This guy has stupidly good technique
harry wilson Well he meticulously studies and breakdowns other technique in his videos so that’s no surprise really lmao
He cracked the code
ya eric johnson does have good technique which is all that this guy is playing, johnson licks
He has incredible technique. He has analysed in a scientific way most of the best rock guitarists in the world and worked out how they do what they do.
@@mrmisterman999 You're completely missing the point of this channel, aren't you? Back to your bedroom.
Absolute savagery!
being a RUclipsr gives you thumbs up for every comment you write. It's hard to be famous ;)
Ben Eller uncle ben, you here?
of course!
savage yet mechanical, cold and devoid of musicality.
Slack bitch you must be deaf then
It’s amazing how versatile and prolific the 5 note pentatonic scale can be.... especially when Eric Johnson handles it
So.... Many.... Notes!!!
+Ben Eller Sup, Uncle Ben
oh howdy!
Sooo good!!
Robert Baker hi Robert!
Can someone please explain me the mixolydian mix he played at 1:00
I'm in love with that sound ❤️❤️
@@subhrajyotiroy6042 he mixes key mixolidean notes (from the mixolidean mode) with the root pentatonic scale. This is what slash does all the time.
Slash in the old days was a bit more Dorian based adding the 9th often
Every time I watch your channel, it rekindles my desire to practise, no matter how burnt-out I feel.
This.
Lars Erik Vestergaard For real man! I feel the same.
That's high praise Lars -- thank you! Glad you're enjoying our stuff.
Agree 100% - massively inspiring.
Picking is the one weak point in my playing. I analysed legato to death like picking has been done here. I've discovered I'm an up-slanter, not a down-slanter. My problem is I still struggle to tremolo pick quickly.
Keep up the good work, Troy - highly informative & useful material - and very entertaining and inspiring.
In the history of guitar instruction no one has ever taken this much time to painstakingly analyze every aspect of picking and present it in such a professional manner. The EJ pack alone is worth the price of a season 2 pass. Fantastic work - Thanks
Thanks! Glad to hear you're getting your money's worth. We aim to please.
George Clooney blazing.
Impressive and interesting!
Troy, Im no pro, but I swear, just watching you makes me play better.
In all seriousness, I never once thought about pick angles, extrapolating locations, nor the focus on economizing my picking and attacks. I've always enjoyed your lessons, but only lately got "serious" with them, and seriously I feel like I've blown through some walls I've been struggling with for years and years in only a matter of days.
Hope all guitarists stumble on your vids!
JgHaverty Hey, Brendan here from the Code team. Thanks for the note, and awesome to hear - glad the videos have proven useful!
It's true, watching great players definitely rubs off on you.
@@8triagrammer Same with spending time with people smarter than oneself or in a sport.
@@siggeek503 yeah exactly, it's documented that running with people faster than you makes you run faster, like in track & field type stuff.
I've got two hours practise in and i am absolutely LOVING this lesson pack! finally somebody who breaks down the EJ techniques properly. Troy you sir are a legend!
My guitars don’t have these notes. I have to contact Gibson and Fender about this. I think I was ripped off.
Man, you give me life by this comment 😂🤣
What a brilliant comment! And I concur I think I'll join you in a class action suit against"BIG GUITARMA".... I want reparations I want more fret rebates LOL
I truly am excited that I came across this talented young man. I've been playing for over 35 years and metaphorically my fingers are tripping over each other trying to get where my ears have witnessed great players from time to time .
⭐⭐⭐😁
With this man breaking down slowly every Nuance I can absolutely learn it slowly ⭐then a little bit more than a little bit more than a little bit more and in a year or two realistically I can flow pretty good with those licks. My ears and capabilities have grown in the last many years with others like him teaching me but this man is the top! Thank you buddy bless you for the help. Playing some of the fun and difficult things I've mastered over the years give such joy and I am looking forward to practicing this stuff for the next several years more than ever.
Man I got the same problem!!
You were man!
Get you a Hondo2 they are there
I like how you sneaked "Trademark" into your title, too. :)
Dude I find you everywhere!
Eric Johnson Stuff
Greg Howe
Vinnie Moore
Metallica
I find you in places that are totally mainstream and in places with guitarists no one listens to. Even on a couple political videos I think. But you have a good taste in music 👍
bounce tenths and mixolydian mix were my favorites
Gotta love those spicy mixolydian flavors!
