I remember when the line 6 spider IV amp came out and everybody had one with a Schecter guitar. I saw more sweep picking and shredding than I knew existed and became excited of music coming back! Then I realized, thats ALL they could do. Couldnt play a riff along with a drummer, much less a metranome, and eventually guitar in general seemed to be "exposed" and Pop music took over. I hope one day guitar and good music makes a comeback. For those keeping it alive, youre not alone!

I had a breakthrough last night and just let loose on the higher notes.12th fret and lower on the neck. . Got into the zone and found the notes that connect and just freestyles for over an hour. My buddy passed away about 2 years ago and his wife gave me his Acoustic. I have been playing that for about 1-2 hours a night. Last week I broke my Stratocaster back out after 10 years in the closet. Bought a Boss GT-1 and I can’t put the guitar down now. 3-4 hours a night now. So many melodies to create. Just sitting creating a 30 second loop of a finger/strum pattern then laying that sweet solo down over the loop. It’s starting to sound like real music. Not that the acoustic doesn’t but this has so much more fun to it. I need more experienced players to play with.

One of the first things I learned from my upper 90s guitar teacher was scale sequencing and the pentatonic scales. It was a lot of fun to learn. One of the cooler aspects of it was having both audio and video recordings made by various musicians I admired to refer to as I was learning it.

Robert, it's funny how you mentored the picking order, I used to worry about that (outside vs inside picking). But, recently I was noticing that when I picked my way through a series of runs it didn't matter which way I did it, in terms of speed or ease. I guess I've gotten better without noticing, because I do remember trying to learn alternate picking, and having to think about it! That's a nice feeling! Also, I've already been doing what you're calling "sequencing," where I practice a run in segments like how you're teaching. But, I still don't consider myself fast at all. I'm still working on smooth. But I am doing it smooth! Yeah, it's a nice feeling to see progress!

This is a great short lesson. I rarely use a pick, and tend to play this type of lick using my right thumb and middle finger, with lots of pull-offs and hammer ons. I also picture the chord shape as well as the scale box, and aim to hit the notes in the chord. Regarding the note positions in this video, I find myself getting to the first "B", but instead of going back on myself from string 5 fret 12 to string 4 fret 9, I slide my left ring finger up to string 5 fret 14, moving into the next box shape in the scale. Then I bar across the 12th fret with my left index finger, and play the remaining notes on frets 12, 14 and 15, hammering, pulling and picking across the strings. The notes are the same, but without the aggressive pick attack, the end result has a different feel. As Robert says, find what works best for you.

I remember when I discovered this. It changed my playing for fills and building tension. Bach was a genius at sequences. Check out a few fugues. Good job on this. But I still chuckle at how rock players will use string names and fret position rather than just call out the actual note. But I get it. It took years of classical playing and sight reading to get all the names learned. Worth the work.

Bought this - great lesson. The thing I didn't know I was missing but was, like an itch I wasn't quite sure how to scratch. There's always 2 quotes spring to mind about situations such as these and learning something new. One was from Donald Rumsfeld (I don't agree with him as a person nor his stance on the war but his quote is great), along the lines of "there are known knowns, there are known unknowns and there are unknown unknowns". This falls into the latter - I wasn't even aware that I didn't know it. I've butted up against it when looking at other things ("Bonamassa Eric Johnson style licks!") but didn't know they were "sequence licks". Makes it all so simple now! Which brings me to my other favourite quote (Kahlil Gibran) "The obvious is that which isn't seen until someone expresses it simply" Cheers Robert - been practising these all weekend and it's great, really inspiring!

Hello and thank you for the video. I was hooked by the use of sequences in your video title. A method taught to me by my teach in my second or third lesson. He gave me pentatonic and modal positions and then said learn the 3s, 4s and 6 note sequences and you I will blow people way. And, when I play the 6 note sequences, it blows people's minds. But he taught it to me in 30 seconds. You are spending a 10 minute video on it. You have really complicated the technique. Here's the scale. Play three notes down, then start on the 2nd note and play 3 notes down, and then start on what was your third note and play three notes down and continue this pattern through the box shape or modal position. Now try it playing four notes... six notes...fawking simple. Discussing outside or inside picking was the part of your video I thought was great to mention. I have never specifically taken an I Teresa ibto dissecting my picking through this practice becUse I have always just focused on the metronome's tempo and getting my number of notes evenly picked within the beat. You may have set me on a path that will change my playing. Thank you.

