What are your future plans for lessons?
And by any chance could you do an Alex Lifeson (Rush) lesson? your style kinda gives me an old rock n' roll kinda feel, i dont know if you are a fan of rush though. |

Sounds great Ben,
may be worth talking with Muris as well (http://www.guitarmasterclass.net/guitar_forum/index.php?showtopic=7431) as it would be particularly nice if you could cover different aspects of Lifeson's style.

Sure other members will come in with others Ben but some albums which I particularly like are 2112; Fly by Night and; Moving Pictures. I think there's probably a 'Best of Rush' album though what it's called I don't know.

QUOTE (Spiderusalem @ Nov 3 2007, 07:38 PM)  I love your classical pieces. Its really awesome sounding stuff. Are they original pieces? How do you write/assemble your work? Thanks except Classical Right Hand Technique Malaguena Lesson they areall original pieces ( those 2 I learn years ago they are classical pieces ) about the rest of them I just sit down and start to improvise and it just come out.. I start with one chord and trying to hear the rest in my head then I'm just looking how to do it on the guitar if you have a couple of chord youcan record them then try to come up with some basic lead to folow them ufter that try to combine them together you will find that is very intresting.. and then you'll see that you get wired looking shapes on the guitar so it realy open your mind to new stuff... hope thats answer your question... if there is somthing more let me know and good luck Ben N -------------------- Check out my video lessons and instructor board!

I'm 23 years old and living in Israel in a small town nothing
much to do here so recently I started to take the guitar much more seriously.. I'm playing since I'm 12 and I took for three years classical lessons.. it helped a lot but the main problem is that I did'nt learn theory I just wanted to play ( stupid me ) I was a kid and I did'nt know what I need so all the work of learning scale and improvise etc... ( playing on the electric ) I learn myself so it took me a lot of time ( there were nobody to show me ... so my progress was very slow...ever since a joined here and seen all the great teachers here doing crazy stuff it rely inspire me and open my mind and now I just know what I need to practice and how to get were I want to be... my goal as a musician is to make a living doing the thing I love the most ( playing off course!! ) so I started doing that I'm teaching guitar lessons I have a few students so it rely pushes me to be in a higher level... the most important thing for me is to always be and feel that I'm progressing and moving foreword the last 4 years I did'nt make any at all... so that basecly it... my life story in short... hehehe Ben N -------------------- Check out my video lessons and instructor board!

Ben, I just wanted to let you know that i love your lessons. You have a very smooth style that relies on very unique compositions and non typical progressions. You really put soul into your playing and it shows in every note. Thanks for your participation at this great site. You are a fantastic addition. Max

I particularly like the Don't Take, Pent. Bending and Int. Solo. Those are the ones i've tackled so far but I plan to dig into the acoustic stuff next. I look forward to your next lesson. Max
