    Made my own solo, Is it original?

    I love it. It doesn't remind me of anything that I can think of.

    What are you currently listening to?

    Racer X, the first track of the first album. A lot of what you're hearing is a Squire strat with stock pickups. It's the archer, not the arrow. Expensive guitars are enjoyable, but probably not what you need. Tbh I wish I had less money in guitars. Not music. Frank Cullotta, his last interview...

    What are you currently listening to?

    Reminds me of Buckethead, but I can't remember which song. So here's some random Buckethead. Nottingham Lace. It really gets going two minutes in, everything before that is to prepare your ears and set the mood.

    Kenny Loggins. Amazing vocal performance.

    What are you currently listening to?

    Got it stuck in my head because Skippy kinda sings it (an intelligent gun in cyberpunk). I've already got past 100 hours in the game because it released right before my vacation started.

    Tabs are wrong. Unfortunately tabs on the internet are almost always wrong.

    How do i know when scale has a sharp note, for instance in the A scale, or the B scale

    There are two ways to know the sharps and flats in a scale. The first way is to know the pattern of the scale on the fretboard and just look at what the notes are in that position. The second way is to memorize what flats and sharps are in each key. For most traditional instruments this is the...

    I'm sure every one of you has heard part of this, but imo the entire thing is good.

    Comment by 'Firsty Lasty' in media 'Synner Saturdays, beginning to learn the "warmness on the soul" solo *the struggle is real*'

    The motion of bending/vibrato is kind of like turning a door knob. A lot of times it helps to really get your thumb over the top of the neck.

    A 6-pack to lower your inhibitions!

    Something I love doing is picking notes anywhere on the fretboard and trying to make a chord out of it by ear. Sometimes I stumble across pieces of songs I recognize, sometimes I rediscover chords I already know, and sometimes I find things that sound good but I don't know wtf is going on...

    I tried listening to the Beatles again, felt like I was dying of boredom. Not worth it. The Who and Goldfinger,

    Metal with a symphony!

    Comment by 'Firsty Lasty' in media 'Been doing this fingers exercise with the metronome for like an hour. Fml 🙃'

    Ok, time to stop putting this off. I tried filming a video demonstrating a couple of things earlier today but I couldn't find a good setup where I could play comfortably and you could see what my fingers were doing. I think I would have to tape my phone to a clothes rack or something like that...

    I've washed my hands in hot water before for around thirty or so seconds to loosen up my finger joints during the morning and it's worked before

    One shoulder being lower than the other, is it also more "forwards" than the other? If a shoulder is constantly rolled forwards it's probably at massive risk of developing injury/chronic pain.

    LEAVING FEEDBACK ON RIFF VIDEOS

    I've never left feedback 'cuz I almost never look at the media section. Maybe I should start watching. I do feel a little guilty because there is someone who asked for tips with an exercise recently and I do have a specific suggestion but it would be hard to explain with text and I don't feel...

    I've washed my hands in hot water before for around thirty or so seconds to loosen up my finger joints during the morning and it's worked before

    There are a lot of people out there who wreck their hands working shitty jobs and end up having to use hot water to get their hands moving in the morning. Especially in meat packing plants- anyone who uses a straight knife, whizard knife, or hook is at big risk. I'll keep recommending what I...

    Some chill tonight. Joe Gore, "An improvised arrangement of a favorite old Richard Thompson song"

    What are you currently listening to?

    Tonight it's Children of Bodom. Three tracks from the same album. I had heard of this band but didn't have any way to buy their music at the time so I grabbed a torrent of one of their albums (this one). It completely blew me away so I went to learn more and found out the album hadn't been...

    What are you currently listening to?

    I've heard it in a lot of youtube videos, so I'm sure it's one of those royalty-free things.

    LF Tuning app for lower tunings (C standard and lower)

    In the past I was always massively skeptical of headstock tuners. Now I put a D'Addario micro on everything. I have a good tuner pedal, but it doesn't get used anymore.
