How lucky we are !!! ... get free this kind of lesson just by one click. Thanks Steve you are the ONE super man.
This has helped me enormously. I have been a jazz player for 40 years, at times professional, at others, not pro. The one thing that has held me back all these years has been my right hand. There seemed to be no way I could emulate Charlie Parker's alto. He was so fast. As you know,jazz guitar uses a lot of picked notes. I have been so disheartened at times because of my slow right hand. (Don't misunderstand, I can play at pro tempos but even this isn't near the lightening speeds of guys like Parker, Sonny Stitt etc)
Thanks to this instruction I believe I might have found the breakthrough that I have wanted for so long. I have only been practicing this 'speed' picking for 2 weeks, and only about 10 minutes per day. I can't play anything useful with the technique but what I have noticed is that my regular picking has gotten faster; I seem to be using more of my wrist when I play.
This is something you didn't mention. It's a good spinoff. By practicing the speed picking my regular picking has loosened up and has become faster. Noticeably so.
Thanks for posting this wonderful video. At the age of 55, after playing for 40 years or so, at a time when I thought I was plateaued out for good, I have a new life in my playing.
Thank you. I can't begin to tell you how much this means to me.
Hardtop Harry This is a great comment and put a smile on my face. Good for you, man. I haven’t lived quite as many years as you have, but at the age of 32, this video helped me MASSIVELY with the very same plateau in my skill/playing that you speak of. I’ve played professionally and played with bands since I was a young kid....a child actually. I’ve been stuck in the same place of ‘really good’, but not ‘great’, or, ‘moderately fast’ but not ‘awesome’, hahaha. I hope to be rocking and playing music with the same intensity when I’m 55. I rarely comment on UA-cam videos, but just couldn’t pass up the opportunity respond to your comment. Take care and jam on, brother! Best wishes....
i know this is like 2 years old but if you want to use speed picking(tremolo picking) in a meaningful way you could always learn a black metal song like Transylvanian Hunger by darkthrone. it uses this in the bulk of the song, and with how chromatic black metal is im sure you could find jazz chord shapes in there so you could string skip or incorporate jazz chords
Chris Manzi I used to have the same problem bcs I would only practice sitting down and I was almost useless standing up. But just practice 10-15 minutes sitting then 10-15 minutes standing. I now practice just as much standing as I do sitting. It’ll make a huge difference. Also you’re body language whilst standing will improve and you’ll feel loose and comfortable doing it.
As a jazz trained guitarist and jazz fusion lover, I second all that!
Love this comment!
This guy has got to be the nicest and most helpful teacher on the planet. So helpful and pleasant.
I had given up the electric guitar and had decided to stick with acoustic only - until I came across your channel. Thank you so much Steve, you show that with effort and dedication ANYONE can do it.
You are the on line teacher I would most want to sit and have a beer with. I'll buy.
The more of Steve i watch, the more i love the lessons! Really getting into my guitar again and thank you for the amazing videos and the inspiration!
Finally! A man who is on the same page with the heavy pick. Great lesson!
Steve is an amazing teacher, I love watching these videos.

