Hey Bernth can you make a video about switching thumb position of the fretting hand. Thanks 🤟🎸
@caseyorr24473 жыл бұрын
Yes please. I have been wondering this also. does your thumb move to follow your middle finger with every subtle shift it makes between strings,? or does it sit generally behind it as you perform a pattern and only move as the position moves. I find a light touch back there is helpful as I move up the neck or my thumb begins to drag along behind my movement as I head toward the pickups.. leaving it with the tip pointing at the nut after a few frets. Do i create pressure with my thumb alone or is there an element of using the arm, shoulder, or center, so the pressure on the fretboard is a function of my whole torso? is your thumb always a perfect 90 degrees to the neck? this could def be a short video.. I know I should be on Patreon and vote. very soon I will. But couldn't resist a comment anyways. Perhaps some other folks can help as well. This community is priceless to me. THANK YOU EVERYONE

@JMetalGuitarist3 жыл бұрын
Bernth, do you have any suggestions for playing over more chromatic sounding riffs? I’m trying to figure out how to make my leads sound more demented like cannibal corpse. I normally try to find some way to make diminished or double harmonic minor work but is there a more practical approach to this? Should I just add some chromatic patterns as walk downs to transition in between a couple notes in the scales I’m already using?
@JMetalGuitarist3 жыл бұрын
I know slayer adds some kind of chromaticism to locrian to get that real evil sound. But I’ve never been able to crack the code on exactly what their method is. Maybe they change up their chromatic note placement a bit every time... that would make it harder to emulate.

I was in the 70 percentile group that's been watching your tutorials without subscribing. I suppose it was because I'm a rock/blues player and not a metal Shredder. However, I keep coming back because your lessons are engaging and useful to me. Plus, you seem like a really good dude. I'm taking this lesson for example and am transferring the picking patterns to the mixolydian, Dorian modes from the typical pentatonic runs to make my solos more interesting. I will "never" be this blazing fast but strive to be more accurate, clean and concise in my alternate picking to fretboard hand synchronization. Lessons such as this one helps! Finally subscribed! Thanks!
