    Scream Solo Problem

    Hey Everyone, so I'm getting better at this solo, I've just still gotta work on my accuracy. The main problem I'm having right now though is that when I play the 2nd string it sounds pretty weird almost like I'm tapping the fret. I think the issue might be that I'm fretting it too hard so it...

    Scream solo picking pattern

    Hello everyone just wondering if anybody knew what the picking pattern to the solo in Scream is? I play it down up down and then up when playing the second string and then down up down etc but I'm not sure if this is the way Syn plays it.

    Song's for practicing technique

    That's great! , I think a mixture of excercises and songs works best because you get to have fun by playing a song you like and get better instead of nothing but boring excercises haha

    Song's for practicing technique

    Sweep Excercise

    Hey Guys! This a sweeping exercise I've just started working on recently from a guitar youtuber's udemy course. At first it was kinda tricky to play along to a metronome because of how many notes I'm supposed to play in 3/4 but I'm starting to get it down. Let me know what you think!
