Juanjovi’s thread, for Gab’s Army |

...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 ;)

Hi JuanJovi! Welcome to your mentoring thread. Before we start, I'd like to know a bit more about you. - How many time have you been playing guitar? - Favorite guitarists, bands and musicians. - What are your guitar goals? - How would you like to you see yourself in 5 years (related to music and guitar)? - How many time can you play guitar each day? - Do you have playing live experience? - Which are your strong and weak points with guitar? - What do you know about music theory? - Can you record videos of you playing? - Share here audios and videos that reflect your current playing I have been playing mostly from mid 20's... I am 50 now so I'll some what with purpose for 25 years. Favorites - Van Halen, replacements, Doors, ACDC, ZZTop, Mark Knopfler, Smoking Popes, Tom Waits... many many more Goals - improve hand synchronization, gain speed for faster runs - (not insane shredder fast - but I am limited in this capacity) expand hybrid picking and finger style. 5 Years - just still playing and learning - maybe playing out again I cant say I can everyday because of work - but will generally tr to dedicate 45 minutes on average per day Playing experience - Yes played in a cover band for about 3 years and have done 2 man and sol acoustic strum and sing (wedding, parties - not a ton though) Strong points: Timing is pretty good for rhythm, phrasing is not bad (call and response) basic fills and solos are competent and get the job done. weakness: speed, limited improvising, pick hand erratic when tackling lead work I know some basic theory intervals , major minor scales, circle of fifths, very limited reading ability Yes I can record videos of me playing. I have done a few REC takes here already, I have videos and recordings on sound cloud of covers with me playing guitar, bass, and singing with EZ Drummer drum tracks. https://soundcloud.com/kalamari-431431621 Lastly, I have about half dozen or so original songs as well - these are private on Sound Cloud at the moment.
