[@gabren6141]

Bernth's progression from 2003 to 2005 seems like what an average guitarist would progress within 5 years. That's impressive.

[@arcadeslum5882]

He likely put 5 hours of practice in 2 years time........ compared to the average person. His whole point of the video is follow your passion and block out the haters.

[@dirkmoolman]

Yup ! 😮

[@Penguinn_0.o_]

It's been around 10 years, and I'm still dumb at playing.

[@gabren6141]

@Nicholas You need to practice and believe that one day you'll get results. It may be that because I'm a younger guitarist, I'm able to get some progress and results within 1 or 2 weeks of practice. Good luck though.

[@gabren6141]

@Nicholas I should also say that leads are not "harder" than rhythm. Usually guitarists start out by playing the basic riffs and rhythms, and only later try playing solos and leads. Some people think that it's harder simply because they don't put as much time practicing and playing solos compared to riffs.

[@ivandelgado5841]

Picking up the guitar at 23 years old wish I would have picked it up a lot younger but this is very motivational, my love for music is such a drive wish me luck everyone!

[@GeorginoEstevez]

Same with me bros! I started learning guitar at 25 and I don't have that experience; jamming with friends at their houses when I was a teenager like most kids no I don't experienced that. And btw I bought an electric guitar like 5-6 months ago, I'm still suck really but however I keep myself on the track just play/learn slowly because we'll get there eventually :) Good luck metal Bros 🤘🏻🔥

keep going! around 1 year and 6 months you will be able to play rhythm guitar to any metal song trust me!

Dude! You and me both. I want to shred so bad!!!! Started taking lessons about 5 months ago. I’m an old man as well….37 lol

[@bjornjagt3073]

I am 44 and starting now, got a lot to learn i see!😳. Bud he became good fast. Talented

[@Pupselot]

deftgoose, I'm also just starting out. Actually, I have my first lesson in a few days. I'm 52 now. I got my guitar in 1990 when I was young, but circumstances made it impossible for me to get very far at the time. I always planned to come back to it, and now, 30 years later, I'm about to do just that. When the video talked about letting other people dragging you down, and never giving up on your dreams, that really cheered me up. Maybe I'm running a fool's errand here, but if I could just learn to play well enough to find some friends that I can get together with and play a little metal music, I'd be so happy about that. I've been a music listener all my life--and as heavy metal fan since I was a teen in the 80s, but I've always been a listener. I just want to try to make a little music of my own, y'know?

[@FranklyNorman]

I’m not even into metal, but this is such a great story. Really awesome work, man. Congrats on an awesome life

[@keyboardwarria]

It's worse when your parents don't

[@TheAbandonedAccount7]

I mean, you're a 13 yr old kid with a multi-hundred dollar guitar and prob amp too. Someone must've believed in you enough. Kids go through phases, it's not completely out of the realm of possibility that this guy's parents thought that's what it'd be. The percentage of kids who practice instruments at a young age then give up pre/during adulthood is a majority. Not many of them are joining touring bands at age 19.

[@mcdoucheybag]

@@TheAbandonedAccount7 You are just assuming that though. It's a probability, but not necessarily true. We don't know his story.

[@ZenGarage]

I turned 47 this year and have been playing the guitar since high school. I always wanted to be a shredder like you, but over time I've slowed down, and you know what? It's not a bad thing! Where I once dreamed of learning the Megadeth solos in Holy Wars I now dream of playing like Chris Buck. So much feeling, so much more emotion than just anger. 100% it's each to their own but massive props, congratulations (the KZbin algorithm brought me here!) and really happy that you're happy and proud of yourself, full stop!

[@ct1216]

don't worry man nobody plays and enjoys neo-classical metal anymore. I used to shred crazy when I was 20-21. Now I am 42 and I enjoy blues more. And my opinion Albert King was the greatest guitar player who ever lived.

[@KennelGuyTries]

I'm in the same boat. Turned 46 last October. I'm not a shredder. I can throw a solo out if absolutely necessary, but I prefer rhythm. I have noticed my dexterity has diminished. Malcom young to someone else's Angus if you will. I find myself using hammer-ons and pull-offs a lot more than I used to to compensate. I play within my limitations and have fun with it.

[@KennelGuyTries]

@@ct1216 I love metal. When I sit down to play it's mainly blues now. My all time favorite player is Chet Atkins. He made playing look so effortless. Like anyone could pick up a guitar and play like him. The greats always do though.

