It's been 8 years since Monica joined the site.
I have been trying to find a good way to describe Monica's progress, but... I would like to show you instead. Start with this early Monica video: (taken from her youtube channel) Now I invite you check out her latest composition: (as presented in this thread) To me, Monica's extreme attention to details - coupled with her pace of progress, is unique! She nails every little detail. On top of this - she does it in an instrumental composition of her own - which to me sounds like a modern version Marty Friedman meets Andy Timmons ballad. You can check out more details of Monica's journey by browsing her topics. So Monica - I think you are one of the most inspiring students we have ever had. For many of us, seeing your progress is a huge catalyst to practice harder. There is so much we can learn from you. As an example you are always extremely thoughtful in your critique/feedback. Through your analysis, we can clearly tell you did not end up mastering all those subtle (and super tasty!) micro techniques by accident. No, your journey is a laser focused quest to master the instrument at every level. Possibly - even towards a level no one has seen before, because I know you are hard at work with Darius Wave - and I am honestly a bit scared to see where this will take you 🤩 But all of this wouldn't be worth celebrating, if it weren't for the fact you are also a strong force of positivity at GMC. Whenever I see you have posted, I know that it will either brighten my day, or teach me something new - but most of the time both. I know you have been going through some tough times recently - but rest assured that you will always have a community ready to support you in GMC ❤️ YOU ROCK! |

It was a competition not a collab (somewhere in December 2013). Yes, I'm sure this was the name because I have this wrote on my take from YT.
We had even a V-chat made by Darius named "Less is more" competition: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/guitar_fo...showtopic=50784 This post has been edited by Monica Gheorghevici: Sep 7 2021, 07:23 AM |

Of course probably I'm also quite crazy because I searched page by page. It last few hours but I found Ben's take. https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/guitar_fo...0769&st=120 This post has been edited by Monica Gheorghevici: Sep 7 2021, 09:05 AM |
