Hi Victor! From what I can see, this seems to be good. It would be nice to see you playing this at your comfortable tempo to compare and detect any possible difference.

Yes, that part is very fast and similar to this like you said:
Yngwie Malmsteen - Rising Force https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wT0XpJ4Yye8...el=DavidEscobar I am still trying to find out which one is faster. -------------------- |

Playing at my comfortable speed doesn't resemble of the song in any way. The I speed the Video for about 2x time, and now it's starting to sound as the song. -------------------- |

So now I have the solo tabbed completly, I will keep it as an exercise tool at lower speeds.
Section C, is above my level, so I can hardly play it as 50% speed. But now I will share Hand Synch by Ben Higgins at 70 BPM, almost full speed (75BPM is full speed). The audio sounds a little strage in the Video so that's why I am attaching an two mp3 files. One file with me playing on the backing track and one file with guitar only so you can notice my playing in detail.

Yes, I watched the video, but it seems like there is a little issue with the video image, sometimes it stay still.

Ok, I checked and it seems that the parts where I show the licks are working. By the way, I'll record a new one later if you need it.

Yes, that's what you need to do. Start slowly, to get used to the movement and hand position. Isolate your right hand as I did in the video.
This approach to 2 strings sweep is not common, the most common is the one used in Preludio, which is the same that Malmsteen plays in many songs. -------------------- My lessons

This solo I think it has a similar approach.
Rhapsody - Tempesta Di Fuoco https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0AYfgxuLXPo Solo starts at 2:15, but the part with the similar approach is at 2:26. I attached a screenshot of the tab of that part. You can find the entire Guitar Pro File on ultimate-guitar, this tab is not made by me.

Yes! Again the most common approach in neoclassical metal (and my favorite).

I will practice pressing the frets with less force. I think I will make a video where I press frets with: - Very Low Pressure - Low Pressure - Medium Pressure And find out which one is the best This is an exercise to minimize pressure. You don't need to find the best from these 3, you need to try to do the less effort possible when fretting the frets. And anyway I couldn't believe that I could play at 100BPM, sextuplets, so I had to make a video. This means the same speed as playing 150 BPM quarter notes, which is way above my maximum speed. (If my calculation is correct) Which for me is very fast. As far as I know my max speed is around 110-120BPM quarter notes, which is around 75-80BPM sextuplets. Awesome! This explains the tension when playing the exercise. Congrats!! -------------------- My lessons

Yes, I am working on pressing the frets lightly and I feel there is some room to press them lightly.
So, I created a few exercises and I have some near goals I am working on. Hand Synch I So I created 4 exercises the ones you see in the screenshot, this are the fast parts in the lesson. I am playing them slowly and then increasing the speed even beyond the speed requirement, and I try to stay as relaxed as I can. Then after I practice those exercises in isolation, I play the full lesson at slower and faster tempos. Then I go to practice: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Hand-Synch-II/ Hand Synch II Most of this lesson is at my current level speed, except the last measures which are sextuplets, are way above my level. This is a goal I would like to achieve. (actually this goal could take a while) And this is my practice routine. This post has been edited by Victor Simion: May 17 2021, 09:23 PM
