06:15:32 FmX: Strictly Guitar: hey Pavel
06:15:56 FmX: Strictly Guitar: How are you today
06:16:08 Pavel: Strictly Guitar: fine - getting borred at university
06:16:16 FmX: Strictly Guitar: hehe same
06:16:43 Pavel: Strictly Guitar: can't wait to get home to record the new lesson
06:16:57 FmX: Strictly Guitar: really, what do you have planned?
06:17:38 Pavel: Strictly Guitar: Whammy bar
06:18:16 FmX: Strictly Guitar: nice
06:25:05 Pavel: Strictly Guitar: so how is guitar going?
06:25:28 FmX: Strictly Guitar: actually I think I am gonna start warming up the shoulder before, stretching
06:25:40 FmX: Strictly Guitar: my shoulder and bicep hurt alot yesterday ohmy.gif
06:26:17 FmX: Strictly Guitar: no pain today though, so other than that it's going good. But I guess you can really get hurt
06:26:33 FmX: Strictly Guitar: My posture when playing SUCKS too think that's why I get some pain
06:27:21 Pavel: Strictly Guitar: try to sit as i do
06:27:27 Pavel: Strictly Guitar: while practicing
06:27:41 FmX: Strictly Guitar: never noticed how you sit, gonna see in the vids.
06:28:36 Pavel: Strictly Guitar: keep the guitar on your left leg
06:32:55 FmX: Strictly Guitar: hmm do you keep it in your left leg?
06:33:16 FmX: Strictly Guitar: looks like you sit "normally" like me, only I lean over the guitar :<
06:33:45 FmX: Strictly Guitar: could u take a pic for me?
06:33:57 Pavel: Strictly Guitar: check my last Hand Control lesson
06:34:08 FmX: Strictly Guitar: kk
06:35:09 FmX: Strictly Guitar: actually now that you meantion it
06:35:29 FmX: Strictly Guitar: it's the most natural position as the guitar stays in the "same" area even when u stand up
06:36:11 FmX: Strictly Guitar: though I must ask you, are you sitting with your left leg crossed over the right and the guitar on the left? lol , did I get it right?
06:37:03 Pavel: Strictly Guitar: no
06:37:18 Pavel: Strictly Guitar: i have a foot-stool for my left leg
06:37:22 FmX: Strictly Guitar: ahaa
06:38:36 Pavel: Strictly Guitar: it's almost the same position when you play stand-up
06:40:25 FmX: Strictly Guitar: yea that's really clever
06:40:43 Pavel: Strictly Guitar: it's classical way
06:40:51 Pavel: Strictly Guitar: and it's the only way to get to high skills
06:41:02 Pavel: Strictly Guitar: natural hand positioning is the key
06:41:13 FmX: Strictly Guitar: yea really good advice Pavel, thank you so much
06:41:35 FmX: Strictly Guitar: It's almost the same as standing up and playing, like you said
06:42:15 FmX: Strictly Guitar: anyway I am gonna go home now, quick walk, maybe 10 minutes. I'll be back when I get home. See ya later!

08:12:47 Gaelan: General Chat: man I wish I could practice this early in the am
08:16:28 FmX: General Chat: damn it
08:16:35 FmX: General Chat: I just can't practice with a metronome
08:18:49 FmX: General Chat: hey rokchik
08:19:01 rokchik: General Chat: Hey back. What's up?
08:19:15 FmX: General Chat: practicing
08:19:34 FmX: General Chat: how bout you?
08:19:50 rokchik: General Chat: I just got back from the gym figured I'd pop in to see what's going on before I start
08:20:06 rokchik: General Chat: still on barre chords?
