      This definitely helps. I can definitely pick up the details much more easier. Not saying that I haven't had easy. I just see the steps more clearly. Before it was a blur when you play your music because, it's you music. And it rocks. But when you teach the steps for your music like this, it sounds more clear and it gives off a tutorial vibe then. Your finger goes and your finger goes here and here and then you pluck this string and etc. You told the finger placement and the strings very clearly that it makes so much sense to play the guitar how you taught, if that makes sense. :)

    Thank you man, you gotta know there are reasons people support you. Beyond being a phenomenal player, you're a cool dude but most importantly for how talented you are you are humble, and you don't give off that holier than thou vibe that a lot of dudes do. Beyond that you make it fun and exciting to grind on the guitar, practice is way less boring!

    This is pure gold. Thanks a lot for throwing this together. I’ve always played around with chords and finding things that go well together, but I’ve never applied the simple one string melody idea and expanding it with chords. Such a simple change that I think will make a huge difference.

    Hey Charlie,
    Great video again, keep it up!
    One kinda miscellaneous question, when you're doing either those quick strums or the stacatto percussive type stuff (it's hard to explain exactly what I mean, it came to me when I was learning your stop sliding riff the other day), I noticed sometimes you "strum" on the fretboard (i.e closer to your left hand) in some cases, whereas some other times you don't. When I tried it myself, it does sound a little different but is that why you do it? Because it also looks really cool hahhah. Whatever you can say on this would be appreciated, since I have been really getting into this sort of techniques!

    • @CharlieRobbins
      @CharlieRobbins  4 роки тому +1

      I was actually gonna make a video on this! But basically when you strum around the neck pick up, or even on the board. Around the G,B, and E string. It gives it a more percussive sound. You can also contrast that with hitting the lower strings and create a high and low sounding rhythm :)

    First you should wright a hit single at least 1 and then explain how to wright 1 . i hope this makes perfect sense . Second of all you cant teach someone to compose .

    • @noblerecordings3004
      @noblerecordings3004 4 роки тому

      ivan dzharakov *write. What does having a hit have to do with teaching anyone? If people enjoy his work and want to learn how he does things why not show them? I mean they are asking him how he writes. Also that logic means every guitar teacher and music teacher needs to stop teaching and release mainstream media level music “hits” to continue. Also in relation to that thats all teaching is, is showing someone tools to use to compose so that parts makes 0 sense. I think that before you can critique judge or direct someone especially someone on a different playing field than yourself you need to put yourself on an equal plateau or write a “Hit” yourself 😉
