Where is "I'm gonna learn the intro to ten songs and never the rest"
Very true
i feel this and it hurts deep down.
Or only the solo part xdd
Bruh, this isnt really a phase, but a lifestyle
I have played professionally for ages and I still do this
Damn I skipped from phase 1 all the way to phase 8
Whats the faster soloing phase song?🤔🤔🤔
HAHA same
You skipped the salad for the prime rib my doode
You must be a genius
Phase nine is PRO BASSIST!
I went through
1 punk by ear
2 funk/metal lines
3 learning actual theory
4 instrumental jazz fusion
5 indie experimental rock
6 crustgrindoomsludgecore
All on bass, of course
in other words,
1 three notes
2 the blues scale
3 the blues scale with chromatic ghost notes
4 Herbie Hancock watermelon man
5 the muddiest tone possible
6 I play one note a minute and my bandmates do exactly the same
> Learns theory
> Ends up playing "crustgrindoomsludgecore"
@@callmeishmael5742 seems like theory has been plan D all along.
@@callmeishmael5742 like a boss
I've been stuck on "strums the chords well enough for me to be able to sing" phase for years
Singling and playing is so hard
@@kianr2200 it really is, I'm starting a band with a couple of my friends and they can't sing, and we don't know anyone who can, so I'm singing and playing guitar. It is not an easy task at all, especially when the guitar doesn't follow the vocals that much.
This is just too boring
Imagine being able to play smoke on the water
@Lee 80s Theres really nothing to it bro, do it real nice and slow at first until your fingers know by themselves where to go.

You skipped a step where you lost your confidence when you see someone else's great solo and you give up playing for a while.
I was gonna say something inspirational but really just Same
I was gonna say that there isnt only 1 phase of this, but there really is only one, one big that starts right on day one and will never end
Ngl so true when I song "easy" and I can not play it I sorta get depressed afterwards
Well shit I just stepped outta that. Then once you start playing again, you regret quitting because you had lost your accuracy and your speed.
It happened me with the violin and now i dont want to play it again ;-; FUCK YOU NAT
My evolution was
1. Mess around
2. Learn some jazz Lofi music
3. Playing Ichika nito and hard tabs I shouldn’t start so fast on
Accurate
Mine was:
Age 2: Touches my first guitar with my dad whilst he's playing
Age 9: Dad convinces me to play guitar and I get my first half-scale Ashton that cost all of $100
Age 10: Dad decides I can have a real guitar since I've progressed from Smoke on the Water and can now play the first position on a minor pentatonic scale
Age 12: Drop guitar because dad was pressuring me to practise too much
Age 13: Wait I can play game music
Age 14: Get into Nirvana and Soundgarden, pick up my guitar and begin practising for 2-3 hours a day
Age 14: god my fingers hurt
Age 14: Dad gives me an $800 Jackson I love it it's my favourite guitar it's so fun to play no joke
Age 14: I'm so close to being better than dad and he's been playing for 40 years
Age 15: Wait I'm in a band and I'm performing this is sick
and now here i am thanks for listening lol
Ah, Sadie Adler
Shit wish I had an 800$ Jackson at 15. All I had was a ibanez gio
@@donovenvarner yeah I’m lucky dad likes good guitars :)
I’m about to get a Gretsch now with my own money which will be the first guitar that’s fully mine... working sure is paying off.
you sound cool as fuck
@@Daisy-lm1ig thanks lmao 😅
For acoustic players it's
1. Noob Phase
2. Country Phase
3. Folk Phase
4. Rhythm Phase
5. Lead Phase
6. Theory Phase
7. Classical Phase
8. Playing Wonderwall For Girls Phase
Lmao, almost exactly as my phases
1. Noob Phase
2. Rock Phas
3. Solo Phase
4. Theory Phase.
5. Chords Phase.
6. Classical Phase.
7. Folk Phase.
8. Electric guitar phase
Phase 9 is spanish guitar
In both cases I’m in phase 3
just forgot the "bar chord is impossible" phase
Is there a “slow sad song” phase or am I just depressed
You are sad, that's it
come aboard my boi let us commune in band names and cry
Usually the 1.5 phase, because slow sad songs are veeeeery easy.
