It is really nice to see that Tim also makes these kinds of videos in order to help the guitar community
You mean the commercials to help him sell his ibanez guitars, his fishman pickups. And his software plug ins. I’m not bashing him its brilliant, but don’t forget why hes doing it
He's hot doe
@@OttophilWhy are you mad he is making money lol
@@Ottophil Yeah true but still there is plenty of more shitty ways to advertise.
@@120rikeshlawoju2 How is pointing something out meaning he is mad about it?
You're a throwback to the 80s when the best guitarists in the world were still very much a "part" of the culture. Love it.
That’s growing. Programmed shit is getting old and stale. People playing music is the present, past, and future.
@@roblosh8417 and here he is mixing both by writing the songs digitally and then figuring out how to play it on guitar after. Very cool and he seems like he's so good at teaching as well so he must really understand this at a deep level
@@NowhereMan789 Right? I love that. Using technology to aid the musician, not replace them. Thanks for pointing that out! His writing process is beautiful
MTV didn’t think so. MTV wanted to ban all heavy rock band videos from mtv, 1983? The late . Trend fucks finally excepted. The All star butt rock bands, and Enter sandman top 40 Metallica.
I respect him even tho he looks like a fukboi
I love how there is this modern guitar virtuoso group who all talk to each other and share techniques. Tim casually thanking Tosin Abasi is just a perfect example.
Victor Wooten use the same technique to slap his bass. He was taught by his elder brother who also taught Evan Brewer. Tosin learnt this technique from Evan andddd Tosin then taught Tim this technique.
There's the chain just for fun haha
@@sangpenikam7 And then Tim taught it to me about a year ago when he released Quintuplet Meditation
Tosin is amazing, I discovered tim & tosin via herman li wen they were doing a live stream just shredding, for context im an 80s shredder who worshipped steve vai & satriani, imagine my delight wen vai collaborated with polyphia, its all connected lol.
@@sangpenikam7 victor also used what tosin would coin as selective picking, before tosin even used it
For anyone who missed the beautiful dissonant chord at 6:56, it’s:
A6 (thump twice), D5, G0, B7
It’s such a fantastic chord for the tension and depth of this etude’s harmony
oh, thanx a lot, didn't notice.
G0 is Gmin7b5 or full diminshed? Ty
@@kenanjouglet1424 G0 refers to the open G note as I've notated this chord one note at a time with guitar tab - the chord itself is actually an G augmented 7 with the 1, #5 and 7th degree only.
It's my favourite chord in the etude - and you are most welcome
@@mknepalnamaste Most welcome, Martin
@@apollozillion7820 Oh you were using Tim's way to say chords with the string/fret sorry for that tank you!
Tim out here giving us the secrets to becoming anime characters too, what a vibe
This is all I need to hit the next level. Anime powers
Don't support that gay trans crap.
Ive just been practicing thumping recently and this couldnt have come out at a better time, thanks Tim.
Same here. Thanks Tim.
same here, this is perfect
Same here. Thanks Tim.
Same here. Flooding myu lap with diarrhea rn
exact same here! thanks sm tim!
I love the accuracy of these tutorials. I'm Brazilian and it's quite difficult to connect knowledge about the harmonic scale and knowledge about English, but Tim explains it so well that it's much easier to understand what he means
I genuinely think this vid right here is one of the best tutorials I’ve ever seen for any guitar technique. The way he’s broken it down is unreal. Short, concise, “dumbed down”, spoken tabbed notes. This song not only teaches fast finger movements, keeping time to a metronome at full speed is one of the better timing exercises you could probably ever do. Mindless mastering.
Tim is a treasure. And we get a lifetime of him.
Amazing, Tim!!!
ele até usou "p i m a" q significa "polegar indicador médio anelar" (no brasil mesmo)
people who are actually looking at this as a tutorial should feel very proud of themselves.
Def. It's harder than sweep picking
I don't even play guitar and just watching this incredibly detailed and specific tutorial makes me think I could give it a shot. Talk about an inspiring teacher.
same. i dont even own a guitar. i play piano tho, and this made me want to practice. the inspiration/motivation tim gives off is palpable
ive been playing guitar for 2 weeks and can do this (slowly) after just a few minutes, if it looks even remotely fun i encourage to to pick up a cheap guitar and practice stuff like this. The thing that has helped me the most in my short window of learning is trying things i enjoy instead of feeling stuck in the basics, getting bored, and thinking stuff like this is out of my reach. Just have fun with it.
im playing guitare for about 10 years and this video makes me put my guitar in the bin and play it more in the same time
Go for it Kermit! ✌🏼
That’s the coolest part about Tim’s style of playing. It inspires you to pick up your guitar, and then you actually try playing his stuff… and you end up putting the guitar right back down and contemplating quitting lol
The chord that he forgot to mention at 6:56 is: 6 on the A string, 5 on the D string, open G string and 7 on the B string , keep practicing guys, you got it!
tried that and it sound weird
i think he plays the G string open
@@FrankJordanBeatboxYou are right, thanks for letting me know!
i like how tim henson never used to look into the camera in previous videos, but now he does it all the time
The line of musicians that teach this technique is always so cool to me. Tim taught by Tosin who I believe was taught by Victorr wooten who was taught by his brother Reggie who learned from many musicians growing up.
