The Guitar Academy is amazing!! I've learnt so much and my playing has become so much more focused. I highly recommend it for anyone who's serious about putting in the work and improving quickly.
Agree!
@@NubsWithGuns I understand what your saying man, I felt the same way but actually the way its structured is to build a very strong foundation of basic techniques from the very start before creating bad habits regardless of your level. I would actually say its a great place to start for someone. you'll have to start slow and at lower BPMs but that is totally okay!! The other day, i had to lower a tempo down to 30 BPM just so i could get my fingers and picking hand correct.
For example if you need to work on Alternate picking, the way Kiko has built his course is so that anyone at any speed can start to put in the ground work to get more control and much faster with an effective and strategic build up over time. If you want to do it. You can do it man!
I started Kiko’s Guitar Hack and 7 Factors during COVID and then transitioned to The Guitar Academy when it came out and these are exactly the courses and the teacher I needed out of my 18 years of playing but never had any structure and feedback.
What was your level before joining? What songs/solos were you able to play before joining?
can u share the link?
Thanks for what you’re doing for the guitar community
Thank you for supporting us !
I am 14 years old and I count a lot on your advice.
Thank you for everything 🙏
Doing what you're doing is so much work, The tour, the promoting, the practice, these videos, Q&As, the Academy....Just kow that we appreciate it SO MUCH! youre an inspiration. So happy youre using your platform to keep us all going. THANK YOU, KIKO!
"In Megadeth, because the songs are easier to play, I put the guitar lower" LOOOL
Que monstro!!!!!!!!
@Melor pelor Mas ele tenta mesmo reproduzir os solos 'originais'? Dá nota quebrada mesmo ou só faz diferente? Difícil acreditar considerando aqueles prog monstro que ele mandava no Angra..
I have to sit down to play Megadeth 😂
@Melor pelor tocar os solos de um jeito ligeiramente diferente do q nos álbuns n é errar, se vc for ver varios shows antigos do angra ele só improvisava tudo, pq ele é o kiko loureiro e ele pode
@Melor pelor taaaa kkkk
Kiko keep the good work. I would like someday you speak about the gear you used in the 90s and how the evolution in musical equipment changed you as a professional guitarist. Big hug from Argentina.
thank you kiko, very informative. You inspire me to re-grab my guitar after a couple of weeks of break.
Thank you so much for the advice kiko!
I will definately incorporate that into my practice routine.
Kiko, Have You (as a band) ever thought about recording a show with symphony orchestra? I would love to watch such show and have it on DVD / BlueRay. I think that this is the only thing I miss soooo much in Megadeth’s discography. Songs like “Symphony of Destruction”, “In my darkest hour”, “A tout le monde” or “Conquer or die” would sound amazing!
Great idea
Metallica
Super down to earth. Kiko your parents did a wonderful job of raising you. Your demeanor inspires! Thank you! Flg az.
Your playing was a big factor in picking up dystopia. I hadn't bought a megadeth album since Marty left.
@@navaskin Chris Poland is on the system has failed (phenomenal return of Megadeth sound), united abominations and endgame are also worth the money imo.
What more to say! your videos are always awesome! as your music and of course your amazing 🎸 playing! thank you
Regarding the event in Barcelona, i was there on the front row (in front of James, so, the opposite side of the stage where Judas Priest was playing), and i could not hear their guitar tech playing and sound checking. I imagine it's totally different from the stage or another place in the audience (specially close to Priest stage), so it's totally unrespectfull of the band playing and the audience as well.
Btw, for those wondering, there was a quick sound check by Megadeth crew, but after the previous band has finished.
Great show, hope to see you again soon on stage.
Thanks a lot Kiko
There are videos on YT, closer to the other stage. You can really hear it and it messes with the songs and its really bad.
Always a pleasure listening to the FAQs. Thanks.
Sempre no seu aguardo, SUPERGATO😺😺😺🤘🤘🤘🇧🇷😎
😺😺😺🤣🤣🤣
Hi there Kiko, can't wait to hear the new album!
How did you liked Felipe Andreoli performance with Sons Of Apollo, amazing not? As you steping on Marty Friedman and Chris Poland shoes, there's nothing easy at all to step on Billy Sheehan shoes, far from that!
