    awesome, i just spent about 30 minutes learning this and getting it down, and now I really feel like I can start to actually play something new and exciting on guitar. I've been playing the same riffs and licks for a few decades now, my guitar progress had stalled out long ago and I was starting to get bored, then I discovered math rock. I can't thank you enough, your channel has really been an inspiration.

      Yes, but for a beginner playing that assymmetrical melody is quite challenging. So it makes sense to practice this way first.
      (at least it made sense to me when I learned it)

    • @LetsTalkAboutMathRock

      Sure! I played it as tapping in this video: ruclips.net/video/Ss2wmGiLwrQ/видео.html
      from 00:19
      I found it harder that way though. haha

      I’ve seen him tap it and strum it live, I guess it’s a dealers choice type deal. But it does sound tapped on the record.

      Let's Talk About Math Rock 😂 thank you for teaching this I’m going to be attempting this when have to the time to actually sit down and play. I haven’t been able to play because I haven’t learned to set up my own guitar and all the local shops are closed so I can’t get my guitars to make a note, so I’ve been practicing on my teenage engineering op-z and getting okay sounding loops out of it.

    I’ve seen him play it live and he’s done it both ways. With the next part being odd strumming patterns I’m gonna guess he picks them on the record.

    Question from South Korea...
    Hello Steve! I am a person who watch your lessons recently. I practice this riff on my acoustic guitar, and this is so hard.... I believe I can do better if I practice more and more, but I have just one question, how can you get more clear sound than me?! When I do pull off, other strings get touched... Let me know how to mute this useless string sound!!
    P.S My English is so poor but I wish you can understand :x

    I'd love to know how to figure out tunings by ear. With metal I used to kinda listen for open strings (usually lower ones) and then I could tell with it's a drop tuning or not, seems difficult to figure that out when the tunings are rather unconventional.
