    A Legal Question, about Syns shoutout for my YouTube Channel

    I don’t think it’s illegal, but it does sound (sorry if I sound harsh) a little pretentious to me to be using him as an ad for your channel. But go ahead, nobody is stopping you.

    I'm done with lead playing

    Everytime someone asks you to post a video of you playing, You don’t. It will be much easier for people to identify your problem if they can see your technique or how you play. Even if they don’t respond, go to guitar subreddits. Bunch of guitarists willing to help you out.

    The one thing I don't understand about music theory

    My understanding of modes are, just scales starting in a different note of that scale. Fo example: The C Major Scale. The notes are C D E F G A B. This is called the Ionian mode of the C Major Scale. AKA as just the regular C Major scale starting in C. But what if we start that scale on A...

    3/4 to 4/4 smoothly

    How do I switch from 3/4 to 4/4 smoothly without it sounding awkward (Or having a rest in between)?

    I’m an Idiot.

    I’ll take a look into that!

    I’m an Idiot.

    The thing is, the closest music store is really really far away from where I live. I only get my strings from best buy, which is the only place closest to my area that sells strings. They don’t sell it individually. I’ll check out the video though, thanks.

    I’m an Idiot.

    If there’s one thing I’m really really horrible at, its Guitar Maintenance (Specifically Changing Strings) Today I changed my strings, I did the little loop thing that some guy from youtube told me, to keep the strings in tune. When I got to my High E string. I snapped off the slack at the end...

    Picking Problems!

    @syn I’ll take this advice. I’ve been juggling theory, technique (Finger Picking, Alternate, Bends and Vibratos) and school for the past weeks. Maybe for now, I’ll take building speed out of my practice and focus on things I’m not struggling with, then improve. Thanks!

    Picking Problems!

    I’ve been having picking problems for the last couple of weeks. My pick always gets stuck on strings whenever I play. Its getting pretty annoying, I tried everything I could search up. I tilted my pick a certain angle, I made it show only a little bit of the tip. I loosen my fingers, I lose...