6:55 the chord that is skipped is:
A string: 6th fret
D string: 5th fret
G string: Open
B string: 7th fret
Anyone else noticed that Tim is looking directly at the camera the whole video? Makes such a huge difference, so great to see him getting better and better at talking to the camera each time a new video comes out
Can't describe how much I love this version of Tim teaching awesome stuff!
You’re a champ. Such a genuine soul. Not trying to hide their craft from others and encouraging evolution of the craft in general
a true musician will promote their instument, their love of music, and also offer knowledge. They don't hoard and hide it.
And of course nobody will do it like him.😊
i play electric guitar for 4 months and this tutorial made me learn thumping in a day. thanks Tim
Great that Tim is sharing this to the rest of the guitar community.
Also so kind to shout out Tosin Abasi where Tim learnt the technique from 🙌
The technique comes from a long line of musicians! Very cool technique used by many musicians over the years.
Tosin got it from Victor Wooten, the bass player. Pretty sure Victor is the original innovator of the technique dating back to the 80s
@@theshapeexists no Victor learned it from his brother Reggie who learned it growing up. Victor popularized the double thumb with his crazy bass playing. You should see his brother on guitar tho, insane.
Literally uploaded this RIGHT when I was putting together a playlist of tunes for fingerpicking practice. Perfect timing!
Edit: speaking from personal experience, the ego death intro is another neat thumping exercise. It sells that "thumb as a pick" concept exceptionally well, imo. Give that one a try if you feel like quintuplet meditation is too hard for you
Honestly this is an awesome lesson. The way he picks apart the technique so even beginners can pick it up is a really nice touch. Nice job coach Tim!
Being an old 80’s rocker, I’m glad the future of guitar is in good hands. It’s great to see innovation in guitars, gear and techniques like this. Rock on 😎🤘🏻🎶
Tim is such a great teacher, he really knows the struggles of the average guitar player and doesn't mind to slow down and thoroughly explain everything he's doing and thinking,.
Thank you so much TIm!
I saw this riff on the instagram and could not help but instantly check it out and learn it. Holy shit I love Tim’s technical stuff but simpler stuff like this with a focus on melodic and harmonic content is so damn good and it still has the signature polyphoa sound.
Tim you are a natural teacher. This was the clearest and easiest to understand tutorial on thumping I’ve seen.
I wrote this already under his WIRED Q&A video, but we can learn so much from everything Tim says. When the specific purpose of the video is to teach, it becomes this information overload. Really nice to have someone as good as Tim explain some things on the guitar.
All the positive comments posted here on the teaching, him beeing genuine etc. i agree….but i want to add though that he has a great taste in fashion as well. Always well dressed and his studio is modern and tasteful. Love how he explains in his other video of his studio tour how doors, wall panels, lighting etc. has been carefully crafted. He looks at details and appreciates crafts by others, designers, engineers etc. He is a very versatile, intelligent and talented person. Thank you for this lesson. Greetings from Germany
You're such a great teacher Tim!
I really appreciate Tim making these and I hope he makes more 🙌🏼
I love how nobody speaks noob language better than a master of the craft. I actually understood everything, and I can't even do that on videos others make of more basic stuff. Actually feel motivation to practice this. I can't play with a pick, I always use my thumb and fingers, and my nails if I want to play louder, so this is so speaking my language. Thank you ❤
You are extraordinary and a gift! Love all you have done and accomplished can’t wait to see more.
This is everything you want in a teacher, especially one online where you can't get realtime feedback. Take nothing for granted and explain all the small details that someone could get tripped up on, even down to showing a close up of the red part of his thumb to show exactly where you should be striking the string. Really well done! 🙌
really respect that he does these tutorials on his songs and techniques, polyphia's huge and he still takes the time to do breakdowns for beginners and intermediates. stuff like this is a huge help for the guitar community and learning the instrument in general!
I don't even own a guitar, but this is awesome. Not only are you and the band so talented, but you still give back to the community. So cool.
a month practicing this technique non-stop! I've been playing for 14 years, it's the first time I really feel a great achievement on the guitar, thank you teacher!
