So there's the slightest chance I may have just figured out my sweep picking for Not Ready To Die. Had a quick mess around while setting some stuff up, and I thought I'd give it a quick go with a smaller pick and a much looser grip. It felt much better, not perfect still but better. Sad thing is...- Matt Wildcat

Heretic Intro - First attempt
Wanted to do some rhythm work since I've done lots of solo stuff, and ended up here. Wanted to give myself a bit of a challenge and man did I get one! Here's my first attempt at the intro for Heretic! It's messy particularly at the end of the intro where I can't quite place the notes, but not...- Matt Wildcat

Two Solo/Song Ideas?
Okay, so I went rummaging though some old recordings, and found two of these song/solo ideas I'd completely forgotten about! So here I am, showing them off for the first time! They're crap attempts, I need to write them down and work on them properly, but here they are. Would love to know what...- Matt Wildcat

Hope County - Useful Practice Piece!
Wanted to cover this for a while! I use this piece as a warm-up and general practice piece anytime I play because it's great for stretching, sliding, and especially vibrato! I'll post a tab shortly once I write it all down, as I worked it out by ear originally! If there's any questions, let me...- Matt Wildcat

CAGED System Arpeggios+Pentatonics - My Understanding
A day late due to finishing up college stuff, but here's my next part of my CAGED System understanding! A lot of rambling and going back and forth here as I try to make sure I know what I'm doing and talking about, but I think I got there eventually! Now I just gotta expand and experiment with...- Matt Wildcat

Mine used to be alt picking, but then when I started learning eco, I unintentionally switched over to that, and now I find it really hard to alt pick some stuff even when I want to 😂- Matt Wildcat

Comment by 'Matt Wildcat' in media 'CAGED System Chords - My Understanding'
Ahhh, that makes so much more sense! I completely glossed over that bit about the lowest note and just thought it was the furthest note along the fretboard! Thank you!- Matt Wildcat

Comment by 'Matt Wildcat' in media 'CAGED System Chords - My Understanding'
Oh - A general question for anyone who knows to answer if you can - So when I use the C shape as the first in the pattern, it creates a D. When I start with A as first, it creates a B. What is the system to work out what the next chord is? If I played G, would it become an A? Would E become F...- Matt Wildcat

Comment by 'Matt Wildcat' in media 'CAGED System Chords - My Understanding'
Awesome, thank you for clearing that up for me! I didn't even think about what note my pinky was hitting, I really gotta make sure I brush up on those! So, would I be right in saying that anytime the C shape is played, it's like a little 'reset' of the pattern, if you will?- Matt Wildcat

CAGED System Chords - My Understanding
Finally back to playing now that my chest ins't trying to end me XD. Thought I'd go back to the CAGED system as I've covered it briefly before but wanted to really work on making sure I understand how it works and how I can use it! Here, I go over the chord shapes and how moving the shapes to...- Matt Wildcat

Recording a vid on the CAGED system today (briefly stepping away from the Scales so I don't burn myself out!) but beforehand I thought I'd warm up by running through a few songs (With me mum, funnily enough). Mostly just looked up chords, but I found there were a few songs had listened to but...- Matt Wildcat

So, I've been back to playing this week after recovering, and the one thing that's been really getting me is that, no matter what I do, I STILL cannot get any sort of comfortable pick position. I'm not gonna lie, it's really disheartening because I feel like I should be able to sort out such a...- Matt Wildcat
