Comment from : Brandon Jimenez

Hey, I learned to play on an acoustic, and wow!! An electric guitar was like learning a new instrument entirely!! I play many of the noise maker's but that was a tricky transition haha i always over squeeze an electric 😅

2:34 - Let's not forget MTV, Gentlemen Music videos changed EVERYTHING Nobody wanted to watch a vid with a guy sitting in a chair playing an acoustic guitar The first damn video was Buggles' "Video Killed the Radio Star", for God's sake Video also made it possible for the VERY untalented to be successful because it wasn't about the music so much as the image I LOVED MTV, but I also noticed that music in general took a nose dive as far as TALENT was concerned If you had a synth and a drum machine and wore a lot of make-up, the tune was a hit Right?

Comment from : Switch Yard

Alright man, I think I have to leave a comment about this Talking about musicians locking in on each other's sound There's a video on YouTube with the Cure jamming with Korn and it's an improv and its so tight These guys locked in and grooved and it was incredible

Poor Dave,I'm going to send him a pair of jeans that don't have holes in them!
Comment from : MARSHALL

You guys are always fun, interesting and educational, I love your group vids! Comments Watch Tommy Emmanuel to see every kind of picking and strumming that exists, and a few that are impossible Watch Joe Bonamassa to see mastery of electric and acoustic guitars, while singing lead And experiment with different guitars and stylesget a 12 string acoustic and learn to finger pick on it It will make you a better guitar player!
Comment from : Gil René

I have both because my theory is to learn how to play on an electric and practice on an acoustic You'll become a better player
Comment from : zebfox011

I learned classical guitar and general steel string I had a hard time switching to electric I would press strings too hard which would change their pitch; I would get extra sounds on the electric ( I have to be very cognizant on what my picking hand is touching); had to change posture etc
Comment from : harlequin75

it's a couple of months that i'm basically closed home learning how to play guitar with zero social life and suddenly you guys are my best friends
Comment from : Matteo Spedicati

Some of the most beautiful music is 12 string acoustic music alongside pure piano music Tesla had some beautiful acoustic guitar
Comment from : Robert Cotton

I’ve been an acoustic player since i was 17 (now 24) Only now I have began practicing and for me electric is way harder! You know, bending properly, the vibrato, bending and concentrating on playing power chords without that stupid wshh noise when you change power chords Challenging stuff
Comment from : Artem Esaulkov

I've been playing acoustic guitar for 25 years but I just started playing electric this year Super fun to learn all these new things Though when I was younger every time I was handed an electric I felt so disconnected from everything I knew about guitar and I thought I always sounded silly
Comment from : lordseph

I started learning on electric, cus I wanted to Rock Distortion covers a lot of Sins, so I loved it Playing acoustic forced me to play better, and at this point, I prefer acoustic Plus, it's much more neighborhood friendly When I do go electric, I like it Loud, playing off the Amp Headphones can't create the natural sound of a room, what have you
Comment from : Mark Rushton

what about radiohead acoustic songs?
Comment from : Xavier Morgan

can yall make a video on string muting and string isolation? please?????? this has been an issue for me for years
Comment from : tatman5780

Everyone should start on an acoustic It’s more difficult in that it requires more hand strength It’s also harder to hide your faults Last, all you need is the guitar
Comment from : Chris Dolan

I play acoustic fingerstyle My right hand is much better than my left I was inspired by Paul Simon, which is the fingerstyle of the english folk-guitarists, Martin Carthy, Bert Jansch, Davey Graham They also inspired Page When I try electric it just rings and sounds completely out of tune
Comment from : Ronny Skaar

Never saw Edge or Andy Summers with acoustic
Comment from : Ronny Skaar

King's X Those vocals are as big as the grooves
Comment from : Mark Lee Wilkins

A great way to listen to your playing habits is to PRACTICE in the dark For some reason, you have to rely on your touch and your ears to hear the tone and dynamics
Comment from : A J Fronce

You guys need to listen to Opeth HEAPS of acoustic, along with dark, heavy, metal riffs
Comment from : S Drak

I think the perception for a lot of younger players today is that acoustic is 'softer', 'older' (which is a negative in their eyes), and more 'folk' brAs a drummer, playing to a click when recording comes largely (I think) from the software grid It's hard to match up tracks and edit when the drums aren't locked to whatever time is set in the software When i record, I use a click, but playing with other musicians, I never use it Honestly, I hate clicks, but often, the software (and/or producer) determines the need
Comment from : Madness by Design

All Valid points But ?? What about the Absolute New Musician's ??? Thats why Punk was so Fresh Because you had people who just wanted to be on stage with Guitars & stuff & Play I met ( over the years ) lot's of young people who had been ' Crushed ' by Musicians who laughed at their 1st attempt's & Yet I also found that the really Gr8 Musicians were the one's who would take the time to encourage you & give you a few tip's I know you are all gr8 Teachers in your own way But growing up poor & struggling to find strings for your Guitar at all was a Gr8 teacher for me As Mark Knopfler said in an interview " If you want to learn you will make it happen " Fight through the early pains of practice & learning etc

