REALLY like how you went to that half-time version of the first lick. That's a nice way to let me practice it slowly at first but still get the right timing. Well done.

Finally! Someone teaching realistic licks that sound good and that mere mortals can grasp, learn and play! Some of these instructors on YT think we're all born natural shredders with hyper-synced right and left hands. Pipe dreams for most. Excellent teaching video, mate. Keep it coming!

I don't get they way he is doing lick 3 though. Why not roll on the 10th fret, instead of constantly switching between e and b strings. I find it awkward to play like that at high speed. (the picked version). Also, if your using the middle finder to hit the 12th fret g string, that should be killing the e and b strings, so why switch strings every time? Just seems to make it harder for no reason. Am I missing something?

@@paso193 Oh I tried. I just don't understand what in fuck he is doing with that lick. I can play it decent my own way. But I don't understand what in hell he is doing and why. Spent like 5 hours trying to figure it out lol. Why not bar and roll on 10th and use middle finger and ring finger to kill strings as you're reaching? It's infinitely easier than switching between e and b strings individually each time. I was just trying to understand the reason for playing it that way, as its so much harder, there must be a reason.

@@James-qu6ul ...........There's different ways to play almost any type of lick. I'd say if you can "play it decently your own way" - then, for you, that's the best route, period. I see what you're saying with rolling on the 10th & using middle finger, etc. It's just another way of hitting it. The key is sticking with what you feel comfortable with. The lick will sound much better than trying to force his route on your hands.

thanks James. I m very proud of finally getting my fingers tactile enough to do these type licks. I can on some efforts sound flawless and then sucks straw on other efforts. they say that's normal for motor skill.lessons.

Interestingly enough, after practicing your sets, I end up with the 5 note passages as follows. 12, 34, 5 12 34 5 just as you set up the 12 34 on two strings I just added the 5 on the top of the 3 and back to one. I thank you for allowing the practice public to gander your progressive licks and the opportunities to stylize them in such a wonderfull and easy progression. Even on an acoustic with heavy strings the 13 e string and the 17 b string bend wonderfully on the frets you use. simply outstanding. I do want your students to make hugh forward improvement as you have taught these. Simply an outstanding opportunity.

The process of learning this licks are very good, as long as you practice it in perfect form. Speed is demonstrated once you can perform the technical form of these without flaw in execution and tone variations. I found that on regular guitar, in to a normal amp with one gain pedal, Its ease of application is evident. But, on amps with high gain and pedals with high gain, that allow sustain to hold in large quantities of time. This is a process of real perfection to get the tones correct.

In the past several months, I ve carefully come to the realization that clear and clean, in reference to guitar notes and the value of audience, say more in silence than a herd of folks will say in a roaring saloon. So clean and crystal clean phrasing, no slop no mess and no loud drone or squeal lasting longer the a dot. James give all you have to the students that need to learn. And even more to those who want to learn. I feel better when I think that students do it right. So they can become the master of the stroke and leader of the pack. Enjoy your ears James, I always do when Listening to new lessons and new phrases not in the least bit does it matter how long or how fresh or how good. I love it all.

Hi there, the secret is to check you're muting any bass strings with your picking hand. Then check your fretting fingers are touching the strings either side of the one you are playing. If you're touching the string above the one you're bending it should not ring out. Takes a little practice but that's how it's done. Hope that's clear...if not ask me again. Cheers, James

James what about a 5 note triplet.... going 1 2 3 4 5 in a syncopated 5 ....I don't see it being done at all. But the modern speed metal has several variations to that staccato beat in the count up to 7 or 8. Filling a quick pace with a slow off center beat on the 3 and the 5.....I m not sure I m saying it right but I took one of the multi layered beats you gave us here and stepped out to the 5......but in a 4/4 or other even bar beat it doesn't set well. In the speed pace it fits because there in multi layered beats inside the pattern as a whole. I m asking if the 5 3 /2 is a normal pattern in modern mode.

it's not important.. you can use some others backingtrack in D position... type: rock backingtrack D (on youtube) and choose your prefer bpm backingtrack

I am truly amused now James, I ve been turned into a fret monsther....My 5 pattern turned into a 8, 9. and even a 10 note passage, repeated intervals on 3 strings. All because, you broke it to a single double, a double single and the variety of there to in different sring repeats. You ve created another eddie. or Joe, or something. Now to get it to the even and odd pattern beat. and the repeat string opportunity changing from one to three different strings. I hope you ve had a great day. I ve found note groove. thanks for taking me out of the 70s and skynyrd protocol.

James its I thanking you. There is much to be thankful for. That you do not do things in such a way as to confuse your audience is the best of the many opportunities you provide. Again, it is I thanking you.

Good stuff. No bullshit. No wank. Just licks. Tip of the hat, sir.

Hi there. I often do use my little finger for playing scales and licks, but not so much these blues/pentatonic kind of licks. I did used to do it that way until I noticed that a lot of players who sounded better than me weren't! I find it easier to stretch up with my 3rd finger lots of the times and fnd the licks sound more punchy, faster and easier to play! Thanks for watching, James