we’ve all been there
@@ivosamuelgiosadominguez6649 depends on what ur playing
I'm still in the "get a guitar" phase
Then there’s the phase of making a video about different phases that a guitar player goes through
I went from 8 to “only playing green day”
Jajaja i just play Green Day 😅
Well, it's my favorite band and you know, when you like a lot a band, you want to play the songs of them. Anyway, i play other things like Blues and Funk jaja
Loove Green Dayyy
Same
The easy of course **screaming intensifies**
I’m still a beginner. but I will say staring by learning green day. was really nice there songs are easy. and they make u feel like you actually know how to play guitar 😂
mine went like
1. noob phase
2. wtf am i doing
3. jazz phase.
I am at 2
Same
Mine:
Rock phase
Noob Phase
Rock Phase
Music Theory
Music Theory
Music Theory
wtf am I ever gonna finish music theory?
I'm sobbing
lol same
My evolution:
Easy simple noob songs
Getting a little better (starting to learn fingerpicking)
Giving up for 6 months
Starting again and learning a lot in just a week
Edit: 7 Months later.
I've learned a lot... like a lot lot... and I'm probably gonna be joining a band soon.. And I'm playing guitar everyday now
Omg 6 months? I go 2 days without touching my guitar and it feels like years since the last time i played it.
Lookmeonthefacebookimontherenow
@@rohan8350 same man, last week i went on a holliday for the entire week and didnt take my guitar and when i got home i just played all day i always miss it so damn much
When you realize you just went to stage 1 to 8 without experience: 00:55
Evolution of a pianist:
1. Meme phase
2. Heart and soul phase
3.Fur Elise phase
4. Playing other songs than fur Elise and heart and soul
5. Playing songs using only chords
6. Theory phase
7. Jazz phase
8. Meme phase again
Yeah, I started piano with memes and anime op melodies lol. Guitar was quite like the vid
Mine went:
1. Fur Elise
2. Crab Rave
3. Crazy Train
4. Ascend (by TheDooo)
5. Giorno's Theme
I play guitar. I only know two songs on piano: Megalovania and duel of the fates. I have no intention of evolving
I think you haven't evolved then yet
The only playing songs with the chord phase is so true, like you get into jazz and somehow only start playing chords and then you start to feel like you are shit at piano cuz you can only play chords and then you just quit
Me jumping from Noob Phase to Meme Phase:
*Parkour!*
💀
Wait that's illegal
mine was
age 11 - i have heard my dad play guitar for a long time and i finally pick it up
age 12 - i learn a few notes and play despacito
age 13 - learns the first song with a few chords off youtube and gets introduced to youtube guitarists
age 14 - gets my first actual guitar, a Fender Strat Custom and gets a teacher and learns how to solo
age 15 - learns a ton of solos, jazz kinda, and metal, sees other great kid guitarists better than me and almost stops playing everyday but ends up playing the next morning and becomes better than his dad
still going on and i hope ill become a guitarist like Steve Vai one day
never give up keep on going and remember, "Practice makes Perfect"
My phases so far (8 months in)
1: play once every two weeks if I remember
2: finally learn some chords
3: RAPID GROWTH HOLY HELL WHAT HAPPENED
4: I write my own songs now.....
Ah the theory phase, I'll get to it one day
Kam K damn I was in the theory phase before I even started learning guitar
I'm in the theory phase but that leads to very little practicing
Hannah Richards well I had been a drummer for a really long time and was into music theory then and now I’m practicing guitar while learning theory but haven’t really put them together yet
@@apothecurio yeah knowing shit is different from actually playing but when u kinda start putting stuff togeher it feels great
Even if u don't know that much about theory it still feels good
Yeesh I'm glad I studied theory in college, good luck to you guys learning it on your own
The original comment has been thrown into the abyss, never to be seen again..
Anthony Iero same haha
Anthony lero same haha
Anthony lero same haha
Anthony Iero same haha
Same haha
For me...
