Part 3 is HERE - kzbin.info/www/bejne/nmqbYYaPrJqkeac

[@starmanoretorno]

6:55

[@jacksonv672]

Are those fret dots lit up or do i have a tumor?

[@zackmayguitar6820]

you have a tumor

[@RobertBakerGuitar]

Haha nope they light up 😉

[@aarongalindo898]

jam now on guitar both

[@Ibaneddie76]

It's not a toooomah!

[@thecrystaleagleguitarandga821]

eddie julian I love kinder garten cop!

[@thegoldensubway4182]

My goodness that guitar glows like the sun ! Great color .

[@RobertBakerGuitar]

I know i love this one

[@enriquerico5107]

Robert Baker what guitar brand is that guitar?

[@inter-vals_9484]

It looks like sun burst and cherry burst. The red definitely looks better than the black on the edges with regular sunburst designs. Sick

[@noelbodies8784]

Didn’t realise it was there till you mentioned it.

[@precisionbrown6829]

It’s the lights 😋

[@JammyGit]

If these licks are easy there's no hope for a guitarist like me at the moment 😆

[@javierarias1199]

Dont give up... practice everyday ....you will be there

[@The68lespaul]

L.M.A.O. I still say it, don't give up, theres plenty of material out here today more now than ever, so use everything that's out here to help you like these vids, some are easier than others, some are harder, depends on your skill level, I read tabs, watch these kind of video,s and jam with some friends that show me some cool shit, but what really makes me go after it ,is I love a song SO DAMN BAD, IVE GOT TO KNOW IT, I JUST HAVE TO OR DIE, plus no matter how long it takes you , you will build up a nice song list,it may take a while, but you,ll get there just like I did, you start with one then just keep going, and before you know it, you,ll have a mean song list, and be playing pretty damn good, so don't worry about how long it takes or how hard you think it is to get down tight to a T , just make sure that when you do learn a song get every sound you hear that you think is the guitar, even go after other sounds you hear in a song, for me, I LOVE IT WAY TOO MUCH TO STOP, ID DIE IF I COULDNT PLAY MY GUITAR be honest,ask yourself, how much do I love it? is it something I have to do ? am I willing to put the time and dedication and make yourself learn it, no matter what else happens in your life play that guitar, and keep playing it, but only stick to it if you truly love it and must do it , because it means more than anything else in your life, its at the top of your to do list everyday, if your heart has to have it, then don't worry about it, just keep at it, and give it your all don't go at it half assed, give it all you got, try as hard as you can, everytime you pick it up give it your absolute best ,put all your heart into it, it,ll come ,

[@nomorebs]

Almost any lick/ riff becomes easy once you've playec it enough. Even a song you might struggle with for months suddenly your at practice and the drummer tells you you are playing it way too fast.. Then i clicks..... You've gotten used to struggling so as you improve you subconsciously increase the speed so it still seems like you are struggling the same when in fact you are attempting to play it much faster than previous.

[@alfiefernandez9583]

Michael Angelo Batio said. Practice3x and you will get.

[@rhythmtreble7311]

this isn't for immediate and general beginners. it's for people who're comfortable enough with minor pentatonic and certain alt stuff. should be for beginner shredders.

[@TrevorPrinceMusic]

Now i'm about to overly use these licks

[@sydneyduchaine4832]

Same! :D

[@AKASHSHARMA-uo4dj]

same lol

[@taliesinangling3564]

That is an excellent idea brandonn

[@richardbinder9662]

Awesome. I'm 53 and decided to go to college. There's a guitar club and everyone has an acoustic and are beginners. Brought my custom Flying V with floating Floyd Rose. I showed how to do a simple dive bomb and harmonic rise. At the end of the first meeting some went out and bought electrics. Just showed them for fun.

[@bleromafia]

Richard Binder sounds like an awesome guitar wow

[@nuclearcowproductions5950]

Waselt youtube is a great tool for making random people think their opinions matter lol

[@richardbinder9662]

Waselt No problem didn't take it personally. I'm not a bad player but damn that whammy is fun.

[@JMetalGuitarist]

I remember one substitute guitar teacher i had for a while that had one of those really noce ibanez models with the handle carved out of the body, i asked him what the significance of thw me whammy bar was to him and his answer was magical it was something along the lines of, “that, my good sir is an essential staple of all rock music” and proceeds to do a dive bomb followed by weird picked note lowering bends. But unfortunately you don’t appear to have one so let’s do something else.

