Ep3: I Tried Mateus Asato's Guitar Warm-Up For 7 Days - This Is What I Learned

[@MateusAsato]

Thanks for having me! That was fun! You’re one of a kind, Joe! ✨

[@john808welk]

Thank you so much for sharing this! I will definitely be putting this into practice every day!

[@letraipsilon]

Aô, Campo Grande! ❤️

[@JGSHADID]

Mateus! Thanks a million.. this has been a blast 😊🎶

[@ayushmanbhalla8737]

Love u mateus !

[@ryuquiambao2950]

Please do how you dial in your tones :)

[@chanhtrungle1188]

I actually need to warm up to warm up the Mateus ‘s warm-ups

[@gillfortytwo]

Hi, I created some detailed notes so I can follow this routine myself and I'd figure I'd share since some people asked about a PDF in the comments. I also made up some names to go along with each exercise. If anything is wildly off post a comment and I'll correct it later. --- 1 - "Root Note Identification" Use the CAGED system to find common root notes in the different shapes and positions. Go all the way up the neck. Use the common notes as a guide, and make sure to play all of them every time you switch positions. Start with C, and work around the circle of fifths. Goal of this is to help fretboard visualization. 2 - "1-3-2-4 Exercise" Play across the fretboard using the finger pattern 1-3-2-4, one finger per fret. Start on the low E and work towards the high E. Once you play the last note, shift your hand up one fret then work back towards the low E, still using the 1-3-2-4 finger pattern and starting with a down stroke. Goal of this is to get your fingers in a good mood. 3 - "Chromatic Hand Synchronization" Starting from the A on the G string, play the chromatic scale up to and down from the A on the high E using alternate picking. On the way down from A, pick the Bb twice to the restart the pattern with a down stroke. Repeat this pattern until you reach A natural on the G string again, then work back down the neck. Goal of this exercise it to warm up the right hand and to get both your hands in sync. 4 - "Slide Pentatonic on the Big Strings" Play the Am pentatonic scale on the bottom 3 strings, starting from the E. Play the scale in one position, then on the last note, slide up to the next note in the next position. Play this new pentatonic scale down to the root. Repeat this pattern up the neck, then work your way back down. This exercise can be done with any key, Am is just an example. Goal is to view the guitar more horizontally instead of vertically. 5 - "Slide Pentatonic on All Strings" Same idea as exercise 4, but each pentatonic run spans 2 octaves and all 6 strings instead of 1 octave and the bottom 3 strings. Goal is same as well. 6 - "Hybrid Picking Workout" Hybrid pick by alternating between downstrokes with your pick and plucks with your middle finger. Skip a string when you pluck, i.e. if you pick the A pluck the G. Play the F major scale this way, alternating between triad arpeggios and pentatonic scales as your work down the neck. This means play the an F triad, Gm pentatonic, Am triad, Bb pentatonic, C triad, Dm pentatonic, Edim triad, and finally F pentatonic. Slide between the final note to next root note after your chord or pentatonic scale. The chord arpeggios only come down from the low E, and the pentatonics only work up. This is very weird sounding on paper, so reference this tab by Ben C-D to get a better idea of what's going on, postimg(dot)cc/SjTFSMDW. The goal is to work on both hybrid picking, and another unique way to look at scales. 7 - "Double-Stop Cascade" In a major key, play the melodic line of 1-2-b3-3-5-6 in 3 octaves with various double-stops up the neck. Start in 3rds for 1-2-b3-3, then 4ths for 5-6, then 3rds for the next 1-2-b3-3, then triads, then 6ths. Walk down in the pentatonic scale while still using double stops. Having fun with the voicings is the important part here. Think of a vaguely country sound and you'll be in the right territory. Goal is to explore different sounds and chord voicings.

You da man Gill

[@sink9963]

thank you so much gill

[@acrobertson7865]

Massively helpful, thank you. Couldn't quite work out what I was supposed to do in 7 but that makes it a lot clearer.

[@tislota_f]

THANKYOU 🙏

[@Pablo_Dias]

Thank you sooooooooooooo muuuuuuch Gill!!!! Really helpful indeed. Cheers from Brazil!

[@Gahrosatti18]

This is the most important guitar-practice video of the last decades... SO GOOD.

[@agraciotti]

This was more educative in 30 minutes than a whole year in guitar classes. Thanks for that.

[@vladimirmalygin6495]

Man just covers the whole music theory with a warm up. This is extremely helpful. Thank you!

[@jonathandavis5228]

the whole music theory -lol

[@Mysterix619]

I get the idea you don't really know what music theory is.

