Drill 1Stop Fighting Wide Stretches

You Know Exactly Where It Breaks
- One hand lands. The other lands late. Every fast run smears.
- Clean at slow tempo. Push it, and the accuracy just vanishes.
- The run feels fine β until the string change. Then both hands lose time.
- You play it clean, but the last string you touched keeps ringing under it.
- Your hands jam up. Your picking tightens. You're fighting the guitar.
- You hit record. Same tiny spot, take after take, getting worse every time.
You've started to wonder if it's your hands.
It isn't.
You've been practicing around the breakdown instead of fixing it.
Why Years Of Practice Didn't Fix It
You've watched the videos.
You've read about pick slanting and pick angle.
You've put in the hours.
And the same passage still falls apart in the same place.
Repeating something that already breaks does not fix it. Push the tempo anyway and you rehearse the broken movement faster, until it starts feeling normal.
Step 1 β Isolate
Slow it down until every note is clean and controlled. That is your real starting tempo, not the number you wish it was.
Step 2 β Locate
Find the exact beat, finger movement, or string change where it falls apart. If 90% already works, every rep spent on the 90% is time you don't get back.
Step 3 β Name It
Call the real problem what it is: timing, synchronization, tension, or an unfamiliar movement. Then run the drill built for that breakdown.
You do not need more reps everywhere. You need the right reps on the exact thing that keeps failing.
Four Drills For What's Actually Breaking
You do not need another folder full of exercises. You need four drills that expose one bottleneck at a time. Clean at 50 BPM first. Then 100, and only when it actually holds.
Drill 2Force Both Hands To Hit Together
That tiny doubled note. That fretted note landing just after the pick. That string change where everything separates. Train the gap until both hands land as one.
Drill 3Make String Changes Flow
Stop attacking every new string like a separate movement. Train the pick to travel through them in one motion, and fast shifts stay fluid instead of stuttering.
Drill 4Stop Your Legato Fading Out
Picked notes hit hard. Then the pull-offs fade underneath them and the line goes uneven. Isolate the weak movement and build it back to equal volume.

Why Bernth Looks For What Actually Breaks
Bernth has 1.5M+ followers and has helped 50,000+ students push past technique plateaus by finding the mechanical breakdown hiding underneath them. Not more random drills. Not more theory to think about while your hands still fall apart.
βMost players don't have a speed problem. They have a synchronization and control problem, and they've never been shown how to train it correctly.β
β BernthThat diagnosis-first approach is exactly what The 4-Drill Clean Playing System puts into your practice.
Same Breakdowns. Different Results.
50,000+ guitarists have trained with Bernth. Three of them, in their own words.
βStuck at 110 BPM for months, a week later, I'm hitting 135 BPM clean on scale runs, no flamming.β
β Jason M.
βMy biggest issue was string noise. The string-control work made a huge difference.β
β Alex R.
βI could tremolo pick fast, until I added fretted notes. Everything fell apart. The sync work fixed it.β

Still Not Sure This Is For You?
Is this built for my skill level?
Yes, if you're intermediate or advanced. You should already know basic alternate picking, pentatonic shapes, and have some sweep exposure.
Still learning those? Skip this for now. It will overwhelm you.
How much time does this take?
Not another hours-long routine. Start at 50 BPM and stay there until the movement is completely clean. Then move to 100.
Give it one week of daily practice before deciding whether it worked.
Is it really free? What's the catch?
Completely free. All 4 drills, 8 play-along videos, Guitar Pro files, PDF tabs, backing tracks, and the full ebook.
You'll also get more guitar lessons from Bernth by email. Unsubscribe anytime.
What kind of playing is this for?
Shred, metal, and rock. Especially if speed, synchronization, precision, and clean technique matter to you.
Focused on acoustic, jazz, or mostly strumming? This isn't for you.
What if several things are broken?
Don't guess. Run Isolate. Locate. Name It. first. It shows you what's actually failing and which drill targets it.
If several show up, work the drills in order.
Play It Clean At Full Speed
You already have more speed than your playing shows. Close the gap between your hands and the fast runs stop smearing. The take lands. The string change holds. You stop fighting the guitar and start playing it.
- 4 drills for your exact weak points
- 8 play-alongs at 50 + 100 BPM
- PDF tabs + Guitar Pro files
- With/without-guitar backing tracks
It's free. Give it one focused week and hear the part that always broke finally hold.
