Critical Acclaim Both Guitar Solos
Been posting these A7X covers on my instagram lately so might as well share them here to right?
Ik i'm kinda awkward you can skip to 1:59 if you just want the riff & thank you to the people that make these contests happen you rock. I did forget to mention in this though that I practiced those 7 guitar scale positions non stop like a crazy person to the point I can play them fast, slow, eyes close, and any key lol basically just saying to put in the time with these videos guys and practice them till you got it, it's worth it and I promise you'll get better.

I got together with my buddy to do this video. All guitars are me. Vocals are my buddy Sameer. Drum and bass tracks are the originals. Goofy video is just so you have something to look at while you listen. :D Guitar Solo #1 at 1:18 Guitar Solo #2 at 3:05
Soo, I haven't uploaded something in a while, since before the holidays I think. So here is something I learned a couple of weeks ago, the solo to the classic More Than A Feeling by Boston. I feel like my soloing is getting a bit more fluent lately, it is something I'm still working on a lot, getting more fluidity with melodic lines, and get more feel into the bends and long notes. But I think a lot of that just comes with enough time, practice and confidence.
Was supposed to upload a rough draft the other day. I wrote the lyrics in about 5 minutes after some bad times. I forced it out and tried not to use the same words too many times. I was using some other chords at first and wasn't satisfying. I used the riff I started early October and the melody changed. I need to practice changing it a little faster and more accurately. I feel awkward, but it's cool. I think the last part will be my chorus. It's a rough draft, but I'm happy how it's turning out. Some words I might change in the future, maybe you guys got some suggestions for structure or anything really. I kind of want to try and finish this one day. \../, haha Kermit
Still can't believe it. Alexi, besides guys like EVH and Synyster, made me discover so many things about guitar, songwriting and metal. I was a fan since my teens. RIP dude...

Rough attempt at the River Dragon Has Come solo by Nevermore. Always wanted to try a Jeff Loomis solo and I’ve been working on this one on and off for a looong time!
So I decided I wanna do some non metal covers on here cuz I obviously don’t just listen to metal lol so I decided to do one of my favourite Beatles songs! I’m missing one part cuz I can’t seem to find a tab for it but I’m slowly working it out by ear! Enjoy ( also I know the bend in the beginning isn’t too good haha)
Just wanted to show it's ok to upload your practice with the lessons. No matter how slow or fast you play it. Just try! It's ok.
please excuse the sound quality..thanks!
better sound* I thought it sounded pretty cool with the backing song, it was some random music I put on. Got a new sweater too, just came in. thx mummy!
Figured it out on accident.
I listen Children Of Bodom for only few months andI work this song since 10 days only I recorded it december 25th..in one shot and with my phone ...... Guitarist and musician community have lost an incroyable guitarist, composer and musician... So sorry for all mistakes...it's my very very little contribution to Alexi's memory !! So rock' on dude

Paradigm

Any time Paradigm came up in a discussion about avenged I said to myself and in the forum that I would learn how to play it. This was forever ago and I finally did it 😁
Here is the guitar solo from the cover I made of the METALLICA song (BATTERY). This website really help me improve my guitar playing. Here is what I can do now.
Here is the guitar solo from my song (LEGACY). From my 1rst Ep "Repaying Evil With Evil". This website really help me improve my guitar playing. So here is what I can do now.
This is "Alternate Picking Lesson 4" by Elefent Music on Vimeo, the home for high quality videos and the people who love them.

Riff Contest

This is my participation for the new Riff Contest, here I am using the The harmonic minor scale (Lesson 101) I really like the sound and emotions that this scale transmits. for the arpeggio part I am using the lesson 48 (introduction to building chords) to make a chord progression on that scale and then using the lesson 49 (Building more complicated chords) I started adding some 7th chords to change the sound and make it more "Jazz" What I love of the Syn Gates School is that you can progressively learn guitar no matter your level or skills in a very organized way and having the support of the others students that are always helping to overcome the difficulties. My main aspiration as musician is composing my own music, I love Pinkly Smooth and currently I am composing music inspired by them, maybe some day if you want I can share something of that here Hope you enjoy my participation and thank you for listening!
I started working on this in November last year but was struggling with the motivation to actually finish it and put it out. I was just sitting on bunch of unfinished riffs or ideas in my laptop. I was failing to motivate myself to actually plan out different parts of a song, piece them together and make a final thing. Over the last few days, I decided to get rid of that old habit of not finishing anything. In my mind, this school will be a place to push myself everyday to work on ideas and finishing songs as I go. I will upload each one here from now on just so that I can stop myself from going back to my old ways. With that being siad, I am also working on my song writing skills, learning mixing mastering along the way. So if you notice anything (however little it may be), that can be improved, please let me know. and, if you actually read this full thing, you are truly awesome.
I've been working on my technique, I think it's sounding better. Having trouble getting the right harmonic at the end, it has a low volume on that note. I think the tab book might be slightly off or I'm missing some things. It's still a little off, this is my best solo, I got it memorized. I didn't know the sound would be this low, next time I'll adjust the settings. I've been working on this rock jam, I learned the strumming pattern here. Today I practiced it again to share, but it got a little more interesting by accident and was able to work it into my playing. Going to try and upload the jam tomorrow with some kind of song structure.
