Isn’t this already a Patreon only video? ;)

There is a mistake on the legato G maj transcription and what you play, over D string

[@Johnhasa1]

This is gold. I've never been able to do fast runs, but I'm ready now.

[@don911donny9]

That was soooo good Rotem, I’m definitely including this in my daily routine.

[@RotemSivanGuitar]

Happy to help!

I've been playing for 32 years, many of those professionally when I was younger and around 12 months ago I started to try to learn to pick every note of incredibly fast licks, as it's just something I've never done. Somewhere in that, I started to play with my pick angled downward, such as a gypsy-jazz picker would, and wow, in the last few weeks I feel like something incredibly special is happening. I'm unlocking the technique if you will, but with my own personal 'slant' on it....pardon the pun. It feels as though I'm on the verge of unlocking something truly special. Great vids Rotem, I always enjoy your content. PS. It's funny, I'm also from Australia and when I said "with my own slant", it happens to be that I add some legato notes in the gypsy-jazz style runs, then I seen your comment about Josh Meader etc lol, very uncanny.

Absolutely great lesson and very well explained. Thankyou

[@andrewgilbert4246]

Thanks Rotem, Appreciate the variations to build technique.

[@zinc1024]

Spot on focus on my big issue: moving from slower "dip picking" to faster "double picking" mostly from the elbow, smoothly (that intermediate speed double picking is really hard), and having coordination between hands at faster double picking speeds. Practice ahead!!! TY!

[@MuLT1G4M3]

Loved the fact that you mentioned Josh Meader

[@RotemSivanGuitar]

He's the man.

[@wantanmee8716]

The subdivision exercise really offers a new way to practice for me. Great video. I really appreciate Rotem putting extra efforts to make this video easy to follow. Excellent!

[@Tjgast94]

Hey man! Really dig the work you're doing here! Was wondering if you have any videos on the right hand finger picking technique with the percussive element? Appreciate you!

[@invictvs-sol]

Great video, definitely going to try these!

[@romainperrin3061]

Thank toi Guy! I like your song !

This is just great, thanks so much for sharing this lesson. I want to join your Patreon but am still working through your Truefire course and don't want to take on too much at once. But Patreon is in the future!

[@RotemSivanGuitar]

No worries :)

[@therewillbejazz]

It is really amazing what level can be achieved with a lot of dedication and passion. I thank the universe for the music and for such inspiring personalities as you. You are doing a fantastic job and you are a great role model for me! Thanks very much

[@erikluo]

Man perfect timing! Been working on speed and accuracy lately, and this is perfect.

[@RotemSivanGuitar]

How are things there?

[@erikluo]

@@RotemSivanGuitar Going good! It's really intense like I've got so many things to work on everyday, but I'm learning a lot. You were right that playing with others is so helpful; because you need to listen more deeply. Jamming with people is one of my favorite things to do now! It's so fun. Thanks so much for pushing me to do it!

[@michaelschmidt781]

Your videos are very instructive.

[@RotemSivanGuitar]

Thanks!

[@saschavbt]

Hi Rotem, can you do a video or please give a short answer here on when to use hammer-ons vs. pull offs vs. alternate picking? I realize all these techniques are important but am fairly confused on when the right time is to use them

[@manueliglesias1210]

Hey thanks! cool exercises!

[@RotemSivanGuitar]

❤️

[@MissVonDunajew]

it feels so calm and beautiful, another great video! so many times we go for the fast playing...keeping it at 40bpm and really elaborating in those subdivisions is such great advice! thank you again!

[@brandonrobinson1785]

Can you maybe make a video about how to prevent tendonitis from all these repetitive finger movements?

[@ShineDawg]

Awesome video and exercises

[@RotemSivanGuitar]

🙏

[@rvmusictv0122]

Thanks a lot man!

[@RotemSivanGuitar]

Sure thing!

It's incredible how Rotem is able to take playing on guitar in one way very simple but also very complex.

[@RotemSivanGuitar]

Thanks Jakub!

[@manvendrarawat1758]

I use economy picking a lot , can that be a substitute for alternate. I am able to play alternate picking paterns or licks using that , but would definitely like to know your take on that.

[@MrRickkramer]

I heard “flight of the bumblebee” in there. Can you play that? Sounds like possible you can..

[@fabiovettore2212]

Hi Rotem In the first exercise of the first series can i accentuate the first beat or I have to go Straight. Forgive my english i am italian thanks

[@janeandthecoolcats5033]

little bit more light in the background , thx 4 ur vids

[@RotemSivanGuitar]

Ill try!!

[@janeandthecoolcats5033]

@@RotemSivanGuitar Hey - I just saw a video this science channel 'Veritasium' and understood sth regarding the light in your background. The explanation is (quote from the video) : videos / img with higher contrast are perceived by the brain with more cognitive ease'. So not the light - but the contrast was the problem why I perceived it as more difficult to watch. Hope this explanation helps. Thx again for what you're doing.

[@emmanuelsaintsurin3741]

Can you do a lesson on fingers independence?

[@RotemSivanGuitar]

I'll try!

[@Maynard0504]

I also like either accenting or skipping the subdivisions randomly.

[@RotemSivanGuitar]

Totally

Hey Rotem - wish I could contact you directly. There is an active scammer posting with your picture in your guitar giveaway video comments.

[@RotemSivanGuitar]

Oh man!! Sorry!!

[@peterlloyd5285]

What exactly is the purpose of this? Does it increase a guitarist's ability to back up a singer; play with another guitarist; play an appropriate part for a song; write a hook; play over a particular groove; play through a particular chord change, or is it a load of wank?

[@RotemSivanGuitar]

That's a good Q. Might be just what you mentioned. It depends on how you use it. ❤️
