Hi all, thanks for the tips about mounting the guitar mount in a stud, BUT: In Holland we usually do not have studs & dry wall, but concrete or brick. This particular wall is at least 20cm thick! Cheers!

Paul Davids Don’t put your guitar on the wall , put it on a typical well made guitar stand , or in the case with proper humidity. 47% . I do this and have a digital humidity gauge in my 2 cases . I have a Eric Clapton Stratocaster. And a new Ovation with Tiger Eye Maple 🍁 I sold my Marshall stack and bought a new Fender Deluxe Reverb 1975 Retro amp

I take a 1 by 6 piece of wood which is thin but strong I screw that to the wall on to the studs then I am able to mount my guitar anyway I need to with the wall hanger I wish I could send a picture to you and I would show you I have 14 guitars on one piece of wood

Standard dutch brick wall you will need a concrete plug. it will anchor itself when you put in the actual wall mount screw.

@@kermitsbench7057 ...if you get it deep enough to get into the wall itself, that is. I think that's the mistake Mr. Davids made: the anchor he used is only long enough to get through the plaster coating, but doesn't reach very far (at all?) into the wall itself. Here in the 'States, we have long "blue screws" that are specially coated and hardened for drilling directly into concrete walls, and they always look unnecessarily-long to me. This is why.

The perfect video, not too slow, not explaining pentatonics as if explaining to a beginner, not explaining chords. Just perfect for the average blues guitarist

My thoughts exactly. But at the same time, it also gently teaches that pentatonics is a thing, which is good for us beginners too.

No just spent a minute talking bout a sound he heard coming from the wall

It’s fantastic how accessible you make seemingly complicated licks. You’re not painstakingly slow in how you break it down, nor are you breathtakingly fast. You teach at just the right speed, granting the masses access to the collective treasure trove of tasty licks. Sir, you’re doing the Guitar Lord’s work.

The way Paul is breaking this down is super helpful. This lesson is going to take my blues playing to new level. Can't wait to dive in!

Beautiful. You're choice of subjects and your presentation are both fascinating and lucidly explained EVERY TIME. Absolutely one of my favorite go-to video spots for guitar instruction. I always come away a better guitar player. What else can I say? Thank you!!

Thank you so much for this Paul. I've been in a rut for about a month and I love love the blues but hadn't anywhere to go until this. This is perfect. Thank you so much for taking the time out for us.

The light and shade and feel is a beautiful thing. I am working on this with these licks and it will absolutely help develop my overall playing. Thank you 🙏

I'm trying to learn this collings video on my own, then I saw your vid. That's what we call blessing. Thanks, Paul!

Love the elements in this piece. In the third lick(phrase), it finishes with the 8 to 6 on the B, then reflects the pattern in chord form by going from an Eb to the slide-in Bb is a wonderfully creative example of the technique, call and response. There are so many of those little nuanced devices hiding in this piece that it is a listening treasure hunt for the ears.

Josh Smith is obviously incredible. Some people believe he's a Blues player, but he's just a player....period. Good walk-through analysis of his playing. Thank you.

Situational awareness for the win on saving the red strat. Good job.

I feel like being stuck in pentatonics the last years but this video showed me what you can do within them. This is inspiring.

Hate those unexpected moments of panic! Especially when it concerns guitars and the law of gravity

Years ago when I was a young lad, I carried my 60's, 345, red, gibson to the top of my stairs, in the case, without hooking any of the latches. It came out of the case and slid down a full flight of stairs. I was horrified but lucky for me the stairs were carpeted and no damage at all. Whew. Lesson learned.

This is great, really appreciate your hard work, just got into Josh Smith so can't wait to get stuck into this, your teaching is brilliant.

Thanks for the video, Paul. I love your instructional videos because they usually go right along with the things that I'm working on. Thanks for the upload and keep the great tips and lessons coming.

Paul, I just have to love the fact that you've used Josh Smith as your golden example here. He's an amazing artist, and really so are you. Kudos - 👍👍👍👌👌

I love blues but could never play it this helped me get fell for it. Thanks so much!!

Thank you for this Paul. You are such a gift to guitar players around the world.

I've taken a lesson in person with Josh Smith and he is an encyclopedia of knowledge when it comes to music and guitar. I feel like I couldn't write all my notes fast enough. He opened me up to a whole new world of looking at guitar and music in general.

I can say that Paul is one of the best teachers i have ever came across!! You are an amazing player and your guitar/amp sound is fantastic!!Thank you for being a gitar master and passing your knowledge to other people. God Bless

If you have about 7 times more views than the source material, you're probably doing something right. Excellent video as always

From one Paul to another: thank you! It's KZreadrs like you that enabled me to finally mail down guitar as a hobby of mine that I've been wanting for so long. A few years ago I started and only wanted to be able to lazily strum some things as a way of soothing myself when I'm lacking other creative outlets, but was so delighted as I continued to progress into what we might call intermediate? Anyway, these videos give me something to work on without pressure, connecting me back to my soul and feelings and sense of accomplishment in some of the darkest times of my life. Thanks ❤❤❤

Finally, this is what I'm talking about. I always wanted you to show some guitar skills as a lesson for the whole world, 'cause I think you are an amazin' guitar player. Please upload more and more guitar lessons. Awesome video. Keep movin'.

Great video thanks! I’ve been trying to learn this guy’s stuff for a while, and this is probably the most accessible analysis of his playing I’ve seen so far. Not a lot of theory, just some positions, basic progression and key, and notes about where the interesting notes are coming from. Enough for me to know what to pick out if I want to improvise in that style across a similar progression. More please!

