Time Crystal (Outro)
🕑 Added 2020-12-10 16:44:22 +0000 UTCToday we will be looking at the outro riff from Time Crystal.
This riff requires some palm mutes, pull offs/hammer ons, and a very big 5 fret stretch as well. It's a great way to practice any or all of those techniques.

Definitely giving this a try! I so dig the hard rock tone too!
It's not effortless for me! I definitely flub it a few times in the video.
If you can't do the stretch, play the 8th fret note on the next string up, 3rd fret. It's the same note!

That big stretch though. You're a sick man, Phibis

I had to give it a try and was surprised to find it was just barely doable! In isolation and not casually in a song, but definitely proof of concept :D Grab your guitar and try it, you might surprise yourself!

It's absolutely wild how different this one sounds in isolation! If I had to guess what sort of song it went with, I would not expect something like Time Crystal--it was definitely one of my first favorites when I started listening to y'all, though :) I went to try the 8-to-3 pulloff just now, just to see if I could--and I could, barely, once. How many eons do you suppose til my hands are stretchy enough to do it that effortlessly? Haha
My hand already aches from just looking at that 5 fret stretch
