    Probably the craziest picking technique I've seen.

    • @donrogers7227
      @donrogers7227 Před 4 lety +143

      Bro I'm sitting here trying to figure out what's going on with that

    • @goonsquad_official
      @goonsquad_official Před 4 lety +73

      That’s how the normal progression goes. You can only downstroke at first, then you learn to upstroke when you play chords, then comes alternate picking, maybe some finger-picking, and then you learn to alternate between your fingers on the pick like you’re some kind of Spanish god. Simple progression.

    • @daleross8369

      JB wrote a blurb in the tab book I bought that he grips with his middle finger.

    • @richardsager9867
      @richardsager9867 Před 4 lety +41

      It's like he down picks but hits the back of the pick. Then he switches to what I consider normal for triplets or fast chugs but then switches to his middle finger when doing fast alternate picking. It's so fuckin weird. I wouldn't think any guitar teacher would teach someone to ever play like that but he makes it work and fuckin rocks.

      As a guitar tutor of 24 years, this has more detriment than benefits. There's a reason people like Misha from Periphery actually re-taught himself how to position his lock due to this. It's not a completely different terrible trait in practice, it's just if you're not doing it, don't bother at all. Pointless. ​@@andrewashford5617

      I try to memorize how many beats the pattern runs before it loops, and pay more attention to where the rests are instead of the palm mutes. Album count is getting up there, I definitely could not memorize them all, but the classics are like riding a bike lol

    • @myronmosley2167

      @@lastnameawesome8982 of course. But like you said it comes easy. Like riding a bike. I just had to relearn a set list from my old band because we've going to record the songs. Haven't played those songs in 8 years. As soon as I started playing, it all came back. In about 30 minutes I was able to play both guitar parts just as well as I used to back when we were still gigging.

    My friend Travis always tries to get me to listen to new bands. One day, he said you gotta here this band. It was this song he played through his phone. At the time, it sounded like shit (through the phone). So I went home and played it through my computer. I was completely blown away. Ever since then, I became a fan. And when ABR hits SoCal, we don't miss a show!!

    Sometimes I come back to this video to watch the picking technique. Having just watched a Troy Grady video about something called reverse dart throwing picking motion has made this picking motion make a lot more sense and i think it explains some of the difficulty i've had trying to get some of the trickier triplets in between the fast string skipping. Either way though this video was super helpful in helping me get started on learning how to play electric guitar in general so thanks JB!

    Shake it off
    Pick yourself up, they say
    Your life fell apart in your hands, and you've got the scars to prove it
    It's not the first time, and they're getting deeper
    Pull it together
    Button up your shirt
    Roll down those sleeves
    Don't let them see how you've coped
    It's not the first time, and they're getting deeper
    More and more your demeanor looks like quicksand
    More and more your demeanor looks like quicksand
    It seems like your giving up, giving up on everything you worked for
    It seems like your giving up, giving up on everything you worked for
    It's pulling you under
    It's gripping around your throat
    It's pulling you under
    It's gripping around your throat
    It seems like your giving up on everything
    It seems like your giving up on everything
    It's pulling you under
    (It's pulling you under)
    Life can be overwhelming
    But don't turn your back on the strongest crutch you've ever had
    (You've ever had)
    They have always been there to brace your fall
    Wave goodbye to the past
    You've got your whole life to lead
    Wave goodbye to the past
    You've got your whole life to lead
    Wave goodbye to the past
    You've got your whole life to lead
    Wave goodbye to the past
    You've got your whole life to lead
    You've got your whole life to lead
    You've got your whole life to lead
    It's time to gain some ground
