I’ve been following you for over 5 years, and have applied the knowledge you provide and my level of playing has improved tremendously. I have a strict practice routine everyday. And you are right it’s not what your practice it’s how you practice. Thank you for the hard work you put into these videos!!🤘
I've been playing guitar for 7 years. Have been stuck for about 4 years. No progress, confused by medocre/hard riffs, almost lost interest, telling this isnt for me. Started watching your videos 2 months ago, implemented all the stuffs you taught, my skills skyrocketed. Thank you mate!
I've played for 25 years and discovered your videos maybe last week. I only learned from tab so having the exercises actually explained was very helpful. Thank you.
When I stumble across sweep picking techniques by other people I'm always amazed on the approach of those. It's true for you too. I got a completely different sweeping motion, pick handeling, muting techniques with both hands and I even include string skipping in regular sweeps. I started out sweep picking with no lessons, nobody could teach me this and the internet weren't a big thing at the time...at least for me, so I came up with very unique techniques for this by trial and error, teaching it to myself. Always a pleasure to see the same result with very different approaches from very different people. Amazing video, keep it up 💜
Download all your exercise video play-alongs, tabs, backing tracks, and guitar pro files for this video here: www.patreon.com/bernth - happy practicing 🤘
A protip from my practice: struggle with a tricky part from a cover/something you composed? Make it into an excercise: record the backing track, transcribe the part in MIDI and program it in your DAW in increasing tempos. Of course it won't replace your technique excercises but it's still fun to master something that actually makes sense and which you can use right away
They do that because they ARE already PROS but if you want to become a pro you have to go through the exercises unless you are planning to play random on your couch your whole life. @@jfo3000
I find it hard to stay inspired sometimes. I feel if I can’t play guitar for 4 or so days my learning regresses about 3 months but this very unique approach to improvement has me going again! Thank you 🙏🏼
I’m a new Patreon member and so pleased with all the lessons and advice! I’ve been stuck in a rut for years and really appreciate the work you’ve done in these lessons for us ! Practising this stuff will really move me to the next level! Thanks Bernth!
I will definitely subscribe to the GOLD VIP level one in the next couple of days I am very new to this and know nothing yet about guitar and I already bought my first Ibanez JS 😅 I am really hoping that between Bernth help & lessons and hard work practicing i will improve my guitar skill techniques REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO IT LOVE from an Algerian 🇩🇿 FAN
Bernth, I just wanted to say that while I enjoy the style of music you play, it is not the style I want to learn. But the beauty of your channel is that your tips always include TONS of stuff that is useful to all players, no matter the style they prefer. thank you! did I somehow miss the random German word?
My god I am almost 40 learned chromatic exercises at 14. No one ever got it this specific. Got faster more endurance but always felt like I was hitting a low ceiling Bc I didn’t know these specifics. You either have a great teacher or you are one. Gave up guitar late 90’s and became a full time drummer Bc my guitar playing had hit a wall was driving me nuts. Now I am middle aged and getting over a lot obstacles Bc of the internet- small town local teachers only can get you so far that’s all we had in the 90’s. After 2 years it was hard for me to find anyone to learn anything from they all taught stuff I could figure out by ear. Finally starting to progress over the hump- technique is good but I am more concerned with finding my own sound at this age. I stopped wanting to play super fast when I got sick of listening to it, I think the day comes for us eventually. I still respect it but I want to learn to play more melodic played fast my whole life. I have seen prog guys very famous ones struggle to hold a bend for a few notes- that’s when I realized fast isn’t the only technique we have to practice. A guy who shreds effortless then bends and drops the note “shwek” shakes his head like an amateur would! I like metal, but prog metal ehh it’s getting stale and a lot of these guys are sloppy as hell just play so fast no one realizes. Slow down your liquid theaters listen carefully lol. I had a tape deck that slowed down held pitch in the 90’s there has to be an app like that right? It might be a sad day when you realize your heroes don’t hit every note and no one has any freaking idea- at least not on albums prior to the auto tune era. Certain players have always been sloppy and overrated though- Page maybe the most of all time but his riffs were still killer. Just don’t try to learn heartbreaker note for note without guessing some notes. Or do like me play the first few bars and the end make up the middle.
By trying the first exercise in this video, I just realized my ring finger is dead 😅. It barely responds while trying to move it. Been doing this exercise for some time now, in the wrong way. I taught I had it under my belt, now I`m reconsidering. This is challenging, but only with challenges we grow! Thank you!
i came back after watching the video this morning- i used to practice 1234s down a chromatic slightly differently since it was meant to be more of a picking hand exercise- however, after having had 3 ~10min each runs of the spider exercise i increased my 1234s speed by 20bpm when playing sixteenth notes! now, i dont think this is gonna keep improving like this, but just in one day of practice the improvement of my fretting hands' coordination increased incredibly! i totally recommend people amend their 1234s to include the 'spider walk' as it is so affectionately called- you really do feel something just clicking with your motor functions when doing it, but i did have to go down around 30bpm from my usual 1234 speed, but dont worry, its effective!
Dude, you're a god. I have improved more by watching your videos and practicing the way you teach in a month than in years of just fucking around on the guitar. (starting to actually use a metronome helped too, admittedly lol) Thanks man
Great tips, thank you. Also, something that has worked for me is to take a moment at the end of the practice to have fun with some music I've already learnt. That makes me feel the progress better and keeps me motivated to continue practicing.
"You aren't supposed to sound perfect in your practice and if you always do, you might not be pushing yourself or getting better" maaaan this is what i needed to hear!!
YOU sir, have single handedly corrected a decade of bad technique for me.....which was the entire reason for my tendonitis. I corrected, and so did my elbow. Thank you and GREAT channel.
