Very motivating. She is an excellent guitarist. And there is always somebody better then you, no matter what age. Technical difficulties is a very difficult song to play. And she has the chops. I hope to hear the whole song from her because the string skip Paul does later in the song is really!!!! hard. She has technique and I see a lot of people who have very good technique. If I was her I would go to college and learn music theory so she can be a well rounded guitarist.
What is sad about this for me is I was working on this song and I was developing Dystonia. Not from learning the song ,but from poor technique. I have not worked on it since switching to playing left hand guitar because my picking is not up to snuff yet.
Do not let this get you down in playing. It should motivate you tp practice more. She has put in her hours and it shows, now put in yours. Remember Steve Vai said he was not a natural talented guitarist so he had to put in more hours than most people. Look where he is now. The face of Ibanez guitar.

You can do it. If you want the tabs for this song let me know and I will email them to you. When learning this song analyse it as well. Those fast scale runs are fragments from the modes. Perfect practice will get you where you want to be in a short time. If you are a intermediate player, you should be able to learn the song very fast, because if you can pick fast and you have your modes down you are 3/4 of the way learning this song. One of my old guitar istructors will teach you this song bit by bit until you have the whole song down.

I'm trying to look at it in a motivating way, If she can do it so can I with enough practice.
