The best part of this video for me is that now after learning so much from all your other videos, I am slowly seeing the fretboard in a much deeper aspect than ever before. Even just being able to identify the actual notes you’re playing by sight is such a huge thing for me. Something so simple but yet so much of a revelation for me. Your videos are most definitely the best on the net. And I am discovering that watching them as a whole is whole is so important. Thank you.

Most things are so simple when you don't complicate them. Learning at slow speeds is absolutely incredible for muscle memory and clarity. Thanks, Steve. 3 yrs, now as a Zoomer and loving it just like day 1 at Theory for Life/Masterclass.

Thanks for the kind words, Dennis! :-) Just wanted to let you know, Steve’s holding a free webinar tomorrow (Tuesday, June 15th) at 5 PM Pacific called 5 Music Theory Shortcuts Every Guitarist Should Know. In the webinar, you’ll discover: -- 4 essential chords you need to know to play 90% of popular songs so you’ll never have to look up tabs -- 1 easy way to use the major scale to find ANY chord on the fretboard. -- 1 simple tip to memorize all the notes. -- How to choose the right scale for your solos so you can improvise over any song across the fretboard. The webinar is NOT on KZfaq. If you want to join, go here to get registered: guitarzoom.com/musictheorymadeeasy20/webinar/registration/ ...and hurry, because spots are limited. :-) Hope to see you at the webinar! -- Mike from GuitarZoom

I realized something useful to me: I must reach a certain speed to really start to practice the picking movement that I need, because the forearm/wrist/fingers' movement changes with the speed.

I’ve been trying to increase picking speed for years with no progress until I learned to anchor my picking hand on the bridge. Once I did that I was able to properly move my wrist instead of my arm, wrist, and thumb. My speed increased immediately and is improving weekly.

A great tutorial that actually help me playing solo in my acoustic even tho my guitar strings are far from the fretboard, then i figured out that my acoustic doesn't shows anything that i can able to adjust its trust rod, i just bought it very cheap just so i can practice, maybe one day I'll buy an electric guitar and i think Ibanez, Esp, jackson guitars are looks and sounds great, and I may like the sound of gibson and fender but it may look so old and classical for me but yeah I think im gonna stick what new guitar models where every guitar players buy a guitar nowadays , but this tutorial works fine for me, btw.. What kind of shirt are you wearing? I'm kinda interested, it looks really cool, i hope you'll tell me :D

Steve, I've always been a huge fan of your tutorials and I've been subscribed to GZ for many years however, I ended up doing some time. Guitars were non existent for the past 2 years nor was anything else due to covid. Playing the guitar is not like riding a bicycle. I lost a lot. But thanks to you and your tutorials, I'm getting the feeling and the motivation again to pursue my love... "Metal!" and that I thank you for.

I guess I'm just an inside picker. I've never done strict alternate really. I just move right into a downstroke on the 4th note and come right back up with an upstroke. But I'm practicing alternate, though it seems an extra movement. (Edit- I typed that before watching the whole video. )

i'm new to this channel and enjoy your approach. do you have any instruction on what to do when you hit a speed wall? i am happy to practice these patterns but there is limit to the speed i can play and i have never gotten past it. i've played guitar for years

@Guitarzoom Жыл бұрын

It's very common to run into this kind of barriers. Use a metronome to figure out your top speed and then push it just a couple of beats. It won't sound as clean as you want it to but stick with the new speed for the time necessary until the notes sound nice and clean. From there raise the metronome once again and repeat the process. Always remember to warm up before you start your practice and keep in mind that not every day will be the same. Some days will be easier and others more difficult but keep it up and things will start to flow. Also try to stay as relaxed as possible and keep the movement of the pick as small as possible. You can also try different size picks as well as different materials. A thicker pick will make it easier than a thin one because the thin pick won't respond as fast as a thicker one. Hope this helps!
