I'm sure it's helpful so I like and then watch
i was here to do that.
That's some respect. He must be good.
super appreciate it!
Too risky u never know...
Ok, its was sooooo fucking helpful!!! new subs... But beware! and i can get bored too easly
Hey I love that you put the instructions on the side as you go. That is a brilliant idea especially for folks that might need the extra input from reading it along with hearing it.
Trevor is like some math rock samurai master
haha
I wish I had this guy as a teacher when I was younger. Simply amazing.
You're my inspiration to study more about music theory and to love the Mathrock music and genre even more *sorry my English was bad*
Your english is great man
Could've used a comma for readability (a nitpick), and you forgot a period at the end, but otherwise your English was fine.
@@ossiehalvorson7702 grammar isn’t really needed in a little message like this, I used grammar because I’m so used to it but it’s not really needed unless it’s like an email or something 😎
hey trevor! i wanted to thank you for all the help in creating chords and all of your alternate tuning videos, i loved dadf#ae yet i wanted to make a more melancholy sounding tuning, so i lowered the f# to an f to make a dm add9 tuning, it's really pretty and i've already created a bunch of chords using the d minor scale, i used your tip of taking a chord and moving each note to the next available one in the scale and it's helped me find so many voicings. thank you so much for everything!
Yo thank you for the nice words! That's a great idea for getting some minor key sounds. I can totally imagine it sounds great!
Yayyy..❣️💫
your videos got me into music theory seriously💓
glad to hear that!
Thank you for the lesson! I’ve been meaning to get better at tapping on bass and guitar, and this really helped :) great work!
no problem! glad to hear
I’m loving these. I’m trying to get
More into math rock/Midwest emo. Even got myself a telecaster lol. I grew up in a musical fam so I have a tiny bit of knowledge but I just really wanna improve so bad. see there’s this girl… 😅
Do it for yourself
Can't afford an electric. But I will work as hard as I can on the acoustic I own.
I don't own an electric but I've heard transitioning from acoustic to electric is like going from college to kindergarten(in terms of technique). So it's actually really helpful to practice tapping or any sort of exercise on acoustic until you get an electric. Just some motivation for you lol
@@Aaron-or7bs I would say college to Middle school/High School according to my experience. Yes, I was inconsistent for years.
@@Aaron-or7bs I definitely regret not spending more time on my electric playing over the years! I'm 34 and feel like I'm learning a new instrument sometimes
I didnt think it would be, but the thumb anchor point alone is SO CRUCIAL
This is ridiculously helpful. Thank you.
very good practices and thorough instruction. this should get people on the tap game for sure
You and Uncle Ben Eller were the only ones on this platform that have explained how to do tapping very well. While I get your focus in on math rock, all the techniques you mention in this video are equally applicable to shred applications like Eruption as well as math rock songs.
Will you over some melodic ideas for tapping? or some shapes you find useful when creating melodies?
Use your voice and go slowly, let your voice find the next note. If you are working within the context of more than one note at once, that context should put something into your brain
@@TrevorWongMusic cool! I'll try it out. Thanks for the reply
@@TrevorWongMusic this is such great advice. it's so often that i find myself noodling aimlessly trying to find what sounds good, and then i stop, listen to what i hear in my head and then just find that on the guitar!
break up/arpeggiate 7th and 9th chords, slide up by 2nds and 3rds, usually works for me
as soon as I can afford your patron I will join. Thanks for everything!
Great Video!!! Just starting with these techniques!!! Thankyou!!!!!!!!
Very good video. Do you have a talent for assiduously selecting every detail for highlight in the proper pattern to make learning incredibly easy. I wish I had somebody like you around when I was trying to figure this out 20 years ago. It took a lot longer than necessary it’s always fun.
The basic exercise is also very useful developing finger picking independence and dampening control for playing slide. Instead of just pull off pull off and then return to stop one finger at a time with the other fingers dampening the unplayed string
Quick question: I'm fairly experienced with tapping by this point, but I still have trouble with getting those tapped notes at the twelfth fret and higher to ring out clearly. Once you get halfway up the string you can really start to hear the bottom half ringing out as well, and I'm wondering how you get it to sound so clean
The main way to get rid of that ring is using your fretting hand to mute the bottom half of the string. Some people use a fretwrap if their fretting hand is too busy playing stuff, but when possible, try to mute with it!
