THANK YOU for such a comprehensive breakdown of who I think is the most underrated guitar player of the 80s, extremely quirky unique style, and what I always loved about the dudes playing is that he really never copied anyone else or played the same thing (solo) twice sure we all borrow techniques but he said it best himself in an interview that in the 70s 80s everyone was trying to copy evh" while he was a slave to his ears exclusively and whatever theory he picked up. These licks are sweet can't wait to get them under my fingers, you chose some that also aren't the typical ones that come up often so that's awesome too! thanks again man you rock, I always look forward to these kind of tutorials! 😊🤘
@@JbfMusicGuitar not a problem dude I love getting inspired as well especially diving into players that are not soo well known/mainstream or underrated so anytime I can pay it forward I'm more than happy to! With that in mind and whenever you get around to it I have another "in the style of tutorial/artist" request that will BLOW YOUR MIND if the lynch licks haven't already 😉 search up : "Michael Lee firkins" and let me know what you think! the top 3 songs I recommend you search for inspiration are: "laughing stacks" "rain in the tunnel" "hula hoops" I can send you the tabs for these 3 over email and I bonus lynch lick that I've come up with) if you'd like it to help you out! This guy is a master at using the whammy to fake a slide guitar, very unique style for sure I can't think of another guitarist who does it as seemlessly. Cheers mate thanks again for all the awesome content! 🤘 😊
Hey man, yeah I actually know of Michael Lee Firkins; great player. Have been meaning to be a whammy bar lesson looking at him and/or Jeff Beck. Heard a clip from Jason Becker's new album, think it was just yesterday, Firkins had a guest solo that was really great- as expected!
@@JbfMusicGuitar yeah man I agree he has 2 small solos in there and they are gold! I read somewhere that firkins was the first guy he called because back in 95 or so he played Beckers end of the beginning " for him, beautiful instrumental look that one up if you don't already know it! A Jeff beck and firkins whammy bar lesson would be amazing the 2 pros that really pay attention to note values and pseudo slide sounds rather than just dive bomb, horse noises (nothing wrong with those😁) if you still want the tabs let me know dude and myself and all of your subscribers would love to see a video tutorial like that! 😊
Great video. Mr Scary: If you watch the Dave Navarro interview with Lynch on Spread TV, it seems Lynch does double down-strokes ahead of the string skipping to avoid tricky alternate picking. Works really well for me and I think it’s technically easier than your approach.
Thanks mate, just checked out Bill Leverty; some really great chops and ideas reminds me of maybe somewhere between Lynch and the boys out of Skid Row? I'll have a better listen to his playing to see if I could make content around it, will let you know if I come up with anything :)
Awesome! He's a phenomenal guitarist who can blend the styles of Lynch and the boys at Skid Row, like his solo for Don't treat me bad is a prime example hahaha
i threw my guitar through the wall i have small hands those streches are rediculous for me lynch is a monster player and a beast ive met him super cool funny guy had me in stiches hes aa unorthodox player thinks outside the box of normalcy he uses the dreadfull flattend 5th like iomi pinch harmonics galore there will never be another george all hail lynch
The struggle is real! I've not got a great reach, so started checking out what how other player get round it, have found that not anchoring my fingers tends to get the best results.. still not easy stuff though!
Can you make another george lynch lesson about how he uses out of key notes. When listening to the Lynch Mod albums you will hear George Lynch note end or land on the 1-3-5-7 it often ends or lands on the 2-4-b5-6- or out of key note. Listen to all the Lynch Mod Albums and Dokken and focus on this to make a lesson on.
Cheers for the suggestion Wayne! It was a while ago I did this video, but I think it focused really heavily on his use of the b5th and some other out notes? But I might be mistaken!
@@JbfMusicGuitar yea try listening again to all the lynch mob albums solos and dokken solos to find out how lynch is ending and landing on 2,4,b5,6 and out of key notes to make a video lesson on
Here are a few tips to try out: Practice legato slowly, keep it nice and consistent. When pulling off, rather than just lifting your finger off, try to flick it through the string; a bit like you're picking, but with your left hand's fingers. Find some legato licks to practice. Make up some basic exercises. Try not to tense up your hand when doing legato. These will help you get a stronger sound and build stamina- it takes a while to get the technique smooth; to be honest it's something I'm always working on and refining! Hopefully those ideas will help you out, if give me a shout and I'll see if I can think of anything else :)
STAR LICKS George lynch video lesson in on youtube now which they somewhat explain the MODES of the licks. If you can watch the STAR LICKS George lynch video and make a lesson on what they are talking about how George lynch uses MODES in his licks. Plus George Lynch never ends on the root note, he Is always ending on an out of key note, 7th, flatted 5th, etc. Take a look at that to make a lesson
Great, thanks for the suggestion I'll check it out! Lynch usually strikes me as more of an exotic scale player, so it will be interesting to hear what his approach to more strict modal playing is. You're right, he really likes the b5th to end licks on- especially with some wide vibrato!
@@JbfMusicGuitar the STAR LICKS 80's VHS video is uploaded on youtube for now not for long im sure it will be taken down soon. But most of the licks he plays 2 different MODES by starting the lick in one mode and half way will change to another MODE. Plus the ending note will not be the root note.
@@JbfMusicGuitar yes try to break it down as to how he Is using modal scales and ending on notes other than the root notes. Depending on the chord changes I'm guessing he changes the modal scale based on the chord changes
I try to get it as low as possible until there's fret buzz, dead notes or bends get cut out. When that stuff starts to happen I'll raise it just enough to get rid of them. I probably tend to set my Strat up with higher action, but keep my Tele pretty low as well. Hope that helps?
I'd really like to dive in to their playing! Vito is on my list for sure, it's just a case of carving out enough time to do it! I can't way I know who Warren id off the top of my head though?
@@JbfMusicGuitar I am in can we do zoom or skype? I like zoom if we can get the sound right. I like your style of teaching. Here is my video ruclips.net/video/lj66pOiOUMk/видео.html
Good spot, lol! Thankfully not the guitar, that's just the camera's wide angle lens; means you can fit more of the guitar in at close range, the downside is you get a bit of distortion