1. Easy Beatles strumming
2. Beach songs with fast strumming and only barre chords
3. Playing Green Day songs on an acoustic guitar
4. Playing Green Day songs on a new, cheap electric guitar
5. Easy pentatonic soloing phase
6. Learning tons of difficult songs but never getting good at them
I'm still going, I've only been plahinv for 10 months
I'm stuck with the 6th one
That's basically my 6 year run
1: know your enemy - green day
2: seven nation army - white stripes
3: how you remind me - nickelback
4: zombie - cranberries
5: thirth shop - macklemore
6: levels - avicii
7: I'm yours - Jason Mraz
8: vodka - koorpiklaani
9: begginer solo improvisation
1: don't have guitar
2: listen to Slayer riffs
3: get guitar
4: metal phase
Edit: not a phase
Shit that sums me up perfectly.
That's not really how it happened to me
I started playing pop
One year later I'm a Metalhead now 😂
FUCKING SLAYEEER 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Me
Exactly
Same but with Metallica
My bass phase
- The basics
- AC DC
- learning about Metallica
- seeing Cliff Burton play
- *metal*
- *metal*
- *metal*
- *metal*
Once you hit the god-level stage you grow long hair, start sounding Canadian and make some silly song about the "Spirit of The Transmissions" or "Ghost of The Radio" or some shit
Man if i somehow turned out to be a bassist and saw Cliff Burton
I'm already in extasy watching his recordings, this would be too much for me, mans a legend
Who can forget about flea?
No lemmy?
Yessss
..... he just explained every phase I went through as a guitar player IN PERFECT ORDER
Only phase I go through was funky groove, and that's because I really admired Tomo Fujita Growing up! He also guitar teacher when I lived Kyoto, Japan.
Stage 1: Never going on an actual stage
Stage 2: Fake ego
Stage 3: Blowing your first performance
Stage 4: Quit
Stage 5: Die
Stage 6: Get resurrected by Fender
Stage 7: Start learning scales
Stage 8: Get bored
Stage 9: Join a band
Stage 10: Quit again
Stage 11: Quit
Stage 12: Settle down and make a family
Stage 13: Pick the guitar back up at 35 because you feel like you’ve not achieved anything
Stage 14: Quit
That's about right, yeah
Lol
This is so... Modern Eric Clapton
Ooof 😅
Oddly specific
My phases were
1. Heavy metal phase
2. Heavy metal phase
3. Heavy metal phase
4. Heavy metal phase
5. Heavy metal phase
Good, haha, how it should be :D
Mine was memes
i approve
What is no. 6 tho ?
@@danielkabakov Yatch Rock
I went from (by ear)
Learning all the solos of Queen songs
To learning most Queen songs fully
To learning most Metallica songs fully
To learning random shit when I feel like it.
What did I get from this? I learned good rhythm to lead parts from Sir Dr Brian May. Very good guitarist to study and learn. From James Hetfield, I learned speed, accuracy, down picking, and really fast playing. From Kirk Hammett, I learned Pentatonics and WAH.
1: smoke in the water
2: 50's rock
3: Stones/Beatles
4: Bad apple
5: FUSION
Bass Evolution:
Stage 1: Seven Nation Army
Stage 2: Rock
Stage 3: SLAPP
Stage 4: Theory via Adam Neely
Stage 5: Jazz & Stupid Time Signatures
Stage 6: Gigging
Stage 7: mEmES
Stage 8: *playing copyrighted music on UA-cam*

0:32 let's be honest everyone is stuck there
Lee 80s same lmao
Learning Theory takes forever it's ducking a lot
i just learned CAGED so I can go back to 2 lol
Theory is awesome tho
just play with feel bro
mine was (acoustic) :
bass
very simple fingerstyle
3/4 chords song
turn chords into simple yet good sounding fingerstyle
good level fingerstyle
i m p r o u d
for me it was
1. smoke on the water
2. rock phase
3. theory phase
4. easy soloing phase
5. harder soloing phase
6. jazz phase (current for over a year, I play to stay here)
I had a very short metal phase somewhere in there but I don't remember where
Why is this actually how I evolved? Like I’m not even being ironic.
pretty much same here, but i had the meme phase before the jazz phase. Started learning meme songs after 4 years of playing (2016)and just started with jazz like 1,5 years ago.
