The picking hand may need a bit more refinement. It sounds like you are hitting two strings instead of one in various spots in the vid so i try to give some advice on how to work around it. I can see your putting in the time and I know these are not easy to play. The gains you'll get will pay you back in spades! Sarge You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

These licks are all about forcing your hand to adapt to left hand only muting. Without realizing it, most folks cheat the mute by using their left hand to fill in the gaps for the right hand. these types of licks won't allow for that. it forces the hand in to a proper mute in order to avoid string noise. Your mute is greatly improved here so well done!!! You even got that pinky stretch lick down pat! The timing is drifting around the beat but that's fine as it's a solo and open to dramatic interpretation. One tip for future missions, no time based effects (delay/reverb) in mission vids as I can't hear each note. But it's a minor thing. You killed it and .... LEVELED UP!!!! Onward!

Thanks. I love your new Video Style Review. 😎 The only solition to isolate the string noise was right hand for me. Glad that was right 🍻 You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

In my first vids my whole body was shakin through the movement of my arm and hand rotation. So I think thats a milestone for me.

Getting to a point where you can relax the body and especially the hands, is a HUGE milestone in your playing. It opens up a new level of skill. Some folks never quite get over this hump. You are climbing over the top and killing it!! I have created a drill just for you that I think will help you further focus your inside / outside picking technique. This one also requires solid palm mute technique since it's got two open strings in the same lick just like the other ones in this Mission. this is not a rank mission but I think this one drill will help you sort out the issues you are working on in this mission that you just completed.

The good news is that bravery is rewarded. There is no wrong way to play this Mission. it's all up to you how you put the licks in. That is what makes this one a bit tricky for some folks and they never make it past this lesson. That feeling of being a bit lost in this is part of the Mission. The licks don't really fit with the timing of the backing. That's also the point. To throw you in to the deep end and let your fingers sort it out. Your fingers sorted it!! Score!! Congrats you just.. LEVELED UP!!! Onward! Sarge QUOTE (Potsau @ Feb 24 2022, 05:56 PM) Im kinda lost in this lesson. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Even if you need to slow it down a bit, this one is about the stretch but also all about the palm mute which is why it uses every sting to show gaps in your mute. To wit! \ QUOTE (Potsau @ Feb 28 2022, 02:53 PM) You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

Your palm is resting firmly on the bridge and you are not lifting and the string noise is sorted!!! You have great reach and pinky power. I know this Mission is a pain to mute, but it's built that way to show gaps in your mute! You sorted them!! To wit!! Congrats Soldier! You just.. LEVELED UP!!!! Onward!
