Rhythm is such an overlooked concept that in my opinion probably has to be the most fundamental concept of music. Just that intro about Lead and Rhythm are words of wisdom! I've been looking a lot more into it as I realize the importance of Rhythm because I was so worried about being the most technical and fastest player. Really great video!

Ahh that is indeed true my man. Without Rhythm, music would probably be a lot of train wrecks that go out of hand and control lol

Rhythm is overlooked? What the hell are you talking about. You're creating fake issues just to support your point. Any decent guitarist knows how central rhythm is.

I guess I'm more referring to the differences between Lead and Rhythm. People love the flashy and classic guitar solos, that usually it just overshadows Rhythm. But hey, I would suppose even Lead players would emphasize the importance of Rhythm.

I’ve never been good at lead guitar. Rhythm is the one thing that made me love playing music. I’m never going to be slash but when I can play songs that people recognise then that’s worth it. Don’t be ashamed of being a rhythm guitarist. It’s a great trait to have.

@@johnlennon193James Hetfield's rhythm playing is both a blessing and a curse to the guitarists like me that look up to him. He's the reason I picked up a guitar, but also the reason I've been playing for 3 years and can't play anything remotely resembling a solo.

I got another suggestion: Transpose and play bass guitar lines on guitar. It's a lot of fun and works well with syncopated lines common in genres such as funk and disco. Its amazing how well it develops your sense of groove and locking in with the kick drum. You will find your normal triad and larger chord rhythm guitar playing following the groove better and generally sound tighter.

I was self taught for about 3 years unti I got lessons. Once I did, I realized that my "skills" amounted to just about nothing when it came to actually sounding good. What I realized was the things that really catch the ear aren't fast or apparently technical, but they are subtle nuances learned through YEARS of playing. You can have a person who is a technically good player, but a guy who has a good hang of rhythm but not the best at shredding will undoubtedly sound better soloed.
@RickyD.03
@RickyD.03 6 лет назад
I know you mentioned this, but something very important about playing rhythm guitar is DYNAMICS. My teacher stressed this ALL THE TIME when everyone played. Loved the video, all these points were great. (And thanks for teasing me with that guitar I wanna win!)
@swaggerchegger98
@swaggerchegger98 6 лет назад
Dynamics are not that central in Rock & Metal
@RickyD.03
@RickyD.03 6 лет назад
Well yeah, maybe not as much in metal (but I don’t play any metal so I wouldn’t really know).
@swaggerchegger98
@swaggerchegger98 6 лет назад
The reason (and this goes for most heavier music like hard rock, blues rock and depending on your style even fusion) is the distortion. Since distortion/overdrive compresses your signal, you don't have many ways of bringing in dynamics. I think jazz, blues, funk and classical are the styles that benefit most from dynamic playing.
@sunburstshredder
@sunburstshredder 6 лет назад
Excellent point you made in the intro about the lead vs. rhythm thing. It's easy to overlook how the greatest lead players (Hendrix, Page, Dimebag, even Yngwie) are/were also incredible rhythm players as well.

@JCMJustin 6 лет назад
Really great video! Similarly to other comments, too many players focus on lead playing and being the best at that but when recording rhythm and being right with a click this shows their weakest point and it arguably is the most important aspect. Thanks for this video!
@BeatleJWOL
@BeatleJWOL 6 лет назад
Question: in this day and age of loops and backing tracks, is there an additional benefit to playing to a steady rhythm that's not a simple metronome click? Obviously this doesn't suit for all types of practice, but it might be a way to break the monotony.

Malcom Young is *THE* master of tip 7. Obviously, he's the master of all of these but, the way he wrote and played his rhythms to include space and variety in the same chords through dozens of songs, and still sound new and fresh? Nobody can be his equal in that regard. That's why Malcom Young will forever be the greatest rhythm guitarist of all time. Rock In Peace *Malcolm Mitchell Young* The G.O.A.T.

Hey sammy, 👋 what would you recommend I study to enhance my playing beyond basic chords (A, G, F, C, D in E standard) and power chords. Alex Lifeson not only solos like a boss but plays some very flavorful and icy chords. I'm honestly a better solo player than rhythm despite not knowing exactly what I'm doing. Just have had a musical ear. Thanks for any advice if you see this. Always great content.

