HERE IS A DIRECT LINK TO YOUR BOOTCAMP! http://bitly.com/jtaylorsbootcamp
Welcome to SHRED BOOTCAMP! I'll be your Drill Instructor! And I do mean DRILL! As in a large power tool used in slasher films and Paul Gilbert concerts. Here is were you EARN THE LIVING DEATH out of your fingers and break through any speed bumps/barriers to become a MASTER CHIEF of Shred! MISSON #1 THE MISSION 1.)Your mission is to go all the way back to the very start. The base of the mountain. LESSON 1. http://bitly.com/gmclesson1 Which you will play SLOWWWWWWLLY, very SLOWWWLLLLYYYY until you master it at a crawl (As You'll Do With Each Mission, and focus on left hand FORM! Make it SUPER PERFECT!). Speed it up bit by bit until you feel your ready to take it to WAR (Any speed, it's up to you) Shoot a video and post it as a reply to this post. I'll then offer a constructive and brutally honest critique. THE AFTERMATH Upon nailing the crap out of lesson one at a speed you didn't think possible, and playing it a clean as a freshly waxed floor, you will be given your first insignia of Rank in BOOTCAMP! Practice! Todd |

Got it! To put it lightly, I suck at palm muting. I have been playing around with guitars since 1988 and I have learned plenty of wrong ways. I'm going to have to go back to square one here. Seeking permission to deviate from standard operating procedure and start getting some basics down, starting with this: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/rhythm-gu...r2-palm-muting/ unless there is another lesson you have in mind.
I was just playing the intro to "Wasted Years". It sounded good, but I was having to brace my third finger the whole time ! The problem I am having with palm muting is my hand tend to hit the volume knob a lot...but that's just another chance to improvise, adapt, and overcome! -------------------- |

Focusing on the FUNDAMENTALS is ALWAYS a great plan Soldier! Good fighting instincts there! As you go shoot little short close up vids of your right hand on the bridge so I can what's going on. I"m sure we can work through the glitches and get you over the hump!!
