Are you still practicing the SPIDER EXERCISE?
Let me know in the comments!
Cheers and sty #progress
Never done the spider exercise! Always hated it. But I do often do the chromatic 4-note-per-string chromatic up and down to warm up my alternate picking. Also I have used the right-hand-only tactic you suggest to work on really difficult parts. Cheers!
I use chromatic four notes per string on first second third string and also five or six note chromatics on those strings to reinforce timing and pick direction precision on starting and ending of sequences. I use them if i dont feel creative and need an exercise routine. When i get bored with that then i either learn new songs or i make up melodies using chord sequences. Chromatics really help precision which transfers well to non half step note sequences.
3:49 - This sounded awesome actually :D
Really like your Etudes and Workouts.
Cool video! Another example from actual song: "43% Burnt" by Dillinger Escape Plan (at about 0:40) - although I'm assuming it's sweeping rather than strict alt picking
Damn, I was actually occasionally still using the spider exercise to warm up! But using actual arpeggios probably does make mor sence....
I've been recommended this a few times, but never did it 😄 rightfully so, as it seems^^
What make and model guitar is that ? It sure is pretty.
Ibanez rgt1221pb-swl
It’s part of the 2024 catalog, premium line
I have never seen that exercise before
same
Spiders get smashed!!!! 💥
Recently you said that odd numbers of notes per string the pick changes direction on string changes and even the pick direction stays the same. Ive also noticed that the last and first note in odd numbers of notes the pick direction is the same first and last whereas even number of notes first and last notes pick changes directions. Alternate picking helps memory for note sequences and allows for precise timing or blurring the timing say as in three note per string scales. It also affords the player the liberty of deciding the sound as per outside picking, ie using downward picking to ascend and upward picking to descend or backwards, ie inside picking using upstroke to ascend scales and downstroke to start descending scales.
Ive played guitar since 1987. Only in the last six months have i progressed significantly.
Your point of music not exercises is correct for motivation, i use chromatic four notes per string to reinforce precise timing and make my movements smaller. Each players muscles and how they pick differs. Playing right handed my picking is much like Impelliteris, whereas if i play left handed the pick motion is smaller. This influences also my pick choice for sound and how the timing of hand synchronization works. For 20 yrs i used 1.5 mm picks. No longer. Its too dull and hides errors in picking plus makes my hand synchronization harder as the left hand fretting lags behind the right picking. So i use 0.88-1 mm. The 1 mm is for me, ideal.
I do practice also with the amp off as the electricity changes the muscle fiber contraction of the hands in addition to masking errors and the lowered volume of no amp protects my ears.
Lastly i use sweeps on arpeggios rarely. They do help in force production training however they dont allow for strict tempo and memory benefits that alternate picking brings.
Last point: because the pick changes direction on each string for three notes, the player can beat the metronome essentially interpreting the beat becomes highly personalized. Yngwies playing shows this as his timing is paradoxical. Someone like MacAlpine is more strict in his timing interpretations.
Thank you for your excellent training here.
Seems like you don't change your pick slanting in this etude 😮
I do. But my pickslant movement is pretty small.
@@justin.hombach perfect! 🤙🏼
I have to correct my self a bit after seeing the video again, at this tempo, pickslanting is not necessarily. I start using pickslanting around 8-10 notes per second. These are around 6-7 notes per second
@@justin.hombach interesting! Remembering Mile High Shred's video where he practicing pick slanting at the certain lick, and then ignore pick slanting at really high speed 😄
Justin, could you please review Golovin speedpicking technics?
