Its a brand new episode of This is Why You Suck at Guitar, here with your best buddy, Uncle Ben Eller!!! In this episode, i'm going to share a heartbreaking tale of an extremely handsome young man who spent his youth practicing the typical 4 note per sting 1234 chromatic exercise in his quest to build alternate picking power.... and failed, because that typical picking workout routine only works 50% of the potential string changing mechanics involved in alternate picking! Because i care about you all, i'm going to help you keep from repeating my mistakes. I'm going to show you the BEST way to practice the traditional 4 note per string chromatic exercise, as well as show you all a brand new picking drill called the Punisher that is going to take you on a full-body workout designed to make you into an alternate picking MACHINE like John Petrucci, Andy Wood, Guthrie Govan, or Francis Bubbletrousers. If you practice these things on the daily, i guarantee you'll be on speaking terms with your real dad again in NO time. What have you got to lose? Oh yeah, YOUR DAD! Playing my Suhr Modern Satin into my Kemper Profiler, as usual. Thanks for watching! What do YOU suck at that i should cover on a future episode of TIWYSAG?
