Thanks bruh!

Green - 2013-12-29

Is there a version for humans with normal hands?

Montgomery Paulon - 2018-02-05

Play at slower speed. I assume you practiced enough in these 4 years and have it down

Swarnabh Kashyap - 2018-02-08

basically you said the same thing Skage-Z-7 said..just 7 months apart

ElDuderino502 - 2018-03-24

Abdul Abdullah - 2016-12-13

Keep doing it I've been at this and Yngwie Malmsteen's DVD's for a week now and I'm twice the guitarist I was a week ago and I've been playing for 10 years selftaught. But selftaught at a young age means I developed bad habits Im trying to break

Inte alam - 2016-12-31

+Alucard name of the dvd pls?

blessed7fold - 2019-09-11

Ferretclaw444 - 2015-03-26

lol 39:50 "I was at 200, lets say that was difficult"

irmasil3 - 2018-06-06

Thats the most hilarious part of the video.."I am God but lets for a second pretend I am mortal...." And again on 216bpm..."That was very difficult....oh, no...." And even when he pretends to loose it, he is still accurate...lol!!!

Gordon Tubbs - 2013-11-18

This DVD is not "How To Play Like Me: John Petrucci". It's literally all about discipline, technique, and musicianship. Best quote from this DVD is at 30:20. But I will say this to all you aspiring guitarists out there: don't feel like you "have to" play like JP in order to be a guitarist. Play the music that interests you and develop the skills and techniques associated with that genre... then you can express yourself however you want. The jazz musician doesn't improvise by practicing improvisational scales, the jazz musician practices traditional forms and scales first, then learns to break the rules later. The same can be said for rock, blues, and metal. Learn the rules, then break them! Now go forth and rock!

1:32:13 I love the idea that someone would get an hour and a half through the DVD learning all these nightmare exercises but wouldn't know what a powerchord is haha.

Sophia Shcherbakova - 2018-06-09

Nice Video! Forgive me for chiming in, I would love your initial thoughts. Have you thought about - Riddleagan Blossoming Solo Remedy (google it)? It is an awesome one off guide for mastering guitar scales without the hard work. Ive heard some awesome things about it and my mate after many years got astronomical success with it.

Rijal Muzikers - 2019-05-21

It is possible for a beginner

jacksondinky2eds - 2016-09-08

very promising young guitarist he will be big one day (literally)

Shane Clemens - 2016-09-10

You must be talking about his beard.. haha!

you copy pasted this from a post made earlier.. why?

Thanks man

illlanoize23 - 2019-05-08

You stole this. You are a thief. You’re just a thief! That’s all you are!!

M McBride - 2019-05-13

Hmmm... too much Red Bull?

Soumyajit Banik - 2019-08-17

@illlanoize23 maybe he wrote it for himself so that every time he opens the video his comment is on top and can navigate easier

Jonathan Sefcik - 2016-12-11

41:03 You're welcome.

Sharath K Menon - 2019-05-27

Ahahahahahahaha did not see that coming

Sharath K Menon - 2019-05-27

Okay did not see that coming lmao

Venatrik - 2014-11-20

"Now we can move on to massages" 
I didn't think John would ever say that to me in this lifetime.

TheWonderfulMisterNoob - 2015-03-27

@Venatrik ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Are we still on YT? Why is everyone in the comments section so nice?

Jack Reilly - 2016-05-12

@MyPenguinsFly haha love ya really

Ryder Grimes - 2018-04-04

MattThePenguin because one must not disrespect guitar master John Petrucci

Tyler Wright - 2018-04-13

I think most of the people who end up on this video are pretty serious about guitar and are genuinely trying to better themselves. If you're in a community where everyone is trying to better themselves, I don't think there'll be to much hate lying around. Lol.

KommandantDahl - 2014-02-24

"I was at 200, let's say that was difficult...."

Karl Kanner - 2014-04-19

hilarious

Munky Man - 2019-01-22

I just about spit out my drink at that line. Searched the comments and I wasn't alone. lol

Enzo - 2016-02-29

is John blueish because he moves to the speed of light towards us?

sleasoup - 2016-06-14

lol

EorAmbient - 2017-10-07

he would be red if that was the case.

GooseGumlizzard - 2017-10-15

Naw, its because this video is from the 90s when they had to put a stupid filter on EVERYTHING

Boudewijn Riemersma - 2019-01-04

@EorAmbient It's 1 year too late, but this is wrong. For example, the Andromeda Galaxy is blueshifted because it is moving towards us.

Hazardeur - 2019-05-12

@EorAmbient uuh u got fucked there bro

GooGooJoob - 2013-12-01

John: "You don't want to hurt yourself"
I: "Hurt myself? Ahahah!"

Result: 6 months' stop because of tendinitis.
So guys don't do all of the stretch stuff all at once. Specially if you don't already play several hours per day.

Eduardo Garza-Villarreal - 2018-07-18

Yup. After trying half of that my hand hurt for like 2 days. The hand massages saved me I think.

