I've been playing for years and out of everything I tried I could never get galloping. I found this vid played along while listening and it all just came finally together. Thank you so much man.
I've been teaching myself guitar for 2 years now and this is the first time galloping has clicked for me where I can feel it. I still have a ways to go but I really appreciate you helping me have a breakthrough.
So, I get the concept of galloping, what I need help with is keeping my elbow from locking. I always wind up using my elbow more than my wrist and it's really hindering my ability to progress this technique.
Do you know the best thing about your channel? Honestly, even after playing for 32yrs. Nothing but punk/thrash/death/black metal. As well as grindcore and old school crossover thrash. I find myself learning a lot of valuable information from your beginner lessons. Sometimes to advance. You have to go back to the beginning. Also, thanks to you. I decided to say screw it. I uploaded a couple songs. As well as just some parts of ones I’m working on and one of me messing around. All because you once told me in a reply to a different video of yours I commented on. To just do it. Thanks for these lessons man.
Dude, it’s encouraging to hear that and thank you. Yeah, you never want to stray away from the basics because everything, and every sub genre of rock and metal are built of those fundamentals in some way.
@Kosaczi thank you. All of my guitar courses come with tabs and backing tracks. This is my course for learning the fundamentals of metal guitar: www.jasonstallworth.com/courses/
You're a good f****** teacher bro I've been trying to figure this out for 6 months and I just learned everything I should have known and like a couple minutes f****** awesome I'm on my way to metal
Oh so that's what it's called. It's really a beautiful technic, It's the first thing I think of when I say "Rock guitar". Thank you for this lesson, you know your stuff.
ahh the 3 finger Hetfield pick holding. :-) I tried it for like 2 weeks straight and man... I had to go back. I see why people do it as you have so much control but 20 years of 2 fingers was hard to break.
I really think you have to play what feels the most comfortable and natural. I never really thought about how I held my pick until folks started asking! lol
I had never noticed that my down picking pick angle does move towards the bridge. Great for down picking, but that never worked well for galloping in my case. Then I saw your video, and you described the situation perfectly - change the direction. Such an important tidbit of info that I had never heard before. Thank you so much.
Very helpful thanks. I found it most effective to practise the basic pattern multiple times a day but for rather short sessions. This way it sinks in quite quickly.
Loved this man! Tried holding the pick like you do, reminds me of James Hetfield. Normally have a more traditional hold. This is so much more comfortable. I can now proudly say that I've learned to Gallop. Cheers man 👍🏻
Very helpful. Been playing about 2 yrs...and this galloping video makes sense. Lol.. When I started playing drums 34 years ago...wish we had helpful shit like this back then..
Thanks for this. I am just starting to learn metal although I have been playing for about a year. I had seen lessons on down stokes and galloping separately but had not seen how they can be mixed.
Awesome and glad you're playing! I just put out a new video on tremolo picking for some of the extreme styles: ruclips.net/video/I3PSd3uhSrA/видео.html
OMG... thank you so much fo sharing this video with me in the last comment, your pick holding method just completely fixed my alternate picking, not kidding... that one tip has me unstuck!!! Thank you so much man!!!
Witam, niby gram z 25 lat hobbystycznie sam dla siebie w zaciszu domowym bez nut tylko ze słuchu samoukiem jestem bo takie czasy byly, lecz teraz mam wreszcie nauczyciela od metalu pozdrawiam z Polski 👍🏻🇵🇱👌
Hi Tony Bradley here first you sound bad ass, I'm not criticising but on your galloping there is a twang after each hit so i think it might need more pawm muffle not harder just moved a little forward. I'm sorry if it is offensive, you do sound bad ass, and so far I love your videos the best, I've been playing since I was 21 and i'm 56 now so I have a little experience, I'm not as good as you that's for sure so keep on rocking for us all thanks.
Like so many feel, I just want to say thank you Sir ! For taking the time to create these videos. You put a lot of time and work into them and it's greatly appreciated! You have helped me grow and become a better guitar player.
Excellent lesson Jason! I have to work and practice my gallop skills and other technique. Working on mastering sweep picking and arpeggios right now and Dream Theater songs on 7 string kick my butt.
I may try to make my horse Whinny riff gallop. I played the intro to Turbo lover without a synthesizer. I didn't play the riffs but the turbo synth sound on my guitar. Doing that really took some settings and fuzz and flanger pedals and vibratto and a delay chorus. With a Barre on E&A strings. It's some really complicated settings and the Flanger revolution you have to adjust that. I will try to play Galloping Horse Whinny except I will have to alternate hammer on at the bridge. This is an awesome exercise today. Playing that into synth on guitar to Judas Priest -Turbo Lover was awesome I had no synth pedals either. I did it from scratch. I played Radial Engine Edition last week An old timey World War 2 Airplane engine in cruise. It's all a great stress reliever watching these excercises and playing these crazy things on my own guitar as well.
@@jasonstallworth I battle a lot of very bad frustration in life and playing heavy and ear ringing loud even if its not the hardest complicated style it's a stress reliever.
@@chadcrawford1502 sorry to hear that man. It’s definitely a stress reliever. And the riffs don’t have to be complicated. Some of the best songs are ones with simple riffs.
Learn some Metallica riffs like the main one from Disposable Heroes and the interlude riff in Four Horsemen and you'll be set for gallops! Then you can learn Meshuggah Bleed 😅but that one is beastly!
Man, I remember hearing those Metallica songs for the first time! There was nothing like it or even close! There was such an energy (for me, this was the late 80s). But yes, those are amazing riffs!
Great lesson Jason! Yur the guy!! Two quick questions...what do you think of James using almost exclusively down strokes. I hear it, hear it, read it, etc but it seems impossible. Well...I guess two more quick questions...what pair of humbuckers to fit a 2019 LP Studio would be really hot for mainly metal (the one I came across came with horrible 52s)? Seymours? ESPs? Lastly what song do you remember besides Sabbath that really made the gallop popular? This might be a crazy answer but I think Barricuda had a cool gallop rhythm, just not as fast or metal. 🤘🏽💀🤘🏽(BTW I LOVE yur albums. Masterpeace, so good. They all are. I was jamming Anthem of Brutality earlier lol)...NOTHING gets me grabbing the axe faster than Facing the Guillotine
Thank you for the support on my albums, brother! I really appreciate that! I believe Hetfield also played a lot of alternate picking (songs like Trapped Under Ice, part of Disposable Heroes, and several others). And I really don't know what made galloping popular. For me, it was Metallica because they were what got me into metal.
This sounds awesome Jason I still need to buy a guitar amp and some pedals I'm kind of starting my life over again so I have to buy some stuff again 🆒👍🤘 I'll try this out
Hey dude, had to stop by and say this video is fantastic. Lifelong metal head but brand new guitar player and I can’t wait to be able to play some metal riffs! Sub from me
I've always been curious how this machine gun galloping is done, when I see or hear metal bands do it, Q. Are you using a certain thickness of pick that you prefer or maybe recommend to get this deep galloping chugging sound. Great quality videos by the way, I've watched this video multiple times to try and get this concept down.👍🤘

