    SGS PEDAL COMPETITION ENTRY - (CIRCLE OF FIFTHS - LESSON 37)

    One of Syn's really useful tips in Lesson 37 was to commit as much of the Circle of Fifths to memory as possible - something I had put off doing for a while before joining the school. So I decided to memorize it properly and see if I could write a short instrumental cycling through all 12 keys...

    No problem at all! It's funny, sometimes your hand can have a complete mind of it's own and go with what's more comfy at the time haha. You'll notice it more the slower you practice it, but you'll have it nailed in no time :D Good luck!

    Win a free pedal! 🔥

    Amazing! When you say 'Create a Riff' do you mean uploading a video of you using the technique and upload it in the 'Riffs' section, or do you mean to actually write your own riff using one of the techniques with Syn's tips? :unsure:

    Great work on this so far! 👌 A weird trick I use with stretches (and awkward hand positions in general) is to make the stretch, hold both notes down as hard as you can - like really over exaggerate, pretend you're the hulk - and count 10 mississipis. Repeat this 4 or 5 times and your hand should...

    Sounding great so far! 🤟 When you hit your D chord, try and see if you can either aim for the D string to start your strum or block the Low E & A string with your left hand thumb - this will allow you to get a good attack on the chord without worrying about hitting the extra open notes 😊 I'd...

    How many until you start to mess up?

    Ah that familiar feeling where you can't feel your hands and you're strangely happy about it :ROFLMAO:

    How many until you start to mess up?

    I'm actually taking a month off of the Rum but I'm up for trying this when I resume :ROFLMAO: My nickname in my band's group chat is 'Lightweight' so...likely not many haha

    ABBEY ROAD by The Beatles

    So I've just finished the album and I'm kicking myself that I've never listened to it back to back before! The only way I can describe it is a musical feast 👌 I sat with this one tried to type notes for every song so I wouldn't forget what stood out - my favorite track kept changing as I...

    LEAVING FEEDBACK ON RIFF VIDEOS

    Thanks for bringing this up @Jak Angelescu! It's something I know I need to start doing👌 In terms of giving feedback - As someone who teaches for a living - I think it's really important how you give it if you want someone to take it onboard - sometimes brutally honest can have the opposite...
