IS THAT YOUR MAMA?
Nope didn't think so either. We all know parents don't get this.
I can show you how to be the virtuoso your folks could only dream about, but I first need your help:
* Pm me and I will show you where to start. I am online every day and I will help you out directly!
* Join my mentoring program. I will customize your learning experience in a way you haven't experienced before. We will have regular contact so that you can remain inspired every day and eventually reach a new level.
* Join my next video chat! GMC startpage holds a video chat schedule. We always cover a lot of ground and have fun. Remember that you don't need any previous knowledge, and you can be passive in the chat.
* Jam with me - you will find active collabs here.
* Post a topic on this board, guitar related or not - doesn't matter! You will find that chatting with instructors boosts your motivation to practice.
* You haven't missed my latest video lessons, have you?
* Oh and did you know that to become a killer guitarist you just need to focus on one thing? Everything
else is secondary. Pm me and I will explain.

Hey Tom!
It looks like you are progressing continuously man!  Congrats!What I noticed - you tend to keep your thumb in the air - it should grab the upper part of the neck and thus help you with your bending and vibrato, which right now have an equal amount of wrist and finger action - we should eliminate the finger action  I will make a little video for you regarding the thumb position and there's that lick which is still not ready - but, my thoughts would be that you should keep playing this one focusing on what I suggested and in the mean time we could also begin a drop tuning lesson - deal? I was thinking about this one: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Metal-Metrics-4/ What say you? Cosmin |

I will keep on focusing on that last lesson as well and thank you for the compliment it means a lot. Get to use my Parker guitar on the new lesson no trem locks so I can easily change tunings. Thank you Cosmin

I notice it takes a few times for strings to get used to tuning? Love the sound of drop C

You have nothing to worry about - you are a great guy to work with, so take your time, focus and let's see the heavy strings into action

Hello Tom! Happy New Year and happy b-day
Well now! I think you did a very good job here The first one still needs a bit of attention as there are a few notes that are not that clear yet, so I would spend a bit more time on it focusing on getting all the notes to sound as even as possible The second one is pretty tight, so I would suggest that you can take a look at this one as well if you want to take that legato playing up the hill https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Bens-Land-Of-Legato/ This series is THE thing!
