Gab's Army, Any interested? |
HEY MAN, I really need your help...
...the thing is, I need you to start progressing faster then ever, but to achieve that I need your help:
* Don't know where to start? Just pm me and we will sort it out directly, I am online every day.
* Join My Army. Sounds aggressive? It is! We can study anything from the most fearsome picking techniques to bombastic songwriting. A medal of honor awaits the brave. Seriously, this is an opportunity for you to get a personalised learning experience...what are you waiting for?!
* Join my next video chat! GMC startpage holds a video chat schedule. We always cover a lot of ground and have fun. Remember that you don't need any previous knowledge, and you can be passive in the chat.
* Jam with me - you will find active collabs here.
* Post a topic on this board, guitar related or not - doesn't matter! You will find that chatting with instructors boosts your motivation to practice.
* You haven't missed my latest video lessons, have you?
* Finally I want to tell you a secret. Nah I changed my mind - pm me instead ;)

QUOTE (Fusar @ Apr 6 2012, 07:30 PM) Hey Gabriel! I think this is a fantastic idea... I wasn't very active the last months, had some work to do, but now I should find some more time for practicing, so it'd be great to join your army, so that I have some motivation to work regularly and to find time to work regularly ;-) Hi mate!

Hi Gabriel, i would like to join to your army, my axe is clean and ready to cut some spies, ninjas, or licks, or whatever...
Skills demo 1: http://soundcloud.com/jorge-fern-ndez/everybreath Skills demo 2: http://soundcloud.com/jorge-fern-ndez/stillgottheblues As you will notice, i'll have to spend some time at the training camp before you can send me to fight behind the enemy lines, but the day will come  I feel that my weaknesses are the tecnique and the tempo, and i think that my strenght is my knowledge of theory (at least compared to my hability to use it  ). I already know the major, minor and blues scales, but while improvising i don't sound as i wish Some of the groups i would like to emulate in the battlefield are: Hard Rock: Led Zeppellin, Guns And Roses, Deep Purple, Foo Fighters... Alternative / Grunge: Pixies, Nirvana, Pearl Jam... Metal: Metallica, Rhandy Roads (playing like him has to be awesome!), Dark Tranquillity, Nightwish, Blind guardian, Dio.... Well, there are lots of great musicians out there and i don't want to bore you Now i'm at your command... |

QUOTE (Mackerz @ Jul 2 2012, 06:09 PM) Hey Gabriel! I've been lurking as a quiet member here for awhile, now.. but after finally checking out a few of your lessons and finding out about this army business, I'd love to give it a go! My name's Jason, but you can call me Mack, after my last name MacNeil. I'm turning 30 this month, and I still consider myself very much an amateur/beginner on guitar. I've taken a few lessons in person, and I don't have many people in my area to jam with, so I'm throwing myself at the mercy of your army! I'll post a video of some stuff I can do currently in a bit so you can check out where I'm at, I'm kind of in a jam where I don't really know what to work on! I'm currently working on your HIM lesson (level 2) and will be taking on the edguy one (level 3) next! My favorite bands and influences are mostly power metal bands. Blind Guardian, Edguy, Elvenking, Falconer, Hammerfall, ect. ect. ect. Are your old group video chats archived anywhere? Thanks!  Hi Mack! I just opened a thread for you! Check it here: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/guitar_fo...showtopic=45035 My old Vchats are not able to be seen by now but you can check the lesson notes here: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/guitar_fo...showtopic=42832 You can ask me if you have any question about the exercises and also attend to my next Vchat if you want to see me playing any of those exercises. -------------------- My lessons

Hi Gabe,
I like to join your army and enhance my guitar playing. I've been playing since I was 13, but stopped for around 12 years and just got back on track again last year at the age of 31. I'm now 32 and would love to take my playing to the next level and I think learning from you would be the best step since I like your style and most of your lessons. So far, I consider myself as an intermediate player but with very little knowledge on theory especially scales and improvisation. I also developed an unorthodox playing technique and would love to correct it. I think also need to work on my hand synchronization and picking accuracy. Other than that, I think my playing is decent enough. Here is a sample of my playing with Jonathan Burgos' The Tasty Etude http://soundcloud.com/orly-arcelao/the-tasty-etude-1st-take Looking forward to learn with you.

QUOTE (Gabriel Leopardi @ Feb 19 2012, 01:46 PM) Hello guys! In this funny thread about instructor's armies, ninjas, spies, secret conspiracies, and many other things that are happening in these GMC dark days  , I had the idea to start my own Army to join forces and create the most unique guitar players of the world. The idea is to assign lessons every week directly related to your tastes, ability and weaknesses. Work on it, give you exercises and feedback to improve and master it. We will use the REC program to also get other instructor's feedback and also will join some collabs to work on theory and improvisation. Is there any interested in being mentored by me to be part of this Army. I accept everybody that is interested, even spies that already belong to other armies. Hi Gabriel, I've given considerable thought to joining an instructor's mentoring program, and because of my time constraints, I am limited to joining only one. As such, if you have room (looks like you have quite a few people under your thread), I would like to join your "army" so to speak. A Little about myself - I have been playing guitar on/off for about 5 years or so. I started when I was 19 and stopped around 21 when I took up sports and got married. 18 years later, I had to give up sports due to work obligations that didn't allow me to pursue my normal 3 day/week practice regimen. I can't not have a hobby - I am driven to pursue things I am interested in to see how well I can become. I picked up the guitar again about 3 years ago and haven't put it down. After playing a year alone doing mundane scales and exercises, I realized they were getting me nowhere because they lacked musical context. I found a studiio near my work that forms bands so I joined and have been playing in a band context for about 2 years now, having done about 10 shows and about 100 open mics. We are currently a trio and I'm the singer as well. Playing and singing are very challenging! But I love performing. I feel very limited in my ability to convey what I want to hear onto my guitar. I'm hoping you can help guide me in pursuing those aspects of my playing that I lack. I don't desire to be a shredder type of player - I want to be able to take a strong solo with fluid feel and add fast runs where appropriate and land on bends that climax the solo. I'm all about taste with a touch of flair. Bands I love: Opeth - side 1: Lamenations Dream Theatre David Menaketti : (2:15) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=woxcM5YTtPI...feature=related Steve Vai - there is only song by him I like - Tender Surrender Iron Maiden - still life Jason Becker - Altitudes Basically - songs with feel that can climax with strong and fast solos. It's the transitions to fast runs then back-out to slow soulful bends I really want to focus on. Learning good short burst runs, quick tasteful licks that exit to tasteful playing. I feel I have a mediocre grasp of taste - I know what sounds good and can emulate the feeling in bends and tone to a certain point (there's always room for growth), but what I lack are the technical skills to jump into fast runs then pull out again. That's what I hope to practice. I found several lessons on GMC I'm looking interested in - not the entire lesson, but small pieces of runs that interest me. If you have recommendations and can help me stick to a lesson plan to develop these, I would be a happy camper. these are the lessons I've been looking at: all well above my skill level, but contain licks I'd like to try to bring up to a decent speed.
