    We want to hear from you!

    I've said this before and it's been mentioned already, but I think the school needs more engagement from Syn and PG. They both live busy lives which makes it hard, and I think a lot of the point of this school was to teach eachother and have community leaders oversee it, but it would feel a lot...

    Comment by 'Awex Came' in media 'spanish romance'

    I love playing this song. It was actually the Final test in my Intro to Classical Guitar class at Musicians Insitute. I still play it all the time. That 3rd chord change always kills me

    How to add guitar to a song that has no guitar parts

    There's usually a bass line of some sort, thats a starting point. Start by copying what the bass is doing, but do power chords or something. From there you could even write a notey riff based on the power chords. Then if there are other instruments in the song doing melodic lines, you can copy...

    Stagefright/Anxiety/Imposter Syndrome

    I had a bandmate once who would worry himself into physical sickness over playing live, even had to cancel a show on the day of, after driving a few hours for it. You don’t want to be that guy for your sake or your bandmate’s sake. I spent some time with with a bigger post hardcore/rock band...

    Please suggest pedal setup

    I know you picked these pedals because Syn used these live in the past. He has a pedal coming out soon, so you might want to consider holding off for that. It would also help us recommend which pedals to get depending on what type of amp/rig you’re using. The tube screamer, SD-1, ZW44, and...

    What are you currently listening to?

    New Asking Alexandria kinda sounds like Avenged/Metallica instrumentally, as some have pointed out in the comments

    Six Magic Notes Contest

    I'm pretty sure we're just supposed to use the 6 notes of the A minor pentatonic scale. But it doesn't exactly clarify. All I saw was: "The principle is simple: use the lesson to create a solo of your own with the backing track given." which doesn't specifically imply that you should only use A...

    Six Magic Notes Contest

    To be clear, are we not allowed to use notes from the A minor scale or chromatic notes?

    Any Ministry fans? (Free guitar pick)

    Is anyone on here a big fan of the band Ministry? I have no clue how or when I got it, but I found that I have a guitar pick from Sin Quirin from Ministry that was used when he was playing with his supergroup side band The Great Americon. Anybody want it? I'd prefer not to ship out of the US...

    Schecter Hellwin

    An Uberschall would get you a Syn-ish tone for the most part as he's used one to some degree for most of his career, but an amp that is more like the Hellwin and costs less than the Uberschall would be the Marshall JVM amps, such as the JVM205H. It's been confirmed by James Brown, who designed...

    Schecter Hellwin

    In all seriousness though, you really can’t find them. Every once in a while there’s one listed for sale but they’re usually thousands of dollars since they can set the market price

    One does not find a Hellwin. The Hellwin finds you.

    I think those last 3 are definite, no "maybe" there. Turns out he's been finger picking this whole time

    Guitar picks

    I received a pick from his family last year and a few he had in the studio a few weeks ago, all had artwork correlating to The Stage and all were 2mm picks. I also have picks from Syn and Zacky from a HTTK era tour that are 2mm. Not to say that he doesn't use and have custom .73mm's, but that's...

    Electrical/Wiring help if anyone needs

    Wire strippers would help, but I use razor blades or my teeth when I’m in a pinch. Cutting off a few strands won’t really effect anything. but maybe you cut more than you realized. You could always completely chop off that end and try again. Also try resoldering the ends, maybe you got a cold...

    Sidewinder outro

    PG does the first solo, and he's playing an acoustic with nylon strings. Syn's is second and he's using a steel stringed acoustic. Then they do the trade off/harmonization where PG is on the left and Syn is on the right
