BTW it's just my opinion, and if members want slower BTs it's not a problem, hehe, it's just less than a minute You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

It's good to help the beginning guitarplayers, because already a lot of this site is a bit on the advanced side. I think an example of a great BT collection would be something like this: 120BPM (full speed) 120BPM looped 100BPM maybe 80BPM 50BPM The 80 BPM is maybe, because I don't know if that would be used a lot. Hope I helped a bit. Good idea Kris! You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

Jun 12 2008, 04:25 AM	GMC:er Posts: 269 Joined: 8-August 07 From: Austin / San Antonio , Texas	Kris, is there anyway we could get the instructors to play along with their backing tracks at each speed? ie. Gabriel's Iron Maiden 1 backing @ 114bpm. This helps us keep the lesson in correct timing even when playing at a reduced speed. Some of the odd timings, and pauses make it difficult to practice very slowly. Thanks You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

Also - some instructors have already started "upgrading" old lessons - we will get back with more news about that!

Thanks Doing this sure would be cool, but also very time consuming - I can't quite see that it is motivated when there is a guitarpro tab which allows you to change the bpms to your heart's desire.

It also good be nice to have those sections with a loop that repeats itself after 2 seconds so we don't have to click on the video screen over and over.
