I know Ramms+ein, Einstein and Hitler as famous Germans! Links 2 3 4 /
Hi, this is just the workout my left hand needs. I can't do it right now but I won't let it beat me. Thank you
@@ashu7pathak If you meant your comment as an insult, you failed! I'm pretty sure Bernth is Austrian not German. They speak German there and use it as their written language. They also speak dialects. Same deal with the German speaking region of Switzerland. They, in fact, speak a dialect of German but use Hoch Deutsch (High German) or standard German as their written language.
Thank you for all of your kind help with playin guitar. You’ve helped me a lot.👍🤓
omg i just started playing after 4 years and found you, i can not thank you enough man you teach the real secrets man i love you thanks a million
I know you said that these aren't the must musical sounding exercises, but man the second pattern has this crazy cool outside sound.
Look into the diminished scale, very cool sounding...pairs with minor scales for ascending n descending sweeps
I agree. Ain’t his lessons so cool
Thats a good statement and yes technic is not intent 9f melody. This repeating over and over is for second nature unconcious memory quite similar to chant and tcatile
WOW! Bernth I came across you almost by accident today. The way you break it down makes so much sense. I've understood the spider excessive to be important for warm up but this is a game changer. I am a fan for life! You are truly a master of guitar and thanks for putting out these amazing lessons and please keep them coming!
That second exercise sounds like some fantastic jazz.
The very first pattern you did I first saw satriani use, but he did it as choral movements. Never thought to break it down to single notes yet its been staring me in the face all these years! I thank you and keep up the vids
Your channel is a gem Bernth,thank you for all the advice and everything they have really helped me
The best online guitar teacher in the world NO JOKE i found this channel by accident
and BERNTH is the one that motivated me to go pick up my guitar AGAIN after 10 years of not playing it !!
one of the best techer on youtube.a modest man,thank you
Always awesome, Bernth!
I've been doing the 'spider walk' for over a month now, including alternate versions to target my weaknesses, and it has dramatic effects. I do 4 reps several times per day to not overwork my hand.
That second excercise looks beneficial, I'll get right on it, thanks.
The absolute shredding jedi professor, every class is a step forward toward faster chops. Thanks man!
Aula sensacional. Parabéns!!!
Loved that exercise. My “spider” was only going up faster. It is incredibly challenging training down direction.
This makes me get more serious about guitar. I’ve always had decent rhythm playing, but never could get my lead playing under control, never felt confident about it. Your videos have really helped me get my fingers moving the way I want them too. Amazing videos man.
Hi Bernth
I love watching your lessons for guitar techinique ,particularly the left hand fingering and thumb positioning.
I am really interested in learning these exercises to take my guitar playing to another level.
You are one of the greatest guitar players and teachers across the you tube landscape.
Thank you.
Thanks Bernth ! These videos are solid gold! You’re a good dude for helping all of us wanna be guitar players👍🤓
Another great exercise made even better by the great visual layout 🤘
I've really been improving a lot since I watched your channel !! inspiration towards discipline and constant improvement. thank u man greetings from Bogota
one of the best exercises for guitar fingers ever!for me its important to do minimum 4 minutes every day!thank you berth
I am struggling with the beginner exercise more than i'd like to admit, but I am excited for when I can complete your exercises!
Thanks Bernth for sharing all your knowledge!!!
I immediately subscribe after this lesson. This is what I'm looking for unlike others that i watched. This one is clear and the other continuous video is great its like a reminder always practice continuously the exercise. Great job!!
Welcome to the channel and thanks for the kind feedback! :)
I’m definitely going to put these into my practice routine, thank you so much 💃🎶💃🎶
I just discovered a few days ago and I'm loving your videos. It's time to get better. Thanks
Bernth, only found you the other day...really liking your videos so far, very informative and explain concepts very well, will probably make my way to your Patreon page some time soon, cheers!!
Excellent. I want to develop my speed and to keep it clean. I will start with the basic exercise and see how it goes. Thanks Bernth!
I like your instructions, I've learned more from you in just a few lessons, I'll be there for your videos.
Thanks for sharing, appreciate the positivity and detailed explanation/clips. Keep it up!
