Here is where the magic happens: the REC board turns bedroom guitarists into real pros. Remember - it doesn't matter if you fail or pass, as long as you keep posting REC takes you will progress.
The entries will be graded by a number of instructors. After grading, members will be accredited with the appropriate points if they pass, and adjustments will be made to their REC level.
Passing grade is 6 or higher.

Hi Beat!
Great to see you working on this cool lesson by Ben. There are basically 3 elements that you could improve here: groove, bending and fast alternate picking playing. You work on the rhythm section is not bad but there is more room to make it sound groovier and to give it more dynamics work. I notice that you tend to do small movement with your right hand while there are some movement where it deserves bigger ones. The idea is to make your right hand "dance" with the groove of the song, and use the bigger movements to attack the strings stronger. Check out how Ben uses his right hand in this part. Regarding your fast alternate picking playing, the problem appears in the faster licks, for example at 00:36 or at 00:47. I notice that your hands lost sync here, so you need to isolate this licks and work on them. Finally, your bending is not bad, you reach the correct pitches but I feel that they are not smooth enough. You could put some focus and work on them as well. Those are the weak points, but this one has many strong points so I give you a 7! -------------------- My lessons