Thanx Kiko for all you re doing for us and for the love of music ciao dall’Italia
Just saw you this weekend at Rocklahoma, MEGADETH FOREVER! Changed my life!
Hello Kiko I can’t wait for your future concerts in Italy, with Megadeth (two months ago I’ve seen you in Verona with them) or by yourself. A couple of questions: will you one day do a Blues disk? And also, do you like the research of the “analog” sound? I mean, trying different guitars, pickups, analog effects, tubes and so on, to get a “dynamic” sound? Thank you so much!
I love Kiko. Can't wait for the new album!
I’m so thankful for this channel.
Melhor canal, mesmo não sendo guitarrista aprendo muito!
Thank you for these behind the scenes and Q & A videos Kiko! So Dave has been talking a lot in interviews for the new album about how refreshing it was working with you and Dirk on writing the new songs and he always goes on about how well you play. How has Dave's influence and being in Megadeth changed you as a musician? Did it stretch you to places you never thought you would go as a songwriter?
My man that first solo on celebutante had me rewinding like 5 times trying to figure out what you were doing! Awesome song! Awesome riffs! Love the new album!
Amazing that you take the time to do all this and interact. Thanks.
Tudo de bom pra vc Kiko, muito sucesso pra vc e pro Megadeth ^^
Thank you kilo for the videos you inspire me to play guitar you are my favorite guitar player
You’re awesome, Kiko- thank you for sharing all your honest viewpoints and experiences.🤘🏻
Great episode, good question's with confidence building answers.🖤🦋
Kiko man, thank you again for the useful advice, it is all so precious!!
...just play, for days!!! He says....holy words!
In any case it is a journey, so much so, an endless journey....as one can always improve....mine have been going for over 20 years and I intend to play my guitar till the very last day.
Thanks for your time and have a good play 🤟
Very informative video! Thanks for amazing job You're doing Your fans! Can't wait to hear Your new solo album... Open Source is amongst my favourites solo albums! Greetings from Poland!
Strap height live is such a big thing. Thank you for these videos
Good advice 🙏
You’re very inspiring. Myself, having been a huge Metallica fan for life, found myself drawn to Megadeth solely on your arrival in the line up. I even took up drums and usually play after I noodle around on guitar. I never thought of using drums as a warmup FOR my guitar practice/playing 🤯
Thanks for the advice and comments Kiko. Completely agree on Dave's response to the roadie sound check. ✌️ Keep up the downloads, appreciate your time and effort. 🤘✌️☠️🏴🇦🇺
Salve Kiko!!!
About the JP roadie.. Great reply! I also agree with Dave 🤘
11:32 "because the songs are easy to play" hahahahaha genious
congratulations on the new megadeth album! it's fucking amazing!!!
Goood Q's n A's verry importent
great content 👍
When I want to play something like arpeggios or a melody over a chord progression I start by playing the root note of the chords in the rhythmic pattern and then at the one of the next repititions I try picking the notes of the chords in a slower rhythm like quarter notes and repeat that and slowly transition to faster notes or synchopated rhythms in order to get the feeling for the timing of chords. After many repititions I kind of get that feeling and try to noodle around...
Kiko, essa vai pro Q&A... No solo da música Killing time, você começa com lick muito parecido com um começo de um vídeo antigo de uma música chamada Dream circle, que vc toca com uma tagima preta. Foi daí que tirou a idéia?
Show na boa great!.
eu não curto angra, mas eu te admiro e te respeito d+ chefe!
"in Megadeth, because the songs are easyier to play..."
Only Kiko can say something like that lol.
@Melor pelor What do you mean by 'he misses'?
if this guy wasn't so articulate, nice, sober, and fit, he would be a Rock Star !!! lol
"U can be anything u want" 😂🤣😂😂 yes, in your head.
There was some very good questions this time around great thinking. Standing up compared to sitting down was especially interesting. Kiko doesn’t have a small beer gut so he can’t relate. Most of my guitars feel very good standing up but my Gibson SG feels a little off. Naturally the neck wants to dive down when not held so this doesn’t help. Tough nut to crack with an SG for me and that sucks because it is beautiful.