Very clever. I can see why your channel is successful. Everything u focus on is tasty to the max.👍🎸

Thanks for breaking this one down Paul, super cool blues licks, had a lot of fun learning these! =)

I’m so glad that you were showing josh smith licks in this he’s one of my two favorite guitarist

Paul Davids and KZread... A cosmic convergence..... Simply the best.

Its a delight visiting your channel. Keep up the good work. With love from Assam, India

Great lesson, Paul, really provides insight into his playing, it taught me a lot!

Great lesson. I’ll be working to learn that over the next few days. Beautiful.

And hot beverage time. Dang, the Richards quote you hinted in the previous Blues video is still haunting me. Can't wait to watch this one with my guitar in hands ;) Thanks, as always :)

Man that’s the coolest lick... thanks so much for breaking this down and explaining everything so well... I’ve already tried some of the concepts in my soloing and it’s transformed my sound.. thanks again!!

Very instructive lesson, Paul, Thank you so much! Took me quite some time to figure it all out but it was really worth it, Thx again!

josh smith is the real deal, glad you let us study a bit of his incredible work !

Sweet playing and tones. Nice explanations about how the little slides are minor into major 3rd, etc

Okay, that may be the most beautiful guitar I have ever seen in my life. (The Les Paul)

Awesome! I might use some of these in my next video! Thanks for the inspiration!

Paul thanks for the theoretical breakdown of this blues guitar session! Always a pleasure.

AWESOME video as Josh Smith is an AMAZING guitarist! I remember the first time I ever heard him play it was on KZread with Joe Bonamassa on that cruise they do every year and I was blown away at his playing! Great video once again as I'm gonna spend some time learning & more importantly understanding exactly what he's doing. :)

THX a lot, Paul, for this cool and really great lesson! You are a very good teacher imho - not just showing up but serving your students. I could understand and follow all your instructions and examples.

Thanks for inspiration. I've always wanted to learn some of this solo blues.

Damn, this Les paul, that's why i love gibson, colours, sound, and i love it that's all!!

What an utterly beautiful piece to listen to and even better to play. I've followed Paul for years now but became a Patreon just purely on the back of this.

Thank you for taking the time to help a fellow guitar player.

Hi Paul, I'm so glad you were home when this happened, it could have been a heart-breaker to find your strategy on the floor in pieces. Be sure to always secure to a stud or structural member. I love this piece you taught us here. So bluesy and jazzy. I'll be working on it until I get it. Thanks so much. Steve

I've kept working on that piece for weeks. Still some challenging parts but more or less close to the goal (at least at slower speed). Really a great exercise and beautiful lick. Thanks Paul!

Wow, Hi Paul. I've just recently found your videos and I'm really impressed. I love that you go fast enough to really keep my interest on the piece without explaining it to death. You have the right speed for those of us who already play. Where the heck were you when I was 16 ? Thanks so much for posting these videos, even though I feel like I am stealing from you.

Fantastic Paul - just finished the 12 Bar Blues mix with chords and was a whole lot of fun and sounds great. This is the next challenge! All the best from the UK.

I'm uncertain why several people 'disliked' this, but, ok... jazz-blues is such a thing of beauty, whether it's in your wheelhouse or not! Excellent vid, Paul...

Paul thank you for this You are really amazing at teaching! Your playing is stellar!

I know this is old but I wanted to say how much this lesson inspired me to write my own licks. Your best lesson thank you Paul

Thanks more than you know Paul! Very inspiring as I dive deeper into blues!

Paul always get so much from you videos. Amazing work man keep it up. Just signing up to your patreon to support.

If you dig the guy that this lesson is based off of, his name is Josh Smith (the guy at the beginning on KZread) and he is a MONSTER player. Check out the vids he did at NAMM 2019 and be prepared to be blown away. Nice lesson!

Such a good teacher! Thanks! Please talk us through getting that tone? Which amp profile?

Thanks so much Paul, great job, such a great lesson! So much fun!

Thanks for the excellent analysis Paul, your vids are always really great and with your help I've got that down reasonably well... any chance of you analysing the next chunk of 12 bars please as this is such good piece and I am champing at the bit to learn more....

Felt challenged to try and learn this. I think I got it and is now a regular exercise I use. I am not so good but would like to say it's more because Paul teaches very well! Inspiring indeed

Thanks Paul. Another great lesson. I stumbled across you in 2018 when I was in Rotterdam for the triathlon world championships. Bill from Melbourne, Aus

Ace breakdown and tutorial and, dammit, some tasty lickes there! More of this, please!

Hi. Thank you for this amazing video lesson. You are a great teacher.

this is the most beautiful concept you could make me really happy with: find a beautiful, 12 bar long blues solo and analyze it for us just as you did. Now I want to support you on Patreon!

I heard the sounds you mentioned at 0:28 and 0:36 on my left ear while wearing headphones. Almost made my head turn to the left. Nice thing you did there :)

Perfect I was just practicing your 12 bar blues from LPP!

Wonderfull sound with the Beauty and a great lesson!

Great breakdown and happy the guitar survived to play again another day. Cheers

The transcription is on Soundsclice. It's from a Josh Smith promo video for Collings guitars. He also does promo for Collings at Namm. Often accompanied by Kirk Fletcher. The Norm Rare Guitars de Angelico 1942 performance is similar to this one, and is also on Soundsclice if you search Josh Smith.
