Vinnie Moore's Race With Destiny took me 20 days to play with no mistake. I think that was the longest one but the song is nearly 7 min.

I was preparing it for Guitar Hero competition. Probably spent 3-4 hours a day. It took 3-4 days just to memorize all the parts then I was polishing bit by bit

QUOTE (DenisN @ Sep 8 2009, 08:55 PM)  Hi Emir, I have the same problem when it comes to learning things from the beginning to the end.I guess I start something but get discouraged after some time/weeks because I see I can't play it at original speed. Should I learn the whole thing (like your VM lesson) and let the speed come or take some easier lessons which I can bring fast enough to speed (20 say  ) I also try to push myself immediately with the metronome thinking that if play it the whole time at lower speed it'll stay that way.If you give up then you lost the battle completely  Take 8 bars, play until you memorize and then start polishing it in tempo where you feel comfortable. Don't need to play up to speed imediately. After that learn another 8 and so on... It does take time bit it does pay off as well

It took me four months to first play Sultans of swing fully up to speed.
 I did not practice for long time in every session but I did practice the song every day. and yes. I had to do special metronome practice with the hardest sections (most of them in second solo). Since it was only a few bars which I had problem it makes more sense to practice them a lot of times then the whole song a few times. In the end it was very rewarding, because I got the sensation that I can play anything if want to go for it.
