Expanding the possibilities of fusing guitar virtuoso with K-Pop! Pop on your earpiece/headphones to hear some cool guitar layering! Strung my black guitar with pink strings just for this! Enjoy! IG: @muzmalek
What's going on Synners!? Happy Synner Sundays! Such a cool solo! Had to slow this down a bit, as I haven't been practicing it long. It needs some more time, but on a day like today I couldn't possibly NOT show y'all what I've been up to. I haven't been very active because of work, and it has been a rough few weeks. To add onto it all, the Instagram page went down. I believe that we can make it through these times together though, because this school has pulled me up many times, and there is no doubt in my mind that tough times will fly by with enough shredding from all of us. Hope everyone is doing great, and I can't wait to see what new things the school has planned for us!
I’m back!!! So I decided I wanted to take part in synner Sundays since I noticed and read on the Instagram page that barely anyone has taken part and honestly that’s kinda sad... So I don’t have my guitar with me since I’m out at my grandmothers for a few days so I’m gonna upload a video I haven’t shown here from a month ago! I wanted to show that I don’t just play metal and show I can do other styles! So I chose a song from the Beatles who are one of my fav bands that aren’t metal lol Enjoy! Love y’all

Exist

I've said I would do a vocal cover of exist and I kinda tried. I'm not shadz and I'm pretty exhausted so I do struggle holding pitch a bunch of times but tried to work myself through it. I think this also could count as #synnersundays but you now the singing isn't really that great 😅
Welcome to the family #synnersundays
Decided to do welcome to the family in drop c# because my guitar wasnt in drop d so i tried to follow along with the live version of the song
Sat down tonight with the Em and G lesson and really drilled it. But this time I focused on how my fingers were (besides sore, lol!) on the fret board. I know I have a long way to go but I feel like I made a small amount of progress tonight on not muting strings. CC always welcome and appreciated!

Ugh, Chords

Still learning how to get my fingers to bend in such a way as not to mute strings. I think on this video I get closer? All CC always appreciated and welcome!

Just got this guitar.
I’m learning to get solos by ear and analyze them to apply the theory. It’s hard...but it’s really fun!!🤩 This is my 3rd one. Still in the works and I think I’ve got some wrong notes, but it’s beginning to sound pretty decent I guess 😊
Just released my new GHOST cover :)

My First Riff Video!

Stepping out of my comfort zone to record a riff. Enjoy!

mix is kind of low. I apologize for that. I suggest going to 51:30 of my twitch stream to get a better listen to this. The rhythm is a couple dbs too high.

My hands hurt after practicing this for two hours😂 but revisiting the old lessons today made me realize how much I'm lacking in the basics all over again.
My 1st video post here :) thanks @[477:@Ids Schiere] for the challenge and @[5:@Jak Angelescu] for bringing back the game. And @[4668:@Alicia Willis] for helping me post it 😅🦇🤟🏻
Posted a vid of me practicing this at a slower speed a while ago... and here is the updated progress!
Had a little fun writing a solo for this classic, its chord progression is amazing. :) I tried to sound as "synth-like" and smooth as possible, so I obviously threw in long and liquidy legato lines ^^

Dm improv

I had this Dm-Am-G-Bb chord progression laying around for a while but never used it because it was too much of a similar vibe to that other song I wrote so I figured I'd improv over it. I use some D aeolian, D Dorian and D minor pentatonic.
It's time I put a little update on my work in progress with this song... The second solo is brutal, will take a lot more time until I can play it with the backing track. Also, I learned 90% of it by ear, so there are some parts where it is not completely exact yet, haha. Turns out, my auditorial memory is worse than my visual memory, so memorizing the tabs in combination with the sound is much easier than just memorizing the sound. The high bends are still a little... yucki overall, and I feel my sustain dies in that area of the neck pretty quickly, so my pretty gainy and noisy amp channel counteracts a bit against that (but honestly, I should just try to improve the guitar setup). Alright, enough excuses, here is the brutal and honest state of progress.^^

I really was not sure if I should post this because the bends are out of tune and I completly missed one (also, the guitar is a little out of tune itself, because at that point I had been playing for a long time and couldn't be bothered to tune again, ops😂😂😂), and still have to find the right tone on the new amp, but I figured that this are struggles that all beginners go through so there's no point in "hiding" those things. Positive note: got the whole solo memorized and tried to play at 100% speed. Now I'll slow down the bpms and will work on the bendings and vibrato 🤗
