Hi Rhida, welcome back friend!
this is an interesting story. I think that your progress will be much faster because your mind is already trained for many of the skills needed to play guitar. It's a pleassure for me to help you on this new journey. It's esential to see some videos of your current playing in order to see where we start. So I'll wait for them before I design the first steps of your guitar plan, deal? -------------------- My lessons

Ok! Here we go:
ASSIGNMENT #1: Goals: - Alternate Picking training TASK 1: - Let's cover this: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Picking-Hand-Basics/ - Learn one new part each day and practice it. Always dedicate some time each day to play the parts learnt the previous days. TASK 2: - Let's cover this: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Picking-Arpeggios/ - Learn one new part each day and practice it. Always dedicate some time each day to play the parts learnt the previous days. Exam and deadline: By September 1th you'll have to share 2 videos: - A video playing the whole lesson shared in Task 1 over one of the backing tracks, it can be one the slower ones. (5 coins) - A video playing the whole lesson shared in Task 2 over one of the backing tracks, it can be one of the slower ones. (5 coins) Each of these submits will be evaluated (check the coins value below). You need to get at least 7 coins to pass. If you pass, we can continue, if you don't you will have a second "call" that would be the last one. -------------------- My lessons

Great. There are two possibilities accepted for this first assignment:
- Working on a part of each lessons instead of the whole things. - Working at a comfortable slow tempo. We need takes that sound tight so use one of those approaches to make your takes sound the more perfect possible. Ok? -------------------- My lessons

Hi Rhida,
that sounds good. Each guitarist and each person is different so not all methods works for all people. If you notice that you keep motivation and focus with your own agenda, that's perfect! I've checked this take on the bending lesson. I've noticed that most of the times, the bends are close but not reaching the pitch perfectly. I recommend you to isolate each one, play the target not first and then bend to the note. Repeat it many times for each one, and then play the whole lesson. That's the way to master it. Besides this, you need to be careful of playing double strings, and also, put some attention on timing. -------------------- My lessons

Hi Rhida, great to see you working on alternate picking.
I think that this lesson sounds good. Your hands movement seems right for me, and the overall lesson sounds very close to the original. I only can say that there are some little timing issues which can appear at slow tempos since it can be tricky to keep tempo when the beat is slow. It's a great exercise for rhythm to work at slow tempos. Close to the end of the lesson, there are some unwanted noises, while the other parts sound clean. Just pay attention to that too. -------------------- My lessons
