Hey man, I feel obliged to say this. Before I found this video I was a shit guitarist. Two months ago I started each of these exercises. I made a comment at that time (later deleting it) where I vowed to take this practice seriously. Every morning with coffee, without fail. Using a metronome and a desire to make things sound as clean and precise as possible, I have mastered each exercise. Even the sixteenth notes. Playing across the entire fretboard (still gets muddy towards fret 15, but improving). As a result, I have noticed my ability to play my current selection with the technical precision that your drills have taught. I cannot emphasize enough how grateful I am to you and to this instrument, which I believe is teaching more about life than any formal education I have ever received. Much love brother. Thank you again.

I played these about 15-45 minutes everyday in three 15 minutes sessions throughout the day. I began noticing improvement on the third day. The first exercise in particular allowed me to really familiarize myself with the width between each string. I've always had problems with my ring finger accuracy, so now I can really feel the muscle memory in my finger placement as I move around the fret board. It also stretches my fingers in a way that allows me to play for longer periods of time without cramping up.

Mmm, I know half the players out there don’t place their thumb on the back of the guitar’s neck for support and for speed, but just wrap it around the neck instead, where it “feels comfortable” (to them), and because they can kinda fret some low notes with their thumb that way, and after all that’s how _Hendrix_ played*, so how could it be wrong?? Yet, I will maintain until my dying day, your thumb belongs on the back of the neck, supporting your fingers. Wrapping it around the neck is pretty wrong. I mean …live and let live? …whatever works for you, at the end of the day? BUT - I can play better and faster with my thumb placed right, on the back of the neck, and I wish more self-taught players would try it for enough of a length of time to see if their playing doesn’t improve - I think that, after a few months, with their thumb placed right, they’d be pleasantly surprised to be playing better and faster! So I like your suggestions, but feel I must sound a note of caution about your finger-strength suggestion, and urge your readers not to grow accustomed to what many consider a bad habit. 🎸 *Although his hands were so big he could barre the whole neck with his thumb while shaping chords with his fingers!
@alejandroblanco2071
@alejandroblanco2071 5 жыл бұрын
My take on that is to let your hand and thumb adjust naturally around the neck. When I started learning guitar I took classical guitar lessons for several years (which meant placing the thumb right behind the neck) then I started playing electric and discovered so many outstanding players that would wrap-around the wood with their thumbs, I embraced that too and my hand started feeling right & kept hearing & paying attention to that dinosaur bullshit about technique "you have to play a certain way otherwise is wrong" over & over. Soon I realized those preaching that kind of Gospel are so out of touch and close-minded and usually don't make musical or artistic statements , they're just "technique" practitioners... Also experiencing Pat Metheny live in concert creating such wonderful and magical music passages at slow ,mid and considerably fast tempos and everything in between with his thumb placed almost on top of the fretboard made me think, dang! an academic player & studious of the jazz styles is doing it "wrong" but he's leaving a musical foot print since he came out on the scene . That validated my inner belief of going different routes & applying different manners and "techniques" in order to serve the musical discourse and & those pretending to write the "Bible" on doing things one way "the right technique", are establishing limitations for themselves and others...

i've had guitars around me my whole life. my dad and oldest brother both play(ed) like gods, at least in my mind. yet i mostly only play simple chords with the songs i write, and always feel like i should be better for how long i've been playing. thanks to quarantine, i've got hella spare time on my hands and am deciding to move into the next phase of my musical life by really getting into skills / techniques with my guitar playing. it's important to remind myself that playing for a long time is one thing, but playing for a long time and practicing skill / techniques with the stated goal of improving your playing is something else entirely. thanks for these! love them already.

Hey RJ, I started doing these exercises, and recently bought Rock Discipline since you mentioned that they came from that book. Unfortunately, I'm already feeling extremely discouraged because I can't get my fingers in some of the positions, especially when I have to separate my second and third fingers. And I'm only on part one of the warm up exercises! I've been playing guitar for a few years, but I guess maybe I never challenged myself enough to make tougher stretches. Any tips??

Take your time with the shapes, hold them there for a bit, it won't be comfortable and it may take a week of just focusing on that aspect to see progress. Often for really tricky shapes/positions just looking at the movement alone and working on that really slowly can get you moving forward but obviously it can get boring but you just gotta get passed that.

Ok I have a confession. I attempted this months ago and BOY it was so harsh I left it and forgot to come back to it and grinded it out for about 20-30 mins and omg I can already see the improvements Thank you so much for this lesson. It really changed my dexterity

Ditty, great to hear you gave it another go. It's ok to do these exercises at your own pace, in fact starting it slow is my recommendation.

Fantastic lesson R.J! I've paid my dues with the Petrucci exercises and now I'm working my students into them as well! I however did not do the eyes closed exercise with triads. I've been getting my students to locate a root on all the strings from 0 to 12 fret for symmetry and now I think I'm going to include this in as well!! Have a blessed weekend!

I had this book AND the VHS. As a lead player, I still use the 2nd exercise occasionally to warm up before playing a show. It's a great exercise to kick-start the hands working together. The first one is great for getting the right hand to listen to your brain's internal rhythm. The first time I tried it, I almost threw the book away. But it got easier in a short amount of time.. If you find yourself getting too frustrated, just stop, shake your hands out, and say to yourself, "reset." Then start over. Great video!

The ten HR workout is alot similar. Ten hrs is along time. U used to do it once a week and picked the parts of the workout that I had troubles with to do during my short workouts during the week. Then go back to the full workout split through 2 days. I found that my wrists were stronger when I split the workout in two days. I really like the first workout lesson on this video. Thanks for posting.

R.J. Ronquillo Guitar yeah things were great back then. Then I lost interest and stopped playing when my priorities took up most of my time. I was going to pick it back up but just kept procrastinating. I miss it so much. So I am preparing to pick it back up. There is so much I have to relearn. Posts like this and a few others are instilling motivation. Got some time on my hands for the next three months so no time like the present. If you can think of any tips to get these old fingers spider hands moving again let me know. I'd hate to see all of those years of learning and playing result in nothing. One thing I know I have still is emotions feel. That's what sets players apart from robots. Lol

A BIG THANK YOU RJ for your video : when I discoverd it I felt I'd just discovered a treasure. This is a new start for me. Thirty years with guitars in my bedroom but no results because no efforts. I'm starting all over again, with a single rule and a new instrument : playing seriously several times a day.. New STRAT = New START ! ! !
