The Missing Piece of the Guitar Puzzle
My message today is directed at guitar players that are frustrated by a lack of progress. They feel that something’s missing that keeps them from advancing, and they’re correct. Most guitarists reach a level after playing for a couple of years that is pretty much the end of progress. This plateau can last decades if you don’t find the key. I’m here today to share the key.

I’m going to share a hack that could improve your guitar playing skills as much as ten-fold over the next year. Are you interested? Find a personal instructor that shares your musical taste, can help you set and meet goals, and has playing skills that you lack. Possibly most important, they must be able to communicate what you want to learn in a way that is meaningful to you. It’s not helpful w...

Is it best to play left handed or right handed? This will surprise you!

Ever wonder why guitarists don't fret with their dominant hand? For example, a right-handed guitarist, frets with the left-hand. What's up with that?

I have had really good success with these methods. I've yet to break a glass with my scream, but the girls in the front row don't care. Thanks Jim!
Hey Doug you are right, It would be fantastic to have a guitar instructor. For me it's personally the price even though it is very well worth it. There was a place by me called School Of Rock I would have loved to attend but at $350 a month it was just out of my budget. Any private guitar players in my area are typically charging around $90 an hour or more. I know it is well worth it but it's just never been in the budget. I am very thankful for your amazing videos. The complete rock guitar course is a true game changer for sure in my humble opinion.
Was hoping to see some vids with the amazing David Fefolt. Any out there?
Hey Doug! We love you so much man. I have your complete rock guitar course and the "easy guitar modes" DVDs. It's so awesome to see you making content and posting new videos. I really want to buy all the DVD's for every course before they are gone forever. Having the physical copy means the world to me. Thank you so much Doug! You know alot of the older gentleman I personally know , who play rock and metal say it all started for them with Metal Method. I feel like everything you share with us is a lesson. Keep on rocking Doug and again thank you so much for all these years of rock n roll and heavy freakin metal.
Some day I'll be reaching that level soon.
Don't we all? Imagine waking up everyday and knowing you shred like that
This guitarist play's far Better than Joe satirani.That guitar level is beginning of dragon force
While Michael's playing is technically clean and fast, the more you develop your musical sensibilities, the more you'll be able to hear how this is more of an advanced set of 'scale patterns' practice and less of a cohesive song that is memorable. The best thing to ask yourself with just about any piece of music..."Is there anything you can take away that you can hum to yourself, or are there clear musical ideas that you can recall in your head??" Try it now. :) What you recall is probably grouping of scale runs in 4s. Meaning...ba da da da, ba da da da, ba da da da, ba da da da, etc going up and down, right?
Cara e um et fí nao tem jeito!
This is faster than Lamborghini!🏎️🏎️
Absolutely mind blowing performance! Every member on point. Doug, talk about being at the top your game man! That’s solo brought tears to my eyes…
I start at 1% and play like a boss
Video is obviously sped up at some parts.
the entire video is actually slowed down, if this was played at it's regular speed they'd have to put a "Warning, your head will explode" advisory.
Oh no! Michael is a speed beast!
No. You are just bad...
it is in fact not sped up at any part.
have you never seen MAB?
Your tutorials helped me so much I appreciate the very well made videos. Your an absolute legend. Speed on
"Hey this name seems familiar" *Thinks back to 1986 or so* METAL METHOD! DOUG! WOAH!
you missed a note bro.. epic fail.
They don't make it look easy. To them it IS easy. This is what hours upon hours of practice will eventually do; take something incredibly intricate and made it second nature. There's no great secret, kids. Grab a metronome and be prepared to work hard for years.
Left handed playing right handed bass. I concur with your comments.
Technically great, never really grabbed me like yngwie,becker,lane, Gilbert, Johnson, etc. That hand over neck stuff😂 cmon man. At 17 i could play hot for teacher on drums an guitar at the same time sans every single ride cymbal hit. lol But that was a little bragging gimmick i did that wasn't useful to any good music so i stopped. Just wanted to show myself i could do it. Point is, playing for sport is useless. Becker did that yoyo thing😂 Batio is insanely good ,though. If you think about it, only a few shredders really stand out because of originality, sound, style,etc
