I was nominated by a friend Adam Lutz. Hoping to see my buddy Nick Ulmer post, who also was a former band member with me. I nominated some fellow Synyster Gates Master Class winners, check them out! Adam Dominguez, @jamespaullagraff, and @swain033. Krys Escobar was another, but he already had one done.
As a follow up to my asking for advice on string noise, I made an exercise to help with string muting using basic sweep picking. I can kill 2 birds with 1 st...
Quarantine Jamz Nr.4! This Charming man
$ynners...I finally did it. 100% speed. Im so happy this is one of my all time favourite songs. I love the unending arpeggios. Johnny Marr is one of the Greatests!

Smells like teen spirit - Nirvana
10pm and I cant put the guitar down even if Im not even focused on practicing or whatever xD My neighbours must hate me at the moment as Im playing a bit loud xD Just a quick video anyway!
After taking a break yesterday, I came back and improved! I'm a lot more confident with playing this now, just one slight slip-up nearing the end which you'll definitely hear but I think I recovered well. I'm playing along to the official soundtrack, and the timing at the start is pretty hard to nail down, but I got really close! Finger positions are a lot better too, just gotta work on slides and making those notes sound smoother. It's not so easy standing up, but worth it! Got a better tone on the amp too, it's not much but it's better! Hope you like it! \m/
@[477:@Ids Schiere] challenged me to play this means war, so here’s me having fun with the whole rhythm part of the song!

@[5:@Jak Angelescu] said we should play standing up, so here I go!!! This is my first try 😄 Come on beginners, LET’S STAND UP AND PLAY!! 🤣
Inspired by the Video Games Music thread! So, spent a fair while today learning the first half of this theme, worked out by ear. I'd originally been playing it from memory and as such got a few things wrong. Went back, listened to it, and re-worked it out. There's still a few points where I tried reverting back to the original way I played it, there's a time where I hit an open string, and a few instances of using the wrong finger to play. I've been really trying to drill into my head finger positioning, and using my pinky more, which is song is great for, as well as stretching. It's not perfect, but I plan to come back to it and make it better! Also, standing up is HARD!! Another thing I struggled with is the tone. Original is a lot crisper and cleaner. I couldn't replicate this as well as I wanted on my amp, I used a twang setting with a LOT of reverb, treble and mid, a fair amount of drive, and I think some Tape Echo. It's close, but not 100%. Hope you like it! \m/
Quarantine Jamz Nr.3  Dance Macabre by Ghost.
Quarantine Jamz Nr.3 Dance Macabre by Ghost. By far....my least liked song of theirs.......but the solo rippss!
In order to expand my musical knowledge I learned all positions of the (C) major scale so I can use the CAGED system and lessons more efficiently. Also training to play standing up, which is quite hard if you haven't done it a lot. Still struggeling playing ANYTHING with my pinky below the twelve.
Inspired by the lesson on the twelve bar blues and a healthy amount of nostalgia, I wrote this piece a while back and finally got a demo version out. Hope y'all enjoy!
Recorded over the original track using Audacity. My daughter as special guest xD @[5:@Jak Angelescu] playing standing up and full song :P Ignore my video edit skills xD
Avenged Sevenfold - Buried Alive cover by Alon all guitar parts! Hi :) This is the first official cover that i really worked on with my good friend producer ...
Done for a college assignment. Attempt at the SGS Economy Picking Etude 1 after around a week of practice. Had to focus the camera on my picking hand so apologies that you can't see my fretting hand that much. I keep having problems where I don't let the strings ring out long enough, but here I think I managed to get it somewhat right. A little annoyed that I completely botched the bend right at the end, but this was my best recorded attempt to date. Planning to try move onto the next step of the Etude with the 6 notes, can do it around 70% speed but any faster and I lose it. As for my picking, I feel like it's not smooth enough at this speed, still feels like I'm plucking more despite trying to angle the pick a little. Is it just because it's slow and that once I get faster, it'll be a lot smoother? Also, is it bad I rest the guitar on my left leg to reach notes comfortably? Tips + comments appreciated! (Also a side note to everyone who offered me advice yesterday - Thank you!!)

@[3987:@Dominik Graeber] challenged me to learn this. Note: the intro is in free time so it's kind of annoying to get the timing entirely right, in the second solo he uses a EHX microsynth so I kinda improvised a little bit there. I couldn't figure out what was going on with the octaves at the end so I kinda just did something(which is wrong at times)
I was challenged by Dominik Graeber to attempt this awesome riff !
Sixteenth Quarantine Day: I'm starting to go crazy and write covers xD
Due to @[5:@Jak Angelescu] recent video, i bit the bullet and uploaded my full cover of this song! Made a couple mistakes, but i just had fun with it. Enjoy and tell me what you guys think!
Hey guys this is my Metalcore cover of Dance Monkey! Enjoy!
