Fast Rock Licks For Beginners (Guitar Lesson RO-003) How to play

[jukedar]

come on ya bloody wankas, you can do this!!

[galenrivera512]

This is one "slim" video. =p

[ZeppelinFloydRoses]

For all you beginners out there... Just play it extremely slowly while learning it. So slow you play like one note every 3 - 5 seconds. Then speed it up. You will learn it better and faster that way. Believe me.

[KakashiDominates]

Damn man

I'm having trouble with the pull-off part

I have to pluck (pull-off) the string pretty hard for it to make a noise

But i'm moving my finger down when i pluck (pull-off)

So it's hard for me to put it back on the 15th fret of string 2

How do i pull-off and get it to make a loud noise without plucking the string?

I'm sure no one got that at all

[theabgchannel]

I found a video by paulblackburnguitar on how randy rhoads would teach the pentatonics that really helped with my speed u should try 2 find it

[theabgchannel]

Also if u use tapping patterns it makes it sound like your super good when it's actually super simple :)

[iMPRE7ed]

Justin, continue the rock module, please.

[steerpike50]

GREAT site

[astcommando]

alright, beginners are you ready? xD tilulilulitilulidiiilititiii, that kind of thing.. :D

[Rafe281]

3 months? took me 3 years to get it up to speed!

[cryptichaxed]

[davideri]

your lesson inspired me in this solo..

[Smarkomatic]

[Dabomb1237]

3:21

Whatever you do, don't accidentally f*** that second string.

[VisualK3i94]

beginners? I've lost all hope.

[twister9893]

Thanks for lick, Russia will not forget you! :)

[DieSuperHigh]

@ihaque244 well if you want to start playing fast, this is where you would begin... I recommend looking at a vid of the penatonic scale and practicing it slow. that's pretty much what this guy is doing here. just a lil' advice ;]

[rickmcclure1229]

This video went viral on Madrid

[lorddarthstar]

That sounds like a song shit real fast! LOL

[4u250ut]

Im going to try it...thanks :)

[olimious1]

r u sure this is for beginners?

[jlsdjlsdjlsd]

Excellent!!!!!!!



[alexgordonfreeman]

That's the ugliest guitar I ever saw

[franvelert]

I have a question. I understand i have to practice it really slow, but... Should i increase the speed little by little until i play it fast or should i play it very slowly all the time until i become steve vai out of nowhere?

[ShuStarcraft]

@franvelert Start really slowly, and when you can repeat it a couple of times without mistakes, speed it up by a few bpm. Also you can try to play it very fast from time to time just to get your hands moving faster, but don't do it often otherwise you will practice the mistakes.

[gamerfulwiips3]

BEAST MODEE ON!!!! TNX <3

[ThEsOuNdSeViL]

Thanks....really easy i was playing it fast in 1 or two days ive been playing guitar for about 2 years now.

[xxdethdudexx]

what kind of beginners is he teaching.....O.o

[1995faceplant]

Cheers for that Justin, very good lesson.

[Dns2080]

9:50 : wtf?

[muhyatmarsudi]

thanks

[JCCH74]

Ur good

[DieSuperHigh]

"Otherwise you'll be playing well... You'll be playing shit really fast; which is not really what you want"

Perfectly said!

[jebfour]

This lesson was just was I was looking for. Thank you for posting!

I looked for the transcription on your website, but I must be looking in the wrong place. Would you mind posting the link?

[cascaso1]

fuck yes i just learned kirk hammet haha

[giomusic2008]

Great lick & technique Justin, rock on !

[jwalsh8]

@rfitz2u Well he is a guitar teacher by trade so im guessing he wants to make money at some point. I dont know how u can say a guitar teacher is selling out. That makes no sense. People throw that term around way too much.

[thestuffedshowback]

watch my cover of highway star!

[vigteo1]

@multipimpification cool story bro



[multipimpification]

kalb 78eer

[ihaque244]

this is for beginners?

[DieSuperHigh]

@ihaque244 well if your trying to play a fast this is a good place to start if you are a beginner...

