Here is where the magic happens: the REC board turns bedroom guitarists into real pros. Remember - it doesn't matter if you fail or pass, as long as you keep posting REC takes you will progress.
The entries will be graded by a number of instructors. After grading, members will be accredited with the appropriate points if they pass, and adjustments will be made to their REC level.
Passing grade is 7.5 or higher.

Original lesson: Blues Rhythm Guitar by Sinisa Cekic
I needed to get serious with some blues rhythm. This lesson is great for me to break out of my very plain blues rhythm playing. Hopefully with some more practice I can add some more fire into this! You guys always point out something in my playing that I would not pick up on. These REC sessions have been very helpful. Thank you!!! -------------------- ![]() |

Very good shot !! A felt a small dose of uncertainty, but generally pretty good! A few phrases you didn't played as it should,but suppose that this is,as you say, a great progress for you,I will not put some major objections ! You're on the right track, just continue to practice, I believe that this could be for highest grade very soon !

Very good playing, DG !
My only criticism is that the bendy notes around 0:14 didn't come out very well but everything else was pretty solid so well done ! -------------------- |

Hey mate! I agree with the guys and I must say that you only have to practice a bit more in order to get things ready for a higher grade. At this point you are missing a bit of flow in the take and that's exactly what you shall gain through insistent practicing

This is a good take! As the other instructors said, with some little adjust in timing and expression (bends and vibrato) this take could be even better. By the way this is a 9 for me! Well done!

I like your sound and you did a very good job on this lesson!
Your timing need some improvement when you are switching chords and strumming! What you can do is to play those phrases at a very slow tempo using a metronome and in a few days it will be perfect! -------------------- |
