Nightwish Style, Lesson By Ben Higgins |

Here is where the magic happens: the REC board turns bedroom guitarists into real pros. Remember - it doesn't matter if you fail or pass, as long as you keep posting REC takes you will progress.
The entries will be graded by a number of instructors. After grading, members will be accredited with the appropriate points if they pass, and adjustments will be made to their REC level.
Passing grade is 6 or higher.

Hi Carlos!
It's awesome to see all the hard work that you are doing at GMC. Congrats friend!! You have a good base as guitarist, so there are many positive things happening in this video. I'll mark those things that need attention which can be elements from your overall playing, or maybe just from this take. - Pitch Issues: I notice that there are pitch issues when playing the riff, but also when playing the double stop licks, and the bend. I'm not completely sure if this is related to your playing or guitar but please check it out and let me know at the mentoring program. - Main riff: The first part (on low open E string and first fret) is not sounding good. The "trill" is not clear, and has pitch issues. This riff must sound totally tight and it's industrial metal influence requires a digital/computer style performane (VERY precise). - Vibrato: Your vibrato technique is weak in most of the solo section. You have to make your finger 1 stronger, and help the others when doing vibrato with the "not being used fingers". Check the original lesson at 00:40 to see what I mean. - Bending: As I've said previously, that bend is not reaching the pitch perfectly. - Tapping: This is an obvious comment, but there is a missed note when playing the tapping lick. Ok friend, it's a 6 for me. Keep on the hard work! -------------------- My lessons
