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: Beginner Solo in D by Muris Varajic
Here's my submission to Beginner Solo in D. I'm not particularly happy with the take, but I had the itch to post it because of some new video recording equipment! Thank you for the feedback. |

Hi mate, this is a very promising take. I always say that this lesson is an excellent choice because it covers many techniques in the same solo at a beginners level, so it let's us see clearly which are the techniques that need more work.
There are many strong points on your take like for example your guitar tone. Beginners usually don't concentrate on tone and just the pass of time teach them the importance of sounding. You already know how to sound good so congrats about it. Your timing is good in general, excepting when you have to play some techniques that you are not very comfortable with. You have a good control of your pick, pinch harmonics and bending technique. There are basically 3 things that I recommend you to work in order to take this lesson to the next level. - Sweep Picking Technique: The Sweep Picking lick that appears at 00:43 needs to be polished. It is not clear and has some little timing issues. Here you have a good lesson to work on it: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/solo-guit...picking-lesson/ - Tapping: The same here, it is not clear and has some little timing issues. Check out this lesson: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Tappin...-16th-Triplets/ - Expression: As Cosmin said, your playing is a bit rigid and it's lacking some feeling and groove. This is normal when we have to think too much on each lick and each section but as soon as you start feeling more comfortable with the different parts put all your effort on giving your take more dynamics, a more consistent vibrato and groove. I can say that your playing on this take is very promising and that you could take your guitar playing to a new level soon if you work on a well designed diary routine that covers all the stuff you need to achieve your musical goals. Please continue working hard and keep us updated! -------------------- My lessons
