Love the fact that you teaching us that playing guitar is so much more then just pressing a bunch of notes together.Every single note should advertise where we emotionally are in that moment.I thank you for that.
Honestly I can spend months just going through and practicing all the stuff in this video. Working through and connecting with lvl 2 currently. Can’t wait to keep exploring. Hoping I will that blue guitar 🤘
I've learnt and played all my life the one finger per fret style, so not used to playing whole steps with two consecutive fingers, that doesn't feel natural at all! Great video anyhow
So helpful! And such gorgeous sounds. More than any other YT instructor this is like having a personal teacher. Your enthusiasm for the music and the instrument is the most important thing in giving inspiration and motivation. Thanks so much.
Timo fujita also gives very Deep informations and Concepts he just expect a Little more Knowledge. But Rotem is gold for the pocket of your Guitar Voice
Only a friend would share this great training. thank you. I play acoustic a lot and have a sold body electric, .. I guess I need to do the solid. It would be nice (some day) to use a semi or hollow ... the latter I don't have... I have a godin synth (not using it yet) nylon... maybe that. great inspiration ...
Great levels! Level 10 is hot. To really internalize the fonction of a note, while practicing scales, or stuff, I mostly refer to numbers related to the fonction instead of the notes themselves. It's like a numeral solfège!
Level 10. Because it's a good sounding ear training and a wonderful exercise! Thank you very much for spending all the effort making this first class videos!
Really helpful, thanx! And BTW, for what purpose does the red rubber ribbon wrapped around the neck of guitar serve? It would be awesome if u made a video about it!
great lesson, one of the things im doing when associating feelings with sounds is trying to picture a movie moment happening, and the score being the same feeling as the sound im making. For those particular sounds in level 7 i pictured a shellshocked slow motion world war two soldier looking round to find his squad are all dead (think saving private ryan shellshock scene). Im hoping this association method will pay off in the long run but what do you guys do to associate. Any more tips?
i‘m doing something similar to the major and minor chords, like E major is for me a sunrise and E minor is like a sunset, i also associate it with a colour, in this case it is yellow. Or an F Major is for me a green „friendly“ forest and a F minor is a „darker“ forest and also associated with the green colour. So i‘m doin this with all 7 main notes and they got all their unique feeling for me, it is like im seeing some pictures in my head and some feeling that i get from it. this is what music is for me, an expression of feelings and pictures that evaluates in what you hear. Sorry for my bad english, maybe this helps someone :)
I have just one question :) what should I learn and how should I practice it (ok,two questions) be able to making riffs and solos like in Nocturnus - Alter Reality song?
You have to be very careful when playing legato. If you are playing 3 notes per string then you must avoid hearing the 123-123-123 sound. Each note must be super even so there is no beat on the 4th, 7th ect..Also don't mix hammers with pull offs. These have a different sounds and so it cannot be called legato. Using pivots and turnarounds is the way to go just like it is played on piano.
Nah, that's somewhat incorrect. You can practice 3 nps stuff with a triplet feel (1,2,3), or with a quarter note feel (1,2,3,4). They both have a use, and it's not wrong to practice a triplet feel. (Just don't get stuck in it, and be able to break away and do the same with quarter notes, sixteenth notes, etc.) It has a use. Also, obviously the term "legato" has become synonymous with the use hammer ons, but that's not really what it means. It's more of a modern slang definition used by guitarists. There are plenty of amazing players that play combining hammers and pull offs, and do perfect legato (Tom Quayle, if you don't believe me). And yes, it's true they both have a different sound, but it's not wrong, or less "legato" (if you have proper technique). That's like saying legato isn't legato if you use picked notes, because a picked note and a hammer on have a different attack. You can play legato phrases, and literally pick every note, and you can play staccato phrases that are all hammer ons. The technical definition of what legato truly means is that there is no space or silence in between the notes (and the opposite is true for staccato, meaning there is a space/silence between each note.) That being said, you can use hammers ons, pull offs, and picking to do either staccato or legato phrasing.
Es una pena sabiendo la cantidad de contenido de calidad que hay en ingles, en cualquier rubro. Yo aprendi viendo videos justamente, obviamente con el paso de muchos años y con ayuda de los subtitulos autogenerados (Obviamente si ya tenes una base de ingles basica, si no es mucho mas jodido). Data como la de canales como este no los encontras en yt hispano ni ahi
Yeah I understand, cuz I just wasted my time reading your comment jeez. a top player in the world gives you these lessons for free and you complain wow.... Please climb back on your spaceship.
Huge credits to Rotem for keep making these 10-20+ minutes videos in todays fast-paced world, so much more comprehensive and informative

Man, and that is only based on one scale :) Endless opportunities to learn! Thanks!

