I am trying to start playing lead because I've always played rhythm and fancy a change, this series is going to be very helpful indeed! Can't wait to see what other artists you break down, cheers.
I look forward to that too, would love if you went through Inhale too if you get time and or like that song, I know for a fact I wont be able to play the sick shred bit just yet but I love the mad chops in that song.
That is an amazing series. Please make a similar one of Tarred and Feathered if you can. The series is really helpful. Just can't understand why do you have so few subscribers. Keep doing what you do. Love from India. LOL, seeing a lot of Indians here :)
+Mohit Nandanwar thanks for your suggestion! I will do one for that song as well. It just takes time since I am currently doing an internship and school. Good things come to those who wait. And thanks for believing in my channel! Much love from the Netherlands!
Great song studies man. You need more subs for the work you put into this. I've really hesitated attempting anything out of standard tuning, but I might give this a shot. Plini has been on my list for a while.
Thanks for your comment. It really means a lot to me! It's a slow grind but I do enjoy the process and being able to give something to people makes me happy. I understand what you mean, I too was the same with changing tuning. Nowadays I change tuning on the same guitar twice or three times a day! It's not always fun but I decided that I won't let it stop me learning from my favorite guitarists. Cheers!
Also noticed that you did one on CHON as well.. it seems we have similar tastes. I'm looking forward to going through these. I've tried a few CHON songs and they are really tough, but rewarding. I still haven't done one 100% through -- I'm not quite at that level yet.
I feel you. It's the first time for me learning CHON songs. So it really was an educational and rewarding experience to take a jab at their work. I hope to explore more of their music and post it here as guitar studies. And yes, they really are extremely tough to get down.
+acalora123 Hello there! Thanks a lot for the comment, I appreciate it. Some of it is done by ear and others are done by using guitar tabs/ playthroughs to pin point the notes.
Thank you Thank you for this. I learned Handmade Cities but simply could not "hear" this one. Thanks again. Any chance you will do a lesson for the rhythm track? there are still a few notes i cant find...
Hi! Are you planing on lessoning the rhythm guitars part? I bought the tab book for handmade cities and is amazing how accurate this video is agains the gp file but watching you play it help me even more than the tabs and gp. Now the rhythm parts seems trickier and watching the video were plini and aaron plays on naam, there differences from the official tab and the way they play rhythm parts live, the way they play make more sense than the tab book but ita hard to figure out what exactly thay are playing so i was wondering if demoing the rhythm parts is something you are planning to do, it would be great! Amazing lessons!
Thanks for watching! If you watch the following parts of this Plini song series I do cover some rhythms. Take a look at those first see if they help out. As for the rest of the rhythm section I might do lessons on them as well. I can't promise anything but I can add it to my list! It's true that what they play live can differ plenty from tabs out there. I looked at countless videos carefully to see how they play it. I am happy that I was able to help out! It's what I aim to do with these videos :)
Luminous Dark hi thanks for answering, i just finished watching the series! And its great to have someone explaining with so much detail how to play it, thank you very much! Do you think you could help me to figure out the intro rhythm? The part that goes from the begining chord to before the section that starts on part 4 of this series? I l know theres something wrong in the gpx files because they seem to play that part way easier than in the tabs Thanks!
Hi Carlos ! I have just started to transcribe Cascade, let's have a look and tell me if you find that helpfull ;-) Thanks th-cam.com/video/-BPO2PqaccM/w-d-xo.html
Hey there great video and thanks for all your content.. I always wanted to ask, if this is in altered tuning does Plini play it in the Mindset of a Standard tuning but in different tuning? like playing standard tuning shapes in different tuning? or play the shapes ion different tuning? Also hate to ask so much but could you also shed some light in what his modes or arpeggios he is using? cause i would love to STEAL *ahem* his ideas and his approach to playing guitar. I know i am asking so much but i cant seem to find any tutorials on how to play PLINI, CHON style. They sound so unique and getting an insight would be so vital. Thank you once again and take care.
You're welcome man! It always makes me happy to know I am helping other guitarists out. Don't worry! It's a pleasure to answer all of your questions. Almost all of his songs are played in a down tuning with the exception of one or two which are played in completely different unconventional tunings. For the most part, yes he plays everything as if it were in drop D standard tuning but then with an even lower tuning. So the chord shapes, riffs and solos can be played in drop D standard tuning but it would sound much higher of course. Plini's music is fairly happy, melodic and upbeat. I would say that he plays mostly in the MAJOR scale and moves his way around the different modes of the major scale. For more in depth information on the musical theory side I suggest viewing this video: th-cam.com/video/zc0674BhNoI/w-d-xo.html This guy made an amazing video on the various techniques and musical concepts that Plini uses. I think he can explain it much better than me. Hope this helps! Cheers!
