METAL GUITAR Quickstart Guide - How To Play Metal Chords

[@serbianchefcooking]

Just wanted to give you a huge thanks! This lesson was a revelation for me! There are so much junk guitar lessons on YT, that jewels like this simply get lost among them. Keep up the good work!

[@BassGuyRy]

That 5 to flat 5 went straight into Dream Theater territory... Awesome!

[@ZeroFretGuitar]

this lesson has opened a new side of guitar for me! I would love to see another video with more tricks and tips like this!

[@D.Miller]

If I had a lotto win, I'd try to hire Mr Chapman- the busiest man in the business- to have a 6 month intensive 'Bill and Ted' style course and I still wouldn't be able to tie your shoes. Thanks for these videos, such a relaxed teaching style

[@pedersenist]

Was all that in standard tuning. Good to see you make a tutorial video again.

[@chupiconverge6034]

Excellent 💪🔥

[@bozeeke]

Good lesson for beginners. Different chord voicings than only the typical 5th power chords and the Richie Blackmore moveable 4th dyad which are the typical hard rock/metal chords beginners learn first.

[@chadwickpainter8212]

A guitar tutorial using a scale to make something cool. Brilliant! I actually learned something about music theory, thanks to your video here. Cheers!

[@AnimalJohn85]

All the good stuff right there! That geetar is well nice too, love the headstock design. Good stuff sir, cheers for the tips n tricks

[@audiomonster303]

And thanks for the fret markers!

Land o' lakes,wi...usa...Here !......plain & simple...tnx, Mr Chapman.pat

[@ggilreath02161964]

Soooper - thanks for the tip! You definitely have made my day brother!

[@sandlmv8301]

Im not a metal player but i think this lesson is excellent regardless. Thanks Rob.

[@shineliner3190]

Wow incredibly useful cheers Rob!

[@rainluna9765]

Thanks for posting this helpful video. I really want to play guitar as good as that. ❤

[@MrJellyBOMB]

Really appreciate the educational content. You rock.

[@2002ChrisK]

Hi Rob. I've been playing for a few years, but I really enjoyed this lesson. Got me thinking and trying a few different things as a good lesson should! Thanks 😀

[@StrudlePie]

These should be on a Cheat Sheet that comes with every Chapman Guitar tbh! The Building Blocks of Awesomness!!

[@StormdriverOne]

Where was this lesson 30 years ago? I have since figured all of this out but man, this made it so easy. I feel like if someone showed me this when I first started learning, I might have experimented a bit more over the years.

[@yodaTVmedia]

Wow this is a great video

[@badalicemusic]

Thanks Rob, this is such a helpful and inspiring lesson. Any chance you could make a video looking at how to get into some of the throughly badass percussive rhythm patterns so often found in metal aka involving muting and deadening of strings interspersed with hitting staccato bursts of the chord? That, coupled with this video, would really help open up how the chords you've just demonstrated can be applied in (gnarly metulz) practice. Wishing you well regardless!😎👊

[@MrPaul8870]

I get your point I thought I watch and see what you are up to. 1 A 152 is a 9th chord One thing I seem to realise is the upstroke power chord Do a 15 on down stroke and 8 5 on upstroke which is a good pattern to use as rythmic pattern in a 50 60 classic style that always seems to appear today lol

[@dreammachine86]

That was a really useful lesson. Wasn't sure what to expect going in, whether it was just going to be about powerchords but I ended up learning a whole lot more. It was great to hear how all those different intervals sounded together and then it all became clear why you started with the major scale. I like to do a similar thing myself, having a lower string ringing out over a 2 or 3 note chord so this has really given me a few more ideas. I believe Rabea also likes to do this for progressive metal, getting a drone from lower note and then layering a chord into it. The tone was lovely too, would be interesting to know what you used for that (plugins/digital amp or a pedals through a proper amp...).

[@charlesfellows8130]

Brilliant!

[@SauliSlays]

Thx for this vid bro!

[@daviddr2d2]

Thank you for sharing.

