    Thank you soooooo much!!! I had a quick mess around trying it with a few bits I use to warm up, and it's still a little tough, but hopefully it will get better as I keep going!! ❤️ ❤️

    A Minor Pentatonic Day 2 - Pinky Focus

    Yesterday, @Jak Angelescu mentioned that I should look to improve how I use my pinky finger, and so that's what I focused on today! A few notes: 1. The tucking-behind problem seems to be sorted, I think? 2. It still tends to stray from the fretboard a lot, it's hard to keep it close. 3. I think...

    Ahhhhh, thank you so much, Momma Cat!! It was definitely a real tough practice session this morning, but I know if I keep at it, I'll start making some good progress! I was wondering about my pinky, honestly, it's always been such a pain to control. I'll make that my focus for tomorrow, and if...

    Synner Sunday - A Minor Pentatonic Scale Positions

    Trying to get back into things - Again! Working on the A Minor Pentatonic Scale, but all across the fretboard today, as shown to me by Bill. A few things to note that I'm trying to work on with this: 1. Keeping my thumb behind the fretboard 2. Using the tips of my fingers, not the pads 3. When...

    Damn, that's an incredible story from the man himself!! I've been seriously enjoying this album for the last few days so it's awesome to hear your take on it!

    So I found a lot of my old guitar videos recently, and figured that while I haven't gone crazy in learning new things (I'm planning to go ham on it once I'm out of my last month of college! :eek:🤩) I know for sure that I've certainly improved on a lot of the songs I do know, since I use a lot of...

    A bit of a bizarre one to come back with, but it's something I've been working on (by ear, as usual), and I thought I'd share it with you as I'm super proud of it! I need to get my pinky finger working a bit more, as there's plenty of opportunity, it's just making sure it sounds good and is...
