Hello all good people.
We're going to do some more Hendrix because rhythmically I think he's one of my favorites.
And since you can't teach Van Halen on YouTube it makes me really sad.
So we'll teach my second favorite rhythm guy.
Actually they're about time.
Alright so we're going to start off with an A as in the other Hendrix lesson, the little
wing lesson I gave.
The thumb is back.
So we're going to start off, you hit the chord, the A chord.
[A] [F#]
So you mute down and [A#m] upstroke and [F#]
drag your finger down.
And then you're going to go to the E major.
[E]
E, D.
And then you're going to go with your thumb.
[F#]
[E] [F#m] So that's an F [A] sharp minor chord.
[F#]
[F#m]
So that's on the G and the B.
[A]
Hammer on and pull off, let the B ring.
[Am] And then you're going to go [F#]
second fret, second fret of D and G and hammer on to the fourth,
letting the G ring open.
[F#m]
[E] So we got
[F#] [F#m]
[B] [D]
[A] [F#m] [A#]
that seventh fret.
[Dm] [A]
[F#m] [N] Hammering on to the ninth fret of the D string, keeping the seventh fret of the [D] G open.
And then just the same thing up a set of strings so now it's the A and the D.
[F] [E]
[F#] [F#m] [Dm]
[A]
Then you're going to grab [F#] the A note with your thumb and grab the bottom B and [F#m] E strings.
[A]
So you're [F#m] going to hammer on.
[F#]
Same kind of deal where you're hammering on the top string letting the bottom string ring [A] out.
[E]
[F#] [F#m]
Same thing as you did in the [F#] beginning.
Now we're going to go [D] back to the D chord and go.
[A]
So that's D.
[C#] [A]
[F#] Moving that down one fret, the bass note, to [D] C sharp.
[C#] [F#m]
This time you're not pulling off, you're just hammering on.
Actually you do on this one, sorry.
On the D and the G.
[F#]
[D] [A] [F#m]
[A]
Back to that A.
So [F#] that is fourth and fifth on the G and the B.
[A]
And [B] then you're going to hammer on to the sixth fret.
[A] What you're really doing is you're just taking apart of this A major chord.
[Dm] [C#] [F#m]
[B]
[Bm]
[D] [B] [F#] So you're just going [B] down the B minor chord.
[F] And then you're going to hammer on to the tenth [D] fret.
[B]
Sorry, okay so it's the tenth fret pull off and then you're going to hammer on D [Bm] string seven to nine.
Back
[Em] it into a G [G] shape.
So that's tenth fret and then you're going to bar the seventh fret.
And then you're going to hammer on, or you're actually going to pick to the ninth fret.
Let the G ring open, ninth fret on the D.
[D]
[F#m] [A]
[Bm]
[G] [G#]
[A]
That's [N] just the major chords from G, G sharp [A] to A.
So let's do this all one more time.
[E]
[F#] [D]
[A]
[E] [F#m]
[D] [C#] [F#m]
[A] [Bm]
[G] [D]
[A]
[Bm] [G] [G#]
[A]
[E]
Yes!
So once again, Hendrix Rhythm.
It's good as it gets man.
You gotta learn some out there on YouTube.
Accessible to Love, the whole album is awesome.
Totally worth it, every penny.
Little Wings on it too.
Both of these songs you have to tune down a half step.
E flat.
Alright, [N] good luck.
