Pantera Style Riffs

Original lesson: Pantera Style Riffs by Diego Budicin

Hats of to Diego for yet another awesome lesson! I struggled a bit with the fast triplets in the end and having both groove and accuracy in the first riff after the intro, but I think I am on to something here. Still moving my right hand quite a lot (which has been marked during earlier feedback), but in this particular style, I think it is kinda fitting to get the articulation.

Alternate Picking Workout #1

Original lesson: Alternate Picking Workout #1 by Darius Wave

Without kidding, I`ve had this one in my warmup regime for about two years now. Using it as a sort of benchmark, to ensure I can do 170bpm 98% clean, but I never had the endurance to make it to 180bpm. But today I went for it to have a moment of katharsis, because I`m kinda sick of it :P And sorry for the autofocus failing me.

This ones was definitely out of my comfort zone, but rumours has it that that`s the place you grow!

Suggestions For Songs To Learn Finger Picking And Strumming Patterns

Hi all!

Everytime I set out to write some music for my lyrics, or cover a song without a given strumming/picking pattern, I tend to fall in the exact same type of strumming pattern. Which becomes boring real fast.

So I want to expand my library!

And to expand, one needs to learn! But it is one of those things I don`t immediately appreciate/recognize in a song, thus I`m struggling to come up with decent songs to learn.

Tips/suggestions? Fire at me


(This is one of those things that is a bit awkward to realize you suck at, after playing for almost 15 years...)
