Thanks for trying out this killer workout for picking speed and hand sync! What technique do you need some workouts for?

[michaelcrenshaw]

An episode on metronome use would be good. Great vid as usual.

[paulowen]

Yes, please make a video about how we suck at using the metronome!

[huskiefan]

1:01 "Shredi Knights" I love you man. I just instantly love you 😂

[mikesurel]

Absolutely would love the metronome episode. Stuff like this is the closest I have ever come to actual lessons. Please and thank you.

At first you listen to the lick in the exercise and think, it's not difficult and then you take a look a closer look at how you're supposed to change lead fingers throughout the riff. Then you realize, holy h*ll it's not easy 😀
the real lesson hidden behind the pattern. 👌
Excellent. Thanks

I've already earned the respect of my step dad, so I'm working on earning my cats respect with this new exercise. Thanks, Uncle Ben!

[ProfessorJM]

Everything Ben teaches/recommends works, given I make sure to do everything at step-dad speed, and progress. Thanks Uncle B 👌👍😃

Those Modern Terras are so gorgeous. The folks at Suhr really know what they're doing. I would love a metronome video, too.

[jacksaintjack]

Great video. Not only is the content spot on, but your ability to make it easy to follow along with you but also taking your time to explain what you're doing is absolutely super.

[michaelthompson]

I did this exercise while also having a cold for maximum authenticity! Tried it with Harmonic Minor and that's a tricky variation as well. Spot on as usual, mate🤘🏼

[laivasimo]

Yup, the sound of this makes me think of dwarfs dancing trepak. And i can not make them stop or go away.

[yodajazzcat]

There's NO EXCUSE for not subscribing to this excellent content, you shredding slackers!!!

[Cbuzz]

Thanks Uncle Ben. This is great. Hope you're feeling better!

[bennyharderguitar]

This is one area I struggle with. I’m definitely going to do this exercise.

[txlespaul]

"Let's hear that lick again, at stepdad speed." My hands won't coordinate, but my eyebrows do. Love you, Ben!

[MattLarscheid]

Hands down one of the best exercises I've come across lately. The way Ben explains everything is so clear and precise for any player.

[jodecaesteker]

Playing for about 28 years here. This - and your whole channel - is absolutely genius! (PS: dry humor is the best). Cheers!

[ninertangojuliet]

I never practice with a metronome. IThat is something I would like to change. So some metronome mentorship would a great. 🎸

[sole__doubt]

This one worked for me. I run through the exercise a few times a day.
