Well fought Soldier!!! It is obvious that you are making great gains in your playing!! This is a solid shred run up most of the neck!!! When you first started, something like this might have been tricky for you. Now, it's cake and pie!! You scream through it. The first take is very solid. The next couple are nice and fast but maybe just a pinch less precise. Still, it works in all the takes. You can use this lick in a solo for a great sense of building tension. I often use this like, or one like it, to build up tension in a solo. Nice!!
FOR NEXT TIME: PICK HAND POSITION: It's great to see you sitting in classical position with the guitar at a natural angle. I want to make sure you have something under your left foot to raise it up a bit. It looks like you do, just want to make sure. I do notice that your pick hand position could use a tweak. Try to move the pick hand a litle lower on the bridge. Perhaps increase the angle of the guitar a little bit so that the head stock is raise up a bit and the bridge is rotated down just a bit. Increasing the angle of the guitar will make finding an efficient hand position possible. Here is a screen grab from a great video on pick angle and hand position. notice that at a resting position, his pick lines up in the middle between the low and high string. This is where the hand should ideally rest. Yours is often resting near the low E. It's a subtle change but can have a profound impact on your playing. Here is the full video. It's worth a watch!! Try to do what he's doing here and calling "Pick Edging" https://youtu.be/jBLka76n9q0 As for this mission, you just... LEVELED UP!! Onward! Sarge Lesson 23 |