Great point! Came across the same video, but was after I'd uploaded this, thanks for pointing it out :)
yngwei does the same thing alot ;)
#1 thing to capture the George lynch style/vibe. Good controlled Wide Vibrato!
Cara... muitíssimo obrigado pela força! Valeu demais 😎
Many thanks mate!
YOU SHOULD DEFINITELY DO A BILL LEVERTY GUITAR LESSON! BILL LEVERTY IS A GUITARIST FOR THE BAND FIREHOUSE.

Jack, i struggle really hard with legato. :(
sometimes my fingers can't get any sound with the pull offs and get tired really quick.

thanks for the tips! i'm trying this way. my picking is fine and it's getting better at least.
No problem man, happy to help out :)
@@JbfMusicGuitar
Guess what, my legato is better. :D
@@jmmb92 Awesome! That's great dude, props for sticking at it 🤘🎸🎶

How do you like your action setup on your guitars?
I try to get it as low as possible until there's fret buzz, dead notes or bends get cut out. When that stuff starts to happen I'll raise it just enough to get rid of them.
I probably tend to set my Strat up with higher action, but keep my Tele pretty low as well.
Hope that helps?
so awesome man! can you do some more videos on all the 80s shredders like warren and vito ex
I'd really like to dive in to their playing! Vito is on my list for sure, it's just a case of carving out enough time to do it! I can't way I know who Warren id off the top of my head though?
this kinda licks makes my hand hurt haha... i think im doing something wrong
You might be tensing up, or anchoring a bit to hard? Try loosening up and letting your hands move a bit more- see if those help at all?
do you do skype lessons?
I do! Have got a few slots open atm
@@JbfMusicGuitar I am in can we do zoom or skype? I like zoom if we can get the sound right. I like your style of teaching. Here is my video ruclips.net/video/lj66pOiOUMk/видео.html
Cool, if you want to message me on Facebook: facebook.com/JbfMusicAndGuitar
we can chat and sort it out on there
Flatted 3rds not flatted 5ths.
Not sure which bit of the lesson your talking about; but you could very well be right!
It looks like your guitar is bent wtf
Good spot, lol! Thankfully not the guitar, that's just the camera's wide angle lens; means you can fit more of the guitar in at close range, the downside is you get a bit of distortion
George didn't care then or now.
Didn't care about playing guitar? Would have assumed he did, otherwise, how would he get good
nice
Cheers bud, glad you liked it!
