honestly try to play the intro to "miles of machines" by jeff loomis, thats finger twisting bull shit..alternate sweep picking is harder than up&down ascending scales...
som of the greatest songs ever written are the easiest to play. By the way who said that something has to be really difficult to play to be good? Honestly I have never heard someone say that in all my years.
@therockhouse yeah i know that. i didnt say it was bad i was just thinkin it was funny how they kinda exagerate how hard it is. its comical. chill out.
that guy is so fuckin lame!!!!!!!!!!! its not fair that half the people on youtube would smoke this dude an hes makin instructional videos! my lil bro jus started playin an got one of his videos an its fukin weak dude! even for beginners!! Laaaaaame!!!!!!!!
lolz at the chromatic ascending major sweeps. i dont want to do that. its sloppy and doesn't sound good. this guys needs to get his left hand and right hand in sync.
Oh I almost forgot, he also has a column METAL RISING in Guitar Player Magazine, a tech column that runs each month on Musicians Friend and will begin in two in October having is own column in Premier Guitar magazine.
John has 30 DVDs, 12 books,2 kids books On his CD Drive is Doug Wimbish, Will Calhoun, Leo Nocentelli & Bernie Worrell. He trained these guys to teach: Alexi Laiho, Jeff Loomis, Michael Paget, Alex Skolnick, Eric Peterson, Leo Nocentelli, Kiko Loueiro, David Ellefson, Oli Herbert, the list goes on check the web site., He writes & appears on instructional products offered by Peavey, Washburn, SX, Ovation, Silvertone, Ibanez . 750,000 beginners learned with him last year.Sounds influential to me!
Love the lead guitar DVD. I saw the short peice on sweeps on your youtube and had to buy it. I learned more from that 3 minute clip than I have watching hundreds of other youtube lessons. John McCarthy truly tought me how to sweep.
I love your operation, I love what you guys are doing, and I hope to see more of your products around where I live.
I got Hands of Steel and Learn Rock Guitar and it has helped me tremendously. I cannot afford lessons but John McCarthy is an excellent teacher anyway! I've learned so much in 1 year with your DVDs.
Thanks so much and keep doing what you guys are doing! Believe me, people out there are so thankful!

I don't think the tone in this video does this guy any justice. Sounds a bit too thin to me. Technique-wise he's sound.

@TheHorrorInside he's got to over react so that way McCarthy doesnt sound like shit compared to Loomis
Cocox2 1 year ago 2
@TheHorrorInside That's just because Loomis played so fast, the guy didn't even have the time to process it.