This is cool; we were on a 7 month deployment to the Indian Ocean. Guy on my ship (aircraft carrier) sold me his Carvin DC-150. Another guy showed me Train Kept A Rollin'. Since then, whatever I do on guitar I taught myself. I also taught myself bass. I've done well in music. Hundreds of gigs. Borgata Event Center, Hard Rock in Atlantic City. But now I want to learn your courses just for me. So, I think your course would be perfect for me. Thank you Robert.

THANK YOU! See so many limiting guitar lessons about picking and so forth that more or less suggest or demand you HAVE to start every alternate picked idea with a down stroke and HAVE to use outside picking. There are pitfalls to both, but I find that inside picking and starting with an upstroke works better for me. If you ever find yourself in a "pickfall" (a picking pitfall) just add a slur (some hammer ons/pull offs, a slide, etc) and you'll be fine. Or learn to adjust your pick slanting to get around it.

I'm a beginner, and that was real helpful. Usually i just go down but never back up again doing scales if that makes sense. I've been messing with guitar on and off for years and just got stuck playing the same things, so after lockdown, yer i know, i was gaming mostly threw that i decided to take my love of guitar to the next level, brought some stomp pedals for the muse and I'm just doing my thing but this time learning stuff like this. I've even started doing vids on my channel just for fun, but also I'll get round to how a beginner can sound pretty good with learning this kind of practice, I'm not a great guitarist by any means, i basically learned chords myself and learned what i didn't know was the pentatonic scale. In my mind there's no rules in guitar playing, obviously there's some, but you can shove on a overdrive pedal just use power chords and sound pretty good. I love Black Sabbath and since Iommi used alot of power chords Sabbaths riffs a pretty easy....ish lol. Good vid found it very very helpful. Cheers buddie. 👍

It’s also great to run up through all the different pentatonic boxes like starting at the 3rd fret in box 5 of the A pentatonic for the low E and A strings and then sliding to box 1 with the D and G string and then sliding up to box 2, etc. Great lesson and a great pattern to extend the scale or run up the fretboard. I find I hear runs/sequences like this in a lot of songs. Great content as always Robert 🤘🏼

Orchestral sequencing, the same thing, you can play a lot of them with two fingers... or two positions... with the non pivot finger actually using two fingers one to fret, and the other to strengthen and bolster the fretting finger... so it looks like two fingers stuck together, which compared to a lone finger can be super humanly strong... as it's two fingers... you'll see it more than you would think... Basically a hand with fingers all together moving in tandem.

That is so cool! I had just stumbled onto this hack six days ago! I was up on the 12 fret, working on 1st position minor pent. when I naturally moved down to the 5th position and working it when all of a sudden, I did that run and, !! WoW !! I just then realized I had been using the wrong shape for this run! Now I got it !

Man Rob, this takes me back to when I first got the Minor pentatonic scale under my fingers and used to exercise by coming up with this sort of thing! I went from daydreaming about how I'd love to wake up and magically play like Jimmy Page to thinking, ya know I kinda like the way _i'm_ starting to play. I think I can do this lead thing without some magical genie in a bottle type thing. I'm already playing stuff I never thought I had in me. I'd run through ascending and descending chromatic exercises moving a half step up, and after 3 halves switch to a higher string until I hit 12 and descend the same way until I was warmed up and then I'd jam along with the radio and a cable company in Miami had an option for DMX radio. 1,000 channels and a few dedicated to BLUES! I'd jam with Albert King, BB, Robert Johnson, John Lee Hooker and, then Rock along with classic rock, rock, pop radio using my new found minor pentatonic scale and, that combined with my love for singing I felt like I could be a Rock Star!! In my circle of friends we _all_ became Rock Stars but, in soundproofed mini storage units 🤣 This was fun for me bro, I'm feeling better after a bout with pneumonia and nostalgia kicked in. Thanks for this little trip down memory lane and, soon I'll be in shape enough to play this particular run. I'm on the mend but, my .09s are gonna' feel like .13s after a forced hiatus! Signing off bluesy , Rob Baker style 🎸🎶🎶🎶✌️❤️🤣🙏

that one is good and speaking of ACE he did a lot of 5 sequences in the repeated blues licks , Ace was also influenced by Skynard which was really popular when he was coming up Johnny Winter did this on "Ain't your Bussiness" off "Third Degree" as well A cool economy picking riff is the lead break to SATO RR.
