I'd say there are no good ones. Sounds like you are making the progress of a lifetime playing Satch and venturing into complex theory 🤩 |

Thanks for your kind words Kris, I don't know what you meant by "I'd say there are no good ones"
 Obviously I know what that statement means, but it didn't make sense in this context unless I'm missing something  Anyway, I need to go back to HERE to refresh myself as I've been bogged down with other stuff recently. I'm at my holiday home for a week from Friday so I should catch back up. I'll try and post something just at the same level as that link takes you to, then I'll watch the video you did in the next post and start again from there. Apologies buddy but life is always there eh? Cheers -------------------- SEE MY GMC CERTIFICATE “Success is not obtained overnight.

Further to the above, firstly I'm going to learn the minor scale shape you gave me inside out. I've only ever really used penta shape one so it will be good to get those extra notes into my fingers solidly.

Finally managed to start getting back on track. I've had to return slightly, back a few steps. This recording isn't something you asked me to do, it's just me noodling to get the A minor scale into my muscle memory.
As it's not an "official" assignment, you don't have to list, I'll be posting a chord/arpeggio progression soon but it will be more simple than before and then we can start progressing again. I just wanted to record something rather than this thread looking inactive. Cheers -------------------- SEE MY GMC CERTIFICATE “Success is not obtained overnight.

Hello Kris,
Okay, further to the above post, I've recorded another chord progression, kept it simple, it's 12 bars long but I've looped it. I can play it for real but for speed I did it in GP as I'm bound to keep making mistakes and I'm low on time to keep making re-takes tonight. I'll add to it a little bit tomorrow if I get time, this being on holiday malarkey is more time consuming than one realises  Cheers -------------------- SEE MY GMC CERTIFICATE “Success is not obtained overnight.

QUOTE (Kristofer Dahl @ Oct 7 2022, 03:22 PM) Very nice Phil, I am digging both of these. I am personally a big of practicing by noodling or jamming, and I have seen some killer results from it. Out of curiosity, is this something you have done in the past? And do you enjoy this type of practicing? I would say keep this up if it inspires you, it is a fantastic way of progressing. I haven't tried it before but maybe that's because I've only ever used shape one pentatonic which doesn't take much to remember. Tonight I think I'll loop the basic backing and noodle over it. Then on Saturday I'll add some more chords for a few bars, and see what happens. Do you think the little pull offs worked in the chord progression? I liked them.

Hello Kris,
Further to the above, here is my first noodle with the basic arpeggio rhythm, as I said I'll be adding more to the rhythm soon. When I listen to this, I can only think of a child's nursery and the toy clown has come to life in evil mode and is on a rampage pulling the other toys apart. Strange  Cheers This post has been edited by Phil66: Oct 8 2022, 08:55 PM -------------------- SEE MY GMC CERTIFICATE “Success is not obtained overnight.

Thanks Kris,
I'll work on it some more and try to record a real arpeggio backing with a real guitar. Cheers Phil -------------------- SEE MY GMC CERTIFICATE “Success is not obtained overnight.

Sorry, only had 15 minutes tonight.
There's a part where I was playing the A# instead of B, but I spotted it. Didn't have time to do another take but I've put it up here anyway. Slowed down the BPM to 80. -------------------- SEE MY GMC CERTIFICATE “Success is not obtained overnight.

Nice Phil - again this feels very promising. Your progress is quick and it's obvious you are exploring new territory in your practicing!

Another go, I seem to be stuck in this melody and can't truly break out of it.
