    Create Scales whenever you want

    The other part that I meant to mention is that scale are cool and all, but it is much easier and more important to really spend time learning the sound and feel of all 12 intervals. Like Unison, minor 2nd, Major 3rd, perfect 5th, etc… All scales in western music are going to be made up of some...

    Create Scales whenever you want

    Yeah, the whole thing with melodic minor is that it incorporates the natural 7 which gives you a dominant V chord(notated as V7) which gives you a V7-i progression and a V7-i in minor or V7-I in major is the strongest resolution in music, also known as a “perfect cadence”. The harmonic minor...

    Syn Bridge Pickup

    I wouldnt say that it shines in the cleans department, but it also matters how you EQ the amp, but then again I dont ever really describe the bridge pickup as “warm”, but you could also roll the tone back and roll off some of that treble. As far as distorted tones are concerned, its phenomenal...

    100% Beast and the Harlot Solo Tabs?

    I dont think theres a way to do it, also I’m working right now. All you have to do is right click the .pub file, hit “open with” and then go to your “program files” or “program files 86” or “program files 32” and go to power tab editor, open the folder, and choose the application as the default...

    100% Beast and the Harlot Solo Tabs?

    100% Beast and the Harlot Solo Tabs?

    Not a problem! I’m not sure where they are in my computer, but I’m sure they are somewhere. I’ll post them when I find them.

    100% Beast and the Harlot Solo Tabs?

    You are super close dude! I was wrong on that one part btw, it goes from 16th notes to 16th note triplets. But yeah, here’s a power tab copy tabbed out 99.9%. There’s one or two questionable things. Im downloaded one that was close and just changed the solo. I think I also have MIA and Save Me...

    Building Alternate Picking Speed

    Also, if anyone wants a brain teaser and to take things a little further. You can work on ALL the finger permutations for 4 fingers. You can do this with alternate picking and legato. You can also do this straight up and down the strings, or you can string skip. You can do this with 4 frets in a...

    Building Alternate Picking Speed

    The most important thing to ALWAYS remember when working on technique is that speed is a byproduct of play CLEAN. Don’t worry about being fast at first, just worry about making sure both hands and halves of your brain are synced up and moving in perfect unison. Right when a finger hits a fret...

    100% Beast and the Harlot Solo Tabs?

    Ill tab it out for you or something. The part where he’s playing differently is the ascending motif right before the last harmonized descending chromatic part that zacky doubles. I believe he picks 32nd notes there and it’s VERY fast. He doesn’t really do it live, because the audience has no...

    New Song by Gates!

    Phenomenal vibe dude! Reminds me a bit of king of leon, particularly “closer”. That song was my jam, paradise is my new jam. I would definitely be down for a whole album like this

    Lifting weights vs. Playing guitar.

    I lift heavy and don’t have too many issues with this. I also do a lot of stretching before I play, like a whole upper body stretch. I stretch lats, traps, biceps, forearms. I even try separating each pair of fingers as far as they’ll go to get wider stretches easier. The most essential, by far...

    My Fingertips ALWAYS Hurt. What's Wrong?

    Yes,the reason, as previously mentioned, is moisture on your calluses. You want them to be as dry as possible before playing. So avoid playing after a hot shower, avoid using any moisturizers or lotions. You can usually get away with washing and drying your hands before you play which I...

    Pictures of old Synyster Gates Clothing Line

    I still have a couple of those shirts, but theyre just stored away for nostalgia purposes now. They were super dope back in the day! To bad he stopped doing that.

    Hardest A7X solos

    I have learned MOST of his solos pretty proficiently and I can say, the two most difficult FOR ME were definitely MIA and higher. With MIA your economy picking has to be really controlled. With the licks in that one, there isnt much room for slop. With Higher, your legato has to be really even...
