    Hyperspeed downpicking?!

    So i'm learning the intro riff to Another Heart by Tremonti and it has some insanely fast downpicking, like near master of puppets level for sure, and also a weird beat that makes it considerably harder.

    New content?

    So I haven’t been keeping up with the news of the site lately but I looked on syn’s Instagram and saw a lot of posts suggesting an updated lesson library from syn himself. I was just wanting to confirm if this is the case or if it’s something else.

    Seize the day

    Does anyone know of a good lesson out there for seize the day. I was thinking it would be the perfect song to help with chord transissions as well as being able to play an A7X song. Also if anyone has time to make a lesson that would be a huge help as well.

    This is a question that i don’t really know how to phrase, but I was wondering how you would get people in a band if you didn’t have a full group of people that you knew could play instruments. I am by no means anywhere close to being to play in a band but I do have a friend who is great at the...
