[@joeyracano1]

Dead 60 years and still the songs mesmerize.

[@PaliGap1]

Yes, 54 years gone and still unmatched.

[@trevorgwelch7412]

Jimi's lyrics were just as GENIUS as his guitar playing . Often overlooked . Great Lessons .

Excellent work

[@matthewj1987mj]

YES! Been waiting on a decent tutorial of this!

[@Liberty1977]

Dude, I'm pretty new to finding your channel but it is great. Thanks for the lessons!

[@12footchain]

Welcome!

[@johnw4659]

Awesome. Thank you!

[@shanebrbich5698]

Thanks mate! Great work. That plexi sounds awesome. It just sits right where it needs to be. 👍🇦🇺

[@chrismanko2134]

Amazing lesson! And the tone that you got sounds just like Hendrix! Better than any video, I've seen on KZbin! Keep them coming, please!

[@slateowen3108]

This came out just when I’m discovering this song, it’s great to be able to play along!!!

[@goldenboy8167]

Holy cow, you have a lefty guitar upside down! That's dedication. I've been wanting to learn this song, I'll take this as a sign to learn it. Thanks!

[@pizzipaul1]

Dude... this literally would have been my next request! Thank You!

[@johndodson4527]

Wow.hendrix lives.

[@johntiger5]

Fantastic dialog , lesson and sounds. I'm Pac N.W. now. By way of New York and Michigan. Beale St. in Memphis, and Printers Alley in Nasheville in Tenn. are awesome places too, as you already know. Billy Cox said Hendrix use to walk around there with a guitar in his hands. Talk about a gunslinging guitarist.. You are right in the middle of it now. Peace.

[@stlflyguy]

Very cool. I do have to say the best cover of this I’ve ever heard was by The Spin Doctors.

[@markdesod561]

Well WORTH the Wait!!! Thanx Doug!!!!!

[@Black_Hat_Music]

Thanks for this one !!! 🎩🎩🎩

[@thepirhomancer9745]

Never enough Jimi!! 👍

[@rocketman0515]

Rippin’ it!

[@reddottx]

Looking at the notes I’m not quite getting what pedals/settings you’re using for the opening. Seems like more than boost and reverb.

[@12footchain]

Well the amp normal volume channel is on 9, using freyette attenuator for volume control. So there's a good amount of overdrive from the amp

[@timbuckxxi9690]

That's pretty much the same way I figured it out...Cheers !

[@Nuker54]

Sounds a little Jimmy Page-ish. Great tune!

[@sterlingmcvay2469]

I'm going to have to get Another LEFTY STRAT, as I want to Play in Eb, anyway.... , ( like we need an excuse to buy another Guitar )😊

[@teachmeguitar4149]

What are the chances you could ever do a video lesson on Led Zeppelin The Rover. The resource videos out there aren't the quality you put into it it apart from a few covering just the solo.

[@12footchain]

Chances are 100%

[@teachmeguitar4149]

@@12footchain I honestly didn't even expect a response! You have my word I'll be the first in your tip jar when that comes out. This kind of made my day. My wife told me calm down its just a KZbin video when I just told her about it. Greatly appreciated sir. You don't even know

[@ThomasNorthener]

You play so awesome 😊 don't you have some tracks of your own or where you play with a band or something? If so where can it be heard? Thanks for a great channel!

[@12footchain]

thank you. You know, I don't really, this is the only musical outlet for me at the moment, kinda all I have time for. But I will at some point.

[@Nuker54]

Love your work- just curious - where did the “12 foot chain” moniker come from?

[@12footchain]

It's a metaphor for breaking self imposed limitations. I talk about it more at the end of the very first video I did. Search 12footchain CCR guitar video and it's the one from 3 years ago

[@thomasdiamond5089]

Jimi was pre Page

[@waynegram8907]

What is the chord called when you use the thumb 4-4-3-4-X-X?

[@12footchain]

C#7 with a G# on bottom. Best I can do on that. I'm no music theory expert. Someone may correct me

[@waynegram8907]

@@12footchain C#7/G# is a Slash chord which G# is the 5th chord tone of the C# chord. Hendrix started to use Slash Chords and also started using "alternative bass notes" for the bass lines for the bass player the alternative bass notes. Really listen to the bass players bass lines because that aren't the root note of the chord a lot of times to make lessons about them.

[@thecentralscrutinizerr]

This song reminds me of why I never got into Jimi Hendrix. I'd rather listen to Chet Atkins, Jerry Reed, James Burton, Roy Clark and a whole host of others that were alive when Jimi was alive and would absolutely smoke him on guitar. You may not like that, you may not agree with that. I understand that, but I'll bet you that upside down guitar that they could play everything Jimi played but he could not play everything they played. Don't get me wrong, Jimi was a beautiful soul, and he could play. But he never impressed me like the foregoing did. For instance, Chet Atkins could play "Yankee Doodle Dandy" and "Dixie" on the guitar at the same time. And if you've never heard Jerry Reed's "Jerry's Breakdown", then you certainly wouldn't understand.

[@12footchain]

I agree they were tremendous players, they could smoke anyone on guitar. But I like them all for what they all separately did. For me it doesn't mean I can't love and appreciate Jimi's music if I love and am in awe of Chet and Jerry.

[@BeatlesCentricUniverse]

@thecentralscrutinizerr "They could play everything Jimi played but he could not play everything they played." What a clueless comment. It's NOT about technique. All older guitarists like 12 foot chain (and myself) know Reed, Atkins, Burton and Clark and the songs you mentioned. YOU "certainly" DON'T understand🤣

[@pizzipaul1]

Ya know if you were really good you’d play it left handed…haha
