- In this quick guitar lesson, I show you a concept that my friend Mitch Holder came up with called Quadraphonic Fingering. Mitch ended up writing a book about it. Many people thought that Howard Roberts had come up with the idea, because Mitch studied with Howard for many years. It turns out, it was actually Mitch who showed the concept to Howard, who instantly approved of it and started using it. I hope you take the time to study Quadraphonic Fingering. Let me know what you think about it. Leave me a comment, and thanks for watching!

As I remember , H.R referred to them as sonic shapes, well documented on Equinox Express Elevator, glad to have found your channel!
i basically apply some of those fingerings 2 the chromatic scale starting on the E, A & D strings. I choose 2 navigate diagonally across the fretboard & depending on the pattern, shift outa posi 2 finish the scale. Had that book 4 decades .. has rotated off 2 the 4th dimension now
This is like a figuring Rubics Cube. Thank you so much.
Great lesson/ practice tip!
One circa 1970 HR column involved his concept of sonic shapes on guitar and it has influenced me ever since.
I went to Howardâs music school in hollywood, just a few years after his death. Most of the faculty had been longtime personal friends with him. There was something very similar to this in the âsingle stringâ curriculum. I clearly remember that there was a fierce debate among the faculty about the usefulness of these exercises. One of the more prominent faculty members, a very famous guitar player, was firmly in the camp that believed exercises that are atonal or will never become a significant part of your vocabulary are largely a waste of time and you would be better off practicing finger exercises that are closer to what you will use when you play. It was presented to us as an issue in which there is no right or wrong answer, but it was delivered with a grain of salt. Like do this at your own risk. It could be a waste of time if you do it too much.
sounds similar to runs in Don Mock's Hot Licks and 21st Century Intervallic Designs for Guitar by Joe Diorio 1978 REH Publications
I remember reading and practicing stuff like this in Howard Robertsâ Column. Now I know where Howard Roberts may have come with his idea for the âTwilight Zoneâ Theme.
A regime of extensive warm up exercises can produce better results during time spent practicing or rehearsing. They also produce improved fluidity and economy of motion during improvising. Even soaking the hands in hot water can wake them up to the stimulus and urge to play. I am always impressed by how Rich`s hands appear to float across the fretboard, while beautiful passages of tone full notes are produced. In my opinion, Rich will always be a brighter star than that Hammett character. By far!
Love your videos.
How high do you set your action ?
As low as it can go without buzzing
George Benson once said that the fewer fingers you use to play a difficult phrase, the better it will sound. The sound is what counts. Play a SOUND. . . . . . .
