"I guess i should practice that one a little more" No Rusty, you messed up intentionally to try and make us believe you ate human. Not today, sir! Lol... i seriously hate to love this guy. He is a phenominal player, no doubt. But man, i wish he was a little more... modest. Btw, after i saw this video, i threw my guitar off of my roof in frustration.
i have a hardtime seeing the specific frets for these shapes with ihs lightning speed, if anyone knows them and could send them to me thatd be relaly cool
Playing slow bluesy licks with a big wobbly vibrato then switching to fast shred argeggios to me is what 99% of players think is 'feel'. Personally i think the only 'shredder' that feels it is Steve Vai. Thats my opinion.
@00sven00sven00 Olympic by paul gilbert, altitudes by jason becker. Those two songs should open up another 10 guitar players to you over the next few years.
Most get stuck in the vai satriani bubble and think that's as good as guitar gets, there's so much more out there :)
Number one, I see a lot of dumbasses didn't take a look at the description, and number two, it took me 10 times wathing ylthis video to fathom how ones hands could move so fast.
"emotion" and "feeling" are for those with little theoretical knowledge of music beyond the pentatonic scale. this is the general consensus, because, generally, people don't know shit about music.
@SWAGassNIGGA Eh you cannot be a true master of your instrument with no feel or emotion connecting you and your sound. However Cooleys on a more advanced level of guitar so he doesn't show his feel more that he shows his virtuosic talent instead. Which is fine because even in his slower parts you can see he has a good vibrato/bend. However this is the case for 90% of shredders these days. Just look people up on youtube.. A lot of people suck. you've gotta have balance :p
@SWAGassNIGGA whoa hold on there man. i agree all this "feeling" bullshit about shredders is fucking retarded. but being a music major, ill say that the feeling/emotion thing still has to be there, or else whats the point of all the theory? cus theory is just a way to better express whatever it is your trying to express in music. at the same time though, ill agree htat everyone hating on this dude, yngwie, etc. probably is just a shitty musician and would feel better if they didnt suck at guitar
@SWAGassNIGGA May I correct: you've just proven you know shit about music yourself. Luckily, there are guys out there who have chops AND "feeling". Unfortunately, Rusty isn't one of them. As for you, I strongly doubt you've got one or the other.
@LOLPombaer If you happened to be so inferential as to read between the lines, i was implying that the general populace doesn't know enough about music or listening to it to comprehend emotion out of anything beyond intermediate blues playing; not that music should be void of emotional substance. Reference my previous comment if you wish, as I made no claims towards Rusty Cooley's emotional value in his playing, or my own playing ability. Read before "correcting" next time.
@SWAGassNIGGA Yeah, you're talking yourself out of it now and all. However I did take your advice and read - it still says "emotion and feeling are for those with little theoretical knowledge of music" because that's the bullcrap you wrote. But of course, what you meant by that was something COMPLETELY different. Ain't life a bitch Joe, wherever you go, you get misunderstood.

