  • Satch leads are also rhythmically interesting. Even when he plays pentatonics he makes it interesting fresh

  • i think people should listen carefully to Steve Hackett one of the living genius-maestro
    front guitarist of Genesis in 71-77 (take the definitive edition remasters 94 if you like the real sound of the drums please too)

  • Too much gain when you play the dive bombs ! the secret of Joe is to delete – mute to only have the harmonics with dive bombs and not all of the gain with it

  • Great video my friend! I learned the whole "Surfin with the Alien" album when it first came out. It took me about a month to figure out Joe's licks but eventually nailed it. I saw him touring the album for that year in Boston at the Avalon. Joe was my mentor because of that album. That album and his playing on it just blew me away! The back up band was playing and I was just watching them and a guy next to me said, "these guys are pretty good huh"? I briefly looked at him and said, not bad. Little did I know I was talking to my mentor JOE SATRIANI!! Had know Idea. He had shaved his head that year and was wearing sunglasses in the club, I thought it was weird. He started his show and I was mortified!! My favorite guitar player was trying to have conversation with me and all I was trying to do was wait for him to get on stage and play!! Lost my opportunity to ask him questions about his playing! Lost my touch with greatness! BUMMER!

  • To me, action (string height) is something to always point out. From experience, an off the shelf action makes a lot of Joe's stuff very frustrating to do. Especially when you are allowing the fingering hand to do a lot of the work. I know I spent the first 4 years of learning guitar and trying to learn his style was infuriating because the strings were too high. No one had explained "action" to me. It wasn't until I asked my new teacher how to actually do this kind of stuff. He took my guitar and pushed down on the string and said "Your strings are too damn high, take it and get the action adjusted lower". After my lesson, I took it to the local luthier and asked him to put new strings on and lower the action. The next day, I picked my guitar up and things were so much easier. I still had to work to get the two hand tapping stuff down but I didn't get that ringing sound when I tapped the strings.

  • You should of a habits of Michael Hedges video…. Don't think I didn't notice that pick-tuck and the finger picking towards the end there. That was very smooth.

  • Damn dude. Watching you for the first time. Inspiring to say the last. Satch fan for decades. Haven't picked up my axe for nearly 2 years. Learned so much from Joe and Steve. Now I'm learning from you. So much content to absorb. Respect ????

  • i'm a Joe Satriani fan myself but ALLAN HOLDSWORTH is THE MASTER OF LEGATO… even satch look up to him & the other guitar heroes like EVH..

    a real true legato has no pull offs.. like what holdsworth did..

  • I don't know HOW I missed these "Habits" series…I have been watching for a couple years…but I…LOVE…THEM! I completely agree, learning the habits is much better than just repeating riffs and licks. Great video as always.

  • That's exactly what I do I pick and choose techniques I like from my favorite players so for me
    I take from mostly vai and morello …throw some srv in there with some bluesy licks any bright melodic scales I love …but I got a soft spot for those phryigian dominant scales Marty Friedman plays

  • I would to see more of your Gear Break Down and effect Chain order. You always nail the sound besides excellent technique and theory.

  • One thing I will point out about Joe. When he does the harmonics above the fretboard he actually switches hands. There are natural harmonics at the pickups. There is a video of Joe talking about them and showing where they

  • Hey man, question: Does my guitar need floyd rose to not make the guitar out of tune when using the whammy bar to much? I have ibanez guitar.Or is it the setup of tremolo? Thanks

  • Great video….. Thanks for choosing the best guitarist's habit….. Satch is a musical genius and we all get to learn lots of things from him, not only guitar playing but also composition and that's what makes him a complete music god…. ????????????

  • Discipline is the key to mastery..everything from raising kids to love requires discipline in order to keep balance and understanding…Joe uses discipline in everything he does ..just look at how he utilizes feedback in his music..many decades ago feedback was just an annoying sound..Hendrix improvised and used feedback to his advantage but Satriani took that shit to a whole new level….it only comes from discipline.