[@deadmoon910]

Well done Bernth, you are the cleanest and best technique shredder that I am aware of, super impressive to watch. I hope your skills bring you great fortune and fulfillment, you seem like a very good dude who is deserving of a good life. Peace!!!

[@DrDanielFox]

This is terrific. I get down on myself about my playing sometimes. This really helped. Thanks B

[@chrisbauman2562]

Now this is playing with feel in a more heavier metal sound. When people say metal has no feel they're right. Majority of KZbinrs in the metal world lack what this guy has. He's sporadic and spontaneous. 90% of the time you don't even know what he's doing but it's not over done. It's perfect for the song. Exactly what a musician should be

[@acousticide]

Amazing journey. I started out just like you. Had opportunities to get very successful... but unlike you, I never found the dedication and drive to realize my potential. So cool that you have it chronicled like this. I hope this motivates someone to give it their all, because everyone has greatness inside.... but only a few will realize it.

[@TakiAngh]

Such a motivational video.... Love it❣️

[@northstarz1125]

Man ur face when ur playing ur borrowed guitar really hit me hard. The happiness and joy that it brought you is contagious brother. I still have those moments when I finally get a super hard riff down or get in the zone when just messing around. Tbh though, I had not played seriously for many years and one day I saw one of your guitar exercise videos and it re-ignited that passion for me. I use ur exercises daily and try to keep up with all u put out on KZbin. Thank you!

[@santhoshsubbiah1803]

Thankyou so much bernth this really motivated me to pick my guitar back up!!

[@nicksites]

Love this video! I'm 35 and established in my career, but I've never really lost the dream of playing in front of a lot of people. I'm still pushing myself to be a better guitar player and overall musician every day.

[@farahs8341]

The jump from 2003 to 2005 is INSANE! What exactly did you change about your practice routine in 05 when you started to take it more seriously? That alone was impressive! Very cool video, also shows that people don't "blow up" from one day to the next, it's hard work for many years until you are finally good enough that recognition starts to pile up.

[@fancwings6134]

Just get in there no limits mind set and enjoy the journey it's a long one.

[@SealedKiller]

Just play and learn new stuff. If you keep learning harder stuff you will get better. Like said get in the mind set and just keep pushing. From what I've seen people get stuck looking for techniques to practice and practice routines. To be honest I never really cared about that I just played stuff I liked and wanted to learn. I'm also interested in theory and read about it, I'm also teaching myself to write standard notation because why not I wanna know it. So far I can tell you for me writing the notes is not hard but reading the notes is harder. I'm no professional by any means but I won't get lost on the guitar.

[@jmorrisey79]

I'm curious what he changed in his routine as well. That's a very drastic and impressive leap in skills in a very short period of time.

[@jmorrisey79]

@@fancwings6134 I'm sure he put massive amounts of time and effort but there's got to be more to it than than bro. The majority of people I've known that play guitar took many more years to reach that point than what we see in this video of Bernth's progress. I for one didn't have the benefit of having better guitar players around me to show me stuff. It definitely helps to have a mentor.. and can slow you down greatly if you have to figure everything out for yourself. A good practice regimen is key.. but you can't just do the same things forever.. especially without getting bored. Sure, we have the internet and KZbin today but that wasn't the case when I was in my teens or even my early 20s.. and when you get older you don't have nearly as much free time as you did when you were younger. I think the person asking this question is trying to outline a plan or improve upon an existing one after seeing Bernth's impressive leap forward in such a short period. Responding by saying to dive in with no limits isn't really saying much. It's safe to say we all know that practice is first and foremost.. and lots of it.

[@harryrainbird]

Thanks for remaining a great human being!

[@mattstraubel9927]

Hey Bernth, I was a decent guitarist in my teens and early 20s but strayed away from music. During the pandemic I rediscovered my love for guitar and threw myself into it. recently I have been struggling to find the time to practice due to work and it's been making me question my dreams of truly mastering the instrument having just turned 33 a few weeks ago, but this video really resonated with me and I just wanna say thank you for that.

[@sadinoelj]

I've been playing the guitar for a long time, but now at 42 I want to take it seriously, I discovered your channel not long ago but I haven't followed up on the exercises. I think I have wasted a lot of my life making these decisions because I live in a country where rock and metal don't matter and I also think I suffer from depression. But seeing how Jason Becker continues to fight and this video of yours, I have now decided to take this seriously. many thanks!

