Hi Roman,
We are continuing with MTP program for December in this thread. I have decided to push you a bit further with chords since you had trouble with part 1 lessons for triads in C major scale. I think it will help you a lot to learn notes on the fretboard, expand your chord vocabulary and get your fingers used for some unusual shapes and positions (things you might have never played before after all). So for your 1st assignment I will assign Triads in C major scale part 2 lesson. Here is your 1st assignment... Deadline for your 1st assignment is one week from today (14th of December). - Record audio and/or video of Triads in a C major scale part 2 lesson found HERE - Use the backing track I am providing you bellow - Feel free to use your own fingerings but I strongly suggest once you find a way stick with it! - Post your work in this thread (mp3 or Youtube are both fine) Let me know if you have any questions. Look forward to your work Roman ! Pedja |

Hey Pedja,
here is an mp3 with me playing the lesson. What i can say about my playing is that i really improved how the chords sound. i didn't had the chance to practice this a lot one but i think the result is ok. What i found out that i could played it more relaxed than the first one and the picking wit my fingers was smoother. Hope you like it. cheers Roman

Number of downloads: 250Hey Roman, You are right, this sounds better then the previous take! I like it a lot, now the sound is more even notes come out more... The only thing I could recommend right now is to change the pickup and try to use more bass sounding one or somewhere in the middle, this was very treble sounding
