IS THAT YOUR MAMA?

Nope didn't think so either. We all know parents don't get this.

I can show you how to be the virtuoso your folks could only dream about, but I first need your help:

* Pm me and I will show you where to start. I am online every day and I will help you out directly!

* Join my mentoring program. I will customize your learning experience in a way you haven't experienced before. We will have regular contact so that you can remain inspired every day and eventually reach a new level.

* 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?

* Oh and did you know that to become a killer guitarist you just need to focus on one thing? Everything
else is secondary. Pm me and I will explain.

Jul 30 2013, 05:49 PM	GMC:er Posts: 741 Joined: 10-May 11 From: Netherlands	So I finally managed to get access to the forum back I went to Musicstore in Koln today to look at some shiny gear , played some PRS, some Sterling and Ibanez but came to the conclusion that I didn't any of these guitars more comfortable to play than my own, maybe its just because I am used to it I also redid some settings on my boss gt5 to get a better tone, took it back to basic without delays, chorus etc and then rebuilded again. Tomorrow I am going to get some wood to block my tremolo on my Rg550 to get it to drop the tuning. And yes, I still have to shoot video's over this week. But as said, I worked out one of the licks that I talked about and I am looking forward to let you hear it. but it has to be perfect Btw Cool video ! I saw your video with the other band, I really like it, You will become famous Gtrz from the Netherlands Marc You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Glad you had the opportunity to test the axes and it looks like you are a busy guy Now, blocking that trem is a great idea - what do you plan on performing with the drop tuning? That lick doesn't have to be perfect I need to correct something, right? And thank you - that song used to rock my childhood! You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.
