Hey Jason I only know power chords and palm muting. I just started playing at 55yrs old. I have the randall 150 watt combo I love it when it sends me across the room what a fuckin RUSH😝
love these types of riffs. I tried to come up with some of my own but alas I'm more of a word smith. I can write a song but coming up with the notes/mrlody that hasn't made it here yet. Great stuff Jason!!!
I started following your videos a few months back and I have a new love for my guitar 🎸 I started learning guitar in my 50's self taught from TH-cam. You make the best riff videos out there
Awesome lesson. I love that style. I think I heard Keith Richards refer to it as The Ancient art of weaving. Def Leppard are kings of this so are Perry and Whitford. To bands from Seattle that were great at it as well Queensryche and Pearl Jam, I'll give Black Crows a honorable mention. And of course Malcom and Angus.
I love these kinds of rhythms! Great video, Jason! I would love a harmonization tutorial! A looper pedal tutorial, also! An "in the style of" Def Leppard tutorial would also be fantastic!
Dude, I've never heard that tune (I just made this up for the video...it was in my head so I recorded it). But there are a ton of songs that use this progression!
Sounded familiar very 80s I just wrote a backing track the other day that’s this progression and very similar riffing only differences is I bent the A on 6 string with the open A string sounds Erie . Then give it a nice harmonic touch as I let it up tho on open a after power cord .. that’s funny .🤘🏻 I have the most fun just noodling around with tracks even just drum tracks of famous songs and make it my own experience recording a lot of it but who wants 15 min long riffing and wild solos that’s a jumbled mess of recorded noodling lol
Yeah dude, it's cool to just jam along with songs. I did a lot of that when I started out...I'd throw in a cassette or sometimes just the radio, and would make up solos to them
I don’t know how I missed this video but I like doing song structures like that and I’m doing my own songwriting. But it’s really cool if you take that lead and go up an octave the second time.
Just finished watching you play rhythm 🎸 like scorpions, Priest GnR & more.... fantastic information, and this chord progression brought out some killer riffs including Quiet Riot's Metal Health, which I wasn't expecting. Thank you for your teaching talent, Jason! I like how you encourage your audience to have free reign in developing our own metal style!
@jasonstallworth I'm gunnal support your channel this coming month because you are a talented instructor, I have gained so much knowledge from you. Thank you, Jason 😄🎸
So....shi't going to hit the fan? i love the rhythm duality, starting at the same point and then both go on a different path but still end up in the same place...love it love it love it
Lol...yeah, good thing I didn't throw a bag of poop up there! Dude, it's amazing what you can do with this concept! And I really like how you presented that...starting in the same place, breaking off, and the landing back in that spot together...it's one of the things that's so captivating about rock and metal!
Great video Jason ! Your videos are definitely making me evolved as a guitar player 🤘😎 thanks again for helping guys like me improving and developing there own style . So much great information .
Hey, great video, really instructional. I dabble with playing Bass also, as well as drums. Could you do another video with this showing how you recorded the bass part? I am always at a loss as to what to do when it comes to filling in a bass part for what I write. That would be great. Thanks.
Man, it's good to hear you're playing other instruments! I do have a few bass videos on my channel and that's a great idea to share the process! I'll get something out there soon!
@@jasonstallworth I play drums and guitar, but I'm pretty weak on bass. I, too, would appreciate some bass recording and bass compositional tips (specifically when complimenting the rhythm guitars, like in this lesson)! Thanks, Jason!
Hey Jason, great video. I've recently started exploring changing between chords and single notes within the same scale. It's been at a much slower tempo than Metal Riff Master (MRM) and is helping me with the transitions. As you were showing these riffs, I was creating the connections back to the stuff I mentioned above. I'm a big fan of understanding the "why" something sound great. Looking forward to getting back to MRM at some stage as I think I'll have better luck nailing the riffs. On another topic, you mentioned you record your own bass tracks which is something I'm keen to do. I'm currently taking an online bass course to help. I can find a few bass videos on your channel, but would you consider doing some more and explain how you chose what to play in the context of your awesome metal rhythms please? Keep it Metal 🤘🤘🤘
Dude, thank you for getting my course and for the support! Yeah, definitely jump back into that and you can go through that course as many times as you like! I do plan to do more bass videos on my channel...I've had a few requests for that lately!
Thanks for the vid and your positive energy! Makes me excited to learn! Cracks me up that so many satanic, deathly, counter culture, metal heads are the nicest people when you get to know them 😂😂
I’ve said before playing more of a rock style you shred of course but it suits you idk what your inner voice is mines a progressive bluesy rock metal mixture lol some guys just do blues some just do metal
Dude, to be honest, things have been shifting a little internally. A lot of it has to do with the live acoustic gigs that I've been doing so much of lately. And it's all going back to the roots of where I started, with more of that hard rock and classic metal sound along with my greatest influence, Joe Satriani. Like, the album I'm recording right now (I wrote the songs and my drummer recorded his tracks over a year ago for this album!), I originally recorded it with my 7 string but I'm re-recording it with mainly my Ibanez RG (6 string) and making some changes here and there. It's metal, but it's more classic meets thrash metal, which a foundation of melodies.
