    JEEN-YUHS A Kanye Trilogy

    Never a day have I missed out on mentioning you as one of my sources of inspiration, not just as a 4-stri... i mean, 6-stringer, but also as a human. You are the cleanest guitarist from the cleanest band I've known since the early days and I've always been proud to share with my peers, juniors...

    Guitar Synyster custom s issue

    If you don't wish to switch out the switch yet(pun intended), you can try spraying in some contact spray into the gaps. It may work and last a while. I've also owned, and still do, a wide range of Syn models as well, thankfully mine lasted a good 4 to 5 years before the electronics required...

    Comment by 'Muz Malek' in media '"He'll Win" by Muz Malek'

    Yes, definitely! I'm proud to say this song was primary influenced by it! When I first laid down the tracks, I did use the drum track from SoF to get the inspiration for the rest of the song :) It took me quite a while to experiment the right parts by adding and removing parts be it the...

    Fixing an acoustic guitar neck

    If it's a low-end beginner kind, I wouldn't wanna do much to it that would cost more than its cost price haha. If the neck is too warped, better to get a new guitar than fix it. The most i did to mine was to sand down the nut and saddle but i ensured that the neck is relatively not too warped...

    Fixing an acoustic guitar neck

    Sys, it's a classical guitar hahah. Classical guitars(nylon strings) are widely known not to have truss rods in order to keep the overall weight light & also, nylon strings don't demand much tension as opposed to steel strings on acoustics & electrics. There are some companies that do put...

    Synyster gates custom S gold/black stripes

    This topic was brought up before haha, and I've shared before, but firstly, for the gold stripes, out of all the stripe colors, the black body gold stripes one, for whatever reason, is the only one that fades off after a few years. I'm not sure under what conditions will the fading be faster...

    Strange sound when playing 2 notes

    Ahh , the double stop bend technique, I believe, is what you're referring to. Intonation adjustment needed on either the neck or saddle or both. If it's a floating trem, may need to make those amendments, and in addition, maybe adding a spring, etc., so that the tension says a bit better when...

    What's a simple way to remember the caged scale and chord combinations?

    Application too. Learn as many existing songs/riffs/arpeggios & try to spot the patterns used. Not all of'em of course are purposely written based of a system or mode. Some are intended, some are coincidental. A commonly used one is Sweet Child O Mine intro. Which shape of CAGED is used in that...

    Transcription ear training? Easy transcription songs?

    1. Listen and slow down songs 2. Get a second pair of (trusted) ears to hear you out and let them tell you if you are accurate or not I started depending, at least 85% of the time, by ear when I heard and watched countless of people playing that one note in Seize the Day solo inaccurately. I...

    3 note per string patterns

    If it hurts, take a break. Rest is also part of practice! Try, if possible, also to take a photo or video of you playing it so that we can provide input to help improve your technique :) We will be more than happy to guide you! Cheers!

    Left hander playing right handed

    I'm a lefty but playing the guitar right-handed too. I don't really find any strengths nor weaknesses tho. Because when it comes to techniques and strumming and all, it's all just like a basic, muscle memory build-up. I'm guessing those that play lefty being a lefty have different coordination...

    How do you make practice enjoyable?

    This video literally came probably a little less than 24 hours ago & seems to be relatable to your concern - check it out!

    How do i go about this issue?

    It's not really a problem, nor is it wrong to do so. Once in a while, it's fine to 'take a breather' from a song and move on to another. It's like clearing your palate eating the same food everyday. Gotta have something different once in a while :) Cheers!

    Question for people who completed all lessons on synner...

    Totally agree to this :) After playing for 10 years without any understanding of how chords & scales coexist despite having the ability to hear & play them, I've always yearned to understand what goes behind & thanks to Synner, my appreciation towards all that I've been playing grew so much...
