I saw a good guitar lesson based around the work of a legend without any official nor viewer timestamps. So I volunteered. :) 0:29 Staccato Leads 2:00 Octave Jumps 3:16 Octave Above/Below 4:21 Rhythmic Octaves 5:05 Trumpet Trills 6:09 Fuzz Rakes 7:31 Spring Reverb Tail (it's just a reverb pedal, so you sound less dry while playing with fuzz.) 8:18 Bridge Plucks (Folks like to call it "Country Twang") 9:36 "The Siren Effect/Trick" (The name and the sound immediately triggered "Tales of brave Ulysses" by Cream in my mind.) 10:12 Bass Line Riffs 10:45 Arpeggiated Chords 11:41 Bass Simulation 12:03 Quick Switch Barre Chords 13:16 Power Chord Bends 13:56 Nervous Vibrato 14:47 Chord Rakes 15:42 Dead Mute Strums 16:44 Soloing Over Changes 18:13 Single String Turnaround 19:35 Power Chord Arpeggios 20:28 Octave Slides with Mutes 21:22 Open Pentatonic Speed Lick 22:19 Toggle Kill Switch 23:43 "Friends" Picking Pattern And That's it folk. Good Luck.
It’s so weird. I started learning guitar playing with Jack’s music. Basically I learned all of the White Stripes songs in two years 😅 So all of these techniques are just natural to me. And it feels really odd to see someone making sense of all them. Never thought i know many guitar techniques 😂

White Stripes is a great band to start playing guitar, because they have very complex and very simple songs. You can start by learning Fell in Love With a Girl and still feel excited to learn stuff like Ball and Biscuit.

Agreed. As a youngster, I wanted to learn guitar. That had to wait until my 40's. I actually didn't know Jack White until the pandemic. I'd heard of the white stripes and some of their songs but didn't realize those songs were their songs.. I knew steady as she goes but not the Raconteurs. And Dead Weather. Nope. When I started bass in 2020, 7NA was one of the first easiest bass lines to learn. And there we a have rabbit hole. I've since added guitar as well and tho I have many musical favorites, Jack is simply my favorite guitarist and I'm studying him. The way he uses very basic styles but in a very elaborate way. He's brilliant.
I never noticed your background is black, white and red. not until now when youre doing a Jack White video.

That would be life changing
One thing to point out when it comes to signal chain. Jack White puts his Fuzz before the Whammy specifically because of the sound difference. Since the nature of the fuzz is to create practically a square wave, it (in my own opinion,) creates a more organic sound from the pitch pedal, simply because its not having to process all the points on a sine/saw wave. Don't forget that if the hair is to furry on the fuzz, just roll back your volume knob to curb it a little. Good video.
I think when Jack recorded he just put his guitar on an octave, if you watch the "It may get loud" documentary, I think he mentions it in that. Class video by the way dude.

This is true, if you listen to the isolated track you can hear some of the artifacts created by the Whammy.
Maybe Johnny Marr next? He is absolutely criminally underrated by a lot of people but is genuinely brilliant, and he also plays very differently to a lot of guitarists and as such he would be a particularly interesting one to cover, imo.

5 hours ago I searches ”Jack white guitar techique” on youtube just after watching one of your videos, and now I see this uploaded 2 hours ago...
Awesome. I saw him live recently and it blew my mind how he made his songs come alive simply with creative guitar playing
I really liked this video, Jack White is one of my favorite guitar players as I feel he is able to use the guitar to maximize the passion and the soul of a song. You just know he was playing around and stumbled on a sound and knew right away that he needed to use that new sound in his musical voice. I don’t think he went looking for a new sound but he definitely followed where it took him. My favorite Jack White moment is in the movie it might get loud and him, the edge, and jimmy page were all sitting around in a circle, then jimmy page stood up and started to play, jacks face changed to an excited school boy where you could visibly see the sound giving him chills and speaking to his core. The reason I like this so much is these little experiences are why I play guitar and I definitely knew what he was feeling. I don’t know if you dabble in Canadian Rock but Gordon Johnson of Big Sugar, Grady, and Wide Mouth Mason plays with a lot of open tunings and gets a very rich bluesy sound. I love it, check it out and I would love to see some of his stuff on the channel.

Mike, u made my day with this video! I was waiting for this for sooo long time. I'm really glad u finally make that one!!!
Epic tutorial, and thank you for taking the time to put it together. An impressive feat!
Really enjoying this video. Fast paced but grounded and thorough.

