This channel is pure gold: bite sized lessons, focused on the content NOT on the creator (in a good sense ❤), no fancy and expensive production that would only distract from the main purpose of the videos.
I laughed way too much every time 'The ugly oooooone' sounded off. Especially liked the little note above their head changing for each shot. Great lesson as always.
I know...he cracks me up!!! He has a way of explaining things so no matter what your skill level is, you WILL get something out of watching him. Exceptional player and very entertaining...
THAT WAS LIKE MY FINAL JEDI LESSON I HAD ISSUES JUMPING FAR ON THE NECK JUST NOW I CAN GO INSANE ALL OVER IT CAUSE NOW I KNOW WHERE IM GOIN BEFORE I WAS DRIVING OFF BRIDGES AND SHT...
thanks for the Refresher ... Use all those in tandem and in both Major & Minor Keys... The Trick is to be able to Utilize each position to lead to the next fluently ...
Hey Ben. Thanks for the vid man. Played along and really learned some stuff today. Question - do you mind sharing what your picking pattern is for when you start to speed up those arpeggio shapes? 9:20. Thanks friend!
How about we take a look at Emperors 'I am the black wizards'. This 4 Note Tremolo Picking is a massive challenge, that might be interesting to take a look at
Thank you so much Uncle Ben! This gave me a lot of XP points in a new skill tree! Side comment, I never get your videos popping in my main youtube page. That algorithm has got something against you pal, or as they might say if questioned, its just a coincidence.
Great video. Very informative. I'm just having trouble picking it at faster speeds 😅. I've been trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong with my picking technique bc I seem to get caught in the strings alot when trying to fast alternate back. What kind of technique are you using here exactly? I've watched your picking videos too but it hasn't clicked yet 😂
I find these things easy i do it 70 percent okay on my acoustic but im struggling with technical difficulties by pg the picking stuff can you show us how you play the picking on technical difficulty on a acoustic guitar that will help us in a million times more it will be the best lesson on picking my loving brother please think about what I said in this comment english is not my native language please think about what I just said it will help hundreds of guitarists that wants to get a good picking technique 😊❤
Yooooo! I'm on the west coast so I'm not sure how Knoxville is doing compared to places like nearby Ashville that we're seeing on the news here. Any damage at your place? Everybody in one piece?
Also if you are playing with a friend, get them to play the arpeggio a position higher or lower for easy dual lead harmony
Also that!

Big toe shoot up in my boot... best Little Richard line ever.

Next: arpeggios from hell made easy
One does not simply arpeggio an easy hell
@@BenEller Not with ten thousand pick strokes could you do this. It is folly.
Or keys of the Lamborghini
Them arpeggimos sounding great
Damn. Paul Gilbert tried to explain this to me for years but it never stuck. well played Uncle Ben.
I laughed way too much every time 'The ugly oooooone' sounded off.

Great lesson as always.
Uncle Ben explains things so even a step mom can do it!! Best lessons on the net! If I can become 1/2 as good as he is, I'd be very happy!!
This is such a cool idea and a great lesson Ben !
GYAD!!!! I loved this one!!! Great theory, practicality, and implementation!!
HR references two videos in a row!? Great jorb!
always great to see some Homestar Runner references on a great video!
Thanks Uncle Ben !
Eye opening lesson! Thank you!
This helped me so much. I've always struggled with the arpeggios and just suck at them . Not anymore! Ripping and tearing in Texas
Nice! Just more stuff for the guitar tool box! Thanks Uncle Ben!
Love your approach to teaching. Easy to follow.
The most practical arpeggio explanation I’ve ever heard, you again for your service sir 🫡
brilliant - finally understood
Awesome lesson. This really simplified this. Thanks Ben.
nice this also helps figure out what mode someone is in when they solo or improvise
I usually never hit the thumbs up button, but then I heard the Moon Ducktales song and my heart grew three sizes
Alternate title: "Play (Virtually) Every Ritchie Blackmore Solo Effortlessly!"
Wow you’re starting to make guitar seem easier and easier for me… thanks!
You can also call it "Preparation for the Ride the lightning solo"!
Great video! This one helped a lot
Glad to hear!
I like the yhaaaa lick. It's major and minor at the same time. Incredible!
Ben could suck at guitar and I’d still watch this channel. Dudes hilarious..😊
I know...he cracks me up!!! He has a way of explaining things so no matter what your skill level is, you WILL get something out of watching him. Exceptional player and very entertaining...
Thank you, Uncle Ben!
Accept - Fast as a Shark solo is a good use of this technique.
You make sense of everything! I love it! 🤘 🎸
Great video! Thanks! Btw, I dig the framed T Rex skull on the wall.
Great lesson
After all this time... it finally clicked. Thanks Uncle Ben.

Hahaha oh my god
Always funny how people auromaticaly use fingers when playing Mark Knofler .
Its allowed to use your pick 😊
Yooooo! I'm on the west coast so I'm not sure how Knoxville is doing compared to places like nearby Ashville that we're seeing on the news here. Any damage at your place? Everybody in one piece?
Knoxville didn’t get hit at all, we are very lucky. My heart breaks for Asheville and the other towns that got the worst of it.
Next : tabbed out song for ‘Ooh Baby’ by Cryer?? 😅😅😅
Ben will you do blinded by the light guitar parts please by manfried man earth band
Nice homage to NES Ducktales Moon World
