Hello Lcsdds (I'll call you bob, that's shorter )
I saw in Smells' post that I'm in your group, and that's good news I'm a "friend" of Jesse (MSN friend ) So I followed your thread a bit, seemed very neat! A bit about myself: My name is Kaz, and I'm 15 and a bit. I have played many years, but not ver efficient. I got a spanish acoustic 3/4 when I was about 8, my dad learned me some chords and I played very few times a month. Oktober 2007 I bought an electric guitar, and I started to play some serious guitar. If people ask me how long I've beeen playing, I say a bit over a year, or a bit shorter then one and a half year. I know play every day, but not hours a day. My motto is, have fun with your guitar, then you'll be motivated. This is also how I practice, no schedule, just jammin! It might not be very efficient, but with a schedule I have no fun at all, and I loose motivation. I know all the ins and outs about GMC, I've been around for quite a while, and I'm almost part of the wallpaper here My skills: Solo = beginner intermediate. I play lessons here that are level 4 and 5. I can do legato (weird.. I don't really practice that, but i can pulll it of..), AP, little sweeping and tapping, but I'm not very much into tapping. My vibrato could use some help Chords= not sure how to expres this. I can play all normal chords. All minor and major without peaking, and also some 7th chords, but others I have to look how to play them (I don't find this a big problem). I can play barre chords, no problemo. I think I can actualy say my chord skills are quite ok Riffing: It's not like I riff and awful lot, but I think I'm ok with it. I can play metal rhythms no big deal. fingerpicking = I'd like to work on this. Not full time, but a bit more then i do now. I can play the intro of under bridge, but not on speed. I think fingerpicking (especially acoustic) can be really cool theory = I know the minor pentatonic (and with relative minor, I can do the major). So minor and major are all fine. I don't remember the exact places of all the root notes, but I've known the penta for over a year now, and I make all my solos in it, so atm I can fly through the boxes quite well. Now comes the time where I miss some extra notes, so I started on the blues scale. I know the blue notes int he first box, and I use them a lot, but I am/was to lazy to learn where the blue notes are in the other boxes. I also know how to play box 1 and 2 from the major scale. ATM I'm very much into Satriani. I can play Always With Me, Always with You, until the hard legato parts start, and I'm learning the intro from if I could fly, but that's not gonna be a problem. I'm always in need of songs to learn, I just don't know enough of them! As for styles, I love blues and rock. I'm into melodic solos, and I really don't like senseless shredding lesson I dig are (for instance) Mark Knopler finger picked solo (muris), In the style of Steve Lukather (muris again) and Gab's Rock lessons. There are more lessons I love, these just came up I hope this helps and for movies, my YT link is HERE. I also have a singing video online, just PM me if you want a link to that one. I use a POD GX for recording (toneport device) with POD farm. I can record MP3 quite quickly, but I don't like shooting videos Takes a lot of time for me. I don't have a webcam, so I need to setup camera, film, sync, produce etc. etc. BTW, I'm fine with learning theory, but I think that gives you a new task, kicking me under the but, because (not sure why) I suck with learning theory, I just don't give a lot about it. But I use penta aalwaays so i know it's important This post has been edited by kaznie_NL: Feb 24 2009, 03:43 PM |