First time i heard you...with Paul Davids. You play awesome 👍🏽.
Discovered your channel a few days ago. Love your stuff.
Thank you!!

I had no idea what to practice today, but this video definitely dispelled my doubts, love ya!
Thank you Rotem
Love your channel Rotem!
If possible can you make a video where you work us through the mechanics of that insane guitar and tone? :D
What The XHariep Guitarist said. Exactly!
i like your room nice plant! and the guitar sound awesome!
Level 2 made my jaw drop.... practicing diatonic 3rds.. amazing.
🧚♀️
Most informative, inspirational and daunting in equal measure.✌️
Great lesson. A beautiful sound. Not just speed. We need more of that in jazz. Thank you.
You are teaching me HOW to practice and Iam learning to take my time and MAKE music!
Beautiful
6ths and 10's are so beutiful and relaxing. Cool to contrast with dissonance.
Rotem - have you ever done a "this is my guitar journey" video? I'd love to hear your story with the guitar.
Thank you for the video. Especially Level 4 was something new for me. It helped me a lot. Please make video about your lovely sound and effects👍
love your reverb sound
and
best major scale lesson I came across so far, thank you
This is awesome. Very helpful indeed. Level 9 examples sounded really cool with the b2 and b3, somewhat like Indian ragas
Truth :)
Wow, RS always delivers! This was a great lesson at any level
9:32 It's almost Zen level of peacefulness to play those 6th-s at 2 in the morning, you know
thank you sir!
Only a friend would share this great training. thank you. I play acoustic a lot and have a sold body electric, .. I guess I need to do the solid.

particularly like the interval practices.
Hi Rotem, thank you very much for your suggestions. They are always great, well and sensitively explained.
Thanks again Udo
Excellent Rotem, I will add this to my practice.
Great levels! Level 10 is hot. To really internalize the fonction of a note, while practicing scales, or stuff, I mostly refer to numbers related to the fonction instead of the notes themselves. It's like a numeral solfège!
A king
singing is the key! thanks - a light bulb moment for me
level 7 blew me away :o
which level is ya fav?
Level 4
is there a level -1 for us noobs?
All of them. Lot of work 😊
I love your approach to guitar. Thanks so much for this!!
Level 10. Because it's a good sounding ear training and a wonderful exercise! Thank you very much for spending all the effort making this first class videos!
Please can you do a lesson on inversions of shell(or spread triads) 7th chords
Love it!!
Really helpful, thanx! And BTW, for what purpose does the red rubber ribbon wrapped around the neck of guitar serve? It would be awesome if u made a video about it!
toller aufbau

Sorry for my bad english, maybe this helps someone :)
Wow. This is going to take timmmme
Did you ever try to practice without making the string screetch noise? I tried a little and it's tough!
I have just one question :)
what should I learn and how should I practice it
(ok,two questions)
be able to making riffs and solos like in
Nocturnus - Alter Reality song?
What is that black thing between the pickups?
Hello! How do you can hold the tone? 11:55 for example. It's a pedal? 🤗 Thx
I think he commented in another video it it's a "Boomerang/ Freeze" pedal. Hope that helps.
@@adrianmay_multiinstrumentalist Thank you! 🙏
When you played the 16th notes you alternate picked it Ascending but switched to hybrid picking Descending.
level 10: chord notes 1,5,3octave higher, leavin out the 7th. with the 7th it will be level 20
Wow, what amp are you using?
I see a Headstrong in the background, so basically a Fender clone of some sort. That is if he’s playing through that one.

quisiera aprovechar al máximo todos tus vídeos, pero no entiendo el inglés :'(

Me gustaba mas con el corcho... XD
Tsssss.... I just wasted my time today.. I thought this is good.. Doesn't seem to be that way.. This is just a basic interval. Tssss.
Yeah I understand, cuz I just wasted my time reading your comment jeez. a top player in the world gives you these lessons for free and you complain wow.... Please climb back on your spaceship.
Amazing
🙏🙏🙏
Amazing
