Thanks for the Suggestions. Very effective with the placement of all the fingers on the string

[@markdaniels4878]

These are very effective tools for improving tremelo technique. Thanks so much for this video, Jack ! Enjoyed your scale series on GSI as well .

[@moroccaninsider.DarSsiba]

Why you stopped publishing video Sir?

[@jacksanders3210]

I would be happy to, I just need to find the time to do so. These take a surprisingly large amount of time to create!

[@jazzguitarneophyte-christo7988]

Hi Jack, why did you stop uploading videos?

[@jacksanders3210]

Thanks for asking! I have a number of ideas for new videos, but there always seems to be other things that need to be done. They take more effort to make than you might think...

[@horatioredgreenblue2130]

​@@jacksanders3210Hi Jack - thanks so much for what you have already done. I have spent decades learning the guitar and like many (most?) have fallen foul of the "tense guitarists don't last long" maxim and with frustration in physical ability & musical expression. Your videos are very quickly sorting my technique and tension/posture out so I can finally progress.

[@ElifKocabeyoglu]

Thanks for sharing your experience :)

[@frankg3rd1]

My left hand is dominant which results in a low volume attack for my right hand. Any suggestions on volume would be greatly appreciated. Great video...thank you !

[@jacksanders3210]

Hi, in my experience as both a performer and teacher, I've found that low volume is most often a case of tension (co-contraction of opposing muscles) which tends to restrict follow-thru with AMI. Be sure that your shoulder (deltoid) muscles and biceps are relaxed. Stretch out your right hand and hold it for about 10 seconds, then release it. While your hand is loose, play a slow tremolo on open strings that are close by, such as the thumb on the 3rd string and the fingers on the first string. Let the weight of each finger provide the power, and while playing slowly, follow through with each finger all the way to your palm. Do one PAMI group (one unit), then pause and relax. Experiment with doing one unit, relax, then two units, relax, and so on. In reality, playing a tremolo piece doesn't allow the player to follow through to this degree, but if you can maximize your sound in this way you will have the ability to play any volume you desire. Relaxed players use the weight of their fingers to provide power without straining - be creative with your practicing and see if you can make discoveries in this area.

[@frankg3rd1]

Jack Sanders Thank you Mr.Sanders. Your videos are very enlightning ! I will take your thoughtful advice and hope that I achieve results immediately. Ive struggled with this flaw in my playing for quite some time without remedy. I so appreciate this new direction I am about to embark. Thank you !

[@chiphanthe3792]

Anyone know that Jack read this comments? Because I have question but I don't want talk with ...void.

[@mvitti21]

Thanks this is very helpful. Off topic: The painting in the background catches my attention. Who is it by?

[@pomysowydobromir903]

can you give tab for this

[@blitz7423]

I saw you at a concert

[@DannyGRomero]

Hi Jack, I have a question about the last exercise you suggest in this video, you play the PIMA or PAMI and there are couples of notes muted but I can't realise how you do it. I know that with the index finger you mute the first string but I don't know how you do that. I really appreciate your help. thanks in advance

[@jacksanders3210]

+Danny Romero - The idea is to put all three fingers, AMI or IMA on the string at the same time. Keep your fingers on the string until you play that particular finger. The first two finger notes will be muted by the other fingers that are resting on the string. Only the last finger will sound normally. This is good for several reasons...first, you eliminate excessive movement in your fingers; you teach your fingers how to set up properly over the string; finally, it is an exercise that you can only do well if your arm is relaxed, so it helps make you aware of tension issues. Hope this answers your question.

[@DannyGRomero]

+Jack Sanders Thank you so much!, I understood perfectly. I really appreciate what you do here!. thanks a million!.

[@lawcch]

how about using 4 right hand fingers including the chico finger? In flamenco music , tremolo works for RH fingering p a,m,i, i but maybe we can try using p, ch, a, m, i....? however since the chico finger is the shortest of all finger, what is the ideal position to do this tremolo pattern?
