Pro Tips: Top 10 Yngwie Malmsteen Guitar Tricks, Licks & Techniques

[@randyesquire]

YES! no fluff, straight in, short and sweet with everything a guitarist needs to pick up elements within minutes - rather than trawling through a 20 minute video to find ONE vaguely useful bit! This is spot on for Tuition video work mate - cheers!

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

Cheers dude! Yeah, you nailed my main aim; trying to pack as much useful info into my videos as I can and keep the run time as trim as possible. Not always an easy thing to do, tangents and other ideas will always pop in to my head :D

Great lesson, I would note that even for an experienced guitarist, this 19 minute lesson is about 2 months of work to get down if you are not familiar playing this style. Even more to get it to full yngwie shreding speed. 2 months of guitar lessons for free, wow the internet is amazing.

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

[@WyattScott]

since 1985 when i started playing and learning Yngie ive been using a four finger approach to the ascending and descending runs which i finally realize is whats been holding me back from mastery. Think he only uses 3 fingers like you are doing. Excited to try it and see if i can make some long over due progress

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

Go for it dude! I spent a long time trying to use my pinky as much as possible, when I noticed guys like Yngwie, Andy James & Guthrie Govan hardly use them I figured I'd cut myself some slack. Definitely improved my playing, consistency and that sort of thing!

Nice to see some light on his playing by someone who understands and appreciates it.

That chord progression and some of the triplets gave me goosebumbs 😬

I have a comment his three string sweeps are unique he came up with peculiar technique where basically on e and b string on ascending he does upstroked but then moves a pick over g strings and then does g b e string very fast down sweep!This is a technical detail i just wanted to make this as a side remark!🌝

[@joebermuda6452]

The most integral things to malmsteen in my opinion is legato, harmonic minor, Phrygian and diminished modes, sweep picking, pedal tones, and a monster bending and vibrato ability.From there just spend lots of tome playing lead and creating riffs with it

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

Yeah, only other things I'd put in there are his picking technique, sequencing, following chords and showmanship!

GOD WHAT A NICE CLASS, THANKS TEACHER

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

Many thanks Arthur! Hope you got plenty of licks and idea out of this! 🤘

[@MusicMan121]

The only thing I would point out is that, as shown in Troy's videos, the sweeping technique YJM uses is different in terms of up/downs. At 8.59 you go D-U-U-D-D and if I'm not mistaken, he goes U-U-D-D-D (with downslanting), which is a completely different technique.

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

You're probably right on that one! I think the video I did on his sweeps corrected that- kzbin.info/www/bejne/mqHYp4pmebiKaJI but it's been a long time since I made that one, so could very well be mistaken!

[@antoinefleuriot2509]

Great lesson but I would like to point out although they can be adapted many of theses licks follow a particular chord type & progression, tempo, key and so can be awkward to just slot in a different song so can be a bit limited without adapting them and having an understanding of chord/scale relationships. But they give you some great ideas and techniques on YJM's style. Put it another way for the layman with limited guitar chord/scale theory it can be awkward to add a bit of Malmsteen flavor to your cover of for example, Journeys, Separate ways just off the bat of these licks especially as some follow a particular chord progress.

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

Yeah, totally spot on! I know the theory won't land with a lot of players, or will put them off, so for me it's a case of trying to cover the bases and explain it, without getting too sidetracked :)

[@billwilliams6338]

JBF MUSIC & GUITAR, can you make a video showing "Nylon string chords" yngwie plays on his Acoustic Nylon string guitar because he uses diminished chords and classical bach slash chords but only uses them on his Acoustic Nylon guitar songs that are intros like in dark stars intro, evil eyes acoustic guitar into, etc and others songs he uses acoustic nylon string guitar parts.

[@uziquattro1083]

for some reason that single string pedal riffs are messing me up. the 2 string one makes it easier to chunk it all for me for some reason! more practice on this one for me i suppose! this is a great vid man!

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

Cheers mate, really appreciate that :) Hmm, could be a few things- Make sure you're not holding the strings down too hard (This is a really good exercise for that: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gKOlmoGAYrlgrtE) Or, anchoring your hand if it needs to move- it gets a bit strechty! That part is in 6/8, so the timeshift might throw you off a bit? Let me know if any of that helps? If not, still let me know and I'll have a think about other possible hurdles! But yeah, any excuse to practice is good in my book :D

Many thanks; always great to hear that :) I'm honestly not too sure what I used for this! That Strat is an Ash Lite, all stock. I would probably have used the Axe Fx 2 for this, I'd guess I started with the Yngwie patch and probably tweeked it a little bit. At a guess it's probably a Marshall Amp, 4x12 cab, quite possibly with a tube screamer of other boost in front of it? I probably put the mids up a bit say 6/7 and dropped the treble and bass to maybe 4 or something? I'm not sure I saved the patch, so can't be entirely sure though!

