That's a false notion. I have been playing with no nails for some time now, after many years of playing with nails, and my tremolo is better than it ever was before; no more clickety-clack of nails against the strings. Volume is not a problem either; if anything I'm able to push the strings more without having to worry about getting a nasty, scratchy sound at top-volume. The idea that you loose volume without nails is another false notion. You get more higher partials present when you play with nails - hence the twangier tone - which makes it easier to project and stick out in chamber-ensambles. This is why a lot of baroque theorbo players who worked in operatic settings would use their nails, while most historical players seems to have favoured the no-nails approach for solo literature.

I sold it to a close friend and I thought it was the end of my wannabe history of guitar playing. A couple of weeks ago, my father (75 yo) gave me his guitar and I felt obligated to learn how to play and I always was intrigued by this technique. I truly thank you Brandon for putting this together... I´ll be practicing until I master this even if this is the only thing I can play correctly. Kudos and thank you man.

A tip from a newbie, make sure no one else is around when you practice it, or they will eventually ask what actually the song that you are playing. :))

I like that you're super encouraging, and this really is a great introduction, but this is one area where I think having realistic expectations is important for students. 10 minutes a day for a week or two will get you to the point where you realize that tremolo is a Mt. Everest: it's going to take months of intensive preparation and training. I've been playing classical for over 30 years now, and spent the last four months practicing an hour of tremolo every day, and I'm getting to the point where it finally, at long last, sounds good.

I'm not a big fan of talking about how long learning things take because different people learn at vastly different rates. But I really don't think "being able to start incorporating this technique" implies "you'll sound good" anyway.

Agreed, I started learning yesterday as an already competent guitar player and I can play the excerpt of Recuerdos de la alhambra that he played in the video. I've been fingerpicking for years and to me it just feels like rotating the hand so my a m and I fingers are on the same string. Doesn't feel significantly different to playing anything fast.

Just starting to learn the fretboard notes. This lesson was very clear. It gives a beginner ideas how to practice. My only guestion is what is you little finger doing? When I did folk back 50 years ago I rested it on the guiter to steady my hand. Yes, the note above about your smile.... so warm and comforting. Gives a welcome feeling. You are masterful teacher. I will work on more smiles. Thanks.

You're concisely showing me what I always wanted to do on guitar. I had a hard time understanding what exactly I wanted or where to start. Your video is so perfectly accessible and really inspired me to play every day. Thank you

Wow! Thank you for this!! This is like something I buried to learn about 18 years ago. Actually went to advance, in a way with lead solo playing on the electric. I restrung my acoustic and timely have been enjoying all the video recommendations from your channel.

This is an awesome lesson. Thank you, Brandon. I've been a self taught guitarist now for about 20 years, and in my infinite fumblings, I've learned a lot of these little techniques the "wrong way" so to speak. What I'm finding getting some good advice from guitarists like you, is that I have effectively drilled a lot of these motions into myself very very well by ruling out almost everything that doesn't work to compensate for proper technique. I really found this instructional video helpful. Your posting of tabs along with your illustration, calm manner, and good use of brevity to concisely describe the key points of these has been crucial to my maturation as a guitarist this past month. As the video started, I was thinking "No way." at 8 minutes in, I was shredding so hard I had to stop the video and spend an hour feeling awesome. Please keep up the excellent work. I'll hold onto this lesson for the rest of my life. No joke. It gave me all the key pieces of advice that 20 years out there has failed to provide in acquiring a reliable, even tremolo.

Am I the only one to notice the actual chord progression? You played Am Dm Am E, rather than Am Dm E Am. But, you are a treasure anyway

I have played classical guitar for many years, but I cannot distinguish any chords in music. I have no any feeling for chords. I think arpeggios are like melody. I admire those who knew what chords applied in music.

@@tiny5663 I only know what are the chords literally, but I can't feel what is harmonic. I feel Cmajor has little difference with Cminor, if you play Cmajor chord, I can't distinguish it was Cmajor. If I heard a piece melody, I can play it on guitar, if I heard chords, then I can do nothing.

@@flynntib I got an ear for them naturally (perfect pitch) and from producing music, I recommend you break down the notes individual and use your voice to audibly harmonize, that way your brain gets a feel for it instead of confusion with external variables, basically you have your technicals but you need to train your ears.

I believe Malaguena was the very first song Keith Richards has learnt on the guitar. Took him an entire summer. Awesome video, thank you so much Brandon!

Malagueñas isn't a particular song, but rather one the the traditional flamenco 'palos' or forms.
