This Simple Angus Young Pentatonic Hack! Is Amazing!

[@RobertBakerGuitar]

Wednesdays need a little more Rock n Roll amirite?

Shut up and kiss me

Can you do somthing like that for Slash

[@brownsfan7753]

Yes!

[@RokDAWG1]

I would think that Tuesdays need the rockin and rollin' more.

[@livingabovethe12th]

Malcolm and Angus, the 2 best rock gtr teachers ever. Get the high voltage record, learn to play rythym with Mal in the left speaker, then learn to play lead with Ang in the right speaker. No joke, that's exactly how I learned. Mal's right hand, so tight and groovy and such attack..so percussive. You should do a video on how important it is to be able to lock it down like Mal before one gets flashy.

[@joansnakepit7929]

Malcom was the glue of the band, man was always so tight amazing rhythm!

[@licksnkicks1166]

@@joansnakepit7929 I agree 100%. I just loved him even more when I saw them live! OMG the best show I have ever been to. Their 2015 tour in Canada. Downsview Ontario.

[@marygaleac]

A Cherry SG... Nothing more beautiful on Gods good earth.. And nothing sounds better!!! Thanks Robert.👍

[@PlectrumShorts]

Billy Gibbons does the same thing in the first bar or two of the La Grange solo. Such an awesome sound.

[@barrybebenek8691]

Whether folks like the playing or think it’s too “simple”, Angus and Malcom were my teachers too, from the first (Australian High Voltage) album through to today. They mastered simplicity and created real music. 🇨🇦👍🏼

[@dapawaz8310]

Amen. I've never seen anyone who claims it's simple to be able to replicate it. 🤣

[@allengoeddey2719]

Working on an AC/DC song last night. Thanks! The finger rolling thing is prevalent in ‘Whole lotta Rosie

[@Johnsalad]

lOVE the red SG!

[@coltenbustos7114]

This is what I needed on lunch break. Bosses screwed stuff up and left it for me to fix. Thanks for making it a little better robert!

[@joshuamirabal822]

Glad to see you kept the SG. It looks and sounds gorgeous!

[@lfdimb]

Great guitarist with extreme good taste and perfect teaching skills to contemplate all levels of musicians. I'm your fan and I don't miss any of your videos! Greetings from Brazil!

[@Squishy_Seal]

Angus is my favourite guitarist ! Everybody saying he plays simple haha yeah... it s basic but simple ? Nah. It os so hypnotizing anf impressive wjat he does, it is really great I m so in love with his sound !! Thanks for that lesson ! Great sound, beautiful SG.

[@bw5308]

Was just listening to Whole Lotta Rosie when I got Meister Robert's notification. Of course I'm gonna check it out! Been wanting to delve into more Angus techniques, also Malcolm. One of the most rocking bands ever.

[@TheStarAndTheDespot]

No one plays the blues better than Angus and no one explains it better than you. Thanks!

[@wesleyalan9179]

Right on! I kno what im doing when I get off work, JAMMIN'!

[@dinourbani4068]

Amazing video. Thank you for posting this. Angus is in a class by himself. So much feel and tone and incredible vibrato. Could you produce a video like this about Billy Gibbons? thanks man.

[@lucasbittar]

Awesome tips, Robert! Those subtle details makes a huge difference. Like you said, makes you not play the scale in order anymore, giving it a total new sound and feel. Thanks man! Cheers from Brazil!

[@ssolo8]

A "tame" distortion makes for a great tone. 😉👍

[@SCgrad98]

Thank you for doing an Angus licks video! He's my favorite guitarist and main inspiration for playing guitar.

[@AndyDion]

The finger roll! Great tip and licks Robert!

[@samuelebenini25]

I think you are real true in your video and funny and that cause we enjoy they so much (and for talent of course) thanks from Italy 😊👍

[@stratwrassler]

Best lesson for that bit from the Shook Me solo I've found, thanks.

[@arunviswanathan5555]

Great lesson RB! Love the rolling technique! Thanks for all of your videos! You’ve got chops brother!

[@loveguitars]

Hey Robert, I would like to say you are a awesome teacher and more important and awesome person Thank you for everything!!😎👍💗

I know this is a late comment, but I’ve been looking for a video that explains the pattern of that first lick for months! This explains very well. Gained a subscriber, well done!

[@tmitz73]

Terrific Video Robert!! Real clear and simple but powerful, just like Angus!!! Stay Well Dude and Keep on Rockin'!!

[@Rustyjamesman]

That 2nd lick sounds so good

[@martinlicht1969]

Thanks man. You can roll in opposite direction across strings too for fun creating those neat intervals.

