[@RickGraham]

Now that's support. Thanks m9!

[@ToneD5150]

Fantastic! I look forward to learning this...I am 71 yrs young and still shredding because of talented individuals like you. Rock til you Drop...!!!

[@michaelcalero4259]

Every time I think I`ve gotten way better. I watch a Rick Graham video, and its back to the drawing board. Awesome stuff!

[@aarongtr180]

So glad I discovered this guy. When I can do runs half as cleanly and fluidly as Rick does, I will consider myself an accomplished guitarist.

[@azazulsoulmeister7959]

You honestly deserve millions of subs. You're the best guitarist I've ever seen in my life.

[@DonVal86]

Thanks for this video. I’ve been playing the blues for years but never delved into shredding out of pure intimidation. Thanks for making the concepts accessible and clear.

[@guismth]

Your an absolutely stellar player and an even more stellar chap for teaching. Thank you!!

[@dagaroth8830]

Rick, you are the man. No joke, one of the best guitar players I have ever seen. I watched you for years and learned a lot. I really enjoy your videos.

[@CatVo1971]

Rick. Every now and then I thought I found a better teacher But now I can say for sure You are the BEST of the BEST. THank you for the wonderful lessons.

[@corilfl]

I love Rick's playing and his videos, but why is it that all of his backing tracks sound like they're ripped straight off a softcore porn video? lmao

[@aleksandarpotocnjak9219]

That sounds better to me than anything I've heard, and I only listen to great guitarists, John Petrucci, Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, Van Halen. You've reached a higher level, in playing the guitar itself.Keep it up. Thank you for the useful tricks and guitar tricks.

[@monsterram6617]

Been watching you for a few months now and I'm glad to hear of your new series. You play with the fluidity and clarity that many aspire to, but few ever attain. Thank you for sharing your talent and insight!

[@DarioGrillo]

Rick, your guitar style is wonderful ! Thank you for video lessons !

[@byronvisiado09]

Man... you're a beast Rick! will try this out

[@Aaronius_Maximus]

Now I know where Tosin's "hammer from no-where" thing came from in his Etude videos haha!! Rick you've greatly inspired at least 2 of my favorite musicians Charles Caswell, and Tosin Abasi.. I can tell they learned a lot from you, can't thank you enough for these great videos you share with us. Earlier this year I got your "killer shred" course and it absolutely has transformed the way I play. I'm excited to try more of your courses. You're such a great teacher and an even better player! All the best to you and your family!

[@andreas7907]

Amazing as usual.

[@Chris.1812]

Is anyone better than Rick? I genuinely don't think there is anyone in the world who tops him...

[@Nightshade1881]

I fucking agree! I honestly feel like Rick just plays so much better than legends like Vai and satriani

[@AnEpicFatalityArchives]

All I had to watch was the intro, you’re amazing.

[@WishfulSinful1969]

BEAUTIFUL SOUNDING arpeggios

[@rijalfahmi2927]

I have looked this video for long time. Thankyou 🙏

[@AtomsOfAdam]

I have recently been trying to make diff or aleast diff from mainstream sweeping patterns...but playing them with absolutely no bleeding through.....diff story. Man Rick everything about the way you play is amazing. Skill, Style, creativity are all past human level of capability.. first heard the solo for the promo for Bare knuckle pickups juggernaut, immediately it became one of the best solos I've ever heard and probably ever will here. Honestly makes me want to quit playing guitar, same feeling you get when you hear Stevie Ray Vaughan, Jimi Hendrix, Steve Vai, Dimebag Darrell, !RANDY RHOADS! and endless other amazing guitarist that reach God level of guitar playing. 🤘🏻

[@cherokusake6144]

You da man rick keep it up!!!

[@rolandlemus203]

Cough! Not that the backing track was Prn like LOL, that cracked me up, I subscribed about a year ago, and I haven't seen one vid you posted where I didn't LEARN something valuable! So, I appreciate your vids a LOT! The opening sweeps and legato runs I believe they are, are too cool! I will be working off on this one and trying to pick up some of the items here, thanks for posting!!