[@Guitarsgunsandghosts]

@@JbfMusicGuitar funny story about the pick. I didn't catch it. My sister's boyfriend got turned into a pretzel by a huge security guard for that pick. Yngwie threw it and it landed right behind this railing by the stage. My sister's boyfriend ran for it and I guess the security guy thought he was rushing the stage and tackled him and while dave was getting twisted into a pretzel he's still reaching for the pick of Destiny. My sister says well dave is getting thrown out again. Lol, he's a little crazy and does some funny crazy stuff. Gets thrown out sometimes. Anyway he gets to the pick and shows the guard that that's all he wanted and dude let him go. So dave comes back to us and gives me the pick. Then goes and buys a beer and acts like nothing happened. Lol

@@Guitarsgunsandghosts Haha, that's amazing!!! the pick even has a great origins story, see now I'm just more jealous, lol! Dave sounds like a legend, top bloke. Also, the idea of someone rushing the stage at an Yngwie show is also pretty funny in itself. Brilliant.

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

No problem bro, hope you get plenty of mileage from the licks and ideas!

[@brandon_945]

That’s a problem I’ve experienced with strats, because of their fretboard radius the action can only go so far before choking out. On my Wolfgang I can get lower action and still do 2 step bends. Maybe I’ll leave the strats to Yngwie 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

The radius is a bit of a pain to be honest, really prefer a much flatter one! His scalloped frets might help out with those big bends?

3:06 So, Yngwie Malmsteen also use the melodic minor scale? if i use this scale with pedal notes and if i mix it with the harmonic minor, could i create a neoclassical sound?

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

In short, yes! He uses the melodic minor, but I'd suggest starting with the harmonic minor first, then start to explore the melodic. Pedal point and harmonic minor will definitely give you some neoclassical sounds, I'd also look at making up some sequences :)

[@lorddominicshadow4210]

Hi, you put the rules That he use to descending, the "ascending" is the same? Sorry, im no understand english too much

Hey man what drum machine you use for this Vedic? Or it is just a loop?

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

Probably EZ drummer or EZ drummer 2, might have been the drum kit from hell sample set, but I'm not 100% sure! Hope that helps?

[@joshmuz9018]

For some reason the harmonic and melodic minor scales style he uses is so much easier to play fast and she'd through then pentatonic ones. Which most consider easier. Is there a reason for this

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

I'm not sure, but I'd guess it's to do with how the shapes connect- generally not too many jumps or stretches an you can position shift a bit more naturally. You've got more notes on each string than pentatonic, so there's more choice for picking different notes on same string. Those are my best guesses anyway! Do you reckon they might play a role?

[@jonathanlewis4077]

Awesome

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

[@trevorgwelch7412]

I have an Eric Clapton Strat and a 65 Deluxe reverb amp will that do the trick ?

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

Don't see why not! If you have a drive pedal that tightens up the low end, should get you in the ballpark for a Malmsteen tone. Having said that, his tone has been a lot bassier in the last 10-20 years

Hey man, all my Yngwie related content is in that comment pinned to the top :) Just used one Backing Track for this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eJTRhqqEjJ6KptE The time codes for where the licks in this lesson fit into the backing track are in the details bit under the video. I also these two Yngwie Style backing tracks: Track in A: kzbin.info/www/bejne/goa3dJKCfKyHr7M Backing Track in F#: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y32yi4efrtCnnZI

Thank you brother...

No problem dude :)

Please making Michael Romeo

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

Hey man, I don't much about Michael Romeo's playing, would take a fair while to learn his songs, analyse his playing, create licks going over his different techniques and turn that into a lesson, so I doubt I'll make that any time soon! Will let you know if I do though :)

[@nakinaki7991]

Just go to Michael Romeo directly he explains his lessons himself... and hi is a fckn beast !

[@oscarernestoroberts4190]

I think I've heard him playing something a bit Arabic. Anyone suggests a song in that sense? I don't remember the name

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

The harmonic minor can have that sort of sound, so you're probably right, but I can't think of the song off the top of my head, sorry!

A well placed bit of 3 string sweeping over a cool chord progression is always a bit of a winner of me as well!

