Hello Lixxx!!!! I am glad you have decided to join my mentoring program!
I know you explained one of your goals in PM but I still would like you to answer more questions before we will start! Here they are! -What is your weakness? -What is your strongest point? -Your favorite guitar players? I am looking forward to work with you! And very excited to guide you through!!!! -------------------- |

Ok here is the Neo-Classical Part in a slow tempo.
NEO_RECO.WAV ( 3.17MB )
Number of downloads: 13I am able to play it full speed but especially the run on the e-string and the following sweep-arpeggio and pedal tone lick is still a bit sketchy. Also this way I hope you can analyze some more weak points. The extended sweep from the beginning is quite a challenge and Im working on it. I made an entry for the Lazy Rock Collab btw, let me know how you like it. Cheers Lixxx PS: I didnt forget the practice session report. Im moving in a new flat and Im quite busy schlepping boxes and getting the new flat tidied-up. Also I might have a buyer for my Amp, so hopefully you will enjoy some fresh licks, jams, and rec's once I have my recording tool ^^ . |

Too much flanger tho  I have been playing etudes for a long time and here is a couple of suggestions that might help! 1) I think you should slow down even more some of the notes weren't too clear and sometimes it sounds like you are struggling to get it up to speed! 2) Practice using a clean sound! This is a trick when you are learning etudes or any fast licks! If you can play it on clean you can play it with distortion! You will double your progress with a clean tone! (No effects at all!) I am glad to hear that some new upgrades are coming! Very excited to hear your new recordings! -------------------- |
