Here is where the magic happens: the REC board turns bedroom guitarists into real pros. Remember - it doesn't matter if you fail or pass, as long as you keep posting REC takes you will progress.
The entries will be graded by a number of instructors. After grading, members will be accredited with the appropriate points if they pass, and adjustments will be made to their REC level.
Passing grade is 6 or higher.

Original lesson: Ben's Vibrato Odyssey 5 by Ben Higgins
I'd like to give a special thanks to Mr. Ben Higgins for creating this lesson and to Cosmin for opening my eyes to how bad my vibrato really was (and all this time I thought I had the world's best vibrato heheheh). I lost the callous on my middle finger and it hasn't calloused over yet so my finger is a bit under the weather after this one and I shall retire him for the day (unless someone cuts me off on the highway). Thanks! |

Hi Chris, good to see you working on this technique. We tend to let it for later but then, we realize that this technique is one of the most important because of how better can make a solo.
Both Ben and Cosmin talked about the important things to have in mind in order to improve this one. You have to be careful with pitches, and also with the rhythm when you play the faster vibrato since it must have some relation with the backing's groove to fir good. I think that the best to work on both things is to dedicate some time to play this one over the original lesson and then some time just with the backing, record yourself and check the improvements. IT's easier to analyze our playing when we are not playing, so that's why recording is very important. Keep on the hard work! -------------------- My lessons
