Hi RocknRoll Ninja!! Welcome to your Gab's Army thread!!
Could you please tell me a bit about you, your musical tastes, influences, strengths and weaknesses? I would need some videos of you playing rhythm and solo guitar, so please post your best material here. If you have some music or ideas of your own, also post them here. Also let me know how you think that I can help you and what are your expectations for our job. You can check the other Army's thread to discover the different modalities of this project. The principles of our Army are: + Improve your technique + Make music and solos + Have fun + Destroy the enemy (hahaha not really just kidding... ) -------------------- My lessons

Hi mate! Thanks for your nice introduction! As I said in another thread, we have really close musical tastes so we definitely must work together! I remember myself playing over Ramones Mondo Bizarro & Mania for lots of hours every day when I was starting to play guitar.
Some questions: 1. You started working on the lesson 1 from the beginner's corner. How do you feel it? Is it too difficult? what things are giving you problems? 2. Do you have a webcam? Which one? 3. Do you have a soundcard? It in on-board or external? -------------------- My lessons

1. Yeah i started to work on that one.I can play it slow im working on the changes.Its literally gets easier every try.I need to work on to speed it up altough i would really love to practice more but i dont wanna miss a day or two because of blisters on my fingertips so i have to stop sometimes even when i dont want to.but im totally gonna wake up earlier tomorrow just to practice 2. I use and old thinkpad so it doesnt have a webcam but i can buy one next motnh without problem.The only thing is I cant play loud only through headphone because of my neighbours but i happy to buy something i can record with quietly if its possible. If its okay i would like to work on some basic things until i can get something to record with.If u can show me some easy lessons i should work on after this one. thanks, Suzi yes! there is no problem. Take your time until you feel comfortable to share something with me! I don't know what a thinkpad is... do you use it instead of a computer for internet? and another question, what amp do you use? Sorry for all these questions! It is for being able to guide you. -------------------- My lessons

Hey Gab, I installed everything now im waiting for my mini jack adapter hopefully arrive soon Till then I have a little problem i can do the chord changes now but its doesnt sound to "fluid" if u know what imean. thanks, Suzi Well done! The adapter was something necessary to connect your guitar. I understand what you mean about chord changes, this is the most difficult part of playing chord progressions and song when we are beginning. The is not a big secret, practice is the key but let me share my method. I find much more effective to work with not too many chords, I start with two chords. Practice changing your finger positions from one chord to the second one and then get back to the first chord. Pay attention to the movement that each finger must do, where each find will go. Also, you always have to try to keep your fingers the closer to the fret board than you can (this is another important tip to be able to change chords fluently). Practice in this way and let me know how it goes. Be patient. -------------------- My lessons
