Is it me or am I the one with the worst take so far? I have just seen you were talking to me in chat window but I was busy here with recording comments. Sorry I missed it. There is really no the worst take. Every take has something great about itself. I think you are a very good player. Your ideas for music are great. When you have everything perfect (ideas, technique, recording etc...) then I can say PERFECT and still even if everything is perfect there is really no the worst take -------------------- Check out my <a href="https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/instructor/Emir-Hot" target="_blank">Instructor profile</a>

Hey Emir... Thanks a lot! I'm so happy right now! About tremolo-bar. I mixed the tremolo and bending. The part you meantioned I think was bending and I was aware when I posted the take that those dives wasn't 100% and that I accidentaly touched the tremolo bar when I landed on one note. But the rest went decently good and I didn't have more time, so I left it. About the fast run. Yeah, I mixed alternate picking and legato, because the fastest stuff is like 30 bpm over my picking speed, but I could somewhat get it with legato. But it still wasn't clean enough, but I will always keep on practicing. And that dorian note. I mostly just play what I hear in my mind. I think it sounds nice tho. I don't analyze the chord progression notewise at all, just listens to it, so I didn't have any clue that you were playing an F# or anything. But I have learned from others comments that this can be a good thing to do. To keep it more interesting. And you can be sure that I will be in your collaboration next month and after that also. I think this was the funniest collab to participate in, your comments are so helpful and a really good mentor and as someone else said (sorry, don't remember who) it feels almost as a private lesson with you talking instead of me reading. Keep on doing collabs because I think you are doing a GREAT job. Thanks Dexxter, I am glad if I could help. About the dorian note, if you like it, just leave it there and it's ok I told you that in the video as well. You are a very good player mate -------------------- Check out my <a href="https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/instructor/Emir-Hot" target="_blank">Instructor profile</a>

Hi Emir, Thank you so much for your comments on my take. They were really helpful and really mean a lot coming from a player of your caliber. You mentioned that my arpeggios seem to use odd groupings and that is very true. In my early days I tried to learn a lot of EVH solos and it seems like he used a lot of quintuplets so that is something that has stuck in my playing. I will really work on my guitar sound for the next collaboration and see if I can't get the buzzing fixed. I have actually been working on my alternate and economy picking quite a bit lately and I am hoping that soon I will have it down to the point where I can actually use it in my playing. I am just much more confident with my sweeps, tapping and legato because I have worked on it so much more. All my guitar heroes in my early years were legato type players so I never really spent a lot of time with alternate picking. Thanks again for all your efforts on this collab. It has helped my playing immensely and been a lot of fun as well. Emir, What do you think of Frank Gambale's style of picking. My ear really seems to be attracted to that sound and I have been working a lot lately out of his "speed picking" book. Contains a bunch of cool licks using economy picking. Thanks agin Emir, much appreciated and I'll definitely be back next month!! Thanks Monte, you are an awesome player. I know that EVH plays like that But still in every of his phrases there is some logical structure that just works the way it is. He is a rock hero. I have spoken to Gambale personaly a couple of years ago when he had a masterclass in my school. He is just a killer player. His picking is developed to an extremely high level and he is one of the best in the world. I know he uses sweep picking a lot but even he says that it works for some stuff and for some not. Depends what you are going for. If you want to sound more agressive with fast runs then AP just fits better. Learning both is only good for you. Gambale can also alternate pick whatever he thinks of but he can instantly switch from one to another technique any moment he wants. That's the advantage and he uses it when he needs it. -------------------- Check out my <a href="https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/instructor/Emir-Hot" target="_blank">Instructor profile</a>

Just watched those new comments... big laugh at lcsdds's two sayings: "sounds like a password" and about Yngwie playing arpeggios: "but he's playing it so fast that it doesn't matter" So many cool tips in all those... and I have to take to myself your comment about recording in small parts... I've recorded mine as a one whole - and just right between second and third part there're some strings sounding where they shouldn't do that already... that's where I could go for a separate record take... Will do it next time, for sure. ahh... by the way... you can pronounce my nick as "utaker" or you can call me Piotr, eventually you can go for an English name Peter. You are in the 3rd group so it won't be here today. I will do my best to pronounce your name right I am having problems with my camera again. If I don't solve the problem soon I will have to continue tomorrow. Sorry guys if you've been waiting but my camera switches on and off itself every 3-4 minutes. I have been trying to make Sondre's video for 1 hour and can't get my camera to last longer than 4 min. I think the camera got tired of all this -------------------- Check out my <a href="https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/instructor/Emir-Hot" target="_blank">Instructor profile</a>

Emir, I have the same problem. Check the battery, maybe it isn´t sticking correctly to the contact. Try to use the cable to reload the battery. I record myself like this. I can´t wait for my comment anymore! The power cable is plugged non stop. This is something wring with the camera. I am still fixing it. Sorry for waiting but I think I will continue tomorrow. This is now killing me -------------------- Check out my <a href="https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/instructor/Emir-Hot" target="_blank">Instructor profile</a>