There are to kinds of gallop in a way. D-U-D-pause and D-pause-D-U You always move your pick up during the pause. You are always accenting the first note (strum a bit harder) and it gives you a bit different sound/feeling. The second example is more like Heart - Baracuda
Also I heard some guitarists (I think the guitarist in Witchery or The Haunted?) plays gallops by starting with an upstroke. I tried doing it but I really just could not get it right!
I hold the plectrum in a more traditional way with the plectrum inbetween the thumb and index finger. I think your method is the way James Hetfield holds a plectrum.
It's awesome that you're getting into this. I have a metal tone guide on what I typically use here: www.jasonstallworth.com/metal-tones-virtual-and-real-amp-settings/
I was dying from cancer and God saved me from dying...my atheist doctors were like wow. They started believing in God. But when I recovered I asked God what type of gift I could give him as a return thank you...he said I want you to play neo classical and metal... I played before cancer but was more of a singer. But he told me to master galloping oh man it's harder than I thought! I play acoustic soely. This is rad! Thx man! You are a God send! Subbed!
You've been through some trials, for sure. But I'm glad you have been healed and moving forward with both guitar and your life! That's inspiring an it shows that nothing can hold you back. Also, thank you for the sub. Oh, and I have an acoustic playlist on my channel here...and more acoustic videos coming!
Heh, heh, I can't even answer a yes or no question while playing. If my fingers are making notes the part of my brain that controls my mouth stops working. I can walk and chew gum, rub my head and pat my tummy, but play guitar and say words, nope. 😂
Nope. This is the one thing beginners don't need 😂 I was first learning chords and was able to play Cranberries' Zombie all the way through. Was learning Christopher Cross's Sailing and I did a palm mute by accident and everything went downhill from there. Now, I play black metal 20 something years later and barely know any chords except minor ones. 😂😂
@@jasonstallworth lol. All I remember dude is somehow I did a palm mute and was thinking: "That sounded like..what my favorite metal bands do." It opened up an addictive gateway because I was spending all hours of my time off in the Air Force trying to play Fear Factory and Megadeth using tabs. Lol
@@jasonstallworth Speaking of Sailing. Sorry for the double post but my 3 favorite songs are: 1 Sailing. 2 Arthur's Theme, and 3 Whose Going to Drive You Home Tonight (Can't listen to this one because it reminds me of when I was little in the 80s. Too much for even a hardened metal guy). Those 3 songs to me are better than any metal I have heard in my 40 years on Earth.

