Intervallic Fifths Lick

Here is a quick lick I've been practicing myself lately that I made a lesson on this week for Shred Light District on Patreon, it uses hybrid picking (picking and plucking) to play some wide intervals up or down a scale (in this case fifths, and the occasional sixth).

Thanks!

The technique this man has! The hybrid picking is not often seen from metal players, only pick! Truly a beast.

[@robertjmessenger]

I need this man in Megadeth

[@ali965]

It would be very cool to have him play with Mustaine. Even if it’s a show or two

[@ShredForth]

His creativity and skill set are wasted in a band like that. Megadeth is a Mustaine solo project. It’s like when Jeff Loomis was in Arch Enemy….. I’m sure they(‘d) get paid well to do that, but what a waste it would be.

[@fanglies6095]

blasphemy

[@notasilicaanimus]

Think of the solos though.

[@jasoncarrillo7915]

Why? Megadeth hasn’t been Megadeth for 30 years. This dude is top tier right now. His talent would be wasted playing under/behind Dave.

Bruh thats fuckin rad. I just picked up a sweet esp ltd jh600 with the pearl hanamin dagger inlays. I broke my wrist (scaphoid) riding my one wheel a year ago all stupid like. Really fuxked me shit up mate. But anyways ive heen playing guitar for 30 years and im just now gettinbback into the swimg of it. And brother everything you do inspires me.

What a Tone Big Brother!! Brandon God Bless You And Thank You For Being The Coolest!! @BrandonEllis

[@anthonytenkku43]

Am I the only one absolutely creaming my jeans over the fact that the new BDM record will feature Brian Eschbach, the man responsible for writing the vast majority of BDM's entire discography, Ryan Knight, the man who took BDM up one million notches in terms of their technical accumen and establishing them as a guitar players band and Brandon Ellis, one of the best guitarists alive right now all collaborating to create what is hopefully one of the dopest records ever released? P.S. I know Brian has moved to vocals but I find iit highly unlikely that he wouldn't play a hand in the writing of the actual music. At least I hope I'm right.

[@thecrypticstench]

He’s definitely got a hand in the riffs, this is like the more extreme version of Maiden, I’m fuckin stoked to hear these fellas tear it up 🤘🏻

[@mef_777]

you are amazing guitarist!

[@khaiuschill310]

Epic playing keep it coming

[@RedFlyRuledByTheRiff]

Sounds good! How often do you play a guitar that doesn’t have a locking bridge and neck?

[@Shreddin_4_Life]

Sounds good as always man!!

[@AlexRG8]

Laser sharp precious, blazing vibrato from the equilibrist of magnitude.

[@raulcayon]

muy pro como siempre!

[@BOER1717]

Rocking the les paul shapes these days I see! Amazing as always dude

[@ali965]

I am not worthy

[@user-ee7zd9mg6v]

I really hope they have dual solos on the New album

[@Rippinlips513]

Gonna be the album of the year hands down

[@thecrypticstench]

@@Rippinlips513I hope they go back to the Ritual era sound, Carbonized remains my favourite BDM song I’ve ever heard

[@Rippinlips513]

@@thecrypticstench that is my favorite album by them. Went through a lot in my life when that album came out and it was listened to every day on repeat.

[@thecrypticstench]

@@Rippinlips513 same brotha, so many fantastic tracks on that album I’d love to hear live like Conspiring with the Damned and Great Burning Nullifier, new album’s gonna be sooo good

[@user-ee7zd9mg6v]

@@Rippinlips513 TRUE SHIT ON THAT. THING ABOUT TBDM IS THEY ARE REALLY OUTSTANDING MUSICIANS AND ARE SO MELODIC WITHOUT EVER LOSING THE EXTREMENESS. BANDS GET SO OVER THE TOP BRUTAL ( WHICH IS FUCKING AWESOME) BUT TBDM STANDS OUT IMO TO ALOT OF THEM AND THEY ARE AN INSPIRATION TO SO MANY BANDS . AND TREVOR R.I.P ONE OF A KIND. VLAD, THE DRAGON IS INSANE VOCAL DELIVERY.. I NEVER SAW THEM LIVE BUT IF I DO I WILL DO VOCALS LOUD AS FUCK FOR FUNERAL THIRST AND CONTAGION. I REMEMBER WHEN CONTAGION CAME OUT AND WAS FLOORED . AND THE INTRO TO UNHALLOWED FOLLOWED BY FUNERAL THIRST IS BEST INTROS OF ALL TIME . THE ENDING TO RITUAL IS HEARTBREAKING BC OF WHAT TREVOR SAYS AS HIS LAST LYRICS. DUDE WAS A MAD LYRICIST. GLAD THAT CARNIFEX AND MACHINE HEAD PAID HOMAGE TO HIM IN CROWNED IN EVERBLACK ( I HAD A VERY BAD SMITH FRACTURE AND WENT THROUGH SAME SHIT MUSTAINE WENT THROUGH WITH NERVE DAMAGE) HOMELESS IN A TOWN I DIDN'T GROW UP THAT ALBUM HELPED ME THROUGH THAT SHIT AND UNHALLOWED TOO BY MFNH ..I MISS THE FUCK OUT TREVOR " IM SCOOBY DOO" STRNAD THE DVDS ARE GEMS . PLAY THE FUCK OUT THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER. 🤘🤘 GOT A CAT NAMED TREVOR BORN RIGHT AFTER HIS DEATH..I FIGHT THAT SHIT TOO A LOT LAST YEAR AND ITS PPL LIKE HIM AND ALL THE OTHERS THAT WENT THROUGH WITH IT THAT I JUST CAN'T. BC IT'S NOT WORTH IT IN THE LONG RUN .

[@DeadEndzMusic]

Clicked on the video without paying attention really Was like wow "this sounds like Brandon Ellis" Yep.

[@notasilicaanimus]

Nice hybrid picking.

[@ginopanteristabootpim7346]

Best shred on earth

[@everydayperson764]

Nicee!! Les paul shape suits you too.

[@iloveitall]

Cant believe there is no negative comment about the sharktooth inlays on a Les Paul, so here is one.

[@doobielespaul1677]

What amp are you playing to get that tone? Sweet licks my dude !

[@BrandonEllisGtr]

This is a b52 atx100 i just bought for $100 dollars to have some fun with. It sounds great. Im using the amps reverb too. Dirty tree in front

[@bongwatersupreme6353]

Have you tried flipping between intervals? If you start with the normal c major arpeggios on the A string starting on c then play the fifth then e followed by the 4th and repeat

[@Ibanezguy2007]

where the hell did you find this guitar!

[@naufalalfiansyah5112]

Sir ellis play catacomb hecatomb playthrough please

[@BrandonEllisGtr]

I have the solo up here, but not the whole song

[@PearHellforge]
