Proven Way To Learn Solos Quicker

Challenged myself to learn the solo for Hot For Teacher in record time. After getting the notes down I was able to get very close in less than 6 hours. See if the Matrix Method works for you.

"Do not try to bend the string, that's impossible. Only try to realize the truth, there is no string." Me: "Screw off weird bald kid." (bends string two steps)! haha!

At 50% you can really hear the Blues influence on this song.

A wise man once said: If you can play it slow, you can play it fast.

Dude I start at 125% and then slow down. I get the tough part over first!!! Thanks for the lesson!!! Keep Rocking it out!!!

Just as I'm learning the solo of One. The part right after the 3 bends at 21 is killing me right now! I'll try this awesome method

I cant even do a pinch harmonic but this totally makes sense, good tip, thanks.

Excellent Tip! I’ve had this experience with another VH Song actually! Hang em high. I’ve played it so many times all the way through over the years that it eventually got faster and faster. Then one day I listened to the song, realized I had been playing it way too fast, and when I slowed down to jam to the song, all the tricky parts felt super easy! It never occurred to me that it could be a powerful practice tool!

Thanks for the shot of inspiration! Your playing is awesome too! Subscribed! 👍🏼

I wish Rocksmith would go over 100% Speed for the same reason. It's kind of frustrating that it doesn't.

Master of puppets here I come 😂😂😂😂 dude if this works I will send you an Aussie beer of your choice!

[thelastscarecrow]

I do this as well but I spend a lot of time at 90% and really only use 100% when I feel I have perfect at 90%. Love your videos!

SPECTACULAR method! It seems so simple, and yet I've never thought to try it like that! Brilliant! I really like the way you walk us through the tips, too...very easy to grasp and enjoyable. "Five (out of five) stars." 😎👍

So funny this should come up as a suggested video AFTER I learned my first solo haha 😊. I know I will have watched this video before but it was so long ago I can't even remember when. So now, watching it after I learned my first solo, I see that I went through the process of learning the solo in this exact way. How awesome is that 🙂

Exactly how I practice since first time I play, it helped me play some solos like Nothing Else Matters, Sanitariums second solo, and she wolf.
Thank god for rocksmith videos on YouTube

[bangkokskater]

man, thank you for saying it does take hours to learn a solo good... truth right there. Expectations have to be set right

this reminds me of my favourite frugal technique for getting warm in winter; you go outside and then come back in again*
