Thank you very much, great lick and great explanation. What an amazing player you are. I appreciate the time you spent on this and your other vids. Cheers! z

[@kennywally]

Thank you for this! It's super challenging for me, and I love it. I really have to break it down and get inside the riff, and you've done that very well. Anybody have a solution to stop at least some of the ringing / droning the guitar makes in the background when picking with your right hand off the strings, the gypsy jazz way?

[@Remi_Harris]

Cheers Ken! I very rarely dampen the strings to avoid sympathetic ringing on my acoustic guitars to be honest. On an electric it's much more noticeable because of the way pickups and amps compress the sound, so it's much more common to dampen the strings with your palm. But on an acoustic I've never found it to be an issue for me. I think of a little sympathetic ringing as a kind of natural ambiance in a way. You also get ringing behind the bridge on a gypsy guitar which I quite like, it's a bit like when you hear the springs vibrate inside a Fender Strat tremolo, it adds a little ambiance to the tone. That's how I think of it anyway, I'm sure other people will have differing opinions on it though. Glad you like the video. All the best. Remi 🙂👍

[@GuitarBluesHury]

Any advice concerning speed?. How to reach that speed? Subscribed!

[@Remi_Harris]

Hey Martin. Building speed is something that just takes time, there's no real shortcut that I know of. I recommend practicing with a metronome at a tempo that feels comfortable, where you can play everything right without struggling or tensing up. Then gradually up the tempo in small increments, this will slowly push your ceiling up. Try to only play at tempos where you are relaxed and playing everything right. As soon as you're making mistakes or tensing up too much I'd back the tempo off. You don't want to practice your mistakes. Also, warming up is really important for me, when I practice I always start with things that are easy to play and I never attempt anything challenging until I'm properly warmed up. Hopefully this helps a little and feel free to ask me anything else. Cheers 🙂👍

Thanks, Remi. Your playing is so nice. Your methods produce results, for sure. I am going to follow you more!! Do you ever do private lessons? If so, how do I get in touch?

[@Remi_Harris]

Thank you! I'm not really doing private lessons at the moment but I may do again one day. I do workshops from time to time though, they're advertised on my social media/mailing list/website etc. whenever we do them 🙂👍

[@hugofirst2466]

Cool thanks man

[@Remi_Harris]

Cool man 🙂👍

[@ladybzoficial8401]

Wow impressionante

[@zacblow3528]

Hey Remi - amazing video! Could you explain how you go about using arpeggios to create phrases and melodies?

[@Remi_Harris]

Hey Zac. Glad you like the video. I guess there's a few different approaches. When I'm improvising it's very instinctive, I like to be always aware of how the note I'm playing relates to the chord I'm on and sometimes the key and/or the next chord in the sequence too. I tend not to think in strict or complete arpeggios or scales, it's mainly just how the notes relate to the musical situation. That's the main thought process for me, but I've been thinking like this way for so long that it's instinctive now so I'm not really calculating the notes while I'm playing. It just happens naturally. When I'm composing stuff I can think more about every note which can lead to different ideas than what I would play when I'm improvising but the thought process is usually the same. Mainly just how the notes relate to the musical situation. Having said that I will use complete scales and arpeggios at times too but even when I'm playing a scale I'm usually thinking of how each note is relating the the chord I'm on as well. For example if I run up a whole tone scale from an A over an A7 I'm thinking 1 2 3 #4 #5 7 1 etc. I hope I'm explaining this OK. I think I'll have to try and do a proper video explaining in a but more detail though. Hopefully that helps a little.

[@zacblow3528]

@@Remi_Harris Thanks Remi. That’s very interesting and has given me some ideas - I think my problem is I’ve been concentrating too much on playing the arpeggio rather than using the arpeggio as a tool to target chord tones. A video on this would be amazing!

[@guitarlovesongsvol2]

Could you tell me the name of the guitar you are playing ? Thank you !

[@Remi_Harris]

Hey! This is my signature guitar from Fylde Guitars. Here's a link if you wanted to check it out www.fyldeguitars.com/remiharris.html 🙂👍

[@j.r.goldman3279]

I can play that fast but I would have to lower my strings.

[@freebee8221]

Im guessing you are a huge Django Reinhardt fan?

[@Remi_Harris]

Yep! 🙂👍
