    Green Day - American Idiot cover

    Hi I posted here a few days ago asking for Green Day suggestions and got a lot of great ones I'm working through, started with this one (special thanks to Lindsey, Kim and Ari for suggesting this) and decided to film a cover for it :) Any feedback is more than welcome thank you!

    That playing is super tight awesome cover! Love the tone especially the chunkiness on those palm muted chugs! Also unrelated to the playing but the halo statue and the PC lights are also really cool lol

    Comment by 'CallumP' in media 'Alternate picking practice'

    Something that helped me was practicing to a metronome and going really slow with it (one stroke per click at 60BPM for example)! The trickiest part can be the string transitions and doing this gave me extra time to mentally prepare for changing strings! Also, just staying on one string and...

    My Competition Entry

    Sorry I'm very awkward talking to the camera haha! For my entry I have taken the teaching from the seven major scale positions and played them in one place on the neck which has helped me learn the shapes and differences better and how to apply them. The backing track is there to show the way...
