Metallica For Beginners, Lesson By Gabriel Leopardi |

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: Metallica For Beginners by Gabriel Leopardi
Here is another Rhythm Guitar take from me, this time the lesson is a little bit harder. I am working a lot on my Rhythm skills, since I have negleted them since the beginning on my guitar playing, because I was focusing too much on lead guitar, solos, and speed exercises. <div class="youtube-embed"></div> This post has been edited by Victor Simion: Aug 23 2021, 04:08 PM -------------------- |

Some great progress!! I think you have made some very good progress on your rythm technique! It's something that is very easy to let slip since it's easy to get focused on other stuff like scales/speed etc. Bending/Vibrato is also something that sometimes gets neglected.
The bit that concerns me here is the bit that I can't see. I can't see your palm mute? So I can't tell what your muting is doing relative to your picking. ideally, your mute should be firm and actually create a sort of metallic sounding crunch when you strike the strings. Thats the secret sauce imho to getting a really heavy tone. It's not about using more gain, or about down tuning, it's just about palm muting technique. This song is similar to SEEK AND DESTROY which of course uses similar techniques. I think you are on your way to having much better rythm skills. i'd like to see what your palm mute looks like the next time you make another video like this. So try to shoot it in a way that lets us see your entire picking hand and how it's addressing the bridge if possible? Good progress here, but still a bit of road left to travel!