[@audiomonster303]

We are all FRIENDS!!! thanks :)

[@glenhuman3681]

Awesome!

[@gregzen7896]

fantastic. ty

[@BlazertronGames]

Should've covered the minor third interval, too. Came across that when learning blackened by metallica.

[@danielsaturnino5715]

Sweet tone, great guitar, great tips. No pick throw?

[@peteralbertthomas]

Thank You

[@thenovicenoisemaker]

Perfect!!

[@fireboyisme]

Thank you!!

[@erezsimon6949]

great one

[@byMaliboo]

What about dorje?

[@owenbruce4120]

Good interval lesson, doesn't make it metal though, I'd play this on acoustic ✌

[@Skunkwerx]

I heard a Smashing Pumpkins vibe in there :)

[@spedmington]

Hey Rob. I might have missed something, but I just wanted to ask about what happened to Dorje? I really miss the music, and Crooked, the old demo you had in a previous video sounded really good!

[@heavybrett-al4082]

I emerged from the womb humming black sabbath...so I had an evil advantage with power chords learning.... unfortunately it's bright happy chords I struggle with.😂😢

[@michigangreen1915]

Why don’t you go back to Andertons and start doing Chappers and the captain again? Sure it would be on the Andertons channel but I think a lot of people would watch it and probably give you a fresh start again. I miss the good old days with Rob, Lee, Rabea, Pete etc doing videos every month.

[@ashwitmoro]

SikTh fret? 🤘🏼

[@adamsan7494]

Hello Rob quick question please? Which Valve amp gives the best 80's 90's rock and metal sounds of those decades? I'm guessing maybe Marshall JCM 800 or 900? Either way cheers for the brilliant videos and laughs.

[@lysdexiar31]

800, add a tubescreamer for more sauce

[@michaelmitchell5909]

Dont over complicate it to much Rob, i know your a beast on guitar man, but the new metallica 72 seasons riff does good things man....lol. as well as the inamorata opening riff....

[@RobChappers]

Serious question - You think this is complicated dude? I want to make sure my lessons reach a wider audience so it’s important for me to know

[@PaulCooksStuff]

I'd say it's not what textbooks are teaching, or at least my textbooks ("here's a bunch of chords and variations, learn them... Now play this tab"). You went back to first principles and explained how those chords are constructed from scale notes. I don't think it was complicated (unless you have no theory background at all), I think it was enlightening and even liberating - it was a different way of looking at it that I haven't read or thought of before. But then I like to know the "why", so I can apply the principles elsewhere too. Learn the concept, apply it anywhere. Others might have different learning styles and care about the end result more than the construction. It was a lot of variants to think about all at once, but you wouldn't use all of them in one song anyway. It's a reference vid, then apply a couple of variations at leisure.

[@michaelmitchell5909]

@Rob Chapman ....thanks for responding back man I really appreciate it. I didn't think it was over complicated Rob, even tho that's what I said, I just wanted to mention metallica cause I know your a huge fan and jamming power chords never gets old....I'm a huge metallica fan as well and love playing their music. I don't get to crazy with over produced sound or guitar playing, I just love jamming with a good setup guitar and a killer amp such as the katana......cheers from Mitch,.....canonsburg, Pennsylvania, USA

[@michaelmitchell5909]

@Rob Chapman love your channel man and have been a fan of yours since the early money lord days with captain anderton!....

[@TheRantingsofaMadman]

Too little focus on the power chord for how often it is used lol. Simple stuff though.

[@tajamsofficials9038]

I didn't understand plzzz.. Let me know...

[@electronicsscholar7955]

I don't know... But Audio of this video is a little more panned towards left... felt unbalanced and uncomfortable... I've watched other videos on this channel... they are fine...

[@dirty_bubble_squad4749]

Voomers rise up

[@Timmy70]

Wow! 😵 Too much reverb and or delay.. I don't want to hate, but sounded bad to me! Just my opinion!

[@sleevelessace]

dude u lost me as soon as u said pinky on ___ fret
