How to Shred Like Buckethead Part 2... Coming to you bots soon!!! Also - feel free to pitch ANY questions and ideas for this video before its recorded.
@@skin4580 I saw an alternate video for the same lick that starts the hammer on/pull offs at 14-15-14-12 that felt a little more natural, for me anyway
Thank you so much for this video. Halloween is coming and I am dressing as Buckethead and I am going to play outside in the neighborhood and your lesson will help me perfect my soothsayer. This is the best video ever. All buckethead fans must like and watch this.
It takes a lot of practice... And coordination in your pinky and ring finger since those tend to be the weakest ones. And mainly just observe your picking, it has to be either all alternate picking, or you do a mix of some sort that works and just remember don't ever pick down or upstrokes consecutively that's usually were people get caught in there picking. As long as you have everything locked in you should have it down.
Definitely the best Buckethead tutorial I have seen yet. Thank you ! Did you pull all this from listening and watching his videos? Whatever...you nailed it !!
***** thanks man! and yeah when i was a lot younger i listened to massive amounts of Paul Gilbert and Buckethead which helped influencing me to figure out the pattern.
Straten Marshall Maybe I'll ask you about a Buckethead lick that has puzzled me for a while now. You're incredible on this BKD stuff so, here goes... It's a wild pentatonic lick repeated on the 1st and 2nd strings, probably tapped, but hard to see in the video: BUCKETHEAD Backyard Solo (Full Version). He blows it out at 13:57. It looks like he might have loaded the pick to his middle finger in order to tap. Any input ?
Yeah, That's some lick you got there... I'm working on it... I hope i'm able too do it soon. Thanks for Uploading, I put it in my favorites so I can get the motivation to work on it.
saw your comment on my video, very cool to see someone else that used pauls lessons and watching buckethead to get the lick figured out, btw you have your picking hand synced up much better than a ton of people playing buckethead's stuff, good shit A+ :)
Me encanta tu canal, tocas increiblemente!!!!! y me gusta que casi siempre tocas tonos en E menor (Soy fan de los tonos y escalas menores , sobre todo si son en E menor hasta S menor)
Its hard to find videos on that Buckethead lick, I'm really happy you uploaded this. Thanks for that. One question for you about the "short version" of the lick. Are you picking certain notes?..and hammering on the others? If so which ones?.....
I know that's a late reply, but check out Paul Gilberts old instruction on shredding, I think it's called "Serious rock" or something, it's from 1985 and has a nice intro and that lick is pretty much the first thing you learn there :) Enjoy!
That lick! You hit all the high points, but I don't know if you pointed out enough that it's very hammer-on/pull-off based. It's a variation on a Paul Gilbert lick. You can see other applications of that pattern in this Paul Gilbert video: paul gilbert string skips
I would really appreciate if you could show the picking pattern of the whole lick and also the picking and the note secuence when changing from one pattern to another, going downwards the scale. Take care!
Can you show the picking of this lick. Kind of hard to get up to speed without knowing when to alternate pick or hammer on and pull off. Would be greatly appreciated
How did you learn to practice your coordination on all of your fingers? I’ve been playing for 1-2 years now, I’m still a beginner but I’m decent at playing. Im only good with 3 fingers kind of, can do slashy stuff. My pinky and ring finger is not great.
In order to write the tabs for this I put the speed at 0.5 You should do the same and wait for him to talk lol P.S.Thank you for sharing this, Straten Marshall
I've had these licks down for a while, glad to see someone step up and do a video lesson on something other than his tapping licks. I posted a tab on the Buckethead forums with a bunch of his licks. Anyways, how are you muting the b string when you switch to the high e? Are you muting it with your right hand or just the tip of the left index finger?
cool dude! i honestly just play i don't give it much thought, mainly improvising to see what comes out. but if i gave it thought i guess its just mainly finger tone with slight muting!
I am in a swathe of emotion. Nah ! I'm just jealous that I can't do it. Good technical robot playing though !. Keep it up and hope that your batteries don't run out !. :).
Yo man you play it as clean as buckethead. Nice work! I think a lot of people would find it helpful if you showed the picking hand and went through it note by note slowly. I can play this too but I have problems keeping it going because my right hand starts doing strange things.you should make a video playing the studio version of nottingham lace note for note. I think you could do it. Do you write your own songs?
Zickity Z thanks man. and i dont really play any solos note for note anymore its always improvised. but yeah im releasing an album this summer that im currently finishing up writing and recording.
Man, thanks so much. Are there any videos by Paul that cover that picking technique or can you do one. I could really see exactly how you were holding it. If there is, can you drop a link. Thanks, Man, I'm going to start practicing this lick a lot.
hey man thanks for the lesson. when you play that extended riff, and are headed back up the scale, Do you do mostly hammer ons for the 3 note ascending groups or alternate pick it? good stuff
Guitarists like Buckethead and you are so lucky because your pinkie is als long as your other fingers...mine his half the size and you can't believe how hard that sucks
Wowowowowowow wow wow wow!!! You are pretty good man! And you have a Gibson Les Paul Buckethead signature! This guitar is V.E.R.Y expensive here in Brazil (R$17.300). I can't have one...
thanks dude i think you helped me alot with technical dificulties.. does he always use that hammeron then pick next 3 picking technique throughe the whole song ?
dunos mafos Well at the time i was playing this kind of stuff, (2008-09) i was already learning 3 note per string scales which i really liked and practiced a lot to the point that they were all clean, this lick kinda followed through naturally because i was already doing these similar techniques, so it really didn't take long at all.
Masato Lee Simple exercises on the high E string using mainly your ring and pinky fingers, build up strength in those fingers and you can get this lick down in no time.