08:20:26 FmX: General Chat: yep yep
08:20:34 FmX: General Chat: ohmy.gif
08:20:57 rokchik: General Chat: same...might start the alternate picking lesson today
08:21:05 FmX: General Chat: doing it on my acoustic though, figured if I figure it out on acoustic I will be able to do it on electric too
08:21:10 rokchik: General Chat: just to change it up a bit
08:21:21 rokchik: General Chat: I find that too
08:21:47 FmX: General Chat: yea that's good, I already started with that too. I practice alot of things, all beginer lessons + alternate picking. Though I am not moving on untill I nail the barre chords
08:22:03 rokchik: General Chat: I guess because the action is higher and my acoustic neck is a bit wider
08:22:14 FmX: General Chat: F minor chord is the most annoying chord ever
08:22:32 rokchik: General Chat: I'm getting fustrated with the barre chords
08:22:36 rokchik: General Chat: I agree
08:22:40 FmX: General Chat: join the club

08:23:16 FmX: General Chat: nah

08:23:28 FmX: General Chat: I don't know, barre chords are just... hard
08:23:50 rokchik: General Chat: yeah but so many cool songs use them
08:24:09 Gaelan: General Chat: mernin
08:24:13 FmX: General Chat: yea, I wanna be able to play Stairway to Heaven.
08:24:17 FmX: General Chat: all barre basicly

08:25:34 rokchik: General Chat: Yea I can do the opening to Stairway but that's about it. Creep by Radiohead is another I want to learn
08:25:52 FmX: General Chat: lol I made a club chat ^^
08:26:01 FmX: General Chat: really rokchik? that's cool
08:26:10 rokchik: General Chat: It's 9:25 here and sunny...no clouds
08:26:12 Gaelan: General Chat: yea ya need to stay there tho for the room to remain
08:26:24 FmX: General Chat: it's 14:26 here, cloudy and cold as hell
08:26:45 FmX: General Chat: perfect time to practice. I rarely sit down and just practice I sit at my PC and practice lol
08:27:02 rokchik: General Chat: Same here
08:27:17 FmX: General Chat: damn I'm glad I joined GMC
08:27:26 FmX: General Chat: Feels like I'm not battling this alone somehow lol
08:27:40 rokchik: General Chat: Amen to that I've improved so much since I've joined
08:28:04 rokchik: General Chat: and it's great to talk to others about guitar...very helpful
08:28:51 FmX: General Chat: yea
08:29:08 rokchik: General Chat: What songs r u learning now if any
08:29:31 Gaelan: General Chat: i can't practice this early lol
08:29:37 FmX: General Chat: I've stopped with songs, only one I practice now is Nothing Else Matters
08:29:39 rokchik: General Chat: LOL
08:29:52 FmX: General Chat: find it perfect for timing with the rhytm and barre chords
08:29:57 Gaelan: General Chat: I noodle around with my own creations
08:30:00 FmX: General Chat: plus I can nail the solo woohoo
08:30:26 rokchik: General Chat: That's a good one. Metallica are awesome. I've been tinkering with One
08:30:44 rokchik: General Chat: Congrats
08:30:46 FmX: General Chat: yea One is good, problem is the dual guitar
08:30:59 rokchik: General Chat: yep...never sounds right
08:31:00 FmX: General Chat: Nothing Else Matters is easier to do with 1 guitar
08:31:10 rokchik: General Chat: true
08:31:28 rokchik: General Chat: I haven't really looked at that yet...but soon
08:31:59 FmX: General Chat: yea another reason for why I practice Nothing Else matters is because it has alot of elements I suck at
08:32:27 rokchik: General Chat: Right now when not doing lessons I've been trying to nail down Killing in the Name by RATM. Got a whammy and a Wah now so trying to use them
08:32:29 FmX: General Chat: odd rhytm, finger picking and barre chords
08:32:51 rokchik: General Chat: good way to practice...will be very happy when you get it
08:33:15 FmX: General Chat: nice, I wanna learn alot of songs, feels like I better get a good foundation first. Go through kris' lessons first.
