The amazing Teemu Mäntysaari of Wintersun shares an ingenious two-way pickslanting economy pattern for seventh-chord arpeggios. Teemu's full-lenth interview, with a host of his battle-tested insights on sweeping, alternate picking, pickslanting, pick grip, and more, is coming soon to Masters in Mechanics! www.troygrady....
Ridiculously clean.
Oddly enough, when you hear wintersun and know jari, you'd think that jari is a beast, but teemu is so insanly perfect when it comes to sweeping and enconomy picking it's absurd, even jari says he can't compete :) he's such a nice guy
INTERLOPER AMAZING BAND
Perhaps the cleanest sweeps I've ever heard. And those patterns are insane...
Check out Rob Marcello too
U r still a baby that means
Vinnie Moore 'Mind's Eye' nothing cleaner out there since that day.
This is some seriously incredible playing here. Teemu is one of the most amazing guitarists on planet earth. His tone is perfect.
Teemu is such a great player, a nice guy and extraordinarily good teacher. I've had the pleasure to have a few lessons with him last year in Helsinki, and I can definitely say that I was amazed by how much I learned from him.
thats the best sounding arpeggio pattern i ever heard
Teemu is a master at sweeping; Additionally he's a monster on guitar; Sadly nobody takes him serious since he's second guitar in the band Wintersun... Which is funny, he's even better than the actual songwriter and lead-guitarist lol
Well that is about to change since Jari will quit playing guitar live and Teemu will get to play all the solos and other cool guitar stuff!
literally
I've watched this thousands of time and i feel in awe every time
Me too bro 🥺
Some of the finest sweep picking on the planet. LOVE YOU TEEMU!!
holy shit he's good
I think Jari said that Teemu is better player than him, if that's the case then he must a real beast.
He is.
Hellz yeah !!! :)
He's god
I've never seen a player playing arpeggios that clean. Teemu deserves more recognition.
i'm from future. He is in Megadeth now
What an awesome progression!
// Em7 / F#m7b5 / GM7 //
Even without sweeping it, it sounds sooo mint!
Just diatonic vi-vii-I :)
@wpirzada Because it is, E minor (vi), Half Diminished F# (vii) and G major (i)
Gorgeous arpeggios. This sequence sounds like it'd be fun to learn.
Its so amazing to see the contrast between Teemu's and Jari's picking styles. Both amazing players, but completely different the way they go about it. Teemu has the most economical/efficient right hand I've ever seen.
Like malmsteen
Sweeping that actually sounds appealing and not "gimmicky". Nice!
Teemu is an absolute ace at this. All the notes speak clearly regardless of the technique behind them. In fact you really can't tell when he's using alternate picking or sweeping unless he wants you to.
Troy Grady - Yeah, the two way switches he's doing to achieve this, flow impeccably. I'm going to try and take up sweeping and economy picking again after seeing this! Keep it up, Troy, cheers!
Gabriel Mahound - It's nice to keep things fresh by switching techniques up in every song. I really like his hybridization of multiple techniques to achieve this particular sound. I personally think tapping and sweeping are over done, most often. Hard to make them sound extremely intriguing, to my ears, at least. This sounds amazing!
I love how - for want of a better description - "picky" his sweeping sounds. So much sweeping sounds so clean it's almost synth-like, whereas Teemu manages to have both clarity and real bite to each note.
Nick Siepmann he's using the bridge pickup in this video, whereas a lot of players use the neck for sweeps to 'mask' mistakes or to achieve that certain sound. Teemu's sweeps are impeccable so he could use the bridge pickup and there would be no excess string noise!
Not since Becker have I heard such clean and inventive arpeggios! ....taking notes for sure.
Thank you for making this available to the guitar community . Beyond amazing what this guy does
Who is here after hearing about him joining megadeth ?
me
I do
No, I know him as the guitarist for Netta Laurenne, shocked to hear he's in Megadeth now.
@@CHOPERUS23 Check out Wintersun. Teemu is more widely known as the guitarist of Wintersun.
