Carpedm333 Mentoring Thread

Hi Gab. I saw you asked these questions to another person to start their thread, so I thought I would just jump right to this step. I look forward to your reply.

- How many time have you been playing guitar?
I've been playing for 20 years.

- Favorite guitarists, bands and musicians.
Led Zeppelin, Bob Marley, Fleetwood Mac. Guitarists: Peter Frampton, Peter Tosh, Jimi Hendrix, Don Felder/Joe Walsh on Hotel California.

- What are your guitar goals?
I simply want to be able to play lead guitar improvised solos

- How would you like to you see yourself in 5 years (related to music and guitar)?
I am currently a lead singer in a funk/blues/rock cover band, so I'd like to also be a lead guitarist/vocalist in 5 years.

- How many time can you play guitar each day?
Every day for at least 20 minutes.

- Do you have playing live experience?
Somewhat. Singing, yes, but only acoustic/rhythm stuff on guitar. Ive never lead solo improvised live.

- Which are your strong and weak points with guitar?
I am good at playing rhythm guitar, so that's my strength. I absolutely cannot improvise at all which is my weakness.

- What do you know about music theory?
Basically nothing. I know what a "third" is or "fifth" etc. I think...

- Can you record videos of you playing?
Yes

- Share here audios and videos that reflect your current playing.

My pre-written solo begins at the 3 minute mark. This song is an original.

Where Is Mentoring? Video Chat?

Hello. I signed up for all of the advertised features of paid membership of this site, including "Personal Mentor Guidance"
and "Live help in video chat"

Do these features exist?

Also, one curious question: Why do all of the instructional videos seem to be made around 2008 or older?

Also, how do I access the Lick of the day ARCHIVES?
