Here is where the magic happens: the REC board turns bedroom guitarists into real pros. Remember - it doesn't matter if you fail or pass, as long as you keep posting REC takes you will progress.
The entries will be graded by a number of instructors. After grading, members will be accredited with the appropriate points if they pass, and adjustments will be made to their REC level.
Passing grade is 6 or higher.

Rocking Tune Intermediate
Link to original lesson:Here. Guitar: PRS Custom 24 Amp: Line6 HD500, Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier Model. Sonar, Sony Vegas, etc. I've been working on this take for a long time, probably since just after I started at GMC. Notice that I did the faster part with legato instead of picking every note. For my ability, I had to do it this way, but at least that part of the song lends itself to legato pretty well. Instead of double picking the open G string I finished each part of the lick with a hammer on note. It sounds good this way even though I would have rather used AP here, but just can't seem to push my AP speed limit even to this sort of medium speed. As for the rest of the song, I think the best part of learning this was that it plays all over the fretboard and really gets you used to moving around. My main criticism of my playing here is that it sounds a little bit rushed to me. Especially in the beginning where it's supposed to be "heavy sounding" with notes on the downbeat. Tell me if you agree or not with my assesment here, does it indeed sound rushed? Anyway, all in all, it turned out pretty good I think. I'm pleased with it for the most part. Looking forward to your comments... This post has been edited by skennington: Mar 26 2011, 09:05 PM |

tone is really nice! very good overall playing,
I would agree about the slight timing displacement, and also sometimes there's some slight intonation issues, very subtle, but worth mentioning, those will 'correct" by themselves just by keep on doing it, practicing, but being conscious of them, listening carefully, for instance, watch this video and notice where it is happening and pick up that bar and play it 10 times until the problem is gone, -------------------- Visit my:
