I learned Crossroads and that is at 130bpm. I just figured that in the 1960's Clapton era, that 130bpm was not like today. as stupid as this sounds, it is the truth. i blame Canon Rock. It says 100bpm on the front. I did not realize that is just the slow beginning part, the fast part turns out to be 200bpm. edit: i will say this, thinking i sucked that bad, really motivated me to improve. Kris should lie to new students about this, so they all think they are only half as fast as they are. They will hear about the speeds of other guys, and think they totally suck well water like if felt. Great motivational tactic. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Amen, I would hurt so bad i coudnt do it without them.I had to learn to walk,talk, and bascially function after i got out of hospital.Funny though that i had to learn to do all that over again but the guitar playing i never lost.Ofcourse i had already been playing for 7or 8 years before it happened.I'm so thankful i never had any damage to my hands or arms,but even if i did i would still try whatever i could.I have seen a guy that played a guitar with his feet NO JOKE.Ofcourse he couldnt sweep pick but very very impressive for the condition he was in.Its that determination that makes you unstopable.

"Mr. Paul's jaunty style and lilting spirit belie a life of physical adversity. In 1948, on his way to a performance with Mary Ford, their car slid on an icy bridge and crashed into a support. Mr. Paul, in the passenger seat, threw his left arm across his wife's face to protect her. He was seriously injured, requiring on-and-off hospitalization for nearly two years. His arm had been smashed in numerous places, and doctors told him that they could set it in one position but that he would have no mobility after that. Mr. Paul told them to set it in a guitar-playing position, at almost a 90-degree angle at the elbow. That is how it is today." You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

If you are on painkillers. I must warn you man. It may make you want to play it more. And make you better, but believe me I know from experience. And listen to me when i say this. There highly addictive, and just wait till you dont need them anymore because the pain is gone. You will sound probably much worse. Your body will have to recuperate from the damage of the pills. And also note. Just because you dont feel any pain. That doesnt mean its not there!! Edit: Just tryin to look at for a fellow GMCer hoping he wont fall into the same fate i fell into 2 years ago. I hate pills. I hate even taking tylenol now!! You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!
