    what made you guys join this school?

    You know Is it only me that like the simpler, chords/solo progression?

    I also like the guitar work in City of Evil. It doesn’t have to be super complex to sound good. Having simplicity in songs don’t take away it’s true musical potential.

    "Slow down software" [Question]

    Riff Master Pro is another good one. I use it a lot. It is free and you can slow the song and still keep the pitch the same

    Let's Pump Up The Jams!

    I tend to do the same thing. I will take different licks and techniques from songs that I have learned and incorporate them into my own guitar playing. With the skills that I am learning from being apart of this school I have seen improvement in my playing.

    Playing with people helps because you can get instant feedback on what works and doesn’t work. Calaborating with other musicians in person can really help with your playing and confidence. When I Jan with other people, I tend to enjoy playing a bit better than when I Jan by myself. It makes a...
