Most Useful Guitar Techniques
Finally it came on top. Hammers ons and pull offs are used more than other techniques. It's so common that I accidentally once did hammer on when I was practicing between chords.
Hammer on and pull off are two very important techniques. Have been using in blues, rock and metal. And guitarists use these more often.
If you ever check some technique of guitar then you will realize how important is alternate picking. Its more important than whammy bar, tapping, sliding or dive bomb. Tremolo picking is very close to alternate picking. Its kinda faster version of alternate picking. Its not always used in many genres but alternate picking is used in many genres.
If tremolo picking is here then alternate picking should be here and should be ahead of tremolo picking. Alternate picking is very useful. Deserves to be in top 10.
Palm muting, tapping, tremolo picking, dive bomb, whammy bar, Sliding higher than Alternate picking?
I never thought my one vote would make this on top. Yeah its useful. But I can't think of being at number 1.
Always use this at the end of my solo
Useful to add emotion to solos, riffs, etc
Very useful technique. Especially for thrash and death metal. Helps to create heavy rhythm picking.
Palm muting is nothing if you just palm mute strings and do nothing.
Great technique. But comparably guitarists use tapping lesser than other techniques.
My favorite whammy bar technique.
Its not like that it should be on very top. But sweep picking is actually important. Although not like alternate picking, hammer on, pull off or bending but its important for shredding. I have seen some guitarists use it often in their songs.
