I like this kind of technical thing with modes and maybe legato. Keep van halen coming I love when you break down a song note for note like him or any other band in that kind of genre
Ben, have you ever done a lesson on whammy bar tricks? That might be a fun one. A lesson on cool tapping licks would be a good one too like you did with the Arpeggios lesson. 👍🏻 If I could pick a song to work on then I'd love a '5 things you're doing wrong' in Sanitarium, Leper Messiah or Dyers Eve". Cheers Ben 🙂🎸🤘🏻
Uncle Ben, saving lives of depressed millennials and their kids. We need more teachers like you and the world needs more humans like you and you need million more subscribers than those 'reaction' guys. Thank you for everything.
Ben seriously your channel is absolute, pure, 24-karat gold - I'm a late beginner/early intermediate player and your exercises have been INSTRUMENTAL (no pun intended) in my chops improving dramatically over the last few weeks. Thank you so much for all that you do.
I've been watching some of those but it seems he slants the pick itself too much downward. The technique in this video might be more for my style of playing but I plan to experiment with both.
Been playing metal for 22 years and still watch your videos. Michael angelo batio’s videos back in the day taught me most of this stuff. But, i still like watching your lesson videos cause I can always learn something new from a guitar player that is way better than I am.
I didn't know any guitarists growing up so I learn to alternate pick starting with a down pick on each string. Done that for many many years until i saw your video way back when on starting the next string with then next continuing stroke. I've been trying to do that ever since but I'm only able to pull it off at step dad speeds. Once I get fast I auto revert back to my old shitty alt picking.
I was asking my fast guitar friend how to alternate pick fast. And now you've explained perfectly how to do it. So thanks a bunch.' This is the most useful lesson I've ever seen. Exactly what I was searching for.
good advice about its ok to exaggerate movements... Ive learned more music theory from you than anywhere else. Anything you teach on theory is very appreciated. Thanks uncle ben
I have been looking so long for someone to speak about the 'physics' of the minutia to get to the next level and your tips are absolutely priceless. thank you, Sir !
Thanks for sharing. People who are serious about music approach the guitar with awareness of what they are doing, and this really helps to make one more aware. Thanks Uncle Ben once again.
The last 5 minutes, talking about expanding the pick range really helped. I’ve never had a major issue with alternate picking, rather the transitions sounding smooth. There lies my issue. Thanks for the info!
Wow. The best guitar teacher on you tube is also practical enough to wear his ring on the right hand. I’m sold. Next time I have my bank card handy I will be hitting the Patreon link. Have a good one Brother. Oh - so now your a Roofer too?. Your a beast.
I discovered your channel 3 weeks ago. I’m 57 years old and I started playing when I was in sixth grade. These last ten years have been so blah (concerning my “playing”). My playing stopped progressing back in the 80’s! I found your synchronize your hands video and these last 3 weeks have been so encouraging. Thank you! I’ll keep watching and learning. My goal is to be able to play 16th notes at 120bpm. I’m at 97 bpm and slowly progressing. More progress in 3 weeks than 30 years! Thank you!
Wow you Read my Mind. I wanted to Practice that and now i saw your Video. Will Practice from now on. Thank you Heartly. Als Practice your legato patterns.
This video has me re thinking all the advice i have got over the years about economy of motion and the, " Gate theory " etcetera. If i try and fathom the Troy Grady form of pick slant and in addition to this utilize the roof slant distance of travel needed to get over the next string i am really going to have to slow it down and think! Thank you Uncle Ben for this new essential insight to practice utilizing alternate picking! ;)
The implication of this is that you need phrases that have you going down a string on a down pick and up a string on an up pick. Phrases that have you doing the opposite will not work. How many of us have ever thought about that? The reason we have missed it is because the good guys sound like they can play anything fast and fluently. But actually they are deliberately creating and using phrases that work for this picking method... Cool lesson Ben. Very cool indeed.
Nice to get a break from being constantly reminded of why I suck at guitar by uncle Ben :) actually I already know that. My vacuum cleaner even, is way better than me, co'z when I turn my vacuum cleaner off, it don't suck no more.
@@BenEller The must dificult thing for me (and for most people i think) is to switch between Downward and Upward Pickslanting playing descending lines, like Petrucci does in Metropolis scale run. There i can't use Swipping hehehe
Love your weekly lessons and content! I'm new to Logic so was hoping you might consider a tutorial on Logic in the future in terms of how you use it for your purposes....
This literally describes why I quit practicing for lead guitar a few years ago. No pick slant, trying to do tiny picking motions. Those Dick Dale riffs tho 🙄. Thanks for the Eureka moments
you the man bro. Awesome explanation. Another way I look at is like string skipping but not if that makes since. I use basicly the same technique but instead of down stroke on the 2nd or string away it's a up stroke on the next consecutive string. What part of the south are you from.
@@BenEller South South louisiana here. Keep doing what your doing. Tomorrow I'm a send you some money. I hope the younger guys and fuck even the old bastards like myself realize how valuable your videos actually are. From the theory behind it to the technique. And actually giving a fuck enough about the guitarists out there actually taking this shit serious and giving them solid information on a silver platter for free. I assure you my man I'll drop some money in the hat monthly to help. Again sincerely thanks
Love your videos Ben. Got from zero to an aspiring hero in two years, and it all started with This Is Why You Suck At Guitar! Also, as a personal request, I always wanted to hear your take on legato practice - I just love to get some tips on getting this almost liquid sound that Sach, Vai, Gothrie and others have on some of their solos.
