Believe in Your Dreams (Shred Part)

Read on if you wish to become a shred master. But enter at your own peril, this one is not easy!


Pro Tips:

- Alternate picking mandatory - one must switch between downstrokes and upstrokes to maximize efficiency and speed.

- When changing strings, the direction of your pickstroke must continue alternating. Resist the urge to 'sweep' the pick onto the next string and pick 2 strings using the same stroke direction. Down, up, down, up - always.

- During the first measure, your 1st finger must take the 13th and 14th frets, 2nd finger the 15th, 3rd finger 16th, and 4th finger 17th

- During the second measure, you must play in the 10th position for the first motif, and up to the 12th for the second. Watch the video carefully and note where my hand switches positions.


Theory Talk:

- Yeah, there's a lot of notes in this - but guess what? They're all in the A minor scale. So there's only 7 different ones - A, B, C, D, E, F, and G. How about that?

- The chords here are: A minor, F major, G major

Ahhh thats so complicated-looking and you do it so flawlessly! It must have taken a LOT of practice to get that dexterity!! Also I saw you on Tuesday and you guys were AMAZING as always!! I dunno if spoilers are a thing here so I’ll just say there’s a song you did I cannot WAIT to see broken down in the far, far future! There was some baller guitar work! Have a chill tour!

Dezzi

That was crazy cool!!

I've been starting to work more on my scales and technique again after my improvement stagnating for a year or so, this riff will be a great goal and totally possible with the help of the instructions. Thanks for these lessons Phobos, they're not only showing me how to play TWRP songs but helping me improve as a musician overall!

Can't wait to try this one when I get back home! The specific instructions will so help. Tonight is gonna rock! 🤘

Krissy

Also! Do you know when you might be open for more lessons? I’ve been waffling for ages and I think I might go for it next time :)

Shiro

Always wondered how you played this part so flawlessly, amazing!

Sauce_Equalizer

I’ve always loved this part of the song! Hope tour is going well so far! Safe travels, dude, and see ya tonight! :)

Oh wow—that does sound intense! Gets the blood pumping, though! See you tonight at the show, guitar man—Phoenix was amazing, now onto the next :)
