@Philip Schlaepfer Actually he did it in 2 tries, he did not "nail it" in one. Why do you have to exaggerate about him, even for this little thing???? Pfff. Still however, it is not difficult at all, dont talk bs. Everybody can do it in first try some day or need 2-3 tries to do it in another day. He can do it ofcourse, I can do it, you can do it, anyone intermediate or better guitarist with a looper can do it.

Shawn Lane was the master of odd groupings. It's impossible to study him without a time-displacement modulator. That'll be invented when time travel is possible so you can go back and slow down his patterns.

GG is such a great teacher - his explanations are clear and he makes it sound so approachable. Of course, each GG lesson needs quite a lot of homework and practice, but I always want to get right into it after one of his lessons. I also love how he's so damned humble! This isn't the first lesson where he's said "I can't do that", and I think that he makes it ok to not be perfect and to be yourself. Superb teacher.

Honestly, I've never found a guitarist, or musician for that matter, that I thought truly came up to par with Lane. As you said, he was better than most people at several different instruments, and (in my mind) the single greatest guitarist who ever lived. I'm 18 and I first heard him a year ago, and I've been mesmerized ever since. I really regret that I never got to meet him! But enough of the drooling and praising.. xD R.I.P SHAWN. On a side note, Govan is a favorite of mine, as well. Lol

@KingTabor actually I can play fast (I mean, in a soloing frame) the 5-note g's, but the 7-note still are a problem to me. Not at lower speeds, where they can easily fall into some progressive grooves, like Rush or DT had taught us all. Thanks for the GINA hint, it helped!

@_ch1pset 11 жыл бұрын

I'm having fun with this in rhythm style licks/riffs. :) I like using the last method he talks about, keeping a 16th pulse, it's challenging and makes for intricate licks because of how it repeats in spots you don't expect. It sounds really nice, as I said, rhythmically.

@ExternalTooth 12 жыл бұрын

You're so right. Some of his solos sounded like randomly thrown together notes at first glance, but when you really pick them apart, you realize just how technically and musically talented he was. It's incredible.

@dennoow 11 жыл бұрын

Yeah I remember being completely blown away when hearing that song on "Up", Even more so when I saw it live! The ending of that song is absolutely genius as well. Peter Gabriel is a brilliant, brilliant composer! That vocal solo is exactly as a guitar should sound :)

@_ch1pset 12 жыл бұрын

i like the last approach he mentions, except i haven't yet tried 5 or 7 note groupings, but i've successfully been able to combine triplets and quadruplets using a sixteenth note pulse(play 4 sets of triplets and then one quadruplet and they are all sixteenth notes). Even though its a cliche, it still tricks you're sense of "on beat". I actually like this way of constructing licks and riffs, its tricky and challenging, if there's one thing I love, its a good challenge. plus it sounds cool.

@panamanian911 13 жыл бұрын

@pozereater they don't always apply with time signatures. When he played that Zappa riff, he squeezed 5 notes in a 16th note subdivision.

@L33tP1ckL 13 жыл бұрын

Guthrie is not only a great player, but as this lesson plainly shows, a pretty decent teacher as well. His intent, to have you break the often sour mold of 3 and 4 note groupings and ultimately, the horribly overused I IV V progression, will lend itself to expanding your improvisational abilities in a very clear, 'second nature' kind of a way.

Shawn Lane was definitely one of the best musicians-both technically and creatively to ever live, without a doubt in my mind. I'm only 15, but I've been a fan for a few years at this point, and he just blew my mind and it never quite recovered. Speaking from a non-Lane perspective though, Guthrie is one of the best guitarists alive and definitely one of the best at what he does - rock based fusion work. If I could have half the skill of Guthrie, I'd be better than 90% of the worlds guitarists.

@Superock1988 11 жыл бұрын

Yeah, I have one. In 2:06 he's playing the solo and tapping the tempo simultaneously. No loop pedal here...

@sIash90 13 жыл бұрын

that's a good lesson. I think I need to get familiar with odd groupings of notes because I'm not too fast of an alternate picker yet. Therefore I'm not confortable soloing at tempos between 120bpm and 150 bpm let's say. Because up to 120 I can use groups of 6 for fast runs and around 150 16th notes fit pretty good for fast passages in solos. But in between 16th notes sound too slow and groups of 6 are way too fast for me. groups of 5 might be the solution

Hard is telling when and if it is actually working, I mean knowing if one is playing actually 7 notes-a-time instead of 7.2, 7.78 or any other number, given the free nature of the method "OK, I have this nice Rhoads lick down, now I´m gonna speed it up by ... hmm.. 20%? No, must be 30%!...or..."