Aw man, I _love_ this riff. I'm a sucker for that grandiose spacey Lydian sound though. Very Vai-ish. Anyway, it's pretty tough to think about the pick-slant angle *while playing*. Especially when it's fast playing. So I guess the key is to play it slow while deliberately thinking about (and controlling) the angle of the pick and where that slant changes from up to down. Then just hope it starts coming naturally at higher speeds. That's pretty much how a *lot* of guitar-learning seems to work. Oh and Uncle Ben closes with the suggestion to get away from the computer and instead fire up the metronome... But what if my metronome is *on* the computer?! Contradictory instruction! Now I'm all flummoxed. ;)
@@BenEller Have you considered posting it somewhere? There's some other interesting background music in some of your other lessons. I'd buy an album of that stuff.
I have the opposite problem - I pick like a pecking bird, and every stroke comes up out of the strings even if I'm not going to change strings. Need to work on that if I want to get faster.
Steven Hartman I used to be the same. I found the reason I was doing that was because I was thinking of picking as an arm movement. I tried thinking of it as more of a wrist rotation movement and practiced for a couple weeks with that in mind and all was good after! Hope that helps at all, good luck!
Thanks for all of your interesting videos.Wouldn't it be more practical on 3 notes/string method to downstroke the adjacent string like it's done on sweeping arpeggios as oppose to using an upstroke?
Wh...why did you sound like Petrucci in Adam02's Psycho Exercises at the beginning?? My main techniques usually are triplets, sextuplets, and string skipping. When I began using alternate more often 15 years ago, I noticed that it used to be sloppy because my picking positioning used to be paralleled to the strings. I started changing the movement to wrist notations, aiming the pick tip downwards and upwards (down on the first 3 strings and up on the last 3). Pick slanting just helped solidify the facility and clean sounding picking instead of the muddy sound I still had a little. Add this to your arsenal, folks! It also helps to start with legatos; pick downwards slanted and hammer ons, upwards the next string and add picking strokes as you get more comfortable.
It’s the string skipping that gets me with this. It seems like if I almost try to Aim for a rest stroke every other string it kind of starts to come together.Also I have a bit of a struggle keeping my thumb from not flexing forward and back when I’m picking
Hello Uncle Ben... I naturally two way pick slant... but economy pick mostly... does Troy Grady or you have any thoughts on that.. passing a string to force an alternating stroke hurts my head.. why not pick it instead of pass it... love to hear a response .. thanks GGG
When I first watched your pick slanting lesson I thought I need to do that on the entire stroke of the string... And then in this video you say I only need to to that on the last stroke, and I thought... Hey... I already do that from a long time ago... Edit: I just realized I start doing that because I watch your video about "Your Picking Patterns Suck" back then, and the escaping motion just came naturally...
You are my favorite uncle ..Uncle Ben! Although, I am much older than you ..which says a lot about my parents sisters and brothers and of course.. Step Dads! Just saving all these in a file and waiting to take down one of the four cheap ass guitars currently hanging on the wall behind me. I will probably just work all this out in my sleep and start ripping Hendrix riffs any day now...through the magic of..osmosis! Hey, how about doing Little Wing like you did those two awesome Steely Dan tunes? I would be there for that.
Uncle Ben...im obsessed with picking and i've been working on pick slanting....but there has to come a point where the slanting just becomes a "feel"...cuz my brain isnt quick enough to detect an upstroke or a downstroke on the last note...i guess its gonna take hundreds if not thousands of hours of practice...yea....good times!!!
last note before string change. He's playing three notes per string sometimes repeating. So it would always be on either the 3rd or 6th note of the string.
I notice at 2:21 after playing the very first note you immediately shift in preparation for the move to the 5th string ( even though you still have 2 notes left to play on the 6th string)
@@BenEller ... my problem, too... i find it hard to "know" that i will skip the strings in, let say 5 more hits. That´s why i like to play more dwps - even if unnecessary and to much movement- and change the direction right before the string skip.... mhhhh...
Hey there Uncle Ben! Thanks for generously posting another entertaining and informative video! As a dedicated TH-cam guitar student, I'm trying to develop my alternative picking the right way, and learn a top Weezer song at the same time. The intro hook, which I know you've covered before, represents a one note per string alternate picking challenge. Which is good right! Do you have any advice for how to approach it, apart from practicing it for hours at stepdad speed? Which is a guaranteed method to success, I know. Keep it up. Much love from London, UK.
Hey Ben, I have a question about downward slant picking and I want to make sure I have this correct. When you are downward slant picking do you have to keep that slant angle during the entire picking phrase? Or can a tremolo regularly and then add the slant at the end?
Sorry for the noisy mic later in the video!!! No idea what it was picking up. What do you all want to learn next week?!
Ben Eller Ben recently I see your tutorials .. I understand little English but looking at them help me a lot !!! Greetings from Argentina

I would like to see you do a vid on your hybrid technique and when do you use it? String skips, crossing strings or on the same string ever? Thanks.
Hi ben, can u do the beyond the reef arpeggio section? Would be a nice way to practice hybrid picking.
