Hi everyone,
My name is Angel and I'm from Bogota, Colombia and I'm glad to be here at GMC
. I'm a computers engineer but I love music. I've been playing guitar for 10 years now. I love metal music and my favorite band is Dream Theater.
I know a little bit of music theory and actually have composed a couple of songs (kind of rock ballads) but I'm not really really happy with the final result... still I know is a good point to start. I'd love to be a great composer, that's my dream, and be able to play different styles of music, not only rock or metal.
I have been struggling for the past months with some advanced techniques like sweep picking and unable to play fast solos, is like my hands don't work together, you know that feeling, right?
sometimes I think I don't have enough patience to learn, or maybe I'm not doing it in the right way (through tutorials in Youtube) and really got frustrated, even though I'm not totally unhappy with my current level.
My gear is a PRS SE Torero which I love a lot, a Digitech RP360XP pedal and a Laney LG20R amplifier.
Any advice will be really welcome. Any questions you have, I'll be glad to answer them.
Thanks a lot!
Angel.
