So as we have lot's of students on GMC and i check lessons every day i noticed one very interesting thing:
as soon as a new lesson pops up there are like 50 students on it - but the next day they all dissappear and there are 5 students on each lesson at GMC. This drove me to one little question: how good do you actually learn each lesson provided at GMC? Lot's of people say there is no explanation for certain technique but actually almost all important stuff is already covered with at least basic lessons. The only thing you have to do is LEARN the lesson. Not only look at it but LEARN it. GMC is created for YOU to LEARN to play the guitar - not for instructors to show you their playing skills. So your progress depends on how serious you take the lessons. So - i decided to create a poll and i hope you will be honest with yourself and make a vote that actually corresponds to your "homework" practicing. Don't take this as the offend - but this i a friendly forum and we are all here to help each other. This post is here to help you realize your goals and help you improve your playing. You can improve quality of GMC and your own playing by voting as it actually is! Vote honestly and take care! -------------------- "It isn't how many years you have been playing, it's how many hours." -- Prashant Aswani "PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE!" -- Michael Angelo Batio Check out my video lessons and instructor board! |

OK - votes are coming! Thanks to all GMC-ers! Let's hope more votes will be here soon!
I try to play just as the instructor does, but I just joined last week, and since most of the lessons are played really fast, I haven't actually completed anything yet, but I've made a practice shedulde with the lessons I want to learn, and now I'm gonna practice them everyday, step by step untill I manage to play them. So I hope my answer is that I play as the instructor does, but since I haven't actually made it there yet, I can't tell. Cool man - that's how everyone should do! Good job! -------------------- "It isn't how many years you have been playing, it's how many hours." -- Prashant Aswani "PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE!" -- Michael Angelo Batio Check out my video lessons and instructor board! |

Ok - consulting the results we can say most of GMC-ers are rockers/bluesers and metalheads. Most popular technique is definitely Alternate picking so we can get more or Alt.Picking lessons going.
And i am glad to see most votes go to "play as the instructor does" choice! Nice job guys - thanks! -------------------- "It isn't how many years you have been playing, it's how many hours." -- Prashant Aswani "PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE!" -- Michael Angelo Batio Check out my video lessons and instructor board! |
