  • maybe your also muting some strings a little with your picking/strumming hand? My G strings rings out some and I accidentally pull off that string when going for the stretch. Do you know what I'm saying. Thanks for helping me add to my playing.

  • @vplman2011 Oh yeah, definitely. You have to mute the unwanted strings with the back of your picking hand palm. Also the strings that are being picked are slightly muted with the picking hand to give them a punchier sound and make them easier to control. When you hear Yngwie do this technique all the notes he is playing are slightly muted to make them pop out more.

  • That pimped up strat is straining at the leash...! I can hear the sustain. Are those DiMarzio Cruisers?

  • @MrFrothinger Hey, at the time I shot this video I had a Dimarzio Fast Track 2, Pro Track and Chopper in my strat. Thanks!! Carl..

  • You must have big hands. I find the 7 to 12 stretch to be difficult.

  • thank you for breaking it down! you rock. now i can play like yngwie

  • I find the turn around point hard from picking up to down, so up untl now I did three upstrokes and 2 down, if you get what I mean. Is this a problem?

  • "Um" storm is coming..

    Hehee,,

    great lesson man..

  • Good Lesson, Thanks!

  • @GuitarLessons365 Awesome! I did go to your website to show love and also liked on fb. Good stuff! thanks again.

  • you got some long ass fingers dude!! good lesson though

  • Great lesson. Too bad Malmsteen is a royal jerk. Not to take away from your lesson, which was superb. But anyone who arrogantly disregards Jimi Hendrix is a conceited fool
