In fact, it makes you look ugly inside you heart, not to mention actual good guitarists never need to talk shit to prove they're good, only the shittiest ones needs to.

    *btw* , just to clear stuff up:
    The guy started doing this back in '02, and called it (Swybrid)
    Tosin's style is a bit different, and more harp-like.
    They both use *the same name* for *slightly different* things.
    The two styles likely convergently evolved, there's no stealing. The intended effects are completely different.

  • @alanlandy5347
    @alanlandy5347 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Good Evening, Let me say a few things on your behalf.......I'm happy and glad that you made this video! I've seen some people make remarks of, it might take 480hrs of practice, or takes too long for techniques, but let me interject here.... I'm 57, started real lessons at the age of six, went thru 3 years of that, then many more years of different styles....Let me say that the method of guitar teaching back in the 1960's and early 70's was to keep you coming back and paying the teacher.........Folks, to become a very good guitar player (to some amazement) it does NOT take years and years. If you have simplified techniques such as what Mr. Harrison is showing here and use them each time you play, you will grasp this and more in a very short time... Now I'm not saying all of you will become a guitar legend, or that your spouse may not rip the guitar from your hands and give you the lump of Knowledge upon your shiny little noodle.....But I will say it will make playing much easier, much more fun, and just maybe, start you on a new technique or two.... try it for yourselves and see.... Well Done Mr Harrison, well Done Sir!

  • @abcrx32j
    @abcrx32j 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    The term already exist and it's applied by Tosin Abasi for the combination of sweep picking and hybrid picking, however he uses it for sweep arpeggios that need to skip strings. Now, your approach covers two string sweeps, which opens even more possibilities for the technique and that's really great. I basically wanted to say that there's another version of the idea with the same name.

    Yeah I agree, all the time you have to think "how can I buy me some time to allow me to change string/position". I do this as a also play bass and I play with the pick and fingers. Add in the mix slurring up and down a semi tone (note enclosure) using open notes as an alternative to the fingered ones. Things get a bit sporty. Great technique

    I know this is old, but I just ran across it. I was surprised to find that the most difficult aspect of this for me seems to be doing an upstroke on the B string following by the pluck on the E. For me it just feels so much more natural to do a downstroke before a pluck because I've always done it that way, but that simply won't work here.

      Garsed don’t sweep but he’s the best in the world at what he does do: LEGATO. I took lessons from him at GIT in ‘98

      Marshall Harrison - Guitarist oh ! I see, hybrid and sweep. Didn’t have my coffee this morning. Sorry. Very much enjoyed the video. Wish I was 20 years old again so I could have more time with this great stuff. I know it takes time to be proficient. Thank you master Swybrid! Brett seems like a swell guy.

    I kind of do the same thing, albeit not as effectively, but it's only cause I'm too lazy to work on picking. I think this style of picking would match with how I pick already, so thanks a bunch good sir!

    I just subbed to your Channel. I'm definitely going to practice this technique. I absolutely love it. I just started a TH-cam Channel. I started playing guitar again and love Paul Gilbert. I have a small Recording/Practice Studio. Keep up all the great work.

    Interesting guitar- I think he put the Ibanez neck, and custom pickups on ‘at. Sick axe overall. Love the combo. Fits the theme too

    • @Swybryd-Nation
      @Swybryd-Nation  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks but it’s No Ibanez at all: it’s a stock guitar from Kiesel Guitars called the “JB” headless. In honor of Jason Becker

    This sounds like you could play parts written using tapping without actually tapping. And I don't mean the overwhelming speed only, throwing in the fingertip every now and then gives you more of a soft/liquid sound than crazy fast alternate/sweep picking using the plectrum only.

    MARSHALL:
    If I was just walking around and I saw you doing this at Summer NAMM, I would immediately stop and just stare at you playing while my jaw was on the floor for like 7 hours.
    THE FLUIDITY is insane.
    I've been meaning to get this technique down for a while since when I first stumbled upon you transposing Tony Banks Genesis licks to guitar a few years back.
    Right now if I REALLY warm-up, I can sound like a sloppy Paul Gilbert. Mastery of SWYBRID would help clean that up considerably.
    And you get the best of both worlds with this with the legato of sweeping and the articulation of just a wee bit of fingerstyle in there. It's a delectable fusion of picking techniques, and widely applicable too. 🤌
    KEEP ROCKIN'! 🤘🎸

  • @Dreamdancer11
    @Dreamdancer11 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thats just flawless....so if i understand it correctly what you do is sweep when you can but when you end up with the pick going in the opposite direction you hybrid.

    • @Theosis78

      I say Marshall was the first developing this technique to perfection (bye bye Tosin) and coining the term Swybryd picking.

  • @PDXguitarfreak
    @PDXguitarfreak 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Very cool, I'm a looking forward to trying this out (still at work, so no guitar in front of me LOL). I'm just wondering if it will be comfortable with the right hand/arm while playing standing up, as opposed to sitting where the guitar tends to be up high (like a jazz dude would) and easier to play in general. I might be over thinking it :)
