@BERNTHGuitarAcademy unfortunately the course is not for me, I've purchased it today, but I would like to do a refund, how could I process it? Thank you in advance, I couldn't find this info on the official site
Except if you make mistakes he can’t see you and correct as needed, resulting in the build of bad habits that could potentially be very hard to get rid of. I hope it’s not the case though
I find that vibrato is a huge differentiator. When people knock a guy for "mindless shredding", I often see that the player often has a terrible vibrato and their playing sounds hectic and chaotic because of that.
Such a good analogy. Got really quite good, with lots of potential... but then did nothing to build on it for 25 years....and gradually became a sloppy blues dad, raking & stabbing at strings..
@@genesisesand learnt from random nobodies such as Joe Satriani who, as we all know, don’t know anything about a guitar. Give Kirk some slack he has nothing to prove
literally nobody needs this course dont buy online courses unless its ur job u dont need to be the best shredder ever play to make urself happy music is not a sport
Even recording your self playing guitar through a phone will help a lot with timing.. that’s what I do and I can really tell when I’m rushing or dragging
One of the Best things about you is that you realized your Status from the young years. Demanded of yourself to fix yourself. And from your own trials you have created these quality courses and Videos. As always thanks Bernth.
I'm going back to playing Blues and slow rock. Every time.I hear one of these guys that can do metal so Clean and smooth on UA-cam.I just makes me all the more aware of how much I lack in that area. i'm too damn old & been working at this for far too long, without any worthwhile results, to continue beating a dead horse.
I am completely self taught and I find your videos and Ola England’s videos super helpful… I am not joining a band, but I like getting better, so I appreciate your content… so thank you! 😊
@@joshpetit44 Self-taught doesn't mean using magic and learning the guitar with no information. Looking up the information yourself is self-taught whether it's watching or reading.
@@Despond Correct. When I started I had a chord chart and instructions on how to tune, nothing more. So that wasn’t self-taught self-taught? (Didn’t feel that way on my end!)
@@joshpetit44 generally self taught means you didn't study it at school or paid for lessons. if you like to stick to this technicality just because, you're technically just being silly.
I was self taught for the first few years. When i started getting lessons i learned that a metronome is crucial for good technique atleast for me anyway. A metronome like forces me to learn good technique. I practiced sweep picking for like 6 months and hit a wall. Used a metronome and bam what a difference.
Man, this past like...5 years or so, ive completely lost my passion for music. I am self-taught so i dont actually know all that much realistically, i dont find any new music that makes me want to pick up the guitar and try to learn it anymore, im always working and would rather spend my precious few hours of free time playing video games with my wife than practice guitar, or language, or anything i used to do. Life is just too draining and at 28, im no better than when i left highschool a decade ago..
Same here, do you play in a band? It does reignited me to get better and I can't wait to go home and play everyday when I'm working lol Sometimes had to keep myself from playing because I lost track of time.
@@CLA82529 not an official band no lol but my buddies and I made a legitimate song we recorded on one of our iPhones in a garage in the sweltering hot Texas heat xD no one will hear it but it was done so I consider a W, not everyone's written a song with some mates
I was you, except i quite often find music that i would want to learn to play. My issue is i severed the tendon to my pinky on my left hand, so my playing was so bad i quit. That was about 8 years ago. My solution belive it or not has been music theory. Playing fast is great, sure, but if im realistic with myself, i can no longer do that. How do i make up for it? I need to know my instrument. Inside and out. I cant play fast and technical, but i can play with soul and feeling. Maybe all you really need is a style change.
As a self taught guitarist i just want to say, the journey has been frustrating but also an intense labor of love. I have had many mentalities on rhe instrument over the years, but the one that changed my life was thinking "i want to be able to make this instrument do what i want." While practicing.
I remember when I first started being self taught and if I had to choose my favorite, I started doing it by accident when obsessively learning Elliott Smith songs. Later when I got more serious about my playing, I’ve always loved the neoclassical style and the phrase used was “secondary dominant”. When playing in a chord progression it’s using a major chord in a minor 3rd. A 5 v of 5.
But playing is so much more fun than practicing :( It does feel really good when practice yields noticeable rewards. You just gotta trust in the method!
Pro Tip: It's always better to play a little "laid back", even on super fast lines, because it's way easier to speed up than slowing down during a run.
Self taught. If you do not count the 100 or more other guitar players I've jammed with. 90% I considered more advanced. I must be learning because everything you said made sense
only been playing about just over a year is there stuff on your patreon academy that could help me get better i don't want to be a shredder i love playing rhythm. cheers
too stupid for cubase or any daw to figure it out just by tutorials... Maybe because i dont like anything i need a mouse cursor for... God i feel old...
I use your lessons on UA-cam for theory and practice. While it’s helped me improve it’s not where I want to be. 5the new course your offering is it compatible for use on an iPhone? I have no computer and use my phone for everything. I don’t want to order the course only to find out it’s incompatible with my phone. I do plan on getting a computer recording setup so I can record original material and lessons to practice but til then would this work?
This is exactly the answer for those questions, “Am I too old to learn guitar?”. The answer is usually “Yes”because with age comes responsibility and working adults, with kids, have less free time to dedicate to their practice.
Depends on what you consider failing. If it is beeing not a professional then you are absolutly right. But if it is not having fun and not beeing able to make riffs yourself I think you are wrong.
I listen to all kinds of music, and play all kinds of music. Ive never dressed like a freak to seem as in the culture of any music. I guess thats why people freak out when i bust out lyrics from anything