[funofsk8ing]

@ihaque244 yep, very beginner only got 3 notes, 1 hammer-on and 2 picks in one lick... dont worry, you'll get better

[ZeppelinFloydRoses]

@ihaque244 If you play it very very slow. Like one note every 1 or 2 seconds, then it'll be way easier and you wont fuck it up when you play it fast.

[Ignore14]

@ihaque244 dude it's like 4 notes, you start slow then get faster. this guy is a pro and can do it very fast that's why it sounds hard.

[jimmyshitbags]

@ihaque244 it's not that hard really it looks / sounds more difficult than it is

[btowel]

Cool lesson- i needed this!

[The666Sadface]

lol so this is how the seek and destory solo is played... thanks

[lijk1]

this good stuff, really gonna be helpful for me. master this short lick and it will turn into incredible hammer-on skills

[therockandrollable]

begginer???



[rrrajiv1234567890]

When I try to pull it off, my index finger and the string sometimes come off the board :( I have a Squier Bullet Strat

[therockandrollable]

@rrrajiv1234567890 oh dear. ive got a gibson melodymaker lp

[rrrajiv1234567890]

This is perhaps the first time I have seen a guitar tutor sit cross-legged :D

[melkerri]

Excellent tutorial, easy, great tool for developing speed for the novice and amatuer. Thankyou!!

[supergirly24]

i got lost at tremtkerkfnd,sner,gkskrgslvkdr­n

[AbLaZe1slash1HaCkEr]

I think I got it nowhere near as fast as you though I'm still working on it thanks dude

[911xShadowlessx911]

i heard he fingered a woman once...R.I.P.



[kay4x4]

@911xShadowlessx911 I heard u cant come up with original comments several times...

[nice1centurion]

@wayofthewii think you missed the point..

[wayofthewicked]

@nice1centurion

[jpeezy124]

good lesson man, thank you. how long have you been playing for?

[jbrockett1]

thats easy and im only 13 i do that all the time and i play sweet hoe Alabama

[davie732]

@jbrockett1 Im 31 and ill never do that, just may quit playing and leave it

[ANOTHERHOLEINYOHEAD]

@davie732 with that attitude you will never get anywhere in life.

[davie732]

@ANOTHERHOLEINYOHEAD It was one of those days, you know when everything can and will go wrong, when i wrote that. Anyway im still a nooob and not anywere near that level yet

[ANOTHERHOLEINYOHEAD]

@davie732 Like the guy in this video said, speed is not going to come overnight you just need to get the technique right to begin with, then the speed will come in time.

[badbom92]

I can't see his fingers..

seriously

[davie732]

Nope thats way past my playing, i think i just stick to chords.

[FlapFingerboard]

well i think you got to cut your nails :D

[jeropage95]

240p.. we meet again

[GuitarFreakCroatia]

guys you dont have to play as fast as he does for fucks sake he is a pro,first play it SLOWLY,IT DOESNT MATTER HOW FAST ARE YOU PLAYING,because the speed will come after about a year of playing(me),just play this thing for about 5 min a day and i guarantee you will become faster,and I dont want to be a dick,i am just trying to tell you most common mistake of all guitar players,FUCK THE SPEED,IT COMES LATER.

[mortblack11]

@GuitarFreakCroatia your right.

[DaChongster]

WHAT THE HECK!!! I thought this was gonna be a video teaching me how to lick a rock really really fast!!!! Who needs to know how to play the guitar so fast that you'll get laid within the next 6 minutes??? JEEz!

[YohaneRockett]

show us what your right hand do

[muntificator]

Nice simple one , all you do is WALALLALALWLWLALWLALWLALWLALWL­A!

[slydog00a1]

Thank you

[ANOTHERHOLEINYOHEAD]

Whats with the otter and the end of this video.

[hweldo]

Thanks for the tip! Just started learning and trying to pick up stuff on youtube and will check out your web site!

[gUiTaRdAn96]

u could just fret tap that beginning riff real fast and that would be just as cool sounding

[BrandonCourage]

Paul Gilbert shows a very similar lick that he used for the same reason in 'Intense Rock'

[TheSpydera]

NEW YOUTUBE PLAYER SUCKS BIG TIME!!!

