This is a very hard piece out of the gate, i think you almost are there with it. You have a very small amount of rhythm issues, i think with a little practice you can tweak it. I think its mostly a problem of getting your hands ready for the next monster run, so there is a bit of hesitation, and then a rush to fill the gap.



What stood out to me most why i gave a lower score for cleaness is your bends in this piece are not up to pitch. Really work on making your bends comes to pitch.

The feeling of this lesson is not quite there yet, but i feel that its because your so focused on the technique its hard for you to let go ....yet.


I gave you a higher rating on Posture, mainly because i think i heard you say in another post that your kind of a really big guy, its hard to play sitting down and not hunch over like that since you are much taller.

Over all its a very excellent take, and your tapping skills are really top notch! Kudos!

Very good Monte. Sometimes not perfectly in the beat and some notes are a bit dirty but nearly there. This is a hard one but you did a good job. Try less drive or different amp type. This is a bit too agressive distortion.

Great playing, I cab´t play this piece so I will just jugge of what I hear....
1) The bendings (vibrato) require some work, they are slightly out of tune (-1 cleanness) and the rythm becomes weird (-0.5 feel).
You must check the nice articulations Muris is using, not all the notes are the same, and a lot of accents are missing, for example at 1:03 (the "chorus" of the song) check on Muris, ther is a slight marking on the ob beat notes and the off-beat notes are grouped towards those. It´s something like DA da-da-DA da-da-DA ' da-da-da-da-da-da-da-DA (the "Da" is a marked note...the "da" is a no marked note and I put some "-" in between the "DAs" to show how they can be grouped.
Another place to mark are the syncopas, in this piece (for example at 0:57 somethink like "da da-re da DA!" is calling.
If any question feel free to ask, thanks for submiting!
