One thing I take from this guy is that we guitarists should, while rehearsing and performing, try to RELAX and avoid hurrying and stressing out. These lessons have a lot of Zen in them! 😌🎸

My late lifelong friend & mc club brother, passed from a motorcycle accident in June 2021... a few months before he passed he gave me a guitar under the condition I learn to play.... at this point in time in my life, I'm homeless, getting a divorce and recovering from addiction.... I'm ready to get out of north Alabama and just get away and learn to play.... where do I start.... Michael Palmerise put me on to you and I love your sound your style and tone.... I grew up on jazz blues and blue grass... I love lynyrd skynyrd songs like, same old blues, one for the bad guy, cheatin woman, on the hunt, I ain't the one just to give where my vibe and heart is... but I'm just looking for day 1 lesson one.... I'm in north alabama but I'm pondering moving to Lynchburg, Murfreesboro or just where I run out of gas.... it's a new start a new life and all that's here is a shattered heart and broken dreams every where I drive around this place.... any direction would be appreciated and I thank anyone else's input but I am specifically asking Mr jack ruch

I feel like this video gave me a huge lightbulb moment. You can IMMEDIATELY feel how much more funky the lick sounds when played on the and of 1; literally the same exact lick but with an entirely different feel.

[stephenowen]

I always check in just to hear you play regardless of the content. It's like somebody is pouring maple syrup in my ears! 🙂 Thanks agains for your hard work and these YouTube lessons. I spent the whole week working on your Gospel Dominant Fives lesson. You're a great educator man! The explanations are so clear. Stay well!

Awesome lesson Jack! Your seriously one of my favorite players I’m not just blowing smoke! Mostly due to your phrasing honestly but also you manage to play “Outside” from time to time without is sounding crazy some guys get a little to obscure for my ears

[thewoodys_surf_instrumental]

Fun to hear Miles and other Jazz-masters do exactly this in their improv. Frank Sinatra also making this sound so easy, when in reality it’s quite difficult. Jack, really dig your videos and cool guitars!

[taildragger]

This is so extremely informative, invaluable and so warmly explained with patience. Thank you so much!! Love all, your videos.

[blumoe]

Very nice Jack! Appreciate you sharing with us! PEACE!!!

[AP-uioi]

Doyle Bramhall II is really good at this approach. Nice video!

[martinoplayer]

i have been watching lessons on youtube for over 10 years. your one of the very best thanks Jack

[jimc]

Jack continually keeps us on our toes!! I've never considered this before and this exercise most definitely gets me rethinking plus the juices flowing. I find myself actually up and down the fretboard experimenting with this phrasing and getting creative in my own right!! Jim C.

[scrumpymanjack]

This is guitar on a whole other level. Lovin' it! Thank you, thank you.

[bringthenoise]

Today I randomly remembered I found a dude who was ice cold and gave lessons but I couldn’t remember the name for the life of me. Needless to say I’m SO glad this popped up in my suggestions. This is the best phrasing I’ve seen on YouTube beside Derek Trucks. Thank you for posting!

[rafaelyacub]

WHAT A HUMBLE GUY AND INSPIRING GUITAR PLAYER!!!! I am here to learn but ended up put away my guitar only to watch this magnificent guitar playing. What a jaw dropping guitar playing!

[DaveZnoise]

Your touch and dynamics inspire me to pay more attention to my own. Great playing!

[bigbrutus]

Excellent as always. I learned that ending solo you're doing... lots of wonderful ideas in there, so thank you very much!

[emrysbaird]

a vocal count on each would have been nice just to guide us in lesson Jack!

[EchoesOfTheDeep]

You have the best ideas for guitar exercises on Youtube. Love your channel.

[Pedraforta]
