this is really great, love the idea of focussing on the foundation techniques more than just individual songs and riffs. it's the techniques that lead to those riffs in the first place.
Having been playing guitar for 30-odd years, it's really refreshing when bands like Polyphia turn things around. It's even more refreshing when folks like Jack break things down. Really enjoyed this video. Cheers!
that's what REALLY get's me about polyphia. Theyre all obviously... unreal in their talent.. it's that they changed the game. Any musician who has seen them play had their ideas about music changed
I thought this was going to be a meme. But, I love Polyphia so I said what the heck. Let’s check it out. Wow, great video. I don’t play but I thoroughly enjoyed the video. Having a better time understanding generally how they are even coming up with some of the sounds gives me even more appreciation or how they see the music they are playing. It’s just fascinating. It would be cool to hear you play a song without the techniques they use then follow it up with how they actually play it. Just to see and hear the difference back to back. Anyways, well done! You are something special being able to break it down and explain what’s happening when they play. This video had it all! I am subscribing right now! Hopefully you will be doing more Polyphia!
Loved your intro demo! I may not be able to play it for the next year or two, nonetheless bought your tab/backing track just for support of your channel. Way to go!
You’re an incredible guitarist, Jack. At my age, my fingers can only manage a “David Gilmour” speed but, I do enjoy watching your videos. Thank you for sharing.
Just discovered your channel but gotta say thank you for this! It's not stuff I wasn't aware of but seeing you break it down like that is very cool. Will definitely start practicing my hybrid picking for my music. :)
Wow, the fact that you can play like that is amazing because Tim's playing is hard. Awesome video. My 44yrd hands can't keep up with you young guys but it's still cool to watch.
Excellent overview of the technical aspects of their playing. I am a bit confused by Tim's comment about avoiding using "boomer bends" given the frequent use of the whammy bar tricks. Sonically both accomplish the same thing. Anyway, great job with this video!
hey man nice video but a tip, if you are telling people to get some plugins or something like that make sure to put the links in the description. would be easier ;D
Great video, and you’re obviously a tremendous guitar player, with great technique. Which is why I was so surprised to hear you refer 😅to your low E, A, and D strings as the “top” strings. Musical convention is to refer to the area of the instrument where the lowest notes are found, as the “bottom”, or “low end” of the instrument. And conversely, the high notes are found at the “high”, or “top” end. So, it could be quite confusing for some your viewers, if they become used to your vernacular, and are then exposed to the conventional terminology. Anyway, just saying… Kia Ora
Oh man I didn’t even realise haha. My bad. Hopefully my points still get across. I’ll have to keep an eye on this in future videos. Thanks for pointing that out to me
One day, not long from now, You will be making a video thanking everyone for your 100k subs plaque. I will be excited to say on that day, I've been here since 3k subs. :) This is one of the very best videos I've seen in a long time. I hope you stick with it!
Really hay I found your channel Jack. I always wanted to learn how to tone my gear to play their stuff and besides those techniques...I ended up the video already creating my own riffs based on those ideas. Thank you.
Hybrid picking is interesting… it gives a sharper attack on the bass notes and a softer attack on the treble notes with the option to flat pick the treble notes to sharpen it up. So it gives the speed of pure finger picking with a more aggressive attack on the bass notes, neat. Learning how to do it shouldn’t be too different than learning finger picking, it’s just that you’re holding a pick with your thumb and index and shifting your middle and ring fingers down a string and using your pinkie on the high e. As far as “boomer bends” go… they have their style and that’s great, but bending and tremolo are techniques that can shape your own unique voice with the instrument. Anybody that’s tried and failed to capture David Gilmour’s style can attest to bending being a thing that can set you apart as a guitarist. I have a feeling that at some point in the future Polyphia will explore this at some point in the future.
Heyo, awesome video!! I'm new to the electric side of guitar playing, what guitar (under 1k if possible) would you reccomend for this sort of style/sound?
Step 1: oversized hoodie
Step 2 : nEcc tAt
@@riel8808 damn i guess I don’t got enough money to be a good guitarist
@@_rising_sun_ a good guitar costs more than a little neck tat
I would also add, fluffy slippers
Polyphia each album:
Muse: Some dudes in suits
Renaissance: Some dudes in Jedi robes

THAT OPENING RIFF WAS SICK.

