Well produced and very informative videos with a cool angle to shredding. I'm writing this comment in June 2024 when the channel has approx. 6000 subs. Within a couple of years there will be hundreds of thousands, mark my words. Thank you so much for this awesome content.

Nuno docet 🤟

[@LifeAdvisorSigma]

This channel has it. Perfect. You will have that Silver Play button as soon as the algo picks you up. I need more of what is in your brain. Keep making videos brother. PS: For future video ideas: How you take 3 or 4 of Nuno's best techniques and seamlessly integrate them into your own original solo should be an ongoing series (pillar) on your channel. You could cycle through all the great great players, but if you would also highlight your thought process on how you connect these legendary techniques with melodic interludes this would be ideal, for me at least. I can play fast, and I can play with feel, but I struggle composing the two into a beautiful solo. Finally, please keep sharing the tips and shortcuts you've discovered to solve picking, fretting, coordination difficulties within techniques. That stuff is gold.

[@fulltimeguitar]

Thanks so much! I do hope i get to place a silver play button with my whiskey collection! i take a fair amount of time composing those "final solos", i'm glad they get appreciated haha. I'll think about doing more longer videos / deeper dives into my process for those and for technique in future. thanks for the ideas :D

[@sidalientv]

@@fulltimeguitar I enjoy such videos very much. Due to overplaying, I developed arhrosis in both thumbs and I am giving guitar and bass tuition and play only in my recording studio. Until now, I did not find any doctor able to give me a solution. Anyway, I upload my music regularly to my KZbin Channel.

[@ranepoppa6654]

First of all, excellent lesson. The way you break things down to a digestible form is the perfect way to get any guitar part up-to-tempo fairly quickly, and unfortunately it’s grossly under-taught in the guitar community. Secondly, what are you using for tone here? Sounds great man

[@fulltimeguitar]

Thanks! I playing through my Fractal Audio AX8, its an emulation of a Bogner Shiva "Shiver Lead" with a little compression at the start of the chain

Make a video on his muted lagato technique

[@GoldenFriedTofu]

AWESOME video! One thing I have always struggled with is: how do you keep the strings and other strings from still engine out while you're playing the riffs? Where and what are you muting the other strings with. No one seems to cover that part.

[@fulltimeguitar]

Do you mean for one of these licks? or just generally speaking? I'm actually going to be covering muting in an upcoming video soon, which will have some exercises that might help. let me know if you meant a particular lick tho :D

[@GoldenFriedTofu]

@@fulltimeguitar Generally, for all the licks. but specifically when you are skipping strings. What is your muting technique for not having the other strings ring out. Specifically the B (my nemesis LOL) But a muting video would be awesome! THANK YOU

[@edelgod6683]

awesome lesson, can you teach how to play S'OK solo from Dramagods (Nuno's solo project)?

[@profitnadeem]

I can barely get past the first exercise but this is great work and cool lessons.

[@fulltimeguitar]

Glad you liked it! Each exercise has different levels, so you can spend time at level 1 or level 2 for each exercise. and remember Nuno is a monster, nailing these licks at tempo will take time :)

[@profitnadeem]

@@fulltimeguitar true facts! Thanks dude! This was mad informative though, you rock!!! 🗿

[@dabiededoo]

aah. its that easy.. I didnt understand that tabs like 12 ~0.. but its just 0 with hammer ons between😂 I thougt its a slide so far.. that didnt sound if I dit it.. and then still didnt got it because you cant slide to 0😅 thanks for this explanation🎉🎉 that fast I cannot but now I finally know how it works and can start.. also this kind of teaching is more easy then most videos that I cannot follow.. I watched lots of tabs that I cant play and people explaining things I cannot follow.. (I play only 8 weeks or some less). buy finally got it with this video

[@fulltimeguitar]

Awesome! glad to hear it, keep it up :D

[@brandonisdumb324]

So much good content. Please look into doing Mayer & Tremonti at some point

[@fulltimeguitar]

Tremonti is super underrated player! i may well do a video for him... spoiler alert tho, next up is gunna be EVH :)

[@dabiededoo]

only the thing at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="638">10:38</a> how do you get that sound because you dont pick the strings if you tab both hands?.. I cant get good sound like that or do you still pick the strings like that between all that movement with fingertips?

[@fulltimeguitar]

nah there is no picking in this lick. coming down the lick, when changing strings, its a "hammer from nowhere" or a left hand tap. all the levels on each exercise are more or less the same just different speeds, watch and follow along with the slowest one, i hope you get it soon :)

[@RobTackettCovers]

You tap with your middle finger...I'm really not sure what finger I use when I tap...I think I switch my pick...which thinking about it, is adding something that might not need to be done...like adding a step that doesn't necessarily need to be in there...I need to do a conscious evaluation of what I do when I tap...hahaha!

[@fulltimeguitar]

Yeah this is something i forgot to mention: Nuno does a right hand tap with his first finger EVH style, i much prefer the modern style with the middle finger. for these licks, either will work tho :)

[@andreasnewitsch59]

Thats the exercise that gave birth to thunderstruck. And sounds a lot like Bach that tempestuous e minor thing.

[@fulltimeguitar]

Pedal tones where popular in 1800th centry european music Aka classical music. so yes :D ACDC featured in my next video :D

[@colinmilton8823]

Guitarist like that aren’t inventing for themselves secret techniques to practice. It’s really just their natural dexterity between the left and right hands. They’re not really putting much effort or practice into the solo when it’s recorded at the studio. Anything that difficult would not be possible to perform during a live show.

[@fulltimeguitar]

yep! thanks

[@kidwolfman]

I hear pick strokes on the first example (play with me). I'm all for creative solutions for the seemingly impossible, and you've come up with a good one... but don't think that's how he did it. Slow it down, you can hear it. All that aside, great vid man :)

[@dwarkanathpramanik8545]

I could swear I hear the pick strokes to. And I too couldn't believe it for the longest time and don't want to take shortcuts. But after watching tons of videos of Nuno playing it and really watching his right hand I have to say that Doug is spot on. It's a combination of Nuno's muting, tone and probably a fairly light pick attack (to match the dynamics) that creates the illusion of more picking than actually is the case for such passages. Just to name another example, in the solo from Peacemaker Die he only picks every third note although it sounds like there's a lot more picking going on. So there is a ton of muted legato and hammer-ons from nowhere all over Nuno's playing. Especially when crossing from a higher to a lower string. There is one shape/pattern that he uses in Midnight Express, Money, Get the Funk Out, the outro solo from It's a Monster and the beginning of the Hip Today solo which is very helpful to unlocking some of his seemingly impossible licks. It's great that Doug is sharing this information and made an excellent good video. Thanks Doug!

[@fulltimeguitar]
