QUOTE (Iluha @ Jan 27 2008, 04:46 PM)  5th week, shortest update ever  Well this last week was really bad timewise, I got home late everyday and so I allmost and didn't practice, only things I practiced here and there were alternate picking and Gabe's Muse Stlyle Lesson. In the alternate picking I noticed that when playing at 120 bpm I was sometimes inconsistent and playd off beat, so I dropped the bpm to 114 and started alternating between 114 and 120, and I can say that it helped tons as I'm getting close to playin in a consistant rate at 120 bpm. And on Gabe's lesson, well here's a recording! my first upload in the log! I made some mistakes, I started offbeat, made a small mistake at the beginning of the 3rd section(00:19) and had trouble with the D chord(man it's hard to pull my pinky while down the D chord!), and plus my sound is bad  I'm not sure where that fuzz is coming from, is it from my guitar? or maybe my BOSS Micro Br? or maybe it's just the effect's settings?There is a benefit to that I had such a long week, and that is that I accomplished alot of work and this week should be preety much work free! so if all goes well and no sudden things pop up I should have more than plenty of time to practice this week! Hey Man!! You really learnt this lesson!! It sounds very good played!! Great Job! About the recording.. have you recorded it by line? You should use a mic to record your guitar... it would sound better. Keep on rocking! -------------------- My lessons

Some Progress Finally!
Well another week went by, and timewise it was great I had alot of time, and I used it very wisely! So I'm gonna keep it short and just list my progress: Pavel's Alternate Picking 1 - I moved past my 120 bpm barrier and now I'm playing it on 126 bpm. Pavel's Alternate Picking 4 - I had alot of trouble with this one as my I saw that my pinky just wasn't independant enough, so I slowed it down to 60 bpm and practiced it that way the entire week, and now I can play it alot easier on 74 bpm, so I will stick to 74 still for the time being. Muris's Alternate Picking - Jumped to 90 bpm! Muris's Sweep Picking - A small progress but still progress, I moved from 115 bpm to 120 bpm. Muris's B Major Intermidate Solo - I'm so close to finishing it, I completely learned the tricky tapping I had trouble with before, and now all that's left is to fine tune the picking at the end. As I mentioned last week, I'm gonna start making a weekly recording of a lesson/solo I could learn rather quickly to try and get rid of my stage fright bug, so for the first week I honoured our new instructor Carlos and I recorded he's first lesson and you can find my recording here: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/guitar_fo...showtopic=11740.

That recording sounds great, I thought that was a very good first lesson from Carlos.
