Hi Alex! Welcome to your personal thread for Gab's Army, my mentoring program. Here I'll monitor your progress and help you choosing lessons and designing guitar routines to take your guitar playing to a new level.
I'll copy the info you've sent me to have it as reference. I listen a lot of music : rock, metal, jazz, blues, brazillian music... I have 31, married with children I can't play guitar all day long but I can find a half hour or an hour per day to work my instrument. My favorites artists are Timo Tolkki (Stratovarius), John 5, BB King, Eric Clapton, AC Jobim About my guitar playing, I start playing many years ago but not seriously. I have a good level in harmony and music theory (I can analyze a song, I know chord substitution, jazz harmony...) , I know a lot of chords, modes and scales but I can't use it in my guitar playing because of my technical level. I have basic difficulties and the main is rhythm. I can't feel it. I work with metronome but I don't make progresses. I work hard and forget to have fun. I like improvisation. I'd like to play metal music, jazzy likes and latin music. The first task on this thread is to learn and record a video playing my new Muse Goes Stoner lesson. -------------------- My lessons

Hi mate, about your finger question. It's not a problem, it's frequently used like that as an anchor point when picking precision is required. If you focus your right movement on your wrist, you won't have problems with this.
About the take, I think that dynamics are better, but some old problems are appearing here and there (timing and articulation). At this stage is difficult to think on everything at the same time so you just need to keep on practicing to make the things more natural. You can share it at REC to receive other instructors opinions, feel free to do it. -------------------- My lessons
