3NPS Major Scale

@@guitargurukulribandargoa5834 What Do You mean Please ?

@@guitarvibes1828 I think 3nps means three notes per string

I call that song "the bulldozer song", The intro is so heavy it turns into black hole

He picks one note and begins to the fret the rest as form of "legato" or slur of notes connect smoothly rather than picked. That's different from your standard alternate picking down up down up and vice versa. Legato will make your fretting hand do all of the work whereas Tremolo picking is really fast, aggressive picking with very little fretting work to alot.

Its all legato, he picks once, then uses his fingers to sound the notes

Why just not just pick the chord. Whats the benifits?

@@bojitsu123 it can free up your pickong hand and its better for when you're playing really fast licks. Also it can sound different

I see thanx

Slow doesn’t exist in his vocabulary

Pfff nice

Lul

Lmao

Steve Smith now he looks like the son of Santa 🎅🏻

His muscles too.

He's basically a Norse god these days...

Sydaball not if you try to figure it out..

I get it too..... He's an alien !

theone1 because he is a god

theone1 Pick only when changing strings Do it slowly Think about snapping your fingers ,when we snap we have to do it fast,its not about how hard we press our fingers ,its the speed. Just take your time and do hammer ons down the fretboard first for a few weeks. Like a major scale 6th string 4-5-7 5th 4-5-7 4th 4-6-7 3rd 4-6-7 2nd 5-7-9 1st 5-7-9 Just slowly stretch and hammer on down down down Take ur time It takes weeks to build strong hands

Hi, I'm gonna reply to this message 5 years late because I see nobody technically answered your question, and I would find it amusing if this actually helped. As you obviously noticed, he did only pick when ascending during that specific part of the exercise, but not while descending. This is because when you ascend you're starting the next string with your index finger, which is, ideally, already laying on some of the strings in order to keep them muted. If you wanted to use that finger to hammer on while ascending you would have to remove it from the fret board and then hammer back down, thus leaving the higher strings without muting for that moment. This causes both uncontrolled noise AND requires extra movement due to not being able preposition the index finger, which is inefficient, especially for fast playing. But when you descend here, you're using your pinky first, which should already be in a great position to immediately hammer down and pull off, thus not truly requiring picking. If it helps, you can think of it like tapping, but instead of using your picking hand to start the tap, you're just using your fretting hand to do it. I hope that makes sense! (Also the comment above mine did give some good advice, but their comment didn't quite answer specifically what you asked. No offense intended to that comment, though)

demonrule try putting masking tape on the neck and mark them, or your could always make a chart.

Or learn a bunch of songs... that always works for me.

Try to learn the note on the first two strings. And then learn the shape of the octave relative to the root note. It'll seriously "unlock" the fretboard and you'll learn the board gradually without much difficulty.
