guitar lesson 26: Knights of Cydonia- Muse

[91Fick]

Just awesome



[them34]

Tips for people having trouble with the tremolo pick! Use you pinky finger on your strumming hand and anchor it just below the 6th string, by that i mean put in on the scratch board and keep with there. This helps with control and speed and you can also do this for beginner guitarist to help find the correct strings without looking.

[TheMightyTehin]

Thanks alot man, ive got to learn tremolo picking though

[TheMuseman26]

This is confusing!

[YerGynecologist]

[TheGunner444]

Anybody, I know how to, but are there any tips you are willing to share on how to Tremelo pick effectively?

[ShoutingRetard34]

@mateo1526274

its just really fast picking its not that hard. you dont really have to learn it :)

[MrHitman006]

Dude, I'm only a beginner who could only tune Twinkle Twinkle Little Star on the guitar!! This video helps me man!! Thanks... Could you do it for the song Uprising by Muse as well.....

[CrucialCheese]

Hi mate, great lesson, just a quick question, is the first part played as power chords, instead of single notes?

[Aeroboysmith]

[KEEpiiTSiMpLEE]

Thanx man this is a huge help !

[Smudge205]

[supermank16597]

Thanks

[kwyjiboy11]

Wow! I just learned the whole video in less than 30 minutes

[simonluigigreen]

Hey. How do you do the tremolo slide after the second verse part.

After the tremolo part on the high E-string and repeat of the riff?

I dont believe you showed that

[shileno8]

hey man there's a small change according to the LIVE version of knights of cydonia, where matt does some hammer-ons

could you get THAT tab

the thing i mean is on the intro, most notably the live in wembley 2007 or glastonbury 2010 versions

THANKS

[chillikking]

i can not strum that fst lmao

[gymrob]

This was my first song♥

you´re amazing bro and i learned it here with you :D:D

[eddysk8502]

[vekicar89]

Man such an awesome tutorial i was looking for it everywhere :D great job and keep up the good work :D

[gosthwriter]

I found this very useful, thanks!

[laulaurisj]

nice :) now i know a little bit more about this song. Do you play Guitar Hero 3? You should look in this game, because there is perfect rhythm in every song.

in that riff where starts - 5h-7-7-7 is a little bit harder rhythm: 5h-7-7-7-(rest)-7 ;) try playing with one more note in the end of these pieces of that riff! ;)

[A1PHOENIX]

THIS IS AWESOME!!!!! 

[Bilzzkile]

Wow

You are great !!! and Fast :)

[TVRobot1]

What are the pups in the guitar your playing?

[alakzam1998]

[TheLittleBag]

04:05 FART!!! ahaa, nice lesson! i loved it! =)

[MrJohnson91]

awesome tutorial!

im just left with 1 question, when tremolo picking, do you just pick really fast while playing the riff or does every note gets a determined number of picks?

thanks for keepin me rocking! (;

[Bluegamer94]

[orangeskittles12]

this is helpful, thanks!

[Geranimo901]

awesome tutorial dude! but i was wonder what about the part when he starts to sing "no one's gonna take me alive..." the part just before the triplets on 7:09 it sounds like bass to me but my friend told me that you can play that part on guitar too and i didn't see it here, correct me if i'm wrong but couldn't that part be played too?

[KeepingRockAlive]

@Geranimo901 Thanks for the question. in the song that part appears to be a synthesizer and not a guitar or bass. However I have seen people play that section on both guitar and bass so Yes that part can be played on bass. Thanks. Keep Rocking

[SenganMaster]

@KeepingRockAlive So would that mean Knights of Cydonia is alternative?

[Graffitichick1]

you should make a vid how to play through the fire and the flames if you no how to play it

[VmageNL]

what are your setting cuz it sounds way different if i play it

[XxX0Simpen1XxX]

Your videos are so good can't you try to teach us Supermassive black hole by muse on guitar too

[natnat57]

[BladeWal7]

Prety easy hmm (easy)

[DiegoTheCrazy]

DAMN tremelo picking is hard.

[Aprilfoolsgirl01]

i'm just wondering, what type of guitar would you suggest for a beginner to buy? I want to start learning how to play.

[KeepingRockAlive]

@Aprilfoolsgirl01 It depends on a lot of different options but mainly how much you are willing to spend, as well as style. Are you looking for an electric guitar or acoustic? Thanks for the comment. Keep Rocking

[IETR9610]

@KeepingRockAlive OMG o.o ty so much

[AnimationMaster67]

@KeepingRockAlive What Guitar i do you play?

[ivansilvaa]

@Aprilfoolsgirl01 buy a Stratocaster

[twasmuthguitarplayer]

@Aprilfoolsgirl01 you can buy some good cheap epiphones, i started with an epiphone and it costed about £120 but its cheap cos its a really good guitar and its and there quite nice looking guitars as well, i take it you already have one now though aha

[BuckshotBill118]

@twasmuthguitarplayer I have an Epiphone special sg model its nice too

[cmoreno1020]

@Aprilfoolsgirl01 a Fender Squier Tele or Strat are two pretty good guitars for beginners from what i heard...i have a black Fender Squier Tele with a Pearlized pick guard which really makes the guitar AWESOME...ive been playin for about 4 or 5 months but sadly the way my teacher tought me(with his own notes that he makes) i cant read guitar notes so i only know how to play a couple good songs..but anyways...good luck with your guitar and shtuff..lol

[pcgames234]

thats hard on GH3

[xxxUnseenSoulxxx]

@pcgames234 GH3's version of this makes it seem like you're playing everything on 1 string so it's 3x harder

[jeffymanking]

DUDE that was an awesome lesson i wanted to know if you could more muse songs

[jacklamborghini]

[KeepingRockAlive]

[sirhetfield]

DUDE! Thanks so much. I am learning the guitar, and this is great for finger work, and beginning solos. Also one of my favorite songs! Keep up the great work, I love the format.

[cjkeegan100]

beleive me when i say. this guy is definately worth subscribing to and checking out his other vids even if you have never touched a guitar. you will be playing each song like a pro cos his teaching method is spot on. just imagine how much cash you would have to spend to have a tutor like him at your home!! he is one of 3 teachers on yt whom i think is top. Sasktrum is a great. and so is marty schwartz. dont get me wrong i thank all for posting lessons. but this 3 the best ive seen so far. :)

[KeepingRockAlive]

I tremelo pick be moving the pick up and down. Keep Rocking

[jackyboy575]

you should do a video on how to improve your tremolo picking cause it's hard

[MrTalentedFrog]

^^ thats cool but I cant get overdub :'(

[magna378]

yo make a guitar lesson on black and blue by bring me the horizon
