    Every time he called it “cha-mer-ah”, it made my soul hurt

    The only thing harder for Mikey than playing the riff, is pronouncing the name properly.

    You need to do these long form videos more, they are awesome and incredible. It’s a better experience because it’s not just like a CZcams short, so it’s one topic for a sustained amount of time, and so it’s awesome. Keep up the great work👍

    would love to see some technical death metal in these learning videos. cytotoxin, archspire, nile and others would be interesting for you to learn.

    Whats interesting is sometimes the most complicated riffs are not the hardest to get right. There are lots of riffs that are not as complicated but are just as difficult. Every breath you take by the police, not only is it tricky but it also isnt the same progression on the verses for the whole song it varies slightly. There is also a song by the police called secret journey and the the arpeggiated riff for that is also pretty damn hard. Got to get paid by ZZ top, the hybrid picking is actually much harder than it seems because its absolutely screaming with gain so to get it to sound clean with no noise playing up to speed and in time is actually really hard. Then dont get me started on fingerpicking stuff some of it is just as hard as any shredding or technically impressive looking parts. Deep River Blues by Doc Watson,Never going back again by Fleetwood Mac and Big Love are absolute monsters to play fingerstyle and to get up to speed.

  • @alyx8522

    My grandpa told a story of trying to learn some song by ear that he could not get, in his dream the guitarist who performed it came to him and taught him, I have no clue the legitimacy, but it’s fun

  • @markponce6211
    @markponce6211 Před 8 dny

    To be honest, I was expecting a piece from Tarrega or Villalobos. Their pieces are very technically difficult for guitarists and I think it would've been interesting to see someone try and play it for the first time. Still, great playing overall!
    Side note: Just because it’s played on Nylon string doesn't make it classical. Andrew York wrote and played his piece Sunburst on a steel stringed guitar.