08:33:31 rokchik: General Chat: Gaelan what r u practicing now
08:33:51 Gaelan: General Chat: scales and barrechords
08:34:03 FmX: General Chat: I only know two scales lol
08:34:07 Gaelan: General Chat: and some straight chords liek E,C,A
08:34:22 rokchik: General Chat: I find just learning a song that incorps what I'm learning helps me stay motivated
08:34:22 FmX: General Chat: I should really learn more scales
08:34:24 Gaelan: General Chat: up till now I been a noodler
08:34:50 Gaelan: General Chat: just pick at strings tillI find stuff that I think sounds good and just work from that
08:34:59 rokchik: General Chat: I've noodles...now I'm trying to nail down the Am scale and all that's associated...and those damn barre chords
08:35:10 Gaelan: General Chat: I use a chord finder
08:35:25 Gaelan: General Chat: when I find something I like I lookit up on the chord finder to see what it is
08:35:32 Gaelan: General Chat: or what it's close to
08:35:34 FmX: General Chat: hehe I think we're all 3 at about same level, that's pretty cool ^^
08:35:36 rokchik: General Chat: Barre Chords are evil:{
08:35:52 rokchik: General Chat: That is cool
08:35:56 FmX: General Chat: so let's make an agreement right here and now
08:36:04 FmX: General Chat: the one that figures it out first, tells the others lol
08:36:12 rokchik: General Chat: deal
08:36:24 Gaelan: General Chat: well I know WHY barre chords get me....
08:36:26 FmX: General Chat: I found a good way yesterday to do barre chords. but it HURTs after 5 minutes so it can't be the right way
08:36:35 Gaelan: General Chat: as to HOW to fix the problem... I got no clue yet
08:36:37 FmX: General Chat: I know why they get me too, I got meatball fingers
08:36:59 FmX: General Chat: I've been thinking about putting my index finger over the fire.. maybe that'll make it harder
08:37:06 rokchik: General Chat: I have small hands and my index finger doesn't like me
08:37:25 FmX: General Chat: yea but one thing I've been thinking about
08:37:52 FmX: General Chat: the day I started, damn, I realise now I had absolutely no control over my fingers.
08:38:02 Gaelan: General Chat: ditto
08:38:15 FmX: General Chat: my pinky was a wuss, still is but alot better atleast Never thought about that before I started with guitar
08:38:32 Gaelan: General Chat: I was all muffed up last night... had the barre all nailed down and the rest of my fingers jsut wouldn't move
08:38:53 Gaelan: General Chat: tried to do an F chord and was totally hosed
08:39:11 FmX: General Chat: Fminor is the tool of the devil I tell ya
08:39:20 rokchik: General Chat: That's what I find the second I think I have the barre down the rest of my hand says " no ya don't he he" and then messes it all up
08:39:35 Gaelan: General Chat: I am thinking about a small wheel with pins onit....
08:39:46 rokchik: General Chat: barre chords are the devil
08:39:47 Gaelan: General Chat: like a pizze cutter type thing...
08:40:14 Gaelan: General Chat: run that over ones fingers to help build callouses on the soft spots
08:40:28 FmX: General Chat: yea that's what I need too..
08:40:46 rokchik: General Chat: now that i'm back to the gym callouses won't be a prob
08:40:48 FmX: General Chat: my finger tips are basicly leather lol I want the soft part of the index finger to be like that
08:41:06 Gaelan: General Chat: mine are getting there slowly
08:41:16 Gaelan: General Chat: my problem is that I get MAYBE an hour a night to practice
08:41:25 rokchik: General Chat: I find too that my hand cramps up
08:41:46 Gaelan: General Chat: if your hands are cramping up fast it's usually from one of two reasons...
08:41:53 rokchik: General Chat: yeah I don't have much time now that work is picking up
08:42:01 FmX: General Chat: you know when my hand cramps up? when I use my pinky and ring finger on 2 frets next to eachother
08:42:02 Gaelan: General Chat: 1. yer choking the Sh*t out of the neck....
