Can you make a video about reading sheet music and time signature? By the way, I hope your channel will keep on teaching guitar players how to shred. Keep on Shredding 🎸🤟
😔 I really want to be got AWESOME speed like you and other guitarist out there but.. I try harder to get my own tricks on my own speed skill.. you know what, I always forgot what I've done before, how to speed up like I did before.. erghhh
I love that you said no one will give you an award for finishing first. You gave me my first big laugh of the day. Thank you Bernth. You so rock on multiple levels.
Tip 3 is something I learned years ago, and would like to highlight. I always struggled using metronomes - for some reason, I tune out the clicks or beeps and end ignoring it. What really helped me was using a drum machine or writing a simple drum beat in Guitar Pro. That made a massive difference helping me to keep time when practicing. Thanks for reminding me of that now I'm getting back into guitar again! I'll certainly try out these extra tips too and see how I get on.
The first exercise and the explanation behind it are extremely useful. I remember being a kid in highschool and thinking that all I had to do was pick as fast as possible, and I'd be this amazing talented musician. It ended up taking me almost a year to learn to slow down to anything under 32nd notes, and was extremely frustrating. Anyone here who is first starting out, this is very important. Take the advice.
Ever since I watched that sweep picking video I’ve been practicing daily with 3 different arpeggios that I discovered that I can alternate between and I was originally very slow but now I’ve picked up being able to do triplets in time to 120 bpm which to me feels fast but it isn’t. Never thought I’ve ever be able to sweep. Also I got rid of the banana hand technique that I was so used to using. I can actually relax my left hand for once it seems. Didn’t realize just how tense I get and it also makes sweeping a lot easier to do.
Sir, ur modified spider exercise helped me alot, it's really like a super power, thanks a lot for sharing!!! I would highly recommend that one!!! It boosted my playing like a superpower really!!!
@@JohnViguerie just go slow. Unless you have a physical disability you have no excuse to practice. Just do it very slowly straight up painful slowly. I could play at 200 bpm if I wanted but is usually practice slowly at 96 bpm to be sure I get as clean as possible
Good to see you back Master 😍😍 Learning a lot even though I play only acoustic and can't afford an E-guitar, and still anything doesn't stop me from playing those sick excercises and riffs 😂
I have the SoundBrenner metronome watch and app. Its great. You can set the clicks for quarter notes, 8th, 16th and several others. You can even adjust the sounds of the clicks. Wife got it for me for christmas a few years ago and its been a great practice tool.
Great video! I’d also add that if you can nail a complete song down to a metronome beat it’s really easy to thicken the sound up with layers as all you have to do is line up the parts and the whole song’s lined up. Way easier than multitracking by having to restart the song each time.
So i also use the reference points (note) on the click when using fast runs. I also have heard its really helpful if you can accent them. Obviously this is true to a certain extent. It gets tough to accent at a certain speed. Should i keep trying to accent? Or just make a mental note of the reference point? thoughts?
How you know when it's the right time to push your speed? And how long you're supposed to stay in a certain tempo to really be able to raise it? I love your videos mate, thank you!
Bernth, I'd like to join the community, but do you have any music theory lessons (scales, intervals, triads etc) or just practice for shredding? Thanks
A weird trick that has helped me get faster is intentionally setting the metronome 10-20bpm faster than I can play and trying to keep up with it, then slowing back down to my actual target speed. It isn't an absolute guarantee to work but usually helps.
Hi Bernth, love your videos. I'm just wondering if you are able to point me in the right direction. I've been playing for a year and a half and play every day for an hour or two. The problem I have is I never do practise routines because I just want to learn songs and then become frustrated with the song I'm learning and start another song, going round in circles. I really need a good practice routine but I'm struggling on where to start, and which ones I should focus on to begin with. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks
One way I got better was if I couldn’t play a song. I would create my own using elements of the song that I could play. It’s pretty fun. And I would set the metronome to a speed that was good enough for me to not strain my fingers and wrist trying to play.
Sir when I practice my left hand will be in perfect position but when I try to play some songs my left hand will go out of position which makes me difficult to play 😭 please can you suggest me some ideas to improve that mistakes..
Some years before i also got stuck in this kind of thing my left hand is not correct or my right hand is not in perfect position Buddy do belive me when you invest your time to practice then you will get better i mean just look at marty Friedman's right hand
any way to prevent string noise when playing with distortion? bc I sound good shredding on a clean sound but terrible with distortion due to string noise.
Could you please explain the picking pattern? Why is there a pick stroke UP (V) after the first 3 notes? My pick is coming down from the 8th fret, it seems like a pick stroke down would be easier instead of moving my plectrum in place so I can do a UP stroke??
I’ve been practicing scales for quite while now and then when I go to RUclips and listen to one of my favorite solo , I tried playing them but I’m unable to play the solo, what can I do?
Break it down into pieces maybe and practice slowly and gradually increase the speed , don't focus on other parts unless you have completely mastered the previous one .
I've reach 16th notes @ 150 bpm in acoustic guitar and Im using .012 gauge strings. I realised how playability affects your progress. It's almost impossible to go higher than 150 bpm because you cannot do the "light touch" on your fretting hand. It will just sound messy. The note will not ring.
I Don't know if you are watching this please help me my fingers stick to to the string when lifting off (when playing or imrovising on guitar). Its like my fingers are pulling off but i don't mean to. Sorry for my english I don't know if i make you understand my problem or not. Please help me

You break stuff down better than any guitar teacher on this site. I hope to join your community soon. Thanks for all you do!
In my opinion and experience, I've gotten way faster and tighter by doing speed bursts as John petrucci has said
Well imo i got more progress thru bernth...so
My left hand is crap.
I switched to 3/4 scale.
It seems impossible
@@petruccijohn1849 yes master

I like doing a 1 2 3 4 12345678 1 2 3 4 12345678 kinda pattern for bursts
It definitely helps to have rests when pushing your limits
Good to see you back Master 😍😍

Great! Just what i was looking for
Don’t know if you see the comments.
Buen big fan from Mexico.🇲🇽

Awesome video as always! Which vst did you use for that click sound?
Much informative
Can you do a tutorial on tone making?
you are awsome!
Love the "imagine dragons" style beat behind your metronome
If you don't have a band to practice with, you can do it with a practice amp, such as a Spark amp. :-)

I break all the rules of note Bernth, as long as it sounded good as you🖐
Or you use the Speed trainer in guitar pro
Great content!! & sub’d.
Im early my man ready to practice 🔥🔥
Glad to hear that, hope you have fun! :)
I find it very difficult to pick fast in acoustic guitar!! @Bernth, is it possible for me to pull this off in acoustic guitar??
I've reach 16th notes @ 150 bpm in acoustic guitar and Im using .012 gauge strings. I realised how playability affects your progress. It's almost impossible to go higher than 150 bpm because you cannot do the "light touch" on your fretting hand. It will just sound messy. The note will not ring.
@@jm7859 yes!! You're right!! I really can't hit the smoothness!! It's kinda frustrating 😂

Love THAT accent
Love From Pakistan ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Greetings to Pakistan! :)
Is anybody else picking up that this guy just might be a machine?
Como esta o corona ai
you got finger advantage you can play 4 note per string. hehe
Be a drummer originally, im the metronome.
The metronome is a guitarist's nightmare 👻
Saying things out loud in my head gets me in trouble quite often😈
1st ..
That was fast!
@@Bernthguitar i wish i could be this much fast in guitar😂
Trick no. 4 sounds like walking dead again. Are you huge fan of this series? :p
