Hey,

I saw Kris's amazing lessons, and decided to join up for 3months, and I can already by seeing the videos, tell that my playing will become better quickly

Anyway, I am a 17year old boy from Denmark, will be 18 at november this year. I started playing guitar at my 16th birthday.. I decided to take up the guitar after I saw a music video with D-A-D on tv. A year and half passes where I dont learn that much, then I decide to get serious with it, and I discover this site, and at the same time my parents offered me a stay at a music school.

So I really hope the school and this site will help me to play like my idols, and hopefully make a band that will throw the current Indie and Metalcore trend away for some good old ballsy heavy metal

My favorite players are Gary Moore (pre 1990), Vivian Campbell in DIO, John Sykes, Randy Rhoads, Yngwie Malmsteen, Matthias Jabs, Tipton/Downing, Kirk Hammet, Wolf Hoffman, John Norum and Smith/Murray.

I have this gear:
Charvel 375 Deluxe, from 1989 with Bill Lawrence 250XL single coils in neck/middle and a Duncan Fullshred in the bridge.
Kramer mutt that is currently being built.. It consist among others of a Pacer Custom 1 body.
Marshall JCM2000 DSL 100watt head.
Marshall 4x12" cab.

Loads of pedals, as I love to buy gear

Anyways, thanks for reading my intro, I hope to have a great time here with you guys

-Alex.

Thanks mate

I have a question, I have noticed that outside each lesson it says "Current user practicing this lesson" or something like that... How do I "sign up" to practice a lesson like that?

Thanks.