@@CHOPERUS23 Lets hope he will still be on a new Smackbound record
Bro.. are there other humans that can do this? I feel like this guy may be the best guitarist alive.. And it's not like he just "can" play it. He plays it perfectly clean, so that every note rings out, even at that speed. Just insane.
Enthused check out chon, they do plenty of sweeping with these kind of arps at this speed
Takayoshi Ohmura and he also uses a similar right hand technique
I think David Dowling gets close: ruclips.net/video/9--csr8IVnM/видео.html
To my ear, Teemu's technique is even cleaner.
Just because youre incredibly technical doesnt automatically make you a great guitarist. Its impressive and virtuosic, but in my opinion, if youre playing serves the song beautifully, then youre a good guitarist. Sorry for my rant lol
This channel has always been amazing, but the interview with Teemu is what got me to finally jump on-board with Masters in Mechanics. I'm watching the full video as we speak (type) and it's blowing my mind. Having someone as advanced and in depth as Troy talking to such an amazing guitar player (that also seems to be an amazing teacher) is just priceless. I would kill for a teacher like Teemu, especially since I'm both blessed and cursed as a natural upwards pick slanter. For years I've struggled with certain licks, and the concept is pick slanting seems to be the key to my struggle. Thank you Troy, for spear-heading such an amazing and interesting concept for guitarist!!!
Much appreciated - thanks for signing up! We've got some very cool updates coming soon.
Syn 9001 you can take lessons from Temmu. Skype lessons if you don't live in Finland.
Teemu is a superb player and a nice dude as well :)
Phenomenal player and great video segment.
Nice to see Teemu getting more exposure.
He's an insane guitarist! I saw Wintersun live yesterday and his playing was insanely perfect. Very underrated guitarist for sure.
not anymore underrated :D
Fortunately Teemu is finally getting the recognition now that he's playing with Megadeth.
Awesome lick. For some reason, these repeating patterns of 3,4,5 or whatever aren't utilized on every type/inversion of arpeggios in popular patterns and thanks to Teemu...there are many cool possibilities. He just rips them so easily, they sound so fresh. Thanks!!
Wow. I like the slanting reversals he uses. Inhuman synchronization... That's some very difficult fingering!
I feel so close yet so far to be able to play this, sounds so great
Awesome! Love the variety of players you bring in. Really great stuff.
+Joseph Wags Thanks Joe!
Sometimes I'm more impressed by the muting aspect of this right hand techniques. Don't get me wrong, this is freaking amazing, but it creates a lot of other questions in my head. Keep it up Troy!!!
I agree, while it is impressive (the playing) the muting is still stellar.
Never heard of this guy until now. He is much better than some of the so called top players.
Damn Fins! Always amazing players, the lot of them!
Closest I come to sounding like this is shoving a drumstick into a fan.
BEST. FUNNY. COMMENT. EVER!!!! NICELY done! (Especially because that's the closest I come to sounding like this as well)
Bahahahahahahah
Sounds really Bettencourty. Oh, and amazingly awesome by the way.
Teemu and Jari always my fav guitarist..!!!!!
some of the coolest sweeps, odd groupings of notes with mixed ascending and descending, much more interesting than the standard one-note-per-string sweeps across all the strings (which are still impressive in their own right). This just adds more texture and depth to a sweeping pattern making it more melodic then just adapting a harmonic device for melody use with the conventional sweeping techniques.
Time to hit the woodshed
In all honesty, Jari is an incredible, 1-in-a-million guitarist, but I think this guy is even better. He just seems to have the guitar as an extension of him...things like rapid alternate picking and sweeped arpeggios seem like naturality for him...he doesn't *play* the guitar...he *is* the guitar.
That was nicely put.