08:42:09 FmX: General Chat: like a chromatic scale = cramp-feeling
08:42:20 Gaelan: General Chat: or two your neck is too low and you hand is at a wierd angle
08:42:43 Gaelan: General Chat: I play with my neck high because I have ape arms
08:42:51 FmX: General Chat: yea you know I think my problem is I don't know where the thumb goes when doing barre. I think that's the problem..
08:43:04 Gaelan: General Chat: try centered of the neck
08:43:17 FmX: General Chat: I have tried, no luck
08:43:20 rokchik: General Chat: Yeah mine seems to be when the pinky and ring are next to each other however I did notice I do grip the neck pretty tight when trying to use my pinky
08:43:53 FmX: General Chat: The only way I get tone in b and g strings is if my thumb is low on the backside
08:44:04 Gaelan: General Chat: my next rig is going to have large frets
08:44:15 rokchik: General Chat: I find my thumb needs to be around the center or lower just so I can use my pinky
08:44:29 Gaelan: General Chat: I suspect the larger the frets the lighter you can press
08:44:46 FmX: General Chat: rokchik: that's great to hear, no offense but I thought I was the only one and that there was something wrong with me and my left arm, but then kris said it was normal and now you say you have the same thing
08:44:51 FmX: General Chat: I thought I was a freak ^^
08:45:02 rokchik: General Chat: I think you can put more pessure on the strings when thumb is lower
08:45:26 FmX: General Chat: yea so that works but it's not so comfy.
08:45:33 Gaelan: General Chat: allo Tank
08:45:41 rokchik: General Chat: no and I think that's half my problem
08:45:41 Tank: General Chat: Hi all
08:45:45 rokchik: General Chat: hey Tank
08:45:45 FmX: General Chat: hey Tank
08:45:53 Tank: General Chat: This is a bit swish
08:46:06 Tank: General Chat: I dunno, I go away for a week, and they install a chatroom!
08:46:11 FmX: General Chat: hehe
08:46:21 rokchik: General Chat: Yeah but it's raelly great
08:46:44 FmX: General Chat: Tank, what do you do with your thumb when you barre?
08:46:56 rokchik: General Chat: great question FmX
08:47:08 Tank: General Chat: When I barre my thumb tip is in the centre of the back
08:47:16 Tank: General Chat: of the neck
08:47:35 FmX: General Chat: aha, so say like the back of like the D or G string or somewhere around there?
08:47:46 rokchik: General Chat: mine hovers around there but I need to put it lower to use my pinky
08:47:51 Tank: General Chat: I tend to drop my wrist quite low
08:48:04 FmX: General Chat: aha, gotta try that, sec!
08:48:09 rokchik: General Chat: I've never noticed if I do that
08:48:44 FmX: General Chat: blah the index finger do you put right behind the fret?
08:48:46 Tank: General Chat: I used to play cello for many years, so I think a lot of that position comes from that
08:49:16 Tank: General Chat: Yeah, whichever finger I use will be about a mm behind the fret
08:49:45 Tank: General Chat: (I sometimes place the second finger on top of the first if I'm playing Em shapes)
08:49:54 FmX: General Chat: yea I got a pretty good sound out of that actually
08:50:04 rokchik: General Chat: I think I need to get the rack to stretch my fingures
08:50:10 FmX: General Chat: though I pressed abit hard, that's what annoys me
08:50:28 Tank: General Chat: I'm writing a vid lesson for beginners, so you'll see how I do it in a couple of weeks hopefully
08:50:36 Gaelan: General Chat: I am about ready to jsut work on non barre chord stuff
08:50:39 rokchik: General Chat: cool
08:50:40 FmX: General Chat: ok, thanks for the advice Tank, I think I'm close to figuring it out now
08:50:50 Gaelan: General Chat: honestly I ain't looking to play other peoples material anyways lol
08:50:52 FmX: General Chat: was about same as I did yesterday, only the thumb is lower
08:51:24 Gaelan: General Chat: got enough of my own shiznat in my head that I wanna get out
08:51:41 Tank: General Chat: With practice you'll develop a comfortable way of doing it. The most comfortable way for you, is the right way
08:51:42 rokchik: General Chat: you go Gaelan fight the power
08:51:45 FmX: General Chat: hmm seems to make a difference if you're not exactly behind the fret too..
