Thank you Richard! I wish that I had found this long ago. Better late than never to learn.

Great advice and tips Richard, thanks, and tasty playing as ever. Really like your take on 'The Pump', very classy indeed. 👍

[@mattchurchill]

Great vid, lovely playing.

[@imacmadman22]

Look at that! I am a Herco pick user myself @richardbarrettguitar1228 I use the same pick and sometimes alternate with the Flex 50. Another fantastic and useful video from Guitarist!

[@michellewilson8845]

Very informative, i've learned a lot another great video.

[@johnsmith-ug5tp]

Beautiful outro Richard.

[@colink4823]

Great video. What’s you pick, flexible or stiff

[@richardbarrettguitar1228]

Usually at least 1mm. I don’t like the pick to be absolutely rigid, but too flexible can cause me problems. Having said that, I hear Paul Gilbert has changed to quite thin picks and he seems to manage fine 😁

[@pilotgi]

Very well done.

[@jstanotherguy77]

Great video

[@jeremyversusjazz]

Most underrated…or under-appreciated guitarist on the Tube.

[@danmist]

You could do an entire lesson on that first C major 7 arpeggio.

[@brenb87]

This is so good and wonderful tone. What guitar is that?

[@richardbarrettguitar1228]

Thank you 😁 It’s a Knaggs SSC - a real favourite of mine!

[@MaurizioPaura]

Great advice, thank you! Just curiosity, what pick gauge do you favor?

[@richardbarrettguitar1228]

Thank you! In this video I’m using a grey Herco Flex 75 (approx 1mm), but I also really like the Dunlop Delrin 500 (.96mm) and the red Jazz iii XL (1.38mm). I switch between them sometimes for a change 😁

[@andrenascimento5851]

​@richardbarrettguitar1228 that's useful. Great video. Thanks you 🙏🏻

[@MaurizioPaura]

@@richardbarrettguitar1228 Thank you very much for the information, I appreciate it!

[@Low.Key.Music01]

That's a cool looking guitar. What is it?

[@DrMetal1978]

Pick slanting , see Troy Grady

[@richardbarrettguitar1228]

Yes, the Troy Grady/pick slanting stuff is great, but that’s only part of what I’m talking about here.
