Play Fast On Guitar Article PicIn this video, you learn how to play fast on guitar.

General wisdom would have you believe you must play slowly and then gradually increase the speed to get to the level of fluency and clarity you need when practising something on guitar. While in part this is true, there is much more to it.

In this lesson, I am joined by guitar practice expert Mike Philippov of PracticeGuitarNow.com to discuss and demonstrate how to develop the technique necessary to play fast guitar licks and riffs.

Mike is the “go to guy” for all things shred guitar.

He has helped hundreds (if not thousands) of people to play guitar fast and clean.

Mike will run you through the mechanics necessary to increase your speed on the instrument including:

• The importance of isolating the hands and focusing on the efficiency of movement in each

• What to focus on when training yourself to play licks and riffs at breakneck speed

• Why practising slowly all the time will not help you to play fast on guitar and what you to do in addition to this
