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.

here my take of the Beginner Corner 12 lesson. I give you the link even if I know that there I have to improve it: you can't tell me how. Apologie for the sound: I could not record the backing track but I am working on it and in a few weeks should be able to record it as well. http://youtu.be/wNS8ZbhDS7g I made few mistakes but I keep my hand moving. By the way looking at the video I saw that I tend to use more elbow than wrist, is it fine? To the best of my knowledge the motion should come by the wrist. Also please consider that a) I am not an acoustic strummer (but I think this is vital to learn rhythm) and that is 10 pm in a small flat with the family sleeping: not the best place to practice! Hope to get few insight from you. Thanks in advance and kindest regards Carmine |

hey carmine,
the take is shaping up nicely and of coourse, more practice can only provide better results, especially if you will focus on using your wrist when strumming your flow will increase, as well as your stamina plus, the ryhtmic possibilities will be more varied can you try one more take, focusing on your wrist strumming?

Thanks so much for your reply.
So was I right? The most of the movement should come from wrist? Once again thanks. will practice and will post the video by the week end. Carmine |

Hi Carmine! The right hand looks relaxed and able to work very well
There are improvements which can be done to your flow, but this mainly comes from playing a lot and paying attention to your coordination between the right and left hand. I would suggest going through all of Bear's rhythm lessons, as they are very very good for you at this stage! I think you can pick another, record it and send it over so I can look/ listen to it do we have a deal? Cosmin Cosmin as for your suggestion here another take. Still not able to record the backing track, sorry http://youtu.be/xeOPmPURCSE Have a great week end, Carmine |

Cosmin I think next lesson should be this: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Beginn...-Slash-Chords/# Right? Thanks Carmine Hey Carmine! This one is very good, so I think you should go for it! Cosmin Cosmin, regarding the Gilmour lesson. There is a part of the lesson played very very high on the neck, even the 22th fret. It seem there is no sustain there, let alone the very narrow frets. Any suggestion on how to play up there? Thanks in advance Carmine Carmine, do you think you can you record yourself while playing that part? I am curious to see how you tackled it so I can offer some advice I think that the guitar may have less sustain if you don't fret it hard enough with your left hand, but let's see the vid Cosmin |

the Bear Rose lesson 16 is getting me a bit stressed. Does it happens that you can not quite play a lesson? I am still struggling, among other things, on the chords on bars 24 and 25. Anyway I recorded a take at slower tempo: http://youtu.be/fswTTaa7ubE Not proud of it, but at least something. Thanks in advance Carmine Cosmin Carmine, do you think you can you record yourself while playing that part? I am curious to see how you tackled it so I can offer some advice I think that the guitar may have less sustain if you don't fret it hard enough with your left hand, but let's see the vid Cosmin Cosmin, as for your request, short video of the "choked" sound http://youtu.be/02zBKksdUMY Regards Carmine |

I have been quite busy to practice the lessons to be posted in the REC. It was really worth doing it. Now we know much better on what to concentrate. I think tempo is major issue together with more fluidity in changing chords. I was thinking to follow this lesson to tackle both: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Easy-AC-DC/ but any other you would suggest will be fine. What i would like to do with you, first of all, is analysing the backing track, how to "listen" to it, getting the feel and/or reading the tab while listening the track. This is my idea but you have more knowledge and you are my mentor, so please let me know what is the best thing to do. Fell free to change the lesson, if you think there is something better. keep in mind that I will continue studying the old ones. Thanks and have a great day carmine |
