    The Ultimate Reward

    Wow Ed, I have a new nick name for you brother, “The Truth”. What I’ve just read from my brother, Ed “The Truth” Seith, gives me the chills. Unfortunately, both types. It devastates me that people could treat such warmth and transcendent kindness with such cold and brutal hostility. I will not...

    Kfir's Riffs

    Amazing job Kfir, I totally agree with Ed, Jak, and Calvin! I have nothing more to add, you really are on the right track. With the best players, it’s all about the details and you seem to understand that and are working on it. Much love to you and thanks for the great advice family!!

    Still Having "Dead Tone" Issues

    Dumb question but did you change the battery? A bad battery will absolutely destroy your tone. Cuts the signal in half

    Who recommends learning solos with little to no effects?

    I have to agree with Jak here. I spend equal amounts of time playing in various situations because they all have their challenges. -Practicing on acoustic guitar will strengthen the fingers greatly and help you to project/play with volume and dynamic. -Clean electric guitar will expose the...

    HAHAHAHOHO-HOLY SHIT JAK! This is priceless! This is why you will never ever ever fail at life! My god this is bold, beautiful, and frighteningly honest.

    ***Beginner's Mental Block: Get Out of Your Own Head!!!***

    Fuck, mind blown Jak! As an influencer, I feel like this is the most difficult thing to say to someone that is so down on themselves. Idols look so perfect from a far. Their story so predestined. Their path so perfectly paved. BUT, nothing could be further from the truth. The COLD HARD FACT is...

    Any tips for Syns solos?

    Hey Jaylen. Theres an app called Capo https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/capo-3/id696977615?mt=12 I actually use this to learn my own solos when we are playing a new song or something we haven’t played in a while. It slows down the excerpt you’re trying to learn without a lot of unwanted artifacts...

    Cab Packs

    Hey guys, so my friends at Fractal are addressing a bug in FractalBot with the Axe Fx II as I am typing this. This should fix the aforementioned issues. As far as what cab and mic combos go with what tone, I’d have to take some time to really go through the spec sheets. What I do know, is that...

    Solo Trouble

    Great work Sayonil! Very well explained and great example! The reason I like short videos like this is that it’s very easy for beginners to digest. It’s one simple concept and one simple example but executed at a very high level. VERY helpful. So yes, please feel free to do more videos, we can’t...

    Solo Trouble

    Hey Ids, I would strongly recommend that you try going public once more. If you hate it, then fuck it. I really want to build all of your followings and reputations as educators and influencers. The reason is… one of the very NEXT things I have planned for you, is to create a platform where...