Thanks man!
You're such a great teacher 😊
Excellent and very helpful! Cheers, Bernth!
This was eye opening, so much control gained.
Finally, someone who explains the spider exercise correctly! 👍
What up Bernth! I just stumbled on your video for practicing. Your lessons are by far the most comprehensive, well thought out and clearly explained. Your an amazing musician and teacher! Thank you!! I will be purchasing your 10 steps course
This is something I've been looking for to help my hand development. Thank you for sharing. Thank you for the great video to illustrate what I need to be doing. OSZ
Great lesson! Thank you!!!
great lesson and great teacher
Quite exciting for this kind of technique thank you sir for awesome sample..
From Philippine
late to this video but this is actually pretty groundbreaking for my fledgling guitar journey. I've been trying to learn songs, picking styles, chords, the whole nine yards, but something just wasn't clicking. I had heard of this exercise before and even thought I had gotten it down, but I was never told why exactly you should do this exercise. This video showed me the proper way to do it, and now I can safely say after just a minute or two my left-hand technique has improved vastly. Thanks so much!
wonderful man love love love and happy weekend
GEIL! Danke Dir!
I knew I liked it even before seeing the actual video. I was right. Thank you for the great tip!
Great lesson. I have a problem with that too and even though I played for a long time, I don't take my time with a metronome and go slow at first and just go crazy at it which makes it sloppy. I have to discipline myself to do so. Plus, the resting of the fingers until needed is something that I have to get a grip on. Again, great lesson and thanks.
Thank you for your lesson
I consider Bernth Brodtrager the number one instructor on UA-cam. I'm currently am working with Steve Stine primarily but will graduate to Brodtrager as soon as i can. I'm obsessed. Thank you Bernth Brodtrager for cutting through the bullshit like a bullet and sending the structure and technique strait to my brain.
Thanks. Good exercises.
Thank you sir for teaching. Greetings from Singapore...
Not Bad Exersice! I startet to practicing it. It is realy Dificult in the Beginning! I had to watch the first Example over and over!. 👍 Vielen lieben Dank Bernth 💛
I love your lessons
Well, the first exercise shows I have about 2% independence in my ring finger. Feels impossible to move on its own
Just curious, how much have you improved?
same
Same lol I think mines like .5 %
This was just what i needed.
Thank you so much ❤❤❤❤
These are Great!
Thank you very much
This is the best left hand exercise in the history of left hand exercises!
Thank you, I'll have to try the second one. The one I was taught years ago was a 1-3-2-4 pattern where 1 and 2 are on one string and 3 and 4 are on the string above. You work your way up to the high strings in the same way as your first exercise but you are using two strings with each version of the pattern.
Actually I think I didn't tab this right. You want to go E:1-3 A:2-4-1-3 A:2-4
Dude this is huge!!!!!!!!!!!
Amazing, now I need to improve my right hand picking accuracy and I'll be golden
I love your videos! Very very well explained and shown goodies!!!
👍💥🔥🎸🎸🍿🍿
Excellent
The beginner exercise is great. Even after a couple of days just playing 1/8 notes at 100bpm I can really feel my left hand working.
Great to hear Duncan, thanks for sharing that :)
imo you are the best shred teacher on the interweb
Thank you for the awesome videos. I love this chanel🔥🔥🔥
So, noob beginner, just returned home with a cheap electric guitar. This is absolutely a challenge for my fingers - increased by nerve damage in my spine - but will try and add 5minute or more per day doing this exercise.
@Bernth - I have watched a few of your videos and subscribe to my mindset to optimise, and practice, but trying this a few times I realise the fingers will take time as dead strings is currently a major factor to overcome. thanks for making the content.
Deine Begrüßung ist immer super 😂👍🏼
Voll alles auf Englisch aber dein Name Bernd knall hart auf deutsch 👍🏼
A true master
I think you are German by the way you speak. Very strong, powerful and precise.
Thanks so lot brother..for your exercise..very² helpful for me..i will always saport for your channel brother..
