You're right about consistent practice and time. I fumbled through your cascading pentatonic lesson for 6 months and I can finally do it, it just takes patience and time, sometimes a LOT of time
I just love you man. That might sound wrong. But amongst so many many guitarists out there on TH-cam, You stand above all when it comes to teaching how to shred and along with all those motivating statements you give. May god bless you man. I wish there were more like you.
there a lot of guitar teachers on youtube and only a few great ones. You my friend are easily one of the best and far younger than most. Thanks for the quality instructional videos.
Thanks Ross, I have been trying not to suck as much lately and this should help. I have been playing for a long ,long time and I never picked up on so many these common little things until youtube. So sincerely thanks.
Nice 1 pal!! Absolutely love it mate!! So glad I found u. Those licks I have been needing to find cheers buddy!! But what's the picking hand doing is it like a sweep! Or a alternate picking
Here we are in 2024 and I'm just seeing this video. Learning these licks now, and they still sound good, proves these licks do indeed stand the test of time. Stick with it guys and keep jamming. Thank you, Ross, for these videos and your words of encouragement.
working my way thru bulletproof now glad i had some harmony background in college. Ross is numero uno in youtube teachers and all his other vids are great too.
I kind of understand different scales. So when do a lick, you can use any of the notes within that scale? Finally, what happens when you need to change keys?
I look at Music as I would an apprentice (ur choice).In the start you do the very basic.Gradually making the journey & gaining new confidence & seeing what goes where.So I see across the board if you put in the effort it will pay off.W
Ross, great lesson! Question, on the first lick, would it be bad technique to do a hammer on and pull of on 15 to 12 on the B string? I keep having a tendency to hammer on and pull off instead of picking 15 on the B string and then pulling off.
Awesome Ross ! You are a guitar master 👍...How could I play fast licks ? Scales( I only know scales!) , modes , other method ? Thanks for your answer and help, kind regards from France, TAKE CARE 🙏. Bélo
Hey man! I love your videos so much! Very inspiring player. I’ve got a random question for you. What size is that desk right behind you? Mainly looking at the length
Great lesson and video Ross! You're right about the learning of difficult things. With patience (and the right technique) allmost everything is possible in the end. Especialy these cliche licks can help beginner guitarists get motivated and set reachable goals. 👍
Glen Tipton of Judas Priest used that first lick on the middle section of Victim of Changes, he'd often play it the way you demonstrated during live shows.
On the first lick, I'm can't get the last pulloff note to ring loudly, especially the faster I play. I have to pick it individually to really hear it which slows the lick down.
You learn to very quickly switch your finger power off to the finger doing the bend,,if it's still stiff and taught you don't have enough hand energy to pull off cleanly,,if you keep all the fingers you need for a riff stiff and uptight these licks will be hard to play repetitively,,,transfer hand energy between your fingers as you need it ,hope that helps mate
I can play these licks but my stamina is lacking . As I age it's important to do warm ups . I find myself noodling on things that don't challenge me . This video made me aware I need to take practicing more seriously , Thanks Ross !
Getting that level of sustain and saturation from an amp/pedal combo that isn't a Jcm 800 probably isn't possible, but if anyone has any ideas, please let me know.
Great suggests, you really made an useful video for a beginner who is "desperate" ahahha. When i was a beginner i was like:"oh, god, there's no way that i'll ever be as fast as Slash", but as you said:"keep practicing and challenge yourslef and the results will come" hell yes, i started 8 years ago playing guitar and now i'm at the 5th year of conservatory (almost 6 :D), and i could never imaged to reach this level, so to all of you guys out there keep workin' hard and push yourself through your limit :D Great video Ross, you are really a good teacher (and a very good musician of course) Keep going man :D
So there is still hope for me. I really need to hear this kind of stories. Sometimes I feel like I hit a brick wall and I can't get any better or faster. Sometimes I feel like that I just don't have what it takes. This motivates me. thank you sir.
karym willemsen keep going man! Keep practicing, studying, and playing songs, and one day you'll realize how hard work and passion can give to you! Have a nice day, and always believe in yourself! Good luck!! ✌
Thank you for your nice words. I really appreciate it. Good luck to you to my friend I hope you finish your studies on the conservatory with great results. ✌🏼✌🏼
Once you've practised it mate the stenght builds up in your wrist and fingers then these licks go into your muscle memory and you can play them without even thinking about it,,,I've never really broken it down but you transfer all your hand power only into the finger that's in use ,as soon as you've done the bend you mentioned its jobs done,,you relax that finger and you switch of the power and it goes to the next finger that's working,,,it's an economy of hand energy so you don't stiffen up ,,,all this happens so fast and automatically after you keep practising,,,,start slow build up strength you'll get it !
