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 Cosmin!
Yeah what I'm doing is playing with Ben's recording. But when I record myself I don't play over the original lesson. Should I? Another lesson would be great. Anything really. And the compositions are going well as well. While I was away I kept recording ideas on my classical guitar. Currently working on this - https://soundcloud.com/amitaik/54-to-55-5 What do you think? Thanks! |

Hey mate!
I super love the riffage and this piece definitely takes my mind to Audioslave or Rage Against the Machine, two of my favorite bands. I think that you should go for a more thematic solo at the end tho, in order to make the song complete, alongside some vocals Can you sing? I would develop a solo based on some of the riffs - why not take the main riff and transform it into a single note line and then maybe harmonize it with some intervals here and there? It would most definitely stay in the listener's mind for a long time, if you are to ask me Now, I would surely be curious to hear Ben's lesson recorded by you over the original version - and I am sure that listening to that recording could help you figure some things out in respect to interpretation, so that you may get as close as possible to Ben's rendition - deal? Now, about another lesson Hmmm, I was thinking about a lead lesson that combines more techniques and of course, relies on articulation What do you think about this one? -> https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Bendin...Friedman-Style/ I learned this style of bends some years ago and it proved a very valuable tool in respect to articulation control, so I think it can help you too! Please let me know if it's too difficult, ok? Cosmin |

Hey Cosmin!
Here's the first take for Bending From Outside Notes - https://soundcloud.com/amitaik/bending-from-outside-notes-1 And I recorded a take over Ben's playing. It came out worse than usual https://soundcloud.com/amitaik/bens-vibrato-odyssey-3-6 Thanks! |

Hey Cosmin!
I recorded another take for Bending From Outside Notes. I tried to focus on the pitch rather than vibrato in the first part, where I had trouble. Of course I didn't manage to do them both at the same time. I'll practice this part specifically. https://soundcloud.com/amitaik/54-to-55-7 And the exercise sounds good! So bending the 12th fret on the 2nd string half a step, hold for a few seconds, vibrate for a few seconds, then another half a step to make it a full step, and again hold, vibrate. But what do you mean by a third? third of a step? Not familiar with this . Thanks! |
