    Lost passion

    Hey Synners. Long time no see! I’ve been absent lately because life, but I digress. I need help, and I feel my fellow Synners may be able to help me. I used to be so passionate about making music, I always wanted to play my guitar, I wanted to learn everything about it. Lately though, I have...

    My entry for Jared Dines Shred Collab

    I wrote and learned this solo this week to submit for Jared Dines Shred collab. Unfortunately I was not chosen to be in the top 20, but I pushed my playing on this one. I would love my synner community to hear it and give feedback. Papa and Syn, hope you guys dig it too.

    Anxiety while… choosing music?

    So this has been something on my mind for a long time. Lately I haven’t been able to truly expand my listening habits. I’m worried I’m “listening to the wrong thing” to get to be the best guitarist/musician I can be, so I default to albums I know and love but never find new music. It has led to...

However, it is so much easier said than done. my hard part is that I want this so badly to be my source of...

    Picking arm and fretting thumb movement

    I am curious how you were able to get rid of the tension. I have been working on that for a while now and can’t seem to stop tending up. Any tricks?

    Can I buy you boys a beer?

    Hey Syn and Papa Gates, I am in Huntington Beach for the next week and a half for NAMM and vacation, and I would love to talk guitar and music with you guys and buy you a beer or a shot of Ardbeg. If you have time, let me know. I’ll meet you at Johnnys! Forgive me if I’m overstepping, but you...

    How to shred?

    There are some simple patterns within each scale shape that you can use to go faster on the fretboard, usually without much motion. One example would be taking three notes on one string then moving to the string above or below in a triplet pattern. More of a flashy trick, but sounds pretty cool...
