Computer Blue Part 1 - Prince Guitar Tutorial

[@Imokyourok440]

When that song sounds like it’s over, then the bass kicks in is the coolest groove ever! So happy to see you highlight this song.

[@inspectorbudget]

I used to try to do that chromatic riff with that bend you're doing. It's the biggest mind fuck he ever pulled on me. He's not bending at all, strictly playing a chromatic pattern that sounds just like bending.

[@mgardner70]

Who would give this a thumbs down? This is a fantastic tutorial!

[@thejaseguitar]

You can't please everyone! :)

[@freewheelingit]

Price really ate it up. 💜 thank you for this tutorial!

[@inspectorbudget]

Yah, that main riff doesn't just sit on that Eb. It also has the Db chord involved.

[@swirlingfudge]

Yeah

[@Imokyourok440]

I always played it with an E flat 7#9 Hendrix chord, then Dflat major chord. I’m an idiot, so don’t take anything I say too serious. It does sound cool with the Hendrix chord though. Love your tutorial!!

I just can't even believe that this is a thing. I remember mid-80s driving around town with my girlfriend. We both locked Prince but for some reason I always gravitated to this one. And I made her just suffer through while I was a jamming to the guitar solo. For whatever reason and I'm not a rocker best part of the song just hit me hard. So I guess I was a rocker back then when I understood what was the best guitar piece ever played. Who would have thought that

[@commonsense102]

I'm sorry I'm female okay I'm not a guy that's an idiot I'm just a girl that's an idiot who loves Prince

[@ajsmith4181]

This is incredible! Thank you so much, great teaching. I'm so looking forward to Part 2! I'm ready for that great solo! Thanks again-

[@ajsmith4181]

Also, can I ask what kind of distortion pedal you're using?? Love your tone-

[@thejaseguitar]

+Andrew Arthur Cheers. Gonna sit down and work out the next bit soon. Been getting lots of requests recently so trying to get through as many as possible :)

[@thejaseguitar]

+Andrew Arthur actually I'm going through a small Line 6 amp using its built in effects. Live I would probably play it through my Fender valve amp and a Supa Tonebender Fuzz. The Seymour Duncan pickups also help get a good tone.:)

[@ajsmith4181]

Awesome!! Thanks so much for the info- much appreciated. I have subscribed!

[@commonsense102]

[@old97sdoreen]

Thank you so much for these videos. My head is literally spinning from all the goodies! Not sure if this is the place to do so, but I'd love to see your lesson on Question of U, Pink Cashmere and Joy in Repetition. Also, although too ambitious for a lesson, I'd enjoy watching your take on the greatest guitar solo of Prince's career -- Just My Imagination from Small Club show. I am very appreciative of your Prince lessons. These mean the world to me.

[@thejaseguitar]

+Sh nes Thanks. Have lots of requests to try and get through at the mo but will add these to my list :)

[@thejaseguitar]

Here you go... kzbin.info/www/bejne/bnevqXyYnJWHerc

[@NicoDeMalcur]

Is this all picked or are you doing hammer-ons/ pull-offs? Thanks mate

[@thejaseguitar]

I'm picking all the notes in the riff and the lick. And you're welcome :)

[@blueskky9996]

In a raw form yes./perfection requires more listening to the original song. You are close but missing sooo much.....2 make it musical..... its not memorizing frets/notation/phrasing... its about making music,, but this is an instructional video so kudos!!

[@clarissawilliams18]
