Nope didn't think so either. We all know parents don't get this.
I can show you how to be the virtuoso your folks could only dream about, but I first need your help:
* Pm me and I will show you where to start. I am online every day and I will help you out directly!
* Join my mentoring program. I will customize your learning experience in a way you haven't experienced before. We will have regular contact so that you can remain inspired every day and eventually reach a new level.
* Join my next video chat! GMC startpage holds a video chat schedule. We always cover a lot of ground and have fun. Remember that you don't need any previous knowledge, and you can be passive in the chat.
* Jam with me - you will find active collabs here.
* Post a topic on this board, guitar related or not - doesn't matter! You will find that chatting with instructors boosts your motivation to practice.
* You haven't missed my latest video lessons, have you?
* Oh and did you know that to become a killer guitarist you just need to focus on one thing? Everything
else is secondary. Pm me and I will explain.

Kindest regards Carmine This lesson is absolutely perfect! It shall do wonders for your articulation and control (bending, vibrato) and as far as creativity goes, it's a good one for phrasing ideas. Please take a look at it and tell me what parts look the most difficult to you, ok? |

Cosmin I took a big decision right now. I decided that GMC will be my main learning tool. I thought this because of your kindness in following students and because there is a lot of information on the site and with a guide will be easier to sort out what is the best to do. So let's start now. of course i would like to study with you the lesson I am in now, the David Gilmour style. However before that I would like to learn generally rhythm and lead guitar. Lead: shall we start with scales (but not in a boring way)?. Rhythm do not know where to start, I know my chords, i can play barre and so on, as usual is putting things together, and playing "real" music when I start having problem. What do you think? I will try to post my recording (I am going to post a thread on the main forum regarding this) but with a small problem, with my gear I can not record guitar and backing track at the same moment, will it be fine? Last question, I would like to play some tune from my favourite players. i know for copyright reason we can not post this here, but can you help me? can we decided together what to study? regards and THANKS Carmine hey Carmine! let's tackle things in order: 1) Lead playing - I would recommend two approaches and you would choose whichever you'd like or both, why not? a. Start off with Ivan's Pentatonic Workshop b. Start training your ears and hands in the same time by learning positions on the neck and singing them while playing them so that your ears will get accustomed to the sound of those scales and you will be able to improvise because you hear those notes in your head already after some time. 2) All of Bear Rose's beginner rhythm lessons are very good for understanding basic rhythm so, I'd suggest we should start with them. 3) We sure can if you have a Youtube Account, you can post the videos you have uploaded there. I know people who have done this (maharzan with Guthrie's pieces) and it was no problem. You should ask Bogdan, in order not to break any rule though Let me know what you think mate all the best Cosmin |

Cosmin, regarding Pentatonic Workshop part 1, caged. I can play with no problems the 5 boxes at 90 bpm, 1/8 notes. What should aim now? Regards Carmine Hey Carmine, how about 16th notes? What sort of speed can you achieve in their case? And have you figured out any personal patterns so far? My suggestion would be to come up with some patterns you like (your own invention or borrowed from the great guitarists) and manage to run them up and down the neck like this: Horizontally on 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 see how they build up and make you go through each box - let me know if there is anything unclear here Diagonally - pick a 2 stringed pattern and run it through each box like this: play it on 2 strings then remain on the 2nd string but moving to the next box and so on try to land on important chord tones - aim your landing note Check this thread out: Caged System Info it'll help out I think there's an abundance of info here, you may find useful what do you think man?