[@image30p]

This is an overlooked technique. It really adds flavor. I think if a person can use this and throw in some notes from the major pentatonic or maybe a minor sixth here and there. Iommi does this stuff too. It's so tasty! Thanks for the great tutorial!

[@epiphone278]

Damn Robert, really dig your lessons, they are so much more practical and so much better explained than a lot of the other guys videos out there. Keep it up man, great stuff!

[@oldmanpatriot1490]

Thats a beautiful guitar.. I miss having a SG.. Shook me was the first full solo I ever learned how to play back in 1984-ish.. Boy,, Im old...

[@sugatooth]

Love this!!! Gonna jam out with this later 🤘🏽

[@JeromyBranch]

You have really nice vibrato Robert. Couldn't agree more about Angus. Every time I have a student I make sure they know - It doesn't need to be DIFFICULT, to be GOOD. It just needs to be played well. Angus is a perfect example, and if you want difficult, well he can supply that need as well!

[@wllmstck]

This is so true. I'm just starting to learn, but when you see Angus's riffs written on tabs you realize he keeps it really simple. Yet still a challenge even for their simplicity.

[@Rollermanfromspace]

Good to know I've been playing the YSMANL solo wrong all this time haha. Learned more than I thought I would in this video! Keep up the great stuff man

[@nostro1001]

Angus said...it's much easier to play like him if you have an Aussie accent. It's the only way to get the authentic tone!

[@batmaniac66]

BRAVO! Thanks for share.

[@aaronrichards2051]

damn, I love SGs

[@vinvin1909]

Great lesson! 👏

[@markattaway4429]

He does all of those little tricks because he has tiny baby hands! That gives him that unique sound, because he’s having to compensate, such as the rolling stuff you mentioned.

[@bryanmannoia8410]

not at all. he is emulating the blues he grew up listening to. tons of finger roll techniques in the blues.

[@AntarcticGuitarEnthusiast]

New sub here from Tim's place. Nice to see that Marshall JMP-1 pre-amp. I played over 10k 1hr shows in a classic rock show band and it carried the load. It also recorded really well. Nice room, my cell is too small. More power to you. I also watched your "I'm not touring" video, give it a thumbs-up, I just couldn't find the right words. Kind Regards, 👍 🙏 Maximum Respect, and Peace ~ LW 👊 😎

Robert, thanks for this video, Angus is the King of Blues Based Rock, Could you do a deal on Gary Rossington, that would be great, I love your Channel, Rock On, Cousin Figel

[@BlueTitan7]

I like you man, like how you talk, your attitude. I love Angus, it is and it isn't his style...it's a legacy. Angus studies Chuck, Chuck studies Rosetta, Rosetta studies the tin can/out of tune instruments blues of the cotton picking slaves. All those people add a bit, Angus puts the rock attitude into the blues thing...to my ears it is the same. I saw Chuck 20 years ago, he was playing loud and distorted ( natural break up) and it sounded like Angus. There you go the bridge was build from both ends! Keep it up! PS: Just named a few, you got the Wolves, Kings, Johnsons, etc famous or not guys in the mix!

[@DaringDan]

this is really well explained. solid work, homie

And what about Malcolm tricks? :D You could use one of that affordable Gretsch Duo Jet guitars (G5222) to show us some rythm tricks :D

[@Terribleguitarist89]

Malcolm's rythym is what made their songs IMHO.

[@BMitchell]

Killer lesson man. Is the reverb coming from the collider? I just recently got one and its awesome. Keep Rockin Robert, I really enjoy your videos. 🤘

[@jaminpartanen9058]

Awesome lesson. I play some of his solos and didn’t even realize that was the technique while I was learning it. How come you don’t do any slash tips and tricks?? Angus and slash two is my MOST favorites

[@kengevers8738]

Nice tone on the axe!😀

[@mariotorres1181]

The first lick sounds like the start of strairway to heaven solo jaja thanks for this man

[@alexanderbrown4250]

Billy Gibbons does the finger rolling thing in his solos, as in La grange.

[@therangersinger]

Your reverbs are always ace

[@chriscampbell9191]

Cool. That first 'jumped' pentatonic riff played here, I just heard / learnt from a 1972 ZZ Top audio vid where Billy Gibbons used it -- amongst a gazillion other cool riffs. Gibbons added a note, though, right at the end. But the riff is otherwise the same.

[@rover256]

Hey man thx for the video this really helps me progress further with guitar

Great vid lesson bro thx! ur great!

Is that finger roll (B in this lesson) similar to what Page uses on Over the Hill and Far Away?

[@bryanmannoia8410]

yes. a great technique used throughout the blues as well. excellent lesson and great examples. the solo in YSMANL is an excellent example of how to use the whole fretboard with minor pentatonic.
