Hey!

I have just added feedback possibility under the http://www.guitarmasterclass.net/101-video-lessons-2.htm.

This would make a good opportunity for you to let us know how far you have got - as these lessons have been up for a while.

I posted a long one in the feedback section of the first pen shifting lesson....
but I left out one tip that might help someone just starting out:
.. it's so silmple, silly really but it might help a beginner get down the fretboard in a hurry:

Play the octive scale.

3rd fret Pent mino scale can be slid up to the 15 th fret for a quick lick or run and then back down to the 3rd fret ... it was the first way I got confident moving up the fretboard while staying in time... and it can give you some bearings if you get into unfamiliar territory in the 3rd or fourth parttern during a run - just know you can land safely at the octive fret and then jump back to where you came from.
