I am working through this, just started

Gabriel's Video Chat Lesson Notes, Intensive Technique Course

I am thinking about working on the modal components of scales, I need to learn how to control a pick, I broke a nail trying to use my fingers so I am sticking to a plectrum

So once my classical practice is finished I will spend 30 mins or so on scales and their modes to get used to them...what do u think

Yes will do, bloody tabs, I hate them. I will try to learn some of the licks in your lessons and try to improvise around the pentatonic scale to start...improvisation is an area I haven't a clue about but i know I have to start.

OBTW Ty for your interest
