I'm still working on trying to get Ostinato Etude up to tempo and also needed to try something else. It's tricky to get this one super clean and up to tempo and also on the beat which I think I stray from here or there. I know I miss the end of the A minor shape hammer on/pull off. The end legato run is also slow and sloppy. I think I am going to try to get a better run at this later this week. Here's my first take anyway. Thanks for viewing and for any feedback. <div class="youtube-embed"></div> You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

I'm not going to grade this one yet as I think it still needs a bit more work. However, super congrats on taking this on and getting your sweeps going! it starts off quite well and then about 10 seconds in, after the gap/break, you lose timing just a bit and start struggling to regain it. The good news is that your form is in pretty good shape here! Focus a bit more on sticking the timing and go for it again. I'm going to refrain from a grade on this as I think it needs one more go!

However throughout the take you loose hand sync to the point that we cannot really hear the melodic movement of the arpeggios. To be honest I am not sure if perhaps you also loose your over-all timing - I find it hard to hear over this backing track which does not have a clear pulse - and we cannot really isolate the timing in your playing either because of hand sync issues. I will refrain from grading you here - but I think you could easily turn this into a passing grade. As it is now, the performance does not convince technically or musically. I bet you could change this with a week of slow and precise practice. Keep up the promising work! 👊 You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Everything you do is just as it should be. This way it's hard to give you any constructive feedback. This is a challenge you have to pass by yourself, giving it enough time and focus. Yes - sweeping is effective technique and quite relaxed in fast tempo. At the same time it is way harder than it looks, when we play in slow to medium tempo. You definitely fail the timing. That's probably the only issue. Give yourself some time and patience You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!
