Rhythm placement - 4
Cleanness - 3 Feel - 3.5 Posture - 3.5 Sound - 3.5 I'm always gentle man  Seriously, you need to work on your bends. As a simple exercise play some notes around the fretboard and try to get them - the SAME pitch - playing some frets before, doing 1/2 bend or a full bend and so on. Looking forward to see your next takes

Rhythm placement - 4
Cleanness - 3,5 Feel - 4 Posture - 4 Sound - 3,5 Nice The rhythm placement are good for the first half of the take, but it slips towards the end.It's the bends that are the biggest problem here. You have to listen more closely to when the right pitch is achieved, and then stop the bend. Jerry gave some good advice on how to fix this

Rhythm placement - 3.9
Cleanness - 3,6 Feel - 4.3 Posture - 4.2 Sound - 4.1 Good job! I agree with my fellow instructors, just a little work is needed on bend precision and a little work on rhythm placement. Besides that, good posture and nice tone. Good one! -------------------- |