Try Presto by Rush Both kinds of guitar are used in rock n rollbrIt makes it sound folksy or space age when Hawkwind uses an acoutic

As far as Nu Metal bands, Linkin Park has some songs on acoustic The Messenger is a great song
Comment from : RandommNinja

I play acoustic,Electric & bass guitar and of course ukulele So Nice to play different instruments
Comment from : Lasse

The biggest lesson I ever got from my dad was, NEVER STOP Don't stop playing under any circumstances Finish the effing song Don't stop if you mess up a chord Don't stop if you get off tempo Don't stop if you get lost Don't stop if you drop your pick Don't stop if you step on your cord and screw something up Don't stop if a string breaks Don't stop if you have to piss your pants, if you knock your beer over, if a hornet lands on your face don't stop playing unless someone has to call 911 for something Figure it out Mute all the strings and keep strumming nothing if you have to try to get back on track But NEVER STOP!

Smashing pumpkinsacoustic and heavy
Comment from : Bryan Smith

I have picked up my first guitar a couple of days ago Of course I bought an electric because that's what I think sounds coolest and also: metal 😂 BUT while at home I often just pick up the guitar and just practice for 10-15 minutes without plugging in the amp or turning it on so I was wondering as a complete beginner is it possible to learn both at the same time? For more focused sessions I probably would use the e guitar but when just wanting to repeat something real quick the acoustic is more convenient

Comment from : curlybluesman

I'm 80 deaf and plays the sax in the high school band, and I had the reputation of having good timing, and not get lost in the songs But my hearing loss is from birth control which is nerve development damage, long story short I had the nerves to hear lower sound pitch and miss out the higher pitch, which allow me to be tune to the drums beats I didn't drift away to the flutes or Clarinets I think hearing you guys talk made me click in my brain about playing along to the drums

Comment from : ASMR DadBod

I play both, but for acoustic I prefer nylon stringed classical guitars
Comment from : ASMR DadBod

11:25 Im well into my bass and guitar playing, but still learning guitar Sometimes when im bored I just play into pro tools along with spotify and record it Listening back to those is sometimes really humbling Like "Damn I really sucked at that part" and go back and work on it Obviously not everyone has a interface and the gear to record into pro tools, but recording yourself is super important if you want to get better Also at 13:30, playing with a drummer is an incredible way to get some coordination between playing with others down I've been playing with my drummer for close to 2 1/2 years and I know exactly when he is gonna do some sort of fill, because Im used to his drumming The metronome part is also a good point, instead of playing to the click, play to each other, and if you can develop that skill of being able to keep in tempo even when its changing is huge, especially as a bass player Feel is the most important thing to a bass+drums groove, not the click
Comment from : KujoB6

I learned on an electric hollow body (to piss off my Dad, a banjo player) but Dad taught me finger picking which I used Sold my guitar in college, returned to playing decades later and found finger picking easy and the pick clumsy
Comment from : Douglas Axtell

I've come back to this video because for the last couple of years, I've mainly been playing an electric with a cover band for awhile and after recently after picking up my acoustic I find that some of those skills have diminished It took me a good couple of months to get back to playing well on my acoustic again My musical tastes are changing back towards the singer songwriter tunes of the past that I now find a lot more satisfying to play at my little solo gigs brI also feel a greater connection with the audience as the smaller venues are more intimate

Oasis was the best in the 90’s at mixing acoustic and electric guitars He’d write the songs on acoustic and build most of them into electric guitar songs

Wait recording is worse than what I hear 👂 🤦‍♂️🤡🤣😂 🎶 brActually I am finally making progress but these 150 bpm “beginner” songs are killing me

When it comes to mastering every style of picking on both electric and acoustic, you could do multiple episodes on Steve Howe, who when he started studied the masters like Chet and Django by ear

OMG, I had to rewind 15 seconds several times because your laughter was so awesome and infectious
Comment from : Kimberly Borrowdale

Another advantage of starting with acoustic- you are not distracted by endless exploration of tone The tone is limited by technique Forcing you to focus on rhythm and melody
Comment from : Paul Grant

The avenged sevenfold song thatRhett was talking about was either “seize the day” or “so far away”
Comment from : Jake Seitz

Another EXCELLENT video from Mr Beato
Comment from : Steven Koehler

One big thing not mentioned is playing acoustic and electric is two separate things If you go play your electric repertoire on an acoustic it will sound like an electric player playing acoustic Exemple: listen to Brad Paisley play acoustic you can tell he is not an acoustic player He just plays his electric riffs But if you listen to someone like Clarence White he clearly separates the two This is very important Learn your craft to each instruments
