Awesome vid - Can you do a tutorial on pinch harmonics?

[@rakman_guitarjams]

There’s plenty of decent tutorials out there already so do a quick search. But the idea is to use a tiny bit of thumb flesh in addition to the pick to achieve a pinch harmonic. So you’ll need to shift the pick very slightly in favor of the thumb to pick the string with both flesh and pick. Turn up volume and gain bc these make pinch harmonics come through better. Play around till you get it and try to practice that technique on different strings, as different string thicknesses will require a slightly different pick orientation. After you discover the right method once and practice it, it stays with you no problem. Have fun!

[@Mevlaaahmad9]

​@@rakman_guitarjamsthank you

[@Sasquatch33]

Tbh there's not really anyway to explain it perfectly it kinda just happens by trying it till you get it. You stick a tiny bit of the side your thumb on the left side of the pick and you simultaneously pick and hit the string with your thumb at the same time. You have to angle it your pick slightly down aswell so that your thumb makes contact.

[@amogh_veena]

Trust me man figuring it out by yourself is the best just see a basic tutorial and keep trying

[@chuckp342]

"Pop" the string whilst almost simultaneously muting the string with your thumb - bend or vibrato for accent. It's really trial and error. You can bend the string and quickly hammer off for quick chirps.

This is literally TOP GEAR and I love it :D

THANK YOU FOR THAT INFORMATION!!!

[@lizzard13666]

Your knowledge on scales and guitar tips is legendary. Like, maybe there's better guitarists (heavy on the maybe), but I don't think I've seen someone with your ability to teach it. This channel is crazy good. Love your work man. Thanks for bringing a little bit of magic and music back to the cesspool that is the internet, and to our lives!

[@danbromberg]

Vely intelesting! Just added to my endless TODO list.

bro i thoight this poece is about through the fire and flames

[@theshapeexists]

Triads were my epiphany moment to figuring out soloing across the neck. This is great for the new guys learning

[@Doofusdandy]

Feast your eyes on this! Music theory 💀

[@kagenotatsumaki]

Is telling people to play the 3 notes that make up the 4 chords really "Music Theory" though? Lol

[@gk6993]

One of your better tips in my opinion. I just don't know all the other knowledge surrounding this. But, thank you.

[@scottandersen508]

Thanks as always! I Gotta work on those damn triads lol

[@robbieasaldo2090]

Now i can incorporate that with scales

[@atrothe]

Very good.

[@moderngamer1858]

Wow ❤

[@m.vonhollen6673]

There’s really only one scale: the chromatic scale. Now you can choose to leave out certain notes if you wish, or use them all; you just have to always be aware of how they are functioning against the background chord. Here’s an example over a Dominant 7 chord: 1-3-5-b7 are the chord tones which are the “safest” notes; you can sit on them all day. Next are 2-4-6 (aka 9-11-13) which are scale tones from Mixolydian; also add in b3 (which almost always should resolve upwards to 3) and b5 from the Blues scale. Now you have this: 1-2-b3/3-4-b5-5-6-b7. These 9 notes are the most “inside” and usable notes over a Dominant 7th chord (in a Blues). Only b2-b6-7 remain, and all three can be used as chromatic passing tones (in the right context). Note that b5 (Gb over C7) against the I chord will become b9/b2 over the IV chord (Gb over F7), and is pretty much essential. Both b6 and 7 are useable as chromatic passing tones. - So find yourself a simple Blues backing track, and start seeing if you can make every note work in some way. You can! It’s doable! Every note is useable.

[@BillKurn]

This information just PISSES ME OFF!

[@halfbee7886]

Nice!

[@user-me5fh3yu1j]

ive heard this on the radio in the early 2010s

[@Targuz]

This sounds like an alternative version of top gear theme

[@theelderskatesman4417]

better than scales👍

[@twangthing]

The way of the househusband plays guitar haha

[@briannasplace2718]

Would love to see what the picking hand is doing as well.

[@ToriS61910]

[@klorand]

Thanks, goddamit! 🤬🙏

[@maxpayne4129]

Nice👍

[@EdSalisbury-u3e]

And then... * Use approach notes (q. v.) * Suspensions * Chromatic runs linking things * Enclosures - approaching above & below Throw in rhythmic variations, chord/melody, playing with others... now, you're starting to *play*, and it's such a gas. IYKYK

[@kaaiplayspiano7200]

Now let's do it in another position!

[@dehasim]

Nice way to make people use scales without noticing, great video, i wish i didnt suck

[@jestemwojtek8741]

Yes

[@ViciousKid77]

that's basically how to play any iron maiden solo ever

[@michaelmendillo7513]

Pretty damn cool ! Lol😅😅😅😅

[@gcleeter2261]

This sounds like a muse song

[@Sensei.shonuff]

I saw the thumbnail for this and I'm just here to say that's what she said

[@Hungrykittynomnom]

Im gonna run to you chords😂😂😂

[@matissmelbergs2584]

broke my strings cant try this😅

[@Hazybunk]

Now just leave........ ok sir

[@HannahsMusicAndNovels]

So, from what I've gathered, triads are essentially just breaking down each note of a chord and playing it as a scale?

[@kimisingh7298]

Pretty much, chords, scales, triads as arpeggios are all the same because it’s a sequence of notes

[@HannahsMusicAndNovels]

@@kimisingh7298 Gotcha. Thanks! 💖

[@LowKickMT]

yes without the double notes you have in normal chords

[@MikeZSimale2024]

💪😎🤟

[@EviMlcak]

That sounds good. How would that sound on an acoustic guitar? I'm not into electrics anymore.

[@JustinTuchek]

🤯🤯

[@Henry24642]

Add a g to the end and u have bad piggies

[@iconprince4700]

Is it just me or is he not playing the full scale? Btw I have no clue about music theory and I'm very confused on the difference between the diagram and the chords.

[@Ahumanthatplaysbass]

Sounds like “Nicotine” by Panic at the disco

[@kylelemon4230]

I JUST LEFT

[@Ibanez927]

Strat or Tele I don’t know what to get I always thought Tele but I’ve changed but that tone on the Tele is too good

[@maxwellblakely7952]

I believe that particular Tele has noiseless pickups, so it’s not a traditional Tele sound. Somewhere in between single coils and humbuckers.

[@eross21]

awesome. what is the formula to find a triad

[@jasond626]

Tab would help this as couldn't work out which frets and notes you were playing..

[@jacobfoss8013]

i like how you trick us metal dudes into learning music theory by using distortion and grabbing our attention with some shit like, ew stinky scales. i appreciate it
