    Show us your music collection

    I have about 150 CDs and Appetite for Destruction as vinyl. Its a weird mixture. I have no idea how to post pictures here. I really love to have them because of the artwork and I am an old-fashioned collector. I even collect stamps 🙂

    What are you currently listening to?

    In my case it works with copy the page adress. Maybe you’ve forgot to leave a gap. I think you wanted to post Left right wrong. I like both the new and the old TDG. But I got used to Matt’s voice by listening to My Darkest Days. Matt’s and Adam’s voice are really different. I really like Im an...

    Myles Kennedy article for guitarist

    It would be so interesting to hear him singing some of these songs nowadays. I’m listening to Second Skin right now and it’s crazy how the sound changes. For example from Lyla to Eden. Myles is amazing 🙂

    Myles Kennedy article for guitarist

    I haven’t thought about favorites yet. But I think Love can only heal is really awesome. I’ve digged Year of the Tiger and Haunted by design as singles before the album release. In terms of lyrics Love can only heal is gold.

    Myles Kennedy article for guitarist

    Yeah I think it’s great. I will buy it. It has a different vibe than Alter Bridge or Slash. I think you hear that it is Myles Kennedy own thing. Have you listened to it?

    Guitar slipping

    You can find a good position for the guitar if you find the position of the guitar in your lap where it stays without your hands holding it. Find the position everytime before you start playing. I had the same problem when I bought my electric guitar. I was only playing a acoustic at that...

    Singing AND playing?

    You have to be able to play the song without thinking about it before you can sing to it. I can’t do it at all but that’s not my number one goal what means I don’t spend much time trying it.

    Evil stretch and finger strength

    Sven’s Ex4 would be crazy. I would have so much trouble to play Ex3 on the low E string. That would be bad.

    Oh congratulations 🙂 They will be back.

    @ D K That’s the reason I posted this topic.

    Have you read this?? (here at the school)

    I don’t know if this is new but I just found it. It’s so funny and interesting to read the album commentaries. Avenged Sevenfold

    Synyster Gates School Merch?

    I would love a book with blank tabs on every other page. I know this is kind of difficult. It’s so difficult to note ideas over than recording yourself.

    Getting startet on Acoustic?

    I think it is very useful to learn the chordnames. Here are some awesome lessons for doing so. I really love the sus2 and sus4 chords and the change from major to sus2 and this works with every chord. To give you a little motivation for learning it I share an awesome experience I had while...

    Strings

    You can get a string winder in every guitar shop or online. A string winder will help you and it will take less time and I bought mine for 1 or 2 €. The first time it takes a bit long but it’s not difficult to do if you do it along to a video. I would totally recommend learning it because you...

    Which countries are you from?

    And some younger bands like Emil Bulls, Callejon and Heaven shall burn and of cause Rammstein. For Punks there are the Beatsteaks. As well as some nice alternative stuff as Cluseo. He writes crazy lyrics. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-9l6hT6x_zE

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

    @jak I totally agree with you. I just watched the video. Thanks for the recommendation. What Rob Halford does with his voice is magic. The acoustic version is awesome, too. There are so many people that listen to music just for entertainment. But music can be so much more. I figured out that...

    Changing string

    I’m not sweating that much while playing so my strings look shiny. It also helps to wipe them of after playing. The last time I changed strings it was because I try around with different strings and I didn’t like the feeling of coated strings (elexier).