But I'm not self-taught! I have Bernth.
😂
Absolutely! Bernth is basically your own personal Yoda, whispering ancient wisdom into your ear...or headphones.
Nice💪
You are BERNTH taught😐

almost every time someone drops the "mindless shredding" line the player is amazing and the comment comes from some elitist douche :p
played guitar so long i became kirk hammet, until i found bernth

@@lueysixty-six7300 you mean "became one of the most famous guitarists on the planet and financially secure for the rest of his life"?

Bernth is so correct! Always go back to the basics, the fundamentals. You will get more mileage if you always vist the fundamentals.
Rushing.
SO YOU DO KNOW THE DIFFERENCE
so jealous of anyone who can afford the course, that demo lesson was beautiful
How much is it? @@ILLRICARDO

Love your acoustic stuff you got out -- the song Farewell is a favorite of mine

Great advice. Simple and concise many thanks 🙏🏻
"Are you rushing or dragging..1,2,3" Bernth SLAPS my face on every 4th beat
I’m self taught for now but going for lessons soon!. Thanks Bernth! ❤
For a split second in your vid @1:37… I thought I saw your right eye 👁️ stayed one position, while your left eye 👁️ moved 😂. My bad
right....WRONG..
damnn that stare was so metal
Failing is part of the learning process of we didn't fail we'd all be day 1 pros.....and probably bored too
But playing is so much more fun than practicing :( It does feel really good when practice yields noticeable rewards. You just gotta trust in the method!
yes lol as long as you're not playing for other people, playing bad wasn't matter
Pro Tip: It's always better to play a little "laid back", even on super fast lines, because it's way easier to speed up than slowing down during a run.
Lord Bernth!
Pls make a video on how to practice with metronome!
Jason Stallworth has some great videos on melodic soloing.
Thank brother! Been watching you long time. Do you have new courses?
Ack, you got me
Self taught. If you do not count the 100 or more other guitar players I've jammed with. 90% I considered more advanced. I must be learning because everything you said made sense
Hello bernth
practising to a slow beat fast is superusefull.btw.
Thanks bernth! 🤘🎸
That tone!
Can I have that guitar if I follow this routine for 30 days?😃❤️Looooove that guitar and you have a great channel💪😃❤️
"self-taught" → who said I taught myself shit ..??
Ah id love to but im trying to get Cubase and an interface annnnd im a poor dude lol.
i am however signed up for your patreon! :)
1:59 😭😭😭 were you rushing or dragging?
Am i self taught if i watch a lot of online turorials?
Depends. Did you subscribe and hit that notification bell? Those are the true marks of a self-taught master.
If you have a doubt , for whom are you going to ask???
@@DreamChaser507 Lmao 🤣
Yes that is self taught
Lmao based
Depends on your aim
Hello Bernth Sir
I am from India so is it possible to join your guitar course? I m very much keen🙏

Does this apply for bassists?
we'll see I have no idea as a newbie bassist myself.
Have a look for Charles Berthoud, he offers a course for bassists which is on Bernths guitar level ❤
Not my tempo🥁
Being self-taught produces unique guitar players. Ignoring music theory is great
Nice axe
Premature epickulation.....!!!
lets go
What step is the mid 30s crippling carpal and cubital tunnel syndrome that borderline erases 25 years of practice…step?
The most vile thing you can do as a human is drop the 70th like on a video about sex.
That is all
I think think this video is speaking to me there was 777 likes im 778 like 👍
You will fail unless you can spend 2+h learning guitar each day for 2-4 years
