🎸 Are you picking up guitar playing as your new hobby in 2024? What matters most to you in selecting your new guitar: brand, functionality, or aesthetic? In our latest research, we found that most guitar players prioritize brand over functionality or aesthetic when picking out their guitars. While functionality certainly has its place, consumers are willing to invest in the brands they find most trusted. In fact, we found that 49% of consumers were willing to pay $500 more for a guitar from Taylor Guitars than from Ibanez.

Building Extended Chords This is a very surface-level explanation of extended chords but it will work well if you have heard of them but don't know much about them. Building big extended chords is really pretty easy to understand. It starts with knowing the 'little' chords, and by that I mean triads. Triads have 3 chord tones: Root 3rd 5th 7th chords have 4 chord tones and are really just triads with a 7th, so you don’t have to start from scratch. Add a 7th to a triad. 9th chords have 5 chord tones and they are just a 7th chord with a 9th. So really they are a triad with a 7th and 9th. 11th chords have 6 chord tones and they have a few more complex rules, but for our quick explanation here, they’re just a triad with a 7th, 9th and an 11th. And finally, 13th chords have 7 chord tones and they, too, have a few more complex rules, but for our quick explanation here, they’re just a triad with a 7th, 9th, 11th with a 13th. The simple explanation works in most cases, but there are a few special things to know. Like, rarely are all the chord tones played by guitarists or keyboard players. But for starters, this explanation can be helpful. Fretboard Biology dives deep in to this subject.

In this video, we take a look at the differences between the Line 6 DL4 and the DL4 MkII guitar pedals! Both of these pedals are amazing sounding, but there are some key differences that you need to know about before making your purchase. I decided to test most of the original DL4 sounds to the MkII. I did some stereo delay comparisons starting at Stereo delays in chapters and I also showcase 2 newer sounds that I really dig: The Multi-Pass and the Heliosphere. Watch this video to learn more and let me know what you think in the comments!

Try this: Pick a guitar lick or exercise or part of a solo or whatever, that you want to get faster with. Make it no longer than 2 measures. Find out your top speed that you can play this item with. Now cut the metronome tempo in half and prime yourself to play the lick at half speed so that when you turn off the metronome in a moment, you know how slow half speed really is. When you know how slow half speed for this item is, do this routine a few times: Play the lick 4x without stopping in between on half speed, focusing only on the left hand, then right hand, then left hand then right hand and then: Immediately jump to your topspeed + 5 bpm. So if you played at 100 bpm topspeed, practice 4x on 50 bpm and then play at 105 bpm. If that worked well for you and you want more... Registrations for the 6-week-shred-bootcamp on the Guitaristy App are now open: https://guitaristy.app and if you manage to double up your guitar speed in those 6 weeks you will win a cash prize of 100€! "BUT DOUBLING UP IS NEAR IMPOSSIBLE!"... It's meant to be challenging. And I don't expect everyone to double up. But I DO expect everyone to gain valuable practicing insights that you can use for the rest of your life. In the very least you'll have gained irreplaceable practicing skills that let you improve anything you will ever come across. So, let's get started!

I wrote over 150 emails for a guitar client in 2023… Here are the top 10 performing subject lines and their open rates: Thank you so much - 45% Big announcement (I almost got arrested over this) - 45% The ONE note that changed everything - 45% Chords and solos are the SAME - 44% ?????????????? - 43% Thank you - 43% The “Golden Rule of Thirds” for insane improvement - 43% You’re not lazy - 43% My wife is furious… - 42% How to stop procrastination when you need to play guitar - 42% While subject lines are very important, the relationship you build with your list is far more important. My goal is to make your subject line obsolete... so that someone will open your emails regardless of what the subject line is.

CEO of 52 Week Guitar Player | Content Creator with 900k+ followers across social media | Best lookin' guitar player you've ever seen
How To Increase Left Hand Speed GUITAR CHEFS. So you’re looking to increase your left hand speed, eh? Well today’s your fookin lucky day because I’m gonna show you how to do this. All you need to do is practice this exercise consistently: 1. Pick a scale 2. Play 3 notes per string 3. Only pick 1 note per string, the other notes should be hammer ons or pull offs 4. Challenge yourself with the metronome bpm If you just do that 50x per day, your left hand will turn into a beast after a month. If you find it too hard in the middle of the neck, you can always slide it up to where the frets are smaller. If you find it too easy, you can slide it down to where the frets are bigger. You can do this exercise with all of the modes. 52 Week Guitar Player is closed until mid-March. We’ll only be accepting 100 new students when we reopen. Our last cohort sold out in 2 days after opening to the public. Join the waiting list now dammit. https://lnkd.in/gPnBTtgb Okay, bye. - Brandon
