Jumpin' Jack Flash: How to do the double stops
Posted by: Pokalheld ()
Date: July 21, 2022 21:16

Hi dear advanced guitar players of iorr. I would like to learn the double stops (I think, these are double stops?) Keith was playing for years on stage around the 1990s and 2000s. Unfortunately I am not able to figure it out on my own. Can you post me tabs, descriptions or Youtube-Tutorials, please? I am familiar with open G tuning and the rest of the song.

Here is an example from minute 2:51 to 2:57.

It sounds like Keith is doing this using the G and B strings, which is very common and cool sounding. The steps:

1. Put your first (index) finger on the B-string note you want to play.
2. Put your second and third fingers on the G-string, the second finger one fret higher than the B-string note played by your first finger, the third finger two frets higher.
3. Strum both strings at the same time and, while you are doing this, use your middle and third fingers to bend the G-string up so that it's the same (or almost) the same) note as on the B-string.

... You can then move your hand around the fret board doing this in a progression like Keith does.

Thanks a lot. I had been puzzling with the thin D-string without success. So, let's try the G-string instead smiling smiley
