No One Else guitar lesson - Weezer - Blue Album

[@wihur]

I know that it's been 5 years, but thank you for this tutorial. I'm 17, and I just bought my first electric guitar and this is the first song I'm learning. I appreciate you a lot man.

[@ryanguitargodfrey]

@@wihur Dude I love that and you are very welcome. I make zero money from this channel because I don't have enough watch hours and it's just not big enough. I don't really put any effort into it like I should. With that said, messages like this is really why I made these videos to begin with. I just want to spread knowledge and hope to inspire new players and allow them to learn some of the stuff. I'm currently driving home from a show in which we sold out 600 tickets to and I'm kind of on a cloud. This message made my night and someone said to me a long time ago "never stop playing". I never did and I'm now 51. I play in a Pink Floyd tribute band but I'm really a metal head. Never stop playing my friend. You'll just keep getting better and better and better if you put the work in.

[@BIGREDDOG09]

Bro, you really inspired me at a moment where I was perhaps...unspirable. Thank you bro.

[@ryanguitargodfrey]

@@BIGREDDOG09 definitely the nicest thing someone has said to me all week lol. Awesome bro. I love it. Someone said to me a long time ago never put it down and I'm passing that on to you

[@oparsopar6745]

Nice sir 👍 fans weezer from indonesia

[@ryanguitargodfrey]

Awesome thank you.

[@antantantant2]

i was really struggling on the intro for this but you just explained it perfectly, thanks.

[@ryanguitargodfrey]

It's just what I hear going on when I listen to it. I think it's pretty accurate I'm glad you found it helpful.

[@sirwyattt]

I'm new to Weezer and this song stuck out to me while listening to the album for the first time. Doesn't seem too hard to play too.

[@ryanguitargodfrey]

This whole album is amazing. Such an iconic piece. Their stuff isn't too hard but it's a little harder to pull it off like they do then one would originally anticipate. The record progressions in the way they use distortion with the different instruments together create the wall of sound that you hear that comes from them which is extremely tasteful all many levels.

[@toru_dj_uk]

Thank you SO MUCH for taking the time to do this. It's absolutely perfect. All the parts too. Amazing job, really can't thank you enough.

[@a266012]

Brilliant, thank you!

[@ryanguitargodfrey]

You're totally welcome and thank you for watching my videos

[@MrUporabniskoime]

I concur , great lesson! And i like that you're commited to playing it properly and exactly. I'ma use this video a lot, thx! As far as i'm concerned, i'd apreciate the whole album :) Keep up the good work! Subscribed!

[@ryanguitargodfrey]

Dude thank you so much and it's definitely the next thing I'm going to do look out for the rest of the album in the next couple of weeks

[@sandwichyourself4481]

Just want to note that when they play their power chords with the bass starting on the 2nd string, they also fret the bottom low E String to add an extra bass note! That's how they get that chunky guitar tone besides using neck pickups and what not

[@ryanguitargodfrey]

Nice share man didn't know that!!!! Totally makes sense.

[@theIshnalaKid]

Dude, you're awesome for doing this. I've been playing along for over an hour. Super helpful

[@ryanguitargodfrey]

[@ІванКалашник-м4ц]

Sory for my english, but... Very nice, i just enjoy how you are explaining this song, that's what i needed I hope you are doing well in this weird time.

[@ryanguitargodfrey]

Man I think your English is just fine. Thank you so much for watching and glad it helped. I love sharing music with people so thank you for sharing music with me. I'm so over 2020 it's not even funny.

[@velocitygrrl]

[@ryanguitargodfrey]

Thanks for watching my videos. Awesome that you liked it.

[@everardoguido7221]

Great work!!!

[@bradwright8611]

I still have this album on cassette somewhere

[@ryanguitargodfrey]

YES💪💪💪💪

[@ChrisMedici]

Hey Man - thanks so much for doing this for your fellow Blue Album fans. And, it's definitely in Standard tuning. We owe you, Dude!

[@ryanguitargodfrey]

Man you are so welcome. I only hope these videos help someone as sometimes learning how to play stuff properly is a little tricky. So glad it helped you man I'm really appreciate you stopping and giving me the comment

[@ChrisMedici]

@@ryanguitargodfrey My goal is to learn every song on the Blue Album - this is a big step forward in achieving that goal.

[@studiovyv]

Leaving these here for me 8:16

[@leinad3955]

What guitar is that? Looks beautiful!

[@ryanguitargodfrey]

Its a 1997 Fender Stratocaster Big Apple. It's the Fat Strat of its day with the two humbuckers, but this model came with upgraded Seymour Duncan Pearly Gates pick ups from Fender. It's such a neutral guitar. Plays all styles effortlessly.

[@schonerraven1196]

AweSum!

[@ryanguitargodfrey]

You're AweSum!!!!

[@europa_bambaataa]

just for that opening sequence alone.... thanks

[@ryanguitargodfrey]

Awesome man thank you

[@isaacjuarez5505]

Thanks man, this helps. Now I just gotta master the singing and playing...you should do the world has turned next

[@ryanguitargodfrey]

I was thinking about doing the whole blue album. I'll make some more videos soon. Thanks for watching. 😎

[@brownmonkeybananayellow]

@@ryanguitargodfrey oh man I'm subsribing!

[@kless001]

Excellent!! Use any pedals for this or just the amps OD?

[@ryanguitargodfrey]

No I'm not using any special pedals for the sound. I have a line 6 vetta 2 dual cab. No joke it's as loud as my Marshall cab. However sometimes I like to sit it on top of my Marshall half stack so I can get six speakers going and rock my neighbors. I play in a Pink Floyd tribute band but I'm really a metal head at heart. I can pretty much dial up any sound from an old 60s fender to a Messaboogie distortion. Very versatile amp. I honestly don't remember the amp cab model for this video. 😎

[@eddieyun796]

Wanna say thank you 🙏

[@cornflakes2175]

Nice tutorial! Can you write out the tabs next time?

[@D3ADEYE4444]

You got to bar with the pinky or only to touch the string?

[@ryanguitargodfrey]

I'm a little confused at your question but I am definitely not barring anything with my pinky in this video so it's just to touch the string

[@alem5030]

What do you have for your amp

[@ryanguitargodfrey]

In this particular video I'm playing my old line 6 vetta 2 cab. I have a few different amps, but the distortion in this video is coming from an old line 6 vetta 2 cab.

[@alem5030]

Sorry I meant what setting you have it on because I play it with the treble and bass all the way down

[@arthurtripp1149]

Isn't it supposed to be 1/2 step down?

[@ryanguitargodfrey]

I think pretty much most of that album isn't e flat. I have mentioned that in my other videos. Am I not tuned to e-flat in this video? If I'm not it was a mistake on my part.

[@arthurtripp1149]

Ryan Guitar Godfrey im tuned eflat and it doesnt match the track or your video so maybe its supposed to be standard.

[@ryanguitargodfrey]

I do know that some of them are in E and some of them are in E flat I just can't remember which ones so I guess this is one of them that is in E. I usually do check the tuning to the song before I make the video.

[@jap6676]

I think this is the one song on the album that isn't

[@Yah_Mean]

The whole album is definitely written in E Flat