Dude your skill level is impressive. I just started learning to play guitar and wow I had no idea how hard it would be. Everything feels so foreign and out of place. I’m enjoying it and planning on sticking to it. I appreciate your videos they do an awesome job breaking things down.
Interesting how his improvisation tips is almost close to the way Paul Gilbert writes his solos. He said he first thinks like a drummer and drums complex and interesting rhythms on the back of his guitar, then writes the rhythm down and ads tone and melody to each hit. After that you breathe in and out while playing that thing you just wrote and every time you breath in you hold whatever note you were playing and start shredding again when you breathe out so it becomes like natural musical phrasing that's alive and not just shredding craziness. BOOM, amazing solo done! So I can see why the rhythmical limitation is useful as it does the same interesting effect AND since you're rhythmically limited you have to compensate with more interesting melodies so it makes sense even from a psychological perspective... Amazing advice honestly, I'll try it tonight. 😊👍
I really appreciate you teaching us so many important things that no one else bothers to, filling in the gaps in our minds is a really good as we learn new things
I like that Bernth circles back on subjects like this as he grows and gets better. He's had like two others on this subject before, but each video, the content gets better and the reminder is well warranted.
Awesome. Arthritic mastery is my new goal. This is my new daily morning workout. I have to play guitar early in the day so my hands will not be stiff and painful throughout. The importance of this is IMMENSE!
unfortunately i wasn't aware that you need to have giant spidery octopus fingers in order to play guitar so i just spent several hundred dollars on an instrument that's physically impossible for me to play with little baby carrot fingers
Just because you don’t play metal doesn’t mean you don’t need sweeping. Imagine playing some tasty blues licks then adding a quick sweep. Dynamics buddy! Creativity aswell! Lots can come from learning different techniques
I've been stuck at the same skill level for YEARS. I've spent that time focused on writing music, but not developing my guitar technique. The music I wrote was ok. I'm happy with it. But I want to write better music. I'm now realizing that when it comes to writing music, I'm limited by my guitar skill level. Your channel has inspired me to put in the work and really tighten up my playing and expand my understanding of the fretboard. Danke schön!
HOW THE HELL do you manage to upload the perfect solution video the exact time i begin to struggle with the topic you explain?!? Thanks for the upload man, amazing work as always. I really haven't found a better guitar teacher than you.
I started to play electric guitar last month, and I feel extremely lucky that I found your channel. After I complete the very basic concepts, I'll definitely join the patreon community. Thank you for inspiring me.
I’ve been subbed for a few months now . I’m also a part of your Patreon so thank you for that making that nice and affordable it’s much appreciated. I actually was having this thought today about improvisation and I’m glad this one came up in the algorithm it’s working!🤘 everything you went over is exactly what I was going over in my head all day today and it’s making a lot of sense so thank you. I know this feedback is pleasing to hear so cheers🤘🤘
Amazing video, such a great teacher you are! Would love it more if you slow more down and the exercises cause sometimes this beginner can't really follow or catch up.
Wow I love your channel. I believe that I have an amazing guitar teacher, however from time to time I do struggle with an issue and your channel is helpful
11:23 this is so true, it took me a while to realize that it's not possible to sound perfect at 100 bpm if you never pushed yourself to play at 120 bpm even if with a very sloppy playing for example.
Exercise 2 give me a breakthrough: improvising with a fixed rhythm allowed my mind to focus on other things and I found it much easier to jump all around the neck.
Man you are a very intelligent dude I don't know why it took me so long to discover you but everything you say makes perfect Sense, your approach to obstacles is beautiful and truly inspiring my friend, keep up the good work
Thank you Bernth, you're a good teacher. I use some of your excercises even though I play jazz guitar; most of them are too advanced for me, but I tried the "spider" and my fingering and speed have improved after only a few days. I was one of those doing the spider wrong all these years!
Subbed... I've been playing for over 15 yrs and ur exercises still help me a lot. Something I couldn't play before I can now play ... Thx for your exercises
Bernth I love your videos and your an amazing teacher and guitarist. I would really appreciate if you can make a video about selective picking like the technique tosin abasi uses a lot.
Finally found a channel who showed how to hold fingers position in a right manner.Before I was confused that which way I should keep my fingers whether diagonal or straight.. But my fingers are paining and struggling lot more once I tried to keep in straight as u shown.But I will practice and give a try.. moreover my fingers are short not long 😢
I've found that composition, especially trying to emulate specific artists (one at a time, once each and then moving on), has contributed to ease of improv. The other major thing is playing other instruments... it gets you more focussed on the music in your head than the rehearsed licks available to you.
Best teacher I’ve come across on here. Some of what you teach help reinforce concepts I already know but you’re exercises to master technique and your teaching regarding improvisation is unparalleled. Thank you very much. You are going to play a direct role in helping move to the next level in my journey towards more guitar mastery. Cheers mate.
You helped me with holding my pick! I can now play to the best of my ability with multiple right hand positions!(Still a novice but small improvements are motivating)
Well I'll be damned. This video both damaged my ego, and got me so excited to play more. You pointed out some pretty big holes in my technique that I never noticed.
What made right hand alternate picking speed click for me was just a TON of Fear Factory and Divine Heresy. I used to play that all the time before, and Dino's riffs and just jaming along made me able to, at least, riff very very fast
Damn! I've been doing the chromatic exercise wrong all along! Well, maybe not wrong but the easier way of doing it. And the improvisation bit was spot on with my situation. Thanks! New subscriber here and i think i will stay. XD
Hey Bernth, ty 4 awesome lessons! Also got a ❓ would you ever consider an online jam session with Ola❓ Already asked him! Think that would be must watch❗😎🤔 cheerz