I can't believe how many great guitar instructors there are on youtube now. You are one of the best! Thank you!!!
How to hold the pick, what parts of the arm, wrist, and hand to use/not use, pick type, and just general relaxed muscles are just some of the things I picked up from this vid.... I'm playin better already! Wish I would have had a guitar technique teacher a long time ago. Great vid!
You're the man Steve!!! I can't explain how much you have helped clean up speed up my playing!! I appreciate what you're doing man!!!
Steve, I have watched several of your videos over the last few days and I just wanted to tell you that they are very helpful. Thanks so much!
Thank you so much, I’m a guitar player that just started playing about a week ago and this video jump started me very fast on this
Your videos are the best. To be able to play the riffs of Megadeth, Metallica etc is hard. But to explain so clearly to others and to demonstrate so well.... Is the mark of a master.
Thanks for emphasizing intuition and looking inward... just the very ways to look at life and its majesties. I've watched about 4 of your videos today. I appreciate your enthusiasm and honesty.
I also notice your customizations on that Ibanez and they're great!
You’re so awesome dude you’re so well spoken and explain things in such an easily understandable way, thank you!
Hey Steve, Great lesson. Something you said reminded me of my grandfather who had really big hands, and he always played guitar with those, big-o Fender triangle picks. One good thing I can say about them is, If one corner wore down, you still have two more! I've found out too, if I pick the high E,B strings over the bridge pick-up where the string has the most tension I can gain a little more speed there too! Sometimes I'll use a fingernail file and sharpen and dress the tip of the pick! That has worked for me in the past.
Thanks again for another good lesson, your a talented guitar player a great teacher!
See you in the next video!
Thanks
Todd P.
Sir..You're a great teacher
Steve teaching is always the best of all the lessons I got.
Thanks Steve.
Thanks steve for this compliment you made me alert everytime i tried for dis technique MORE ENERGY to you!!!!!
Very interesting information Steve.
Thank you.
Top quality lessons! Big fan! You’ve helped me progress further and further as a guitarist. Thank you!
I'd love to have u as my teacher man, it's like u have a gift for communication, just love every video u currently have
You think your hands are small? Hold my juice box
I have been playing over a decade now and made huge gains in the guitar but this by far has given me a huge bump in progress. My finger independence has gone way up. I don’t twitch my pinky when moving my ring finger anymore. My chugs are consistently fast. Thank you sir.
Your strumming and picking videos helped me immensely. I started to try to go for a metal strum and needed to change my strumming hands position to be able to also seamlessly palm mute. I immediately needed to adjust how I held the pick and needed a smaller pick that was thicker. I went from a standard sized 1mm Dunlop to the 3mm stubby that is pretty small and it makes speed strumming much easier.
Agree. i have to unlearn now my novice skill in picking and it really matters with the sound
Thank you so much for this lesson sir.. i learned fast picking because of your lessons
Thanks so much for bringing up the subject of plectrums. I been after some tips on picks and been wanting a professional to discuss this topic for a long time. This is extremely helpful to me and I’m sure any guitarist that wants an extra boost to their picking speed then they’ll find this very helpful. Thanks, Great stuff!!
your lessons are awesome i am 50 years old but enjoy playing alot and your lessons always bring me to the next level thanks
Charm, ideas, approach, giving hope that everyone devoted to learnin playin can do it-God s gift you got Steve, wush you all the luck in the world
Some of THE best lessons on UA-cam. Love your delivery, man. Very well done 👍 thank you
Thank you, Jake!
Steve
perfect, thank u master for this great toturial
finally a nice in depth video on how to strum, thanks a million!
Excellent video about right hand technique thank you!!!
Thanks Steve, your explaination is so enjoyable. I learn something new from you
Been trying to play guitar for 14 years. I knew about the tremolo necessary to play fast and practice by playing slow the way you play fast then so on (from MAB). Have not been able to slow my tremolo down in order to practice so gave up on picking and opted for just legato. Was too awkward. Watching your video actually inspired me because of your depth of explanation - I "picked" up on my errors that also limited my playing all these years... gawd it helps having a teacher! Cheers!
Thanks for this lesson! Recently realised I have been Benson picking for 3 years, even though I'm a rock player. This video was helpful in understanding the right hand more :)
Roll over image to zoom in
Dunlop Big Stubby, 3.0mm...absolutely the best pick you can buy!
Awesome video. Great technique starts with great mechanics. With good mechanics, speed comes naturally.
I trust you with my life. That’s how much I trust you. You’re awesome
I recently shifted from a Jazz III to an Acoustik Attak Stealth. What a difference!
great lesson thanks a lot...
Exactly! I'll have to discard it. Good on pick lesson. Thanks!
This is literally some of the best advice I've ever seen/heard.
Thank you for your help!
Thanks for the kind words! :-)

Love your channel bro awesome teach and have helped me understand some things I was stuck on thanks!!!
Great video Steve! I think that focus more on right hand technique is SUPER important to master guitar. Would be great to see a video on how to master sweep picking.
Thank you. Love it.
Couldn’t agree more.

This Sound is super hard to Play that clean! Great hob, great teacher!
amazing vid. thanks!
THANK YOU VERY MUCH. This the first video I've found that details the other end of the system which is the pick itself..........
Hi Richard. My pleasure. The pick is definitely part of the whole process. I'd say it's actually where the system starts. The very basic. Glad to know this has been helpful and any questions please feel free to ask anytime!
So Steve, what is the very first episode that you put out so that I might look it up and start from the beginning. Your approach to learning guitar just blows my mind and that I really understand it better then anyone had ever tried to teach me. I'd appreciate the help.
Fred

Thnx man!!
Nice approach and great advice
Thanks a lot man you was verry understandable
Thank you so much! 👍👍👍👍👍
This tutorial is great...I struggle with the pick and I'm sure it's just bad habits and too much tension on my part. Those small details are so important! Thanks Steve. In the future could you talk about the left hand technique you seemed to have mastered? When you pin the string down and move your wrist...is that vibrato? Your bends are excellent. I'm really new at this. Thanks!
Thankyou brother 😊
I noticed the use of the neck pickup . Most, but not all shredfasters seem to prefer the rounder tone verses the bite of the bridge. I'm going to start incorporating the neck pick up more often.
Nice lesson dude. Speed picking is the culprit of metal guitar!
canNOT thank you enough STEVE ! your advice is gold
Thanks for the kind words, Jordan! :-)

Great video! Thank you so so much! Gonna keep practicing :)
Steve, thanks so much! You're my favorite channel! This helped so much. The shaking the water off your hand analogy was perfect. I also saw how you were holding the pick. Looks like you keep your index finger bent at the middle knuckle only. I have been bending it there and also bending it at the end knuckle, if that makes sense. So my index finger is folder up, if you will. This might be causing me to go slower. I'm rusty and I haven't been playing due to frustration. I know it takes time and I need to put effort in. I stopped playing for years and am trying to get back into it. THANKS!
Thanks for watching and sharing your experience, Rotter! :-)
Re holding the pick, something Steve says all the time is that if he's doing something that isn't comfortable for you, or if you're more comfortable doing something a little differently than he does, that is 100% fine. Because if you're not comfortable and relaxed when you're playing, you're not going to play your best.
Hope this helps! :-)

Hey Steve, I know this is an older vid, but it will always be relevant. My problem for years has been speed picking when you add palm muting to the equation, it changes the angles for me and I battle with it constantly; any tips on that? Thanks!
Actually you can rub the edges of a pick on a carpet a couple times to sharpen it again, it has the same effect as sanding it.
The guitar pick is so important. Seeking the perfect pick is a lifelong quest.
Thanks for watching and subscribing, James! :-)
