Well you got the notes Everything else needs much more work. Don't rush to submit it like this
Here are some problems I noticed: - You almost always start every phrase before the actual beat. That's especially the case with that long phrygian dominant scale starting from the 13th fret all the way up to the 6th string. That's way before the beat 1. Wait for the drums to come to that point then start those 16th triplets. - When I say 16th triplets, those need to be executed within the correct time frame relative to the tempo of course. Slow down and break the phrase into groups of 6 notes. 6 notes = 1 metronome beat. The last A note should also finish on the beat no. 1 of the next bar. - Vibrato was good when you use floyd rose but normal vibrato with the wrist is not really near acceptable range. Work on that as well. - I noticed that you always slide down and up the neck between phrases uncounciously. You just lose control by doing that. It's an unnecessary long jump and you may well miss the note by doing that. Keep your fingers close to where you need to continue and concentrate on that position on the neck. - That long run over G and E chord (starting from 5th string down to the 1st) I played with 4 fingers. That's also the beauty and precision in both alternate picking and hands coordination. Try that as well. Remember that scale is also in 16th triplets so break it into groups of 6 notes per beat for easier understanding Everything I played here was well rhytmicaly defined and therefore everything you play must logicaly make perfect sense if you follow the note durations as written. I hope these tips will help a little and good luck This post has been edited by Emir Hot: Feb 20 2010, 02:57 AM -------------------- Check out my <a href="https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/instructor/Emir-Hot" target="_blank">Instructor profile</a>

Thanks for the advise - it's like I was aware of many mistakes but you pinpoint those mistakes in a way that I can understand better. I will need a little more time than expected on this magnificent piece you created, in order to really come close I hope. Who can play Emir like Emire anyway? So cool, man. It's still so fun to play, even though hearing you do it is like candy to my ears. Thanks, Emir!!! Cheers man I am happy if you find this inspiring. Take your time and break down each section into more separate "units". Think of every phrase as a separate lick and practice all those licks one by one. You got all the notes but now it's the time for polishing each of those individualy. -------------------- Check out my <a href="https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/instructor/Emir-Hot" target="_blank">Instructor profile</a>

Yes, I do find it inspiring. I learned many of your lessons and enjoy them all immensely - later you will see them... ...and in good form I might add - so far as my abilities will allow. It seems there is always room for improvement no matter how hard I try, but that's the spice of life, Aye. For something so well orchestrated it's well worth the effort. Cheers to you too, mate... And to you of course It's a big thing for me when I see people pick my lessons to practice. -------------------- Check out my <a href="https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/instructor/Emir-Hot" target="_blank">Instructor profile</a>

Hi, Emir. Just an update, your advise is working for me. And that long run over G & E Chord (5th to 1st. string), I started using 4 fingers instead of 3 like you said and it's much easier to execute. I think because I usually do use all 4 fingers on the neck except on those higher frets, then habitually I still tend to use 3. I got into that habit using my old 22 fret where the body cutting into my neck limited my finger space there. Glad you spotted that. Anyway, I am practicing playing it in time with your playing, and then by myself for comparison. Yea, still needs more practicing, slower then faster again... Good news man You can do that for sure, just take your time. -------------------- Check out my <a href="https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/instructor/Emir-Hot" target="_blank">Instructor profile</a>
