[@robertadam3238]

Thx Ben, great lesson. Helps me a lot forward. Please do more ...

[@BenK.]

Glad to hear that! Any Suggestions?

[@robertadam3238]

@@BenK. Can just speak for me: to learn licks is 1 thing - practicing. But to combine them is the tricky bit - maybe this could be a theme for a lesson? Or the fine bits of bluesy sound (e.g. bendings: bend notes at the end instead from beginning on) ...

[@jjiacobucci]

Excellent lesson. Thank you

[@CHDave336]

Good job continue fronm Switzerland 😅

[@BenK.]

Thx man! :)

[@darioscomicschool1111]

YEAHHHHH!

[@niguel4438]

Excellent thank you. Clapton makes a very distinctive sound on acoustic. Obviously he's playing through an amp (do you know which make and model) and also a pick-up. Again make and model? It would be fun to try and replicate this unique sound. Once again, many thanks.

[@BenK.]

Man that is a good question! I believe the Eric Clapton Model has got an LR Baggs Pick Up, but into what PreAmp that goes I guess we will never know...I heard the Avalon U5 is awesome, at least that is what John Mayer is using. I don't think it goes into an Amp...

Wow! Great solo at the end, also wanted to learn that one

[@BenK.]

I‘m glad you liked that! :)

[@lgp4960]

First, thank you for the content! Secondly, are you using software/app to slow down the video? If so, would you share the name of the software or app? It appears not to distort the audio quality. Thanks again.

[@BenK.]

Hey man, thx you so much! I actually just use the slow down function(fir fast sections atleast) here in KZbin and then transcribe it with GuitarPro

[@Joa_DB]

Great video but you can improve even more by fixing your audio settings or getting new equipment 🙏

[@BenK.]

Thx you, yea I am working on it 👍🏻

[@AnkitSingh-vx4dy]

Wonderful tutorial. Why you have 3k subscribers only ?

[@BenK.]

Haha, thx you Ankit! :) don’t Know…i Hope that changes at some point x)

[@claudiabaumann1166]

Guter Unterricht, aber warum beweisen, wie schnell die licks.... Clapton spielt das auf eine coole relaxte Bluesart

[@boudewijngroenhuijzen8786]

First off all : very good lesson Bro ! But....I'm sorry to say but I don't understand your way of writing down these musical lines. For example I am pretty sure that in the first bar of the first turnaround you show us you start playing on beat two of a 4/4-bar but you don't write a quarter-rest. That's confusing. Bar two is suddenly a 6/8-bar, Why? In the other parts you write down there are lots of identical uncertainties and notation-problems. I guess you play it and let your notation-app does the layout of the notes in the bars? I think you have to check if it is clear for the reader. If I were you I would choose for 4/4-bars with shuffle/triplet/jazz/swing-interpretation. You know what I mean..This criticism is not to offend you because you are playing the stuff so exellent ! Keep up the good work.

[@BenK.]

Hmm weird, I normally always listen back to make sure it does sound coherent/like the original. My advice though: play with your eyes and not with your eyes, that is much more important. No offence taken! Thx you for watching the video :)
