I have no words to describe how happy I'm of the present you've given me mate. And I can't wait to have in in my hands, but patience is the key nowadays with this kind of stuff. We are on the transition from the previous president to the new one and everything is changing (surely not in the right direction but well... that's what we have).
About your take, yes, this is getting better but bending still need more work. The key is diary practice, and complement this with exercises like the ones shared by Ben Higgins at youtube, and you can also use some Guthrie Govan videos where he covers bending. -------------------- My lessons

Sounds good, but I think that you could do the same thing over the backing, to have a better reference of pitch.

Ok! This definitely shows improvements in your bending technique. And I think that it's time to move forward. This assignments are prepared to be worked for around 10/15 days so it's normal that you get bored of the same thing since you've been working on it for more than a month.
Are you ready for a new assignment? Are you working on any other lesson / stuff? -------------------- My lessons

Ok! So please let's take the deadline of the new assignment and share the 3 required videos at that date so I can give you feedback grading and we can keep moving. Deal?
ASSIGNMENT #2: Goal: - Improving your vibrato technique. - Shred Journey TASK 1: - Work on this lesson: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Beginn...ibrato-Workout/ TASK 2: - Work on lessons 2 and 3 from the Shred Journey. Exam and deadline: By September 4th you'll have to share 3 videos: - A video playing beginner vibrato workout (4 coins) - A video improvising over the backing track from the lesson. (2 coins) - A video playing lessons 2 and 3 from the Shred Journey clean over metronome the faster possible. (4 coins) Each of this videos will be evaluated (check the coins value below). You need to get at least 7 coins to pass. If you pass, we can continue, if you don't you will have a second "call". -------------------- My lessons

Oh I like it! Especially the idea to improvise over the backing track With the bending, vibrato and alternate picking, I've been doing a lot of technique, but I think applying it will be good. I did one Saturday Shredfest and it was really fun. I think more of that over time will really help me put it all together. Lesson 2 & 3 from Shred Journey HA! I'm already on lesson 18 I've been kinda crushing it if I do say so Excellent! About the Shred Journey, it's up to you! The idea is to incorporate it to this assignments. As this is for building speed, you can always rework the previous lessons. Maybe you can share a video playing the 17 lessons that you've already worked to let me check them. What do you think? -------------------- My lessons

Hi mate, thanks for the videos and the feedback about how you've felt the lessons. It really helps me to design better assignments that are adequate for you.
The takes are good. There are obviously things that need more time like the Shred Journey, and your vibrato, but I think that even not being able to see quick results, this type of work shows valuable results in the long term. In other words, your vibrato won't become killer in 1 week, and your alternate picking neither will be faster, but diary practice always pays. One little details to mark about your improvisation is that your vibrato sounds a bit "nervous", try to make it go more natural with the backing track in your next improv sessions. Let's consider this assignment passed and let's move forward. Here is my suggestion, please let me know if you feel that it's the right amount of material and if everything motivates you to practice. ASSIGNMENT #3: Goal: - Blues phrasing - Bending & vibrato TASK 1: - Work on this lesson: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/King-Alberts-Blues/ TASK 2: - Improvise over the lesson's backing track. Exam and deadline: By September 16th you'll have to share 2 videos: - A video playing King Alberts Blues (6 coins) - A video improvising over the backing track from the lesson. (4 coins) Each of this videos will be evaluated (check the coins value below). You need to get at least 7 coins to pass. If you pass, we can continue, if you don't you will have a second "call".

Wou man!! That looks completely awesome! It can't wait to see it finished and working! It will be a monster!
About vibrato, yes! That's what I mean. Regarding the assignment, great to know that you've liked the lesson! and off course you can continue the shred part with Todd, and we can focus on the other things. I'll edit the assignment. -------------------- My lessons