About the metronome; You(possible beginners reading this comment) dont HAVE to use a “metronome” per say. To spice it up a bit in the age of technology there are all sorts of drum machines and programs for mobile and desktop computers. For instance, instead of a metronome that just goes “tick tock tick tock tick tock” You can(in 5 seconds) make a drum loop. Snare bass snare bass, sprinkled with a little high hat... and you got yourself a stew. Point; Use drum machines/loopers as a metronome.

Hey Mr. Samurai Guitarist..love ur vids..do you think u can try to explain to me how to get those kind of "scratchy" sounding chords while playing rhythm? I'm talking about those kind of "scratchy" chords that are usually played in old soul and R&B music..Thanks! If anyone else knows feel free to comment :)
@johnr8820
@johnr8820 6 лет назад
@galahad38 I think you might be right, sorry its kind of hard to explain. Like these chords that Clapton plays here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-VXasKYQnL6o.html Memphis style rhythm..its very prominent in Steve Cropper's playing on Otis Redding records too

@andromedasiddhik2792
@andromedasiddhik2792 6 лет назад
I think its merely strumming a muted string. This is simple yet so powerful and incredibly hard to sounds good. If I heard someone could play this part and sounds good, I automatically assume he is good on guitar.
@tyynymyy7770

A small mirror like that? I suggest proper wall mirror instead. You can make one from smaller pieces too and probably save some money. I think playing in front of a mirror is a really good tip, because we get the same perspective we have when we are watching other players. I used to do that quite a lot and found it useful in many ways.

Would you say a drum backing track is as useful to practice with as a metronome? It just feels cooler than listening to beeps
@MreenalMams
@MreenalMams 6 лет назад
Hey don't you think using the metronome always could make one rely on it too much.. how about internalising a constant pulse.. also using metronomes could make one always fixed on a particular tempo which may not be useful if wanting a more natural feel..?

As I was being a metronome with finger snaps for my guitarist today he stopped and told me to stop snapping.... I said why, I'm being a metronome for you. His response, "I hate metronomes."......... I said I play drums in the band, and drums ARE the metronome, so you hate me. He didn't really have a response for that.

Hi, anyone who’s reading this. I need help on a decision. I’m a 16 year old high school music student, I play different instruments e.g piano, guitar, singing,etc, and I plan to pursue music as a career, so I’ve been looking for things I need to do so. At my school, we use logic to produce music so I know the basics of music production, but this is on the computers at school and I don’t actually own Logic, my teacher does, so I’ve been looking for software I can install on my laptop so I could use it when I graduate and go to university or a music school (if I can get in). But they’re all really expensive. Logic costs £190 (I’m English so that’s around $240 for you Americans or $300 for you Canadians) and I don’t even use a Mac, so I’ve been looking into software such as FL Studio (also really expensive) and I can’t find any cheap and good alternatives. I can’t work without my grades dropping and getting tired, so I want to avoid expensive equipment. So that’s my background, and here’s my questions? 1) Should I get the expensive software (is it worth it?) 2) What software do you use or do you know of any alternatives that are good? 3) Should I just record directly into the normal audio recorder that is preinstalled on any laptop which would be the cheapest alternative (even though it’s harder to edit and you can’t multitrack or add effects)? I’ve been researching this for a while and I don’t know what I should do. Thank You

Hey Michael, here's what I'd recommend. Get a new audio interface from a authorized retailer. Here's a few recommendations Presonus AudioBox USB 96, Focusrite Scarlett solo, M-Audio M-Track 2x2. All of these go for 99USD and usually come with a basic recording software included if you buy them new. If you're just getting started either one of those should be enough to give you the most basic tools to learn and work with. I personally use the Focusrite Scarlett 2i2, which retails for 150USD and it works really well for what I do. As far as expensive software goes. I love Logic Pro and I think it is worth getting it eventually. But since you don't own a Mac and you are just getting started it is probably more sensible to go with the software that comes with the audio interfaces and upgrade later. - hope this helps!
