Waltz For Ferry

An original waltz tune of mine called Waltz For Ferry.Ferry is a man I met in Augsburg, Germany. I think it was in 2015. He heard me play a guitar in his sho...
Just a progress video, been working on these solos the past few days. Still have some polishing out to do (mainly on the acoustic bridge) but thought I'd post a progress video before I do a cover.
I found a dude on instagram playing this and i had to learn it. The papping part is fucked
Hey there! First time posting a cover on here, hope you like it :) I’m well aware of the mistakes but I’m challenging myself by sharing this video. The solo is a work in progress at the moment, but I’m almost there🤘🏼
Hi, everyone! For those of you who don't know me yet, my name is Anna Luiza, I'm from Brazil and I have 0 experience in the guitar world. This is my first video. I've decided to record and post my first practice of the C major scale. Even though it's very rough, I'm very happy I was able to overcome my fear of exposing myself. As you can see, I'm still getting familiar with the fretboard, the strings, the right way to hold the pick... It's all very new to me. I hope soon I can watch this video again and see how much progress I've made!
So over the past month alternate picking has been, and still is, kind of my white whale. My 'natural state' is still to just downpick everything and it's probably going to take me a while to get that out of my system, so this exercise has kind of been my go-to lately.

Mercy

As Shawn's #1 fan I figured it's about time I'd have some fun with one of his songs so here's my version of mercy. I still don't consider myself a good singer but the only way to get a better is by actually doing it you know. I do try to manage my breathing and tension and stuff like that but still not great at it 😅 I'm also proud to say I'm still in track with my practice schedule after one day 🤪
I found this pretty simple pattern a little while ago. It's really fun to play, and easy to manipulate to get lots of different colors out of it. I've been working on my picking technique a lot, and it feels so much easier to control and to maintain. I'm open to any criticisms regardless of how far I feel like I've come.
Sounds better than it did a few weeks ago believe it or not. Lol. Any tips appreciated. I'll be gradually working the thumb pick in. I tried it today but it frustrated me.

Blues Jam in C

I decided to jam some blues over this gorgeous backing track. Whilst it’s nothing technically advanced, I once again took so many cues from Syn in terms of groove and evoking emotion. This man continues to inspire me across so many genres, not just in metal.

I think 'Shepherd of Fire' is gonna be my first full song, guys... I know I stumbled a couple of times, but this song is fun AF. Also good pinky practice! Follow-up: my pinky hurts hahahah. CC welcome, as always. :)
Practicing the Em and G chords...first time playing along with PG successfully-ish. Realize now I've got the fingering wrong for the Em, but am still going to put this out there. I am always open to CC and hope I'm getting some good tone. All advice welcome as I embark on playing chords =)!

Regret #9 solo

This solo hs been one of my favourites ever since I've first heard it so I figured I'd do an attempt at learning it

XIV Practice

This is a practice video on XIV by Born of Osiris Im at 70 BPM right now and thought I should start sharing my progress more often

Chapter four

Hi guys🖤 today I tried to do more! I worked hard, although I could have done better. I’m not having a good time and I’m finding comfort in the guitar. Thank you @[77197:@Maxus] for your help! ✨🤘
Haven't been around lately, I'm sorry...but I'm back now. I thought it was a good idea to track my progress on this solo. I'm taking it as a long term project because it's soooo fast that is hard for me to follow, and I need to work on my technique separately, otherwise I get stuck like at 80% and can't speed up. I started some months ago and I come and go, practice for a period, then kind of quit, then go back to it and so and so. Started at a very slow speed and have been speeding up little by little during these months in the hope that I would eventually be able to reach 100%. Here you can see my suffering trying to follow 100%. I know some parts need putting the metronome down and cleaning up. That's why I wanted to share with y'all and I'll be posting here my progress
Rough demo of my new original I am working on. One guitar only, no Metronome. Only played the "main" riffs. Finished song is to have two guitars with more backup riffs. Proud on this one cause it was the first take and a one take! I think this gives a pretty good idea where the song is going. It's all finished in my head but until I recorded everything for good it will be another while. Still not quite there yet. Wasn't sure if I should keep the parts you haven't heard yet secret and surprise y'all when it's done but I figured I'd share.
Cymatics is doing a bet contest and I figured I'll see what I can come up with and just enter for fun. I figured I'd share it here as well

I don't consider myself a good singer but I do like to sing so hopefully you guys enjoy.