If it take 60 seconds to tune a floyd rose why is the video 9 mins 😂JK
People who repeat first class in elementary school say: “less is more”
this mf still going?
My trem system goes flat and sharp..no rhyme or reason to it.wondering if I should try a different set of springs or is it ebanol nut..anyone out there any thoughts??
This is the Rex Kwon Do of music
2:53-3:07 geez man I wasn’t expecting this had me get up from my high
2:51 - 3:15 is the epic
My tuning is now perfect. TX a lot.
IMPRESSIVE! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Thanks Doug! Starting with string 3 when tuning is an approach I've never heard of before.
Crazy. How does that work. I'll try it next time things go out. Usually my guitars are setup well enough once they are in tune they stay there so close I can just touch the one or two strings and I don't have to chase my tail, but this will be great for stretching new strings, and working on guitars.
The basis of my guitar instruction came from Metal Method lessons, and then I traded notes with other guitarists and watched lots of UA-cam.
Bella voce il cantante
No one in this mf planet can do this... he is surely a god
In my instructional video I say, "I'm going to give you the keys to the 1976 AMC Pacer."
LOL
I accepted constructive criticism while performing live on the piano for my family at our Christmas gatherings. It helped me to shape my show.
All of your advice is welcome. I have always applied what i feel is useful to my walk. Thanks for the pearls of wisdom. You're a life teacher among many other things. Brief anecdote from my own life. I learned not to over practice. Lol. I almost forgot the lyrics to our first song in a new band lineup on an unexpected performance offer. Thankfully, i remembered in time just before the vocal was to come in after the intro. I calmed myself and never let on as i was in brief panic in my mind. I remembered your advice in my own interpretation from lesson tapes, which was so what, just jave fun!
Hey Doug, I bought Carvin products because of your sound. It'd be great to have this offered on Tab along with your song No one to love and others. I got your tapes back in the day in the early 90's as a teen. You are a Tremendous teacher. I owe a lot to those tapes and your other lessons offered over the years. I became signed briefly and a Grammy Voting Member and NARAS P & E Wing Member! Ive completed all ypur lessons levels so i suppose i could buy the Hawk CD and learn them by ear. Anyway, if you decide to put them out lete know. Also, thanks so much. I always be grateful to you as a teacher I consider you the best! Cheers, lots of respect 🙏 and gpod wishes to you and your family and friends. God bless 🙌
Hey Doug, I bought Carvin products because of your sound. It'd be great to have this offered on Tab along with your song Witches and others. I got your tapes back in the day.
Never-ending. Lol. I found it on the website. Cheers
i have the keys but no car :(
Did I just get the keys to the Lamborghini?
Asked him is that a wig and he said f u man 😂 how rude
who lost the keys in 2024?
Im still looking for them lol
Let’s face it, Lefty’s are good for two things, boxing and pitching, kidding.., sort of. Lots of Lefties do play right handed because of the options for left handed guitars are nil basically, also though lefties live in a right handed handed world except for toilets, the handle is typically on the left, which is odd, but they learn to use their right hands far more than us righties learn to use our lefts. Most right handed people are really right hand dominant and wonder sometimes if we even need our left hand.
Back in the 80’s where you could get famous for playing the guitar really fast. Now nobody gives a shit sadly
24 million views says otherwise.
To be fair it gets boring after fifteen seconds.
Each to their own...the repetition of 12 bar blues n rock n roll usually nauseates me, this is way above
Not so novel anymore, now you can find 1000 videos of uber drivers playing faster than this
@@owenbruce4120 Both are equally as boring.
…………..
Does that dragon slayer have 29 frets?
Aye
Bad ass Axe brother

Wig! I bought one of those guitars and it felt like a slab. I sent it back. It's all in the picking hand my young jedis. And endless repetitive practice. Advice: stop posing for photos and just play. But he's King of Shred and I'm nobody---
My brain melts a little more each time I watch this 😮🔥
Doug, are there any Hawk vinyls available in metal method website.
