German Lightspeeder" Schauss, recognized all over the globe as one of the world's fastest guitarists, takes you through the process.

You'll even learn how to create and vary your own patterns, and make the vital connection between your mind, picking hand, and fretting hand to enable optimal speed. If rapid-fire guitar licks, scales, and arpeggios are your goals, take this book home, go online and retrieve the video and audio, and start practicing!" Review: Are you willing to put in the time to be SICK FAST? Here is your lighter to the dynamite. - One word: SPEED. These exercises are what your first guitar teacher told you practice but multiply into 500 varients. You will become faster, more agile, your picking will be fluid and smooth with no struggle. Put in the time and you will shred. OOHHHHHH you will shred. Review: I found it was easy to follow - Ok. I received this on time. As I opened the book and glanced through it, I found it was easy to follow. German has a series of warm up techniques that you should do before you begin any of the exercises. It's perfect! They warm up excercises really do help. The lessons are organized and work in a methodical way to build your technique level and speed up. With my experience level, this book has built up my level rather quickly with my muscle memory and level of playing. The other extra bonus is the online video streaming of the examples. Instead of having a clanky DVD and needing a DVD player and video monitor, you can stream off a smartphone or iPad, placed adjacent to your book on a music stand as you practice in front of a mirror. This makes a HUGE difference in how easy it is to set yourself up to practice. I highly recommend this book if you want to learn how to play fast by learning to coordinate your left and right hand and learn good technique from German. He's an excellent and methodical instructor. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,774,560 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #2,890 in Guitar Songbooks #3,119 in Guitars (Books) #4,172 in Rock Music (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 39 Reviews | ## Images ![German Schauss's Speed Guitar: Learn Lightning Fast Alternate Picking and Coordination, Book & Online Video/Audio - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81ObgyCMSwL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Are you willing to put in the time to be SICK FAST?
