1:22 Kiko:" So lets say you saw a *cool* *guitar* *player* play some arpeggio with string skipping" 1:46 : Kiko plays an Emin7 arpeggio with string skipping... I see what you did there Sir... Amazing video btw
You , Marty Friedman randy Rhodes Kirk Hammett Steve vai and Eddie Van Halen are my guitar Gods !! U rock man I love dystopia y’all should come out with a new record 🤘🤘
Thank you for waking me up. I've lost some years with making no any progress, and because of your video I've done more steps forward during last week than I did last year. Just by switching off all but my AXE and headphones/speakers only. Just focusing and slowing down helped a lot. No computer/phone/youtube/backingtracks/facebook, ect. No any distractions. It's not easy to practise this way, it feels like making step back at the beginning, but it's not step back, it's just seeing mistakes I've been doing, but I didn't see before. Practice time is a time to face it, and a time to face feeling like I'm not that good as I thought so, but this is the only way to move forward, isn't it? :) Thank you!
That right there has been always my struggle, the feeling that you are stepping become, but it is actually a delusion, you are absolutely correct, it is actualy improving. thanks man, appreciate it you had shared
Probably Kiko as Mustaine has said one of the most technical guitarrist to play in Megadeth but what i like the most in Kiko´s playing is the ability to play Metal ,Rock, Fusion and Brazilian styles that he´s so prolific in. One of the Best in or out of Megadeth his path is set to be with gratest. And above all he´s Brazillian not American or British or whatever and i hope he can bring from his Brazillian roots something interesting to the whatever style he´s playing.
You are quickly becoming one of my favorite guitar players. You break it down so different people with various skill level can understand and apply. Thank you. Would love to see a video of alternate tunings and how to understand their relationships.
Your advices are very good. That's good to see gog guitarists like you doing instructional videos and communicating with other with less skills. That's one of the few good things of the modern era.
Além de me ajudar a compreender melhor esse instrumento maravilhoso que é a guitarra, ainda da um auxílio no meu inglês, já que nem coloco legenda para entender o que vc ensinou. Valeu KIKO!!!!!
Thanks Kiko for your beatiful lessons!! I play the guitar I've been playing for 10 years now and always i listen your advices!! Some months ago i went to your clinic in Verona and i asked you what are the most important exercises for improve in alternate picking, string skipping, sweep ecc you told me the most important thing is: play very slow and listen where you wrong and focus on it and keep practice !!! Yeah im doing ! Thanks again Kiko :)
Kiko, I picked up my first guitar at 15 .. Turning 60 now .. I would like you to teach me .. You are one the best teachers for guitar I have witnessed to date .. I don't have a desire to be as good as you .. Simply just a love for the guitar .. BTW, I have a 1996 RG 570 .. (Japan made) Love you in Megadeth .. Keep up the good work!
Thank you Kiko for explaining all of this in a very simple way. Actually there is a very thin line between practicing and playing. And I always used to skip it. This video is very helpful. Could you please do another video on how can I become better at lead guitar playing if I only know scales?
I think the reason I'm stuck in a rut is because I focus too much on playing and learning new songs, and how I try to get better is to learn increasingly more technical songs. Good advice, practice without playing is definitely helpful
Esse ano eu vou voltar a estudar guitarra. Eu já tinha visto esse vídeo antes, mas hoje ele me impactou mais, porque hoje eu me encontro justamente no que o Kiko falou, que é você achar que está estagnado e eu estou. Minhas composições não tem mais inovação (não sou nem 0,01% perto do Kiko em composição, mas eu gostava das minhas ideias), parece algo muito genérico e sem alma. Por isso, eu quero só estudar e parar de ficar tocando músicas que eu gosto por horas e horas como eu fazia, talvez tocar com uns amigos faça bem pra compôr e até pra praticar a tocar em pé, cantar ao mesmo tempo, enfim. Só sei que o Kiko me inspira muito a ser um músico de verdade, não que isso seja minha vontade profissional, será apenas um hobbie, mas eu quero muito ter esse conteúdo dentro de mim que jamais vai fazer com que eu canse de mim mesmo como está acontecendo agora. Agradeço muito ao Kiko por esse vídeo, ajudou demais!
