Practice log - The Voice of your Guitar.
Here's a little practice log of my first practice day. Day 1 Metronome 50 bpm - Played the licks At first I was struggling to stay in the beat. But after 10 minutes or so it started to work better when I focussed on which notes should land on the first beat Backing track 50 - Played the whole piece several times At first I was totally lost where phrases start and end because of the slow tempo. Resulting in playing totally out of the beat. After a while I started to catch the flow of the song. I noticed that I especially play notes at the end of a phrase to short, which makes me rush in to the next phrase ahead of the beat. Analysis of the first lick and chord progression Notes of the 1st lick: C# E C# // D# C# B G# // B B C# Over the chord progression: Aadd9 - Notes: A, E, A, C#, B, E. (TAB: 577600) Badd11 - Notes: B, F#, B, D#, B, E. (TAB 799800) G#m - Notes: G#, D#, G#, B, D#, G# (TAB 466444) Aadd9 - Notes: A, E, A, C#, B, E. (TAB: 577600) Total time spent: 2 hours  Jeroen -------------------- My Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/SparrowLesPaul

QUOTE (Cosmin Lupu @ Mar 19 2014, 09:17 AM) Hey mate! Glad to see you are working on this so diligently! One of the best ways to make sure that you know each little thing in a track, as well as note and rest lengths, is to learn it by heart in your head and become able to hum along with the track. Once you can do that, it's only a matter of time to learn it on the guitar, but all the note lengths will be in your head already Have you tried that?Hi Cosmin, Today I worked on my string bending as Gabriel advised me to do. Here's the result: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/guitar_fo...p=0&#entry0 Jeroen

QUOTE (Cosmin Lupu @ Mar 20 2014, 09:25 AM) Howdy Jeroen - I commented and graded in the REC zone Keep up the good work mate!Hi Cosmin, Here's my practice log of day 2 and 3.  Day 2 Beginners corner 21: String bending Worked on my string bending technique. I noticed that my bends were around the right pitch when I started this lesson. Not exactly spot on, but a little bit off. By practicing this over and over I am able to reach the exact pitch. Day 3 Beginners Corner 21: string bending Adding vibrato to the bends. It's quite hard to get nice even vibrato's while bending! Although I use a lot of bends and vibrato in my playing I never really paid attention to my vibrato while bending. This can definitely be improved. The Voice of my guitar Played over backing track 50 (the slowest). Works out pretty well now. Dave Murray style - Ben Higgins Started with a more "long term" lesson, this one will take me a few weeks. It's good to work towards a goal and this is a lesson I want to nail, no matter what!

Ans 7: I used to play at the church, just playing rhythm Guitar Ans 8: Electric Guitar and acustic/electric guitar, Amp. Ans 9: Jimmy Hendrix Thanks, Mr Cosmin Hey mate Based on your answers, I think that the following schedule covering one week should be a great start:This week's lesson: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Beginn...r-22-Hammer-On/ - understand the theoretical concepts - know what and why you are playing! - learn the lesson structure - things will flow naturally once you know what's next when playing any piece - learn each part and reproduce it slowly with the metronome - you will learn the lesson and become accustomed with the timing and feel - put all the parts together and practice them against the slowest available backing track - respecting timing and phrasing will provide essential advantages when you will face the details of any piece! - work your way up tempo with the available backing tracks Day 1-5: Based on the fact that you have one hour a day, I think that the lesson above is pretty much a sufficient load to handle this week, so please follow the steps indicated in order to understand, learn and perform it as best as possible. Day 6-7 - Revision (you practice the lesson, assuming you that you already know the structure and you can play it) - focus on timing, definition, clean playing, articulations and details! Recording - it's not mandatory but it can help A TON - and writing conclusions so that we may draw a line and see what have you learned out of this lesson How does it sound to you mate? Cosmin |

You know, a good way to dissect things even better, would be to record small portions of the pieces in order to make sure you have them all done well and then put them together. Have you tried that?

QUOTE (Cosmin Lupu @ Mar 26 2014, 08:49 AM) Looking forward to it mate Let's see how it goes with this one and then we can look at the other lessons as well Hi Cosmin, I recorded the voice of my guitar phrase by phrase to figure out if I'm playing every phrase correct. It turned out that I was still rushing some pieces. So I'll redo it tonight and see if I can improve.. I also recorded take 2 of beginners corner string bending. See REC takes. Here's my third take on The Voice of my Guitar. I didn't submit this one as REC take yet. I want you to look at it first.

How do I record against the original if I can not download the original to place into my DAW.
