1 6 3 b flat as requested. Have another progression for me to play?

I got a new guitar and I figured I could write a song on it. I consider this just a demo but I filmed things because I wanted to show off my new guitar. I also spend like a week or so working/recording this so that's why the outfit changes every once in a while in the video.

Song 6 on the Centzless album. This is by far one of my favourite tunes on this album because of the way it flows everlasting. refer to comments for explanation and pic

Trying to work on standing and playing and not resting my hand so hard on the bridge that it pushes the notes sharp.

It's still a work in progress but i'm happy on where it's at right now there's a part on the solo where the lick is all legato but i decided to take a different approach and tap it.🙏

This is somethimg I do to get more familiar to scales or keys I don´t control well. I improvise with chords and some leads runs, I am not thinking on particuar chords, I just try to fit the chords in the scale pattern to know were it is. What I am thinking about while doing this is the scale position because my objetive with these is to know better where it is. It is also a fun improvisation exsercise and you can get some cool chord progresion ideas from it. The key I´m using in these video is B flat.

I've been working on blues for Ike and here's a little improv over that song.

On behalf of the people of my country (Myanmar), I would like to ask help for support against the military coup that has took placed in Feb 1. I haven't been here learning much since then because the Junta cut off all our internet and cells in order to prevent the world knowing the real situation here. In this song, I created about all the killings and abducting civilians and to encourage my people that no matter how much they kill, they may only kill our life but not our souls that are against them because it's 2021 they they are taking us back to the stone ages. I reached out to Syn a few weeks ago but I think he has not seen my messages. So I beg you Syn, your encouragement to me will mean a lot to me. My dad and I are well known musicians here and we are on their warrant list. We have been running and now I get wifi at a home who are kind enough to let my dad and I to stay for a few days since we have been running.

A double stop riff. Trying to play slow, having a hard time. Practicing inside picking, hammer-on pull-offs, being more gentle, my stance and smiling mostly. Trying to get better control. Haven't decided on the fingerings yet and how to play it. Going to add more notes I think I need like 2 more to complete a scale. Not sure what to do with it yet, probably nothing as usual. After a few minutes I forgot the metronome. I got a new phone and was able to untangle my other guitar strap.

The next year Im going to try to be admitted by a music school and this is some of the reperoir that I need to know to the acces test.

This one is pretty spontaneous so it's a bit of a mess at times. Basically, it teaches the chords for blues for Ike and amuses the Harmony using Roman Numeral analysis. I also put a short tutorial for the head in there. If anyone has any questions I'll happily answer them

Yesterday, @[5:@Jak Angelescu] mentioned that I should look to improve how I use my pinky finger, and so that's what I focused on today! A few notes: 1. The tucking-behind problem seems to be sorted, I think? 2. It still tends to stray from the fretboard a lot, it's hard to keep it close. 3. I think I'm tucking in my elbow too much? Gets really uncomfortable as it progresses 4. I'm feeling some tense-ness/strain in my arm, and I'm not sure how to fix it 5. Is it normal for my pinky finger to try and twist slightly? I tend to catch the string to the side of the tip of my finger (My left) 6. I stayed seated for this because I figured I should get it right first before throwing that into the mix, there's already a lot going on with the thumb, the fingertips and the elbow thing. So after an hour+ of trying, I'm gonna give it a rest and try continue tomorrow after my exams! Any and all tips are welcomed! Cheers!

Back then I'd just memorize the harmonies and mindlessly shred over the shredding bits, but this time I took the time to literally slow the song down & properly pick out the notes. Asides from the technicality, I also developed a deeper appreciation to the chords used in especially the 1st solo. While they were played in power chords, my curious mind led me to try and figure what the full chords could've been(while appreciating @[2:@Syn Gates] 's choice of notes. Here's what I picked out(correct me if i'm wrong): G - Cm - F - Bb - Bb-A(passing)-Ab - G - Cm - A(not sure if it's a 7 but a plain A aurally works) I figured that the chords were not the typical "Dm" chord family(since of course, the main riff is already using the Phrygian bit(again correct me). I asked my teacher(after 10 yrs of playing, i finally got myself a teacher in Aug'20), and he shared the chords in the 1st solo were moving in circle of 4ths.

Its a little bit sloppy but I hope you enjoy it anyway. :)

Practicing for the next part of Master of Puppets where I left off in my last video. Still learning and practicing so there’s some hesitation and wrong notes...

Happy Synner Sunday everyone! I think this is the first time that I'm uploading a literal day 1 riff :D. The first two Skid Row records are very high among my favorite albums of all time, and this song is definitely one of my favorite songs of all time. So I felt it is time that I gave it a shot and start learning it. And I thought, I would couple it with my second run of the #onemonthchallenge. So here is the raw day 1 footage, I haven't learned anything more than the main riff so far (track is on 75 % speed btw). My set goals for the next month are much simpler than last time: Just see how far I'll get with it, and try to upload a progress video for every synner sunday. So yeah, we will see how it goes.

Back on this solo!! I first tried it in november and quickly quit after barely learning the notes of the first part 😅😅(I'll leave the link of that video at the end of the desciption if someone wants to check out where I was at with this) BUT!!! we are not quitters, so I got back to it with the tutorial by @[4668:@Alicia Willis] (check that out!!!). I'm playing without backing track or metronome so it's not on time, but I hope to get that done for next week! As always, feedback and suggestions are welcome and appreciated. Happy Synner Sunday fam🖤 https://syngates.com/media/synner-saturdays-beginning-to-learn-the-warmness-on-the-soul-solo-the-struggle-is-real.4355/

Trying to get back into things - Again! Working on the A Minor Pentatonic Scale, but all across the fretboard today, as shown to me by Bill. A few things to note that I'm trying to work on with this: 1. Keeping my thumb behind the fretboard 2. Using the tips of my fingers, not the pads 3. When going up/forward, not removing fingers from notes until the next string 4. When going down/backwards, having fingers already in place before pulling off. 5. Trying not to tense my arm (Failed, oops) It's a lot to do, and probably too much to try in one go, but given the time I've had off, I wanted to try a fresh-ish start? And I wanted to do it the right way. Not sure how I did though, so I would love to hear any advice! Cheers!

CC Always welcome! For not being motivated for creative endeavors for the last few weeks, I finally picked up the guitar tonight. Didn't do much other than run through Do Re M...

Standard tuning this time. Playing through to the end of the second verse.

I got the double chin action going here! So, one month has passed and I managed to learn the whole intro and get into crazy two finger tapping. I kinda reached my goal to play the whole thing up to speed but you can see still veeeery sloppy. Anyway, that won't discourage me (I hope) so I will still practice this beyond the challenge. Really gotta go back and practice slower, clean up my playing. Some stretches are TOUGH
