GMC Forum _ REC _ Skennington-harmonic Minor For Beginners

Posted by: skennington Mar 21 2009, 05:52 PM

Here is an old take I did of Muris' Harmonic Minor for Beginners Lesson. Recorded this one for the MTP so forgive me for the title.. Few timing issues with the tapping section but I must say after watching this again, the mtp has helped my picking technique a ton!

Anyhoo, here's the original by Muris...

I liked this one. Some notes were not in time and you made a couple of mistakes.

Its good to hear that you already know where your mistakes are. That way you can work and correct them for next time

The timing was quite good at the start, but lost it a bit in the 2nd half.
I noticed your picking hand is very stiff, and you do alot of downstrokes.
Try to get some more AP in there and loosen the hand up. I think you would benefit greatly from that.

very good! Couple of notes didn't came out, otherwise there would be some 5s in there for sure. I suggest that you spend some time practicing those minor mistakes. It requers a small amount or work, but it means a lot in the overall impression.

Some timing mistakes, work that a little
and it would be just fine!