Excelente video Kiko! Um erro bem comum entre instrumentistas é acreditar que tocar é pratica, tudo que te mantei na zona de conforto não te contribui para evolução. Abraço.
Fala Kiko, cara você tem o dom de ensinar irmão, sempre com incentivos e ideias úteis pra galera. Sou um bosta na guitarra, mas aprendo pra caramba com as tuas aulas, abraço!
Kiko, you know how useful is this for beginners or intermediate player. Is always good to find someone who plays in important bands that give some useful advices. Thanks!
Very good advice, great video. If you aren’t trying to solve problems, you won’t really progress. It takes lots of concentrated time and deconstruction of your playing.
As an improviser,I tend to paly what I practice and practice what I play until there's no clear distinction between the two.Thanks for the heads up and the nice licks!
One of the best masterclass I've ever came across on UA-cam. You have to continue making more tutorial classes like this Kiko.. and this time practicing and playing , you came up with a good concept brother.. Have a nice day !! Greetings from India 👍 -James
Mastering guitar takes a life time and even then more so. Thank you Kiko for sharing your secrets and your friendly kind attitude is refreshing. It is wonderful to experience your lessons and kindness to help us. I am not that great of a guitar player but to me it is therapy and I do it for fun as a hobby.
Congratulations kiko, you make a great contribution sharing things that some years ago nobody shared. Let me ask you some questions: *What do you think about music in Mexico? *Do you know Mexican metal bands? *What do you think is the fault with the Mexican metal? * What do you think of Carlos Santana?, here in Mexico always ignored and branded as an alcoholic, when he went to the USA his talent was recognized even with gramy. Regards and congratulations, you are a great Musician
Na vida do instrumentista existem dois grandes e contínuos tempos: o do artesão e o do artista. Estudar é a hora do artesão. Performance é o tempo artista. O artesão sempre vem primeiro.
Kiko, you are an inspiration! In your videos, you always take the extra effort to teach concepts, which helps students like me to learn something new everyday. Flying all the way from UAE to Yogyakarta to see you live for the first time on Oct 27th!
Esses vídeos são excelentes! Muitíssimo úteis! Você também é um ótimo professor, que tem didática e experiência sobre o estudo da guitarra! Maneiríssimo!!!
He makes a great point. I practice any technique that I find difficult. I'll just repeat it over and over, day after day until the nervous system starts to respond. I spend most of my time doing that. It sounds boring, right? But I've seen the difference. Beethoven's dad knew about this.
you're a kick-ass guitar player in MegadetH!! I've always loved the band and always will... your contribution to it is just awesome!! Greetings from Berlin, Germany
Perfect educational video. The way you explain things makes me feel better about playing, thanks. Additionally, your face looks like your jawline should have been finished earlier but god added some extra play-dough on the sides at the last minute -- hence the deep dimples.
I almost 40 i just play Kiko. With time ive come to realize that as important as my playing is my listening. I spend more time listening to other players and how they write their songs and then feed that into my playing
I`m going to take this advice for me, usually I just play so now, I´ll try start with some exercises and then have a complete rutine. Thank you so much!!
Kiko, you should do a video explaining how you started learning theory and all the notes and intervals. Help a beginner know how to learn to play solos and improvise
thanks for the lesson kiko! I appreciate your knowledge of music theory and implementation of it. I've never been one to practice if i cant figure something out i usually give up.
Yes I need to practice more to incorporate more techniques and music theory, I play a lot but am not going anywhere with my pentatonic scale boxes. Recently started to learn scales like the E Phrygian Dominant
I have 8 years playing the guitar and always do that, pretend that playing was practice, I have now 2 months practicing amd once I finished, start to play, and maaan, the improving is amazing, you are totally correct
1:22 Kiko:" So lets say you saw a *cool* *guitar* *player* play some arpeggio with string skipping"
1:46 : Kiko plays an Emin7 arpeggio with string skipping...
