...the thing is, I need you to start progressing faster then ever, but to achieve that I need your help:
* Don't know where to start? Just pm me and we will sort it out directly, I am online every day.
* Join My Army. Sounds aggressive? It is! We can study anything from the most fearsome picking techniques to bombastic songwriting. A medal of honor awaits the brave. Seriously, this is an opportunity for you to get a personalised learning experience...what are you waiting for?!
* 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?
* Finally I want to tell you a secret. Nah I changed my mind - pm me instead ;)

Well.. that are good news!! 15 hours per day routine woulb be excelent!
You should divide the time in technique, theory and improvisation + fun. About technique I suggest you to compile lots of lessons from different books, clinics and GMC and separate it in this parts to pracitce every day: Technique: Legato exercises Alternate Picking Sweep Picking Bending and Vibrato Rhythm Stuff Tapping Theory: You should learn Harmony (from any book or it a teacher). This will help you to improve your composition and improvisation. Learn new scales and new chords positions every day. Improvisation: Prepair many different backing tracks to Jam over it. and finally learn complete songs or many licks of guitar players like Hendrix, Saraceno, SRV, Malmsteen, Vinnie Moore, Joe Satriani, Steve Vai. All this things are very importan so in the begining you should take the same time for every part. Good luck!! Gabriel.- pd: I want to hear something recorded by you now and something from the next year. -------------------- My lessons

Gabriel... Thanks so much for your detailed advice man.. (i didn´t have access to internet for a week so i couldn´t respond) I will definitely start doing that... i´ll divide my time into those areas you say... I´m actually not too behind on theory and harmony... in fact i think i´ve learned more of theory and harmony than what i am actually capable of playing with the guitar... so you can imagine it is frustrating.. but in these last 3 weeks i´ve been focusing on practicing about 4 of the videos from GMC and focusing on improving those things and skills... and i´ve seen some nice improvement... feels good.. so´ i´m printing this mail and i´m gonna start with my new schedule then... thank you Gabriel... i´ll keep you posted from time to time on my progress if that´s ok... Gracias Amigo, Jhonny La Chingas..! Hey thanks JVM.... that´s really good advice also... i´ll record my self attempting to improvise.... i´ll be able to tell then all the areas i need to improve.. Thank you..! It sounds great! I'll wait for your progress posts! gabriel.- -------------------- My lessons