[@davidacosta3874]

I’ve implemented Asato’s routine for more than a week now. This routine really helps piece things together. The first exercise is great in learning octaves and their relationship on the fretboard. I know where the notes are but there’s a difference in letting your fingers memorize them. I’m still working on the 6 and 7th exercises. Currently I’m working on playing with less stress and more accuracy. I realize the importance of how you practice is how you play. I’m taking it slow. Allowing my fingers to be accurately placed, avoiding buzz and ensuring my notes are full. This routine is a daily keeper 🙏🏻

[@GiovanMedrano]

Thank you for this! I guess I’ve been living under a rock for the past several years. I just discovered Mateus a couple of weeks ago and my mind has been blown ever since. Been obsessed with his playing and wanted to learn more of how he thinks as a musician. This video is perfect for me! Forever grateful for you, Mateus and Joe. 🙏🏼

[@JohnCoughlan_JAC]

Even Asato’s warmups sound awesome. Amazing.

[@michael_caz_nyc]

This was incredible. Just in terms of finger strength, & dexterity - Wow. Mateus Asato is next-level. I love his playing. Thanks for sharing. oNe LovE from NYC

[@georgesarafianos7369]

Thew way his face lights up at 3:22 is real nice. Music is wholesome stuff

[@twosnakse]

Thanks for these! Asato is a modern hero.

[@aubreyesmemusic]

Loving this video series! I'd love to see Julian Lage's Warm up routine. Anyone agree? Thank you once again! X

[@MoXyiD]

OMG Asato lol. Every time he says "Oh i forgot to mention that part there, yeah" the WHOLE EXERCISE LEVELS UP. I love the difficulty in just learning the theory behind them. It's like concentrating a calculus textbook down to a 10 page cheat sheet. I am creating the tablature to each exercise in all keys eventually... it just takes a very long time.

[@maxlew8396]

"I feel like i don't have a very good right hand" is the craziest thing I've ever heard come out of Mateus Asato's mouth

[@estrabinsqui]

Next: Lari Basilio pls

[@sashbc1]

good idea

[@rezkizil2080]

Big thanks for taking the time to do this and sharing it with us all :D Love both your energies! So gassed to get this warm up into my routine!

[@nirmalibasumatary6736]

Thank you REVERB for arranging all these and THANK YOU MATEOUS, i have never seen guitarist like you its so juicy and melodic

When I only had an acoustic guitar, I would always play the exercise 5 alteast 2 years before I got my electric guitar, it helped me visualize the fret board easier when starting out

[@Opethaholic]

This was a great video! You are a great host.

[@_Julian__]

Joe, you’re so rad. Can see the excitement of guitar playing in ya. Awesome to see! God bless!

[@reaganjohnson8950]

Thank you for posting! And Thank you Mateus for sharing. 🙏🏽

[@guilhermexavier2620]

Deve-se passar um filme na cabeça do Mateus, tendo treinado estes exercícios por tanto tempo e ter atingido um nível insano de técnica e depois repassá-los.

[@tanmaysaha212]

Thanks to both of you.💐

[@telemangler]

I spent a LONG time figuring out what the pentatonic pattern is @24:42 Here's the notes from top to bottom: G-C-F-A#-D-G-C-F-B-D-G-C-F-A#-D-G.

[@TacitusKilgore23]

Wow all of these lessons are amazing. Thank you!

[@surrealchemist]

Some of these remind me of the lessons I have seen in the past on Pebber Brown’s channel.

[@carlhansen4837]

Really great video and exercises. No 7 A and B you can hear alot of his normal style coming from that. Thanks mam

[@ciggy420]

Can't tell you how long I've been waiting for this

[@ciro0107]

Very intelligent exercises, doesn't take much time and really helps to understand the guitar

[@AJ.Rafael]

So happy I found this ❤

[@BasedRaven96]

Wow! This gave me some really useful stuff to work on!

[@ThomasLintrup]

Love this video series! Again, I would like to se Joes warm-up

[@musicproductionvideos5019]

I think in #7 he actually switches to "4ths" for those transitions in between all the 3rds & 6ths. IF the lower held note is the next note from the scale.. so the note above it is a 4th. Of course they are indeed 5ths if the order was inverted. He is a wizard!!

[@tim_cilento]

A PDF of all of these exercises would be a huge help

[@nicolasfresard]

Just did it. It's the last video of my youtube channel. Hope you like it, cheers!

this is my first time hearing mateus speaking lol

[@kaiohenrique8503]

Random question: Why does the image quality change when seen from the sides?

[@therealdanielfaris]

can someone tell me how to implement exercise 6 to my playing? is it just practicing hybrid picking?

[@suyash5436]

can someone explain the last exercise in a detailed manner, i cant understand what these fourths, sixths, thirds are,

[@TheRandomSandwich]

anyone know the name of that black hollow body the presenter is playing at the end there? that thing is beautiful

[@DanielGomesBraga]

quarto do asato no brasil claramente

[@therealdanielfaris]

what key is the way back on the second part of exercise 7 where he said that he does a Triad on the D key?

[@Nnamdinnamah]

wow.

[@nfields5]

What camera does Mateus use for his video ?
