    So I won the guitar give away VU was having! They’re shipping out my guitar at the end of this week and I’m super stoked! Like unbelievably stoked haha. 😀 I want to break it in proper ZV fashion though. So the first song I’m gonna jam to on it is obviously going to be a7x, and it’ll be Zacks...

    What did you learn…

    Ah that’s awesome! Excellent choice! I attempt some Django and Gypsy Jazz when I can, I struggle a bit, but have been slowly picking it up over the last few years. I’m better at listening to django then playing any of his music though 😛

    What did you learn…

    While the site was down we obviously didn’t have access to any lessons from it, or to the forum to bounce things off of each other! So I’m curious, what did you all work on/learn during that in between time? For me, I focused on learning both guitars on the song “Sweet Black Angel” by The...

    How can you tell you have practiced too much?

    I know I’ve been practicing too much when I start to play badly haha If I practice for let’s say, 4 days in a row, 3 hours a day, by day 5 I’m actually a bit sloppy and not making as much progress as I was the days before and that’s when I know I need to take a day or two off 🙂 I’ve been really...

    I need band suggestions…

    Mew. Not a heavy band, they’re from Denmark but everything is in English. More so alternative but they have put out some of the greatest music of all time in my opinion. They sound like walking through a pleasant dream while falling in love. I can’t hype them up enough hahahahaha 😛

    Get Well Soon, M!

    Poor M, he feels bad about it but it can’t be helped. I was stoked to see them again too but nothing can be done here, and I feel bad that Shads feels so bad, it makes me sad because you can tell how much it’s bugging him. We all love Shads, and he’ll be back to killing it in no time 😀

    Metronome: Is It Doing You More Harm Than Good?

    EXACTLY! I think there is a time and place for both but having a good drummer to play with is awesome and it’s def more enjoyable and exciting haha. Of course there are situations when a metronome is more practical, but I feel very fortunate to have such an excellent drummer two doors down the...

    Metronome: Is It Doing You More Harm Than Good?

    Damn good advice here Jak, especially #5! I use metronomes a decent amount, I probably could and should use them a bit more when I’m just noodling around, but my younger brother is an excellent drummer and I also enjoy jamming with him much more than using a metronome. I feel like having a solid...

    The Synyster Gates Shirts Are 😱😱!!

    @jak Yeah I’ve seen the school logo ones, I was more so talking about the logo tee and flag tee 🙂 I’ll probably end up with the school shirt eventually but I’m waiting for the other two first. They have more of a clothing line feel to them, and I’ve been waiting like 9 years for something that...

    Fast picking?

    Yep, if I’m understanding correctly, what Adin said should definitely help! Try to have less of the pick exposed, and maybe try hitting the strings a bit lighter. When I first started, hitting the strings and picking too hard in general was one of my biggest issues. Hopefully someone here is...
