Perfect score! Congrats man!
Just make sure you have these interval "shapes" under fingers too,so you can easily play them on will - which will come handy latter on in improvising! How are you doing with technique exercises? Where are you currently with them (bpm), how do they feel? Do you notice any progress? On Monday new assignment will be posted! Keep up the good work!

Ok its not a problem! That's why I'm making this MTP reasonable on assignments and materials so everyone can make it. Assignments will usually take 2-4 hours a week to do, but if you spend more time - you will progress faster of course
Next week we'll start with some improvising! -------------------- For GMC support please email support (at) guitarmasterclass.net

Weekly assignment 3:
Improvisation - roots and 5ths Lesson to practice: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/misc-less...bass-concept-1/ Goal : To learn the concept of improvising a walking bass line using roots and 5ths as a note choice in a 2 feel type of line. Purpose : Develop improvising skills that will help you create more interesting bass lines. Be able to "jam" to any chord progression. Instructions : First check out the lesson and learn it by heart. Make sure you understand the concept behind this kind of improvisation. You want to use only roots and 5ths as your note choice. Make sure you follow the chord progression so that you connect what is being played with the chords in backing - that is very important. Walking bass line will be 2 feel - that means 2 half notes per bar. Try to get in that kind of groove and keep time well. Once you learn the lesson, start practicing your OWN improvisation over the same backing track. I want you to spend at least 2 hours during the just practicing your own improvising over the backing. When improvising I want you to play the backing and look at the printed chord staff (progression on paper) and by following chords - choose appropriate roots and 5ths for improvising. Requirements : Post updates on your practice daily if possible, describing what have you done. I want you to record in video (or audio only if you can't make it) your OWN roots and 5ths improvisation over the same backing. I will attach the backing track in a day or two, which you will be using to record your own improvisation during the weekend! Deadline to complete: 27th of September Good luck and remember to post your questions and progress!
