- Hi guys, I want to share 5 Simple Steps that really helped me to improve my Legato technique with you. Hope you enjoy the video!
Just to clarify, my legato technique consists of hammers when ascending and pull offs when descending, even when using left hand only.

"Firstly, did you notice how clean that was? That's because I'm an absolute demon!"
Hahaha, true!

Flawless.... Damn Daniel!!!!!
He is not a demon. He sold his soul to a demon
@@bishalgiri7487 or he just practiced a lot and started off having a little bit of talent.
the muting technique comes naturally from playing a long time, but actually practicing it and being aware of it will help a lot of people play cleaner in a short amount of time....and that dotted rhythm technique without the picking hand is a game changer, thanks rick
My favorite part of all of the 5 tips for legato is......ALL OF THEM. I WANT MORE.
Mike G put watch some videos you will hear even good players with a tone of noise
was going to say essentially the same thing. It's funny, its just something you find yourself doing rather than consciously thinking about doing it. I think with time and experience, we tend to solve problems in largely an unconscious state and it becomes habit before we even realize what we were doinhg.
Where the fuck are Rick Grahams well deserved views? People need to share Ricks videos on Facebook.
Give this guy the fame he deserves.
I don't think most people know how much of a game changer the dotted rhythm practice technique is. it's everything!
The videos are worth it not only for the great lesson, but because of Rick being funny and entertaining. One of the best guitar players I've heard in my life.
That "some final points" thing is actually the most important part of the whole lesson cause it applies to everything not only legato since it focuses on the "how" to practice instead of "what" to practice.. Now that's what I call teaching.
I taught my gf how to move closer to the D and give her left and right hands a nice solid workout. Couldn't have done it without you, cheers Rick!
Rick - during the "tension" section, you said something "key" for me that has unlocked or unblocked my playing. Thank you for taking the time to share your skill / knowledge. I really dig your "sound" and feel of how you approach legato playing. Thanks!
I come back to this video every month or so just to watch number 3 and really ingrain that mentality of controlling tension and pressure. When you start to be able to play faster it's easy to let it get on top of you as you up the old metronome, and I think dialling it back and really being aware of the point where that control slips is crucial.
Very helpful, thanks. I've spent all my time working on alt picking and I discovered my legato is terrible.
Time to relearn!
rick...you are such a great teacher! you come across authentic and sincere. of course youre super talented. thanks for sharing!
I really really have to say......
I love that Natural wood look on that LTD guitar.
Nice Guitar!
what a beauty...
You mean ESP
Kshitiz Verma it says ltd lmao
YellowCharizar d check my videos bro, I too use an ESP that has LTD written on it.
Kshitiz Verma esp makes ltd
Your immature laugh at 1:44 made me laugh, too! Great instructional video as always, Rick. I've always been a bedroom guitarist hindered by my own "noodling" and procrastination when it comes to picking up the guitar. I always used to tell myself that I'd peaked but it was because I was too lazy to learn anything. Watching your instructional videos helps keep it simple and they're easy to follow, and most importantly they've inspired me to pick up the axe again and just persevere. It's crazy how much progress you can make in a night and sometimes you're left wondering "are these really my hands?" ha! Keep them coming; I - along with the rest of the guitarist community, I'm sure - really appreciate the time you take to put these videos together as they make for great learning, and also great entertainment. Keep them coming, cheers!
By far the best legato practice explanation I’ve seen yet. Thanks for not playing endless fills and getting down to what matters. So appreciated!
Great vibe to his lessons and teaching technique. Soft spoken, focused, and thorough. Great job Rick.
This guy knows exactly what he is taking about. Great lesson, thanks!!!
These tips have helped me in huge ways!
After playing legato with the same habits for years, this video forced me to reevaluate things. I tried out lining my thumb up with my second finger (I've always had it lined up with the first) and that alone has made me more relaxed and controlled. Not to mention the 'hammer-on-from-nowhere' is a super useful and fun exercise.
I'm going to pass some of this wisdom on to my own students in the future! Thank you Rick Graham.
So glad to see another video from you!
One of my favorite videos of yours. Your techniques have inspired me and improved my playing so much
“Common sense approach is to play faster. Which does work.” :) Great vid, loved that gem. Great subtle sense of humor.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge in such a clear way Rick
Excellent lesson!!!
I've been playing for over 20 years (holy crap!); and you sir, are one of the best teachers I've ever come across. Video and dialog alone is simply great. …Many techniques learnt or relearned. Thank you!
I want to thank you for sharing this valuable information with the musician community.
