...the thing is, I need you to start progressing faster then ever, but to achieve that I need your help:
* Don't know where to start? Just pm me and we will sort it out directly, I am online every day.
* Join My Army. Sounds aggressive? It is! We can study anything from the most fearsome picking techniques to bombastic songwriting. A medal of honor awaits the brave. Seriously, this is an opportunity for you to get a personalised learning experience...what are you waiting for?!
* Join my next video chat! GMC startpage holds a video chat schedule. We always cover a lot of ground and have fun. Remember that you don't need any previous knowledge, and you can be passive in the chat.
* Jam with me - you will find active collabs here.
* Post a topic on this board, guitar related or not - doesn't matter! You will find that chatting with instructors boosts your motivation to practice.
* You haven't missed my latest video lessons, have you?
* Finally I want to tell you a secret. Nah I changed my mind - pm me instead ;)

Hello Gabriel!
Nice to let me in your army Ok you ask and here the answers : I grow up with Hendrix -Santana -Pink Floyd- Oldfield -Aldi Meola-Colosseum-great german bands-and a lot more. Metallica i got into through my daughter - Bling Guardian i like ,Faun and more ......this natural spirit and feeling from that celtic kind of music . Hard music compared with soft parts and a universal lyric . Important in this kind of music that i still can hear the music elements and instruments . For example Slipknot i don't like . I am serious with studying my guitar / playing - but i never played with someone or with backing tracks before i came to GMC. You know my Van halen lesson - rhythm is a problem at first ! (this lesson i am working on too, but will take now more time until the next record , Ben mad me a great video for help ) I like to play just around and i have fun and always a idea . ( will make some sample ) Problem using chords and than putting together with a solo line Ok i will today make some clips from solo and rhythm guitar in between my dutys. and one idea of my own melody and rhythm mixed somehow My idea is of course : The principles of our Army are: + Improve your technique + Make music and solos + Have fun + Destroy the enemy (hahaha not realy just kidding... ) All the daily exercises and studys in a way that leeds to a way of german metal a kind of time table. ( before i forget right know just in standard tuning - dropped stuff sounds great but its to early for me i think ) Thank you Dieter OK Gabriel here the first sound clip: http://soundcloud.com/dieterleguitar/oldmem1 and the next one http://soundcloud.com/dieterleguitar/backing-study-1 And here a record i just made some weeks a go - just like that in a mood This post has been edited by Dieterle: Jun 8 2012, 07:14 AM |

Hi mate! Thanks for all this info!I have been following your REC takes so I can notice which are the main things to work on. In this first week I would like to assign you these lessons to work on.
This one for your right hand and for timing work: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Picking-Hand-Basics/ and this one for your left hand and also timing work. https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Bens-Land-Of-Legato/ This two are tricky so mayb it will take more than one week to master, so please start working on these ones and keep me updated in order to add some other complementary jobs like specific exercises, riffing and learning some theory, scales and chords. In the short term I would like to see you joining collaborations here at the site. -------------------- My lessons

Hi mate! Thanks for your take! I'm glad to know that you are enjoying my German Power Metal lessons. You have to practice this one using the slower backings because your timing isn't correct on this take. Once you feel comfortable with the slower ones, go for this normal tempo backing.
I wish you have a nice journey to France! Enjoy it! -------------------- My lessons

Hi mate! It's cool to see you working hard! You are not going with the loop because it's still a bit fast for you. Try to set it at a slower tempo to feel more comfortable while you practice and to be able to play each lick tight.
Have a good day too! -------------------- My lessons

OK Gabriel, i use the next few days Guitar Pro and speed 80 - 100 bpm , 50 bpm i did try but its to slow and i feel not comfortable with it 80 is OK and then i think 100 should become comfortable to record end of the week - we will see and hear. Thank you for your help ! Have a good time and lots of inspiration ! Dieter That sounds good for me. It's true that sometimes if you practice with a VERY slow backing you can't feel comfortable with the idea because it's so slow than it looses sense. Have a good time and lots of inspiration you too!

Hi dieter! yes, there are some very important timing issues in the overall lesson. I think that it's mostly a technique limitation.... so my suggestion is to practice at slower tempos first... and if you find it impossible with the backings maybe you can use the guitar pro files to be able to follow what the midi guitar does...
