The funny thing is, most beginning players will eventually get to know these individual steps. Yet when you combine them (that's the key!) you get awesome metal riffs. Thanks for pointing this out and for sharing this video.
You are the man! i have been a metal head since birth in 81. You are my favorite UA-camr guitarist, i could listen to you shred all day. I would love to jam with you one day, i am nowhere as good but love to play metal.
That’s similar to the way that I do my songwriting. I find the chords I want to use, find a different kind of a variation of stroke patterns and then I try to find a way to create a pentatonic fill for the end of the riff every other time it comes up. Awesome video and I always love the information you give us.
I agree with how much you've taught us recently. Between these lessons and your awesome Metal Riff Master course, we have been really enabled to compose. Hope that pinched nerve is calming down. Judging by your neck movement, it may well be. As always, you're awesome and I can't wait, after a little more practice to have my buddy from my twenties over and freak him out with my advancement since the hospital stay. Thanks @Jason!
Best teacher out there! I'm currently working on a song with what i have learned in the course and it's coming along we'll hope i can make you proud brother.
every time i see that logo with that skull in front of the guitar, i chuckle......It reminds me of the symbol for my part of the country, based on the history of the region...called ' Zeeuws Meisje' look it up im sure you will see the resemblance....also...great lesson :)
Luv this and have some suggestions for Part II: how about in a different metal key like E minor we see some power chord slides think Master of Puppets, scale riffs like (Metallica, Jump in the Fire) some inverted / bar power chords (Seek and Destroy style) where the root note is under the 5th, and maybe hammer ons (The Four Horsemen) sorry did not mean to have them all be Metallica, those songs were just fresh in my brain
Excellent video!! It takes what we’re learning in metal master and makes a very clear real world application that is getting more and more easy to understand. Thank you!
I love these progression videos and practically all of your metal tutorials. When I see one come out, I know what I will be doing that evening when the family goes to bed ;)
Hey man I just got to say you are Dynamite to me. I'm a self-taught musician I've been teaching myself now for a few years here and looking on UA-cam and got books out the yin-yang but sometimes the books are tough so but you put it right out there and where I could really understand it and of course you can't go wrong with metal I was born in the mid-sixties but when I first heard kiss and I'm originally from New York I was like hooked and have been ever since and now that I'm in my 50s I'm progressing now I'm actually teaching myself how to play everything so that way I could put it together and it would be my own but I just want to thank you very much you are like the coolest I knew once you started talking I said this guy is my kind of people so thank you very much. Peace..✌ PS and yes of course I had to subscribe.
Tony, thank you for subscribing! Yeah, books can sometimes only take us so far. Also make sure you grab my practice routine if you haven't yet: jasonstallworth.com/guitarist
@@jasonstallworth hey Jason yes you are so right okay I didn't know that. I definitely will. I enjoy everything you've been putting out there plus it gives me a reason to listen and watch you metal out that axe.. again thank you so much.
I always love your videos. I've been playing guitar since '94 and I'm always trying to improve. I find it extremely difficult to "gallop" with high speed. Not sure why, they strings always catch too much on the pick. Can I ask what strings you use? Maybe I'll switch mine out and give them a try. Thanks again for sharing!
Hi Jason. Thanks for this video! I appreciate how you break down each step bit by bit to allow us to see what you are doing and let us feel out what you are trying to get across. A question I have is how can a bass line be utilized in rock/metal music? Could it be like a bass line that is almost an independent lead line or a line that helps bring out the sound in everything else? Knowing just a little more would definitely help with creating bass lines that stray away from the eighth note following the root pattern that is utilized in many songs. Thanks!
Another great one Jason. Question. On number 2 example it looks like you are continuing to fret on to the power cord. Are you just picking open strings in between? Which stings? Keep up the great content!
Dude, that’s a great question. I’ll normally pall mute that first note of the chord I just played before going to the next. And sometimes that’s an open string, like going for that A to the G. Hopefully that makes sense!
I can do 16th notes and stuff fine but it always sounds sloppy when I try and hit more than one string. Then when I try and peddle the open E and hit the C5 and D5 it sounds like garbage.
Thanks for the vote of confidence. Guitar is actually difficult to do well, even some of the simpler things like a single power chord require focus to keep the extra strings from ringing and all that. It definitely takes time, but I’m putting in a couple hours a day minimum, so hopefully soon it will feel like riding a bike. That’s what I want, that natural feeling like the instrument is an extension of your body, the way I feel on drums.
@@jasonstallworth Yep, figured that out quick, really digging the lessons! Kinda stuck in my song writing! Your lessons are well thought out and your teaching style easy to follow! Working on new ideas already! Very kool keep Rockin!

