In this lesson we show how the CAGED system works in over minor chords, arpeggios & scales.

My name is Trident, I joined Synner a couple months ago but am just now introducing myself. I’ve been playing guitar since my freshman year of high school and im now 20 years old. I didn’t really take it seriously until my Jr year of high school though. I don’t know much theory or anything but I can play some songs and noodle around. As most of us are here for, im here to improve my guitar playing!

I have just started to learn sweep picking and my downstrokes are ok muting wise, but the upstrokes are a sloppy mess but i dont know how to mute the strings properly

can anyone help?

Just let me start off by saying how excited i am to get back into teaching and learning more guitar. I love this website you guys. fucking nailed it.
what got me back to it was honestly i started learning and teaching drums. A7x being my absolute favorite band of all time so obviously those were the first songs i wanted to learn and

Holy F@#$^* SHit i thought syn's solo progressions were insane but i never noticed how complex the drums really are in a lot of Wackermans work. specifically on paradigm and the entire stage albumn really.

BUt anyway learned them all on guitar so fuck it drums should be cake compared to syn. *the cake is a lie*

However...i did learn the song...... yet ive only been playing drums for 2 months now...using an invisible drum kit... yes im serious my drum kit is invisible

well its a beta app in virtual reality to be more specific...but no seriously invisible

well anyway i chart drums tracks for the vr app,, which is similar to guitarhero, except the kit is real, and its FUCKING invisible.
*cough*
so anyway my question was if at all possible to whom it may concern i wanted to ask for permission to use one of the tracks for a tutorial on how to build charts and kits for the app. with hopes to try and get more and more people into charting their own drums instead of flooding my inbox with song request as i am 1 of 3 charters atm trying to revive and entire guitar hero and rockband community into REAL invisible drums.

it wont be played all the way through and maybe only 30 or 40 seconds of the audio will be heard. but anyway thought id try my luck.
I currently have what im almost 99.9% sure is the most accurate chart for the stages drum track that doesn't exist anywhere else except wackermans brain. and my chart folder.
i made it an obsession to get the drums perfectly accurate..

Does anybody have any tabs or video tutorials on how to play the 8 finger tapping section from the synyster gates masterclass solo.(preferably second part since there’s already a tutorial for the first part on YouTube). It’d be a huge help for me to crack this solo cause there’s no proper tabs nor tutorials of this anywhere on the internet. Login to view embedded media

In this lesson we tackle the parent shape of the CAGED system; its correlating major chord, arpeggio, pentatonic & major scales.

Anyone know where i can buy the schecter hellwin amp head and cabinet, i've looked everywhere and i can't find it.

Hi everyone! I'm Ali. I teach music, including beginning guitar, although it's not my main instrument and the course is almost exclusively acoustic and classical. I've played at the beginner and intermediate level for about 20 years, and I'm embarrassed to admit that electric guitar (especially lead) intimidates me to no end. So I'm here to get over that fear in an awesome community.

I'm here for the lessons.

Hey everyone!

I'm a veteran who just got shot defending our rights and way of life, life is short, I've been looking everywhere for a Hellwin Amp for years, I have the cabinets. I would love to play on one before I die... I can fly to you even but I'd feel some serious FOMO if I died before I got to play one. Hell I can pay you even... I've got not much to live for as my dreams been crushed but this would mean the world to me! Please inbox or let me know, all love!

Will you get the fckin shit goin to Bali Indonesia?? 🥹🥹🥹 @Syn Gates

I've been playing guitar since last week, and the strat I have is pretty ok and all but my goal is to be one of those cool prog guys playing really weird and heavy shit on an alien looking extended range guitar. At what stage would it make most sense to actually start playing on a 7 string?

I just learned the second position minor pentatonic shape and I realized I might end up having to re-learn a lot of stuff like that. Conversely if I get it now I won't have the slightest idea what to do with all the extra string.

Is there a best way to get to where I want to be?

In this lesson we show you how to find the “relative minor” of a major key and how to use the Pentatonic scale in minor.

An Introduction to Sweep Picking.

Just wanted to say hi I am the new guy here.
I have some beginners chops but want to get better.
Glad to have found this place and good playing to all on here.

Greetings from Italy! I just started playing guitar, and I somehow found this website while looking for the brand of Syn's guitar... Well, I feel like I found gold! I cannot wait to go through all the lessons and get to know this community, you all seem very nice. Ciao!

Hey! I’m new to this site and I’m super excited to be here! I’ve been playing for 10+ years but could never get a grasp on sweeps and melodic shredding. Syn is one of my favorite guitarists and I’m honored to get to learn from the best!

Hello everyone,

new guy here never played before but determined to learn. Glad to be part of the community

My tabs aren't syncing to the videos right. they do play but just first measure of the tab, which i could just scroll myself right? well the tabs is playing so it throws me back to the top of tab.

Is anyone else having tab issues? I've tried both Firefox and Chrome to no avail. Am I missing something?

In this lesson we introduce you to the CAGED system.

Login to view embedded media Hey, I'm a beginner and this is my first question here so I'm a little bit excited.
I'm trying to figure out what is the fingering of the 3rd chord that synyster plays in the finger picking part in the video in the link above (I think it's some form of am), does anyone know?
Thank you so much for the help
