Kirkhamster's Thread, 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 Kirk!
Welcome to your thread for Gab's Army. Here I will guide you with your guitar practice, creating routines, practice plans, giving feedback of your playing always based on your guitar goals and musical tastes. Before we start I would like to know a bit more about you. - How many time have you been playing guitar? - Favorite guitarists, bands and musicians. - What are your guitar goals? - How would you like to you see yourself in 5 years (related to music and guitar)? - How many time can you play guitar each day? - Do you have playing live experience? - Which are your strong and weak points with guitar? - What do you know about music theory? - Can you record videos of you playing? - Share here audios and videos that reflect your current playing.

Ok Kirk, as you shared a video via PM, I'm ready to suggest your first routine.
Routine #1 Guitar Gym #1 (20 minutes) Link HERE Alternate Picking Workout 3 (20 minutes): https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Altern...king-workout-3/ Besides this work, you can dedicate the remaining time to keep on working on Metallica's song and some random jamming or composing. -------------------- My lessons

Thank you Gabriel- can't wait to begin... 2 questions: Just want to confirm as you say to do 20 minutes on GG #1 in our thread, however each block which has 2 separate exercises, on the linked thread you say to do 10 minutes total. So for Block #1, do I do 5 min and 5 min or 10 min and 10 min for each exercise in Block #1? Question #2- Does GMC have a good digital metronome you recommend, and if not, do you recommend digital metronomes to use in general? KH |

Hi Kirk, the ideal for Guitar Gym is 30 minutes, but as you've said that you only have 45 minutes for practice we can decrease the time to 20. This means that you have to administrate your time different. You can work on 1 exercise of each block for 5/7 minutes, and alternate each day.
About metronome, every lesson has a metronome included...

Hi mate, about metronome, yes, I count 1, 2, 3, 4 and start at beat 1 with the exercise. In order to be sure that you are practicing this correctly it would be good to hear your playing along with a metronome. Please record yourself and share it here, or at the Guitar Gym thread.
I took the block 3 from a GMC lesson so I recommend you to check the slow videos to see exactly how Ben Higgins plays the exercises. This is the link: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Nuno-B...-Style-Soloing/ Check it out and let me know if you need more help. -------------------- My lessons
