[A] Friends, Joe here at Reverb.com.
We are diving into some riffs and songwriting techniques in the key of George Harrison.
In this video we will be learning the intro 12-string guitar part to Ticket to Ride.
Got an Agile AS820 12-string here, a nice [Ab] budget way to get you to the 60s jangly 12-string
tones, and we are actually smashing this riff with an MXR [Em] Dyna-Com as well.
The riff is very simple.
Open A chord [A] right here, you just go on A and then strings 1, 2, 3.
And you're lifting up that pinky [B] or whatever finger you're using there on the B string.
Open up the B and hit open B, [E] open E.
[A] [E]
[A] [E] [Abm] Now the rhythm on that open B is just somewhere
where you don't think it's going to be.
And listen in for the drum beat of the song because that really accents where that rhythm
is and it pushes in a very cool way.
And when you're locked into that rhythm, it's a great feeling.
So do a slow down, 1, 2, 3, [A] 4, and up to speed.
[E] Right on folks, thanks so much for watching this video on the Ticket to Ride intro.
