First of all this lesson rules.
 But I have a question, if I play it (and I can now at 100BPM) I CAN play it but the bends are way to short because of the BPM. Do you play the bends etc longer like 2 beats or something? I'm playing with a metronome btw  Grtz, Angelo -------------------- Homer J. Simpson: Rockstars is there anything they dont know?

yep, just use double. You can also see this in the GP5 file I think. If you get confused by this, just get your metronome alongside Gabriel and see what he does. Or play using the backing and just don't use the metronome once. It's more inmportant that it sounds nice than having all the notes perfect but bad sound.
btw dont' you think the first pull part is hard? I can finally play it! I'm only still to slow at the -------5-------5--- -----5-------5---- --7b-----7b----- part  well I just gotta keep trying:Pcya kaz -------------------- |

No I dont find the first pull part hard.
 and that part that you say, I just let my ringfinger on the string for the bend and I keep it bended, and then I just have to switch my index finger within the 2 other strings.  Thx for the help. of zoals we hier zeggen: bedankt voor de hulp

There is not only one way to pick this type of licks. I prefer this picking directions: Down - Down - Up -------------------- Visit my Personal Board

Gab, I totally LOVE this lesson!
 This seems like such an easy lick, but I, too, am having difficulty with it.QUOTE (kaznie_NL @ Jan 11 2008, 02:00 PM) -------5-------5--- -----5-------5---- --7b-----7b----- I am muting the G string with my index finger but I am getting string noise from the D string when I lift my finger off the 7th fret G string. Should I be muting it with my right palm? Or would just practicing this lick over & over til I get it right, do the trick?

You have to mute the D string with the palm of your right hand, that's the solution! -------------------- Visit my Personal Board
