    That was KICKASS. I love your tone. Vibrato sounds great, and overall the sound is so clean. Hope to sound like that in the future!

    Comment by 'Anthony Peña' in media 'Layla - Analysis'

    This is awesome. I love watching analyses of songs. Thanks for sharing these with everyone! I do have one question (which means I probably will break off into ten questions): I'm studying music theory in college right now, and I've learned a lot about how harmony commonly works. But how do you...

    Hello! I'd love to do one. I'm not a beginner, but I also can't play anything super complex lol. So a nice middle ground would be fun! Thanks!

    Kickass. It sounds really good man! I think something that could use some work is your pinky control- it tends to fly off the fretboard. This is something that we ALL struggle with, but I think if you put in a few minutes every day of working on finger independence, you'll fix that in no time...

    SCALES THEORY - Lesson 7 - Melodic minor scale modes

    Would it be possible to get a tutorial explaining how we can use them? Or at least a suggestion of how to use them? I know that they can be applied in many ways, but I'd appreciate some jumping off points, if it's not too taxing to make a tutorial of.

    Hello

    The only rule really is not to be a jerk to other players. As far as practicing and posting, I would really only recommend being consistent and STARTING SLOW. Don't try to rush the material, otherwise you won't learn nearly as much. Also, don't be shy and post anytime you have questions, or...

    Newbie here!

    Welcome aboard! Let me just start off with this- I've been a member for almost a year now, and never bothered to post my playing until a couple of weeks ago. I lost out on so many good tips and help from everyone on here, and I regret it immensely. So if you're like me and feel a bit shy about...

    Comment by 'Anthony Peña' in media 'Lesson 38 (crossover picking)'

    Thanks! I'm so glad my playing is improving. I've never thought about playing solos with a clean tone, so I will definitely start doing that. I set the metronome to 3/4 because the exercise is 6 eight notes. I didn't realize I was giving it a triplet feel. Will work on that too. Thank you as...

    Lesson 38 (crossover picking)

    I took some advice from @Ben newton and worked on these things: 1) keeping my picking motion smaller 2) working on crossover picking before applying it to the alt. picking exercises 3) working on not rushing the metronome 4) using a clean tone while practicing If I still need work on any of...

    This. Is. Insane. Your technique is flawless!!! I hope I can get my pinky to stay down like yours. Also how relaxed your hands look. This is definitely something I'll keep referencing to check my technique. Can't wait to see more.