When I started taking theory lessons i got into jazz too lol. Now I am intp Jazz fusion.
@Clay Goeke well fuck you too
M E M E S
@@DonHaka Shit I started learning meme songs less than a year in lmao
0:56 My sleep demon paralysis at 3am
At least he can play guitar
think i'm on the metal phase for ever
Every yousician ads' phases:
1. It is so slow and frustrating.
2. Downloads yousician
3. Guitar master
9. Switches to cello
Mar tín 10. Switches to glockenspiel
11. Slide whistle legend
If I didn't play classical guitar, I'd definitely be playing cello, love it.
@@nickcapalbo6919 12. Bowed triangle maestro
as a guitarist i actually want to play the cello
I honestly think I could play the "faster soloing" thing, but I don't think I could play the easy solo.
I'm the opposite.. starting in theory an jazz now, I just seem to have completely skipped the fast soloing thing. Slower stuff I can do lol
Same I've got no feel at all. If I want to solo slow I have to limit myself to maybe 4 notes. I just can't seem to get a nice melody going.
@@willspeakman2461 same
@@willspeakman2461 It really takes a lot for me as well, but constantly doing it (preferable over minor scales) has increased my ability in this a lot. But it took me like 3 years of improvising until I've reached the point where I could say that I actually like what I play. Just don't give up.
Easy soloing honestly sounds better to my ears
Evolution of piano:
1: twinkle twinkle phase
2: Random Christmas carols.
3: für Elise
4: actually I want to play violin
5: never mind, I’m learning guitar
6: getting back into Piano, violin, and guitar.
I am 15 and my fingers haven’t not hurt in 11 years.
How am I simultaneously stuck in all of these
I love the fact that the "super jazz book" has two pages
My evolution was:
- Sad song noob phase
- Black Metal noob phase
- Death Metal kinda noob phase
- Deathcore phase
- Djent/progressive phase
Prog metal is great, especially Dream Theater
@@Jsssddfgffghshdhdhusjsjd But it's so hard and technical
You missed the “Wonderwall” stage
that jazz lick is so clean
Help I’m stuck in theory phase and don’t know how to apply it 😂
I know how boi you weakling
In what context would like to apply it? Are you trying to implement it into composing or teach others or something else?
Learn where the intervals are, major scale positions, and note names up the neck.
Same
Theory is a tool, you shouldn't use it unless you need it. When you have an emergency kit in your car you don't have it up in the passenger seat with you, you keep it in the trunk.
You forgot the "Through the fire and the flames" Phase
Yeah like that’ll happen
U need Unlimited Powah for that
Oh you mean the "pray to whatever god available that your fingers won't be bleeding" phase.
i will always be in number 3 no one changes that
I am right in the middle of the metal phase and the easy solo phase
And the Nirvana-destroy your guitar and play like an angry Jonny Greenwood style?
Ive been stuck in the Nirvana phase for over 2 years now
But seriously that could be phase 2
im currently in that jonny greenwood phase, but i often switch between paranoid android and house of cards lol
Here here! Hahaha hell yeah. Except I play shoegaze influenced J-rock.
@@potatoheadhaoy yes! those stuff are great. i really enjoyed the album eureka by kinoko teikoku
For me:
Step 1: Buy a Gibson SG Standard so I can sound like Angus Young or Robbie Krieger.
Step 2: Look surprised when I still sound like me.
Step 3: Accept that being a good rhythm player ain't a bad thing.
That's exactly me 😂
I have a SG gibson becoz of Angus and i still sound like crap
Heremycell9056025538askjohnwhoiam

The bad ending
The phases for me (acoustic) were
1. Fingerstyle Phase
2. Thats just it. Just fingerstyle.
The absolutely smoldering look he makes when playing 035
This is where his emotions drained and he became the Davie504-like man we know today
Cringe Kiddo Davie504 is an aids channel that begs for likes
@@squidward9747 yeah it's gross
whats up. SLAPPERS
No Davie is a man who plays bass and is EPICO
@@TheSereneBee davie = stonks
0:37 when I wait in the elevator 😐...