Didn't expect him to also to really understand how to teach well too but he does. I couldn't get it when other youtubers (bless them for trying) tried to teach it but got it right away here. Thank you
Thanks Tim! I've been practicing this for a week and it's starting to sound good. You're a hell of an inspiration. Keep doing you, homie.
thank you so much for everything you do, huge support from France 🇫🇷 ❤
Love the honesty about difficulty and feeling natural with it. Makes me want to gone thumping more of a chance
tim, i owe you a great deal of GRATITUDE. i have always loved rock music, but i gave up on guitars over a decade ago because i couldn't barre chords. i've always "played" the drums, but i began to work on my consistency for about a year now and taught myself how to practice effectively. when i saw your wired video where you mentioned combining power chords and drop D tuning to achieve easy chord shapes, i tried it out (with the help of tuning apps) and began shredding metal riffs like crazy. that got me excited enough to buy a guitar amp and start teaching myself more guitar techniques. i finally trained my stubborn pinky to barre chords (although, i am not magically fluent yet) and am farther along than i ever thought i could be in less than four weeks (after years of lost time). thank you so much for making guitar playing accessible us regular dudes. i honestly never thought i'd get over that hurdle, but your encouragement and knowledge helped me
This guy teaching this technique for free, makes me love Tim even more.
Bro, you are not only the greatest guitarist of our time, you legitimately have such a passion for your craft and want to just share it with everyone.
I see a lot of what I do in my career through your work here, I just want to share my passion and help people learn as well.
Finding your music has sparked such an interest in playing the guitar because you have introduced a whole new style of music to me that I connect with so much.
I hope you get to read this and know what you're doing is far bigger than you could ever imagine. Keep being your amazing humble self and shredding the guitar.
Much love, wish we could share a drink one day.
Awesome tutorial Tim, really appreciate how approachable you made the explanations! You've got a real knack for teaching
Such a straight forward and helpful video on a very technical and difficult technique. Such a gracious gesture to spend time doing this type of video for the guitar community - many thanks Tim, from a grateful guitar player!
the tutorial we've all been waiting for !!
today i was thinking of learning thumping and you uploaded this video now
perfect timing
Dude. You have got to be the most interactive guitarist I've ever seen. Thank you. Can't wait to practice this.
Thank you for your work, Tim and team for these videos.
He just has a way of explaining shit that the layman can really understand. Wish he had a whole course.
As a on and off guitar teacher, my go to advice is always to just play things painfully slow.
Love the start of this lesson, and how you tell us how it's not natural and muscle memory is the way.
Only thing I wish this vid had was a tab diagram when you're showing every note! So much easier to wrap my head around as a newbie than fret number + string letter. 😅 Regardless, thank you for this awesome piece Tim! I'm picking up thumping so much earlier than I thought I'd be able to
Every once in a while, a genius comes along. You're an amazing young man. Your music, your aesthetic, and fully realized authenticity. Bravo!
@1:09 - a shoutout to Tosin Abasi
Huge Respect to Tim Henson 🤘
The kids that are growing up with players like you and Tosin as guitar heros, are going to be beasts.
Just watched you guys in Norfolk this evening. You guys had a killer set. Enjoyed it very much! May you all have continued succees!!!!
This is not a slight on guitar hero’s from back in the day, but they NEVER gave lessons like this away for free. Most of those guys would give you a little here and there through magazines but never a game changing anything, but things have drastically changed with the internet, and the younger generation of professional guitarists is nothing short of phenomenal and they just let you literally feast off them for instruction, salute to you Tim and thank you for making me want to learn and quit at the same time!
Tim, I don't play (wish I did) I just wanted to say you're playing is truly beautiful and a work of art. Thank you for existing.
give it a try
@徐兆岡 I did like 18 years ago 😆. I gave up. It was a black and white Squier strat by Fender, and I had a small Crate amp
As someone who usually doesn’t use a pick, this technique is a great way to practice “picking” both up and down as a more finger style guitarist
Also, I found it really cool that you actually used the P I M A notation for the fingers! Not many people seem to know that!!
Outside of the US, many people know that notation, as it corresponds to Pulgar, Índice, Medio and Anular in the spanish-speaking countries.
Just a random fact that _might_ be useful for someone 😅
@@twincreex ooh! That’s actually really informative :) as a non-US citizen myself, I saw it in some lessons when I was formally educated. I assumed it was just that those that never got formally educated didn’t use it. And I had no idea it was a US vs World thing
I was just thinking about working on this piece last night and you somehow read my mind once more...Thank you so much :) !
Tim, you are a really clear and concise (and wonderful) teacher! Thank you very much!
I feel like I am not at this level of guitar play yet.
But wow, it is such an interesting and refreshing style to see!
Thanks Tim. It’s super great to learn from you.
