Tim needs to start a metal school 🤘🏾
-
Its wild to hear this guy talk. I imagined him as some silent monk who only communicates through shredding
-
I really like the fact that Tim never seemed condescending, nor did he he give an over complicated answer. Great answers, Tim.
-
I am genuinely shocked at how well of a teacher he is for a 15 minute interview. This is bonkers
-
Guitarists always give John Mayer his props. Awesome stuff tim!
-
I love how much tim just genuinely wants to be helpful. Dude seems so chill
-
Perfect answer of what makes a good solo, “if you can sing it” never heard someone give that perfect an answer before. Well done young man
-
Clicked because dude looks majestic, stayed because he’s so chill and knows how to explain simply
-
I don’t know who Tim Henson is, I just clicked because his tats look sick. But watching him break down how he wrote “Playing God” is one of the most interesting guitar clips I’ve ever seen. He makes each stepping stone seem simple, but the resulting sound is SO complex
-
Go Tim, awesome job!
-
“I’m gonna play a riff quick” uses entire fretboard this dude is a legend
-
Tim has the chillest vibe in front of the camera. No clue what he's like irl, but his vibe is very calming when he does stuff like this.
-
I like how he breaks down Playing God in great detail, plays the main riff flawlessly and then just stares expressionless at the camera like "yeah, whatever".
-
4:50 this man just casually played the most beautiful riff ive ever heard like it was nothing
-
I love how tim explains something, walks us throuh it, then sheds his instrument apart without batting an eye
-
If you don't know guitar, just know that even skilled guitarists stare at this man with jaws dropped to the floor.
-
The fact that Tim Henson cited John Mayers neon as a difficult song is just awesome. They’re nothing like each other but they can appreciate each other. True musicians
-
Tim is a great guitar teacher! He can not only explain the theories behind the different ways of playing a guitar, but he can play each one very well. Presenting a great visual and audio presentation.
-
He's like a philosopher on guitars and music. Respect tim
-
Not only he's a guitar god, but is also really good at explaining stuff
