I believe in myself again as I used to think I wasn't smart enough to play fast . Now , thanks to you , I have a renewed vision for being able to shred like I've always wanted . Thanks again , I hope you become mega -rich as a reward for the insight you've taken the time to provide us on UA-cam !!! God Bless you richly my friend !!!
Thanks for watching the video. I hope you'll consider subscribing. The book I mentioned in this video is called *137 Guitar Speed & Coordination Exercises* (geni.us/guitarspeed). My latest book is the *Thirteen Week Guitar Technique Bootcamp* - geni.us/bootcamp1 Both books come with 90 minutes of video content.
Thanks for this excellent video Chris. As far as I’m concerned, the more talking the better, so don’t apologize for that. Diving deep on how to get a reliable fast tremolo on a single string, and overcoming common obstacles to that, could be an entire video I feel.
Great stuff, thanks Chris. What worked for me building speed was to just go for it, slop and all, then work on what was causing the slop....pick geometry and such. You don't become a better sprinter by jogging. Also I've pretty much ditched the metronome and just tap the foot instead, I feel more connected to the pulse with my body than listening to a click. Everyone is different, just have to try everything and see what works for you.
LOVING the Alchemy series! 137 is a great book and going through the bootcamp book now. Nonetheless, I'm ready for your next book whatever that may be!!
Thank you for this video !! I am going to check out your book, too ! I appreciate that you offer so much knowledge for free . I do take guitar pessons but I like to learn as much as I possibly can. I think your exercise sounded brilliant and really musical rather than boring and tedious !! Thank you for doing so much for guitarists 🎸. Rock on 🤘
Of course, dude! I know how much time you've put into this, and you are sure to help a lot of guitarists 🎸! I've played around 20 years and I have always wanted to play Dream Theater solos as John Petrucci is a big influence to me . I also love Syu from Galneryus who plays neoclassical metal and they play songs around 170 beats per minute 😅 I can play them at half speed but I cannot achieve full speed at the moment
Thanks Chris, Your pick or plektrum how many millimeter thick is it? My is 1,5 mm Dunlop ,Im playing very fast with my nail, but the pick i stuck, and slow, perhaps i must play more practice..
In this video I'm using the YJM 1.5 Dunlop, link in description. Many years ago I built my chops on the 1.5 and mostly 2.0 Delrin 500 so I switched back recently for nostalgia and testing purposes. I grabbed an Yngwie version cause I thought white would be useful for the video.
Oh, I deffo can't help you there. I do 100 takes and then decide the second one was the best, but I keep going cause I feel like I have to earn it haha. Seriously though, looped recording does help me just bash out a dozen takes in a row without stopping and starting, and I'll either decide it's in there, or compile two takes that were close to right.
@@ChrisBrooksGuitar Got it) even if a guitarist like you makes a lot of takes, what can I say about amateurs like me. In any case, thanks for brilliant lessons 👍👍🤘🤘

Thanks Abe, I appreciate that!
Awesome insights, thanks. It's a pleasure to learn from people that can talk it and walk it.
Glad it was helpful!
Those 6 note bursts used to really catch me out in your etudes in previous books, a fun challenge.
Good ideas about technique, clearly explained and expertly demonstrated! Top-level teaching as always, Chris - thank you!
Thanks mate!

Thanks for the positive feedback!
I'm excited! Chris has an excellent method of coaching 😎

Much appreciated. Thanks for sharing what worked for you!
I like to use the radio too, I can always find a good endurance exercise no matter the song... ;-)
Thanks Chris! Great lesson.
My pleasure! Thanks!
Such great advice Chris 👌🏼 I’ve waisted so many hours of practice trying to get speed with the slow repetition exercises.
Thanks so much. Best of luck getting to where you want to be!
Looking forward to this episode
Great tips!
Thanks!
Most effortless picker Along with Rob Marcello... best
Thanks man. I love Rob.

@ChrisBrooksGuitar I will be sure to share your videos with guitarist friends of mine 😊
Much appreciated
Is this something that you'd ever practice with the volume knob and a slapback echo?
Repetition is the mother of skill.
😊super Chris you are the "king of speed" triplet🎶
Paganini would be proud of you!😂🎸🎻🤘👏
Much appreciated!
Do you have any dvd course?i love your work ,love your books but i prefere dvds or videos.Great job Sir.
I just opened my video course "Viking Shred Guitar Suite" - www.guitar21.com/viking-shred-guitar-pre-launch
@@ChrisBrooksGuitar wow great news:-)because you are amazing teacher.
@@przemyslaw1235 thank you so much, really appreciate that.
❤🎸🎸great lesson
Shawn Lane was the master of this approach

This one was fun to watch, I play a similar thing. 857875 857875 857875 The 3rd group being triplets. 🔥
I also used that one in the book and in one of the small clips you see in this video. It's a good figure.
@@ChrisBrooksGuitar oops haha
Chris, I'm not more concerned about speed, but about how not to be stupid and not to make 1000 takes after the record button is pressed 😂😂
Oh, I deffo can't help you there. I do 100 takes and then decide the second one was the best, but I keep going cause I feel like I have to earn it haha. Seriously though, looped recording does help me just bash out a dozen takes in a row without stopping and starting, and I'll either decide it's in there, or compile two takes that were close to right.
@@ChrisBrooksGuitar Got it) even if a guitarist like you makes a lot of takes, what can I say about amateurs like me. In any case, thanks for brilliant lessons 👍👍🤘🤘
You'll always want multiple takes, just for different reasons. At this stage, I'm trying to capture what it sounds like most of the time. Thanks!
Hahaha 👍🏻
👍👍👍👍
Who let the dogs out?
anyone else feel there pickings good for anything it’s there left hand that’s a lazy shit?
It's not an uncommon issue. I'll be doing some fretting hand stuff soon.