Thanks bro for the licks ..u are great... But i think malmsteen not sweep picking..

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

Cheers man! I'm pretty sure sweep picking is one of his techniques, otherwise that would be some insane alternate picking!

@@JbfMusicGuitar ok bro thank for licks.. Very cool man.. Can u upload.. How malmsteen setup his amp.. Pedal.. I want learn his setup to

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

I think it's his signature guitar, his YJM marshals and his signature overdrive pedal, these are the rig rundowns I used (they're in that pinned comment): Rig Run Downs: kzbin.info/www/bejne/lanYaIptrKh1h9k (2017) kzbin.info/www/bejne/mHXLf6hmrZuEnbs (2011) This might be worth a look as well: equipboard.com/pros/yngwie-malmsteen. I don't know what settings he uses, but live he's got quite a bright sound; a maple fretboard and boosting the highs and mids will help with that, also not as much gain as you might think :)

[@furryz666]

This is a good basic Malmsteen lesson, well done, but I disagree on the overproduced over analyzed and overly pretentious“Troy G” vids his rules are quite silly frankly but will seem to work for some who practice the cheesy TG method the key word here is “practice” there is no golden rule and most seasoned shredders have been playing the neo-classical styles of Malmsteen and many others using any technique that works, including alternate picking, legato, hybrid, “notes from no where” or any combination of these with very convincing results..40+ years of guitar- studio, touring and instruction here brother, Troy is a tool not a great teacher reference but he makes pretty videos, much better off with Rick Graham or if Malmsteen is your thing “Panos” could be his Greek sonic twin, peace

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

Thanks, yeah trying get some helpful tips across, but keep it fairly snappy! Fair enough man, I've found the two way pick slanting to be a huge help; I'm able to play stuff I never could have done before. Similarly, by being aware of this, my economy picking had gotten better as well. My main aim was to improve consistency; still a work in progress, but when isn't it with guitar, eh! Understandably he's not everyone's cup of tea, and you'e quite right there are lots of ways to play the same lick- just thought it was worth highlighting Malmsteen's approach for anyone who might take to it and find that method useful :)

[@marcusheawood8560]

Troys analysis of picking strategies goes deep but if you only take what you need from it then your technique will improve dramatically very quickly, like most guitar players my left hand facility greatly exceeded my right hand ability, Troys work has helped me to restore some balance in my fast playing. Pedagogy sucks but it's a necessary evil.

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

Yeah totally! To be fair, Furryz had a really good point of actually practicing- it's pretty easy to just watch videos and not apply it, I know I do that from time to time. Although, from your post I'd wager you'll well aware of this potential pitfall :)

“Ing vay”, not “ing gwee” and turn down the music, so your voice can be better heard 😉

I've been told there is a right way, a wrong way and the Ing Vway!

Hes Sweden so Its actually more like “Yngve” and the e in the ending is pronounced like the e in “energy”. There’s no y at the end. And the Y is pronounced like an i but instead of making the i sound like this 😬 you go more like this 😗

[@johnp.johnson1541]

*Yngwie DOES NOT SWEEP.* Yngwie's technique is economy picking of alt picking plus pull-offs, hammer-ons, and raking, which is maintaining pick direction sometimes from string-to-string but never more than an additional string. Sweep picking means playing at least an entire chord (3 tones) arpeggio in one direction over three strings. One can play a tetrad or pentrad over 4 or 5 strings. The minimum though is always three strings and a triad (chord). Excellent vid otherwise.

[@squidly2112]

Can hardly hear a thing you say .. voice is WAY too soft!!!

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

Haha, sorry mate, can't do too much about that I'm afraid! Started putting subtitles on a while back, don't know if they're on this one though?

[@juanman1]

lower your action

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

Should just scallop the frets, so I can have it at 0mm! Haha :D

[@MehYam2112]

I'm not sure Yngwie's action is low

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

I'm not too sure to be honest, one of the tutors where I studied had a support slot with Yngwie's band years ago- I have a vague memory of him saying the action was a lot higher than he thought it would be. He had a go on Yngwie's guitar and found it a bit tricky to play, which Malmsteen found rather amusing :)

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

Fair enough, that seems to make sense!

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

Honesty I didn't even notice! Always worth while chipping in to the conversation :)

[@kodiakandgrizzlybears3787]

But Malmsteen is crap!!!!!

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

I'd get that he might not be your thing, but the guy can play! ... Or misunderstood sarcasm?

[@stanky9875]

I heard Yngwie joined Night Ranger.🤔

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

In all honest I'd be interested to hear that!
