You are the best teacher in the whole KZfaq channel. Love from India.

Watched this after setting down my guitar in frustration. Maybe the inspiration I needed to get over the hump. Nice vid!

I been playing guitar a long time, and that helped clear some things up. Great lesson 🤘

Thank you for these reminders! Very helpful.

he's back! man you single handily have had the biggest impact on my guitar playing journey. Thank you so much for all that you do

Yep you are an awesome guitar teacher I've been playing for many years and I know many different techniques but the way you go about explaining things just totally clicks with me. I learn more with you than I have with others by far thanks for doing what you do.

God used YOU so much in my life to help better my skill level on this wonderful instrument. I wanted to shred like a master since I was 13 years old and had no idea how to get there. You speak well and so I listened. In 2 years of believing what have said I have to push the brakes now. ⚡️ thank you so much bro I love you. Be blessed always

You have always been my favorite guitar channel I just wanna say thank you. We both have the same desire to just be a complete master of the instrument. Guitar is truly a gift to humans I feel not everyone understands but we do 🤘🙏

Love your lessons and the couple of courses I’ve already done… cheers Claus!

Thank god BB King stayed away from all the shredding and became one of a kind lol….cool video again Claus 👍..cheers from Odense 😉

Brilliant video!!! It took me 30 years to begin to understand these ideas and then another 10 to really start to put them into practice (I’m forever a students of guitar).

Great Video! So many skills to learn, so little time. Thanks for helping to streamline learning to play.

Really in-depth look at the roots of all our problems. Thanks, i got a lot out of this

Great video. Thank you!

Your an excellent instructor,I must say I do like your playing style,approach. Keep up all your great work my man.

Thank you, that was such a game changer.

Excellent information. You’re a great communicator

Great Info !!!!!!! Thank you!!!

This was a great lesson! 👍

It amazes me how guitar lessons and wisdom resonates with life lessons... loved your explanations.

Thank you sir!

By simply his free content on KZfaq Claus Levin has taught me to improvise which, until July 2021 (first time I watch a video on his channel) I thought I could never accomplish. I believed I was an intermediate frozen forever at the level I could only memorize little by little a tab. Now on whatever backing track I download I can play along without ever stopping for 10, 15 or 20 minutes, and that soon, without any preparation. I had never believed I could do this, and I credit 100% Claus Levin for making this possible. Thank you so much Claus.

Good breakdown of mindhacks for the guitar player and other musicians. Gratzi!

I've been a student of Claus for 3 years and I still laugh when he makes the fart noises

Outstanding!

This makes so much sense. And if you are clear about what you are practicing, then you can eventually move effortlessly between phrasing with shred integrated into it.

I’m a beginner and I find these tips useful. 🍻 Subbed.

U realy are a master !!! Thanks

Most way epic excellence broja!!

Oh my god, Magical Klaus uploaded!

Great lesson dude

You are such a master teacher it should be a golden rule to set at your feet and listen to what you have to say.

Amazing colour on that guitar

"People with talent make the worst teachers..." so true. That's why I'm a kickass teacher.

Great video👌

My brain doesn’t work. That’s my problem.

Is there a subscription available to access the courses? I don't have the $ to buy them all individually.

Accuracy breeds speed.

Funny told, but a real story. I am a not "that fast" player, but I enjoy playing....... and that is probably the most common key.😉 Thnx for promo the way we should do this training....I will be trying again. 😁👍🏻

Breaking it down without an overly long explanation … fluid picking movement not choppy. Economy of motion.

Never thought of this but my speed is never increasing for a reason... now NOW I see.

Musicians! Learn tunes schedule practice time use a metronome take lessons and suggestions such as this post as this teacher is excellent for improving your ability with your instrument. Try to remember, Rome was not built in a day.

Great stuff. What model and colour is your Charvel?

strange to see you without guitar stand. more relaxed though..

주말잘보내세요 ㅋ

Thank you for the good lecture. I'm a foreigner, so I refer to the caption below to watch your lecture. So I ask for two things. Leave the space empty for subtitles. Your hands and guitar are covered in the caption. And please speak a little slowly to increase the accuracy of the subtitles. Thank you.

🤟🏻

Bro, you straight up look like a German Brad Pitt..

I think it should be obvious to any of us that speed = smaller movements and thus we should practice in smaller movements. Unfortunately, it doesn't come intuitively to everyone.

So what is the number one biggest mistake people make when practicing ?

BB Kings style had zero to do with speed. It was based on talking. With big spaces, small phrases.

So basically, practice does NOT make perfect. PERFECT PRACTICE makes perfect.

You are really a motivated and good explaination teacher!! But i fucked up 😫😫

Juan Claude Van Dam

Any suggestions for us fingerpickers ?

If BB was a fast shredder, he would probably not be as popular today. But if you want to be fast, do what Claus says.

That comment about BB king was so wrong ……☮️

This WILL come naturally with speed.

I am subscribed to dozens of guitar teachers and have been here on KZfaq for years but tonight is the first time this channel showed up for me to watch. I curious as to why that is, you have lots of subscribers. Are you banging someone at googles girlfriends and they are hiding you?:) Anyway just want to say I’ve watched two of your videos so far an I’m really impressed, perfect for where I am in my learning process. I liked, I subscribed and I thank you.

So what about teachers that tell you not to worry about how you sound as a beginner? just learn the basics, and eventually your playing will clean itself up. Or should precision be paramount from the start? Just a curious beginner.

No one wants to be a shredder. It stands for something unwanted. It evokes imagery of misunderstood underdog genius person although without the genius. In search of numbing the non existent aesthetic loss of the spirit, a quest comparable to pursuing a figure skating career without seeing the unmarked water gone frozen, right beneath them, awaiting a landing never finalized. Devour the things we can’t explain, put them on paper and sign it with your soul. BB King’s enlightened. Makes a world feel comfort and sanity. Shredding doesn’t heal the world . Doesn’t make you rich. Don’t get you far with the ladies. That said, good technique And eloquent sensibility and a heart on your sleeve: Hell yeah. It must be in the right order. Otherwise good video!

Not everyone wants to be a shredder, or just play fast. The BB King comment was very misplaced.

But.... Why didn't u turn off the delay? 🤔 Good lesson though. BB was not interested in playing fast at all, and that's quite alright.

Really in the last year of using this and many other tutorials has elevated my approach to the guitar. Always inspired by these cats.Then there's Tim Henson,a once in a lifetime talent.Its his approach. He IS changing the way we play too.Lester Polfus,Johnny jimi Hendrix ",Van Halen,and now Tim Henson.Change the guitar completely.

So... what exactly is the biggest mistake? Not focusing on a single thing that's being practiced?

So he's saying just play quieter? I don't get it

You lost me at the BB King bit.

Hello. Thank you for your content. Your channel is very interesting. Your playing is cool. I just want to let you know that my Motherlland is beeng in pain from russian occupation agressor. Russian murderers is destroying whole cities, killing civil citizens, kids. I think this information needs to be extends across the world. Thank you fo understanding. Kharkiv. Ukraine.

BB King said far more with just one note than a shredder says with his thousands.

BB King didn't need to play fast Because his guitar playing was An expression of the human voice. Duh. So..... You obviously aren't A singer so your playing must Be an instrumental expression. Figure out which one you are. Most guitarists aren't singers So....... Instrumental expression.

Really admire your enthusiasm, but that has to be the worst sounding amp/guitar I have come across, fella.

You talk and talk and talk please can you actually show something I don’t get it How do you practice alternate picking again??? I want to see
