Chappers, Thanks for the lesson man, I only downloaded it about an hour ago and I can play it all :D now just to bring it up the speed you play it haha, you're an amazing teacher, thanks man!
Hey chappers, Just wondering in the first part of the circle of doom you descend the A mixolydian scale, My question is how come you alternate pick in this section?? But the rest of the circle of doom is economy picked? In the video you explain that you pick up, down, up and then down when you change a string.. Wouldn't it be better to pick down, up, down and then down again when you change the string.. Or is this section played with alternate picking just for a more aggressive sound?
is tht the esp horizon II thats over 1k$ im really considering buying it for my main guitar can you please tell me if you think this guitar is worth it thanks so much
sounds great, im buying a new amp and need your help. i have a jsx,xxx and a stiletto but want an amp that does sweet rock and metal and has a nice round tone like yours, im looking into a rectifier what do you recommend? the jsx was nice but i want a non-signature head
The part at the end of this lesson where you played the whole thing legato made me want to cry lol. I've always had trouble with getting notes to ring when I'm playing that kind of stuff.
chappers, i reckon it would be great if you did "how to play like" lessons,like.. how to play like hetfield-demontrate some hetfield style stuff how to play like satch etc etc. but don't bother with a how to play like yngwie
just do a lesson on sweep picking and general sound the same over and over again shite
Economy picking is way easier than alternate picking!.Satriani sounds awesome with economy picking and buckethead sound amazing with alternate picking! I'd love to be able to do both really well... but being able to alternate pick well... you pretty much need to spend hours everyday with a metronome to get it extremely consistent, and I just can't help but jam out a gary moore number for 3 hours. But Rob your style is very smooth economy picking suits your 3 note per string licks so.. ROCK ON!
I started out with economy picking before anyone even told me what it was, and it's funny how sometimes when I need to play a lick with straight alternate picking I fumble because I'm so used to going up or down by two strings.
I agree however, I believe in paul gilbert and others tha use alternate its like walking left foot rigot foot and so on and you dont go right right left whern walking? Also there is different in tone and feel and rymthmatic between the two alternate my opinion sounds more aggresive!