Man this was great ! Your mastery and creativity with these techniques is absolutely impressive ! And great, great pedagogy.

That intro riff was nuts
Bro i've loved Midnight for so long now. Youre music is great
My guy, you're awesome. I hope you get the recognition you deserve.
That little opening riff was fucking crazy. Super dope man
Loved your intro demo! I may not be able to play it for the next year or two, nonetheless bought your tab/backing track just for support of your channel. Way to go!
Thank you!

Nice playing Jack, cool to see someone from NZ copping this style
Just discovered your channel but gotta say thank you for this! It's not stuff I wasn't aware of but seeing you break it down like that is very cool. Will definitely start practicing my hybrid picking for my music. :)
the new video idea, how to make music like polyphia: keep dreaming
Very good, man. Great explanation! This is from an former boomer bend player.
I really notice the inspiration from goat for that riff
this video motivates me to play more polyphia
Very logical and anaylitic tutorial with deep understanding. It was really helpful to me to understand new hype guitar style.
mastery is a great word applied here im 63 and you have given me new directions thank you so much
bro ur a legend for this upload. Good stuff man ❤
That demo song in the beginning goes WAY too hard. Incredible job dude.
Wow, the fact that you can play like that is amazing because Tim's playing is hard. Awesome video. My 44yrd hands can't keep up with you young guys but it's still cool to watch.
Awesome !!!! thanks. for the inspiration man, ur so underrated!!
I’ve already been using those picks for a few months, I’m one step there :)
Bro your awesome, thank you for this, I'm looking to learn how to play this type of guitar style
Great video. I don't even play but enjoyed watching your video.
HOOOLYYY WHAT....that sounds so much like polyphia
You are really brilliant man... Love from Malaysia Borneo ❤
Excellent overview of the technical aspects of their playing. I am a bit confused by Tim's comment about avoiding using "boomer bends" given the frequent use of the whammy bar tricks. Sonically both accomplish the same thing. Anyway, great job with this video!
hey man nice video but a tip, if you are telling people to get some plugins or something like that make sure to put the links in the description. would be easier ;D
Very nice video man, love that you also included a little tone section!
Also that beginning riff was _tasty_
Just starting getting into finger picking but I love polyphia's style, gonna practice hybrid picking instead,thanks for talking about it
Totally thought you were at 100k subs! Thanks for the breakdown!
Great Video. thsnk you for this informstive video^^ i might hsve jist found my new fav music channel :)

When I saw the title I expected this to be a meme video. Like the jhoff films how to be a metal vocalist videos.
Nice breakdown! Subscribed :)
hybrid picking is crazy hard. it's going to take me a wile to learn that . one step at a time . nice lesion totally subed
super helpful video thanks
POV your playing polyphia
Your hoodie draw-strings get caught in your guitar strings. 💀
Bro, the riff that you did at the beginning is just incredible if you have the tab I'm interested. Good evening
Tab is available through the link in the description:)

Thank you so much, the tone is spot on and works great for Ichika Nito songs too!
Excellent job!!
Great video mate 👍🏼
I would totally watch a full video on hybrid picking technique.
Excellent video. Thanks for putting this together!
Great video as always. I don’t know how you don’t have millions of subscribers
Great video Jack!
Fantastic video, thanks!
Excellent tutorial!! Keep it like that!!💪💪
I keep rewinding that intro riff 😅😂😭🔥🙏🏽
awesome video, good job!
This is fabulous! So I noticed your using a Boss Katana; do you have it miced up or is it running though the amp via usb?
Through usb. Gives you a bit more option to tweak the sounds. Plus I don’t own a dynamic mic to mic it up with 😆
@@JackRollinsonMusic Keep up the great work, man! Looking forward to seeing more from you
@@_rising_sun_ Thanks! :)