[@TheRabidRabbi29]

1:55 that sounds so freaking cool. Already tabbed it out in my head, gonna try it tomorrow.

[@gingerrussell]

Where do I need to be looking to improve my sweep picking technique? Any recommended videos? Or shall I just keep playing to the metronome?

[@Eduardot12345556]

this might be a little late but if you're still interested check out Ben Eller's "this is why you suck at guitar" he has a great, very in-depth lesson on sweeping

Rick your fingers are big. How do you able to play so clean? I like how play so clean.

[@betomiranda5008]

I am your fan, you"re anexo excelent guitarrist

[@lewisbirkett4428]

Such an amazing guitarist. I'm trying to improve speed but have bad habit of holding my thumb behind the fretboard facing outwards rather than parallel to my fingers it makes it hard for quick movement along the fretboard. And I keep squeezing the strings that hurts my thumb

[@xoznemen]

Rick eres asombroso amigo

[@luispimentel518]

Tried learning this thinking I may be able to actually pull it off... nope! THIS IS LESSON 1!?!?! Fml

[@geraldlikens4750]

Practice the notes slowly and memorize them. Speed comes later even for advanced players. Don't give up this is great material for any guitarist!

[@kukumuniu5658]

Hi,do You have any videos here about: - how to create 9th 11th 13th shells in order to contain the essential harmonic quality of this chords? Which notes we can skip in Cmaj13 to keep 13th character?etc

[@kevinafterlife]

hey rick what camera did you use? you are amazing!

[@willianfeijodasilva7925]

Muito bom Deus ti abençoe

[@zinzermunch]

Hi Rick, why do you play an Am over F#m7? There's a C natural in Am and a C# in F#m7, wouldn't those 2 notes clash? If you were using an F#m7b5 it would fit nicely, I'm sure you have a reason for it and that's why I'm asking you, it's not criticism, I just would like to know if you don't mind. Nice videos mate.

[@Periph1989]

He doesn't play that... he plays a G#m arpeggio and a C#m arpeggio over the F#m, and then he plays a Am arpeggio over the AmM7, then for the E chord, he plays a E arpeggio starting with the G# when he ascends then a C#m arpeggio when he descends.

[@brandopiansay9557]

A very nice speed...

[@runnershigh7573]

Hi Rick...may i ask you which exact type of guitar it is? Great tutorial btw. Have a great weekend! Cheers Roger

[@Williaem00]

Runnershigh75 I think it’s an ibanez s series something 700s

[@AldrinLomgenGates10]

I'd already subscribed it.... I inspired you through facebook!!!!

[@genesishandboards]

This was great! I do have a question, which setting do you use for your pickups? I've been using my neck pickups and seems to have a cleaner tone for the notes without getting muddy from other strings. But at the same time using other patterns I get loads of feed from my other strings, not sure of the best way to quite them up without muting them which dampens the sound. I hope that made since Haha. I cant seem to find a direct answer on this issue. Maybe too much gain?

[@julyomaulanaputra1212]

dope bro 👍👍

[@DavidHolywood]

Please say something about the height of the strings on the fretboard and string gauge.

[@Williaem00]

I subbed

[@larrywhitted7333]

Hey Rick? Honestly? Are you human? I love your playing.

[@civilibot]

Hi, Rick. Thank you for the video, but I have a question. How can you not let ring the G,B and high E strings in basic minor arpeggio? I find it kinda hard, cuz they are at the same frets ( 16th on that shape ).

[@lilsavage79]

thats one of the hardest things for me when sweeping is when adjacent notes are on the same fret. also, sweeping open strings. have to get the finger roll and string muting down solid. lots of patience. not easy to do.

[@civilibot]

Dan Schnorr you're right, it's not easy to do. thanks for your suggestions man.
