I have decreased my practice time a bit lately, but I still get roughly an hour most days. I basically learn songs I like, and I try not to forget them, which eats time when the number of songs grows and grows.

I've been working on some new slap bass techniques. I try to do short sessions on daily basis.
Generally such session is enough to me as I try to have it as focused as possible. -------------------- For GMC support please email support (at) guitarmasterclass.net

I haven't any practice routine.. But I try to play the guitar at least an hour per day. I just take the guitar and play all the stuff I know, if I think that I learned the last thing perfectly, I try to learn something more, then I find a jam track on youtube and improvise around it. I'm thinking about making a practice schedule with exact routine when my school exams will be finished.

Practice time tends to vary for me. On a busy week I may practice for only 30 minutes or so a day if I'm lucky. (Hate weeks like that!) If I have an easy weak I tend to like to get in about 1 1/2 hours of practice in the morning. This is when I practice things like songs I may be working on and developing my technique. Lately I have been using this time to also polish my technique and develop good legato, which is a week spot for me. I practice again in the evening, but its much more relaxed, and generally I use this time to go over my scales. Lately however, I have been using that time in the evening to learn some of the great accoustic pieces on GMC.

At the moment, I'm trying to get specific results from my playing which is to be able to alternate pick faster without force or tensing up.. and also to be able to play faster downstrokes as my band is playing Master Of Puppets and I have to be able to play it by July 9th !

I don't really have a practice routine. That's my biggest problem. I just grab my guitar and play around 2 hours a day. First i play the lessons and some songs i know then i try to improve things i'm not good at.
