    Hello everyone, Its been a while since I have seen everyone. I hope everyone is doing well. I have recently tried to get back into the guitar (again) and ready to try something new. My goal is to #1 try to sweep pick and really get to become one with the fretboard. I have some experience but...

    Thanks guys, I read the challenge and honestly it sounds silly tbh. I’m just slowing going back, but @jak, your right it’s the Jack of all trades not master. I did find some things to try tho, any thank you all for your help it means a lot to me :).

    Help me

    Thanks guys 🙂 It feels good to be back, but you all stayed in my mind. I have an idea to improve (this also involves Firsty Lasty and Calvin’s comments, also a challenge (I know Jak LOOOOVVEES her challenges)). I am also a HUGE gamer (I will admit this does distract me alot) the reason why I...

    Help me

    Hi everyone, I know I have been MIA for quite sometime. In my defense I am in an accelerated pharmacy school program and I have very little free time. In any case, this is not an excuse. On to the title. I need some help, I have been playing guitar in clips here and there, but no scheduled...

Has anyone felt ya know burnt out on guitar like you know there is a ton to learn and do but you REALLY don’t feel like doing anything.

    I did it :)

    Its official. I played 2 songs for people on guitar and actually didnt break tempo. However I made some mistakes and I can hear them which makes me upset, but I actually played the guitar for someone and I didn’t go back to old habits of stopping mid song. I feel proud but not happy with my...

    Hi everyone, after my last post about leaving for a bit, Im popping back in to share something with you all. In addition to reading some suggestions (really helpful) I am to perform my first public appearance as a guitarist. Nothing big, but I promised my boss I would play her the Game of...

    With a heavy heart

    Hi guys. It is with a heavy heart that I must announce this but I know that this community will hopefully understand. I am unfortunately stepping down from guitar for a while. My reasoning is that this is the crunch time in school and I am about to graduate so I need to finish big projects and...

    A Different Collaboration: Testimonial Video!

    Excellent idea 🙂 Ill definitely give my improv a try. May be a bit rusty since I had to force guitar down for a bit but Ill definitely give it a shot.

    About all the collab ideas

    I like the idea of using Jaks challenges. For Bandhub try using your phone or something or check system preferences cuz I went on it on my laptop and it was fine. If it still doesn’t work then screw it. I didnt make the backing track Richard did so if you want custom tracks talk to him :). Been...

    Is this a Good Idea?

    I like it. It will push you to be better. That being said, I agree with Ids on that if your confidence is low then get a low grade it can throw you off. So Im on the fence tbh.

    Rocksmith?

    @Noah I accept that. The originals are fine but trying to adjust them is honestly a HUGE waste of time.

    Let's Pump Up The Jams!

    @josh Lightner I am the EXACT same way. I feel like if I do a video Ill be disrespecting others by my crappy playing diluting the high quality of others. But when I put up my first video I saw that everyone was supportive and praised my ideas and gave me ideas to spice it up. We are here to help...

    Let's Pump Up The Jams!

    Beautiful Jak. I feel the same way in the community riffs that everyone rushes to A7X which is great but ultimately theres so much more out there and Syn is just one person. I noticed that when I was doing a Solo for Slayer that I saw, Hey thats 3 notes per string or thats just CAGED G pattern...
