there is no secret formula......practice,practice,practice....the right stuff.......start early, be curious and check out all music,read,scales,standards,work,work,work.....am 57,started with 6 and have been practicing daily since the age of 16.......to this day, being a professional guitar player, producer,studio owner, my working day always starts with practicing....

Josh is a freaking monster. He was blessed with his father being a pro musician as his personal teacher and encouraging/inspiring him from such an early age, but man, not everybody could reach the level of this guy, who also seems to be a very down to earth man. I believe is only a matter of time for him to reach the level of recognition (tons of) he deserves.

Not sure. Thanks for asking. I’ve recently discovered you when I came across your breakdown of Matteo’s Giant Steps solo. I’m a new subscriber to your channel. I look forward to getting to know you better

Imagine having a dad like he has. I don't know this man, and I don't know what kind of human he is (his dad) but one thing comes to my mind: dedication! I mean that would be (probably) coolest thing that could happen to me when I was a little boy. I liked music and playing with my father who would teach me that would meant a world to me. Unfortunately my father didn't care and I was always a shy person and a thought of me playing for someone brought panic attacks on me. Young boys need role-models, someone who they can look up to and that's a father's "job" in my opinion. I know mother can be inspirational also but ... it's a different kind of bond with your mother. Josh is an inspiration now for me. He could probably do it by himself but this is a whole other world to have someone that will give you this push in a life (especially when you start to grow up). Josh deserves all the best but I think his father did a great job and deserves a recognition.

His superb left hand! I think it is very important to be able to lie the fore finger down on its edge, finger curved. This gives the ability to be able to spread the hand span nice and wide. I see it in all the great players today.

Professional athletes in the U.S, as well as around the globe, should take a lesson in humility and decorum from young artists at the very top of their game(s) like this young man and Matteo Mancuso, among others, and apply it to their pre and post game interviews. These young men let their music do the talking (in a HUGE way) and appear genuinely appreciative that others recognize their unbelievable talent and enjoy their playing. Very refreshing. Maybe their is actually hope for the youth of today.

Very awesome and informative interview! I think my favorite part is the look on Josh's face when he is asked to respond to guitarists who seek his level of skill right after an entire interview detailing his dedication and lifetime of study to guitar. His level of skill isn't just talent, it's dedication, and I think the best take away is that with discipline and dedication anyone can make significant improvements to their playing. That being said, I know the vast majority will never reach his level of skill. The man is a savant.

It’s mandatory for every musician. Also please subscribe to the channel as I’m sure you’ll like what’s coming up next…

Great and Fantastic Guitar Playing and may I say that it’s in the left hand. most people have strong right hand fingers but lazy and weak left hand fingers notice that picking with the right hand is minimal but the left hand is 10 times faster than the right hand picking. I wish the interviewer realize that and include it in the interview to remove the secrecy and demystify the technique. Thank You

I switched to left handed after losing the index finger on my left fretting hand ,it's been years now and the left former fretting hand is doing great alternate picking and right former picking hand is doing high speed hammer ons and showing great dexterity so it's all subjective, the brain is proof God is real.

How to become a virtuoso? Have your virtuoso dad give you lessons 1 hour a day for seven years for starters. I'm not hating, but its true. Just look at Mozart and Brahms. It's an advantage. If your kid enjoys music, show them the ways.

This guy truly is amazing, and I was sure he'd started at a very young age. I'd say it's almost impossible to reach that level of facility playing such demanding music if you start after adolescence has kicked in.

Well… First of all thank you so much for watching! I can’t tell you how much I appreciate it. Second of all, I would almost beg to differ with you. Why? Check out #Shorts videos. That would be a quick way to check out what I have done with my technique. I totally revamped it! I could not even come close to doing any of the shredding stuff. I’m considerably older than Josh. If you put forth the hours and you have a game plan, mentor, and a technique that you know has been pressure tested… You can indeed gain an incredibly high level of facility. If I practiced as much as Josh, there’s no doubt in my mind that I would be able to play with that facility, As I can already play very fast. And I was never able to do anything like that. You might also want to check out my, “some skunk funk” transcription. Let that be proof an inspiration to you that yes you can indeed dramatically and drastically improve your technical facility.

@@streetwiseguitar5113 Thanks for the video! I've been following this guy lately. Him and Matteo Mancuso might have two of the best techniques I've seen in my life. That being said, I beg to differ to your differ ; ) I know it's possible to practice really hard and properly (key word) and achieve an excellent level (I play multiple instruments and have learned them at different times in my life -- I used to be able to shred pretty decently on guitar), but there's a certain facility that people who started very young have. I've seen it over and over. I seriously doubt there are many concert violinists or pianists who started after the age of ten (it'd be interesting to do the research). Maybe what I'm talking about is a very subtle difference, but it's there. It's the ease of playing extremely challenging music and being able to add nuances at a minute level, all while making it look effortless. But maybe I'm just suffering from confirmation bias. It's possible. Luckily, for most of us, music isn't a competition. Cheers!

I never could get consistent clean playing and playing fast on three notes per string. I finally gave up realizing the pick gets trapped and messes me up no matter how many years worked on it. I finally figured out to hammer or pull off the last note. My speed went through the roof for the first time in my life. My friends were like how did you get so fast all of a sudden. I thought I was so smart after years and having the idea to play that way. I wasnt as smart as I thought lol.

Zoom sucks. Well maybe I should rephrase that because I don’t have the premium zoom. The one that everybody uses records at a very measly 680 P. If you combine that with an iSight camera from Apple it’s just a total mess. What Josh and I did was we both used our own cameras and he sent me his files and I put it together. Some people who don’t have a camera means that we are relegated to using zoom. If you look at my video of me and Aubrey king (my most recent interview), you can see that that’s what we did and it looks really good. Thank you for liking the video. I hope you subscribe to the channel as I have a new interview coming up tomorrow. Not to mention some instructions which I need to get back to doing. Thanks for supporting!
