Southern Rock, Lesson By Stephane Lucarelli |

Here is where the magic happens: the REC board turns bedroom guitarists into real pros. Remember - it doesn't matter if you fail or pass, as long as you keep posting REC takes you will progress.
The entries will be graded by a number of instructors. After grading, members will be accredited with the appropriate points if they pass, and adjustments will be made to their REC level.
Passing grade is 6 or higher.

Original lesson: Southern Rock by Stephane Lucarelli
I used the Bass and Drum backing track (no guitar) and laid down the backing guitar tracks. I recorded this REC take years ago under the user Kalamari... when rejoined I wasnt sure I could use that account again so now I decided another go at this piece. I worked on the bends and the timing quite a bit by isolating the individual sections and playing over at lower speeds and then then bringing to speed. My calluses are starting to develop back with all the bending for sure. Thanks for your time and ears. |

Hi Juan!
It's a good idea to continue working on this cool lesson. The original performance by Stephane is very inspiring and it's full of details that you could include in your take. There are mostly 3 elements that I would work on first place: - Articulation - Dynamics - Bending - Tone All these elements are totally related and I would start by adjusting a bit the EQ of your tone. I feel that it's lacking some prescence and/or treble so it sounds less defined and dynamics are less notorious. Use the original take as reference to adjust your tone. I also think that the original take has a bit of drive and that makes it have more sustain. By articulation I reffer to the way you connect phrases, how you use slides, and vibrato to make the connections smoother. Once again, a tone with more sustain would help. Your bends are better, but I would put more work on them so you reach the pitches smoother. There is a section close to the end where you seem to be searching for the pitch instead of nailing it. Ok mate, you take has obviously lots of good things too, but I'm here to help you to improve, it's a 7, keep on the hard work! -------------------- My lessons