[ZeppelinFloydRoses]

it's not that hard. just practice it really really slow. and i mean fucking slow! then eventually you'll be able to play it right no problem.

[MrDeffmonkey]

i love it...justin you rock....

[Wolfyxxx91]

thats easy

[gingerninja7246]

@Wolfyxxx91 thats why its for beginners

[Wolfyxxx91]

@welcometojungle1234 read the description

[ciaran1344]

&welcometojungle1234 read the description :L

[welcometojungle1234]

Hello Justin,Could you also tell us which notes get the down picking and which ones get the up in the first example especially which would definitely make a big difference in cutting down the practise time if done properly.

[fingeroffang]

.....Sorry I meant the right hand.

[fingeroffang]

Be useful to see what the pick pattern is. I have more problems with the left hand.

[Elspagnolo]

i played this speed after 15 minutes

[makerdapro]

im a beginner and i played this full speed after 3 weeks :D thank you Justin!!!

[lourichie1988]

i really learned from you sir..thank to you.. ^_^

[anthonym40]

Hmm i though this was common knowledge. But great lesson btw.

[Danny980223]

Cool lesson but on the 12 is ur E not A but wtv great

[SwordsmanJung]

thanks bro!!

[rasmusnvt]

see this is something i can use. not some stupid exercise. this something you can take into your playing. thanks man!

[guitarb3ast7x]

@rasmusnvt lol dude I've been playin guitar for 7 years now..and you HAVE to take in those excercises they do more than you think and initially prepare you to get up to this kind of speed.

[rasmusnvt]

@guitarb3ast7x you are maybe right. but i have tried so many excersises that just did not cut it for me. so it is nice to find something that does. i just dont know any speed building techniques.

[RingsOfNeptune]

Beginner? hm, justin you've been playing since you were 6 right? I think you lost the idea of what an beginner is capable of mate

[Sweage92]

easy and sounds good when do it fast :) tnx mate :)

[ghosthunteranu]

AWSM! Thanx! :)

[jmaster5ful]

if you know the pentatonic scales then its sooooo frickin easy

[nlsonmandela]

yeah



[EsreverEmordnilap]

You have a Mesa Boogie amp... I want one. Don't care which one, I want one.

[kipokipo]

people who say that's hard don't practice a lot . It's easy to do that.

[bEsTiAnLPFaN4evah]

it is easy just practice practice and practice never quit...

[superguitarras111]

AND THE RIGHT HAND ??

[cristiovanni]

@superguitarras111 tipo usa uma palheta cima baixo cima baixo...

[CometShoot000]

how nice to put this lesson in beginners pack.

[TheOiabolo]

ffs i searched for begginers..

[wakeboarder860]

Uhhhhh i disagree with his statement, this will not fit as a mixolydian lick. Mixo is a major mode and this as a minor third in it. So unless you want that third to clash i wouldn't play this on a mixo song. Mixo is just a major scale with a minor 7.

[theoriginalbensteele]

@wakeboarder860 *flattened 7

[wakeboarder860]

@theoriginalbensteele It may have a minor 7 but it also has a minor third which makes it incompatible with mixolydian. Mixolydian is completely major except the minor 7. So I stand by my aforementioned this will not work with any of the major modes.

[CLELDKFKEJ]

how do i get my fingers faster? they already pretty fast... but i cant go fasster likke you nh and your page was a suggestion by some one who commented on my vid..

[Lemon5eed]

this is hard man

[579MikeN]

id say we fucked the second string indeed

[adrianmeekings]

Good historical references. Two many 'music tutors' on the net don't refer back to when they where still trying to learn. This has helped my confidence heaps. keep it up Justin

Cheers A

[74alicecooper]

How can people dislike a free lesson?

[rrrajiv1234567890]

@74alicecooper 122 motherfuckers want to be paid to watch one

[74alicecooper]

i once accidentally fucked the second string too :)

[74alicecooper]

i once accidentally fucked the second string too :)

[LMAO433]

Beginners?