Hi there ! Thanks for sharing this. I was thinking about doing the same guitar study for my french guitar channel but I was worrying about all the copyright stuff on TH-cam. Did you get some information about that before starting this series ? Very good work anyway !
+hack-ta-guitare thanks a bunch dude! I have had minimal trouble with copyright. Especially with bands like Chon and Plini. Since they are not mainstream pop music I have no trouble using parts of their music on my videos. For example, with Avenged Sevenfold I have had to share ad revenue with warner bros but that's because A7X is a fairly big metal band.
+Luminous Dark, thanks for your answer. Yeah, and when we are sharing those videos, we also share our love for those guitarists and make them known so it's fair enough but I contacted Plini to be 100% sure.
+hack-ta-guitare yes absolutely it's all about sharing that love for the music and guitarist and for others o have the ability to learn and play those songs that they love so much. Have you gotten a reply from Plini?
Hi! awesome video so far ! (i'm stuck at the beginning for now aha) sorry if you said this later in this video or in the others, but scale is that ? If you have any idea ? This would help me lot understanding the song! Thanks!
From what I can gather he uses a mix of Lydian, Mixolydian and Dorian scales. I actually don't know this for sure! I did some digging for you. Checkout Reddit, they have a fair amount of info on his playing! Cheers from Holland!
Just stopping by to let you know I'm learning some Mateus Asato and it's sounding promising! Once I have a good chunk of one of his songs down I'll do the guitar Study on it! Thanks for driving me to taking a jab at his music. I'm learning a TON. Mateus Asato = legendary.
It's finally here! Let it be said that I am a man of my word :) th-cam.com/video/-jL4nqGdWf0/w-d-xo.html I hope it brings growth to your guitar playing! Cheers!
+Mister Jacki I'd absolutely love to. Sadly I need a guitar with a whammy bar to be able to teach it. As it is the only way to play it correctly. I could do it without, but I'd rather do it right. Once I get a new guitar with a whammy bar I'll be sure to teach it :). Patience is a virtue as they say.
You need to teach this material from a theoretical point of view. eg. this is an X arpeggio over X chord. Used because it makes X exotic sound. Because the notes mean nothing, The reasons for using the notes and the creative approach mean everything. If someone follows this, they are just mindlessly copying the material. They aren't learning anything musical. But great tutorial anyway!
Best guitar lesson ever dude, great job ! but i have one little question, and i'm sorry about this question, if you checked this video where Plini and Aaron playing at NAMM 2017 : th-cam.com/video/n4kL3IV6Mgc/w-d-xo.html the rhytm that Aaron marshall is playing between : 0:40 til 1:10 and The part from 1:12 til 1:39 where plini and aaron are playing the same thing, what about them? i mean can u post another video abt those two parts ?
Thanks a lot for your comment! I will consider it. Once I finish the entire song (Just 1\2 more parts) I can do a BONUS guitar study for those parts. That sound cool with you? Like a Guitar Study+
This is the greatest guitar lesson/study I've ever seen on TH-cam! Please post more, love it!
It was helpful thank you.
Amazing tutorial! Looking forward for more of your materials. Handmade cities please!
Glad to hear you enjoyed my stuff! I’ll write that one down on my list ;)

+Gamez John thanks for the feedback! I will make sure to double check my volumes for the next video.
Great initiative. Can you please do mateus Asato songs lesson?
That's one tough cookie to break down! But I will give it a shot. Just give me some time :)
you can do it bro that will be a treat .subscribed and waiting 😊

Luminous Dark thnx man at least i know it's coming eventually, looking foward :D
will you be doing more of plini?
+thefliper yes I will! I might start on a new song parallel to Cascade. Or maybe I'll finish Cascade first and start on a new song.
You need to teach this material from a theoretical point of view. eg. this is an X arpeggio over X chord. Used because it makes X exotic sound. Because the notes mean nothing, The reasons for using the notes and the creative approach mean everything. If someone follows this, they are just mindlessly copying the material. They aren't learning anything musical. But great tutorial anyway!
I second this! I actually never seen anyone do a tutorial and explain its theory. It would be really useful to many.
Jesus, everybody's a critic. Why don't you make that video?
Can you do paper moon? :) please
YES!
I have that exact guitar lol, what kind of amp are you running it through? Sounds great
What guitar is it?
At the time of making this video I used EzMix 2 for my guitar tone. Sorry for the late reply btw!
It’s an Ibanez RGA32
@@LuminousDark What amp did use from EZMIX 2? Thanks in advance
I believe it was from the metal guitar gods pack. A misha mansoor preset if ai remember correctly.
Hey I have small hands and I'm struggling with the 5 to 7 to 10 stretch, any tips?