08:52:11 rokchik: General Chat: I just noticed that myself FmX
08:52:14 Gaelan: General Chat: allo browq
08:52:23 browq: General Chat: arrgghhh mateys
08:52:25 rokchik: General Chat: hey Browq
08:52:35 Tank: General Chat: It becomes more difficult to fret the further away you are from the fret
08:53:12 FmX: General Chat: mhm, I am trying to find the optimal way to barre before I sit down and practice it, I am close now!
08:53:13 Tank: General Chat: because you have to apply more pressure, for the string to make firm contact with the stopping fret
08:53:37 Gaelan: General Chat: man I need a laptop lol
08:53:46 FmX: General Chat: though I have to press hard, is it normal?
08:53:51 browq: General Chat: i remember the days i was trying to play barre chords, man i sucked when i first started
08:53:56 browq: General Chat: it was sooo hard
08:54:07 FmX: General Chat: hehe then you know what we're going through browq
08:54:21 rokchik: General Chat: Oh I C what your saying Tank. My index fingure tends to angle off the further away from the fret
08:54:28 rokchik: General Chat: not a good sound
08:54:41 Tank: General Chat: It does take pressure to do it correctly, but you'll get used to it as your hand strengthens
08:54:53 FmX: General Chat: I press with my thumb right now, is that the correct technique? or is it wrong
08:55:02 rokchik: General Chat: Hand strength is my problem
08:55:07 browq: General Chat: yes i do. but you'll soon be able to do it. i don't qoute remember how long a day i praticed it, about 10 min a day i geuss
08:55:12 browq: General Chat: it comes pretty fast
08:55:22 Tank: General Chat: grip between index finger and thumb
08:55:45 FmX: General Chat: Tank do you put your thumb right behind the index finger when barre+
08:56:17 Tank: General Chat: Rokchik, hand strength will develop the more you practice
08:56:41 rokchik: General Chat: yeah I know but it's very frustrating
08:56:42 Gaelan: General Chat: what I need is to win the lotto so I can afford to stay home and practice lol
08:56:49 FmX: General Chat: aha, that worked better didn't have to press as hard. I put my thumb like 1.5 fret away. Felt better with thumb behind though, is that the correct technique?
08:56:53 rokchik: General Chat: sounds like a good plan
08:57:19 Tank: General Chat: FMX, yeah, if you remove the neck from between your fingers, your thumb tip should be parallel with the mid section of your index finger
08:57:44 FmX: General Chat: aha, let me try that some more
08:57:53 Gaelan: General Chat: well I launched a new service two weeks ago that is going to be hitting the east coast in about a week.. if that takes off I can cut my dayjob hours in half which will leave me a few hours practice time.
08:58:04 FmX: General Chat: lol I have a different problem now
08:58:19 FmX: General Chat: the high e-string gets semi-muted now, but not the b and g-string atleast
08:59:36 FmX: General Chat: damn barre chords
08:59:39 FmX: General Chat: I hate them
08:59:44 rokchik: General Chat: Oh My God!!!! just played the opening 3 barre chords of Creep and sounded good...no buzzing no muting just clean sound...
