Hola again Cosmin! I'm struggling pretty hard with the 7 6 5 4 3 2... transition in MM5. I'm not sure if it is simply that I'm just not fast enough, or my technique is hindering me... lol. It's hart to tell me much without a video, but any thing you can think of in the meanwhile, tips, pointers, or ideas would be much appreciated good sir! I've been running it as an exercise over and over to try and pick up speed...I think I'm close, but its tuff on me haha

Hey Tucker just got in front of the PC. That part is a bit difficult indeed the idea is that there are 4 16th notes followed by triplets. You have to take it slowly and clean - give yourself some time to develop it at speed and then implement it in the context.

Let me know how it works - just take care to make it sound as 'machine gun' like as possible, in sync with the drums!

Perfect! Thank you sir, I will build up to it. I think I am trying to force it as fast as I can. I'll slow it back down to square one, then correctly build my speed. I've got to get it down, any transition in a song that must sound as close to a "machine Gun" as possible, gets me freakin' excited haha! Awesome man, gracias!

Btw, my right arm hurts so bad man...ugh. >_<! <---That sounds kinda bad, lol! But I don't no any other way to say my arm is going to fall off at the elbow from not having anymore strength left to hold it in place haha!

Have you forced yourself while playing? Regarding elbow and arm strain, I highly recommend this little vid by Guthrie take the time to listen and apply the stuff he advises here, k?



Now, I want to thank you for your kind words you have no idea how good it makes me feel, knowing that I can be a source of inspriation for people Tell me mate, how much time can you practice each day?

I think I force quite a bit when I'm playing, but lately I've trying to ease off a little and work slow, more patience. I've put my goal at 1 hour a day, guitar in hand practicing. Sometimes I only get 15 or 20 minutes, but other times I'm able to hit it for 2 or 3 hours. How does that sound? I'll take any advice on a structured practice routine...

Well, after Guthrie's video, I see I've been practicing some bad habits. I've been using the thinnest pick I can find (I thought it would be easier), my picks are rounded, so I have now used scissors and made them all have a point and I need to not leave so much pick sticking out. Haha, very good video sir! I think I've got a comfy method that is correct now as far as arm movement! Lol, I'm ready to do some work and form some good habits now

Thank you much Cosmin for the direction sir I'll get a vid camera soon! haha