the only thing that gyps me about this guy is he apparently studied theory but will profess to play say "E phrygian" or a mode when he is unacompanied SO CARNT BE A MODE!!! arhhh winds me up
What these illustrate is technical exercises. Take what is taught and work it into your techniques and then compose music of your own and input them so they add to your songs and not just sound like useless rambling.
@WeveGotNoTimeToLose Well... He says it's in harmonic minor, and he says the groupings. If you don't know even basic theory, you need to learn that before learning anything from this will even be remotely usable. It's a note grouping lesson, not a scale lesson :P
If you're incapable of learning from this man who "couldn't teach a dog to shit," then why would you even want the TABS?
Just move-on to another video (by a different teacher/player) who wouldn't mind holding your hand...errr...uhmmm...handing-over their TAB to you for each drill/motif - LOL!
He does show emotion... It's just different. Without emotions, he would be dead. Rustey Cooley is one of the best guitarists out there. Emotion in music is relevant, different for everyone, so that bullcrap "he has no emotion," is completely stupid.
Ahh! Rusty you sure got the technique down but you bore the hell out of me.What i would like to see though are these licks put into a solo,over a rhythm and the real challenge would be to make them stand out as if there absence would make you fell that the song couldn't stand alone without them.Sleep on it.
I'm pretty sure economy/ alternate picking is a matter of personal preference. I can't alternate pick to save my life, but i can use economy picking just as well or better than some of the guys i know who have been playing longer than me. But then watch gilbert or any of those other guys they burn there guitars with alt. picking. In the end its up to you.
my english is really bad,please tell me something...when i touch G A B individual notes i use fingers 1 3 4...is this correct?? please answer me, i´ll thank you
theres a point to where playing too fast stops sounding good. believe me, i am all about shred, but this guy is too much. I like to see him play some good sounding stuff. I hate the sound of seven string guitars too. That octave if B is too low for my tastes.
@Seagerash why does every jazz/funk player tries to bash on metal? seriously wtf, can hardly hear what he's playing? check your ears man, and you're bashing on his guitar position? holy crap you talk like you know every possible thing about music on your channel but apparently you don't even know that's te position classical guitar players are taught to use, if you don't like metal, don't come bashing mr poser troll
@Seagerash You're really ridiculing the way he holds his guitar? Really? As for the overdrive part, I can hear what he's playing just fine, I'm not really sure what your problem is.
This guy is amazing. I hate it when people say that there's not emotion, I mean, do you really think all he does is just play super faster (faster than you), NO! Pretty much all shredders can play the emotional stuff too. And besides, isn't it a little impressive that this guy can play at lightning speeds while still staying in the correct key and mode?
Haha! I love the video description "PLEASE - NO bulshitting about feel or emotion" - Yeah really that "where is the feeling and emotion" thing is becoming some sort of a plauge
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
amazing technique but honestly just sound like a machine gun. For example, Reb Beach shreds with amazing tapping licks which is terribly great and melodic. So old school metal wins and rules!!!
its funny cause he tries to play slow, but he eventually goes like, fuk this, and just starts playing faster when hes supposed to be playing slow. haha, rusty is awesome like that
Ah man, this is a great video. The very first bit is great for guitarists such as myself that are just now seriously getting into lead guitar such as legato and sweeping, that really helps making scaler runs sound melodic and not so robotic as it would with a more basic rhythm.
lets be serious 95% of guitar players are nowhere near being able to play that stuff haha therefore...this isnt much of a lesson but more of a "oooooo....ahhhhhh"
Yeah, like, I can pick fast like Rusty and sweep or whatever (not as fast of course(YET!), synchronization of both hands is the hardest part of that style) but if you were to tell me to play a funk blues rhythm I'd have some trouble cause I never practice that style. Or even within the style I AM used to, I can alternate pick just fine, but I can barely economy pick. Damn, I guess I need to practice a lot more...
You should put a lot of effort into economy, it ca really open up your mind and give you time to invent your own new licks since it's such an untouched way of playing
People like to learn bits and pieces of economy but it really clashes with the way they're taught to play and nearly all give economy up after a month or so.
And economy isn't needed to play fast, this video shows that. It's all straight tech stuff.
Quite honestly, if you need to use economy as a function for speed then your technique is already malnourished
I agree that economy picking is not needed for raw speed, but it can facilitate smoothness of picking.
So economy is useful in strict sequences like arppeggios, but you sure as hell cannot improvise with it.
The only way to increase speed in real terms is to conquer legato, since it removes the need to pick entire groups of notes and also creates a very smooth texture in lead lines.
But again it depends on the sound you want, i prefer the raw bite of picking for the most part.
@digitised You can have real economy in improvisation, all you have to do is learn note compensation so that you can economy pick lines with even notes of numbers as well as odd.
Shawn Lane did it with a single pulldown, Marshall Harrison uses hybrid picking compensation, 'rescuing the pick'
If you play an upstroke and have to play a note on the string down from it next, you can use your finger to pick the first note on the next string.
The pick upstrokes and your finger pulls up, the motion of the pick upstroking actually makes a lot of the finger movement, it's incredibly economical.
This buys your pick time and decreases difficulty, it also changes the number of notes on the next string so you can correctly keep economy picking.
@gitarmats not really unless you have prepared licks of the same style that you would be "improvising", actually playing completely new stuff with economy picking is pretty impossible
@digitised That's total BS. I am a strict economy picker and I don't find it any harder to improvise. I just learned to pick by economy, it comes naturally to me.
i dont understand why people bitch that hes fast least he shows what hes playing and people are just jealous that they cant play like this this guy inspires me to play like this and i believe its possible with time an effort and of course belief
i dont even attempt it if he acknowledges its difficulty

its funny cause he tries to play slow, but he eventually goes like, fuk this, and just starts playing faster when hes supposed to be playing slow. haha, rusty is awesome like that

