    I've Got a REALLY Exciting Idea!!

    So sorry for keeping you waiting, I have decided to take this opportunity to challenge myself to make a melodic improv to take a break from the speed runs that I am currently playing to balance it all out. Couldn’t really film as I whipped it up quick.

    Yean, about 4 years into my playing I really got into his playing and I am still heavily influenced by him, It is the main reason I still play the pentatonic scale so much 😂.

    Damn is good to be back, since leaving the school for a short while to focus on college I have came up with a cool run but the downside is thst at full speed it id pretty fast and kind of sloppy, I have tried playing to a metronome but I cant find the right BPM. Does anyone know any methods?

    This is a really great idea, I look forward to seeing how it turns out, it will be a huge booster for the more shy students and I think it is a huge benefit to the community.

    Upgrades for cheap floyd rose

    Schaller floyds are really good alternatives and some people say they are better. If you want a proper floyd the 1000 series is always an option.
