Enjoy the change from vibrato. It's pure technique this time around !! Deadline is Friday 8th June You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

I did try it then as well as I have done similar exercises/lessons before. The first one was some 10 years ago when I watched the Petrucci DVD. It didn't feel that difficult with that experience but had to practice quite a bit in this one. Here is what I have. As always stamina is a problem, concentration too.

So if a take from a complete stranger is welcome, I would like to post my first try on this at 120 bpm Cheers, Mert You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

For example for this one, do we get to post our improvement in speed so Ben can give us feedback?

For example for this one, do we get to post our improvement in speed so Ben can give us feedback? Also I hope Master Ben is not mad at me for posting my take here without his permission since I am not a member of the Temple yet Normally I give the guys Tasks of GMC lessons so we can use that as an indicator of improvement but sometimes I'll give them a lick to learn. This time, there's no set bpm so it's just an upload of the lick at any tempo that suits. So, it's an easy going Task this week Anyone's welcome to post Bushido Tasks, the door to The Temple is always open, no permission needed !

I am a new guy to this Temple as well I had been practicing on a similar lick like this recently. So, starting at 130bpm... which is slightly faster than "comfort zone" for me. I'll practice more on this Bushido task and post the progress at the end of the week You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

The 2nd pattern doesn't exactly mirror the first one.. you have to use your pinky to play the 16th fret on the B. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Can feel a deep burn after the second pattern and can barely hold on at the end! Killer excersise. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.
