    I am struggling to find the desired tone from my guitar and amp. help.

    First my gear: Fender Strat (8 yrs old, 3 single coil pickups) Boss ME25 processor VOX pathfinder amp I am a massive massive fan of huge, wide rhythm guitar tones, tones which absolutely crush anything it sees under its synyster weight. For example, Rhythm tone from songs Hail to the King and...

    Feeling limited

    I was and still facing the same problem (not with the caged system but in general, with some scales and modes like phrygian dominant). I went through the whole thread and found some useful tips, especially from Jak's video. She mentioned that it depends on what type of guitarist you wanna be...

    What did you listen to ten years ago?

    Three finger power cords

    Alicia I use my pinky, and i find it really impressive that you (and some other guitarists) can actually bend their ring finger to play power chords. But, everyone's body, hands, fingers, comfort level acts and reacts differently. Do what you feel comfortable. eventually, you will face power...

    At the point of giving up.

    try breaking down the expected progress level. instead of thinking " i will master this solo in 1 week", try " i will master 1st 5 seconds of this solo in 7 days" , then next 5 sec and so on. Be patient chief. without patience and consistency, everything will seem difficult

    Nice one Dominik. Give practicing in fragments a try. So for example, there are some pickings which are within the string gap and there are some which crosses the string gap. just practice those small bits and then incorporate those in this routine. It helped me quite a bit

    Don't loose sight of how far you've come!

    This is a beautiful post and one of the reasons what makes this school so awesome. This happened to me quite a while back when I met this friend who was a good guitarist. His style was(and is) very different from mine. I became a little bit doubtful of my own playing instead of learning good...

    To lift the finger or to not lift the finger?

    My finger lifts off too, but it really depends on what you are comfortable with. It does not seem like you have to keep middle finger on the string to play that part unless you are going for the momentarily creepy sound.

    Perfect record

    This is very interesting question to me cuz this type of records change for me from time to time, like a phase you may say. And its usually 1 song at a time. So any song with killer guitar solo is out of question for me since I am guilty of skipping to the solo for 100 times in a row. Recently I...
