much, the world is now a much better place, for everyone!! Lary

The “Eric Johnson” shape could also have a ringing open note added when playing certain chords. Doubling a root or fifth bass note on a different gauge string. This really rings out, adds texture and accents that note.

Here i thought i knew about power chords. And then we start with the inversions and Eric Johnson fingerings. More tools for the toolbox. They force me to improve my muting, and I have a feeling committing these "alternates" to muscle memory is going to help ground my soloing in the chord i'm soloing over.

How is it that the D5 power cord on the 5th fret isn't an a minor? its the same shape
@peerblickdicht84012 жыл бұрын
leaving out the note that determines major or minor (the third) is what makes it a power chord. A power chord is just the root (the not that gives the chord the name) & the fifth. Sure, if you repeat the root on the 4th string it will look like an e-minor shaped barre chord, but you are only playing strings 6,5 & 4. The third that makes the difference between the e minor & major shapes/chords would be played on the 3rd string.

Great Job Adrian. Ive been playing for many years but im teaching my 12 yr old daughter. Your show helped us out alot. Ive rarely taught people so getting tips and seeing how you basically run a class type was impressive. Keep up the good job. I love your gear as well. Dont see many Vox guitars here in the US. Awsome amplifiers too. Cheers
