I’ve spent so many hours recording to a click, it’s natural for me. My drummer told me several times I have a better clock than he does. I hold my pick even tighter than you do. I keep my thumb wrapped around most all the time, because I use it a lot! Another great pinkie finger exercise is a variation of the 4 finger exercise you show, but only use fingers 3 and 4.
I've been playing Guitar for 45 years and got into my first band just 1 year after starting. I had nobody around to show me and back then there was only eyes and ears and a lot of hands on the neck practicing. Only rhythm of course. Sure it was the basic Johnny Be Good stuff and 3 corded Southern Rock. And now at the ripe old age of 61 you talked me into breaking all those old habits. Omg its going to be brutal but thank you so much for the encouragement. Your a badass musician btw, big fan for a long time. Happy New Year
Pretty good exercises. And she spot on about the metronome. I'm a different player since I started using it when I'm practicing. It all in the rhythm. I appreciate the help. Thanks.
Ahh, the thumb! Great tip. All of these are great tips. I've got to find an old style metronome because I wear headphones when practicing and can't hear my phone metronome app..
That spider walk has always been a bastard for me to try and play lol It's a useful exercise but god damn it's difficult. the others are all easy exercises for me. Great lesson. I love this channel so much =)
I second that (we are thousands I guess). Whatever you level is, especially if you're a self-made player, she helps a lot to correct all the bad habits and to start other things in another (the good one) way! Eddie and Lexi are my teachers!
Hello Lexi Rose, I saw your playing Hangar 18 Solo first part, the second part is so fast, the sweep is for my fretting hand so fast... Can you play that part and post video on your channel please, let's work on that together... I can't up to that speed, and I can use metronome as you recommended I have a nice metronome. Looks like it's 160 bpm...
I just started playing about 7 weeks ago, and I feel so attacked😂 But seriously, this is a great video and has given me some areas to include in my practice routine. Thanks!
I played 30 years Jazz with Piano. 2 years ago I decided to practice all the Instruments. I daily Jam 2 hours every single night The Guitar with Zappa, Jimi, Prince & others. I really Misunderstood that Guitar is much easier than Piano once you learn how to scale correctly.
If your lessons and Marty's lessons hooked up and made a baby lesson, it would be to practice open E Blues scale in triplets with a metronome, one click per triplet.
#4 has been my worst. Thank you for sharing these techniques

I started at 60 bpm, and i am up to 65 bpm. I do this as my warm up.
This helped off a plateau and on to better things. My issue was reaching which caused motion loss, a bit better now. 🎸🌷
Awesome thank you !

Number 4 is immposible! Leave me alone!!!!!
With the exception of #5 I struggled with these bad habits when I played. This would have been a helpful video before I quit playing.
I tend to keep my thumb opposite my second finger, and it tends to move down as my hand moves through the scale.
All of the best guitarist content creators that I watch break most of these rules 😂
She has good camera placement where you can see both hands clearly.
I wish more TH-camrs would do this!
Thanks for the advice.

😊thank you so much 🎸

*4,that's my bad habit , definitely
She’s always the best
She’s slowly becoming one of their best teachers,no nonsense,all simply explained. Perfect lesson here.

I can't believe guitar is easier than piano...
@@pat.c.1653 Watch some of Jesus Molina keyboard playing, then you'll see it can get a lot harder than guitar.
You can't hear metronome when your guitar is on.
I use headphones

Great teacher!
Im hoping you will pull out a les paul soon😊😁