Also thanks a lot for these ;) Your approach is cool and makes me wanna play more so thanks dude
Easily the best JW lesson I've seen. Really comprehensive, top work
13:04 Black Math such a sick punk riff
Hey There ! I just wanted to add few things on your video : - The sound of Jack White is better, imo, when you use Overdrive on the amp (or after the muff on the pedal layout so you don't boost it up) with the Big Muff Pi. It provides a nice Fuzz and really warm instead of the pedal alone. This way you can use overdrive as a base sound you can lower with your guitar volume. I found the "Texture" of sound more "fuzzy". - Seven Nation Army as been confirmed by JW on "It Might Get Loud" to be played with his Kay guitar which provides a really nice bass sound. - Instead of the kill switch, JW performs a Stutter technique thanks to the fuzz (you can hear in Black Math and Weep Themeselves to Sleep solos), which can be done not using a pick but your fingers - Also, did you chose your guitar with three stripes on purpose ? 'cos that is really jacky ;) Anyway, really awesome work and video dude !
Jack always says that he lets the music tell him what to do. Whilst other guitarists might try and over complicate things he keeps it simple yet very effective.
Thank man! Been asking for this for a while, so glad you did this!
Awesome awesome awesome vid man. You’re great at explaining things and giving descriptive characteristics to some of his techniques (like the “nervous” band). Helped things click for me.
Fantastic video! Thanks for these tips
Definately one of my biggest influences.Thanks! There wouldn't be me playing guitar without Billie Joe, Kurt and Jack. I'd like to know what gear you where using especially the amp and the first guitar. Because a Montgomery Airline (like Jack uses a lot) is hard to find and way too expensive, especially when you're lefthanded like me. And I'd say there is no White Stripes sound without a Fender Dual Reverb amp.

This is a great video. You really nailed a lot of the techniques that make Jack's sound so unique and interesting. It's like you're showing me why I like the white stripes...
Have you considered making a video about Adam Jones? I love how his playing can be surprisingly simple while still sounding epic and interesting.
Awesome!! Thanks for spending your time making this for us.. I love my whammy but you've just added to its usefulness.
This was great! Your guitar techniques videos are awesome.
Dude this is the video i have been looking for, for ages!!!! Subscribed!!!
Holy shit this is such an underrated video. You nail his feel and sound so well. Definitely going to try this out in my playing.
I've needed this for so long! Thank you man
Thanks for this!! You sounded great!
OML thank you!!! I can never find a good jack white guitar lesson video
Thanks I always learn something new in your videos
This was a really great and interesting video
GREAT DEMO / CLIP . . . much appreciated !!!
Thanks. That was great. I'm a big fan of Jack and his unique style 😎🎸🔊🔊🔊
Great video! Sometimes we get caught up with fancy techniques and complex chords and forget what can be done with the basics.
This was so helpful. Thats for the tips bro!
Finally!!! Thank you so much. Love your videos.
3:00 little cream soda, what a riff. Criminally underrated song.
Excellent video. Learned a lot of my favorite guitar player
Thanks for that mate, lot’s of techniques to dig into
This video is brilliant love this!
Great video you really help me with my playing
I really enjoyed this ! For years I’ve been making these sounds . You guys articulate what amd how to do them . I make most of the sounds on a boss me80 . The pedals give it that isolated punch , the sound deserves
Great video man! It's help me a lot!
The ball and biscuit riff...thank you man. Never got it!! You're a beast!
Excellent video!! Thank you!!
Very in depth, thanks for this
6:00 dude you freaked my dog out!
I am a big Jack White fan. can't believe I only just saw this. I got a fuzz pedal the other day and after watching this video I put on reverb with it. AWSOME sound!
That was definitely pretty cool. Jack White is certainly able to do a lot with a little.
Yesssss!! I with waiting for this for ages! U should do Tom Morello as well.
Thanks man, there's a lot of useful information in there.
I suggested this a while ago, and you finally got to it. Nice!

Really cool video! Very accurate and interesting.
This is so good. Thank you! 😺
in jack's case, *noivous bends
Really good video. You've set just the right tone. Knowledgable without being smug or self-absorbed! Have 'liked' and subscribed....
I have been looking for a KZread video for Black Math for three days and this is the most efficient way for the main riff 12:04. Thank you.
Like the video, like to see more on this type. Thank you for the time and effort
I use a lot of single notes as opposed to chords when I write, and despite never being much into Jack White, I love his over all style ✌❤
I have heard a lot White Stripes in the last time and then you brought up this video. Thanks!
Great video and channel! 👌🏻
Rory Gallagher please!
awesome! i love this series
cool video i thought id learnt alot of bad habits but i tend to use alot of these techniques i feel inspired thank you.
That harmony setting on the octave below setting sounds awesome with that fuzz
Great, thank you!
matt bellamy from muse would be awesome ;)
Dud not know I learned so much from jack when I started. Most of these I still use today.
thanks, this really helped a lot!
Great vid you nailed his tone!
30 seconds in and you are already teaching something important. Great.
Well done. I appreciate your skills
This was fantastic
Thanks for another great video! I just saw Jack White play a couple weeks ago. It was a great show. How about a John 5 artist series. That dude is amazing and it would be great to see some of his techniques.
Just found this randomly. If the rest are this good I know I’m going to enjoy this channel.
My only problem is that I only can like this video once. It is not facebook where I can go and ADMIRE it, so I have to write it down... I am in total love with Jack White's work. I have watched some videos before about Jack White's techniques but those aren't so good. This video is a very professional and complete one. Shows everything that I could ask for, and does it in a perfect way. It gives us an introspection about why he is a soo good and original musician. I really love Jack White and I have been following his work by now for ages, but this video just leaves me more impressed than ever about him. Thank you a lot, I really appreciate that you took your time to make this gorgeous video to show us in more dephts a brilliant musician. :) Thank you! :)
Great video!!!!
Would be so cool to see Mikael Åkerfeldt’s techniques
This is excellent timing, I just got back from a Jack White concert!
I do the nervous bends as well! Not intentional, its because I'm weak.
Thank you just thank you !!
