Nightwish Style, Lesson By Ben Higgins |
Rules
Here is where the magic happens: the REC board turns bedroom guitarists into real pros. Remember - it doesn't matter if you fail or pass, as long as you keep posting REC takes you will progress.
The entries will be graded by a number of instructors. After grading, members will be accredited with the appropriate points if they pass, and adjustments will be made to their REC level.
Passing grade is 6 or higher.

Original lesson: Nightwish Style by Ben Higgins
My first Level 5 attempt (all my RECs are level 3 for now :-) Amazing lesson, as always, and I can see I'm very far away from being perfect. Several comments: my guitar is tuned 1/2 step down, so I have lowered the pitch of the backing track; I completely forgot about the introductory slide out; I don't particularly like some of my palm mutes; I don't think I render the exact timing as the original during the solo; I'm afraid that my bend is a little bit off-pitch. All in all, a lot of things, but I didn't think I can cope with a level 5 anyway, so let's see what you guys think :-) -------------------- Ibanez RG1550 --> BIAS FX on iPad --> Ardour on avLinux

Hi mate,
I have to also disagree with you and agree with Ben. Your take is good! Your timing is consistent in most of the parts and everything sounds good. There are off course some details to adjust regarding the use of palm muting, and also vibrato in the solo section but the overall is really good man. There are off course things to polish, and it's important to do it, but you are very close to master the whole lesson. Keep on the hard work. -------------------- My lessons
