GMC LESSON 101 Direct Link http://bit.ly/gmclesson101 CLICK HERE TO JOIN CHAT ROOM @ 5PM EST 10PM GMT https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/chat Let's warm up and get going! FINGER YOGA! Let’s do our usual Finger Yoga stretches. Here is a link to the video for references. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=POvVMNdc6Tg Here is a GUITAR RIG 4 custom patch for today GMC101.ksd.zip ( 5.52K ) Number of downloads: 139 WARMING UP FIRST UP! (Starting with GASP and upstroke!) Here is something I've never asked you to do before. STARTING WITH AN UPSTROKE! For 100 lessons we have started with downstrokes to it's time to change things up! We are going to work on our right hand today so get ready for picking your brains out! WARM UP LICK *START WITH AN UPSTROKE! We are going to work this pattern quite a bit. -Start by playing each position once in a loop. -Play each position once and move up one fret then repeat, all the way to the 12th fret. -Find max comfortable speed. Then -Play each position four times. -After two loops, move up one fret. -Speed up *START WITH AN UPSTROKE! We are going to work this pattern quite a bit. 101warmup.gp5 ( 1.54K ) Number of downloads: 145 ALTERNATE PICKING AND ECONOMIC PICKING *Again, INITIATE WITH AN UPSTROKE! Let's start again with an upstroke, but add two downstrokes to follow. Using Two down strokes in a row makes this a use if "Economic Picking". Once you get the hang of this, it will make playing complex polyrythms quite a bit easier. 101a.gp5 ( 1.58K ) Number of downloads: 134 -Start by playing each position once in a loop. -Play each position once and move up one fret then repeat, all the way to the 12th fret. -Find max comfortable speed. Then -Play each position four times. -After two loops, move up one fret. -Speed up STRICK ALTERNATE PICKING BY WAY OF THE DREADED DOUBLE PICKING!!!!!! Double Picking (Two strokes per note) IS FREAKING HARD!!!! But not impossible. Let's take the same pattern we just played, and "Double Pick" it. Let's move to strict ALTERNATE PICKING now. Every stroke should alternate. And.... *INITIATE WITH A DOWNSTROKE! 101b.gp5 ( 1.68K ) Number of downloads: 134 -Start by playing each position once in a loop. -Play each position once and move up one fret then repeat, all the way to the 12th fret. -Find max comfortable speed. Then -Play each position four times. -After two loops, move up one fret. -Speed up ADDING IN THE PINKY!!!!! Now let's turn it up a notch and add our fav finger! THE PINKY! Let's work this like the others. *NOTICE THE THREE DOWNSTROKES IN A ROW! 101c.gp5 ( 1.62K ) Number of downloads: 131 DOUBLE PICKING WITH CRAZY SHAPES! Now let's double pick this same shape. And switch back to strict ALTERNATE PICKING! *INIATE WITH A DOWN STROKE! 101d.gp5 ( 1.77K ) Number of downloads: 126 GALLOP DRUMS 101DRUMTRACK.mp3 ( 1.14MB ) Number of downloads: 155 This post has been edited by Todd Simpson: Mar 17 2012, 11:53 PM |
