    As beginner guitarist and huge ghost fan, this is just what I was looking for. I noodling around with some scales and stumbled on a “WTF did I just play?” moment. Then I found your channel and sure as shit, I was on to something. You helped me hone that “wtf” moment. Ghost rocks.

    hey, huge ghost fan here, however i cannot read tabs for the life of me and i rely pretty much entirely on tutorials and finding chords by ear. i am VERY glad to have found this vid because i somehow managed to learn (i say learn but nobody taught me, if they did i wouldnt be in this mess) almost this whole song, with the correct sound, but completely fucked technique, so i’m gonna try and retcon that HAHA
    just. placing a band-aid over a fucking TRAINWRECK here, don’t mind me. ANWAY, i’ll be subscribing! usually trying to understand ANY kind of explanation of tabs leaves me with a migraine, but i notice there’s none with you, and you have a little more of a ‘show’ than a ‘tell’ approach, which i can definitely appreciate. it helps a lot, genuinely. i am VERY tired! will update later, i guess :’]

      Hey sorry I totally missed this comment but thank you for the support! I’ve always tried to approach my lessons as if the viewer had booked a one on one lesson with me. That’s how I would want to be taught and I’m glad it seems to help people out. I’ll probably add tabs in future lessons, but they’ll just be in addition to this format already!

    I have such short fingers and it’s such a pain to play

    • @NickPerezMusic
      @NickPerezMusic  Рік тому +1

      You'll get there eventually! Have you ever heard of the Spider Scale exercise? If not it's essentially going 1-2-3-4 on each string (tho it doesn't matter which frets you use as long as they're all next to each other). This tends to help my students of all finger sizes increase their strength in their left hand, so maybe try working on that for a little bit? Plus the main riff is literally in that Spider Scale box, so it'll make it even easier to play! Hope this stuff helps and best of luck!

      I do not have the full song tabbed out unfortunately. There seems to be pretty popular demand for that so I’m going to start working on it, check back soon. In the mean time, my “5 easy ghost riffs” video has a pinned comment that will bring you to some tabs for a few ghost riffs, including the main riff for square hammer. It’s not the full song, but hopefully it’ll help to some degree

    • @NickPerezMusic
      @NickPerezMusic  Рік тому +2

      This was all recorded with the Bias Amp plug-in. There’s another video on this channel where I walk thru making that exact tone. Working on a video about how to dial in the ghost tone with a couple of amps, one of them being an orange crush. So far, I’d recommend using less gain and more mids and having a humbuckers in the bridge position of your guitar!

      Just keep practicing and you'll get it :). The main riff can feel tricky but is actually a great exercise for guitar in itself. "Easy" is probably more for intermediate players onwards. For beginners it's a great song to start practicing as there are not too many parts to remember, but a few tricky stretches that will really help with your playing. Maybe don't bother with the solo until more confident and you can play the rhythm straight through without issue. Another good one to start on is Cirice. Sounds heavy as anything but isn't too tricky.