08:59:58 Gaelan: General Chat: for me FmX it's the bottom half of the fretboard that gets semi muted
09:00:16 Gaelan: General Chat: the strings that the fleshy part of my index finger are suppoed to handle
09:00:28 FmX: General Chat: lucky rokchik, it sounds better for me too, thanks for the advice Tank. But I still got some more things to figure out before I nail this
09:00:57 FmX: General Chat: Gaelan I have the exact same problem but now that I did like Tank said with the thumb behind and in the centre theres some pressure on them so they ring
09:01:05 FmX: General Chat: but the high e-string gets semi-mutes
09:01:12 FmX: General Chat: so, solved one problem, got another haha
09:01:15 Tank: General Chat: Ah, I cheat on that one
09:01:27 rokchik: General Chat: Well didn't last long....back to the muting thing...damn. Thanks for the advice Tank it's gonna help a lot I can tell
09:01:46 Gaelan: General Chat: well not really it jsut means that now you have to try and "pull in" the base of your index finger
09:02:08 Gaelan: General Chat: when I do that I get a clean ring on the high E
09:02:09 FmX: General Chat: but now atleast I got the right technique.. I pressed 10 times as hard before, that might explain why my left arm hurt yesterday ohmy.gif
09:02:20 FmX: General Chat: so thanks I guess, may have saved me from an injury
09:02:27 Tank: General Chat: I have realtively long fingers, so I place the hard part of my mid knuckle over the E and B strings, and then allow the top two thirds of my finger to go across the rest of the strings.
09:02:32 Gaelan: General Chat: choking the life out of the neck will make any excercise hurt
09:02:37 FmX: General Chat: I have gigantic hands
09:02:55 FmX: General Chat: ok not gigantic, but pretty long fingers
09:02:59 Tank: General Chat: Rather than put my fingertip on the bottom e, and gripping with the rest of the finger
09:03:01 FmX: General Chat: that's my problem
09:03:06 Gaelan: General Chat: i have odd fingers... they are hourglass shaped lol
09:03:23 FmX: General Chat: haha
09:03:36 Tank: General Chat: rokchik, you'll get little breakthroughs here and there
09:03:51 Gaelan: General Chat: no matter hw I pivot, I always have a bow in my finger
09:03:58 rokchik: General Chat: Tank that's some great advice I find I try to grip the strings with my fingure
09:04:10 FmX: General Chat: this chat rox
09:04:18 FmX: General Chat: can ask questions.. for ppl with same interest
09:04:23 FmX: General Chat: but 10 times better than you xD
09:04:25 Gaelan: General Chat: yep
09:04:47 rokchik: General Chat: Yes I'm so glad Kris put this chat in
09:04:53 FmX: General Chat: Tank another question
09:04:57 rokchik: General Chat: you get real time answers
09:04:59 FmX: General Chat: I have problems with my thumb generally.
09:05:22 FmX: General Chat: When running down a Am Penta scale, is your thumb stationary or does it move up and down with your other fingers
09:05:30 FmX: General Chat: because mine just sits there in the middle lol
09:05:43 FmX: General Chat: it feels like it slows me down, but I don't know
09:05:49 Gaelan: General Chat: I pivot mine FmX
09:06:22 FmX: General Chat: same here
09:06:22 rokchik: General Chat: I kind picot mine too...but I'm still slow but then again just starting that scale
09:06:22 Gaelan: General Chat: it stays in the same spot but rolls up and down depending on which direction I am playing
09:06:38 Tank: General Chat: I've never checked. I think it just goes where is comfortable, but I suspect it's around the middle
09:07:01 FmX: General Chat: but it doesn't really move from the position if you know what I mean
09:07:20 Tank: General Chat: not unless I'm shifting position
09:07:28 FmX: General Chat: ok, good then .D
09:07:38 Gaelan: General Chat: yea I put mine in the middle so I can pivot on it. I have ape arms so I have to play in a position that allows my forarm to be "up"
09:08:16 Tank: General Chat: Again, it's all about comfort.
