Here's a nice pentatonic pattern inspired by the masters Joe Bonamassa and Eric Johnson that I'm using to try and imagine a more relaxed and fluid picking movement...

i hope you do more uncle larry stuff and breakdown his way of teaching! i keep seeing people doing homeworks on his videos but never know where to start!

@limpeacock573 6 дней назад

John, Great way to take Uncle Larry’s advice and make it into an applicable exercise. Thank you!

@akaerik1 6 дней назад

The Monday lessons are my favorite videos. Thank you for doing them.

@jamessharpe7407 6 дней назад

Thanks that’s a nice exercise. I’m going to add that into my routine. One thing I like to do that may help combat the rushing is to actually up the tempo but play as ⅛ notes. More clicks helps me lock it in. Once that is comfortable I try a triplet feel. Then I usually have to turn it back down to do 1/16 notes. Whenever I’m practicing scales etc I always run it through all the gears. Got the “changing gears” technique from Lead Guitar Workshop. Thanks again!

You never cease to amaze me with every video you just keep getting more tasteful and my mind is blown every time. Keep up the great work.

I loved Uncle Larry's video on intermediate players, too. I'm glad that you've been doing a series of videos walking through his points. You just got a new patron.

Another good practice idea is to start your picking phrase on other than the first beat of the bar, eg beats two or three will throw out your rhythm in interesting ways, and ease you into a variety of lick ideas as you phrase across the bar.

That was some great shredding up the neck during the intro jam!

Me: “There must be something wrong with this metronome. It keeps falling behind me.”

@innocentoctave 5 дней назад

Excellent lesson. I have a comment on your use of the metronome. I don't know how it sounds in the room, but I got the impression that your click is both too quiet and too slow. You need to be able to hear it, and hear it often enough that you don't lose track of where you are. This is more important when you are playing at relatively slow speeds. You are practising: what the click sounds like is irrelevant, but you must hear it. Secondly, you are playing 16th-note sextuplets. It might help if you were to set the click twice as fast - as though you were playing 8th-note triplets - and think of each sextuplet as two linked triplets (counting one-and-a two-and-a) with a stronger accent on the first and a lesser accent on the fourth note of each six-note group (you might even set up a second click on beat four, perhaps using a different sound). That links each group of three to an 8th-note of the underlying 4:4, which is easier to feel than a group of six, particularly over a slow 1/4-note beat. I also think that it sounds more musical than straight sextuplets with a single accent on the one. I also recommend giving yourself time - maybe eight bars - to hear the metronome and let your brain lock in to the rhythm before you start to play.

I wish I could play as well as you.

@wolframhohmann1300 6 дней назад

Thanks mate. Thats a great pattern. tried it out this evening, very slow. Will transcribe it into Guitar Pro tomorrow (just for me) and start to drill the hell out of it. But will always try to stay relaxed. Or like Tomo-san usually says: "Don't expect too fast, be kind to yourself"

@stuntkiwi 4 дня назад

It's all 5 of the pentatonic shapes, in the placement/order shown it's E minor but applies to any key, and major (just shifted one position). No need to transcribe, it's documented well on the internet.

Nice

@tribute1965 6 дней назад

Great stuff John. Clearly upward and then downward pick slanting on the first riff. Is that something you worked on, or did it just evolve naturally?

@TheDeugsy 5 дней назад

Hi John, just a stupid question but very important for me... i am working on your exercise but you use your middle finger to play on the 14th fret on the first part of the exercise. I am used to use the ring finger to play on the 14th fret. Do you recommend me to use the same fingering than you ? by the way, your guitar playing is very musical and inspiring

@alguitarchristie 6 дней назад

Can you make the video saveable please?

@RobCowie 6 дней назад

OMG....I've been putting myself through hardship all these years for nothing! I was doing these exercises, and I suddenly noticed your fingering... I've been squeezing my hands in order to use my pinky for reasons I can only explain as I must have forced myself to do that years ago trying to build pinky-strength, and now that's actually slowing me down a great deal further down the neck...ugh! Meanwhile, you're fingering makes way more sense...especially with the chunky mitts I have. Ok, well, time to unlearn what I have learned, Master Yoda...er, Cordy. 🤯

@Avatar7x7 6 дней назад

Are you slant picking with your right hand ala Troy Grady technique ?

@yonithys 6 дней назад

I don't think he is, because if you'd go for full downward pickslanting the first notes are all fine and easy untill you reach the high E string with 3 notes on it, at that point downward pickslanting will cause you to be stuck. I'm thinking it's either a neutral approach, or you can try changing the pick slant whenever the amount of notes per string is odd and keep at it when the notes per string are even. Another approach could be the Ynwgie Malmsteen way, where you'd use 1 hammer on or pull off on strings with uneven notes to make it even again. That way you can exclusively use downward pickslant where every string starts with a downstroke.

@turunturun 6 дней назад

To my eye it looks like he is slanting down when moving down the strings (toward the floor) and he slants up when moving back up the strings (toward the ceiling). You can see a subtle angle shift in his picking hand, to give him either an upward escape or a downward escape depending on the odd/even/upstring/downstring movement required. I never would have noticed it except I’ve recently started doing it in the last few months and it great helps the escape motion.
