Not only would your speed increase, but your ability to improvise and your confidence to learn new music would increase as well.
Truthfully, learning to play fast electric guitar isn’t a walk in the park, it’s not going to cost you your first-born child either. Learning this skill will involve smart strategies and hard work in order to improve upon better technique as your reflexes quicken. Here are some tips that can help that process develop.
1. Let your fingers curve around the guitar neck. If you’re looking for long-term results with good technique to play fast electric guitar, then you’ll want your fingers to create a nice curve around the neck. Attempting to let your palms flatten or your fingers to straighten will only make you go slower and stall your learning process. Have your fingers poised for action with that powerful curve that will allow for smoother and faster transitions between notes.
2. Have precision of where you push your fingers. When you’re not paying much attention to the quality of your skills on the electric guitar fret board, sloppy placement of your fingers will trip you up and slow you down. To keep buzzing noises from sounding when you play, keep your fingers closer to the fret markers. Overall, focus on letting your fingers fall into place on the frets before applying pressure in order to prevent some mistakes.

3. Keep your hand perpendicular to the guitar neck. Some guitar riffs that come around can surprise us and cause us to make quick adjustments that are not beneficial to the flow of the song. If you allow your wrists to curve around at an angle to compensate for a difficult lick, you might be slowing down your ability to make it to the next section. Keeping your wrist and hand perpendicular to the fret board will set you up to move more fluently from section to section.
4. Give your fingers a couple stretches. If you feel like your fingers are stiff and can’t perform as well as they should, loosen them up with some healthy stretches. Bend them back towards your wrist and let them sit for a few seconds. This will let them know that it’s time to play fast electric guitar.
5. Embrace awkward chords that are difficult to form. Some of the more difficult chords to play on guitar are the reason that guitarists get frustrated and give up, but you need to use those as an opportunity to develop. Take those difficult or awkward chords and practice them over and over in order for you fingers to get used to the constant strain and stretch on the frets.
When you first learned the guitar, you may have thought that it was simply fun, but learning to play fast electric guitar can give you possibilities in careers. Put these tips to some good use and start playing faster and more aggressive on the guitar.

How to Build Electric Guitars (Paperback) $18.8  In the past few years the market for electric guitar kits and parts has exploded. For every two enthusiasts, there are four opinions on how properly to fill woodgrain. In this book, Will Kelly cuts through all that noise and shows how, with a little patience and some inexpensive tools, the average person can turn a modest investment into a gig-worthy instrument and perhaps even a lifelong hobby. Kelly presents guitar-building in a progressive fashion, beginning with a simple Stratocaster-style kit with a bolt-on neck and continuing on to a "relic`d" Telecaster-style build, two Gibson-style set-neck models, and a custom double-neck mash-up. Because each build is more involved than the previous, the reader builds on his or her skill set and acquires only the tools necessary for the reader`s level of interest. Kelly shows how to apply finishes, choose and install hardware, wire electronics, execute the final assembly, and set up the finished guitar for proper action and intonation.  |

Build & Burn $6.38 The Loved Ones could never be accused of being insincere, and you’d be even harder-pressed to make such a claim after listening to Build & Burn, the band’s sophomore release for Fat Wreck Chords. An honest desperation careens through every note and nook of the record, ensuring that even the predictable and slightly derivative nature of its songs doesn’t take away from how enjoyable the album is. Sure, almost anyone could play the uncomplicated chord progressions and straightforward melodies well, but only a select few could do it with as much heart as these Philly punks; the end result is a set of unforgivingly catchy songs that won’t get out of your head even when you want them to (see “Sarah’s Game” or “I Swear”). Build & Burn is an album about survival, a message that rings loudly through the Loved Ones’ stomping rhythms, throaty vocals, and ringing chords, not to mention the occasional piano tinkering and Southern-charmed flavoring. So whether it’s in cuts like the churning “Pretty Good Year” or the musingly acoustic “Brittle Heart,” the group performs with the underdog spirit of that kid perpetually knocked down on the playground who never fails to get back up again. Ten songs in just 30 minutes, Build & Burn is a quick listen in which the Loved Ones — with a little help from their friends in the Hold Steady and Bouncing Souls, among others — stick to what they do best, and produce a solid album of passionate pop-punk. ~ Corey Apar, Rovi Performers: Bob Strakele – Vocals (Background); Franz Nicolay – Saw, Organ (Hammond), Harmonica, Accordion, Organ, Piano; Buick Audra – Vocals (Background), Vocals; Christopher Gonzalez – Bass, Guitar; Dave Hause – Vocals, Guitar; Dave Walsh – Guitar; Mike Sneeringer – Drums; Pete Steinkopf – Vocals (Background), Guitar |

Boats to Build $14.42 Four years after the release of the tepid Old Friends, Guy Clark signed to the newly revitalized Elektra Asylum label seemingly dedicated to recording and marketing American roots music. Teaming once again with producer Miles Wilkinson, Clark delivered an ambitious, soulful, and state-of-the-art batch of songs. There is an all-star cast here, as per usual. Nonetheless Clark and Wilkinson solidified their vision, and here it works seamlessly, and virtually all of the musical arrangements and sounds serve the songs. Players and singers included Jerry Douglas, Sam Bush, Verlon Thompson, Foster & Lloyd, Marty Stuart, Emmylou Harris, Rodney Crowell, Suzy Ragsdale, Brian Ahern, and drummer Kenny Malone. The opener, a light country shuffle flavored with the blues entitled “Baton Rouge,” is catchy in the same way that “Homegrown Tomatoes” was nine years earlier. The tile track, written with Thompson, is an intimate look at what goes on inside a man’s mind when he works with his hands and the universe he encounters there. Douglas’ slide guitar solo and the gorgeous Thompson harmonies deepen the impact. “Picasso’s Mandolin,” co-authored with Foster & Lloyd, is a lilting number with hand percussion, Bush’s mandolin playing sad and sweet, and three-part harmonies by Clark with Foster & Lloyd. What strikes the listener in the first five tracks is how spare everything is, no matter how many or few instruments are on a given cut. Wilkinson sculpts the sound around Clark’s stiletto fine lyrics. Perhaps this is best encountered on “Hey, Where’d You Get This Number.” It’s a humorous funky country tune with a quartet and no backing vocals, and Clark’s wit sizzles in the mix, full of cruelty and irony. But it also comes through in the tender and moving “I Don’t Love You Much Do I.” Stuart’s mandolin and Thompson’s guitar wind around one another, framing Clark’s creaking and elegant lyrics as he sings them in his usual slow, deliberate manner, getting every ounce of insight and emotion from the syllables. It took four more years to get another record out of Clark, but it’s a winner all the way around. ~ Thom Jurek, Rovi Performers: Bill Caswell – Jaw Harp, Jew’s-Harp; Jerry Douglas – Slide Guitar, Dobro; Kenny Malone – Snaps, Conga, Percussion, Drums; Lee Roy Parnell – Slide Guitar; Marty Stuart – Mandolin; Sam Bush – Mandolin; Bill Lloyd – Vocals (Background), Guitar, Vocals; |