Always practice standing up. I'm 59 years old and don't even have a chair in my music studio. All my music students stand during lessons. Just finished a video where it looked better if I'm sitting which created a new challenge for me. I had to learn how to play sitting down!
Love your videos, Sir!
Tell me: what is yours and/or hair regimen? Your hair looks AMAZING!
lots of questions looking for those secrets, there is none...its practice, every day, a lot.
easy fix for the wrist pain is to train both flexor and extensor muscles or you will develope inbalances in the wrist.
When sitting down I like to put my guitar like classical guitar players do, then you get more of a "standing up" feeling while being seated.
Hi Kiko, love the channel (and Megadeth) - quick question - when you are writing and recording solo material is there anyone you always play new stuff for because you really trust their opinion? If so, what kind of feedback are you looking for? Thanks
"Megadeth songs are actually easy", also his last video: tornado of souls jam
ANTES DE MAIS NADA, PARABÉNS PELO ÓTIMO TRABALHO NO ÁLBUM DO MEGADETH, "THE SICK, THE DYING AND THE DEAD", UM EXCELENTE ÁLBUM, RIFFS MATADORES, SOLOS DE GUITARRA MANTENDO O SOM DESTRUIDOR, ENFIM, UM TRABALHO QUE CONSEGUE SER MELODIOSO, PESADO E MUITO CRIATIVO, MEGADETH IS BACK WITH STRENGTH.
Kiko, thanks for all the great videos. I always find something in them to improve my playing. Do you ever use anything other than humbuckers?
Porque não tocas mais suas músicas ca? Ou solos do Angra? Ensina a tocar alguns solos que acha difícil. Obrigado
O cenário do vídeo me lembrou os finados monólogos em um quarto de hotel
*With a name like Kiko loureiro you have to kick azz on guitar.*
I ordered the new ]V[EGADET]-[ album on cd through the website yesterday and I also purchased a t shirt 👕 . It'll be a happy day when that package arrives!
Thanx for all these awesome tips master Kiko. Can you tell us which guitar tuning you enjoy playing?
I've been practicing standing up so much, I actually have a horrible time playing sitting down now.
Kiko, great channel. I always look forward to your videos. As a musician who’s starting to get more into the video editing and content creation side of things, I’m wondering if you edit your own videos or have someone to do them now? I’ve noticed the production value increase recently. When you’re on tour how much time are you spending working on videos (outside of actually filming content)? Thanks for being such a positive role model as a musician and human 🤘🏼
Kiko, how do you play those licks that go from 0 to 100, like let's say you just played a melodic phrase and you want to go on a fast descending run, how do you do that right of the bat? My hands stutter a moment before playing the fast part (usually a descending scale of 3 notes per string) additionally, to avoid that stutter I usually do a trill and start the picking on the next string.
Also, hyrule is pronounced high-rule (that's from a videogame called the legend of Zelda)
You are adorable trying to pronounce "Hyrule". Which shows that you have not times for video games 😀 (It's pronounced "high-rule" by the way)
It was exciting to see my name brought up. :D It really made my day :D
Hi Kiko ! Im trying to learn hangar 18 and im stuck at the first sweep in the song. I know i might praticing more sweep technic. How much time you think it will take for me to got it clean. Almost seem impossible for me. Thx Kiko for your channel.
I don't think anyone questions whether Dave was 'right' to be mad about the soundcheck...it's the way he handled it that had me shaking my head
I think though if someone had asked 'how would Mustaine handle a situation like this?' it would have gone down exactly the same :)
Great vids dudas, love your content
I wondered what your writing experience has been like in Megadeth. Do you come in with fully fleshed out songs ? or just send over riff ideas to MegaDave ?
Q&A: Have you ever witnessed any fights at a show you have played with Megadeth
🤘
Kiko, please do some guitar playthroughs from the new album! Dogs of Chernobyl or Killing Time! The whole album is extremely diverse and melodic, i love it!
Question.
How many changes and how complex should your music be that you write? Is there a limit to what you think is normal so to speak?
