Rids Thread, for Gab’s Army Options

[Gabriel Leopardi]

Hi mate! Great to find a new jam from you!

I like how this solo begins. Your phrasing is melodic and you have a nice use of rhythm. I feel that the overall solo has a good structure, and a clear idea, but you definitely need to polish your technique here. There are basically 3 elements that require attention:

- Bending: I notice that most of your bends don't reach the right pitch. I really recommend you to dedicate at least 5 minutes every day to practice the first exercise from this video: https://youtu.be/JNDyI5b3Fh8, and maybe add this lesson to your practice:

- Timing. I think that your phrasing has interesting rhythm, but you need to polish your timing now.

- Hands Sync: This problem appears when you play fast passages with alternate picking. We have really cool lessons here: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/search/alternate+picking/

When working on my bending technique it's ok but in playing situation I have a tendancy to overbend.

I will maybe focus on training with licks involving bends rather than the technique in isolation.

I tried to relax my picking hand when picking.
The last run in my new solo shows that I think.

Thanks for your feedback.

I will maybe share my take on Ben's Lagato lesson by the end of the week.

Hi Rids,

Great to see you working hard. I also think that practicing over backing tracks , and combining some technique exercises with real music licks will help you.

Have you ever tried this lesson?

I'll wait for your land of legato take!