[colour4music]

awesome^^

[billy26592]

that sounds like dave mustaines solos

[Jessup81]

Thumbs up if you think Justin should be prime minister!!

[zeppelin1996]

Justin this lick really helped me get into faster, heavier solos with more of a metal sound to them. When I first heard you play it I was thinking it was just a cool little lick that wouldn't really get me too far, but I was very wrong! Thanks to this I've learned several variations and new licks in the same style. Thank you very much for helping me to expand my playing ability and making me a more versatile guitarist!

[stupidityletsplays02]

Lol this isnt reffering to the likes and dislikes as im on ipod and cant see them but still i find it impossible not to like this guy he seems so patient and friendly xD

[DOGPOUNDBREW]

9:31 play shit reall fast..hahahahah

[ThePickleZebra]

you sound a lot like the guy in man vs wild

[Bless1995]

A lot of people these days either write comments asking for a thumbs up or its people trolling on other people. People, it youtube the video sharing site. not Youtube the "be a bitch site"

[mustangTNT]

@Bless1995 AMEN to that!!!!!!!

[adenoid]

Mind blown. Fingers broken. Thank you.

[a3wishine]

you are the best teacher in youtube ! .. thank you :)

[TheBfutgreg]

8:11 he's flipping us the bird

[21ryrunner]

@TheBfutgreg nope. i think just u. lol

[rabinsays]

and this is beginner, i need to quit.

[ieatmusic1]

@rabinsays it's just beginner because it's brocken down slowly and explained and fairly simple an idea, a beginner won't be able to play fast, just play slow for a bit then move to something else, then practice the same the next day then something else, never practice the same thing to long. you will surprise yourself one day, don't quit

[333690013409A]

@rabinsays Dont quit. It takes a couple of years to get to beginner but the lessons on this guys website will help you a lot. Especially the finger gym.

[rajmas1]

@rabinsays First start slow. The levels are set by the difficulty of the lick/riff/song, not by the speed.

[srefvik]

@rajmas1 Great stuff!

[rajmas1]

@srefvik Do you mean what I said about the difficulty thing?

[srefvik]

@rajmas1 I am not quite sure that I understand what you mena by your comment (to my comment); I mean the methode as well as the music thought here has a high standard. :) Very relevant, and at the same time easy (easy can be a dangerous word to use...) to follow.

[rajmas1]

@srefvik I meant to ask that, if you agree with the comment I said, the first one. Anyway, it's not EASY in the start :)

[srefvik]

@rajmas1 Not easy when speeded up, but a great three note idea that can be used in very many different ways. A good exercise as well a great tool for developing technique and improvising.

[44xtreme]

@rabinsays

for a 1 or 2 years, you are gonna made licks like this yourself.

just learn it slowly, and by time, you're going to be faster.

Sorry for my bad english.

[PrEdAtA91]

whats is to dislike about this vid? some people are so dumb! this vid was amazing dude =)

[alucard123death]

1:06-1:09 i had to pick my jaw up it dropped to the floor!

[rrgert4]

when you play that fast.. do you strum down up down up or just down ?

[S4B3RTOOTH]

no sir, you are hip! :)

[TheArcticMonkeyz]

something to practice, thanks justin

[Pierceher]

@HoegenGuitar get a guitar.

if money is the problem, get a cheap one :)

[peepers471]

When I pick the 15 on the B string as im pulling off im getting the open B. How can I make it so when I go from the B string back to the E that theres no open B?

[deadfalcon2]

how long do u have to practise this for... ive been doin it for 2 months and i still sound really shitty

[CeelsUK]

great lesson - you're the man! Thanks, I'm gonna practice this \m/

[0527morris]

anyone else think it was cool when led zeplin used his guitar as a violin????!!

[197syahnur]

This is kinda embarrassing but what is lick?

[redlynx69]

@197syahnur A riff, or just a little cool sound you can quickly make on an instrument, i.e 0:52-0:55.

@redlynx69 okay thanks, and what can we do with a pentatonic scale -.-
