Welcome to SHRED BOOTCAMP! I'll be your Drill Instructor! And I do mean DRILL! As in a large power tool used in slasher films and Paul Gilbert concerts. Here is were you EARN THE LIVING DEATH out of your fingers and break through any speed bumps/barriers to become a MASTER CHIEF of Shred!
MISSON #1 THE MISSION 1.)Your mission is to go all the way back to the very start. The base of the mountain. LESSON 1. http://bitly.com/gmclesson1 Which you will play SLOWWWWWWLLY, very SLOWWWLLLLYYYY until you master it at a crawl (As You'll Do With Each Mission, and focus on left hand FORM! Make it SUPER PERFECT!). Speed it up bit by bit until you feel your ready to take it to WAR (Any speed, it's up to you) Shoot a video of you playing the bit along with a METRONOME or DRUM click in the background so that I can hear if your on beat or not, and embed it as a post it as a reply to this post. I'll then offer a constructive and brutally honest critique. THE AFTERMATH Upon nailing the crap out of lesson one, and playing it a clean as a freshly waxed floor, you will be given your first insignia of Rank in BOOTCAMP! After that proceed to MISSION #2. Here is a link to all of the missions. All 400+ of them. Our highest ranking Soldier is currently at LEVEL 30. http://bit.ly/twtgmc Here is the link to your own PRIVATE HOUSE OF PAIN!...Er I mean.. SHRED! http://bit.ly/phil66sbootcamp Practice! Todd This post has been edited by Todd Simpson: Jun 4 2016, 06:41 PM |

BC9 Take 1. Had to learn a new skill Sarge, multiple tempos in one Reaper track
Round 1 320bpm, Round 2 200 bpm 1/4 notes (crotchets). I don't know the key because it looks like C major or A minor on teh staff as there are no sharps or flats but there are accidentals and i don't know if that changes the key sig. https://youtu.be/XKqosBMots4 -------------------- SEE MY GMC CERTIFICATE “Success is not obtained overnight. It comes in instalments; you get a little bit today, a little bit tomorrow until the whole package is given out. The day you procrastinate, you lose that day's success.” Israelmore Ayivor |

Well Fought Soldier! I can tell you have hanging on for dear life in the fast one at the start so there is some drift but that's fine as it's good to see what happens when you push a bit. The second on is clean and spot on so I'll use that take for the Debrief.
As this is a "drill" and moves chromatically up the neck, I'd originally left the key just in concert tone of C as it's not really in any particular key since it's just a symmetrical shape that repeats on two strings that gets moved around the neck. Let's Debrief!!! MEDALS OF HONOR SNIPER The more precise one's picking is, the better one's playing is overall. You have sniper precise picking here which is great to see and what I'm looking for on this mission![/size] CONSISTENCY The second thing I want to see on this Mission is consistency. After all, it's the same shape on two strings played around the neck. If one does not play in a consistent manner, it will stick out like a sore thumb. No worries here. Very consistent. MUTE TO KILL The last thing I want to see if a good mute. Muting is key to playing imho. Without a good mute, nothing works well. You are already off to a good start of planting your palm on the bridge and keeping it there. Nice!! You've got this one well in hand Soldier. You are ready to move on! You just.. LEVELED UP!!! Here is an updated Guitar Pro and Pic just in case for reference. I'm going to ask FRAN to replace the bits in the existing lesson with these. 9fix.gp5 ( 1.86K ) Number of downloads: 198 BC9 Take 1.
