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.

Hey again!
This is your very personal thread! We'll use it to communicate and work together on your development as a guitarist and musician. For starters, how about learning and recording these lessons? We'll discuss over each recording and see how it goes Please use the provided backing tracks - let me know if you have difficulties in finding it https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Beginn...-Drop-D-Tuning/ https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Beginn...29-Palm-Muting/ https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Beginn...r-23-Pull-Offs/ https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Beginn...r-22-Hammer-On/ These should build a strong base for more complex things to come!

Hi,Cosmin. I tried to improve. I recorded it before my work. Today I will post others. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/3xxqri6ae3hv5q7/gXUp9ztkhT Paul Tried and succeeded! Good going mate - on BC29 you are very tight and the tone is a lot better. What I'd do to improve this take would be to mute a bit less - by that I mean making the muted chords sound like you do it around 0:31. For instance, the muting is a bit exaggerated in the beginning. On BC27 - the same problem with the muting, it's a bit exaggerated, otherwise the tone and playing are better indeed. What do you think should we add another new lesson? And, are there any particular questions you might have so far? Cosmin |

Hi,Cosmin.
Yes, I like Breaking Benjamin. This is the band which I like to hear every song. I like many others but Breaking Benjamin is different for me. I upload the archive again. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/3xxqri6ae3hv5q7/gXUp9ztkhT Thank you This post has been edited by pavelducati: May 16 2013, 12:04 PM -------------------- Best wishes,

The palm muting in BC 29 is exactly what it's supposed to be, but take care - the guitar is louder than the drums and you had timing issues when you recorded - in the beginning for instance, you were rushing. BC 22 - some notes sound out of pitch - example: 0:23 - were you pushing the string too hard against the fretboard? After 0:26 onward, you are a bit too rigid - try to practice this one at a slower speed until you can master it BC 23 - the transition at 0:32 needs slow practice until you can play it correctly. BC 27 - the palm muting is still a bit too rigid here - try to smooth it out a bit - as you did in BC 29 and play this piece with more flow. As you see, we are mainly dealing with details here, but these make the difference in all the situations Pay attention to them and it's gonna be ok, deal? Let's see how you fare with the Breakin Benjamin lesson too Cosmin |

Hi,Cosmin.
I recorded my Benjamin lesson . https://www.dropbox.com/sh/3ot8gwwbpses8jb/K-wNG_0npb This is a very raw performance. It is was my first experience to play and record. It is a new skill for me but it is so amazing. Time will make my performance better. I want it. And I constantly thank you for opening a new world for me.

Good evening, Cosmin.
I just have spoken with my friend Chris in England. He said the weather was rainy and he was a little melancholy. I said that music could change the weather inside. I think it is a mathematic for soul.(I do not remember who said that but I agree) Well,I tried to take into account your remarks about the tracks and recorded new tracks. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/22oymaihyzek2lz/byw-sUS2IM This post has been edited by pavelducati: May 20 2013, 06:23 PM -------------------- Best wishes,