You're right about consistent practice and time. I fumbled through your cascading pentatonic lesson for 6 months and I can finally do it, it just takes patience and time, sometimes a LOT of time
Fight the good fight
I just love you man. That might sound wrong. But amongst so many many guitarists out there on TH-cam, You stand above all when it comes to teaching how to shred and along with all those motivating statements you give. May god bless you man. I wish there were more like you.
Thank you so much bro. I really appreciate the kind words 🙏🙏🙏
Say you love him too@@RossCampbellGuitarist
i love you both hehe@@MegaManX7
I think it's been long enough to say, he didn't return the love...
there a lot of guitar teachers on youtube and only a few great ones. You my friend are easily one of the best and far younger than most.
Thanks for the quality instructional videos.
Thank you very much!
I second that
Ive been looking for a video like this for weeks. Awesome, thank you
Very nice! More of these licks please! Thanks!
00:01
Hey could you make a lesson about soloing over Changes (for example in a Jazz setting)??
Keep up the great work!
Thanks Ross, I have been trying not to suck as much lately and this should help. I have been playing for a long ,long time and I never picked up on so many these common little things until youtube. So sincerely thanks.
Glad it was helpful!
Great video and thank you Ross! Is it possible you can show us the tab for the opening Solo? Would love to learn it! Thank you!!
Great simple lesson friend. I Will try. Thank you.
Ross, many thanks for this lesson, just what I needed 😊
Good video Ross. Lick 2 is performed by Iron Maiden's Adrian Smith in his solo in The Trooper. These licks appear everywhere!
The first guitar solo I ever learned! Well spotted ;)
Nice 1 pal!! Absolutely love it mate!! So glad I found u. Those licks I have been needing to find cheers buddy!! But what's the picking hand doing is it like a sweep! Or a alternate picking
Awesomeness! Thanks Mate. Very useful. In addition great motivator! Cheers Dallas
Thanks for the precious tips and encouragement. Cheers from Indonesia.
Here we are in 2024 and I'm just seeing this video. Learning these licks now, and they still sound good, proves these licks do indeed stand the test of time. Stick with it guys and keep jamming. Thank you, Ross, for these videos and your words of encouragement.
Thank you so much for this lick and also for the tips and motivation.
Just listening to that first rip when the vid starts. A+++
Love the strat bro sounds beautiful
Terima kasih atas ilmunya/teknikny semoga bermanfaat
Opening with Sweet Child soloing got me hooked
Exactly, after hearing it ,I began to learn this
I love when people don’t wast time talking at the beginning. Like play something and I’ll judge if I want to learn it or not. Keep it up sir
You should explain the fingering too bro. Its really important to got the right picking technique to achieve a good tempo
Ross Campbell. What pickups are those on your guitar?
Could you do a lesson on picking hand positioning please and how to stay relaxed
working my way thru bulletproof now glad i had some harmony background in college. Ross is numero uno in youtube teachers and all his other vids are great too.
Up or downstroke patterns important? Looks like in beginning youre doing all downstrokes. But incorporate upstroke as the speed increases.
I kind of understand different scales. So when do a lick, you can use any of the notes within that scale? Finally, what happens when you need to change keys?
Great licks made easy.... Thanks so much
great lesson.! ty for the vid.
Hi Ross, great video! what’s the picking patten for lick one please. So I can practice doing it fast. Thanks mate
What is your pick hand doing on all three licks? Down down up?
3:33 the iron maiden lick
Dang. That was cool. I am going to practice this. Thank you very much.
Your a great player and teacher thanks so much!