@@jfo3000 definitely! There's no time for exercises when you need to master a 2 hour set in a handful of rehearsals.
Blue steel strings duh those other ones are for pussies
@@jfo3000 no
They do that because they ARE already PROS but if you want to become a pro you have to go through the exercises unless you are planning to play random on your couch your whole life. @@jfo3000

Same. I recommend the patreon
I am 53 years old and FULL ON METAL. I've played since I was 12 and I am now making great gains on my guitar.
Learning guitar in my late thirties and these videos have been SUPER helpful. Thank you for all that you do!

Ima be honest now..
This guy is the only one who helped me fix my flying finger
Best online course until the next one. Respect.
this is the best guitar Chanel I’ve seen in my 10 years of playing guitar

I just play guitar 3 weeks and your exercises I dont know how, but just watching you playing them I understand better how it works)

I taught I had it under my belt, now I`m reconsidering. This is challenging, but only with challenges we grow! Thank you!

YOU sir, have single handedly corrected a decade of bad technique for me.....which was the entire reason for my tendonitis. I corrected, and so did my elbow. Thank you and GREAT channel.
I only started playing guitar a few weeks ago. I study alone. Of the educational videos on UA-cam, your teaching style was the best. :)
how is it going brother?
I tried the straight hand technique and it made navigating the fretboard a lot easier I'll be checking out more of your vids
Just now picking up guitar and you’re videos have been very helpful thank you 🤙🏽
Dude your skill level is impressive. I just started learning to play guitar and wow I had no idea how hard it would be. Everything feels so foreign and out of place. I’m enjoying it and planning on sticking to it. I appreciate your videos they do an awesome job breaking things down.
Been playing for 20 years and never heard of that first one. The spider practice routine. That’s awesome.

Great video and tutorial I think the spider techniques are definitely the most helpful for shredding and learning speed on guitar
I'm all in! Been watching your videos for awhile now and definitely appreciate the pace and breakdowns of the lessons
I like that Bernth circles back on subjects like this as he grows and gets better. He's had like two others on this subject before, but each video, the content gets better and the reminder is well warranted.

Nah you got this !
Sell the guitar and find one that suits you better
fingers don't matter much since the flexibility of our joints and tendons are very good, so keep playing until you don't feel uncomfortable
@@eightinnn I conquer
GIGANTIC L on this comment ….Seems like all you’re missing is a dose of confidence sir or ma’am

Man, your channel save my guitar road
I'm not a metal guitarist, but these tips are gold! Sure, maybe I don't need sweep picking, but every tip here will make me a better guitarist.

You are amazing, thanks for the awesome tips Bernth! You make taking on such a complicated instrument so much easier to understand!
One thing that insanely helped me with right hand speed bursts, was learning the pattern of Bleed by Meshuggah.

Awesome great. Playing guitar. So sound great audio. 👍.
Thank you for your teaching sir💖💖
bernth thanks u solved problems that i didnt even know i had
this was fun, and for a beginner gives me some great ideas about the next steps, subbed!
BRO I just can't. My pinky finger is so small lmao
Same here :(
No excuses !!! Keep practicing
so are you able to play guitar now?
Bernth vc é incrivel gostaria de ver uma mini video aula de guitarra vc é sensacional
Just what I needed. Great lesson mate.
Subbed... I've been playing for over 15 yrs and ur exercises still help me a lot. Something I couldn't play before I can now play ... Thx for your exercises
I love your lessons. Always fun to play along to. Thank you for all you do
Wow keeping all fingers on the fretboard doing the spider is crazy hard.
Excellent elegant exercises. Thanks for sharing! 🤘
Bernth, the tips that you are sharing here are so crucial to getting to that next level. Keep up the great work - happy shredding!
I liked the repeated rhythmic figure exercise idea. Also liked the other ones. Thanks.
Bernth I love your videos and your an amazing teacher and guitarist. I would really appreciate if you can make a video about selective picking like the technique tosin abasi uses a lot.
You're awesome man, thanks for all the hard work