I'm about as far as you can get from a metal shredder, but man this is a great video and very inspirational. I'm glad your hard work is paying off for you.

[@vesanius1]

The beginning of this video shows that everyone has to start somewhere and even the best players of their instruments have sounded terrible at some point. It's a progress that you go through with dedication and hard work and as the video progress you can see how much it eventually pays off. This kind of videos should be shown to all new players so they can see the progress and then imagine it in their head for themselves. It can be very inspirational.

First day I ever played was on my birthday and the old lady neighbor came over and asked if can stop playing all together. My dad said no, and she and her husband ended up moving. As I got older I told people no, and I play regardless what people think as long as I don’t break any noise violations. I guess what I’m trying to say is don’t think to much about what people think just keep playing and do you cause a lot of people who don’t play an instrument think music is made in a small dark quiet closet.

Congratulations on your success. It seems as though the majority of professional guitarists focus on sharing their wins but never their failures along the journey that got them to where they are today. I’m new to this community but have already seen several videos where you proudly share the mistakes you made…even while already regarded as a great musician who plays sold out stadiums. It’s hard to describe just how inspiring that is and all I can say is thank you for putting yourself out there and showing us that despite being seen as a god on the guitar, you’re human just like the rest of us. Your dedication to showing everyone that the formula for success is truly as simple as a borderline obsessive commitment to your craft and hard work is a breath of fresh air and welcomed distraction to the crazy world we all share.

RIGHT ON BROTHER !!! 🤘 I STARTED PLAYING GUITAR AT AGE 13 & I DONT THINK ANYONE AROUND ME THOUGHT THAT I WOULD TAKE IT SERIOUSLY OR EVEN STICK WITH IT. I'VE BEEN PLAYING NOW FOR AROUND 30 YEARS. I HAVE BEEN IN MANY BANDS & HAVE TOURED & RECORDED ORIGINAL MATERIAL. BEING A GUITARIST IS ABOUT THE ONLY THING THAT I HAVE BEEN TOTALLY COMMITTED TO. PEOPLE THAT AREN'T MUSICIAN'S REALLY DONT REALIZE THE ENDLESS AMOUNT OF PERSONAL TIME WE INVEST IN OUR PASSION. I BELIEVE THEY THINK WE JUST KIND OF TINKER AROUND WITH IT LIKE A LITTLE HOBBY OR SOMETHING. IF SOMEONE REALLY WANTS TO ACHIEVE A LEVEL OF PROFESIONALISM WITH THE GUITAR IT TAKES TIME, HEART & SOUL PLUS TOTAL DEDICATION. SO I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU ABOUT NOT LISTENING TO OTHERS WHEN THEY CRITICIZE. ESPECIALLY IF THAT PERSON IS CRITISIZING YOU & THEY DONT EVEN PLAY AN INSTRUMENT. DONT BUY INTO THAT BULLSHIT. 🤘🤘🤘🤘

This is the most beautiful thing I have read all week. Thank you for staying humble. It is a rare thing these days, sadly 😢

What an incredible story! That’s so amazing you are hitting your goals and beyond! You clearly found your calling. Watching you is inspiring. I started playing guitar at around 9 years old but didn’t pursue it consistently. I hit a point where I could comfortably play most songs and keep up at a few live things but didn’t push myself further. Years later I’m back at it and learning new stringed instruments as well. Music is an amazing thing and I hope you continue to achieve your dreams! 🎸

Yep, great video, Steve Vai once said, work on your strength, not your weakness!!! Prince said dont let people tell you how to play your guitar!! Indeed! Thanks for the great videos Bernth!

What a great story, I picked up the guitar at the tender age of 50, it's two years on now and still a beginner but slowly slowly I improve and thanks to your videos I am learning quicker than before :) thanks Bernth 🤘

Hello Bernth, I am stunned by your guitar play. Now I am 68 and two years ago I played guitar for the first time. I love it. I regret not playing it for such a long time. Now my fingers are stiff and everything is not so quickly anymore. But the most important thing is that I love it Follow you everyday knowing that I won't be able to play so good as you. Thank you for your efforts and keep on playing.

It's great to see the journey and constant growing, so often we tend to judge the musicians we see onstage and we don't really appreciate the huge amounts od practice and dedication behind a live show
