This is the hardest thing I've ever done in my life. Hats off to folks who can cleanly rake like this chap.
Nice lesson. It’s tricky to learn but when you get it down it’s gold
Nice job man! Really spent time to get it into our skulls and fingers. Like the way a Rake can become a Chuck ala Chic and a full bar strummed Rake can become a Jimi H intro to All Along T W! Respect.
Cool! This is the type of practicing that convinces people you have finally lost your marbles. It’s one of those techniques that takes a long time to perfect if that’s even possible. There’s a great set of 5 lessons on KZread where B.B. King shows a lot of his methods. One of them shows his raking technique. He does a G arpeggio and as with most blues techniques, nobody does it better than B.B. Outstanding lesson Corey!
Glad to see you focus on the right hand too. Had a teacher once who said “the key playing blues is horrible right hand technique done perfectly.”
I can't believe how good my right hand has gotten and I couldn't tell you how I figured out the rake to save my life. I just started doing it one day.

great to hear!
5:50 "yer sloppy right hand"--good term. I appreciate the corrective awareness...thx!
Most likely was me remarking about extending 'The Rake is Dirty' technique off your nice Texas Blues Rhythm Factory course, Corey.....you know me.......I'm perpetually guilty of making reference to specific lessons off your years old courses like you have instant recall!! Glad you covered this............I thought we'd have to learn raking from your ever present Thursday landscapers!! One thing that would have highlighted this lesson though.....is review of that cool quick SRV slide from below the 12th fret for emphasis!! This occurs around the 1:00-1:14 minute mark on your initial demonstration of this raking technique!! Very cool lesson and I especially liked how you emphasized to your KZread fans that this is a fantastic means of practicing our pentatonic scales at different positions on the fretboard!! Jim C.
I love that guitar
This is the only helpful video I could find on this concept... thank you for your gift of teaching!!
The down and dirty good ol'rake ! Great lesson Corey !
I’ll never forget the first time I saw another player do a rake into a bend and realized that my NOT doing rakes was at least one reason my playing sounded so “polite” and boring!
Thanks Corey, you got me raking! Observation: In many situations when relying on the left hand for muting, I have to mute where the related chord notes are, because if I mute elsewhere, the sound of the notes on those muted frets does leak in and change the color of my main note.
OMG so greatful for this lesson really trying to get that SRV sound and racking is really where i need to zone in LOVE YOU COREY thanks again!
This… This is what I was looking for. Thank you. Now to practice.
Thanks for this i’ve watched that lesson probably at least 50 times at the slowest speed to really figure out what you were doing. Worth it because of how awesome the sound is.
Thanks Cory! Ever since taking your course’s on TrueFire you have become one of my favorite teachers next to Jeff McErlain..you guys rock🤘🏻🎸🤘🏻 gifted teachers. Didn’t know you had a KZread channel until the other day after a lesson and figured I would see if you did a you did just like Jeff! I am pumped🤘🏻 only question I have if you even read this is what two-rock combo you have in the back that’s turned on? Looks like a combo on top of a cab.. can’t tell you the color as color blind but the light is on and love the sound of two-rock amps!
Excellent lesson, you explained everything so well! All I need to do now is practice, practice, practice. Impressive tone & playing as usual, you really showcased how to use this technique.

Great demo Corey. I remember Rake is Dirty from Rhythm Factory: Texas Blues at TrueFire. l think the explanation was good, but I find the most difficult part is the vibrato, as you don't keep your hand flat for the vibrato, so can't mute the strings so well, so can't keep chugging away. I think some more explanation about this tricky bit would be good.
Heck, that video is out exactly when I start to tackle the technique ! Thank's Corey !
wow that Texas groove!! also great lesson! thanks
Great lesson indeed ! thx !
Thank you Corey...another excellent lesson. Ties in very well with the blues shuffle instruction you did with Brett....clears up alot! Please keep em' coming!
Great lesson! And that tele is ridiculous!🔥

Great video Corey! Can you make a video on the Texas style glissando/slide down the guitar? the fill people play in between licks? Not sure how to get it clean sounding and not many, if any, videos on it online. Thanks!
I am miles from ever getting this.
Fantastic!
Many thanks for this lesson on the "rake", very instructive and useful. Could you please watch Robben Ford play "midnight comes too soon" on RTL france and explain the technique of a rake incorporated into a rake with a pulloff he uses on the B minor chord of the main verse.I've seen many people including yourself play this kind of thing, RJ Ronquillo and Matt Schofield use it a lot, it includes a rake with a pulloff to finish maybe on the 3rd of a 9th chord for example. This lesson has been great but it doesn't explain what's driving me mad, don't mean to be ungrateful your lessons are among the best out there but can you go the extra mile on this one ?
Thank you, great job as always
Great!! I loved it !

Great mate
At 4:26-4:30: Corey- "..you see, I push that note down right when I get to it." Sam. "OH! Well, hell!. That' an epiphany.." So when you're raking a down stroke, your hitting the strings before the "note' and just muting the strings after the note so they don't ring out. The upstrokes are all muted rakes late in the video demonstrating the SRV technique. Alternatively, early in the video (1:05-1:40) you're doing the opposite, raking upward. So raking can be done in either direction then? You just need to be aware of raking before the note, hitting the note, then muting? Thank you Corey..
SMOOOOVV BABY!
Rake is Dirty is exactly I'm here! Thanks for this! My problem with that lick is muting the rest of the strings when holding down the 3rd fret of B&G strings. The high e string rings as well most of the time when doing the circular picking. Can you explain how to do that?

When you play the G string, are you muting the D string with your right hand or 2nd and 3rd fingers of your left? Great lesson!

Right hand most likely
how are you muting the D string? palm? i don't think you mention that up front....could be wrong tho' :)
Not sure how that could be taught any better - just a matter of practicing it after this video! But I do have one question: at 10:36, about playing the lower strings, you said you have to get the fingers “up here to really match it”? Can you rephrase or explain that part? Thanks 👍🏻

Thanks..got this technique from Al Di Meola’s book “Guide to Chords, Scales, & Arpeggios “. He’s got a very “strict “ philosophy on picking technique..fer sure..
Sorry for noob question. But when he says key of E, am I to assume E minor? (As this is mostly a blues centric channel)
@danielbarth
3 жыл бұрын
As a rule of thumb, when somebody says"key of E", they refer to E major. If it was E minor, they would specify that. In Blues, you often play the minor pentatonic over a major key/chord because the major chords in Blues are often dominant seven chords, including the minor seven note, which is also in the minor pentatonic. And the clash between minor third in the pentatonic and the major third in the chord highlights the blue note that sits between those two notes.

Yes, usually that's the case. Some people might be "sloppy" though (:
If I tried this at home , i would be divorced in no time. Definitely, need headphones
👍
Alternate picking, legato, slides, etc are mostly repetition that can be learned at slow speeds and built up.. raking feels more like art or witchcraft; you can practice for weeks/months.. nothing. Then suddenly, something clicks and you're a Jedi! Point is, don't stop trying, everyone can learn it, but it's a right pain in the ass at first.
