Zelda is peak

I love GoT!

Idk yet how well you play, im suspecting STRONG, but you are amazing TEACHER ALSO

Goth fan here

When you improvise, play every licks 3 or 4 times in a row. It will improve your technique and you will find better ideas for the next phrase.

"Play with other people" Laughs in introvert

Paint dry and grass grow! lol comedic gold. Excellent video!

5 or 6 times a week? Yeah if you’re a teenager with no job. Or did you meant to say 5 or 6 hours a week? THAT’S efficient enough for me since i work midnight.

Tried your timing exercise and realized how bad my timing was (which is depressing given how much DJing and beat counting I've done in my life) but with just like 15 min of practicing I'm already getting better. It's really invigorating to start something new and see yourself getting better. Thank you!

i cant jam with other people i have no freinds

Hear paint dry and grass grow!

You need 10.000 hours of playing :)

Thank you very much bro. 💗🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏💗

Wow. Every piece of information I needed was cramped in all at once and it was also entertaining to watch. The first few seconds of watching the video made me subscribe right way Lolol . Cool video overall 👍

When anyone asks me to play any song, I just play some AC/DC song, because everyone knows them.

Man try not cry

My 5 yr old strat is the 3rd one I’ve owned it was the first full size electric and my only

Playing with someone better is fair and away the best way to get better faster. But it’s also difficult for people like me who has no close Musician friends. I had a 6 month period of time when I had a close friend to play with and it is still the fastest growth I’ve made. It’s snail pace grinding these days.

I really really liked your advice here. Best general practice advice I’ve heard yet

Rest, two days of no playing won't kill you. I struggle with this myself the thing is I can't stop playing, it became a routine.

Great video. Thank you

Thanks for the tips sir gonna try them

I just started up again and this time I'm not gunna give up hopefully trying to do simple first. I tried learning the notes of shine on you crazy diamond and I stopped and moved to something simpler it's hard but I think I'm gunna get better.

use less

thank you

I’m roughly intermediate or just getting there. The metronome is a very important tool

Very insightful, thanks
Btw👇






God LOVES YOU so MUCH that He sent His only son to die In YOUR PLACE so you won't have to die under Gods judgement but live forever IF you fully trust in Jesus. Please repent from thinking wickedness🙏🙏🙏

A few pieces of advice that I've learned, some of them don't really fit in a technique video but I'd give them away for free to anyone who'd care to listen:
1. I've been playing for a little less than a year and a half. I started at 37. 37 years old. Seriously. I'm 39 now. Playing in church, and I love it. Piece of advice number one? To paraphrase a Chinese Proverb, the best time to start was 20+ years ago. The second best time to start is now.
2. Find something you enjoy hearing that is slightly above your skill level. Play up, not down, if you want to grow. I started with the opening riff to Long Cool Woman. Fun, achievable, and I keep coming back to it.
3. Find something you enjoy hearing/playing that you can reliably come back to and play well, so that when you're frustrated at the difficulty of learning something new you can relieve the tension by playing something that you know you can play well.
4. Bonus: have fun. It's called playing guitar, not working guitar. Play. Not that it's all fun all the time, but it should be a net fun experience. If it isn't then you're probably pushing yourself too hard and need to relax a bit before you burn out.

I'm kind of scared of learning songs because I know how horrible I'm at guitar and that learning songs will only get me more frustrated and disappointed. I prefer to stay on the same steady ground with my daily exercises although I know it won't get me much further in my playing.

I think this is some really great advice thank you so much!

“Hear paint dry and grass grow” 😂😁 that was good one 👍🏻

10 ways I'd be lucky just to get the one way right

I’m in band and play a lot of other instruments, including the saxophone in a band. I know how intervals work and we work a lot with ear training, but to get better at the guitar it really doesn’t matter how much you already know. Review it if you need to, and learn more. Trust me it helps when you figure out the fretboards notes

Me: Happy birthday to you...

My friend: Jason Becker - Perpetual Burn

🥲

Excellent T you. SubscrIbed

But... but.... that sounds like work...😒

Im Bad😢.

I bought my guitar a couple days ago and I felt like a absolute god when I was trying to play the opening solo sounding part from bat out of hell and I realized that at one part where tthere is a note and the next note is just one down on the fret board on the same string and I could (I also think it is how it is done in the song) just bend the string to take it to that next note.

Great tips! Thank you very much, I will try to apply them more to my everyday routine. What I wanted to ask, and I would be happy if anyone could answer is: I have this problem with learning songs now. I wanted to know where to find relatively easy arrangements, which would effective to learn at my very beginner level, when I barely know 2-3 scales, around 15 basic chords, and few easy techniques? Sadly, every songs which I love are looking really hard even written in tabs. And in beginner books songs are not very interesting. I would like to find some list of nice songs, which relatively difficult, but still doable for beginners... I've been learning slowly for year now, maybe, and I feel like my motivation today slowly fades out with every week. Probably it's because I'm very bad at understanding how to play written music, and it's hard to find something adequate to my current abilities.

I bought a guitar a while back and I just couldnt understand the the guidebook so I gave up on it but Ive been learning more about music theory and about the piano that I decided to give it another try and surely enough understood it now and I had fun challenging myself tryna remember the different sequences of notes

This thread is probably dead but playing through mistakes is the FASTEST way to GET BETTER according to NEUROBIOLOGY.
Play through the piece, screwing up, but trying to do it right, as many times as you can for 10 minutes. Then put the guitar down and clear your mind for about 5 minutes. Then pick it back up and you will be AMAZED how much you have improved!

Then listen to the Andrew Huberman podcast about this topic and it will change how you think about practice forever.

as a drummer who plays guitar my timing is good.