09:08:20 Gaelan: General Chat: yep
09:08:25 rokchik: General Chat: FmX...I just tried moving my thumb around and it just messed me up. I think when its in one place it lets the other fingures focus on the notes
09:08:36 Gaelan: General Chat: I can't practice or play worth beans sitting down
09:08:56 Tank: General Chat: The trick to playing fast is to train your hands so well that you relax while playing. You don't get cramp, or press down too hard.
09:08:57 rokchik: General Chat: But when I move postion moves with
09:09:20 Gaelan: General Chat: allo Boggi
09:09:41 rokchik: General Chat: I find I put a lot of pressure on the neck with my thumb...like I'm pushing up or something
09:09:52 Gaelan: General Chat: anyone know about the subtlties of fret size?
09:09:54 FmX: General Chat: ok rokchik we got similar technique then
09:10:04 Boggi: General Chat: hello
09:10:10 FmX: General Chat: hey Boggi
09:10:13 Gaelan: General Chat: would large frets be eaier to play versus medium frets for example?
09:10:15 rokchik: General Chat: Nello Boggi
09:10:34 rokchik: General Chat: That should be a H not a N. can't type sorry
09:10:38 Tank: General Chat: That's because your first finger isn't strong enough yet, and you are over compensating with your thumb (which is naturally stronger), to push the strings onto the first finger, rather than the other way around
09:10:49 Tank: General Chat: hi boggi
09:11:01 rokchik: General Chat: that makes sense
09:11:20 Gaelan: General Chat: **sighs** 20 mins before I need to bail and get ready for my stint as a wage slave
09:11:33 rokchik: General Chat: so I guess with practice this should stop
09:12:03 rokchik: General Chat: LOL Gaelan...I'm off today...guitar all day
09:12:06 Tank: General Chat: It will stop as your hand gains strength
09:12:07 Gaelan: General Chat: it will rokchik... I am already noting a difference. What I did was experiement with how hard I had to fret to get a clean ring
09:12:40 rokchik: General Chat: cool thanks for the advice guys
09:12:54 Gaelan: General Chat: then I ran scales are that pressure to get a memory. now the only time I throttle the neck is when those evil barre chords come into play
09:13:05 FmX: General Chat: my god, I'm trying the barre excercise that kris talks about in his video
09:13:13 FmX: General Chat: this is bad
09:13:19 FmX: General Chat: I suck at this damn it
09:13:23 Gaelan: General Chat: bad as in good?
09:13:28 Gaelan: General Chat: nm....
09:13:31 Tank: General Chat: Right, I must go.
09:13:34 Gaelan: General Chat: question answered
09:13:35 rokchik: General Chat: Keep your head up man...
09:13:39 Gaelan: General Chat: take care Tank
09:13:44 rokchik: General Chat: see ya Tank and thanks again
09:13:49 Tank: General Chat: all the best with practicing

13:00:32 edguy: General Chat: very fast
13:00:44 Pavel: General Chat: hehe
13:00:46 edguy: General Chat: like your playing
13:01:36 edguy: General Chat: do you still practice pavel or do you only chat with us?
13:02:37 Pavel: General Chat: right now i am working on a new lessons
13:02:39 Pavel: General Chat: editing videos
13:02:46 blindwillie: General Chat: wee
13:02:55 Pavel: General Chat: so that's why i can also chat
13:03:01 edguy: General Chat: ah ok
13:03:22 blindwillie: General Chat: you are producing to fast now, cant keep up, they all seems fun. Im to slow to learn
13:03:44 edguy: General Chat: take your time
13:03:51 Pavel: General Chat: Kris and i hve kind of agreement - i will work on 2 lessons each week
13:03:52 blindwillie: General Chat: ye, I am
13:03:58 edguy: General Chat: i have the same problem
13:03:59 blindwillie: General Chat: wow, great
13:04:12 Pavel: General Chat: i would love to make more of them but i can't work on both lessons and university
13:04:24 edguy: General Chat: what do you study pavel?