And just know that your pickups will not hear the bottom half of your strings, especially when you have a good muting technique. Most of the bother is only heard by you, not the audience. So you'll be okay ^_^
Hey I know this is a bit late, but you could really boost the sound of your tapped notes by using a compressor pedal. The compressor will essentially make your notes play at the same volume, regardless of how hard or soft you play the note. A lot of math rock artists get those really crisp, clean tapped notes and harmonics with the aid of the compressor pedal. Neural DSP creates amp simulators that you can run on your computer and they actually just released one with Tim Henson of Polyphia. With this amp sim, you'll have access to Tim's tones as well as a compressor pedal!
I would like to know that as well. Those overtones are so annoying 😭😭
You're doin' great fellar, keep it up!
Mom: why is your phone upside down?
Me: 👁️👁️ dw ab it
thanks man, cool video!
thank you so much!!!
Bless this
Thank you!!
No problem!
Hi Trevor. Great vid. What gauge strings do you recommend?
trevor i love youuuu
country boy i looove you
@@sequoia7128 do we know eachother?😸
@@manassehcohen379 sorry it’s a reference to a video 😅it sounded similar to your comment
@@manassehcohen379 czcams.com/video/R2OtIXyZpSo/video.htmlsi=yXHj3ANHGyOjd4Lu
Can you use your pinky to tap?
09:21 "Van Halen so cheesy, but we can make it sound good". The disrespect... I LOVE IT
I don’t think it was disrespectful at all. Shred and math rock playing techniques are pretty similar.
Hey Trevor. Every consider doing video on writing emo bass lines?
Maybe in the future!
Can you show tapping scales?
could do that in a future vid!
Great I have to build callouses again 😭
Asking here cause i don't know where else to ask.
What are some good Mathrock/Midwest Emo artists?
I'm new to the genre, so far I've only listened to a couple Polyphia tracks and the first two America Football albums (I gotta say that I like the latter way more than Polyphia, but they're cool too).
Any suggestions?
Marietta
look up some mathrock playlists on CZcams and Spotify and see what bands you like
Tricot! :)
Hella 😔

Hey man I just wanted to ask, how are your other fingers so still when you were tapping with your pointe finger? When I tap with one of my fingers the rest tend to bounce around as well 😆
Damn this is hard
Time to get some calluses on my right hand
Awesome! Do you have tips on how to improve the guitar sound to make the tapping clearer or even?
Especially when it comes to recording.
id start with compression and sustain :)
Idk if it helps but I find the front pick up is sometimes better for clean tapping if your guitar has one.
I miss my wife
ok man go to therapy or something if it bothers you. That is not related to the video
I miss your wife too.
what gauge strings would u recommend?
Hey, math rock is my favourite genre of music and you seem to play it brilliantly. I want my first electric guitar to achieve your godlike math rock playing so what starter guitar (and amp) do you think I should buy? I wanted to ask a professional. Thanks g.
hey! I see nobody responded and sorry if this is overstepping but what's your budget?
@@bonechimney hello, $500 maximum.
@@fariabdullozoda7310 cool cool. So for an amp I recommend the 50 watt Boss Katana. You can usually find those on reverb for about $150. For the guitar your price range is pushing towards the Squier Affinity series, that'll push you all the way up to $500 after- I recommend watching demos on those guitars and then picking whichever one sounds best to you. You're mainly going to be looking at Stratocasters, Telecasters, Jaguars, and Jazzmaster. The kind of guitar in this video is a telecaster :)
@@bonechimney ah thank you so much! I appreciate you taking the time to answer my question.
@@fariabdullozoda7310 No problem at all! Guitar/Music in general is a great thing and I always support people wanting to pick it up :)
What do I do if I play acoustic
Buy an electric ⚡️
@@Motomike69 haha
What size strings are ya playing with?
10's
8:50 imp
11:48 too
I'm having trouble with sloppiness those unwanted noise
666th like. And no dislikes
Actually never anchor with your pinky as the tendon is a lot weaker. Long ago I ruptured mine after months of using it as an anchor for a a video game controller. 😣
Anchoring on guitar doesn't out any force on the anchor it's just to feel a distance out.
im the 1k lmao
I think I’m just stupid. I don’t understand it lol but yet I’m a beginner
