Come to my vid chat lessons! They are great fun. 2.) take on one of the instructors or ALL as "mentors" just by sending each one a personal message here on gmc 3.)DON"T QUIT PLAYING: That one thing stops people from getting better more than anything. There is no one shining path other than persistence. Of course one wants to get max results from time spent, but guitar is a life long learning process so you may need 5 or 10 years to work out your "learning path" so don't over stress on the methods of learning as much as trying to play a bit each day and keep it fun so you don't put it down Todd QUOTE (Ravindran @ Jan 29 2016, 10:52 PM) Hi Forum !

The one thing that matters - above everything else - is to structure your practicing in a way that's fun for you. Then, if you add variation to your practicing on a regular basis - to remain inspired - you have the foundation of a long-term and time efficient routine.

I love melodic and expressive guitar, and want to learn the ropes on how to compose, as well as play, melodic solos/ songs. I dream of being a composer cum performer. My guitar Heroes are David Gilmour, Santana, Satriani and Eric Clapton. I would like to imbibe from their playing styles and evolve something to call my own. Presently, I am able to spare about 2-3 hours of time daily, dedicated to guitar practice. Possibly the time slot available is inadequate but I intend to increase it after a while. I need a lot of help with my Techniques, Timing and Speed. I am looking for an effective practice schedule to get optimal benefit. Will be glad to receive all the help I can get on how to go about. I shall join the mentor-ship program as suggested by Phil, I was wondering how to figure out the Instructors who are presently Mentoring in the area of my goals. I request your guidance in designing a plan Gabriel. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!