Ah man, this is a great video. The very first bit is great for guitarists such as myself that are just now seriously getting into lead guitar such as legato and sweeping, that really helps making scaler runs sound melodic and not so robotic as it would with a more basic rhythm.

The Harmonic Minor is the coolest scale in the world.

Phyrigian dominant is pretty rape, too. Of course becuase it's a variant of Harmonic Minor.

Lol when he's playing the legato section he still moves his picking hand along with the notes like he's picking them in his head.

Moving the picking hand whilst still playing legato is to mute unfretted strings.

lets be serious 95% of guitar players are nowhere near being able to play that stuff haha therefore...this isnt much of a lesson but more of a "oooooo....ahhhhhh"

we'll you could play it slowly...?

If you were able to play to this level already then it really isn't a lesson.
Truth is, even the most developed players will have no technique in areas they have never played before.
Masterful players who can play nearly anything will be equally as powerless as a beginner when they move to new things.
Ask a god of alternate picking to play economy and watch them not even hit a note right.
If a lesson doesn't truly challenge you then it's more of an inspiration instead.
SO PRACTICE!

I totally agree. PG is an exception to that though!

Yeah, like, I can pick fast like Rusty and sweep or whatever (not as fast of course(YET!), synchronization of both hands is the hardest part of that style) but if you were to tell me to play a funk blues rhythm I'd have some trouble cause I never practice that style. Or even within the style I AM used to, I can alternate pick just fine, but I can barely economy pick. Damn, I guess I need to practice a lot more...

You should put a lot of effort into economy, it ca really open up your mind and give you time to invent your own new licks since it's such an untouched way of playing
johnaiton 2 years ago
@johnaiton in what way is economy even an uncommon way of playing, unless you're a complete freak you need economy to play even medium-fast.
dmcgraye 2 years ago
@dmcgraye It's just the truth man
People like to learn bits and pieces of economy but it really clashes with the way they're taught to play and nearly all give economy up after a month or so.
And economy isn't needed to play fast, this video shows that. It's all straight tech stuff.
Quite honestly, if you need to use economy as a function for speed then your technique is already malnourished
johnaiton 2 years ago
I agree that economy picking is not needed for raw speed, but it can facilitate smoothness of picking.
So economy is useful in strict sequences like arppeggios, but you sure as hell cannot improvise with it.
The only way to increase speed in real terms is to conquer legato, since it removes the need to pick entire groups of notes and also creates a very smooth texture in lead lines.
But again it depends on the sound you want, i prefer the raw bite of picking for the most part.

@digitised You can have real economy in improvisation, all you have to do is learn note compensation so that you can economy pick lines with even notes of numbers as well as odd.
Shawn Lane did it with a single pulldown, Marshall Harrison uses hybrid picking compensation, 'rescuing the pick'
atreides444 2 years ago 2
what exactly do you mean by rescuing the pick? and also the single pulldown lol
bcrich6 1 year ago
@bcrich
If you play an upstroke and have to play a note on the string down from it next, you can use your finger to pick the first note on the next string.
The pick upstrokes and your finger pulls up, the motion of the pick upstroking actually makes a lot of the finger movement, it's incredibly economical.
This buys your pick time and decreases difficulty, it also changes the number of notes on the next string so you can correctly keep economy picking.
The pulldown is an economy pull-off.

of course it's possible to improvise using economy picking.
gitarmats 1 year ago
@gitarmats not really unless you have prepared licks of the same style that you would be "improvising", actually playing completely new stuff with economy picking is pretty impossible

@digitised That's total BS. I am a strict economy picker and I don't find it any harder to improvise. I just learned to pick by economy, it comes naturally to me.
