    Concert Advice

    I hope this link works as I couldn't find any other way to insert this image. I'm planning on seeing Aveneged for the first time in October but I need help deciding what seats to get. The link is a screenshot of the seating chart, so please look at it and tell me what seats would be best. The...

    Wanna share something

    Even though I haven't met any of you in person, I feel like you're all family. I know I haven't been around here much, as I've been focusing on some more basic guitar stuff and been working on my mental health issues. I didn't want to share this on my socials but I wanted to tell someone and I...

    Proud of myself

    I know it's not a big achievement but I picked out the vocal line for the first verse of "Holding out for a hero" by Bonnie Tyler.

    SynTV stream issue

    Don't know where to post this or who to ask but has anyone gotten this before? In the middle of them answering my question my stream went offline. I refreshed and got this. It's not working on my app either. It's very frustrating. Not that I'm blaming anyone. I haven't had too much sleep. Guess...

    My cousins A7X art

    My cousin is autistic and LOVES rock and metal. He has an encyclopedic memory of rock and metal facts. He has 4 sketch books filled with drawings of bands. Most of which I've never heard of. Anywhos, he drew A7X. I don't think he has the spatial reasoning to understand a left handed guitarist...

    Waking the Fallen tempo change?

    Hope I can explain this question well. Obviously WTF is the same power chord repeated. But at 53 seconds when everything comes in, it sounds like the rhythm changes or the tempo changes on the guitar or maybe an extra note? Are my ears playing tricks on me? Maybe the Revs drum riff is throwing...

    Account upgrade question

    I just got an alert that my annual legend upgrade is about to expire. Do I need to renew it if I was already given the Legend+ upgrade?

    Make a 6 string sound like 8

    I know. Weird title. So my boyfriend showed me the song Doom BFG Division by Mick Gordon. I really wanna learn the guitar part for him but I don't have an 8 string guitar.....yet. So is there a way to make 6 strings sound like 8 or transpose the tab somehow? The strings from lowest to highest...

    Sad But True/This Means War mashup

    We all know the similarities in the songs but this mashup is so fucking heavy. I love it.

    Natural Born Killer riff sounds like......

    Ok. I might be crazy. Probably am. But the main riff in Natural Born Killer is bugging me because it sounds really similar to another riff that's NOT done by A7X. It's the main riff that comes in at around 27 seconds after the "ding". Anyone know what riff it sounds like? Or my ears just might...

    Metalcore suggestions

    K. So I've been listening to WTF a lot lately. Love Shads vocals. Anyone have any suggestions for metalcore bands that sound similar? I'll admit that WTF is the closest I've ever been to metalcore. Unless you count Linkin Park (Hybrid Theory) but I think they're classed as Nu-Metal. They often...

    Is there a difference in your opinion?

    Sidewinder outro

    Am I right that PG is playing the outro guitar on the left side and Syn is on the right side of the speakers? Just trying to see if I can tell the difference between their styles.

    Why can't I do this?

    I revisted PG's lesson of the 6 magic notes for soloing. I was trying to use those notes while playing over the backing track but it just sounds disjointed and there was no flow. I know that I won't sound like PG, Syn, or some of the other students in the riff section overnight, but I don't know...

    Nylon string hammer ons

    Anyone have tips on playing Hammer ons on a nylon string guitar? I'm working on the intro to Roundabout. I can pull it off pretty well on the D string, but on the G string the note dies so quickly. Do I just gotta get faster?

    As if I needed more pressure lol

    So I just rediscovered Jerry fucking Reed. Now I gotta get as good as Syn, Jimmy, AND Jerry. :LOL: He's my favorite finger picker.
