How to Be a Tasteful Guitarist, ep 2: The Doublestop 6th

"You can do what you want, this is a recreational activity" is maybe my favorite guitar advice ever.

Damn the top on that guitar body is nuts, imagine that beast with brass or gold hardware. Thanks for the great content as always.

Very tasteful. The fretboard image actually works for my brain. It reminds me that I recently grabbed an image of the fretboard from Guitarpro, and of course it's sort of mirrored (opposite to what you did), and I personally found that mirrored view confusing. Excellent video as always.

By far the best, most thorough lesson on sixthesths I have seen. Thank god you exist! It took me awhile, but when I realized that these are just upside down 3rds, it helped me get the concept...

Those mixolydian 6ths are just instant Jerry Garcia. Loved this one Eric!

I'm really enjoying your quiet, soothing approach to this stuff, for me it's quite inspiring actually. I'm 68 years old and have been playing guitar since I was around 11 when I started taking lessons in 1967, (only for two years unfortunately). I was in a local Rock band in high school and in my late teens, that was a lot of fun and fairly easy just knowing a couple of dozen chords and knowing how to improvise soloing somewhat. Minor pentatonic is a good friend in high school, lol. I have a few guitars, 5 electric, 1 acoustic, and three amps right now, I do play just about every day. I'm mostly self-taught, unfortunately, but I really enjoy what I'm able to do on guitar. I'm not very good but it's a lot of fun none the less. I'm really enjoying your channel, keep up the good work. As you know there's a plethora of guitar info online, but I really only watch you and one other person. Too many Metal heads out there, it's quite refreshing watching you! Thanks!

The lesson is great… but, I am also distracted by that gorgeous guitar! Sounds great, too.

Go figure... not looking for anything related to 6th's at the moment, but it's Eric so I watched it. Ended up learning a ton. Thanks, man!

Great lesson, every time I think I have a handle on a concept, you come along and show me there's more to it than I thought. Thanks.

The sixths and thirds mixed together are most useful fill intervals. Great stuff.

George Harrison taught me that a few years ago. Learned playing Dig a Pony with my band.

Eric, you are AWSOME! Great teacher, beautiful guitar, real human approach to the guitar. My new favorite! Much success to everything you do.

Great as always, Eric. You really are just a great teacher. And you have great ideas. And you have great taste in music. Really just a great resource for all of us out here. Cheers.

HAUGEN!!!!!!! You're the man, dude. You're the dude, man! I have been enjoying your channel for a couple years now. For real you got a way about ya. I preciate chya. Keep on rocking in the free world!

Great lesson! Amazing guitar. Looks and sounds so good! 😎

I like your teaching tempo, your clarity and visual supports. Great lesson plans. That's why I subscribed.😊

This was a great one for me Eric. I do love your channel!! Nothing compares😊.

Perfect mate. I am playing a bit of rhythm guitar with the band I am in (normally harp and vocal) and have been looking for something like this. Perfect timing Thanks

You're a great teacher and a great dude! Thanks for sharing your knowledge 🤘🏻

Thanks for another quality video Eric! 6ths are really interesting and harmonious.
