#327 - 10 THINGS I Wish I Knew As A Beginner Guitarist
🕑 Added 2024-05-31 14:30:03 +0000 UTCMy friends, before we check out the winners of this month's lesson voting, I'd like to show you 10 exercise concepts/topics I wish I knew as a beginner player :) This would have honestly saved me years of practice, so I hope I can help you on your journey!
Download this week's workout package (tabs, guitar pro, play-along videos, backing tracks): https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1gZFtAl_LnUZpGPRjde-2qbnJSRt-P8ed?usp=sharing
The exercises in this video make for an awesome daily routine with many great topics (picking, finger technique, timing, and even unique techniques like tapping or economy picking) so give this a try in your next practice sessions! And if you feel stuck, remember that you can post practice videos in the VIP Facebook group for feedback :)
And as always, I also made a Dropbox folder in case Google Drive doesn't work for you: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/tcfn477gkiyfcyhpx1hkz/ACvU0jyZJAs6RbSDSgKNh7g?rlkey=4esutpl2639wagk2jjsphs8n5&st=82wf8rh6&dl=0

Hello Blake, you are right, sorry for this! Here's the link I wanted to share with you: https://www.patreon.com/posts/232-how-to-build-68819801 Thanks for your patience and have a great weekend! Team Bernth

Not sure if that was the correct link. that sent me to a video discussing the difference in performance vs price of guitars. ($15,000 vs $250 guitar)

Hey there, when it comes to creating a daily practice routine, please check out this: https://youtu.be/26Y3neeIWVg Hope this helps, Team Bernth

So in order to fit this into a daily routine how many repetitions per exercise would you say? An hour per day for strictly exercises sounds reasonable.

It would be great to see some rhythm footage in the VIP group in order to help! 🤘

Years ago I changed to the close fisted technique. My down picking riffs have suffered the most vs my old technique. I know you don’t bend your picking thing nearly at all while doing it. But I can’t not do that when it comes to these types of downpicking riffs. I also tend to hit my pointer finger on other strings unless I come in at a weird angle. Thoughts?

Great new package! I also love that there's finally some new tapping exercise. I would love to see more one that, since there hasn't been that much focus on tapping up until now. (Yes, there's the 30 tapping course, but aside from that not much)

I completely missed that, thank you so much. Can't wait to get stuck into these exercises. :D

Hey there, we have a beginner section over at 'Collections' and 'Beginner Videos'! Hope they will help with getting you started :) Team Bernth

Hey there, you can download this week's practice package with the Google Drive/Dropbox link in the post! For the full courses, please go to 'Collections' and 'Patreon Online Courses' and you will find everything there (the download links are also always in the posts there). Hope that helps! Team Bernth

How do I see the courses/routines you refer to in your videos. I pretty much see all the individual videos not really any that are grouped together as a course/routine. Sorry if this is a stupid question.

Reads like a doable Pratice Routine for me. Except the Sweep Picking Excercise, cause there are other Techniques I have to train and improvise first
