So here I was....watching Netflix....and practicing scales...and Boom! This D mixolydian scale run flew by! I read before that to play fast one hast to be super relaxed...and wow...it seems to work! This is the beginning!

Sweet Georgia Brown improv

Little improv over Sweet Georgia brown. It's not perfect but ooh well
Here is the guitar solo (live take over the actual track) to my latest song, Eris! It probably took me as long to record the solo as it did to get every other part in the song recorded, but I like how it turned out! If you haven't already, check out the song in the link below! https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/adamshea/eris
first time capturing myself playing on video and syncing it to the audio recording via interface/DAW; tried to see how far i could go in one take and...lol

Using my amp now, will likely use Bias FX for the finalized version.
Okay, so I went rummaging though some old recordings, and found two of these song/solo ideas I'd completely forgotten about! So here I am, showing them off for the first time! They're crap attempts, I need to write them down and work on them properly, but here they are. Would love to know what you all think, and whether I should keep developing them and maybe even make something with them! Could be my little improvement project! Cheers
Got my first skype lesson with a teacher and got some homework :)
Hope you like it. Please subscribe so i can reach my 100 subscriber goal. Have a nice day.

Mirror twin

Just a little fun I had with a Cmaj7 and Dmaj7 chord.
This is from a rough practice session. Spent about an hour doing it over and over- this is one of the better takes. At the end I was about to go back, but I felt called to noodle around a bit first. I very obviously hit a few wrong notes, but it is what it is 😎. I'll post other stuff in the coming days and then come back to this song in about a week or so (I'll be working on it every day). I'll be sure to stay in tempo next time, too lol. This is to keep a tangible track of how my playing real songs improves. Thanks for watching.

This is my attempt at one of my favorite A7X solos and one of the hardest thing's I've ever played in my life! It's still a work in progress...enjoy! (I had to improvise some bits as my strat doesn't have enough frets to get everything in the solo haha!)
Wanted to cover this for a while! I use this piece as a warm-up and general practice piece anytime I play because it's great for stretching, sliding, and especially vibrato! I'll post a tab shortly once I write it all down, as I worked it out by ear originally! If there's any questions, let me know and I'll do my best to answer, and if you give this a go, let me know how it works for you! :) Audio - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FY8l5zgCc5E
A day late due to finishing up college stuff, but here's my next part of my CAGED System understanding! A lot of rambling and going back and forth here as I try to make sure I know what I'm doing and talking about, but I think I got there eventually! Now I just gotta expand and experiment with changing positions and switching between pentatonics and arpeggios, you can do that right? If there's anything I've missed or gotten wrong, please let me know! I wanna be able to get the knowledge down so I can start trying things out, learning and doing better! Also, I really need to use Dark Star more often, this guitar's got such a nice sound that I've overlooked forever!
Started with the Blues Lessons but felt I have yet a lot to learn before attempting to write some good Blues and Motifs myself. It's easier with metal cause I listen to that a lot and already know how to play a few metal songs. So I thought to get a better understanding of Motifs I gotta learn some, starting with the intro to John Mayer's Gravity (Live in LA). Figured it out by watching someone play it and using my previously gained knowledge to quickly tap into the G Major Pentatonic scale. This is my result after working on it after two days I believe.

A silly idea

Always wanted to solo on top of Synysters Gates' solo in the spirit of the original track. I highly suggest anyone to try this if their inspiration is out of whack like mine 99% of time.
Posted in the forums awhile ago asking if the arpeggios in the Bat Country solo were sweep picked or alternate picked and a lot of people said it was actually picked so I've been practicing a little everyday and this is what I have so far. The first half is what I can play at a comfortable speed and the second is my attempt at full speed. The second arpeggio is what I need to work on the most for sure.

From having to alternate pick a part, to actually being able to do it correctly with a continuous hammer on/pull (even if it’s not perfect) 😃
Here is a riff I re upload. I changed the tempo and added a bridge and a chorus. Let me know your suggestions.