13:04:30 Pavel: General Chat: let's say next week - i won't be able to do lessons - i haev an exam on MOnday
13:04:38 Pavel: General Chat: Informatics
13:05:00 edguy: General Chat: is it hard?
13:05:11 Pavel: General Chat: do you guys have tremolo on your guitars?
13:05:15 edguy: General Chat: because i want to study economy informatics
13:05:22 edguy: General Chat: yes i have a tremolo
13:05:29 edguy: General Chat: but no floyed rose
13:05:35 Pavel: General Chat: informatics are very interesting and not hard if you have goot teachers - but my teachers suck
13:05:52 edguy: General Chat: ah ok
13:05:55 Pavel: General Chat: well - next lesson is about whammy bar incorporation so that's why i am asking
13:06:11 blindwillie: General Chat: @pavel: I dont. Because of what music I like to learn, I selected sustain and keeping tune before it
13:06:13 edguy: General Chat: wow thats nice
13:07:09 Pavel: General Chat: well - JEM always keeps tune and has a great sustain so i don't have problem with that wink.gif
13:07:27 blindwillie: General Chat: As it is now I cant see I would ever use it really, but I'm sure you will change that with your lessons wink.gif
13:07:38 edguy: General Chat: i have an ibanez too but a teh S series
13:07:41 Pavel: General Chat: yeah well it depends on a person
13:07:46 Pavel: General Chat: i love to play around with it
13:07:57 blindwillie: General Chat: Ye, but still trem < tune and sustain on the same guitar as trem
13:08:12 blindwillie: General Chat: hmm without trem ofc
13:08:20 blindwillie: General Chat: ah, you get it
13:09:23 Pavel: General Chat: well on expensive guitars that problem is actually not a problem hehe
13:09:40 blindwillie: General Chat: And if I ever feel I need a trem, I will have to uy a new guitar. Wee \o/
13:09:46 edguy: General Chat: why we have no slow down function in the videos is this in work?
13:10:55 Pavel: General Chat: I have no idea
13:11:06 blindwillie: General Chat: oh yes, a trem will always be bigger risk of detuning than same guitar without trem
13:11:07 Pavel: General Chat: i have nothing to do with website development
13:11:19 edguy: General Chat: because at the moment i practice the courious coincidence solo from kris
13:11:28 blindwillie: General Chat: have to go for a couple of minutes, brb
13:11:41 edguy: General Chat: and for me teh slow things are too fast
13:11:43 Pavel: General Chat: well that was a problem on my first RG - it was 300$, now i haev this baby - it's 2300$ and i never went out of tune in the middle of playing
13:12:25 edguy: General Chat: pavel i have a question
13:12:39 Pavel: General Chat: go ahead
13:12:49 edguy: General Chat: i have a big problem with palying to an backing track
13:12:56 Pavel: General Chat: why is that?
13:13:06 edguy: General Chat: i dont know but i think
13:13:25 edguy: General Chat: i played the last years (before gmc) only with the cd
13:13:33 edguy: General Chat: so i heard the guitar
13:13:55 edguy: General Chat: without hearing what the guitar is palying i have big problems to paly in time
13:14:10 Pavel: General Chat: well before trying playing to a backing track you haev to elarn tabs
13:14:16 Pavel: General Chat: learn*
13:14:42 edguy: General Chat: yeah ok when i have learned the tabs and i want to play the song or whatever to the backing track
13:14:56 edguy: General Chat: i dont know what i have to do
13:15:10 edguy: General Chat: should i listen to the drums and play
13:15:31 Pavel: General Chat: the rythm is the most important
13:15:35 Pavel: General Chat: counting 1-2-3-4 1-2-3-4
13:16:34 blindwillie: General Chat: @no ofc, a good guitar shouldn't, but since it not in my style I choosed the model without trem, personal preferneces
13:16:42 blindwillie: General Chat: edguy, you too?

13:55:55 Pavel: General Chat: i mean it's not a problem to read - problem is to read and play it 100% correct immediately