[@dogfacedboy6947]

Whoa. By any wild coincidence - are you the FOUNTAIN PEN R. Binder? Holy Moley, I'm-a being stalked!!! It's stubby, here if soo-oo! My other persona has activated - Rock Star - has been in ascendency for YEARS now. If you'r NOT the "real" Richard Binder tho, boy am I ever babbling... .

[@YouTw1tFace]

The first lick is definitely advanced. Your combining: alternate picking, pull offs, and economy picking. Anything with three different techniques at that speed is not a beginner lick imo.

[@FrancoM7747]

And a layover.

[@KyleP133]

Its simple to learn, moderate to master, that's perfect for something like this.

[@nicholasr5146]

Yea, I found that out when I tried, couldn’t coordinate it properly

[@jo83301]

Its not going to happen overnight, especially if you're a beginner....

[@Ogscottyp]

Man your sound is out of this world. The layers of reverb, delay and mild modulation just blends so well into a sonic dream. And your playing....FUHGET ABOUT IT.

[@stitchripper]

"I'm not going to do that..... because I can't"..... That made me smile. I appreciate the honesty. I've been playing for what seems like a million years, and there are a few licks that I can't do also..... that crazy-fast Eric Johnson hybrid picking lick is one of them.... :-) Keep up the great work and the videos. You have great tone and serious chops.

[@RC32Smiths01]

I thought you were going to play Cliffs of Dover with that bend at the beginning! Great and helpful video my man \m/! Summer just started for me, and I am ready to give my all to the 6-string!

[@ashtonschuler683]

RC32 I thought that too

[@RC32Smiths01]

Ye exactly my man. Cliffs of Dover, on it's own, is a very iconic bending intro!

[@jwardbass4452]

Yes

[@kedrick350]

In cliffs of cover the bend was on 1st string, but rob did that bend on the 2nd one mate.

[@RC32Smiths01]

I guess I was talking about just the general sound of the bend, in how it sounds like the bending sound that Eric plays in the beginning of Cliffs of Dover. I actually didn't know that was on the 1st string lmao.

[@rrrripbing]

I like the lick you play at the start 0.08 to 0.11 . I use variations on that combination of notes a lot as they're comfortable to play but always sound interesting especially with the flat 5. Great lesson by the way. Very clear and well explained.

[@RobertBakerGuitar]

Part 2 is HERE! kzbin.info/www/bejne/rKqTeKSjlLN_rbs

[@bloodywolfjones4589]

Robert Baker love the hey Arnold t shirt man

[@timothymccaskey4362]

Robert Baker: I've always enjoyed your guitar tutorials. You take complicated progressions and riffs and explain them in an easy to understand format. Kudos!

[@caseycoughlin4975]

Robert Baker hey where do you live?

[@AnGela30922]

thanks a lot man

[@GGAllienn]

Been playing for a few months now I am completely addicted since I've picked up my electric i am in love I've just been playing by ear kinda just getting a feel for my guitar that's cracked I got from a pawn shop lol but hey it works...but these type of videos keep me going and keep it fun! So thank you ^_^

[@leslawrenson]

Do more of this stuff. I'm just getting into sequencing patterns all over the neck, through scalar runs and pentatonic runs, and it is improving my technique beyond my expectations! I'm moving onto arpeggio patterns around the neck, so I was very interested in your George Lynch lick. Very tasty! That can, of course, be used for both major and minor arpeggios, and is a neat little utility device. Great videos, very clearly taught. You've earned yourself a brand new subscriber, my friend!

[@DeadStereo_]

Finally a video that doesn’t have a guy talking a whole hour before showing, this is great lesson, thank you

[@trumpetplayerdude9838]

The bohemian rhapsody solo Is one that comes to mind as being deceptively easy. It's difficult to learn, but once you get it down it's easy as pie

[@areskoch2194]

Can you please do a video on some fast, shreddy 80s licks to incorporate into your solos. Love you bro.

[@TheArtofGuitar]

Great vid YT guitar brother!

