    Originality/creativity

    The necessity of music theory depends on you. If you feel you need that to express your music, its absolutely worth it. If you think otherwise, that’s also fine. Your instincts will guide you. You can learn music theory later. Enjoying and challenging yourself is key.

    Originality/creativity

    There are so many things to try, so many perspectives to see in this area. Everyone deals it in a different way. I will tell you what helped me. 1. If you feel you are stuck with same chords as I was with B minor,G and A for months, just pick up any non familiar backing track from Youtube and...

    Idea for a video collab

    No. Just a collection of us, everyone, freely expressing ourselves over some common beat or chord progression

    how to play syn gates solos ?

    There is this guy called Chris Zoupa on youtube. He is the closest you can find to covering syngates accurately.

    Idea for a video collab

    I was thinking, can we, all interested syngates school members, do a video collab almost like the bandhub idea that came up weeks ago. But just with a difference. We will chip in with our own backing tracks. Of course there will be some one to join all the 30 second clips of each member to make...

    Songs to learn

    wow. so diverse answers. I am still trying to figure out the buried alive solo. Reached up to the point where the crazy sweeping starts. That’s just insane. Also I am working on how to play along arpeggios of unconventional chords. Paul gilbert style

    When You Are Buying a Guitar, What Do You Look For?

    The sound is the priority. But also the accuracy in terms of tuning. Foe example, an open lower E string, 5th fret on B string and 10th fret on G string should give the exact same note when properly tuned. many guitars do not have this thing. Also tune lock is better to have you are more into...

    good backing tracks?

    I always go to youtube for backing tracks. Whenever I search by genres, like, metal backing tracks, rock backing tracks etc, some interesting results show up ( i find the jazz ones the hardest). Also try the piano backing tracks. For me a piano and an electric guitar is a match made in heaven...

    My new track on Souncloud

    Ya. I have used it too. Its great. You also make tones and access tones online too. Found it pretty cool. Though the tones mimicking those of some classic songs like Comfortably Numb, Tender Surrender etc are not perfect

    My new track on Souncloud

    Ya Calvin. Its a Tweed. Also I used bridge and mid pickups together on My Fender Strat. You can suggest me some good soloing tones on Boss ME25. I actually need some

    My new track on Souncloud

    Thanks Calvin. I use a Boss ME25 processor ( which is obsolete by the way) and a Vox amp with bass and treble at 40%. Then I used Audacity to tweak the tone as well ( cutting down treble and enhancing the Mids). See the following if that helps. Preamp effect:- Tweed Drive amount 12 Tone amount...
