So I started with the backing guitar, did it without metronome but strangely it was pretty much in the original time sig. That's one awesome thing. Then I recorded the first guitar, the one that starts playing on the 17th fret on the B-string. Then the second one that starts on the 20th fret on the B-string, and included the solo too. Was pretty satisfied with it, because: A: I didn't use a metronome B: It wasn't perfect, so now I can work on the flaws I found. C: You feel good about yourself and gain confidence in your playing! So I am encouraging everyone on GMC to record something they love to play, especially if you feel that you aren't progressing from your 150 bpm triplet shredding. Hope you like it, and have fun! /Seagull You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

I always thought that I played flawless, but I was wrong... haha. A lot of errors have been corrected now though. Good topic. Everyone should record themselves.

Its alot of fun to take just a simple backing track and add the rhythm guitar in then add the solos.. I dont even watch tv anymore, id rather mess with this stuff.. yours sounds nice, try to do the whole song.. heres a backing track for it.. http://www.guitarbackingtrack.com/play/met..._of_puppets.htm heres what im working on at the moment, im gonna finish it this weekend and add the final solo at the end... it started off with just a simple backing track of bass and drums and i added all the guitar You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

It's a good thing to do, and I do it, but every tiny little flaw I find makes me feel horrible. Recording, for me, is good for everything but the confidence, that makes it worth it, but saying it's a confidence booster in general is not something I can agree with.

But I find that it is a good thing to be aware of one's flaws and mistakes and thence work on them. That way you can boost your confidence in the long run.
