[@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 🤘🏻🔥

[@keyboardwarria]

It's worse when your parents don't

[@TheBrandonn]

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]

@@TheBrandonn 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.

[@jasonsheets2694]

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.

[@jasonsheets2694]

@@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.

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!!!

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.

[@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!

[@JoseJimenez-ob2sf]

I realized the same some days ago I am currently 38 years old and I will take it seriously since now, greetings from Mexico

[@diode86]

Just do it! (lol) Im 35, playing instruments since 6. I started to get serious about it 3 years ago and getting hired now for recording, mixing/mastering and stuff and i want to slap myself for not being serious about it much much sooner while chasing other things and goals in life. Now im finally enjoying life. :D Just do eeet :P

For real, its possible to achieve amazing skills! I had 3 month break in guitar and it feels terrible to play now. But after this video i felt motivated and i'm setting my practice shedule, no matter what.

Currently i am 29 and i am also taking things seriously now. I guess now i dont want to end up saying these when i reached your age. I have also lost so many hours without practicing,thinking i will do tomorrow and tomorrow but now i will again start the journey.

[@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

[@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.

[@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.

[@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!

Hey Bernth. I come over one of your video while ago. I just have to thank you for great content. Its a real pleasure to watch your video. Rare to see someone so connected to the instrument. I really like you sharing your great insight and learning techniques. Ive been playing guitar from I was like 9. at that time it wasent youtube and ect. Just listened and tryed. Could not effort lessions and stuff. Picked up guitar again for like 4 years ago. And thanks you for sharing your stuff. You reach to a level seems impossible for me but i keep learning. And its always great to see you hungry for more. Youre one of the top on my list on youtube. Please keep your content going. Music have so much meaning in my life i can not explain it.

[@spencerharding5328]

That’s awesome you have footage to share with us all. Wish I still had mine when I first started playing drums ! 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.

At almost 38, I’m about to purchase my very first electric guitar after having a realisation I should have kept up my acoustic guitar lessons when I purchased my first acoustic guitar back in 2003. I have very basic drum, acoustic guitar and piano skills and can’t read music but understand guitar tab. I’m very excited for the challenge that awaits me as I’m now wanting to taking my passion for guitar seriously as music plays a huge significance in my life. I’m a Manson and Smashing Pumpkins fan and they have inspired me to finally make this a reality as life is short and I don’t want to waste anymore time. I do also admire metal and my music taste is in fact very versatile. Thanks for boosting the inspiration and sharing your journey.

I am so happy for you that all your dreams as a musician came true!

But to be honest it's really hard someone to recognise you and to help you expecially for me, I'm from very small country and almost nobody listen metal music. Only Ola Englund recognise my hard work and he share my music on his channel i will be forever grateful to him for that! From a very young age i create music and to be honest i have couple author bands where i play drums for them, but for my personal work with solo projects still nothing "big" happened. Because of that i am already exhausted and tired, and it's not only that thing, i also give all my money for gear and equipment. To everybody out there who are locked in their rooms all day practicing and creating music, who spent their time and money for music, i wish you SUCCESS like Bernth!

[@spicypersonburger]

Everyone wants to know what he did to make the huge jump but he says it. He learned to play his favorite solos. I still suck, but I remember people thinking I was decent simply because I practiced playing riffs from my favorite bands back in the day. Get a tab, find a riff at your skill level, practice with the song or a metronome and you'll make a huge jump really fast because you know how you sound, how the riff is suppossd to sound, it puts things in perspective, and you'll see more clearly what you need work on so you attack just that. I wouldn't be suprised if that fast lick was something he worked on a lot until it sounded the way the song it was from sounded. Providing a great benchmark for practice goals.

Man I gave up playing because I never learned how because my parents wouldn't pay for lessons. So instead, I dove straight into ultimate guitar and learning the intro to every popular metallica song. I gave up in 2014.10 years later (30 years old), I bought another guitar and I am starting to teach myself the "right" way. I'm motivated but overwhelmed by all the information; where to start, what to do next.

Is what I can say what it makes me sick that I can't play after all the years I've been trying but being distracted with life held me back and to see you within a year shredding and I couldn't do that. You're an inspiration I absolutely love the way you play it's crazy it's talent it's unreal. Had 56 I'm not sure I'll be able to have time to learn but I love the guitar that much it's still Burns in my eye that I want to play and shred one day before I get too much older it's still in my heart cuz I still think about building a child of my specs and set aside time to to learn again and achieve my goal before I die LOL peace God bless you my brother from a different mother. You're an unreal guitarist I've never seen nothing like the way you play.

That’s awesome brother! Keep shredding!!

This video really badass. The one thing left out though is explaining how hard you had to work to get from point A to Point B. People have been trying for decades to get around having to practice your ass off and never give up when it’s hard. This is a great illustration of how progress in guitar actually works. Success is very non linear and making these leaps in ability do not come easy.
