Andy is a brilliant guitarist-and teacher!

Awesome 👍🏼. I love Larry Carlton

Teaching guitar is your x factor for sure❤

AOR West Coast is one of the best genre EVER

A lesson in the style of Norman Brown would be awesome too. ❤

Oh yes!

Excellent teaching. Great instruction to a mysterious music style.

Andy, your playing is so smooth, you make butter feel like sandpaper.

Great lesson. Clear, concise and perfectly presented.

Amazing lesson, love this style, thanks!

Woohoo for part 2! I'm surprised you didn't use the bridge pickup?

Great Lesson many thanks 🙂👌

You always have such class in your lessons, Andy. A real smooth touch. I like that delay effect on this too. Great job.

Thank you!!

I would love to try this Helix patch with my LC Sire H7. Can you share please? You are so incredibly inspiring with your tones and licks Andy!

Another great video Andy. I've often wondered what it's called when soloing freestyle and pursuing the perfect phrase for any given piece of music, what is it about guitarists (when soloing) that they pursue the perfect note at the right time on any given bar. It's almost like a drug. What drives us to to that ? Is it the same thing as creative/artistic expression ?! or are we control freaks ? Ive been a guitarist for 35 years and I still do it ! lol

We talking smoooooth jazz 😊

Great lesson ! Thank you Andy. Could you be able to explain the lick playjng from 4:28 to 4:34?

Good question - the chord is Em9 and I use the A Mixolydian Passing Tone scale (with an extra chromatic note thrown in. In my mind, Em7 and A7 are the same chord therefore I play the same scale on both. The ending part is a direct Charlie Parker lick.

Thank you very much. @@AndyDacoulis

Great lesson, playing, and killer tone!….what reverb are you using?…the notes just hang there like a heavenly choir with perfect eq on it, not sharp and spikey or too dark….awesome

I use the 63 Spring Reverb in the Helix. But you might be referring to the stereo delay that you hear in the sound. Thank you

👍👍👍👍👍

Good stuff! Care to share the Helix tone patch? 😁

Thanks,, Andy! @@AndyDacoulis

Love your instruction, playing, etc. And your tone is impeccable. I, too, use a 335. Just wondering which delay pedal you are using and what are your settings. Thanks, Stephen.

Hi Stephen - I use the Line 6 Helix for my videos. My delay is a stereo delay, set to a dotted 1/8 on one side, and 1/8 on the other.

Thank you for the response!

Quick question, what size string gauges do you use? As I get older, bending in tune gets harder!

I use 10-46 on this guitar, and 9-42 on my Strats.

"West Coast Guitar licks" needs some Steve Lukather.