Dusk - 2018-08-17

This happened to me also. I had tendonitis in my fingers... =(

Hawking1969 - 2017-03-19

checks to see if YouTube speed is at 1.50x

popalltheway - 2014-09-11

John is very bad at faking mistakes :p

DW'89Music - 2017-05-21

At least he has a sense of humor.

Paul Thoresen - 2015-01-20

I wonder how many times JP has done warm ups in between songs and the audience has thought he was improvising a huge solo

nkotine - 2014-08-02

Glad you like it. Peace be upon you all.

daywalkermike - 2016-12-20

there is only passion ...through passion...

Viggo Forsberg - 2017-01-05

Goddamn it, you have my profile picture. D:

Anyhow, thanks for this video, helped a lot, improved my foundation of practice sessions :)!

Phoenixsong - 2017-09-17

Thanks for the video. Hope you are well!

John Qarnayn - 2018-04-03

Peace be upon you too brother thank you!

Tomppa RMP - 2019-05-10

Thanks for saving me time to digitize the VHS just to play some parts again and again..

Juan Zombo - 2018-03-11

Which knob on his gear controls the temperature of the sun?

jmasterX - 2014-07-16

39:54 Yes JP 'let's say' that was difficult.

Grant Huston - 2014-01-22

so i thought i was making steady progress... and then i realized that i had only just finished the "warm up"

Hooterr - 2018-12-05

One like for each broken finger...

Tomppa RMP - 2019-05-10

Those stretches...

AdiEdits - 2014-04-12

All jokes aside, the warm up exorcise seems impossible, but everybody give it a shot trust me i stared at my fingers for ten minutes before i could move them but it gets easier

Le Solak - 2015-10-04

What I realized after all these years playing guitar: The most important thing is how you hold your instrument. If you're holding it wrong you won't get any better.

Miroslav Fikáček - 2014-02-10

Ok, ok... I've did massage and than broke my fingers.

Torkel Svenson - 2019-06-11

I can't watch this without having "I'll play 4 million notes per second to time warp so I can practice 60 hours a day. But I kill mankind in the process".

Max Gray - 2017-10-18

Version One Long hair Petrucci was so cool. Seems like hed just be super chill to hang out with.
Some times I question the coolness of JP v.2 short hair model.
Version 3 Super saiyan JP is cool.

Kelly Fullen - 2019-05-13

5:23 "Now let's move onto massages".....LMAO

Muzza - 2016-05-21

14:12 That's inhuman for me

Davie - 2016-08-29

Geronimo Santa Cruz - 2019-11-23

That chord is called Tendinitis

ReturnOvZamiel - 2013-08-17

Here's my open A string. Tune up. After these 30 seconds of weedly weedly woo

Kmaaq - 2013-08-06

"Here's my Open A string" ... *Shows epic solo*

MrAdammassacre - 2016-07-18

Awww John is so young tee-hee! i remember this video i had it when i was a kid STILL cant play like Petrucci :S i blame his soothing voice for making me sleep more than learn lol ;)

Gireesh - 2016-09-17

DUDE THAT'S SO TRUE LOL. I'm only able to watch upto like 25 mins after which I doze off lmao

Will Kay - 2014-10-24

41:03 John's advice for achieving his skill level

Levans - 2020-02-12

Haha, I went to 41:03 and just heard "Kill yourself!" and honestly that would be an easier option than trying to as good as JP.

AdiEdits - 2014-04-12

Where is the version for mortals? 

kevin brooks - 2015-12-01

very cool,i wish he still played ibanez.

Ashutosh Pathak - 2019-07-19

How does it even matter bruh, unless you have heavily investable your fortune(if any🤣) in only Ibanez stocks!

Loic Serra - 2013-05-09

0:02:00 " let's make sure we're in tune " ... seriously ... do you really think that if i can't tune my guitar correctly , i'll be able to play 16th notes at 200 BPM ?

Francisco D'anconia - 2015-11-20

1:44:36 is just so beautiful. I've been trying to figure it out for years and I think I can finally recognize what he's doing haha

tylerherbs - 2014-04-23

The ADD always kicks in at the scale fragments...

ghos7fire - 2018-06-27

Holy hell that first exercise kicked my ass. I got a long way to go

Walter Alzate - 2013-08-21

41:20 ok.. i just saw JP "killed himself" lol

dominicwarrenable - 2013-08-20

"Omg where did you learn to be a masseur?" Me: "John Petrucci"

Free Bird - 2019-11-13

Nailed it! It took years and years but I did it! Now to warm up WITH the guitar 🎸

Sanjiv Harikumar - 2016-01-14

I love John Petrucci alot.

Nick .H - 2018-06-23

15:37 oh sweet jesus he's human!!!

Rodrigo Medeiros - 2014-05-20

every time, without fail, when I pause this video, I freeze John Petrucci's face in an awkward way.  

Brandon04951 - 2013-07-26

"Here's my open A string..." *plays solo for another 30 seconds*