Hell yeah! Thanks Troy! I'm definitely gonna get that masters in mechanics episode.
listening to him feels like heaven
awesome indeed! I'm not even a fan sweep picking but that sounded pretty nice.
invite rick grahaaaam
MrGuitarFera he's a beast
MrGuitarFera would love to see both of the in the same room
I honestly don't understand why he hasn't already. He is the best player I have ever seen. No one is as relaxed or controlled as him lol
BluJ Guitar his economy picking is so smooth and effortless. and that is not an easy exercise
If you're not doing exxxxtreeeeeeeeemelllly well, Rick will invade your dreams with economy picking
When you're so good that you have to slow down to think about what you're doing and how you're doing it.
Thats hours and hours of practice right there.. can only imagine how much time he's put on just arpeggios
These clips are such teases. Will have to buy that vid when I can afford it. So, I'll be back around for it at some later point.
No tease intended! We try to put as much quality stuff up here as we can. The past week alone we've put up almost an hour of really detailed stuff on pick design that took us months to make.
@@troygrady I hope my comment didn't come across as negative. I wasn't complaining, I promise! And I noticed your new vids, but haven't watched yet. Will check them out asap, but I kinda hesitate cuz I currently own only an air guitar. And it has a tendency to shift in size as I'm playing it. I wish it'd materialize briefly just once so I at least know what color it is. :3
But, thanks much for all these vids that I've watched and have to look forward to!!! :D
That's some damn smooth pickin!
I'm surprised there's no magnet.
Thank you for the beautiful words
Oh man, he is so good!
man i would love to see more of this
So glad you got this dude on! Fucking love Wintersun!!
I think Alfred Potter's sweeps are on the same level. Flaming awesome!
Increible el tono tan limpio ,el cuerpo q tiene cada nota ,lo limpio q toca , Teemu no es un guitarrista ,él es la guitarra
I love it when he stops to actually look at the pick, like wait what am I doing?
Sweep picking that doesn't sound like sweep picking. Very cool.
So the only reason someone would dislike this video is because they are SO frustrated, they can now never play their guitar again because they would never reach this level. (Throws guitar on ground- breaks it- then hits dislike- then throws phone at wall/computer monitor)
What! Troy + Teemu! epic!
Teemu the beast. Hope you meet Jari too.
I have a lot of issues with getting my picking clean and then here's Teemu making sweeps sound cleaner than I can do one string stuff.
He's excellent. For those unfamiliar, Aussie Frank Gambale was owning this in the 80s.
Can't wait for this interview!
Will it be featured fully here, on your RUclips channel, or will it be only available on your website as a purchase?
The only full interview we've done for the channel was the Batio livestream. That was a lot of fun, and it was kind of a thank-you for the RUclips audience. Being live, that made more sense. For the pre-recorded interviews, which are long and take huge amounts of of time to synchronize and edit, subscription makes more sense for both of us. However we post shorter clips and especially analysis videos of almost everything we do, which is really more appropriate for RUclips anyway given their shorter length. So either way, you'll see cool stuff!
very good, this is more like the gamable approach
yessssss!!!!! at last wintersun!!!!!! are you gonna do one with yari?
Teemu is one of a kind
Never heard of this guy,dont even know who he is.Looking forward to hearing more about him.BTW Troy can you get an interview with Paul Gilbert?He was just recently on the andertons vlog,I mean if they can get an interview I see no reason why he (PG) wouldnt grant you one,especially since he was featured on the code.
He's a guitarist in the band Wintersun.
PG never wants to talk about Racer X nowdays....it's all blues.
That second sweep (dominant?) is beautiful.
FANTASTIC GUITAR PLAYER !!
Awesome video as always! I love m7 arpeggios and his approach to using them, it's very similar to the way I pick m7s. Also, just out of curiosity where is The Magnet? I was rather surprised not to see it used in this video.
SUPER clean.
Thank you for loving my career
Would love to see Michael Romeo!
Crazy picking
0:42 what kind of sorcery is he doing at the peak of this arpeggio. If you listen carefully, there are some very rapid notes there. So rapid that it almost sounds like a mistake. But considering It's him, they are not mistakes.
Impressive left hand skill.
