The thumb joint movement will turbo charge your speed & accuracy! Tabs: kristoferdahl.com/blogs/news/... #alternatepicking #shredguitar #guitarlesson #sologuitar #ltdguitars #guitartutor #guitarinstructor
Gamechanger!!!! Did this unconsciously from time to time, but now it's getting hotta speedy!! Thank you so much for this video. This technique not only adds accuracy but also feeling and expression to picking!!
Thanks for the wonderful advice Teacher, unknowly i learned that technique but i didnt c anyone use it so i stop doing it, after seeing you play. I will start practising again. Thanks for the cool knowledge.
Cool! Thanks! 👍🏼 Look like you pull the pick towards the palm🤔 I saw Takayoshi Ohmura use similar technique. And Rick Graham talk about thumb joint movement🤙🏼
It is beyond me that you don’t have a million subscribers. I follow you since 2008/2009 and your content has always been superb. I remember your lesson ‘nocturnal vision’ and that melody is still in my head after all these years.
This is truly one of the best advice I've come across on CZcams, just what I needed to advance my alternate picking accuracy and speed, thanks. Pls can you recommend an exercise pattern to monitor growth with this technique?
Hey @KristoferDahl This is great! Could you do a video explaining 2 note per string pentatonics and how you approach picking those at hight speeds with alternate picking? There's a lot out there but I'd love to hear your take on this subject
OK so I was a bit sceptical at first. But I gave this a couple days practice and did improve my precision and speed. I'm addicted to this kind of movement, without having to think about pico slanting and what not
Great tutorial on finger movements! I would also like to know, for this kind of push-pull movement, is it recommended to mainly use the thumb or the index finger to drive the pick?
So the purpose of using the thumb is to achieve a very fine economic movement? It's interesting because i had the same idea but by using the muscles that rotate the forearm, so my thumb is actually completely still. Seems to me like both movements are using the same type of muscles that are able to kind of "twitch" rapidly without feeling strained.
@@KristoferDahl I mean like rotating the forearm from palm-down to palm-up. EVH used that movement in a very extreme way for his tremolo picking, which is what gave me the idea to be mindful of utilizing those muscles for my picking technique - since it effortlessly allows for these very tiny and rapid back and forth movements like how you're describing with the thumb thing.
@@KristoferDahl Fascinating how you can do it in two different ways! :D Im pretty sure my thumb is not moving at all but im definitely gonna have to look into that more!

So happy and proud I could help mate ❤️❤️❤️😁
Finally somebody is talking about this, this is one of the least often talked about mechanic in picking. Kudos to you for bringing it up :)
Agreed, this is often overlooked!
wow. thanks man. I remember the first time watching your video back at 2008 or 2009. and you are still here in 2024. 🤘
Hehe cool to connect again mate
@@KristoferDahl yeah mate. this video is really a game changer for me. break my barrier after soooo f**** long. 🤘 terimakasih banyak.

Yes that’s certainly a way to describe it!

Bro, made my day 👊❤️ I am still very proud of that track which I wrote with Marcus 🤩
@@KristoferDahl those were awesome lessons you made there, my friend ! You deserve much more attention from the YT community !
❤️❤️❤️

Yoo can use the same patterns as my “Scales don’t work” video 🙏🙏❤️❤️
This is great for really tough two note per string runs. Great advice bud
Thanks and practice hard 👊❤️
I followed ur vids some 15+yrs bk, really happy to see you back 😊.

Awesome to get some feedback! Yes, trust me if you include this into your routine you will start to see some pretty amazing results 😎👌
very helpful!
👊❤️
beautiful guitar
👊❤️

I would also like to know, for this kind of push-pull movement, is it recommended to mainly use the thumb or the index finger to drive the pick?
I would estimate its like 50-50 for me!
nice

Yes, and help you with string traverse. I don’t really see how you would accomplish the same with your wrist though!

Ah gotcha, that’s actually what i use for fast pentatonics!
@@KristoferDahl Fascinating how you can do it in two different ways! :D Im pretty sure my thumb is not moving at all but im definitely gonna have to look into that more!
Yes, start moving your thumb - it will help you a lot!
And ulways ulways up and down..or i struggle you-;) said one good teacher in the net! May be you know him-;)
Ahajaha it seems you have been watching too much Mr Guitartube 🤩😂 you filthy little..! 😂
I thought the thumbnail picture was ernest p. Worrell.
I hope that’s a compliment 😅
How is this different than economy picking? I may not be able to understand the movement as I'm watching from a mobile phone
You can (and should!) involve this movement in economy picking as well 😎👌
It's actually a WRIST ROLLING ACTION at high speed (alternate picking)..... it's a feeling not a technique. Thanks!
Tout ça pour un solo de 5 minutes
