Riffs

rough stab at one of my favorite songs, with a little extra tacked on
Aaand third video for today lol. Listening to @[22747:@Chris Johnston] advice and focusing on a fluid sweep motion. It's not like I picked the notes before, but my pick got stuck between the strings so it seemed more picked than sweeped. So working on that. Still not perfect but it's just a lot to pay attention to at the time. I'll keep working on it.
Just having a bit of a fun jam warming up. It might be pretty boring to watch but I thought I'd share it anyway.

What are your favorite A7X solos? Here are mine (got really sloppy towards the end)

Set me free-Analysis

It's a 4-chord song and it's awesome!

Set me Free

Yes that bend in the intro is a bit sharp. Possibly there are more, tell me when you find them, I'd like to know 😅
As I mentioned since I started to pay more attention to my sweeping technique I had to decrease the tempo a lot to focus on hand synchronisation. And as @[223:@Millie Imber] and @[5735:@Cedric L] suggested I therefore learned the intro sweeps from Not Ready To Die by A7x. My main focus here was hand relaxation, a more loose grip and tilting the pick.
I really should be sleeping, but just watched lesson 68 and had to give it a go. Is this a good starting point ? The pinky stretch though bout killed me 😫 BUT, I remember once upon a time, not too ago, I couldn’t use my pinky at all so I’ll take it lol

Sweep Excercise

Hey Guys! This a sweeping exercise I've just started working on recently from a guitar youtuber's udemy course. At first it was kinda tricky to play along to a metronome because of how many notes I'm supposed to play in 3/4 but I'm starting to get it down. Let me know what you think!

I havent been active on this page since forever. However, recently I really got back intro learning new stuff and I started to take the advanced lessons on this site. My sweep picking and economy picking has improved through this

Progress For Northtale "Bring Down The Mountain"

This is my progress so far with the new NorthTale song :) I present it to Bill on Saturday and I decided to do it on my own to see if I could learn some things by ear with with what all he has taught me. I know the key signature, the chords and the scales being used (thanks Andrei!) . As always feedback is much appreciated! I also chose this song because there is a lot of arpeggio work, down strokes and bends throughout and those are all the things he wants me to work on.

Almost easy - Analysis

Here's the analysis for Almost Easy

Short Improv

Cleaning up a couple of licks I’ve had in my library this year.

Apologies if I sound really tired at the start XD So, the audio isn't the greatest because at parts my phone is louder than my guitar, and you can't see my hand for the last part of the intro, but here's improvement! While warming up today, I got really frustrated because I started picking up on and realising all my bad habits and how bad they really sound (Letting notes ring, poor muting, picking wrong, wrong notes, poor timing etc) but getting the ending of the intro right did bring me back up a bit, so there's that. Hoping to try and get this up to speed and try to sort my timing out, it's really kicking my backside!
