Sounds fantastic! I am looking forward to the assignments you will suggest At the moment I am practicing "Power of mini sweeps" lesson by you. I got it up to tempo at 140 bpm until the last bit where it goes faster with the legatos. That part I can't do faster than 120 or 125 bpm so far. I will keep practicing with the metronome. Hey, that's cool to hear you're having a go at that lesson. I like using shapes like that and they feature regularly in my playing. For those fast licks at the end, what I do to help myself keep the speed is to concentrate hard on the first note of each repetition and do my best to make sure that note never starts faltering in speed. As a result the other notes between are 'forced' to play catch up. I do that a lot when I'm practising. I'll pick the strong notes of a phrase which is usually the first note of a lick and make sure I'm 100 % with the beat or the metronome and then the rest of the lick has a better chance of staying with it. For picking, I recommend having a look at the Modal Madness series by Zsolt. He tunes to D but you can just shift his patterns up a whole tone if you're in standard tuning. Also, don't worry if the speed is too fast as you can still take the patterns and play them at whatever tempo is comfortable for you to get them under your belt. https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/solo-guitar/modal-madness/ https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/modal-...ic-minor-modes/ https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/modal_...xtended_scales/ https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/modal_...tring_patterns/ https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/modal_...irajoshi_scale/ https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Modal_...ntatonic_Scale/ This one might be a good one to start with, as the patterns are interesting https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Modal-...tring-patterns/ |
