How to Shred Guitar (for non-shredders)

[@PeteFine]

Great, clear instructional video. I've been playing since 1963 ! everything from rock, jazz, and my own electric guitar concerto with symphony orchestras. But this introduced me to a whole new experience and technique. Much appreciated, Mathew.

I really love the way you teach this! Very easy to follow and great tips! Thank you!

I just noticed you are using a thumb pick...

[@Sea_Jay]

Great advise! Can I ask what pick you use? That looks like it could solve my issues with my pick turning sideways in my fingers or just plain dropping it!

[@mathew_dale]

Sure thing! It’s a Fred Kelly bumblebee jazz pick.

[@Sea_Jay]

@@mathew_dale Appreciate it! I'm going to try one

[@RobTackettCovers]

wow when i play in 3s like you present, it is hard not to think triplets for me

[@mathew_dale]

Yeah it’s difficult to play in groups of 3 in a division of 4. Great to practice though!

You can really lose your head when you shred

[@davidyoung8875]

What is that thing on your thumb?

[@tolgaguven3467]

Lol; it's a thumbpick. Not really the pick of choice for neoclassical shredding.

[@mathew_dale]

Specifically it’s a Fred Kelly bumblebee jazz pick. Basically a Jazz III on a thumb loop
