Until I am playing a song along with others at volume, I don't like it loud. I feel way less comfortable and free to experiment LOUD. The pick attack and finesse feel different too when it's blowing up in your face. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

The volume difference and the open space - I am talking about 100000 Wats, for instance on a huge open air stage, can cause the above described sensation. The more you do it, the more acquainted with the idea you will become and thus, large volumes will not be a problem anymore You know what you have to play and how to do it, all you have to do is adjust to the volume You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

I had already recorded guitars but never as loud. A New Metal musician was our producer and he really knows how to get powerful tones from a Mesa Boggie. At first I wasn't comfortable with the sound, and also it was the first time that I was playing a Gibson Les Paul with 011 strings. Everything was new an I had to get used to it.

So often we are hitting the string as hard as we can, and get really heavy handed with picking. playing a loud amp allows you to be more sensitive with your picking, using your volume knob as a tool etc You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Hell man, the Mesa is so dry if you are not used to it I had the very same impression when I first tried one! You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.
