Task 32: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Kiko_L...iro_Style_Solo/ It's a semi neo classical piece that involves picking, tapping, legato and sweeping... the Big 4 ! However, after the first listen you may realise it's not so bad after all. Tapping is one of those techniques that sounds amazing but doesn't require too much effort to play, just memorising shapes.. The sweeping and picking doesn't last too long so that should be manageable.. and the legato ascending sequence is also short. So I don't think this piece should present too much trouble to you (famous last words...??) I look forward to hearing your takes ! Deadline is next Friday 7th September or I'll send you to a Britney Spears concert ! You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

So I don't think this piece should present too much trouble to you (famous last words...??) Ehhh, if by "should not present too much trouble" you mean "the hardest thing you've ever even attempted", then yeah, I shouldn't have too much trouble. Seriously though, I'm still working on the last one as well but it's still just beyond my current speed limit so it's still a bit of a struggle but I am determined so I'll get it done. This one as well although my finished products may have to come down the road at some point. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

The weakest point being trying to play 16th notes or faster randomly which isn't happening. I saw 3 videos and the tab is wrong at 2 places.

All is good but yea, very busy. Before getting busy I had started to learn a very difficult lesson and now I am stuck with it, I want to finish learning it and speeding it up but I am just not finding enough time so far... I don't know how to handle this situation.. I can't just forget about it and start with easier stuff.. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.
