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.

Original lesson: Soul / RnB by Stephane Lucarelli
This is my first REC take. I recorded this using an old Line 6 POD UX1 into Audacity using a homemade (Warmoth) strat I made and modified over the years. I really like Stephane's lessons and musical phrasing. Thanks for your time This post has been edited by JuanJovi: Jan 28 2019, 09:29 PM |

Hi mate, congrats on your first REC take!!
This lesson is a very good choice because Stephane's phrasing is very creative, groovy and full of dynamics. You've already learnt all parts and phrases, and you can play most of the parts clean and clear. Now it's time to focus on expression details that will take your playing to a new level. The elements that needs some attention are timing, dynamics, articulation and intonation. Regarding timing, I notice that some phrases are not going tight with the backing track, while some other go tight but could sound groovier. I recommend you to listen carefully to your take and compare each phrase with the original to notice what I'm taking about. While doing it, you should be able to hear the other elements that I listed. Articulation is related to the duration of the notes, and the connection between phases. Dynamics are essential in this style and Stephane manages this element amazingly. Once you improve groove and articulation, this is the next element to adjust in your phrasing. Listen to the original lesson and notice how dynamics (different intensities) are used in an expressive way. By intonation I mean bending pitch but also guitar tuning. I think that your guitar has little tuning issues, are your strings too old? or maybe your guitar was not set properly.. check it out! Ok mate, I'll give you a 6, because this take passes but there is more room to improvement. Cheers! -------------------- My lessons