Thank You!
What strings and what gauge are you using?
Great lesson, thanks so much. And thanks for mentioning the importance of confidence (or lack of)!
I wish I could give you six extra likes - one for each of the licks plus their open positions counterparts!
Many thanks for this video.
Thank you!
I was searching... and this was the video! Thanks
Awesome, thanks John!
Great lesson, mate. Some classic sounds!
Typical 1970s Michael Schenker :)
Ross is there any tips for pulling off but under a fast speed, I can't manage to get the flick motion when the speed is fast
What’s the bridge pickup you have on there? I see the middle and neck are those DiMarzio Cruisers.
Great material to learn, Ross, thanks! Like SRV a little.
I look at Music as I would an apprentice (ur choice).In the start you do the very basic.Gradually making the journey & gaining new confidence & seeing what goes where.So I see across the board if you put in the effort it will pay off.W
Thank you so much! I been looking for a lesson on this riff.
Great stuff. This is really, really handy. A short library of these more "essential" licks in different styles/modes, etc. would be ace.
Ross, great lesson! Question, on the first lick, would it be bad technique to do a hammer on and pull of on 15 to 12 on the B string? I keep having a tendency to hammer on and pull off instead of picking 15 on the B string and then pulling off.
Awesome Ross ! You are a guitar master 👍...How could I play fast licks ? Scales( I only know scales!) , modes , other method ? Thanks for your answer and help, kind regards from France, TAKE CARE 🙏. Bélo
Hey man! I love your videos so much! Very inspiring player. I’ve got a random question for you. What size is that desk right behind you? Mainly looking at the length
awesome awesome lesson. much thanx.
what's your watch brand , i like it?
Good one, mate 🎸
Great video Ross! You fucking rock bro and your teaching style is impressive
Excellent. Thank you:-)
Unlike fashion a great guitar lick never goes out of style.
2:33
I can do the licks! But is dificult to relax hands. I have to practice that. Thanks
Thanks
Hey what pickups do you use. Which you think have a lot of attack?
Ross you already changed the pickups on your custom shop ? Why ? What kind are they ?
Really cool video Ross, would like to see more of these licks and tricks. Thank you for sharing. Regards!
Thanks for the video...and as others have inquired... what pickups are those?
Great lesson and video Ross! You're right about the learning of difficult things. With patience (and the right technique) allmost everything is possible in the end. Especialy these cliche licks can help beginner guitarists get motivated and set reachable goals. 👍
Exactly what I was looking for, and on top of that, taught by a handsome gentleman!
Thanks for this quality lesson
Really clear and perfect thank you
Thanks!
good lesson
Great lesson!!
Thank you so much!
Thanks cool little lesson there!
@Ross Campbell im trying to access the tutorial tabs via the provided links above, but many of the links don't work. How can I access?
Glen Tipton of Judas Priest used that first lick on the middle section of Victim of Changes, he'd often play it the way you demonstrated during live shows.
Nice one, this helps alot. Very informative.
On the first lick, I'm can't get the last pulloff note to ring loudly, especially the faster I play. I have to pick it individually to really hear it which slows the lick down.

its easy to learn with you man
Great video and really useful! Thank you!... Do you remember the size of the strings?
Weird question but can you do one with repeating licks in a major key?
I'm sure I could! I'll take that suggestion on board.
Nice Strat. Fiesta red?
Great sound!
I can play these licks but my stamina is lacking . As I age it's important to do warm ups . I find myself noodling on things that don't challenge me . This video made me aware I need to take practicing more seriously , Thanks Ross !
Me too, thanx
That opening lick was massive
thank you
Awesome
What gauge strings do you use?
Is that colour fiesta red
Thanks for this

Very good video
Sweet, Ross. 👌
What pickups are that on your strat?
I asked the same thing. The neck looks like a
Do Marzio Cruiser
great content
What pickups you have on your guitar?
subbed!
really well done, very helpful, great work brother
sweet
Like fine wine, this video also stands the test of time
How do you get your tone?????????????????????
When the tempo is fast are those bends still full step? Seems like when the speed is increased full bends may take up to much time. Thx
