See. Let me work on my chops a bit more this month.... . I really really wanna jam with you boys. For real. We could mess around and put out a solid banger. You two are my favorite hands down. I guess its cause I feel like connected since it seems like you both think and play in the direction i do and help with fresh perspective whether you both know it or not. Grateful for getting on here and finding like minded individuals who not only crush musically and intellectually but work so hard at it. You are appreciated fellas. But for real. Us 3. jam. Please. Ill make a wish this bitch lol 😆

Man, I needed this video!! As a guitarist of over 10 years, my BIGGEST struggle has always been writing. I’ll spend hours at my computer always unhappy with the outcome, and usually get stuck in the “noodling” phase (playing variants of basically the same riff) until I get depressed enough to walk away :( I’m excited to spend some time applying some of your principals this week! Thanks for the awesome content, as always ❤️

this is dope, between this video and your chugs are boring video it really helped my songwriting I been playing guitar for over a decade, just started again seriously last year and I appreciate you making this video because I didn't realize I already do this subconsciously but having you explain it, also having similar riff writing plan solidified it for me mentally and I'm truly grateful.

My fear is always people will think it's just the last thing, so I'm BEYOND relieved you found it helpful Robin! This is a mindset shift that made me way more creative and it happened in part thanks to your Riff Wars challenge so thank you, this video wouldn't exist if it wasn't for you!!! 💕💕💕

João Medeiros oh my man! It means so much ❤️ This is actually pushing me to go forward, having your way to write riffs is so helpful. Like I don’t usually write this kind of riffs, well I didn’t! Time to make things change! You make me a better musician ❤️
