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 ;)

QUOTE (Adam M @ May 3 2019, 03:36 PM)  We've started with this one and then you suggested me the lessons I linked above but I'll be happy to re-do it since it didn't go well and see how much I've improved since then  yes! It's the best choice so getting back to it from time to time is not a bad idea. These two are also cool to work on feeling: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/The_tasty_etude/ https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Your-First-Metal-Solo/ -------------------- My lessons

The other two lessons seem nice too! I'll keep you updated on my progress!

QUOTE (Adam M @ May 13 2019, 08:10 AM) I should be able to submit my take/-s before the deadline. I'm having a bad time with my thesis, as I have to submit it on Wednesday and I forgot about it since last semester, so I've cut all distractions possible to focus on writing. Hi Adam, thanks for the update! There are still 5 days to go! -------------------- My lessons

Hi Adam! Nice to know that new videos are coming!
About extra practice, I think that the best is to practice the things that keeps you having fun and motivated. If you feel that you need some structure to get the more of this time, you can divide your time in two blocks and work on both Maiden and Sabaton music. During my early practice days I used to have some kind of practice repertoire. In other words I had songs that I've learnt and practice every day to keep on polishing them. During my first years, the songs were by bands like Guns and Roses, Nirvana, Ramones, Kiss, then I could switch to Iron Maiden, and more metal bands, to finally get into Yngwie Malmsteen, Blues Saraceno, Satriani, Vai, and Dream Theater. It's always good to learn to play full songs since this puts you in a real music situation where you have to switch from lead to rhythm as it happens when you are playing with a band. -------------------- My lessons

Hi Adam!
That's a very nice list! I would try to learn all those songs complete to have a repertoire that can keep growing. The easier songs from that list are Nothing else matters (You could learn all distorted parts and then the solo) and Him's song. I would start with these two ones and then complete the others that seem a bit trickier. Congrats about moving forward at the University! I'm sure that you'll finish your thesis successfully!! About Vai's book. I'm a big fan of his work, I surely know the concepts covered but I want to get it. His approach to things is always inspiring. Have you seen these videos? -------------------- My lessons

QUOTE (Adam M @ May 16 2019, 01:15 PM) I realized there is a much better way to play some parts of the Hallowed, that make transitioning easier but I also learned there is still much practice ahead before I can play just the rhythm sections. It's a matter of time but I'm sure we'll make it! I could focus Nothing Else Matters for now and start polishing it once I can play the whole song. Him is a bit harder than it looks but I think I'll go for your lesson at GMC for a start. It sounds great and is simple enough for a beginner! The book arrived and it's really great. It has some things I've known for a while but they are ordered, more detailed and most of all, there's a practical application! I'll watch this video in the evening when I'm home. I can always expect to learn new things when I find one of those Hi Adam! Everything sounds great! I think that focusing on “Nothing else matters” and Him style lesson can be a good idea. I have to re-check that Him song because I thought that it was close to my lesson. About the book, great news!! Enjoy it. I’m sure that you’ll learn a lot from it and that you’ll feel inspired. Keep on the great job here! -------------------- My lessons

QUOTE (Adam @ May 28 2019, 05:21 PM) Here I thought I would be uploading this cover tonight but it turned out the tabs I was using are a bit out of sync with the original. I'll probably try playing it along with the song with my earphones tomorrow to make sure I get it right this time. Ok! It's a very good idea to use your ears to fix possible tabs issues. Go for it! -------------------- My lessons