I got chills when the image of Eric Johnson showed up at the end of episode 2. He's one of my favorites and I've had the chance to see him live a couple of times. It was cool to learn that he mostly uses downward pick slanting.
The performance notes for this pack are EPIC. I love it. That and the inclusion of mid-tempo demonstrations in the videos are super helpful.
Love it..great stuff wish I had this information back in the late 80s. Thanks for putting all the time and figuring it out.
You are the best I've seen in terms of technique, speed and tone. Great teaching style as well... Thank you!
Blown away as always! The information is very articulate. The playing is incredible. The production brilliantly keeps up with each lesson.
This is seriously good stuff. I've never heard anyone on youtube nail that opening cliffs of dover pentatonic run with the same speed and signature EJ sound. I'm still trying to get the picking down.
Billy Bob Awesome, thanks! Glad you're finding it useful.
0:27 the Bounce Tents are my favorite. So powerful.
So clean and I love the tone. As good as Eric is no matter what people say I think this matches Eric and is if not better. These videos have helped me improve my speed and picking at levels I thought I’d never be able to achieve. Thanks Troy.
Watching this 7 years later Troy you are a beast and have unlocked so much of my guitar potential
Just picked up a Season 2 Pass. THANK YOU Troy and crew for all your hard work! It's $30 well spent. Like you and so many others, wish I could've had this kind of insight into pick technique and motion mechanics years ago. Looking forward to watching my playing change with great improvement through this stuff. Thanks and God bless! :-D
I’ve been practicing a few of these and I finally got it up to this speed. Your lessons are crazy effective. Thanks again Troy.
The Mixolydian mix starting at :59. Favorite part.
It’s really nice to see these scales slowed down to a pace where I can learn them easily.
Sir, you are one of the most complete and technical guitar player that I have ever seen, congratulations for you passion and thank you for share your knowledge with the community of musicians around the world. I'm from Mexico Pro guitar player. Blessings brother.
Damn Troy you really have got picking down to a science, I don’t know anyone else EVER to study picking to this degree and teach what you have discovered. Thank you so much. Your picking is dead on, spot on precision, awesome !!
i am so excited been waiting for ages for this! thank you so much
incredible how helpful this video is
Awesome job, Troy! Your tone is fab.
Great lesson. Nailed it quikstyl. Thank you.
Keep rockin'.
MK
So good!!! Keep it coming Troy!
God bless you Troy Grady!
Wow wow wow , just stunning !
Super Clean at lightning speeds. INSANE HYGIENE
Mind-blowing!
Killing it!!
Top drawer Troy. Wonderful attack and clarity. Inspiring, whilst being a tad deflating at the same time!!
Great playing.
Nice and Clean Troy.
Wow Troy , haven't dropped by in a while,man,, the tone the super clean attack and free flowing ( mixolydian magic ,)runs , outstanding ma man, outstanding !
Quick note for anyone using this to learn the intro to Cliffs of Dover (like me); there is an extra full bend in the EJ version, located in the tablature (from the Masters in Mechanics subscription) on the 3rd 16th note of the 2nd beat in the 4th measure (14th fret of the 3rd string).
Technically not a mistake, because the tabs are accurate to Troy's hands, but EJ plays it slightly differently. Happy practicing! Thanks for the awesome content Troy!
Super Helpful Troy! Great technique!
Oh man- the mixolydian riff was so awesome. What a great sound!
heeeeey i have known about eric johnson for a while, but just now i got what he was all about, really great !!
LOVE the mustang, the scale size of neck really make it easier to play that stuff!
Holy crap!! Perfect pitch of eric he has such remarkable skills and tone.. his pickimg techniques are of course outstanding and his string skipping is galactic... good job troy keep those videos comn
Thanks Dominic!
I just signed up. It's sick. He's a gnarly teacher.
TG’s bounce is sick
BEAUTIFUL PLAYING!!!!
Troy man, you are my absolute favorite player!
Insanely great!
Thank you!
