Tutorial for the first solo of set me free

Set me free-Analysis

It's a 4-chord song and it's awesome!

Set me Free

Yes that bend in the intro is a bit sharp. Possibly there are more, tell me when you find them, I'd like to know 😅
As I mentioned since I started to pay more attention to my sweeping technique I had to decrease the tempo a lot to focus on hand synchronisation. And as @[223:@Millie Imber] and @[5735:@Cedric L] suggested I therefore learned the intro sweeps from Not Ready To Die by A7x. My main focus here was hand relaxation, a more loose grip and tilting the pick.

I really should be sleeping, but just watched lesson 68 and had to give it a go. Is this a good starting point ? The pinky stretch though bout killed me 😫 BUT, I remember once upon a time, not too ago, I couldn’t use my pinky at all so I’ll take it lol

Sweep Excercise

Hey Guys! This a sweeping exercise I've just started working on recently from a guitar youtuber's udemy course. At first it was kinda tricky to play along to a metronome because of how many notes I'm supposed to play in 3/4 but I'm starting to get it down. Let me know what you think!

Syn Collab v3

I took some advice from Ailee, Filip, and Ids to create the third iteration of my solo. After the pinch harmonic in the first section I decided to change from a whole step of the first note to a half step in my pentatonic ascent up the fretboard so that the notes would feel a little more cohesive while retaining that "creepy" kind of vibe to the lick. My second change was adding a little palm muted triplet at :07 to fill it out a bit. Next I decided to change to legato for the first part of the fast section at :20 for 2 reasons. The first is that I felt the solo had a little too much pick attack to it, so this was a good way to even it out. The second is that my timing was off from the track in my last take, and moving to legato allowed me to better time the section as well as prepare for the taps. Finally, I cut off the excess at the end of my last clip (so that I was playing the right chorus) :I. Comments and critiques are extremely appreciated! Thanks again to Ailee and Filip!

with a bit more practice, i probably could have managed the lead in a single take but i was eager to move on and, really, just happy i figured out how to get...
Improvising over a Pink Floyd Backing Track in D Minor
I havent been active on this page since forever. However, recently I really got back intro learning new stuff and I started to take the advanced lessons on this site. My sweep picking and economy picking has improved through this
So I wrote a little more to my song I dubbed "New Age" for now and I wanted to have it in a dual guitar context. Currently I have 2 Verses and Choruses and a Bridge that leads to a solo but I did not write the solo yet. Sorry that it's all a little off timing and sync wise but I am excited to share my progress on this with you guys!
Revision of my initial solo for the Syn Gates student collab. Just made a move across my state and between that and the job I haven't really been able to do anything I enjoy, so BIG thanks to Filip for the deadline extension! As always let me know what you think! Ps: (IK I muted my first tap in the beginning of the section, will have that cleaned up for the final recording).

Progress For Northtale "Bring Down The Mountain"

This is my progress so far with the new NorthTale song :) I present it to Bill on Saturday and I decided to do it on my own to see if I could learn some things by ear with with what all he has taught me. I know the key signature, the chords and the scales being used (thanks Andrei!) . As always feedback is much appreciated! I also chose this song because there is a lot of arpeggio work, down strokes and bends throughout and those are all the things he wants me to work on.
I can honestly say this is the most confident I’ve been playing. It’s not perfect, but I’m damn proud of it 😊 Hammer on’s/pull off’s and slides are definitely getting better I think.
