This 12 minute video kept me busy for over an hour. Easily one of the most helpful guitar videos I've ever seen, and from pretty much every possible musical angle. The tabs let me stop the video and try things, and the hesitant but enlightening sparks of music theory gave it definition. It's always awesome to learn a short piece of music and suddenly realize you have a dozen new things in the tool belt that can technically work anywhere.

We definitely need more videos like this one. It’s hypnotizing to watch you creating “live”, also it’s really helpful to listen to skilled guys sharing their knowledge
Love this more improvised style of video! Its always cool to see what you prepared, but this format shows the thought process behind it too
You and your people did an exceptional job making this accessible, informative, yet flowing like two buddies calling and answering. Love your videos!
Rotem's tone is stunning. What a cool video. I love these videos by Paul where he plays a simple idea and then expands on it, and having a guest just makes it that much more fun
I missed when this came out. But I love when you two collaborate together. The mixture of technical skills and rhythm with beautiful voicing and feeling turns a chord progression into music that I want to listen to all day.
This is pure joy to watch.two of my favourites coming together for the collab i wasn't expecting.my day has been made sooo much better.the knowledge imparted here is staggering.thank you Paul and Rotem! I can feel the passion and positive energy radiating from you guys through the screen💯
Wow you two together makes a lot of sense that didn’t before, I hope you two continue to help people like me who are lacking in theory, inversions etc.
I’ve learned so much in this 12 minutes that I can’t believe it. What a time we’re are living in that content like this is free for everyone. Thanks Paul for constantly inspiring me!!
Love it! My favorite style of chords, I used to call these "John Mayer chords" from watching him play years an years ago. I would watch his hands play twister over the fret board and go wth? Now I favor these all the time, great video!!! Great practice material.
Paul you're a brillant teacher. You make it fun and keep it light. This little chord progression is basic and you turn it into actual interesting music with just a few little twists. brillant. all the best to you.
Schitterende chords Paul! En de lekkere solo daarin gespeeld door je compagnon : Beautiful!!! Absolutely Beautiful played! Dank! 🎸👍🏼
You two playing together sounds sooo good!

Geez you guys are so so talented. My mind was blown by the fact that you guys play smooth as butter with no buzzing or muting. Literally my dream is to be able to play like you guys
This is such a wonderfully deceptive title. Knowing and experimenting with your triads and inversions is something you have to keep practicing and applying. Thank you both for making this form of practice accessible, melodic, and fun!!!
I've been a 45 year singer strummer. Pick n grin at times but this tutorial alerted me to grow. This tutorial is the best I've ever heard and so well produced. Couched in a friendship of two brethern harmoniously jamming together almost. The modeling, knowledge and variety expressed between you two is fantastic. I've never saved anybody's Clinic before until now. Thank you friends.
This may be my favorite video yet, I love the jam feel to this, really hope to see more of this style with the colab
Two of my favourite You Tubers collaborating. What’s not to like? Inspiration, knowledge and beautiful music. Thanks both.
That was beautiful to see the evolution of the song from start to finish…. I could listen to that rendition of the basic chords over and over and over again!
Oh man, beautiful! Also this is my first time seeing Rotem. I'm really digging your style, Rotem! Sounded great, guys.
Wow, you guys Paul and Rotem are absolutely the Legends and must do like this together again.
For me, its the sheer joy on both your faces as you work through this together. Reminds me of my favorite times writing with friends.

Beautiful tone and love the inversions. So interesting to see what happens when you play familiar chords in a new and different way.
That's the exact Gretsch colour and hardware combo I've been drooling over lately.. love that machine..
I think you guys were accidentally channeling Elvis, with “Can’t Help Falling in Love”. I loved watching you guys work it out, rather than just blowing our minds with a perfect performance. Thanks!

Joyful as ever Paul. Inspiring as ever, and nice to discover Rotem. You have a great formula in this piece. I agree with the previous poster, I know what you mean, but you shouldn't feel too apologetic about adding in the technical terms as you go, because you are still leaving it open to anyone the way you step through and demonstrate. Thanks for making both!

Thanks this is seriously useful and pragmatic! Love how it also opens up ways to play solos on top - so much more "background" to interact with your solo tones. Super!

It is great to watch the creative process as it unfolds. It opens so many doors!! Great stuff! But I have so say that is sounds a lot like you guys reinvented 'Tears in Heaven' from Eric Clapton ;) haha! Well done!
Sounds awesome! I keep hearing a mixup of I cant help falling in love with you by Elvis!
Great combo with you two, so pleasing to hear your playing
This video format is soooo cool. Going through the whole process of composing and embellishing this chord progression is so inspiring. Starting a serie of video like this one would amazing! So grateful you've shared it, great resource 👍

Really enjoyed this video. Those chords and progression really do sound beautiful. Good job on the video.

Absolutely love this one guys. Opens up a whole new world.
Anyone else just want to listen to Paul’s jamming? Anytime, anywhere, with anyone it is always so amazing!
had a lot of fun learning this one. great way to teach those spread triad voicings!
Rotem is such a great player and this simple tune became the foundation for a beautiful piece of music. I suspect Paul absolutely knows his theory yet jocularly plays up the mystery of it.
Impressive and inspiring to watch both of you gentlemen who know the fret board so well collaborate 💪❤ . Thank you.
What a wonderful video, I only try and practice the first minutes for now, but even for beginners there is a lot to get from this. Thanks a lot
This is exactly how arrangements are crafted from fret positions that allow bass & melodies without reaching! But the knowledge to play all over until it fits? And name each one! Bravo. It's neck knowledge.
Really helpful video, Paul. Also, just want to say really enjoying the Electric Elevation course. It's been exactly what I needed to get my playing to the next level.
So beautiful. I hear melodies from like 6 different songs which is amazing. Cant wait to get home and try this out!