[@julesavalon9061]

i am also your yt guitar brother, just mum loved me less );

[@julesavalon9061]

and it shows in my playing

[@paul-lol]

Hey man I love your videos

[@JohnHWelch63]

I love the LED fretboard inlays. That looks like and sounds like a nice guitar too. It looks very well built.

[@Radical110]

1:49 who else looked around their room

[@dataglasses]

I liked the intro lick the best

[@brian1749]

That was freaking mind blowing!!! Thank you for this lesson! Especially, the George Lynch one!

[@57stratkat]

The hardest part of all of this, for me, is the picking hand patterns - shortening the pick movements and getting the direction right. Thanks for describing the pick directions - that is super helpful.

[@leobargianni377]

one seemed a gilbert lick from "will my screen door stop neptune", awesome

[@fiveish77]

8:15 when people ask me to keep playing a song after i play its most popular riff

[@thegunslinger7377]

Rarest things in the world: White Tigers, Orange Lobsters, and Roberts phone not going off during a video.

[@laoxhype9067]

Toki!!

[@ERMAV]

These are licks that everyone should practice all the time. I have been doing these licks every time I pick up my guitar (except for gigs cause who wants to listen to that). My playing has gotten noticeably better in just 2 weeks. Thanks for the guidance:)

[@Cognitoman]

Really ?

[@ariesvictorygroup1743]

I cant stop looking at that guitar ! Wow so beautiful. And the lessons are killer too. Thanks

[@samp3549]

Shit that guitar looks and sounds amazing!

[@michaelenochs5024]

Sam :P Cough cough, *AxeFx*

[@chilipepers2134]

The easiest solo I learned in less than an hour was the "Adrian" solo from Stranger In a Strange Land. It still sounds great

[@tobiasalex1158]

Great solo!

[@RockWeller]

Hey! Awesome video! We are a rock band from Singapore, and find this video useful in writing more original music!

[@Sensei.shonuff]

Bruh ...guitar players are the best They just go out of they way to help eachother

[@kevinrollman3101]

The Title to your video should really be: Advanced guitarist playing licks that are easy for “HIM” to play!! Now your video title fits your video!!

[@00xanawolf00]

Awesome, awesome, awesome! I only wish that you broke down that first intro lick!

[@zeyy84]

Thank you for showing us the licks first so we know which lick to learn

[@JesseLeeKing]

Dude i love that guitar I’ve never seen the fret dots light up like that before

[@RawJamTracks]

Cool lesson, especially the first lick sounds really great! And the guitar looks awesome btw...😍

[@SteamTrainTy]

Oh I thought these were riffs by bands. These are your own. IMPRESSIVE!!!!

[@davidcardona2772]

Wow i love your play and humble way to conduct your channel and your funny manners to open it..keep rockin my friend in music..im a guitar player too. Keep the good work flowing and up!

[@PuttinOnTheRiffs]

This has been a fun thing for me to jump into first thing in the morning for some new ideas. Love the pace of this vid for my skill level. Or lack there of. More like this man!!! Really loving it.

[@mariotojo]

Great content!!! Thank you very much!!! If not asking too much, is it possible for you show how to do the very first lick of the video, or more licks on that style! Cheers and thank you

[@roberthancock2563]

That's an awesome lesson! Thanks!!

[@shaynebergwever6268]

Heard 3secs, liked immediately.

[@guitardaily2231]

Besides the guitar being amazing that Hey Arnold shirt just takes me back to the simple days of being a kid

[@andresaguirre4076]

1:30 cliff of dover? Is that you around here?

[@michalebron5083]

Omg i was just learning that song rn

[@christianaquino5230]

The first two riffs sounds like they're from cliffs of dover

[@ryanmichaelriffs]

I gotta say...out of all the years of searching for good, well explained guitar videos, you take the cake. Thank you. I'm both enjoying and bettering my skills through your videos.

[@bluetopguitar1104]

Nice job. Understandable and you can break it down. This will take a while to digest. Thanks for making it a little easier.

[@TheResidentSkeptic]

Does that guitar have LEDs in the fretboard? That's bad ass. I want one with tri-colour addressable LEDs ;D

[@keirhe9593]

Didn't know Joe dirt could shred?

[@AngelCintiaRockgirl]

I started out thinking it looked hard but by now I know many things do, and I caught on after repetitive exercises and now the only thing I need is to speed up about 10 times more and this will sound good. Thank you so much!! I need to push myself instead of strumming things I already know over and over.

