    The fact that you make every style of playing look absolutely effortless while giving one of the best explanations of the pickup selector switch has earned you a subscriber. I will admit, even after playing for 25 years, I still don't notice much tone difference in the "medium-rare" and "medium-well" positions unless I introduce scoop and chorus effects.

      Thank you for watching and comment. You notice the difference more when you use distortion or overdrive. Especially between the bridge and neck pickup.

    Thanks Harry! Watching this video made me confident that the bridge pickup is my style!
    Also at 5:45 you said "I would use bridge pickup" but your pickup selector is on the 5th position

      Hi Valeria, thank you for watching and comment. Oh yes, I said bridge pick up when I meant to say Neck Pick Up. You're the only person spotted it. People like you who pay attention to details can be good at lots of things. That's what lots of people lack of. I teach lots of students (in person as well as by Skype) everywhere. People who pay attention to details are the one that always get better. Improvements is not to be waited but to be created.

    Sir in this very video of pickup selector, there is a very good style in which you played a guitar just for ten seconds, you played in between min 3:44sec to min 3:54sec it's in 4/4 time ,please sir I have really liked the "string picking pettern" you used and I 100% request that you make another tutorial explaining to us how to learn and use that string picking pettern . I'll be waiting ,Thank you.

    Hello, great video! I have a Fender Squire 50th Anniversary Strat in Tobacco Sunburst. Can you please tell me if the 5 selector pick up switch has a setting for the bridge pick up only? I would think it would be in the lowest last position but it doesn’t sound like it is. Maybe it is not working properly. Thank you

    • @harrysguitarstudio
      @harrysguitarstudio  Рік тому +2

      Hi, it's hard to say without hearing it, but that's how it should be. You can select that position and touch the pick up with a metal little device like a screw driver or a key to test it if it makes a noise, otherwise open it up and check the connector and make sure everything is connected properly.

    As a beginner what pickup selection level should it be on? Or is it about preference?

    • @harrysguitarstudio
      @harrysguitarstudio  9 місяців тому +1

      It is about sound taste. But if you're playing clean, the 2nd position the bottom would be my choice. Keep rocking!

    • @harrysguitarstudio
      @harrysguitarstudio  Рік тому

      If you mean how to improvise, i'd say learn as many songs as accurate as possible to train your ears and techniques, then learn the cord concept, scales and arpeggios so you understand how to apply those in your own playing. Maybe it's time for me to make that video.

    Hello!
    I would like to know how James Hetfield, in live shows, changes between clean and distortion using guitar switch and probably combined with pickup setup and pedals backstage? Just to know the whole process. Thanks

      Yes, I like that too. Don't forget that 50% is from the guitar and amp and another 50% is from the player.

      You're welcome Lana. I don't know where you are at the moment level ways, so it's hard to answer, but Major Scale from every mode is the complete scale to play almost every genre of music.
