Vote on my next video!!
🕑 Added 2020-03-26 19:05:56 +0000 UTCHey guys!!! I'm gonna be making my next video after i finish teaching lessons on Skype here in a couple hours. I've got a LOT of cool ideas i wanna share, but i need help narrowing down what we will cover tomorrow!!!
We've got 2 options:
1: a deep dive look into some of the tiny details you missed in one of the most massive hair metal hits of yesteryear (similar to the "5 Thing You Never Noticed in Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love" video a while back)... IN THE STILL OF THE NIGHT, by Whitesnake!!!
OR!
2: something you all have been asking for FOREVER: How to play the ridiculous shreddy licks that you hear at the beginning of every This is Why You Suck at Guitar episode!
Which do you choose?! Either way, both will be covered eventually. Just need help deciding what to do today! Polling is open for 3 hours, so don't delay, vote today!

Yeah, maybe the old fifties version of "In the Still of the Night" I would love that one!
Been playing the guitar for around 25 years now (shock!!!!) and never had proper lessons. So after years of pretty much exclusive rhythm chugging in various bands, I've started to work on my improvisaion and lead technique a couple of months ago - and after trying various Youtube teachers, I chose YOU to be my teacher of choice (not sure if that's an honor or not though...). Been doing your 30-minute alternate picking workout regularly for about two weeks now and I notice more improvement than I had in the past 10 years. Love it! One very basic thing that I'd like to see in an upcoming video would be a TIWYSAG "Your fret hand technique sucks!" or something like that. I notice that I'm often unsure if my hand/thumb placement is correct or is in fact limiting me to proceed. I also have a hard time with the correct use of bendings - so I don't have any real clue when it makes sense to use bendings when improvising in a scale. It looks so easy and fluent when others do it, so I guess that there are some basics behind it to make it more understandable.
