dude you made this video draaaggg !! you could make the same video but with less babble in 30 seconds and everyone would still get it. just stop talking lol ;)
Any advice on speeding up my trills or any exercises to speed things up? I've been playing for 4+ years but my trills, particularly between my first and third and first and fourth fingers, are pretty slow and don't seem to be getting better with work. :(
id say just try speeding it up just like everything else take a metronome start at a comfortable speed get use to the speed if you can do it well and controlled at that speed bump it up 5 bmp eventually it will get fast
if that doesn't work well maybe your problem is you need more strength in your fingers cause the 3rd and 4th are pretty weak to begin with maybe you should keep doing trills with those fingers as strength exercises... what i do is get my ipod touch and use it as a stop watch and trill as hard and fast as possible for a minute strait it wears down your muscles pretty quick you can also do a combination of keeping your first two fingers holding down while you trill with the 3rd.. hope this helps
Practice going up and down the fret board or from string to string with your pinky and ring finger. Do this enough and your muscle memory should kick in soon enough
I have no patience to hear your trill. You go on such snail pace. Could you demonstrate the real thing at the beginning before you go down to your slow motion mode?
you wanna no someone crazy at trilling Tony Iommi! dude yngwie maybe fast but he just does it on one string tony does it just as fast but fucking every where. he does trill slides, trill pentatonics, and double trills so if you wanna get good practice tonys stuff his shit will give you work out look up heaven and hell on the live evil album the big giant solo is TRILL BLISS. good lesson by the way you blab on and on a little to much and not enough show.
some people learn slower than others...you do realize there are still little kids learning to play guitar and they might not get it by just looking...kids are getting dumber by the ages...
You're a good teacher, but it really shouldn't take 6 minutes to explain a trill. If the person doesn't get it in 1 minute, then they aren't good enough to play it honestly. Not saying I'm a guitar god, just saying they're simple.
To get good at trilling... listen to Yngwie Malmsteen do it... I've never heard anyone else trill as fast as he can... also Steve Vai, not quite as fast, but he has great phrasing with his trills (and everything else)
i thought it was gonna be more complicated but its just hammer ons and pull offs...was looking at a betrayed tab (avenged sevenfold) and it said trill so i was confused..this help tho =)
I love it man. I do the same thing when I'm helping teach someone. Everyone can't play quickly, some people are very new, so its better to err on being too simplified. If you can't remember what it was like learning, right handers, flip your guitar and try playing.
I'm glad you actually take it slow and explain what you are doing. I hate trying to learn a song on YouTube and they say "Well, you do this" then they play 1,500 notes and don't even tell you what they're playing.
i am an inexperienced guitar player (about 2 years) and i found your statement "these are your effects (hold up your hands)" to be true with any guitar no matter how many effects you have (compression, wah wah, distortion, flanger, overdrive,etc.) if you can't play anything to start out with it those effects don't really matter

Thanks for the tips! I think you are right... I feel pretty confident I've narrowed down my problem to a weak 3rd finger.
I'll give your suggestions a try!
ProdtheMod 2 years ago
I play trills at a decent speed. Try to use the penatonic scale in A. Works great for trills. Also use more of a solid slap with your ring finger.