You inspire me to work harder bro! Love your channel.
bad ass bro, lots of years of work in your playing, thats the key..
love it
Holy crap! I know Troy places a lot of focus on the picking aspect, but I love how a couple of those licks looked like real "finger twisters" with regards to the fretting hand! I always feel so proud when playing a continuously flowing line and in the middle of it I do something like transition from fretting, let's say, the 12th fret with my pinky, to fretting the 14th fret a couple of strings away with my ring finger, and vice versa...makes for an interesting-looking flow of notes.
From one Troy to another... I think eric needs to watch this video... I first herd eric while cruising back in 89 or 90 when he had just released ah.via musicom. Trademark and cliff's of Dover were the only two songs getting any airplay. Trademark came on and I pulled over at the nearest payphone and called the station and asked who is this guy playing guitar? I drove straight to peaches records and bought his CD. He is still my favorite guitar player and I go and see him whenever he comes within a 200-mile radius of my town. Had a good conversation with him and Chris Maresh back in 03 I think was the year when Alien love child was put together. I was amazed at how humble and soft-spoken ej is.. Just a really all around great guy as I and my friend felt like that clip in the movie Waynes world..We're not worthy! We're not worthy! anyway thanksTroy for making erics unique playing style a little bit easier to emulate... Have a wonderful Day. Troy Dawes.
:12 the hardest thing for me is picking an ascending pattern. I can do the down part okay but going up... just prob gave up a long time ago and never knew what to practice. So when I hear one going up like that it's the old intimidation feeling. You just know you'll never be able to do it. hehe
I get the same thing with the very first 3 notes in Euegene's Trick Bag/Paganini's 5th Caprice. All the other arpeggios and picked lines are managable with practice, but I rarely get through the first half second unscathed
Well that woke me up!
Wow! That that intro to cliffs was played about as well as could be! Bravo! I think you're one of the best guitar players alive. I don't care what anybody says.
Holy shit!!! Love it Troy!!! Time to play!!!
AND,, if you watch Troys video's and practice what he shows you, you can also pick like this. He is the best guy on earth to learn picking secrets from.
Oh great, now I got even more self confidence issues watching you play so excellently.
.. beautiful playing.
your playing and tone are amazing. great work.
I remember your videos/shred cam in my early days of guitar playing nice technique
Dude, you're a huge inspiration in my guitar journey.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge and skills. You've helped me become a better player!
No problem!
that was incredible!
Sounds so awesome! Keep up the entertaining vids.
Troy as an intermediate player, your techniques have helped me get to where I am, you're literally a god
Definitely not literally a god! But very happy to have helped. Thanks for watching our stuff.
@@troygrady me and 184k others disagree my friend! But always gonna look to this channel when I'm in a rut😌
thanks troy thats a real masterclass
mostruoso!! grande Troy!
You sir, are a monster.
Wonderful tricks my friend! Congratulations and go ahead!
Smooth as silk 👌🏼
Super awesome stuff, love me some eric johnson licks
Thanks!
Chapeau bas 😉
Insane technique 😮
Oh my God ! What a sound !!!!!!!
Darn it...my face just melted! Thanks a lot!
you're a maniac dude. insanely great playing
great playing as always! it's actually harder to play pentatonic scale in high speed than the natural mode
Just incredible.
Amazing!!!
Insane. Hughes respect.
this video changed my guitar life...forever
I just subscribed. This is the first time I’m seeing you! I wish it would’ve been sooner, mate!
Hahahahahaha!
Was not expecting that! Well done sir.
Troy you are a great teacher and we appreciate what you do. You take the trouble to break down stuff that many would not even notice until they see your videos and experience the "EUREKA" moment. But those above EJ licks sound like they are played by a robot. Every note is precisely executed. There seems nothing wrong yet it doesnt sound like right.
Those bounce tenths were sensational
Incredible!
That one Trail of Tears lick was fucking SIIICK!!! God damn it Troy, you just won me back for another month!!
Holy canoli! I wonder if Troy Grady dreams in cascading pentatonics from mastering these techniques.
Absolute inspiration
Oh my goddddd this is super insaneeeee
Bounce tenths just sound extraordinary
they are some impressively sick skills you have
I may have to steal that camera/vice trick. I can see that as a coming fad in guitar videos. What a great idea.
Super Awesome 👏 i thought that was the biggest capo i’m looking at 😜
