Cherokee's Road To Perfection, for Gab's Army |
HEY MAN, I really need your help...
...the thing is, I need you to start progressing faster then ever, but to achieve that I need your help:
* Don't know where to start? Just pm me and we will sort it out directly, I am online every day.
* Join My Army. Sounds aggressive? It is! We can study anything from the most fearsome picking techniques to bombastic songwriting. A medal of honor awaits the brave. Seriously, this is an opportunity for you to get a personalised learning experience...what are you waiting for?!
* 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?
* Finally I want to tell you a secret. Nah I changed my mind - pm me instead ;)

Hi Cherokee!! This is your thread for Gab's Army. Here I will help you with your guitar playing, recommending lessons, exercises, giving explanations & feedback. The idea is to use this thread to improve your playing and also to keep you motivated so we can talk about music, post bands, songs, speeches and whatever can inspire us.
What are you working right now? Do you have any videos of you playing to post here? -------------------- My lessons

Hi mate! yeah! There are many good power metal lessons here. When you say "picking", do you refer to Alternate Picking? Are you having problems with riffs or solos?
Have you checked my Intensive Technique Course? https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/guitar_fo...t=0&start=0 Also I was wondering how your routine is... do you play/practice every day? What do you play? -------------------- My lessons

QUOTE Have you checked my Intensive Technique Course? https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/guitar_fo...t=0&start=0 No. Looks interesting. Will have a look at this next time playing. QUOTE Also I was wondering how your routine is... do you play/practice every day? What do you play? Quite a lot to do at work now so I can't practice every day but lets say: 2 hours/day 5 days/week sometimes more. |

Hi mate, thanks for the info. We can build a routine for those days that you can practice. 2 hours sounds like a good amount of time. I would use the first hour for technique exercises (ITC + GMC lessons) and the second time for more musical and creative stuff.
HOUR 1: Warming Up Alternate Picking Legato Vibrato + Bending HOUR 2: Rhythm Stuff (GMC lessons) Theory Jamming & Composing What do you think? -------------------- My lessons

Have you seen something cool? Theory (20 minutes) Learn new concepts every day from this liste: Theory Board Jamming & Composing (20 minutes) Jamming over backing tracks. Rercording ideas. I have had a look at this now. Picking Arpeggios warm up is really nice sounding. A bit tricky to reach some of the chords but that's what practice are for... Hour one looks perfect, some nice lessons in there. Hour two: This one is very cool: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Finnis...-III-Nightwish/ Another one I like is this, I have practiced on this recently: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/German...Metal-VI-Edguy/ I also love this one, but maybe a little to fast for me now. Have tried it at lower bpm 130 or so: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/power_metal_rhythm/ Nice to have a more structured training routine. Really looking forward to this! |
