Hey John ,you weren't kidding by saying " this lesson will fix Hand Synchronization! Amazing Now I'm hearing all the accents ! I just keep practicing this lesson!
Just want to thankyou, your tips and daily licks keep me from falling into aimless practice and I feel like each thing has a musical idea that can help build up the way scale ideas can be accentuated.
This is honestly one of the hardest things to get right for me, so that amplifies how much work remains on my hand synchronization, thanks Jon, and this pesky foot gets out of sorts with the one when the accent is not on the one! I liken it to what piano players must go through when they separate their left and right hands...
Separating your hands mechanically on the piano is honestly not that hard. The problem with your foot is that your brain needs to learn not to interpret an accent automatically as a strong beat, something that we have usually conditioned it to do for a very long time.
The good thing about that issue is that you can work on it anywhere. Just use your hands, counting and keeping your foot on the downbeat at all times. Once you get the feel without the guitar you'll find that it works much better.
Thank you Marek! Anyone who tells you that you'll become a virtuoso in 3 easy steps I'd probably not listen to👀 With that said, the better quality practice techniques the more you'll get out of your practice time and will end up improving faster.
Jon, You have hit the nail on the head w/ this video. As you apply, it creeps into what you already know, and benefits your playing. But, as you state, you have to put in the work.
Finally someone that explain this in a way that i understand and an exercise that makes sense - both my hands is quite fast but im so frustrated over how sloppy i play when i trying to play fast. - i will try to do this everyday for a while, so i really hope it helps.Thanks
Your posture and fretting hand technique is pretty on-point. Ever considered doing a video about those topics, and ergonomics? I know I had to change my technique after breaking my wrist/elbow and losing some of my range of motion.

Brings back bad memories golfing last time I went golfing I was leaving in cuffs lol but awesome exercise I do something very similar to this. Thanks for the lesson.
Hey Jon love your content. Keep it coming. Quick question have you found double picking each note to also be a good strategy for improving synchronization?
O man, I am 56, learning and playing guitar for 40 years, where were you whan I was 16?😢 perfect lessons and explanations👍👍👍 thnx very much and greetings from🇨🇿🥃
@@alesegdia Nah, you simply want to get through whatever you're practicing in this manner. Trying to accent the 5th sextuplet at a high speed is not gonna be fun:D
Hi Jon. Where do I find the tabs for this?? Everytime I click in the link below it just kerosene raking me to the email sign up page. And then even when I sign up it just keeps me on the sign up page afterwards.

Nice for beginners but I never found synchronizing the hard part, the hard part is getting the right hand up to speed and making string changes while maintaining that speed. Troy Grady helped a ton with that, but the part I still have a hard time with is the raw speed of the right hand, sure I can blast out a scale run but I can't sustain the picking through more than a few seconds. After a few seconds, my elbow tries to get involved to keep the right hand speed going and it's a bit of a hit & miss. It's funny though, I show people videos of my picking and their like, "damn, you really got it down", like, yeah, maybe for about 6 seconds of all out speed in my wrist.
I'm an eternal beginner since I'm definitely using this on pretty much a daily basis:D One good test to see if you still need to work on sync as well (it's never an either or in my experience) is to see if you can sync up your hand while picking as fast as you can on a single string. If you can't do that there's still work to do in the sync department as well.

Hey john whats the bpm when you are playing the fast example?
Hey John ,you weren't kidding by saying " this lesson will fix Hand Synchronization! Amazing Now I'm hearing all the accents ! I just keep practicing this lesson!
Awesome!
Perfect timing I've been working on this style lick now. Thanks!
Awesome!
Very helpful stuff thanks Jon.
Thank you!

Thank you very much, Jon, for this and all your other videos.
Thank you!
Man, you're on fire lately!
Great video after great video!!
Thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge!

Big thank you for your content. Very valuable tips and what I like a lot is that you don't present it as some magic, some quick solution. Thanks again

Great! Just make sure that you focus on absolute accuracy when you practice anything repetitive. Try it faster after you've done the work.
SPOTLIGHT Effect is real... you are absolutely right. Thank you
It really is! Thanks!

Great!

😂 Thanks man!
Gee, it's almost like I never left....you're still able to give me a new practice routine that makes me want to hang up my guitar LOL
😂
You're giving away all the secrets... Keep it up!
There's so much bad info out there and I want to try to rectify that:)

Not specifically for synchronization but it's still a worthwhile thing to practice.
Hey Jon, I'm looking for some good lessons for shreding
I like the accent tip!
Great! Give it a try, it really does work.

Do I have to join to see the tabs you mentioned early in this video?
The free mailing list? Yes👍
uf this was a nice one Jon, thanks!! I'm having a bad time trying to tap my foot on 1st note and accenting in 2nd 😂
Thanks!
Try slowing it down a lot, count out loud and make sure your foot is always on 1😊👍
@@JonBjork so this is an exercise that doesn't need to be sped up right? Thank you very much!!
@@alesegdia Nah, you simply want to get through whatever you're practicing in this manner. Trying to accent the 5th sextuplet at a high speed is not gonna be fun:D
@@JonBjork makes a lot of sense 😂
I actually went through all 6 strings x.x
Do you think pick planting would also work for this?
Give it a try!
where can we download the tabs for that exercice ?
All tabs are available via the link below. It’s all on my teachable page.
I clicked on the link for the tab but got sent to a mailing list? Good lesson but I’m kinda tablature addicted.
You have all the 200+ tabs available the second you sign up. Check your spam folder if not.
