  • Ok, this sounds like a delay pedal or like he's playing crazy fast but it looks so easy!
    Enjoy!

      Nuno also has a technique with muting that sounds like a delay but's just him muting the strings. He shows it on his interview with Rick Beato video

    This is why I love electric guitar. It's such a relatively new instrument that people still find new ways to play, and Tosin is one of the best at breaking the boundaries of the instrument.

      “He’s like” 😂 I really hope people realize the disjointed humor in that.
      Also, I tried to follow along with that explanation and I couldn’t follow it for the life of me. I’ve been playing guitar for 18 years. Abasi is god tier

      @@Moakalatte Yes you are right. I am just doing fine so I could continue my normal life routine: wake up, work, sleep and playing guitar, of course. But this does not stop me from checking news about the current conflict / war (which I found it unnecessary: the suffering outweighs the benefit of one man) cause deep down I am like you, too: despair, angry, shock, and most of all I just do not know what to do. By trying to maintain a positive mindset and getting my objectives done, is what keeps me going right now.

    • @LONGname46
      @LONGname46 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      He pretty much is! I'm a guitarist who's practiced selective picking and primarily with the fret hand, that's what you're setting up, with the picking hand letting you do those multiple notes 😁

    • @bdubs3819
      @bdubs3819 ปีที่แล้ว

      You're actually on the right track. While playing a note, he's probably letting the edges of his fingers rest on the neighboring strings in strategic places to keep them silent.

    I feel like this is one of those things that a lot of us have stumbled across, and played around with, but never cashed in on it like he did. It’s like Edward Van Halen and tapping. People dabbled with it before him, but he turned it into a consistent and refined thing.

      The first 3 notes are the same note, the second three notes are the same note (an octave higher than the first 3) but the last notes are not the same, I think it's just a descending run of pulled off and hammered on notes

    • @bdubs3819
