Thanks Sensei... Perfect tutorial...

[@guitarmastery]

You're welcome :)

Ive always said that music flows thru me and my entire body. I was blessed with perfect rhythm. And have found it to better than most drummers. So everbody fallows me..(like Keith Richards) and its beautiful..

[@RebekahAllen-zd8ko]

This is something I struggle with. I’ve noticed that if I just play along to a click track, or a full drum backing track, I can stay in time. But when I get rid of the audible click and just use my foot, everything falls apart.

Then you'll know what to practice in the future 😊👍

[@tonymartino7892]

Thank you Claus!

[@guitarmastery]

My pleasure! 😊

[@Hiro.the.God.]

I was just going through this today! I knew the chords and I knew the words, but I kept playing it until I could do both on time! I agree with you 100%.

[@blakjack3053]

I agree. Tapping to the beat, moving to the rhythm whilst I'm playing or even just listening, comes naturally to me, like it's rooted deep within my soul.

I'm practicing classical etudes, this is a big help, thanks clause :)

[@guitarmastery]

Happy to help 😊 Have fun practicing!

You are absolutely correct. I've been playing guitar and bass for over 30 years. When I first began at the age of 12, I had a guitar teacher who was phenomenal. From day one, he told me to always tap my foot along with every thing I play. I hated having to do that because that's not what I signed up for I wanted to rock out. But I did what he told me and years later When I went into the studio To record my first record, having that skill to keep time and play in the pocket was more beneficial to me than almost anything else

[@guitarmastery]

Amazing! Thanks for sharing your story 🙌

[@Sandy-qg1mb]

Get that damn foot tapping. You and one other guitar teacher I’ve had, drilled this into me. It took me a few months of extreme focus to get it down, but man did it make playing so much more enjoyable. Thanks again for the great instruction!

[@guitarmastery]

That's amazing! Thanks for sharing 😊

[@langstarjarain2622]

Thanks you 😄

[@alancosens]

Ha ha. We have an epidemic of social media shredders with poor rhythm.

[@guitarmastery]

haha :)

[@TheRyanlehr]

I can play in time but im having trouble singing in time. I have speech problems along with a lot of nerve damage that make it hard for me to keep up even just talking sometimes. Maybe i should work on singing in time by itself as im really working on being able to sing while i play.

[@dereksutcliffe7321]

Good luck. You'll get there. it's awesome to hear your story and not giving up just because of something being a challenge.

[@guitarmastery]

You got this! Good luck. Don't give up 😊🙌

[@rarebear6889]

Hello Claus. When it comes to improvising should you be able to know which scale degree you're on at all times? I've practiced the scale degrees by playing the major scale in sequences for many hours, but when I play along with slow jam tracks I try to identify what note I'm landing on as I play but it's too fast for me to keep up. I thought maybe it would be a good idea to know the scale degrees as you play so that you can see where the triad and arpeggios are within the scale without just memorizing the spots they are in. or if I'm playing and I think that a 6th interval would sound nice. sorry I don't know if this is the wrong way to go about it

[@rockandrollmd541]

My bandmate has a very bad internal metronome. Whenever the drums and cymbals disappear, his speed gets erratic. I've suggested practicing with a metronome, but he doesn't want to. 😑

[@guitarmastery]

Thanks!

[@jessicastrickler2499]

Good luck tapping to djent.. and don’t tell me that’s not music. Lol

[@isaiahmarquez9717]

Djent is percussion. Change my mind….

I'm only watching this video to make sure that the answer to the question in the thumbnail is correct! The number one rule to guitar is..... There are no rules!😊
