Ans.1 Goals - Developing dexterity, speed and lead guitar skills - Learning theory ( I know nothing except note names, whole steps, half steps, major scale, minor scale on single string, minor pentatonic scale box shape ) - Being a good lead guitarist Ans. 2 Weakness (Lead guitar maybe, theory, dexterity, learning solos, see my playing in the vid to know more https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cQX0p-EfEyw ) Ans. 3 Strongest point (I play with all my heart and out my emotion into my playing, probably, I dont know) Ans 4 My favorite guitarists and what i like about them - Dave Mustaine - overall the best guitarist for me, great at riffing, does great solos, and he is a great songwriter, lyricist and a good vocalist too. My biggest influence - Alexi Laiho - a great shredder. - Kirk Hammett and James Hetfield - a great team, i like kirk's use of wah, but sometimes he overdoes it - Eddie Van Halen - Love his tapping and tone - Randy Rhodes - Marty Friedman - Love his vibrato and note selection, gives his solos an exotic, chinese or arabic kinda like an eastern feel - Jimmy Page - Slash - not one of my favs, but definitely like him - Jeff Hanneman and Kerry King - Bullet For My Valentine's Matt Tuck & Michael Padget - Chris Broderick - a learned guitarist, very technical and intelligent - Michael Angelo Batio -------------------- |

Great! I am glad that you joined!
Let's start There are two parts in every improvisation Melodic and mechanical Melodic exercise when you are developing your inner ear and trying to create melodies on the spot Mechanical is technique that you are using! I will teach you both, but we will start with mechanical! To get your technique to the next level you have to do simple mechanical exercises using a metronome and making sure that you have a full control over your hands! I have created simple exercises that will help you to start getting your hand in sync and developing your technique! YOU HAVE TO PRACTICE IT AT A VERY SLOW TEMPO!!!! Here is the tab: E ||---------------------------|----------------------------------------| Guitar Pro File Hands_workout.gp5 ( 4.5K ) Number of downloads: 102 If you will follow my instructions you will see progress very fast! Please let me know if you have any questions! -------------------- |

OK, now i get it. On the inner circle, I move clockwise to add sharps and on the outer circle I move anti-clockwise, adding flats right? That's how I understand it. I've learnt the formula of the Major Scale. It is
Root , W, W , H, W W, W, Root. Oh and yeah, check this thread out and help me with my new guitar. https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/guitar_fo...showtopic=44580 -------------------- |