Thank you dear
Is there a tab for the pick directions on this style of cascading Sequenced Arpeggios? This style of sound is one I really like and it’s done really well here
man cant wait for the new wintersun album july needs to come sooner
Can you do this with ALL seventh chords? This is amazing playing, unbelievable.
YES
ruclips.net/video/vcaZDOLvvNU/видео.html
this guy is a Monster!!!
This dude is a freakin god.
0:11 The picking example with muted strings is misleading (he upstrokes the high E when descending while this is not the case on the actual lick). Any comment on that Troy?
Can’t wait to hear the solos he composes for the next Megadeth album🤟😎
00:48 area, sounds very interesting
So fucking clean 😨
This sweeps are clear than my future :(
Dunno if I want to cry, and give up, or get motivated, and try to get better.
Its amazing what humans can do.
Hey Troy. do you have any opinion on Obsidian C from the band keep of kalessin's playing style. His right hand work is unmatched as far as i have discovered. Not the typical shredder but still.
Love the show, keep rockin
It would be great to get some insights into the technique of these rhythm players. Some of them are insane.
I love obsidian C's riffs. Armada is one of my favorite albums.
Fun fact…after watching this I recently learned my guitar is flammable
Troy, have there ever been cases that made you think like "Oh, I wish we had Phantom Flex for this...»?
+Magnus Hammersmith Only with John Taylor! For everything else honestly a high quality 120fps is more than enough.
Troy, have you ever talked to Yngwie about coming on the show?
Any infos for the release of the new website and the new interviews? Cheers!
PRO PLAYER 👌👍
A Troy interview without a magnet? That's like Slash without his top hat! Haha! Awesome stuff all the same though, this should be a cool interview.
Time to reactivate my MofM subscription!! Btw, this footage is of really great quality and shows a lot of the picking technique almost as good as the magnet. Does this mean, no more magnet? (just curious)
We did this type of shot here so he could do tapping, which you'll see in his intro songs. I didn't want to intefere with that. But for everyting else, it's risky. You can see that I didn't really nail the focus here - the end of his fretboard is perfectly in focus, his hand is not. This is partly because any time the player gets up or moves, or leans while playing, you can lose your focus distance. A camera attached directly to the guitar would be a much safer bet, but currently there is no headstock mount for phones. Ther are GoPro mounts, but the lens is too wide angle to capture closeup detail like this on the hand. So for the moment this was the best option. We'll keep experimenting.
Anyone else remember Imperanon?
Yes.
The Modern Hermeticist fuck yeah dude. such great melodic music
Hell yeah! Stained turned 13 years old recently but Teemu only played on the 06 demo.
Bro, i couldnt remember the name of that band. Thank you so much.
INSANE🤯🤯🤯
This guy is the most obvious two-way pickslanter i've ever seen! O_o
Jimmy Bruno style of picking!
Look at his fingers, they are dancing..
Amazing player, what kind of great music if Teemu meets Kiko?
where can i get tabs for these amazing arpeggios?
also i second the motion to invite rick graham
Brutal.
Dude is amazing.....just threw my guitar in the trash....maybe I'll try bass or drums
he just channeled the sorcerer supreme @1:09
dude is a f-ING monster on guitar
Can anybody tell me what guitar pick he is using? It looks nice!
Quick google:"Both Jari and I are using Dunlop Ultex Sharp 1.0mm custom picks"
That was a few years ago that they said that. I'm not so sure they are using the same picks now. That pick looks thicker than 1 mm for sure.
Looks like Black Fang,James Hetfield signature pick.
They still use Ultex sharps, that one doesn't look like one though...
That's definitely not it. The Black Fang picks are black and nowhere near as thick.
This kid is going places. Maybe one day he could even play for Megadeth.
Dare to dream!
hey troy do you have any solutions how to tackle 2 note per string sequences? starting with up or down strokes.. at high speeds theyre hard af
Are you familiar with pickslanting? That's how 2nps phrases work for most players. You can check out any of our Eric Johnson features/lessons right here on the channel for that.
Sick licks