This is a great work you are doing here. Now time to implement these techniques. Thank you. You Rock Rick!!!!
Thanks Rock Graham, im using all your videos as lessons and im not feeling, but seeing the improvements in my playing. Thanks.
Great video Rick. Wise words indeed.
Thanks for sharing your techniques and advice Rick.
Plenty thanks, I enjoyed your lesson! Very very nice explained.
I just can't say how much better I ve been playing with ligato since I ve started applying these tips that you brought to us through this video, God bless you man, improved a lot my ligato technique.
I love it in guitar videos where the guitarist is shredding like crazy and just stops and goes like "hey, I didn't see you there. I was just shredding."
But seriously- this was a really good lesson
Best legato lesson I’ve seen. Thank you 🙏
Wow, extremely clear and effective! Immediately subscribed to your channel, Rick.
Thank you Rick, your lessons and tips are much appreciated.
Great exercises, I have added these to my daily routine. I am all for these focused lessons. Keep em coming please!
thank you Mr.Graham you are a genorous man
Very nice presentation Rick. So helpful. Thank you and Happy New Year !
You're a great teacher. No nonsense, thank you!
Great video Rick
Such a great lesson rick!
Great tips, Rick, thank you. Really useful.
Great lesson!
Rick your lessons are top notch mate! Good tips for this technique.
Great video Rick ....I hope you keep making more of these and I love the editing.,...
Fantastic lesson! Thank you!
A very clear and well structured lesson Rick..... thanks :)
Thanks, I love your videos, I just discovered your channel. I hope I'm not too old to learn this technique and I definitely want to incorporate legato into my playing. This video is a great place for me to start. Thanks so much 🙏
Solid tips in this vid, thanks again!
This is a really useful video; as a guitarist who's always looking to improve my technique I find it incredibly useful seeing techniques like this from somebody else's perspective just to see if there are any small points I can use to my advantage. Great lesson, Rick.
This exactly what I needed to understand. I wish all teachers were as prolific as you Rick. This is the old adage, feed a man a fish.....or teach a man TO fish. Thanks Rick!
thank you very much Rick Graham!!!just fabulous!!!Κeep up the good work and best wishes!!!
Your video format reminds me of the videos we used to watch in elementary schools in the 90's, and I love it.
*video of instructor being master of technique being taught*
"Oh, hey there, you wanna do this? I can do it because I'm great, and you can be great too"
*shows "how" to do it*
"See, I told you it was easy"
his voice is so soothing...like i could meditate while listening to him explain guitar stuff.
great lesson from a great bloke. cheers rick.
Wicked lesson, im gonna do the lesson this weekend. Need to build the left hand strength again
Thanks Rick. Great pointers.
You’re a great teacher. Thank you for not throwing any tabs up there to make it harder. I really appreciate how you broke this down for us. Would you please do one about sweep picking and break that down to the littlest of details. Thank you so much.
thank you for the videos Rick!
Keeping the fingers close to the fret board is awesome advise! I so too many guitar players NOT doing that and it is poisoning their skills! Less movement equals more efficiency! Trust me, I know it works better!
The final points is my favorite part :)such a very good teacher!!
wow that was one honest teaching, enjoyed every bit of it.
Thanks for sharing Rick. Starting now!
first of all thank you, I've been playing 30 odd years and always relied on my ear and maybe 30% sheet music, still I deem myself not learned nearly enough, I'm considered a shredder but what people don't really know is I rely on my God given ear and fast thinking improvisational experience. It inspires me to find cats like you who take the time to explain and not try to dazzle, you are correct, your great advice has to be patiently taken in and understood, which in this "I want it now in seconds" generation is tough to keep a hold of attention, I believe you're spreading your knowledge correctly. I will be a regular watcher, thank you. By the way I have several LTDs and I own a 213 and a 203, great instruments.
Very efficient and to the point.
always come back to watch this to reiterate my technique. love this one!
The muting technique and controlling tension parts have helped my playing a lot.
Another excellent video.
bloody good lesson mate! thanks for the tips!
Great lesson Rick,thank you so much for this!
A pleasure mate, cheers!
Good info bro. Thanks for passing it on
I just found your video and I think it's really, really educational. For newbies like me, I think this is the basic elements I need to understand. Thank you very much!!!
Very informal. Thanks dude!
Great stuff.
Great vid, clear and useful.
WOW! *IMPRESSIVE* LESSON, MR. GRAHAM 👍...
Mr Rick got one of the smoothest picking mechanic in the biz,I grew up with a lot of Steve Morse's stuff and I gravitated towards staccato,but I love seeing yall that can burn that legato... chill bumps
Thank you so much Rick for an in depth diagnostic tutorial. What you say and more importantly; ... "do" is very clear.
I will work on these techniques as an on-going process, .... leading to good habits.
Thank you for taking your precious time to help others.

Loved it! Rick Thank You.

Rick is just quicking ass ! The emotion he put in his music is great. Love his style.
