GMC Forum _ PRACTICE ROOM _ Training Program

Posted by: Outlaw2112 Feb 11 2009, 04:38 AM

If youre looking for someone to practice with,
Go over lessons, exercises and stuff, someone to
help you keep motivated and stay on track
post something here:

Im looking for someone who is motivated and intermediate
skill level. Im very motivated, its just sometimes i start to learn
something and not even finish it and ill start something else
If I had a training partner who i know is learning the same things
it would stop my wandering and make me even more focused to show
that person where im at
Kinda like the mentor program, except this is the training program

But if youre not intermediate skill feel free to post something
in here and hook up with someone

That's a very good idea man!

I sure encourage this type of study.

What sort of things are we talking about here?

I need to work on some advanced technique = better alternate picking, sweep picking, and hopefully a little more lick knowledge. Let me know how you want to do this smile.gif

Everyone should post what level they think they are at and what they want to get
better at, like you did... Give this post a couple of days and pair people up on their skill
levels and what they want to improve..

Myself, I feel that im an intermediate rhythm player and a beginner soloist..
Even though ive gotten alot better since ive been in these collabs
I would like to get better at speed picking, string skipping, sweep picking and my lick
and theory knowledge also

Hey Outlaw,

You and I might make a good training pair. We are the same age and seem to have the same taste in music. I would consider myself an intermediate Rhythm player and beginning soloist as well. I was having fun posting and reading in the Mystery Riff post yesterday and that was motivation enough to learn some old Metal riffs and start recording them cool.gif

I'd love to get somebody who's around my level to at least chat about guitar playing on msn etc.

I've been playing for two years and I consider myself an intermediate rythm player and I don't really know how good or bad of a soloist I am. I can play some stuff but I'm not very good when coming up with new things. I feel like a beginner but I realise it could have been a lot worse.

But if anybody feels like they want to discuss guitar practicing and similar stuff, and maybe have a few skype jams or something (that's not neccisarry though), feel free to pm me and I'll add you on msn. Would be great.

Cool, I added you on msn. I'd love to get more people to talk to about guitar though, so anyone who's really serious about getting a lot better on guitar, I'd really love to have them on msn. I'm sorry for not publishing my msn here, but PM's feel better for that somehow laugh.gif

I could definitly use someyhing like a training partner. As far as i know.. im around the level of intermediate. I need to improve my hand synchronisation for fast runs. I want to get better at complicated jazz and funk chords too.

Plus: Overall I want to get less sloppy. I want to play as clean as can be, wether playing lead, chords, clean or distorted. Im up for this for sure!

Have you thought of joining the MTP or is this different all together? I'm sure you are not the only beginner, probably just the only beginner posting. biggrin.gif

I am probably on the better side of intermediate. I have been playing for 5 years. right now i want to work on learning theory. And learning how to solo better.
