Gren19th March 2007Really nice! I'm weak in this style of playing, so this should really help me out.
The Uncreator21st March 2007Great Stuff, keep up the cool lessons
BalysLTU25th March 2007Nice as always, Pavel! Keep up the good work!
BalysLTU25th March 2007Ah man, lick 4 is killing my wrist ![]()
Pavel26th March 2007I believe you have problems with your LEFT hand wrist - don't play it by strenght. If you feel tired and tensed - put the lick away and relax. Practice it in small sessions.
BalysLTU29th March 2007Its alright now but I still find sliding with my pinky kinda hard. Need more practise I suppose
betschart29th March 2007Lovin the lesson - sounds great.
BalysLTU29th March 2007Eh, Im confused on fingering in lick 5. Maybe you could capture your fret board so we could see your fingering more easily? That would be great ![]()
Pavel30th March 2007Here is the tab, and the numbers above illustrate the finger of your left hand:
1 2 3 4 3 2 4 3 4 4 4 4 4
|---------------------------------|
|---------------------------------|
|---------9----6--------7p-6------|
|-------7----7----7---7------9s-7-|
|-----7-------------7-------------|
|--5------------------------------|
I think this is how i play it! ![]()
Pavel30th March 2007Maaaaaaan the font is screwed
so look at it like this:
fret 5 - finger1, fret 7 - finger 2... and keep reading from the tab above until you get it down.

Pavel1st April 2007Well if you see that there is a slide or hammer-on missing - it's no big deal. The notes are still the same - and you can play all those legato stuff whatever way you like it so it is not a mistake!
Ponyboy14th April 2007I love the shred and the speed riffs... BUT, this is certainly a refreshing change of pace!!! Besides, the clean sound often compliments the shred....
MORE PLEASE!!!!
Intermission15th April 2007COOL!
alec16th April 2007this is awesome dude
alec16th April 2007i like the sound!
LiveRust20th April 2007Great lesson!!!
This is one of my favourites.
RushRckz3rd May 2007awesom lesson,
Zag14th May 2007Nice sound, fun to play even on a classical
Zag15th May 2007Pavel in Lick 4 is your index barreing the wholte 3rd fret top to bottom or just the G note?
Bit hard to tell on the video
Pavel15th May 2007It's just the G note i fret! ![]()
Stuartpa17th May 2007Great Technique, it is definitely a good to check every lesson series out on this site.
I really like these lessons here
GuitarHero000722nd May 2007WOW! this is awsome i am a starter and i just learned that and it helped me a lot thanx!!!
adam130215th June 2007awsome lesson thanks.
jammer9116th June 2007Awesome lesson..Wish you had more like these!
Victafor25th June 2007i love these clean lessons. I love the new shapes and stuff. But I hate speed lessons because speed is not my strength. Im good at learning new shapes so keep the clean ones comin
Pavel25th June 2007Hey thanks! I am glad you like these clean tunes! But it's easy to just surrender - you have to practice and one day you'll say that shred is your strength!! I'll think of some more clean lessons!
Toofister28th June 2007So incredibly tasteful, I love it , keep up the awesome lessons Pavel.
atomix133731st July 2007I especially like this ones too, they help me in accuracy when changing chords, and long stretches, low on the fret board ![]()
Mav1st September 2007Hi Pavel,
Great sounding lesson. Nice to have some chord based stuff. Couple of questions for you on this.
1. Are you mainly downpicking on these. If not when are you using down and when using up etc. I cant really see what is happening with your right hand on the video.
2. You say that the video 2 is in the key of D major but im confused. D major should be E, F#, G, A which on the G string would 9, 11, 12 and 14. Did you just add the G# for colour?
Im trying to build up my theory so i fully understand the keys behind the tracks and the patterns being rather than just blindly learning the tab shown hence the question.
Jenkinson19th November 2007Pavel I stumbled upon this for probably the 50th time and, again it blew me away. Please more clean acoustic material.. I bought a Martin and want to put it to good use.
Pavel18th November 2007@Mav: sorry for really late response, i missed your question before...
There are loads of down picks there and watch the slowed down videos, it's easier to see the direction there.
It's D-Major by chord progression. Our theory masters on the forum would sure point me to a certain mode i am using but i never think in theory so i play by ear. Sometimes you will notice that something not from a regular scale will sound much better than a straight scale playing.
@Jenkinson: ok man, i am lacking ideas for lessons so i think i'll do something "clean" next ![]()
Wolff25th November 2007New stuff to me and my Martin - Yes sir
Pavel26th November 2007Hehe cool! I hope to work on more clean/acoustic stuff in the future ![]()
Wolff28th November 2007Just wanna add..... it`s hardcore to play on a Martin.... Well just been playing for 1 year now so thats okey, but 2 hours a day can only get U so far.
Joe Kataldo28th February 2008Nice stuff
