Dude, you don't get enough credit for being basically a genius. Seriously, the observations you've made, tested, & refined are only paralleled by your explanations of them.
Thanks for sharing, Bernth!

Sir, I request you to do a lesson series related to theory. From the very first level [ 0 ] . Because I have been your YouTube student for 3 years or more and the things I have learned from you are priceless.❤

In my opinion, I recommend that you learn many songs of your level and then your brain will have an easier time playing these songs faster, and thus repeat until you reach the speed you want. I remember that when I played classical guitar a lot, my friends asked me how you manage to play so fast with your fingers? And now I realized that it was because I had moved the fingers of my right hand so many times that I could move them super fast, fitting the fingers together. notes with the left hand, this worked for me and I'm going to try this method with the electric guitar hehe

Herr Bernth, you are the absolute best on the planet. Best workouts for someone who fell away from playing for a bit. This turns losing some skill into a vast opportunity.

Hey Bernth! May I suggest a video about the parts before in-between and after a actual practice session? What I mean is stuff like stretching and loosing up you muscles. So what are you doing before after a session in order to prevent hurting yourself.

3 years ago i had to move (continents) so I had to sell my guitars and then I didnt have enough money or certainty to get a guitar again UNTIL NOW.
Just got a good ol' Ibanez RG but realized I forgot many things, skill wise too, 3 years without practice is a lot. Only a few riffs come out from the back of my brain & muscle memory.
Somehow I realized I have the opportunity to learn guitar again. It's funny... This "if I could start over" ... Turns out I can. 😅
Thanks for the video! I'm making a roadmap of topics I want to learn, I'll definitely fill-in with your content :) Keep up the good work, you're a great inspiration!

Hey Bernth, Your exercises are awesome! I`ve been in patreon for 2 weeks and I see progress already. Thank you so much for putting out this great content, you are truly amazing dude!!

[regonalbaldwin]

🙌🏼 Your instructions are making me feel like it’s possible to get through this fog I find myself in. Thank you so very much!

[ckbetqi]

Hi I am your new student. Have been watching your videos since long time ago. Now I'm finally ready for your lessons. 😅

[smokerx]

i hit a wall when it came to any growth in my guitar skills back before you tube was around i became so discouraged i put it down for 20 years. i started playing again a while back and was surprised at how much i had lost. hoping some of your tips on here help out. thanks for putting this within our reach.

[sorenahlback]

All five are great exercises and this video is for sure going into my practice library!

If you don't know: THATS WHAT HAPPENED TO PAT MARTINO! Pat lost everything and had to start guitar again and went even better than ever before. His Book is insanely interesting. greetings from Tyrol

million thanks to you..

IMPORTANT QUESTION - Do I have to fully to understand why I'm practicing these scales in order for them to help me?

[gitarman]

I would have learned hybrid
After more than 1/2 century as a guitarist, those unused fingers on the picking hand refuse to move as commanded
So although a piece like Cliffs of Dover is relatively easy in all other ways I need to tuck the pick and use thumb and forefinger to play that lick up to speed it’s simply not authentic sounding

[WatchRayPlay]

Hey man, I've been playing about 20 years as well, but haven't scratched the surface of your level. My biggest weakness now I feel is a lack of understand or application of music theory, in making my own music or just jamming. If you could place relative importance on theory over technique (I chose to roll a 9 on technique and a 1 on theory), where would you rate these on your relearning quest?

[nunyabiz]

Love the techniques and tips. But every Bernth Video: “Let me show you this really easy technique/riff”” -- plays a shred solo that would put Yngwie to shame.... 😛 Just kidding! Keep doing what you’re doing man... I like the challenge!

If I needed to start all over again I would switch my sitting position to classic to not screw up my back

[kawafanatic]

I have been playing for 4-5 months now but not consistently so I describe myself as a complete beginner still. I know 7-8 basic open cords, but that's it. The routines shown in this video seem very difficult for me. Should I still implement them in my practice or is it to early for them? I am just wondering because you mentioned at the beginning, that these would be exercises you would go for if you lost all your knowledge and had to start from scratch but for me even after a couple of months of basic playing these seem to be very advanced. Thanks a lot!

You mean I Don't have to go to the crossroads?! lol