Kiko is it true you had to duel 5 guitarist in Brazil in one gig they tried to duel you at the gig..then you played with crocodile foot and won the duel..? This legend they speak of here in Argentina
Anyone know if Kiko uses tremelo stabilisers on his floyd guitars?
Thanks for the content
That thing with priest sound check, I thought that was just bad on whoever did that. It’s like… bro… Dave had reasons to be upset, “like really, guys? Right now? Lol
Cara, escutei killing time pela primeira vez. Você toco o intro do dream circle no solo dessa musica
Do you record with the quad cortex, or a real amp? Do you ever miss the feel of a cranked tube amp?
On the road you have a guitar tech to take care of your gear. Do you do all of the maintenance of your gear at home, or do you have it done by someone else?
Love the vids, please keep them coming.
Kiko, Hyrule is the Kingdom in the very famous video game The Legend of Zelda.
And it's pronounced High Rule !
Hero of the story is named Link.
"High Rule Link" !
Just letting you know before you have a "dad moment" with your kids who will think you come from Mars for not knowing this or something.
Consider this tip from me as repayment for all the nice guitar tips you're giving us !
Post scriptum Bonus Cheat-Sheet :
- The red plumber is named Mario
- The blue hedgehog is named Sonic
Hi Kiko!! Saludos desde México!!
I've been meaning to ask you, because you seem to be the right person to answer this: what ever happened to Renato Tribuzy, and why the blue hell didn't he build a career in music up, given his mindblowing and incredible voice??
Salúd!!
Hi Kiko, did you also play rhythm parts on the new album, or is it all played by Dave and you put down the lead stuff and solo's
Hey Kiko can you talk about beginner solo improvising? I'm new but play ALOT I love it but have a hard time just jamming a solo out.
What’s a good guitar cable
Hi, Kiko, I hope you OK.
Thanks for the Q&A places, it's really nice to have the chance to ask you for some things that are so important for us. I appreciate it.
I have a question for you.
In your experience ¿What is the best way to improve our speed playing on the guitar? ¿How do you practice this topic when you want to reach it, when you wanna play more fast?
Thank you for the answer.
🗣 Megadeth, Megadeth, aguante Megadeth (bis).
What's the drum beat in the background?
Kiko, how do you deal with jet lag when you travel country to country to play?
Cool
Hey Kiko, are you guys gonna bring any songs from The System Has Failed, United Abominations or Endgame to the set in the future? I'd love to see you guys play Kick The Chair (if Dave can sing it), Washington Is Next, Gears Of War and 44 Minutes.
Hi, Kiko! I’ve been following you here for a couple of months, so I’m pretty new on this channel. I’d like to start learning to play the electric guitar (I tried some years ago with the bass, but it didn’t end up that well…) and I was wondering if there’s a certain kind of guitar that you’d recommend to beginners, since I am completely clueless about that 😅
Thank you in advance, hope to see you and Megadeth very soon!
Hello sir its ( distorsajan).I am from nepal.. big respect and big respect for Megadeth.
Do u have to be specific in playing same original solos in megadeth songs or are u free to imrovise ?
Hey Kiko
Have you ever been offered by some other guitar brands before, for(signature guitar), or do you wish to collaborate with any guitar brands, if so what would it be, next to Ibanez??
Who is the guy drumming through your question and answer session ? Doesn't he know it is disrespectful to practice while a fellow musician is working? Anyways..thank you for your time and congratulations with having found such a wonderful job with Metallica..
Kiko any chance a 21 Licks Vol 3??
Where can I send you a guitar to try out? I build them
Kiko,
Iam ur fan from Indonesia
Would u play In my darkest hour.. Plz
Thank u
this is not a guitar question but i want to know how you learned to speak english cause i come from germ,any and english is my foreign or second language aswell and i must say your pronounciation is really great and you have also a nice accent. so how did you learn to speak english?
Hey Kiko, I saw megadeth live pretty recently. How do you look so cool on stage?
Kiko, hello from Russia, Ryazan! Have you ever used simulation of someone's behaviour to become as successful in YOUR field as this person is in his own? It 's great to learn something more about such people (for instance, about their convictions) than just being inspired by them =)
may i have the link for your guitar academy?

What's a Megadeth song that you love playing but isn't part of the usual setlist?
