I feel my weakest points are these: Chord knowledge (sure, I know my powerchords, 3rds, 5ths etc, but "real" chords) Rhythms that doesn't use a pedalnote or even lots of palmmuting. Coming up with chordprogressions on the fly that aren't in the key of E or A Freestyling fills like Jake E lee or any of the blues gods. Different rhythm styles There you have it mate, you answered all your problems! - Start with this order and work on chords first. First check out in theory how chords are being made and derived out of scales. Then, start practicing those chords on the fretboard. - practice strumming the chords with various 16th note patterns - If you want to learn chord progressions that are not in the key of E or A, you need to know all the chords within a specific keys. There are 12 keys in diatonic theory, each having a specific set of 7 chords. Try to memorize them all - it will only do you good. - Try recording some fills of your own, in order to see what is important when creating them. Then analyze what you recorded. - If you want to learn some other style of music, the best way to do this is to start listening that particular style a bit, and try to create some of your own songs in that style. They don't have to be hits or anything, but just record something that will sound cool and in style. This is an excellent practice for that. -------------------- - Ivan's Video Chat Lesson Notes HERE