This is gold! Your an amazing guitarist... as you may already know. Thanks for giving back to the community! ❤
It’s really cool to see you post tuts like this. Love your music.
Also, for anyone who wants to expand on this should look at rosgueado which is a technique used primarily in flamenco. There are many different types of flourishes that can be used and will add some showmanship to your performances.
Yes shit, thank you so much
god bless the dinosaur that dies to make the fossil fuel that was treated to become gasoline in the car that took ur momma to hospital to give birth to you 🥺🥺😍
I absolutely love your videos. You inspired me to play guitar, I wish to be like you. I thought I could never play guitar but you really removed that doubt in my mind. One of the best guitarists from India! 🙏
Somebody help me
👺🙏
Been playing acoustic guitar for years, but your tone has me seriously considering getting an electric setup. Love the otherworldly punch and reverb
Nice playing, friend
Rock on and can’t wait to see you guys live in a couple days!!!
Hi Tim, Amazing stuff, Thank you for your open lessons on your playing style, I admire how open you are on sharing your developments, doing so opens up a total new way of playing music on guitar, leading to a whole new genre in music free to everybody to experiments. Most talent artists would rather keep secret their techinics to remain the only one to be able to play it. All it takes is a lesson and hard practise. I start again to play music on my guitar only after watching you and Polyphia. Your music re ignite in me the will to replay the instrument after years. Keep up the good work. THANKS
one thing that i did when learning this a few months back that helped the technique click for me was just leaving my hand in the same position and moving the guitar into different angles until the strings fit the motion i was doing with my hand. once i got used to how that motion was supposed to feel, i put the guitar in a regular playing position and it just worked. i had the guitar almost completely parallel with my upper body, but it helped with understanding whole thing. might not work for everyone but good luck
I love that the progressive players basically went full circle back to classical creating Etudes
Really cool.
He’s a very good teacher.
Seriously. He seems very patient whilst knowledgeable.
This is great. I've been trying to learn thumping for a while but it hasn't clicked yet. This seems like a nice piece to learn with. Thanks Tim!
“PeePee i’m” -Tim Henson
I've wanted to learn how to play this for so long ! I'm so excited 🥰
Is there anything this insane Genius can’t do on a guitar?🤷♂️ Tim is a gift that keeps on giving ❤🎸
Brother Tim showing us some more classic, but important moves for growth. Danke, Tim!
Tyvm Tim. I've been practicing thumping recently so I've been playing Meditation and God hand non-stop. This is perfect timing to help me nail the technique
This was really great. Thank you Tim
You make it so sound simple and inviting Tim you were definitely meant to be a teacher ❤
I never seen an explanation s o simple from a really hard technique.. Bravo Tim
Thank you so much for this, this is amazing. I haven't played guitar in a while and never got too technical with it, but since I listened to Polyphia, I really took the time to play again and regain my lost skill. Videos like these are really useful, thank you Tim and Polyphia for this.
Really glad you shouted out Tosin for showing you the technique. Props!
This is "just" a practice loop and yet it sounds absolutely beautiful
Acquestically the presentation was very educational. I feel the internal spirit is flowing through and smiles as all of us hear the amazing performance.
Thanks for sharing! And with excellent instructions too. Have a good one Tim.
This is awesome I love it when Tim does lesson videos like these.
Man you're a great teacher, you explain things so fully I really appreciate that
This really helped out a lot seen some of Tosin Abasi’s work and had no idea how it worked. Thank you
Excellent. Super helpful young master :) Tim, you are one of the reasons I decided I could get better. You are a big inspiration homie. Keep it up.
bro i’ve been asking for this forever, thankyou tim.
LEGEND TIM HENSON!!🤤Man you create unique things! You got a fan from Portugal my friend!!
Just saw you guys in Nashville. Great show. Everyone should see you guys.
A technique I learned through bass playing, where it is probably more common. Didn't even know that you could thump like this on a guitar. Love that you post so openly about your skills and techniques, thanks a lot!
You're an great teacher Tim!! Very well explained
Tim, thank you for these videos. They're super helpful.
It's so generous that this vituoso musician shares his experience and knowledge to all. A natural teacher - communicates clearly and doesn't pretend you can be great in 10 lessons like many other sites. This excellence takes sustained practise.
Tim is an amazing player and a great teacher as well. I'm intrigued about trying this stuff out after seeing the lesson.
This is great, recently picked up the guitar again and been working on finger picking! This will be def added to my practicing! thank you
This was a really good lesson! Concise, yet thorough. Thanks for the help!
ill gladly pay for this videos, this is amazing i love what your doing for the community and the genre in general. Love u tim be safe
This is a GREAT practical tip. Love it. Thanks my man!🙏🏾
