    Planning to return stronger

    Not a big trivium fan....now...never was a big metallica fan neither...More of a Megadeth guy. But I am gonna listen more trivium then. Also Maiden.

    Planning to return stronger

    How's it going Synners? I took a little break of guitar, like 3 days (which is LONG for me) and I want to declare my return to the instrument (the addiction). I've been meditating regarding my biggest problem. Its speed....I cannot play fast to save my life. Alternate picking the spider...

    Hand size and guitar (what's yours?)

    Wellp.... Pinky to thumb is around 9 inches and pinky to index is around 7 inches. Both measures taken while expanding the hand. After seeing your video and your playing (and your comment on the video replying to mine), I am encouraged to try the stretches before a good guitar session.

    Gotcha! Thanks for the insight! And yess thoose AZ guitars are beautiful and when I saw they made a leftie version I lost my shit......very versatile instruments which I love. My Epiphone Les Paul Custom has a coil split and it completely spoiled me...

    So I have been doing some listening to the A7X catalogue and some songs really stood out to me. Brompton Cocktail from the self titled album and Planets from Hail to the King (HTTK). I just feel like these 2 songs are so unique within the context of the album. For instance, Plantes sounds much...

    Let's talk Goals, dream guitars, stuff you look foreward to this year.

    Regarding my goals I have several: I want to find a definite guitar positioning for myself, where I can play comfortably in. I also want to figure out what works for me regarding my picking hand. I would also like to expand my speed ( I know speed kills and what not...but some solos that I...

    Down in the dumps with guitar

    Thank you all for the encouragement. You are right. I will focus on enjoying myself. It is a lot of hard work. I have forgotten how far I've come in my playing....like playing a barre chord for the first time took me months too. I just think that I've let myself become less curious and...

    Getting into the right mindset, yeah I truly have to focus on having fun and improving. Thanks

    Down in the dumps with guitar

    Yeah I have been focused too much on improving fast instead of actually having fun. My ego and desperation got in the way of actually enjoying my instrument. Thanks mate
