The greenies thought the world was going to end and then we got flooded, lol.

In 2021 they're not even allowed to see the sun anymore

Frankie Boots do you like a super stiff pick up for metal playing?

HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH WHAT A COINCIDENCE

I'm something of a james hetfield fan myself

Google Starbucks You misspelled “you’re”. 😉

Google Starbucks your and you’re are quite different though

I agree.

j hay day

Next step would be Disposable heroes

@@olli.tiainen and next step would be Battery

@@kaankarapolat5162 maybe true, for me battery was actually easier when I started guitar

I too love Avantasia. You should also try "Don't Hide Your Eyes" by Axenstar.

Yeah, same thing just doesn't start with a 1/8 note

Thank you both for this, really helped it clear up for me

DBZ Halcyon. Made in Korea, designed by Dean Zelinsky.

Thank you for asking, I was wondering the same thing!!!

Lots of great techniques in that tune.

Now that I read that Im with Thor

I use Ultex Hetfield Blackfangs 1.14

For faster tempos, you have to; it sounds better, anyway.

Gemini Guitar Ok cool I’ll keep practicing the down up down down, thanks for the reply!

nevertheless too late but you were right

Whatever works for you is fine.

Corey Hunter Great, thanks for your reply.

I think it has to do with sticking with the groove and people usually "feel" the gallop better when doing it down-up-down down-up-down way. That's because in between the first picks of each group of three you're missing exactly one up-pick, so if you keep moving your picking hand in a constant D-U-D-U-D-U motion, you just omit every second up-pick and you've got a gallop. It just feels more natural i guess. Just my 5 cents.

Timing, it's easier for most when playing an 1/8 and 2-1/16 to strum D-U-D because it is a natural pause caused by the technicality of the move... There are much fewer people that have the timing skills to include the "pause" between the last 1/16 and the start of the 1/8th note... If I alternate my picking, I have to mentally include that "pause" which is harder to do, and impossible for most beginners... Besides, alternate picking would have you either skip your up stroke, or create the pause yourself, and the D-U-D method generates the pause for you... It's great IF you have that timing ability, but many lack the advanced timing skills it would take to create the pause under an alternate picking scenario, so the short answer would be "it's easier for beginners"...

Its done that way because your down stroke is naturally more stacatto that your up stroke. It gives the rythem its sound. Unless you specifically work on it your up stroke dose not sound like your down.

A bar just divides the piece of music. Most music has four beats per bar. 8th notes are worth half a beat and 16th notes are worth a quarter of a beat.

i don't use amps. The guitar is a DBZ Halcyon. See 'My Sound & Setup' link below the video.

That means you need to tighten the motion of the pick so that it doesn't travel beyond the bottom of the string you're picking.

Angling the pick helps. Also make sure you're using a heavy pick and your strings are fresh.

It takes a lot of time, patience and practice. Slow it down, get conscious of excessive tension and release it before proceeding to faster speeds.

@@CoreyHunter Well... It's not like I can go to work instead. 😅 I'll keep at it.

dbz halcyon

Lol, same

I heard Paranoid

.10-46.

Unlikely I ever will since my hands and arms don't like any fast, technical stuff these days. I'd search google. Some of those guys in bands might give skype lessons in that style.

I hear that. Thanks Corey!

Most products I sell contain backing tracks. Visit the download store to check them out; there's a page for each product with details of what each pack contains.

I feel you! It's so frustrating finding something so "simple" yet so complicated.

I would've been using a TonePort at this time with the bundled Gearbox software. The preset would've been either Angel P-Ball, Metal Man or Diamond Plate. I now use Aurora's Rhino VST, Helix Native or Line 6 Metallurgy VST suite.

just count in your head 123 123 123 123 as you pick then youll get it

Grey Area He says it at the start of every video lol.

Im from newcastle,im down for lessons

@@greyarea6739 Australia don't exists ,you are all actors lol

It shouldn't if the guitar has been set up properly for the string gauge you are using.

Star Lord You still having trouble with this?

I use 1.2mm Dunlop Jazz III's. The pick's hardness makes it much easier to push through the strings. Since it's a Jazz 3, it's very pointy which allows for more precise and faster picking. When you're picking, I just using edge picking, it's not hard and I'm pretty sure you already do it by what I read in your comment, it's not a difficult technique, and almost everyone does it naturally to some extent. You want the edge of your pick to be parallel to the string, but not too much, also make sure you aren't picking flat against the strings, it gives more resistance to the pick, unlike edge picking. As for your palm, I usually keep it close enough to the bridge before the point where my palm won't mute the strings. Basically, don't pick too close to the neck, but dont pick too close to the bridge. You'll find a sweet spot where you'll find no resistence or wacky tone. Hope this helps.

Interesting, I'll experiment with some thicker pick varieties. Thanks for your advice on the details. I'll give this some tries!

@@thereasonableamericans411 I had been struggling with the galloping rythm for 2 months using regular strumming picks. After switching to jazz picks it was like a night and day difference. I highly recommend them if you wanna play metal

Hetfield Blackfang 1.14.

I use a Line 6 TonePort UX-1.

Yes.

DBZ Halcyon.

Everybody is different. I don't increase the angle though. It's always about 30 degrees.

Gemini Guitar okay with you saying that I think I go from 45 degrees to 30 when speeding up. Thank you for the clarity

Hadn't heard them until now. Very good playing. Honestly, much better than Dragonforce.

@@CoreyHunter Glad you enjoyed. Here's one of their songs influenced by Slayer. Enjoy. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/a7aTY7t8ldKynYk.html

@@CoreyHunter As a guitarist, think you'll appreciate this song by them, Signs of Deliverance. There's harmonizing solos than there's this...oh and it's live for God's sake (no room for error). kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pZyficl039jZeIU.html Watch for the lights to turn red.

@@CoreyHunter Not sure if you're still exploring Lovebites but here's another amazing one by them kzfaq.info/get/bejne/d8too7SH2pO2fmw.html. Has that 80s metal sound to open then something special happens mid-way through, well and then they just blow the top off. Midori's solo...making that guitar squeal is just precious! They are absolutely lightning in a bottle for a heavy metal band and be able to do this. Enjoy!

oh no thank you for the feedback Asian man

Much talks to me; we go back a long way.

^ Brilliant mate! 🍻