Damn son, you're going places....
Yeah to jail lol
Christian Esposito what?
awesome, that's such an iconic buckethead lick. you play it really well, you're a great player!
Yeah great lesson but it would be useful to know the picking pattern!
Watch Paul Gilbert picking lessons. He taught Buckethead. Combine that technique with this and you got it.
@@Hugs_4_Bugs_ Genius!
Thanks for posting this video man. You really got me into the shred part of the guitar. It got me off of only playing blues scales and Dorian mode
Fast and clean. Puttin in work!

Le Chris Zoupa army is here! Nice shredding, bro!
Aldous Abad Thanks dude, Chris is the man!
I thought I was a shredder, but you qualify to play right next to Buckethead himself

Awesome video! Very clean playing as well
That first lick is such a tasty Paul Gilbert thing. I love hearing his influence shine through with Buckethead.
For years I thought Gilbert WAS Buckethead.....still do.
To bad. Its impossible
That lick!

WOW! you solo like Buckethead the best on youtube!
ZOUPA SENT ME!!! Awesome shredding bro
david alvarez Thanks man!
# 1 teacher on UA-cam
I saw this video and thought it was great and then realized you are Straten Marshall ! I’ve followed you on Instagram for a while
same hehehehe was shocked :O
This video needs to be 30 years long
no problem, ill be uploading more so lookout
I wish I could see which notes you are picking when you do the main riff fast.
I would really appreciate if you could show the picking pattern of the whole lick and also the picking and the note secuence when changing from one pattern to another, going downwards the scale.
Take care!
Pablo Montero if you can't figure it out on your own is over for you
@@naegleriafowleri76 no its not.
Bro.. seriously you are so awesome bro🙏🏻❤️
Great video, and nice guitar!
thanks for the lesson. been waiting for someone to go i depth about that shit
Awesome dude, thanks alot!
A little extra help for the people, those licks are in the E minor scale
Man you are so fucking rad, keep it up
You teach better shred licks than any full on teacher ive seen on here..
Can you show the picking of this lick. Kind of hard to get up to speed without knowing when to alternate pick or hammer on and pull off. Would be greatly appreciated
before: i don't know when to pick if i do this lick
after watching: i know where to pick and mix it a lot.. :D
Thx for uploading!! :D
Great tutorial! I'll definitely practice this! Are you picking every note or are you using hammer ons?
SkrillFANofS0n1c a mixture of both actually, its half picking half legato! hope that helps thanks for watching bro!
Man, You are AWESOME!!!
Enlightening, to the point, great presentation!
Thanks, mate.
I know it can work being all alternate picked but to get it up to speed for me it sounds better doing some picking and some hammer on and pull offs.
Thanks for uploading man. Awesome lesson.
Holly f*ck you've got some great skills right here! truly impressed! how long did it took to rock like buckethead ? ;)
I learned the lick and just started playing. that lick isn't very hard so it took me probably like 1 hour
the best on youtube! keep doing videos! :)
subbed
Love buckethead, thanks for the lesson. Very similar to the licks in Paul Gilbert's intense rock.
Awesome tutorial dude helped me alot!!
Awesome tone, sounds great.
Thanks! just uploaded a video with a better buckethead style tone!

