Love 5’s first note picked legato for the other 4

That burst practice tip will be the golden egg for some people. That was exactly how I learned to play the intro to Cowboys from Hell, learn it as 3 parts, (1-4 twice on top string was part 1. 1 on A string and 4 on E twice was part 2, and 1-A, 4-E, 2-A, 4-E was part 3.) And I played until I could do each part isolated at quite a bit faster than the actual song, and once I had those down, put them all together at the tempo of the actual song, which was technically slower then what I could play them isolated. It's a super useful way to do it in my experience.

Great post! The licks are great. I’ve never had a name for it, but I use the speed bursts regularly. Even just trying to attach a shift from one position to another. Pick the 4 notes and nail the shift. Then work on the next four or whatever. Great technique

@fulltimeguitar

6 ай бұрын

Awesome! for me, if i play the first note from the next beat, it helps putting the positions together. then i like to put together 2 beats at a time, and keep increasing the length of what im playing until i have the whole lick. like i said, full video on this coming soon :D

Thank you for the exercise for increasing speed. Speed bursts are something I've tried and heard of. But most of the time when I try to improve my picking speed, I'm mainly practicing riffs/ solos or songs a lot slower. Whereas I have seen quite a few lessons explaining that you actually need to push yourself past what is comfortble ( within reason) to actually speed up when you reach a certain level. I don't want to be stuck around 110 / 120 bpm for all of time. Excellent video, thank you for the tabs and for explaining everything so clearly. I appreciate that you give tabs for free and don't ask me to join or sign up to anything. I'll be subscribing ! Anyway , this is an incredible lesson to make for free. I hope your channel continues to grow, you deserve it! :)

As a few people said, PG picks everything and is a master picker. This is more a hybrid between picking and legato. But it’s still good. I prefer to pick everything if I can.

I remember buying RacerX first album 1986? - i was like ok he's my age let's hear it. Fffkk. And then later seeing them live in LA. I was a already a minted YW freak a few years before RacerX, and after the last decade of Ulis and MSG and Iommi, VH and Blackmores. I literally hated PGs tone. Hated it. And i didn't even understand what tone was, but i hated it. Live it was shrinking piercing pain. Great player though i kinda leaned Bulliet, but my accolades go to PG for being the most humble gracious and effective teacher. I had all those VHS, or copied them from friends. It made me a fan of him as a musician and as a person way more than anything. Saw Mr Big open for Rush a decade later por something, people were throwing sht at him ( at a Rush headline show..lol what) But you know what. He smiled dodged and quite literally shredded as Mr Paul Gilbert can do ( better tone too ) :)

Tired is good. Do it again next day as long as you can and you go a bit longer. Next day longer and soon BAM all day. Fingers are weird - you MUST put the time in but you DO notice real soon like next day when you put the time in. I do p-offs with ring and pinky now - and those 2 fingers couldn't do SH*T before I decided to try - 1st day nada, 2nd day got about 3 clean reps, next day about 6 good p-offs and all of a sudden the easy fingers 1st, 2nd and middle could do pull offs a lot faster and stronger and the "dumb" fingers felt like newborn damn fingers in about a week. Like gaining 2 new weapons 40% more fingers. The thing is to just do it for a couple days and you FEEL the diff right away. The pinky could literally only do ONE weak ass pull off first day - would've given up but next day the damn thing did like 3 so on we went !!!

@fulltimeguitar

6 ай бұрын

first off, thanks for watching! There is a lot of reasons why our notes might sound different. But for getting nice clean hammers and Pull-offs, a great exercise is just to trill between different combinations of fingers. my video with randy Rhodes on the thumbnail shows this. and your endurance and efficiency will improve over time :)

So? It's the same thing just with different technique. Legato/economy picking is a good skill to have.
