    wow. Lots of really great advice. I will just add one more thing. Speed is absolutely nothing without accuracy.

    Guitar to PC?

    D K, thanks for bringing this up. This is a very common problem that we guitarists face, including me. I did some research on it. I use windows 10. Apparently no one, even the microsoft people cannot come up with a full proof solution. There is always some delay. You update your drivers, change...

    How do I stop the low E string sliding off the fretboard?

    Put less force on the low E string unless you absolutely need to (for example, a long legato lick). The low E string is a heavy string so it usually rings longer than others. So no need to put extra pressure. Just gently hammer on it

    Guitar to PC?

    I would say it does not matter which program you use. Just connect the amp with laptop via any usb cable whose other end is a standard 1/4″ jack. Go to your speaker settings and check the box “listen” on the recording device ( which usually shows up as a P2P device). There you go. To listen to...

    Tips for The Stage intro tapping? Reduce noise! (Too much)

    The chris zoupa tutorial is really good. Some players use a hair band close to nut so that you can easily slide it across the nut along the neck. It just needs a swift touch to get it on/off strings. Syn does not use it may be cuz….he is THE syn.

    How Did You Get Into A7X? Did The Music Help You Cope Ever?

    To be honest I was accidentally introduced to a7x. I have a habit of putting YouTube on auto play while I study during exams. So last year I put on the song Holy wars by Megadeth. The auto play was changing the songs on its own as usual as I was lost in my stuff with C and C++. Suddenly I heard...