@@jasonstallworth satriani is amazing in my top tier list for sure . I love the 90s hard rock sound post grunge stuff pretty much anything after the 90s it just to much it sounds great but it get to be all the same sound “djent” . I love playing hard rock with a 80smetal twist
One question that comes to mind Jason I don’t ever ask much lol … hope this makes sense -a typical band playing live or just guys jamming out is two guitarist maybe three if vocals can jam .. everyone’s playing different setups right ok , on a Daw doing solo work playing and writing it all yourself do you use same amps/cab sims for rhythm as lead and change FXS or are they two separate beasts that played together harmonize? I find when I’m mixing my tracks my lead is sounding good nice tone not to much of anything crazy but it’s hard to find that blend of ok the tracks going good progression nice riffing and then the lead kinda cuts it if that makes sense not a volume cut but something isn’t quite right . If I can figure this out that be great lol I’m working so hard at life and still keeping discipline at my music I put it hold for many years in the past from starting piano at 4 bc of negativity around me but that’s the past I’ve been playing for the future 20+ years playing has been a long road but it’s coming to light rapidly in this digital age and how easy it is to actual be in a studio without being in a studio with some cables a computer and some gear lol
Yeah dude, the 'new way' of recording with technology has made the process a lot more feasible. As far as amps (and even amp sims), I typically use the same amp for a song, or at least for the parts with distortion. The only thing I'll do it make a slight shift with the mic or use a different cabinet for that 2nd rhythm track. I do the same when recording a real amp (I'll just move the mic a little on that 2nd track, OR I may use a slightly different EQ setting for the mids or highs just to get a different, but not substantially different tone). I've experimented using different amps and most of the time, it just doesn't mesh together too well. And I like to keep things simple.
@@jasonstallworth is that a pedal? Im going thru 100w marshall stack with a boss mt-2 metal zone pedal. Dont have a computor ,only amp and pedals. Also LOVE ur site!!! Finally somebody that plays my kind of music!
do you want millions of views? and subs? let me tell you what we want. 100's or do by 20 lol riffs of 80's rock songs from Motley to kiss and all in between you know them all. play just the main parts and put the freaken tabs on screen so we can actual learn chords etc... in a song that we know in a context that's way more fun. that way we learn and it's fast and easy. instead of a bunch of guitar theory and put your finger here and put that finguer there, this is in a/b sharp 13 add44 sus79 and 6th notes and a half inteval and a quater going to the what the heck ever omg THAT would be best. there are not enough youtubers doing that on youtube.
That's actually more along the lines of my lessons (I don't get into theory as it's not how I learned). As far as 'how to play other people's songs' - that's something something that interests me at all. Rather, I share some of the methods and techniques used. More than learning songs, I encourage folks to branch out and come up with their own riffs
@@jasonstallworth oh ok sorry. I am randomly suggesting this to many because that's what I'm looking for.. so sorry for that.I like better to learn say a new chord in a song that I like because it's way more fun that way and then I will play it again and again and then I will have it in my hand and finguers to THEN play other riff with it as I please. but hey thats my way of thinking now because I have been watching for years 100s of different lessons on theory and getting no were fast and having zero fun. so I'm done with it for a while. seriously do you know how many vids there are on theory? and they all show bite and parts of theory thinking it will be easier for people or is it for more views. or is it for lack of knowing how to put it all toghetter. na I am tired of it because it doesnt even make me what to play realy at all. so realy I am learning nothing. and certainly not getting better. so bites of songs will be for me now and more fun, at least I will be actualy playing with my guitars.

2:16 now that's next level content 🤘 anyone with ADD immediately paid attention after that one.
Dude, that's good to hear...I try to include little humor points in here and there!

Do you play D&D as well as you play guitar? You rolled a d20 crit with this video yeah! Sweet medieval metal in the corner.
Man, I wish I knew that a d20 was...love the concept of D&D but never actually played it
That video was AWESOME!!! Plenty of information in there, you're very good at explaining things....
Thank you, I appreciate that 🤘

That's the Heading Out to the Highway riff if I'm not mistaken...with a little bit of Uncle Jason's touch, of course!

ha ha ha excellent my brother , sounds sick , just got back into guitar after 20 years , loving the sound
🤘
You're lessons are great and thank you for sharing your knowledge.

I love this G little bend on E string, that s feel like dark cowboy metal
Cowboy metal 🤘
Very cool. I must try this with my looper pedal for that live feeling!!
Yeah that's a great way to practice!
Cool stuff Jason I work with that type progression a lot fun stuff
🤘
I don’t know how I missed this video but I like doing song structures like that and I’m doing my own songwriting. But it’s really cool if you take that lead and go up an octave the second time.
