Hey everyone! So this is my first attempt at making a video like this, and honestly, structuring this video and articulating my thoughts in a somewhat clear manner was more challenging than I anticipated haha. This was definitely a good learning curve and I'd be keen to make more, so leave any suggestions/critiques in the comments! If there's one takeaway from the video that I can ultimately leave here, it's that practice is key. These tips are foundational principles to apply, but it doesn't mean you'll immediately be able to perfectly learn a Jason Richardson song (or maybe you will). Basically, apply what you can from this video and just continue to practice. You'll be surprised at the results! Enjoy \m/
@@JacobMartin Hi, i have a one stupid question, what the string gauge do you using for drop B? My opinion its very hard to find good string tension for this tuning, i tried 62-12 and 56-12, but 62-12 very tight and in 56-12 6 string a little bit soft
I like how an Australian only mentioned Australian bands in this video, lol. Good video, my guy. I’ve always wanted to know how people like Nik Nocturnal pump songs out so quickly. Especially the tuning.
Honestly, this is the best video I've seen on TH-cam on this topic. This is amazing and full of practical tips that are actually useful and not just "listen closely, eventually, you'll get it" (although that is obviously also true)
Awesome video dude. I will definitely apply these techniques in the future. Now if you'll excuse me, I gotta toss a shrimp on the Hugh Jackman by crikey.
Such a great video, keep more of this kind of content coming! I recently started figuring stuff out by ear as well, and I totally understand that feeling of satisfaction once something is figured out 😀
As a person with absolute note-ear I always have studied songs by ear and very rarely do I use tabs or stuff like that. I found your channel today and I must say the content seems interesting 😊
Great tips from an awesome guitar player! The song you used throughout the video is also great! I've been using Moises to figure tunes out lately. It helps a lot!
Hey bro. Been subscribed 4 a while, but never had notifications on, doh!!! For an aspiring tabber this video is awesome. Big thanks for filming it. Look ffwd to more 'how to' content!
I have given up on learning by ear a couple of months ago. I feel like giving it another go after watching this video. The EQ tip sounds really useful. Btw what is that dildo like shaped thing in your background?
Amaziing 🙏 I would be glad for a Recording/Mixing guitars video...I know there is maaaany videos about it but for me personally I always wanted to see your way😁🤘
Good stuff man, I hope you make more educational videos like this in addition to your covers/originals! I'd love to see a video of you showing us how to produce high quality audio for metal guitarists :)
Some good advice, dude I love your cover of mts “contraband” but I’m struggling with speed timing and technically of it, any suggestions on how to get it down
A lot of that comes down to the picking hand for me. Keep your wrist fluid but controlled if that makes sense. So like, with the string skipping parts, keeping the palm of your picking hand sort of down on the 2 lower strings to mute them and reduce noise and then get your fretting hand working in synchronicity with your pick hand. Definitely slow down the playback and just practice the part/s you’re struggling with on loop!
Great video, thank you so much for sharing...my big mental block is determining the chords...bands use different tunings with different chords variations....one power chord will different from one player to another....how do you approach this situation especially with different tunings...this is where my fear stems from, since im not ear trained and im deaf from my left hear...hope you could help me
#DownUnderCore The rabbit hole has lead me here. I'm a drummer, it would be cool to see more collabs with your brother. You guys should be an Indy, 2 piece metal band, like royal blood, but good.

Please, please make more lessons, i wanna know how you practice, how did you achieve such precise and clean technique, this is magnificent

Oh shit you’re right hahahaha, that was unintentional. And thanks man 🤘
@@JacobMartin its because us aussies love supporting other aussies. Especially Polaris haaha

Ah man thanks so much! This style of video was definitely different for me to make, so I’m glad you found some use out of it
Love this direction brother. If you eventually make your way around to some mixing stuff, I'll dye my hair your hair color.
Appreciate that man!
Fuck hahaha you’ve got yourself a deal
The mid-side EQ trick is a good one ! Thanks for the great tips !
This is gold! The most useful tip 😊
Awesome video dude. I will definitely apply these techniques in the future. Now if you'll excuse me, I gotta toss a shrimp on the Hugh Jackman by crikey.
😂 Yeah nah hooroo
Thanks man I appreciate the comment! Hopefully the techniques help a bit
Such a great video, keep more of this kind of content coming!

Thanks for watching man
All for these kind of videos! It was great thanks. Looking forward to a tone / recording tutorial 😋
I’m stoked you enjoyed it man! Yeah I’ve been getting a lot of requests for that one haha, I’ll get around to it at some point!
Polaris, best band.
It’s no secret that they’re my favourite 😏
I just sat here for like 2 hours trying to learn what you just figured out by ear in 2 mins. Im quitting 🙃
Nice work man

Brother is a very talented person.

Thank you Alex! 🙏
@@JacobMartin one day l will be as good my older brother.😊
I was looking forward to this bro!
Great lesson. Thank you
Thank you for watching 🙏

😂 it’s just an led light don’t get too excited.
And I’m glad to the hear the video provided some inspiration! Don’t give up 👍
What is the effect do you use? Sounds so f*cking great
I’ll use these techniques to learn your songs lol I’m still trying cornered
Hopefully it helps at least a little hahaha. Thanks for watching as always man!
You're such a great player....
Novelist
Polaris
Periphery
etc....
and many others they are one of my favorite bands......prog metal
Thank you! Yeah they’re some of my favourites as well 🤘
Good stuff man, the video seemed very natural! Would love to see content on making your tone stick out in a mix.
Ooo that’s a cool idea! I’ve had heaps of requests regarding tone and mixing but that’ll be a good note to add! Thanks man 🤘
Amaziing 🙏 I would be glad for a Recording/Mixing guitars video...I know there is maaaany videos about it but for me personally I always wanted to see your way😁🤘
Hi! Great tips! I liked eq with vocal tip and tuning advice the most! But what gear/plugin (I mean amp) you are using for guitar? Sounds awesome!
Great video and great information! 🤘
Thanks for doing this, great video🤘👍
Good stuff man, I hope you make more educational videos like this in addition to your covers/originals! I'd love to see a video of you showing us how to produce high quality audio for metal guitarists :)
Thanks so much mate! This format of video is a little daunting for me hahaha, but I’ll definitely do some more in the future!
Onya cobba!
Bloody ripper
man! love the tone!❤️
Im late to find this video, what a great videos!!!
How bout effects that you'll use while learning a song?? Do you set the effects first??

impressive tone. what guitar and pickup youre using here?
oh jackson. its in description my bad
Transcribe is a great program as well

:( :( :( still waiting for my AILD overcome cover :(
I'm overdue for an AILD cover actually!
Good stuff! Keep it up
Thanks Aden! 🙏
#DownUnderCore
The rabbit hole has lead me here.
I'm a drummer, it would be cool to see more collabs with your brother.
You guys should be an Indy, 2 piece metal band, like royal blood, but good.
6:50 i never know that can remove vocal
Hey, Jacob, where/how do you get the audio source for EQing though?
5:17 a birb!!!
But does this work for Archspire?
*but can u play green day?*
@@dfgvjnkjdsnbkjsbdvjkhdsb No :(
@@JacobMartin 😭
Can you make a tutorial for contraband i cant figure it out😭
Does your bird like listening to metal?
Loves it! Actually he just likes any noise in general tbh
Lmao, I thought I was on Lambchopper678’s channel with that question, haha.
harmonics help a shitload.... if theres harmonics you can almost always narrow down tuning :)
