Sweep Exercise

Came up with this exercise based on an A minor pentatonic arpeggio starting on the twelth fret. Then I shifted it down the neck and go up chromaticly. I know my faster sweeps are a bit sloppy, which is why I played it slower at the end. Gotta start using a metronome and work on cleaning up my up sweeps.

I finally got time to do this one which also means I get to do two in one weekend. I also had two beers before filming this so I may go a little bit more into details than I usually do Timestamps: 0:00 demonstration 0:55 intro/chorus 5:45 cadence/key change lesson 8:00 verse 10:30 pre chorus/sub-dominant chord lesson 14:44 outro
This is my cover of Binge and Grab from Buckethead's album, Giant Robot. It's also my first attempt at a meaningful Youtube thumbnail. I'm pretty stoked about it.
Learned these songs 2 days ago. Well, I played them years ago so I just relearned them very quickly. All SynGates rules were observed. #StandUp #OneTake #NoEdit But I'm planning to do a cinematic version at the weekend (Better EQ, Sitting Down, more camera angles,...) This will be fun! Also I gotta work on some parts... They're not as clean as I want them to be

Syn quote that perfectly describes this cover: "She's a sloppy bitch" My all-time favorite Avenged song. I came in on a D5 when it should have been a G5, otherwise I'm pretty happy with this take.
Here's one week of progress on learning the Bat Country solo. She's a sloppy bitch, but I'm still working on it. Haven't learned the end bit of the solo, and the duel solo I have up to 75% speed currently.

Okay, bear with me. After the little talk I had with @[1427:@Ed Seith] and @[63867:@Ojas Sapkota] in the forum I was curious how long I need to warm up these days to get Creep and Master up to speed. I did warm up about 30-40 minutes for this BUT I realized (as I barely played to backing tracks before) that I've been playing Creep way too fast. Now I got issues with the timing when playing to a track, that's why I mess up the downpicking with Creep quite a bit. I think I tried to play Master too fast too (but failed) so when putting on the backing track to Master it was quite easy to play it up to speed. I don't know the whole songs so I can't tell you how it feels like to play this speed for 5 min + so this might be the next thing to experiment on.
I took some advice from @[49467:@Ben newton] and worked on these things: 1) keeping my picking motion smaller 2) working on crossover picking before applying it to the alt. picking exercises 3) working on not rushing the metronome 4) using a clean tone while practicing If I still need work on any of these things (or you see any other problems) please let me know! Thanks for watching, and helping.
New single, "Carol Thrashkin" is droppin. No better time to sell out than before you even make it!
Just one of my favorite guitar players...
Hey everyone! I just finished another guitar cover. This time I played a Metallica classic: For Whom The Bell Tolls. I recorded the bass part but there is no video footage of it since I do not have it with me at the moment u.u Any feedback is appreciated! P.S. All hail the kitten in the corner!
Plini - Every Piece Matters
If you dont know this guitarist, i recomend you to check him out. i love his sound
And all things will end progress
Finally got to play my guitar after not having strings anyway this is my progress with and all things will end so far
Trying out a lot of new stuff. I use a smaller pick, have a new rhythm tone and it's the first time I kinda managed to play it standing up, which is insane to me. There are a couple of parts I really messed up, a) because of timing or b) because it's still awkward to play. But it's so fun to practice this one to the track.
Nightmare riff and chorus
Love playing to this song and I'm enjoying the tone. Need to work on that sustainiac pickup!
