  • I AM SO SICK OF THE 'BLUES'. It's youtube blues. Everyone plays that because it's easier. What is next? "Youtube Prog" licks flooding the channels? Oh wait, how about Folk licks? Oh yea thats right. The Avett Brothers have already had their 5 mins of frame.

  • Lmao go to 216, then kill yourself. Good advice.

  • Sweet I reached 200! oh wait i just woke up.

  • I really think this is stupid. Is he trying to teach gods to play guitar,or humans? I think that Paul Gilbert knows this,but normal people do not,we need something to get us to this level,something normal. I know you will reply me with something like "you have a metronome and a whole day to practice",but I hope you know what I want to say. By the way,the blues lick is the best lick on the DVD.

  • @MrCowwhisperer27 It is practice, John Petrucci is like everybody else. He is where he is because of his dedication to his practice, we all have the potential to be like him.

  • @Rockyroopam Must say you are right

  • @MrCowwhisperer27 you seriously watched 5 of these videos before saying that? you obviously wanted to be able to play like him or you wouldn't have been here in the first place. how would other guitar gods become guitar gods if there wasn't a video like this to teach them the stuff they are not too lazy to learn

  • This is redicilous. It doesn't even sound good when playing that fast.

  • @Bokajmunar it's exercise...

  • @Bokajmunar It's an atonal chromatic exercise to build speed....

  • thats crazy. i can only get 108 beats now

  • This isn't John Petrucci.. He was summoned back to the Mothership, so they had to replace him by an I.A. who looked like Jesus.. They figured no one would ever notice, because everyone just looks at the hands and DIE right there after been confronted with that amount of awesomeness..

  • aahh i can do it easy with my left hand but my left arm hurts!!! more right hand exercises!

  • I am playing 8 bits per note LOL xD

  • i get it john... you're good and i suck ... jeezz

  • didn't know Jesus played guitar

  • I seriously recommend these lessons to people who don't have a guitar teacher or are not getting lesson this shit works! I just reached my 200 bpm goal like two days ago! Once you get to 170 it's pretty much easy from that point on it took me like a week to get to 160 then in one day i went from 160 to 200 so it works just stay dedicated!

  • @Machinehead18 how long did u exercise per day? i appreciate ur reply thnx

  • @poralentierno 72 hours a day

  • man i have been doing this for about a week and i can only get up to 180bpm clean even 185 suddenly kills me!

  • Comment removed

  • Damn he told us to kill ourselves.

  • Ummm I think 120bpm kills me atm Shit!! I'm sure this is in fast forward at bits!

  • @JPCODE please dont insult his playing that way............john petrucci is really this good

  • Ummm I think 120bpm kills me atm Shit!!

  • The first part of the sextuplets exercise,is the Metropolis Part 1 sextuplet section but in the song they start from B and the scale is B minor.

    The second part is different though.....

  • I feel like the whole time he's struggling not to smirk (yeah, let's hear what it sounds like at THAT tempo...)

  • I dont know if i have to love him for being the best, or hate him for making me feel bad haha

  • Am i the only one that comes to a point where it feels like u just cant play faster and stay accurate.. imean ican play faster but then its just raping my guitar not knowing what im playing lol. Its like some kind of limit where ur brain cant keep up which note u have to hit.. or am i just stupid

  • @RevellAndRepend "but then its just raping my guitar" LOL, LOL, LOL, LOL, LOL!!!!!

    You're not necessarily stupid, just your brain doesn't have the experience of functioning at that speed. As he said, back off a bit, practice A LOT at that tempo, and just shunt it forward in SMALL incriments, practicing A LOT, until you begin to slowly improve your reaction time/thinking speed.

  • @RevellAndRepend No, your not stupid. But never ever play before you think... Your brain shouldnt have to keep up with you fingers, but it should be the other way around. Your fingers should have to keep up with your brain :]

  • just kill yourself, awesome idea if you play as fast as this guy

  • Yeah, so I'm, pretty much amazing

    but, you can't really play that fast. so, you suck, so start at around 10. then when you get to 15, you can't do that, so just put your guitar on ebay

  • His command of theory is astonishing!

  • 16 note triplets are called SEXTUPLETS im not even joking !!!!!

  • SSIIIIIICKKK

  • I'm sure he feels like Einstein trying to explain advanced physics to 4th graders!

  • the scary part is how much hes gotten in the past 15 years...and how much hes going to get before he ascends or he ends the world with his picking speed...

  • Ground control...we've reached Mach VVVVVVVVVVXXXXXXXXIIIIIIIIIIII­IIII

  • It still blows my mind, that he made this video 15 yrs ago... watz the next heirarchy to God??? lol

  • he should have a dr look at his right hand, he's got a touch of blurrrr

  • @sbucksoffice I can't even see my own hand very well when i tremelo pick. And he hauls way, way more ass than i do.

  • go 216 and just kill ur self what the fuck

  • ahhahah petrucci is a good teacher ^^ a terror teacher

  • FUCK MY LIFE.

  • damn he's fast...

  • 1:56 "Okay, it was nothing but a warm-up for me"

  • you know he can do 216 but flubbed it on purpose

  • @nichols9286 Lol I thought the same when I saw him going like that

  • @nichols9286 Yeah, you can totally tell.

  • @nichols9286 Yeah...I've seen him play much faster in his music lol.

  • @nichols9286 Sure he can. He can do even more nowadays. But I think this was honestly too difficult (on that particular day, at that particular instant). I think he fired this blues lick in the end because he realised he was losing control at 208 too. But he's insanely good anyway. John YOU RAWK!!!

  • @nichols9286 He was trying to seem more human XD

    When really he maka no mistakes ^^

  • @nichols9286 'flub' is such a JP word :')

  • @nichols9286 ofc. Jesus does as he pleases

  • @nichols9286 He's probably struggling with 316. ;)

  • i see im not the only one who feels good at 60 bpm :)

  • go back to 200 n see how it feels.....fuck u petrucci... ur insane :|

  • 170, try to get comfortable there first.

    Yeah... I think I'll go back to 44.

  • @Amnesiam haha my online metronome dosnt got to 44. it starts at 50 lol.

  • Ha, me too.

    See you there, buddy.

  • wenaa wn!