Awesome lesson dude. Keep up the awesome playing. I use that word too much:)
Can I play like this with legato technique?
What about the one hand no picking shred on Nottingham lace.
Yo man you play it as clean as buckethead. Nice work! I think a lot of people would find it helpful if you showed the picking hand and went through it note by note slowly.

hey man thanks for the lesson. when you play that extended riff, and are headed back up the scale, Do you do mostly hammer ons for the 3 note ascending groups or alternate pick it? good stuff
what pedal are you using to get that signature buckethead shred tone? Please🙏
Great stuff here!! You even have his signature ? Where did you get it and how much? If you don’t mind me askinf
Guitarists like Buckethead and you are so lucky because your pinkie is als long as your other fingers...mine his half the size and you can't believe how hard that sucks
God bless man!!!
Serious chops, and chance you could break down intro off buckets golden dragon pt 1 for us bots ?
Great lesson thanx!
Thanks for this Video😎🤘
Solid! Badass man!
Patrick McClosky Thanks Patrick
I guess I'm to dumb to follow what the extended version of this lick is tab wise ??? any help ?
Wowowowowowow wow wow wow!!! You are pretty good man! And you have a Gibson Les Paul Buckethead signature! This guitar is V.E.R.Y expensive here in Brazil (R$17.300). I can't have one...
Tudo nessa porra de país custa o olho da cara. Ser brasileiro é ver quem pode podendo.
Pois é... A triste realidade brasileira. Uma lástima isso.
thanks dude i think you helped me alot with technical dificulties.. does he always use that hammeron then pick next 3 picking technique throughe the whole song ?
Holy s that sounds amazing
play nottinghan lace by buchethead
Nice guitar bro...
Clean!
Great !! love u clip !! Thanks a lot !! also i will suscribe !! thanks again !!
Doing it on acoustic.. Fuck yeah
Hello which pickup is in the bridge?
Amazing, so precisely you do that. What is the model of your guitar? - seems like a fingerboard the way wider , almost as one of classical guitars
It looks like it's the Buckethead signiture Gibson Les Paul Studio. His guitar is bigger than a standard Les Paul.
its the studio model, rosewood not ebony
damn, awsome skillz
good, is the same lick that paul gilbert. good video
Step 1 play anything
Step 2 play with rubber chicken while doing hammer ons without picking
dude good skill
Aaron Wesley Thanks dude !
Holy shi bro.
Did you use any effects such as distortion or overdrive?
Thanks dude fucking tried to this lick for a year :p
Okay, Thanks!
How long u practice this lick ? and shred like this ? you shred so clean and accurately !!
dunos mafos Well at the time i was playing this kind of stuff, (2008-09) i was already learning 3 note per string scales which i really liked and practiced a lot to the point that they were all clean, this lick kinda followed through naturally because i was already doing these similar techniques, so it really didn't take long at all.
Nice! What did you do to strengthen your ring and pinky finger?
Masato Lee Simple exercises on the high E string using mainly your ring and pinky fingers, build up strength in those fingers and you can get this lick down in no time.
I believe this is a Paul Gilbert lick.
Did your pinky grow from this?
awesome , where you get those licks? and how do you work to up speed ? you work with metronome? saludos!
i used my ears and figured it out and thats pretty much what came out. i did not use a metronome for this particular run actually
Thanks a lot!
no problem dude
отличная техика !!!!
Do you pick every note or use legato