Always watching ur video
nice lesson
Danke
Bernth, you are an amazing teacher and very patient and precise. I just started to learn guitar at age 39. I am taking private lessons with my son and I am always looking for great videos and expertise such as you provide to supplement my lessons because I want to play and shred like you do. One question though. Should I be placing my palm almost touching the neck or hang it low and really try to bend my wrist down and arch my fingers. I have small hands so these exercises are a bit tough because I accidentally hit the D string with my pinky.
The second exercise sounds like it's inspired by Jelly Roll Morton's "Finger breaker"....and perhaps for that reason it does sound musical...
The clearest explanation on spider exercise is another reason why I instantly subscribed.
Respect and Headbanging node from India. 🤘🤘🤘
Great
Started doing first exercise when Kiko Loureiro did a video about that...i did one modification while going upward it doesn't test well because upper string does not usually get mute so I started string skipping. The sequence became "e,G,B,D,G,A,D,E,A,E" Please give feedback what you feel!
It's second week of your 10 week program and I did very well improvement in rhythm playing.
Hey Bernth i really love your channel and your videos, i wanted to ask you during your practice routine for how long do you practice a specific exercise until you move on to the next exercise ? Thank you very much !
sangat berguna, thanks
Saludosdesde México, me interesa mejor mi tecnica, y me emociono mucho encontrar tu canal. Grcias
6:12 - *crazy advanced example*
Great 😍🤘🏻
hey Bernth thank you ,,,,I need to focus more
Ur my best teacher woahhh
Thanks for you video. I have the stupidest left hand in the world and it helped me a lot.
Sick guitar
Wow👍👍👍👍
wow thanks..new teacher 👍😅
Top shelf stuff dude
Da best
Your videos are always informative (some are beyone me, but hey, I'll get there eventually, heh). I'm just doing the spider one. I'm also doing it in the middle of the neck 'cause my fingers are having enough trouble stretching. If I start on the low E, and work my way down towards the high E... On the low e, all my fingers are next to the fret, and roughly parallel to each other. As I work my way towards the high e, my ring finger starts to work towards my middle finger, away from the fret. Also, my pinky starts to cock out sideways. It's no longer parallel to the rest, my nail is pointing towards the head, and the knuckles are cocked away from my fingers. Almost like it's too slick to hold straight, and it slides toward my other fingers. Is this just a strength issue, where it will get better with time or is it something else?
I really like about how you teach is
DU bist so ein geiler Typ ...danke dafür ^^
1:40 this exercise is the first fingering exercise of mine...but today it seems to be so difficult...i feel like i am play this lesson for the 1st time...
Hey Bernth, hope you are doing well. Thanks for another great video. I feel like I am learning just by watching your videos even when I am not close to my guitar. I HAVE BEEN SPREADING THE WORD ABOUT YOUR CHANNEL AND TEACHING ON EVERY SOCIAL WEBSITE THAT I VISIT. I noticed that your website feed has been popping up on Facebook since then too. I might be changing the algorithm as much as I preach your services. From content to delivery and then how much I am able to retain from them YOUR GUITAR INSTRUCTION IS THE BEST THERE IS ANYWHERE on THE WORLD WIDE WEB. Every single time one of the other guitar instruction sites comes across my screen, I refer them to BERNTH so they can learn for real, and I build you up. If you start noticing a big jump in subscribtions or new students will you shoot me a message? I am just curious, because I believe in your product man.
Thanks again, Ian
That second exercise is really tricky. Going to have to start slowly and work it up to speed.
Hey Scott, I agree - a real challenge, took me quite a while to get it ready for this video :) Great to hear that you will start slow, hope you have fun with it!
My sweep picking is subpar, I fear that more than the left hand fingering.
@@EclecticEssentric same😥 but slowly improving
New subscriber🙋
Jesus you teach like you had a lifetime experience in teaching industries. efficient...!!!
I like it
Oh crap that beginners one is actually quite challenging. Keeping your fingers one the frets moving one at a time. Have been doing it the other for years. After 20 years off and on of playing I feel like a complete beginner again.
👌
I actually find it easier to do the diagonal sweep-picking exercise than the fixed spider walk. Is that normal?! This is my first day with this technique. Thanks Bernth!
Kool beans!
