When she will get the feeling of accomplishment, she will want more Cheers Cosmin....Good advice...that's why your'e a great guitar instructor!

Have you managed to find out? Ive really only tried standard tuning but Im starting to think it might be worth trying a lower tuning. There's only a couple of songs Ive been trying but there are a 1 or 2 sections that seem just out of range, I can get through about 70% of the songs. I dunno if a half step down would make a lot of difference tbh but it sounds like it would be worth experimenting. of course... maybe I just cant sing very well You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

I dont think I actually know any vocal exercises Hmmmmm - the first thing you should be able to control, is your larynx Try to smile and then pull air inside like you would do when you are surprised to see a person dear to you coming through the door. Try this exercise It allows you to keep your larynx up and pull air inside in the same time, without constricting the aesophagus - you will have FAR more air to sing than in any other way. The smile stays all the time Let me know if you feel these things ok? You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!