I see what you did there Sir...
Amazing video btw
lool
I was gonna say...
great video man I needed this
Now you doing just that.
awesome stuff dude!! I definitely need to focus on more practicing!
thanks!!
who doesnt :D
You , Marty Friedman randy Rhodes Kirk Hammett Steve vai and Eddie Van Halen are my guitar Gods !! U rock man I love dystopia y’all should come out with a new record 🤘🤘
Wow! Thanks to put me on this list
New record with Randy? That's weird.
@@Vic-f1t bruh
@@Vic-f1t eddie van halen too
how can you like Kiko and kirk hammett at a same time? Kirk is shit! is he have only one good guitar solo?

I want to play guitar really well but I just don't have the hair.
Hysterical!
I have the hair, but only got 3 guitars, so I will never succeed LOL
Me neither bro
Praticar = Olhar para os seus erros.
Perfeito Kiko, talvez até para todas as profissões.
Obrigado por compartilhar.
Your advices are very good. That's good to see gog guitarists like you doing instructional videos and communicating with other with less skills. That's one of the few good things of the modern era.
Acho que o Kiko nos ensina que um músico é um atleta também rsss. Isso é muito bom e coerente!!!
Além de me ajudar a compreender melhor esse instrumento maravilhoso que é a guitarra, ainda da um auxílio no meu inglês, já que nem coloco legenda para entender o que vc ensinou. Valeu KIKO!!!!!
Very useful video Kiko, really helpful! Looking forward to more tips like this!
This is great stuff, fantastic teacher. More of the lessons videos! Thank you!
Thanks!!
I play, been playing for 15+ years. I'd be a damn god if practiced all those years
same here..
*Marty Friedman created the best Megadeth solos and Kiko plays them perfectly. Respect !*
Chris Poland* created the best solos.
Politically Incorrect cough... Chris Poland...cough...
"conquer or die" to me is the absolute best
Godness... One of the clearest lesson i have find so far in the internet. Not only one of the best guitarist, but one of the best teacher aswell.
My favorite takeaway from this video is take a little bit of time to practice, and then go play without being analytical of your playing
Not about guitar, this is essential for learning anything!
Thanks Kiko for your beatiful lessons!! I play the guitar
I've been playing for 10 years now and always i listen your advices!!

the way you teach it casually. easy to understand. very helpful. thank you kiko. Love u
My whole problem...too much effort in the fret hand...being more efficient and with a lighter feel...great lesson.
Kiko, I picked up my first guitar at 15 ..
Turning 60 now ..
I would like you to teach me ..
You are one the best teachers for guitar I have witnessed to date ..
I don't have a desire to be as good as you ..
Simply just a love for the guitar ..
BTW, I have a 1996 RG 570 .. (Japan made)
Love you in Megadeth ..
Keep up the good work!
Practice is Practice! Playing is Playing!
Don't play around when it comes to practicing!
Stay 'tuned' for more puns!
@@loganknez3982 do you play or do you practice..........
.......what you preach?
So you mean while I'm playing I should stop practicing?
Because I suspect the other guys hate that.
And Brexit means Brexit.
Thank you Kiko for explaining all of this in a very simple way. Actually there is a very thin line between practicing and playing. And I always used to skip it. This video is very helpful.
Could you please do another video on how can I become better at lead guitar playing if I only know scales?
I loved this exercise, both the technical part (string skipping) and the melodic one (minor / major / etc). Muito obrigado Kiko !

Excelente exercício mestre
Thank you I never looked at practice and playing in this way
Muito bom!...Parabéns!...
Loved it .. Unfortunately I have to stop practicing and spend these last days playing ..
He makes a great point. I practice any technique that I find difficult. I'll just repeat it over and over, day after day until the nervous system starts to respond. I spend most of my time doing that. It sounds boring, right? But I've seen the difference. Beethoven's dad knew about this.