Yes, combining them definitely gives you endless options!
You've taught me more in the last month or 2 than I've picked up in over 2 years on UA-cam. Thank you so much for the lessons🤘🎸

That's a great way to go about it man!!
Fantastic vid Jason 💪🏼🎸

Killer lesson as always man, a good way to expand on basic rhythm sections
Thank you, Lara...yeah it's always cool to expand and see where you can take different riffs and progressions.

As ALWAYS awsum lesson!
Thank you dude 🤘
I'm going to go try this progression on my new 7-string 🤘🤯🤘
Oh, the 7!!

I think this video may answer your question: ua-cam.com/video/BGqDsM-zSJA/v-deo.html
@@jasonstallworth thanks! I’ll check it out.
What do you use to get that sound thanks great I use over drive
I have a complete metal tone guide here: www.jasonstallworth.com/metal-tones-virtual-and-real-amp-settings/
Yes sir
🤘
@@jasonstallworth you have help me sooo much I’m still trying to learn up n down I get so irritated cause I’m used to downward to much!!!
What amp are you using, and what drum machine are you using?
Just basic loops in EZ Drummer for these types of videos (Metal Machine pack), and BIAS FX 2 for the tones here
Another great one Jason. Question. On number 2 example it looks like you are continuing to fret on to the power cord. Are you just picking open strings in between? Which stings? Keep up the great content!

@@jasonstallworth It does make sense. Might be nice to see you explain that one avideo in the future if you can. Thanks again
Unrelated question: what kind of monitors are you using? Are those Kali's?
These are KRK Rokits, 5-inch monitors. I've had them for over a decade now!
What chords are you using? Maybe I missed that?🤔
This was more about the concepts that learning the specific notes but you can play around with those with all power chords and in different keys
@@jasonstallworth thank you ..
MORE METAL!!!!
Indeed, my friend! 🤘
I can do 16th notes and stuff fine but it always sounds sloppy when I try and hit more than one string. Then when I try and peddle the open E and hit the C5 and D5 it sounds like garbage.
You'll eventually nail it! Just practice a few minutes each day and be consistent...you'll wake up one day playing it!

@@SketchEtcher 🤘
I watch your video and go and practice. Never sounds as good as you, but I am getting there LOL
Don't worry, you will absolutely get to where you want to be and progress!
If I’m seeing it right. It’s open note then 1,2,3.
You can play around with that and make it your own...that's always going to sound better!
🤘🤘
🤘
that progression is pretty much the same as Don't Fear the Reaper from Blue Oyster Cult
🤘
🤘🍻🤘
🤘
Nevermind Not Drop D!
nope! I'm always in standard
@@jasonstallworth Yep, figured that out quick, really digging the lessons! Kinda stuck in my song writing! Your lessons are well thought out and your teaching style easy to follow!
Working on new ideas already!
Very kool keep Rockin!
We are all slaves to i -> VII -> VI (i.e.: B5, A5, G5). It works too well: especially for tunes that feature strong diatonic melody.
It's a cool progression!!
Basically it's a metallica chord progression
🤘Close!
This guys is bad a$$
