Triplet Etude, Lesson By Piotr Kaczor |
|
Here is where the magic happens: the REC board turns bedroom guitarists into real pros. Remember - it doesn't matter if you fail or pass, as long as you keep posting REC takes you will progress.
The entries will be graded by a number of instructors. After grading, members will be accredited with the appropriate points if they pass, and adjustments will be made to their REC level.
Passing grade is 6 or higher.

Original lesson: Triplet Etude by Piotr Kaczor
Hi GMC I’ve been working on this lesson since august 2017 You can see my progress on the different videos below, (clic on show "SPOILER") Since then, I have worked almost every week, sometimes I wanted to break my guitar, so difficult it was but I never gave up. My reference Take is that of "digana" because it plays a perfect take, this guitarist is so relaxed, I am admiring. When I compare with the original, I still hear flaws but I feel like I have made a giant step from the beginning, It’s not perfect, but it’s time for me to deliver it to you. <div class="youtube-embed"></div> Spoiler: This post has been edited by MisterM: Mar 12 2019, 06:19 AM |

Kris nailed it imho. For the sweep bits, keeping the thumb joint stiff works great, however for the other bits, you have to work twice as hard and move twice as much as your motion is coming from the wrist / down toward the pick, instead of coming from the thumb/forefinger / back towards the wrist. In essence, picking backwards in terms of where each strike is initiated. For scale/note bits, using the thumb to articulate the pick allows a great deal of precision with a very small expenditure of energy and very fine control.
It's easy to work on thumb/forefinger picking. Just pick any scale and run it up and down and look at your thumb. If your thumb is NOT bending a bit with each string traverse, then slow down and focus on letting the thumb joint bend and use the first finger to pull in towards the palm to articulate the pick in small movements. Adding this technique to your playing will yield huge results imho. You did a really good job on playing this bit considering you did it with a stiff hand the entire time. I could not have pulled it off. Small wonder it took so long. Solid 7 here! Original lesson: Triplet Etude by Piotr Kaczor