Great quality videos by the way, I've watched this video multiple times to try and get this concept down.👍🤘
Thank you. I actually prefer thinner picks but it's really a preference. I use to use .60 for everything but these days I'm using .73 to .88
@@jasonstallworth I'm using Jim Dunlop .73 + .88 max grip and green tortex
Galloping with different strings is tough. Like Shedding Skin for example.
🤘

Shakey from south carolina
Welcome to the channel, and dude it's never too late! You're here and doing it!
Have you done a chugging tutorial? Thanks for making this galloping one….I suck currently but plan on being ok at guitar in a few years. Ha
Always gotta be hopeful and think positive! Haha
I don’t think I have any ‘chugging’ videos but I do have a lot out there that cover the core picking techniques, which is essentially the same. Keep pushing yourself!
Sweet like cake baby,
Thanks Jason..
🤘
which is the right strumming pattern to galloping ? it seems you do D-U-D but I saw another tutorial where he does D-D-U, Does it change anything ? thx, you rock bro !!!!
Thank you for watching. I do D-U-D for gallops...it's a quick alternate picking technique
There are to kinds of gallop in a way.
D-U-D-pause and D-pause-D-U
You always move your pick up during the pause.
You are always accenting the first note (strum a bit harder) and it gives you a bit different sound/feeling.
The second example is more like Heart - Baracuda
here is living proof that metalheads are really nice people
🤘
Also I heard some guitarists (I think the guitarist in Witchery or The Haunted?) plays gallops by starting with an upstroke. I tried doing it but I really just could not get it right!
Yeah dude, some guitarists do that. I’ve never tried it but I guess maybe you get a little different feel doing it that way.
Question for the viewers…what’s ya’lls pick of choice particularly for galloping style playing? More pointy or more rounded?
I use those dorito shaped picks and I love them pointy they really slip past those strings
Awsom!🤘🍺
🙏🤘
are you muting the A string for the one 'E' string gallop ? or are you fretting it ?
I’m not certain but try both ways and see what sounds best to you. I always encourage that
My gallops got way better after learning suffocating sight by trivium
Both bands have some great riffs!
Hmm, Patreon seems to be down or something... and yah, I think I like holding my pick that way better too!
Definitely try it out. My method may not work for everyone but it can serve as a starting point and you can make adjustments from there
Awesome 🎼⭐️🎼⭐️🎸🎼⭐️🎼⭐️🎼⭐️🎼⭐️🎼⭐️🎼⭐️
🙏 🤘
I hold the plectrum in a more traditional way with the plectrum inbetween the thumb and index finger. I think your method is the way James Hetfield holds a plectrum.
Dude I never even realized how I held back my until folks would ask! lol
What’s your amp set on? If you don’t mind
I am a beginner and hungry to learn !! At the young age of 55
It's awesome that you're getting into this. I have a metal tone guide on what I typically use here: www.jasonstallworth.com/metal-tones-virtual-and-real-amp-settings/
Can you use this in any key? Since its the low E string do i have to stay in the key of E?
You can use this technique anywhere on the fretboard and in any key. In fact, I encourage you to play around and experiment with that.
@@jasonstallworth so i can be galloping on the low E string and lets say im using chords in the Key of C thats ok?
@@El_Pimpin_Shizz you have to experiment. Find out for yourself as you play. Don’t worry about anyone saying you can or can’t. Just go for it!
What size pick do you use
Currently, and for a while now, Dunlop Maxgrip .88
This might be weird, but I gallop on an up pick motion as the first note
🤘
I like you go off track too about lyrics over rhythm guitar you made before, I guess I have more respect for lead vocalists too
🤘
I was dying from cancer and God saved me from dying...my atheist doctors were like wow. They started believing in God. But when I recovered I asked God what type of gift I could give him as a return thank you...he said I want you to play neo classical and metal... I played before cancer but was more of a singer.

Also, thank you for the sub.
Oh, and I have an acoustic playlist on my channel here...and more acoustic videos coming!
What I do usually is reading the tabs and play it using my ear on the song or rift until i memorise it and then put the tabs away and practice.
That's a good way to practice. But I also encourage trying to figure it out without tabs
@@jasonstallworth yeah some times i manage to do like one note or so ear training is very important especially since i damanged both of them

What distortion do you use?
Just the EVH amp distortion for this video
Thnx bro , I receive shortly the Boss DS1, Hopefullyit will do its job ...💯👍🏽

Sorry for the double post but my 3 favorite songs are: 1 Sailing. 2 Arthur's Theme, and 3 Whose Going to Drive You Home Tonight (Can't listen to this one because it reminds me of when I was little in the 80s. Too much for even a hardened metal guy). Those 3 songs to me are better than any metal I have heard in my 40 years on Earth.
see the problem is that swords handle is too thin, it would break in combat, now i gotto rewind the video and watch the start again....... focus.
