Golden Ratio: The 5 Steps To PERFECT Picking Technique!

The 'Golden Ratio' principle has helped me with understanding how to connect different playing styles and picking approaches like alternate picking, sweep picking, hybrid picking, economy picking and more - and the exercise presented in this video will help you with that as well :)

Thanks so much to all my Patrons for making these videos possible!

I am new to your channel and have been so impressed by your humble personality and fantastic musicality! I really admire the consistency and determination in practice that serious technical players seem to have in common. I am going to sign up for your course and work toward being more disciplined in my own practice sessions!

Every single time I watch your videos I grab my guitar!!

[Pit_Lord]

I’m going to leave this here because I think it will help people a lot as it helped me improve my technique dramatically and to be able to spot and correct inconsistencies on the spot. Practice in front of a mirror. It also will help separate your mind from the mechanics of picking and over thinking it...because what you see is the opposite of what you’re doing, if you think too hard about it you’ll mess up. Give it a go.

Best guitar teacher online ...hands down !

I love how humble you are, while humbling me over my bad habits! Hahaha. Every video you post is pure gold.

I recently watched your “who is Bernth episode” and I must say I was super impressed by your accomplishments. It might be a long shot but I would love to see you on an acoustic guitar. Is there any chance we can get an acoustic lesson?

[chrisn]

One of those abstract concepts that I always could feel was not quite right, but I could never put words to it and work to correct it. Super helpful lesson, as always. Thanks again Bernth

Wow this lesson just fixed something that I have not been able to nail down for thirty years. I can’t thank you enough for bringing a whole new level of enjoyment to my playing experience 🙏

Er ist einfach der König aller Gitarrenlehrer! Verstehe kein Wort Englisch aber er hilft mir weiter wie noch keiner bisher🤣 nen einschaltbarer deutscher Untertitel wäre klasse!

[giannispagonis]

You have the best exercises that i have ever seen, so glad I discovered your channel man. And congratulations for 100k, i hope you will grow far more than that, keep up the great work!!

I was hoping for a tutorial on how to position my picking hand rather than just exercises. It seems like that is the real key - the golden ratio you spoke of.

Can we play "Tool" songs using Golden Ratio picking technique? :p

[Keno]

Dude I was working specifically on this concept, I was able to catch myself due to a previous video u had about playing in front of a mirror. It has help me tremendously. Thank u so much for all ur help and critical info😊

[joseortiz-nfsj]

That's my ultimate Achilles heel! I know my picking hand is practically crap. Thanks for the class

[silverkinjal]

[bradhill]

wow..i'm ecstatic there's someone else out there who understands the golden ratio...i've been incorporating this for some time now & it's elevated my playing considerably.
