    Most important point of this video in my humble opinion: Rich not hitting the right spot every time and adjusting his rhythm on the fly. He's human just like us and he shows us that you need to persevere. UA-cam often offer us videos with perfect takes but this here was super eye-opening. Thank you Rich.

      I've also watched some Janek Gwizdala's and Anthony Muharajah's practice sessions, and felt very good about my playing, because they show their mistakes and struggles. Many of these 5 minute playthroughs are a result of multiple hours of attempts...

    so you use the metronome in the first way to set the tempo and then you shift it in your mind along another dimension of expression to place emphasis and start your lick. tempo is the way everybody plays together, but emphasis is how you bring your own style in.

    I've been practicing time using this technique for almost a year now. It's a challenge to get the click in the right place in your head at first but it does get easier. Not many videos talk about the process of syncing up the click in your head so thanks for the information.

    Hi Rich. On guitar i vary the bpm i use and listen to the note quality and phrasing. Modulating the beat isnt easy. Number of notes either on scales or arpeggios can bring challenges, four then five notes back to four, eg.
    Additionally with guitar pick width can affect perceptual time. Lighter picks to me allow the hands to work better together. Im listening to each note quality so it sounds good.
    Thanks for this training.

    Hello Rich, greetings from Germany! It's always nice to listen to you. With many other online teachers, it's always just about even faster, even more complicated. But with you, the groove and musicality are always in the foreground. That is really great!

  • @ChrisFriesenMusic

    Hey there Rich, I really appreciate all that you contribute to the musical education space. You're providing so much value. Thank you. I've been working through these exercises with rhythmic variations such as tumbao over the "shifting" metronome. I'd be curious to see what kind of exercises you would offer for someone that is struggling to play legato over syncopations. I feel like when I stop notes from ringing my rhythm is significantly more accurate. For example, playing a major scale on Es and As with the metronome on 2 and 4 with legato playing feels like such a big bump up in my rhythmic confidence. Any perspectives you'd be willing to share (or from your community) would be very interesting.
    Thanks again. (From Portland, OR)

    Great video 👍 I've used 2-4 "backbeat" metronome for years but this takes it up a notch. Great fun. A favourite exercise of mine is to "own the one" without playing anything on the one to try make that silent beat come through un-smudged.
    One thing I like about metronome practice is you can do it anywhere there's a regular click or beep. I've even done metronome practice to the bleep of an ER heart monitor!

    I have a new bass, and a 20 year old closeted P-bass in good overall condition (light corrosion and spotting on metal parts), and 20 y/o rumble 15 amp.
    I was thinking of installing new pickups and bridge on the pbass. Also was thinking of upgrading the Amp. Maybe a new rumble 40 or 100??
    I can do all of this over time on a budget. What would you do in my situation? I am a beginner, teaching myself using hal leonard books and you tube. Possibly the amp would be more beneficial?