My phrases were
1. Having a hard time with a c chord
2, learning to play a c chord
Stage 1:basic nut position chords
Stage 2:Baree chords 3 positions
Stage 3:Chords progressions songs
Stage 4:Tabs fingerstyle
Stage 5:Major scale
I started with theory because of my dad and went STRAIGHT to metal, then country 😂
Darkthrone pfp, a man of culture
Was a classical vocalist for years before I got serious about learning guitar. Knowing theory from the beginning is a game changer.
It’s about time this guy smiled
My phases:
1. Getting a classical guitar
2. Triying to play Miserlou but failing *miserably*
3. Playing the Godfather theme slowly and steady
4. Learning chords
5. Trying to play Temacious D songs
6. Realising that classical should played without pick
7. Starting playing flamenco songs(and fingerstyle techniques, slowly of course, I'm still a beginner)
You are at copying Rudy’s stare while playing phase
Fucking Rudy copyrighted eyes 😑
you forgot the phase where you playing all four notes of metalica whole time

I’m always on the metal phase no matter what I don’t plan on changing either
metal 'phase'
im never getting out of mine mate
currently in the meme phase. i'm basically a pro.
And Donna Lee, nice choice of jazz
I am actually quite new to eletric guitar and currently I am on number 4 .easy soloing phase, now grinding practicing towards number 5. Faster soloing phase.
I'm in the phase where I'm falling in love with guitar. Oh, and soon to start composing songs.
been playing for 8 years and I’m still in the metal phase and don’t plan on leaving jt
I love how Jazz is right after theory haha
Mine is currently going
1. Noob Phase
2. J-rock and Classic Rock
His face is staring right into my soul constantly
1st phase:
My favourite genre is Death Metal and my favourite band is Nirvana.
JC Denton I think I’m a nirvana addict I need to go to rehab
I'm a nirvana addict I need help I can't stop playing green Day and nirvana
1. Noob phase
2. well, still noob phase
3. I'd rather play piano, because that actually sounds like something.
My phase:
Noob phase
Rock phase + easy soloing
Metal phase + fast soloing
Theory + jazz phase
Polyphia phase
This is soooo accurate I I’m in 6rn and the path is exactly the same
Fook... thought I was in stage 4. I was so wrong... *I'M* *A* *PRO*
Phase 9 for me was using my knowledge of 5 plus years plating guitar to record 2 or 3 chords for my Lo-Fi Chill Hop Beat and then loop it through the whole song
Luis Osuna I can relate to this
Oh shit it's me
Every phase is happening at once for me
man really just staring a hole into all of us
I just love his facial expressions, you can honestly see what he feels
1. smoke on the water 2. you shook me all night long 3. symphony of destruction i dont know all
4. Wow I played the Symphony of Destruction solo!
What's the name the 5. (faster solo)?
@@docziboldizsar8414 angel witch by angel witch I believe
I started learning last month and I'm at my Jazz phase. I have always liked jazz
this is scarily accurate
Everyone went through the Eddie Van Halen Eruption solo phase😂
Dude you literally hit the nail right on the head with this one, this was literally all my phases lol!
Meanwhile ichika be like : I am not even here baby I am an hallucination.
im pretty confident ima be in the metal phase forever
Mines was like
1:) Kurt Cobain Phase
2:) Slash Phase
3:) H E R M A N L I P H A Z E
D R A G O N F O R C E
Same
Still in Kurt Cobain
UPDATE: im now into dj0nt 😏
0-3-5

Locke Yeetus bro
i'm in my rock phase
now i know whats coming
Humans: Aliens must be the highest form of intelligence in the whole galaxy
Aliens: 0:57
Bold of you to assume that "noob" is a phase for me.
I'm almost offended how this accurately depicts my career as a guitarist
Is your profile pic alex skolnick 😂
You forgot the *im not learning any new songs and playing the only 3 songs I know over and over again* phase.
Bro as I'm watching you, an ad of you comes on..
"The right way to practice scales vs. the wrong way."