[@Bawraw]

Like it.. the ending music is also beautiful

[@redcartiers]

Are those fret markers Glowing??

[@PizNeyWorks]

Yes

[@dcburnsred658]

They're called Inlays bruh

[@beefcake4089]

No but you are 😉

[@SonOfJ]

@@beefcake4089 smooth. Still not convinced they aren't glowing tho

[@omomapeecee8864]

the second lick reminds me joe satriani ten words

[@bendobbing9239]

Exactly what I thought aha

[@pauljordan4452]

​@@bendobbing9239It is.

[@seanlindholm8472]

he was playing part of the am i evil solo at 5.08

[@nine01n]

hey dude, nice video, thanks for the licks; i like your open ended teaching approach. (i.e. "i use my pinky but you can use your ring..or w.e.") i try to adopt a similar approach in teaching..one of the best players ive met holds his pick with 3 fingers, so are we to say the best way to play! keep rockin

[@justayoutubecommentator3059]

Can someone help? My hands are too small to play the first lick.

[@ThotSticks]

just a youtube commentator same bro I don’t know what to do, plus my slow fingers

[@joaoguilherme3160]

Put your thumb down and your hands cannot touch the back of the guitar arm

[@wk6291]

Move your arm untill you can make it, keep practising that, u will notice that u gain muscle memory, try a different sit technique and keep going untill u get it, u can do it!

[@AuroraLuxi]

I'll just use my tongue to lick the guitar.

[@Po1itica11yNcorrect]

When you do, please post the video here on KZbin. :D

[@chrisking6695]

As long as it sounds good.

[@bigdaddygranpa5578]

Thanks man .I enjoyed licks 1 and 4 the most. Great to add them under my fingers...

[@matthewdelap5404]

Thanks again for helping us expand our riffology. I always get good take- aways I can realistically apply to my own playing ! Peace !

[@Ratchman_5000]

"Easy licks that sound advanced" Dude catches fretboard on fire 🔥

[@yeetyeet823]

Don’t try to do the first one on an acoustic you’ll die 😩

[@71tbomb]

Thanx Rob. I've been trying to teach other people that it's not that hard.Thanx because You make it look easier than I can.

[@yourfave7566]

Cant wait to play this for my guitar teacher! He’ll be blown away! :)

[@gtr362012]

For someone who “cant “ there sure was a great moment where it sounded perfect like u were gonna take off and play cliffs of dover anyway thanks for the lesson

[@GreenToMe2000]

I’ve been playing for 7 years and I can’t do any of this

[@steveboxing]

This lick videos are top top top, keep them coming.

[@krackrockkiller]

One I thought sounded complicated was say what you will by fastway and when I played it I was really surprised on how easy it was

This is great. I love watching students light up when you teach them things like this.

[@ZackSeifMusic]

Great video Robert! Going to implement that second lick in the appropriate key for some improv solos on tour!

[@remyparkour8810]

These licks aren’t hard.......... unless you do them at the speed of light like my mans

[@davidsmithers3277]

It is very hard to poop when you hold a cuitar

[@waynecampbell9714]

You need to slow it down a little K we're not as good as you brother we need to see your fingers more and less blurry movements LOL you're too fast so can you please slow it down so we can see what you're doing

[@gaucho_amigo]

Wayne Campbell you need to slow your sentences down and use some punctuation my dude

[@jimmygubbins]

_carl even though you don’t use a full stop. Lol

[@SonOfJ]

@No you this has nothing to do with fps. He is saying it's too fast for him to follow. More fps won't make it play slower.

[@SonOfJ]

@No you this doesn't make any sense. If it's too fast to see it's also too fast to follow.

[@nolanthomas6165]

Lick #4 sounds like something Avenged Sevenfold would do

[@akaKrypt]

Patriots Fan in pretty sure they did because that's what I thought also, maybe somewhere in the stage?

[@nickpalmer5826]

[@2424rocket]

You’re usually a great teacher… once in a while, you get carried away… This stuff is so easy for you. It is hard for you to imagine how hard it is for us. Yes, I would love to learn cliffs of Dover. But you would have to teach it really really really slow. And I know you have a very hard time going slow. 😂
