She's the perfect girlfriend. That kind of remark makes us practice even harder ;)

If you keep putting out content like this my wife wont be impressed... cause I'll be locked in the shed practicing most of my time :D

Niklas Töyrä

Thanks for the play along and I can pretty much impress a lot of normal people but then it comes to my girlfriend I will be luck if she looks and me the hold time and not the phone or the tv lol if she just watches the hole time is a win for me and it fun because when she said in the end is the same stuff my girl says hahahah

GUITAR EVERY DAY

I thought that was the way it's always been.... Day 1 - Have a girlfriend. ... Day 100 - Can arpeggiate like Yngwie... but have no girlfriend. *cries in E-Minor*

Robert Bjärmyr

OK thanks

The principle is rather easy, but it takes time and practice to hit them reliably. I'm currently in the process of relearning pinch harmonics since the way I'm doing it these days is not really possible with my new way of holding the pick, and once you get the "mental click" it's all rock'n'roll. :) I wouldn't mind a dedicated lesson and some practice videos, but until then - maybe this video can help? It helped me to learn the proper way, at least. (Bernth, hope this is ok - feel free to remove this post otherwise).

I just threw on the tabs for the first solo from “ no remorse the one and only James Hetfield METALLICA 🤘🏼🤘🏼( almost at half the records tempo ) long ways to go Sounds killer slow but A year and a half into playing 🤙🏼.. I love the insane technical stuff you make it look so damn easy man and I’m a huge digger of quick rhythm off the low e string Try match them drums

A tutorial on how to do pinch harmonics would be cool for solos

I enjoyed the fact that I can look at the tab but don’t actually have to play it :)

My favorite part is the backing track. That chord progression is amazing. Thanks for posting the chords in "The Basic Melody Idea".

The problem is, Bernth, you've set a precedent. My wife gets impressed just from my practice routines. Set expectations low, that's the secret ;-)

i would recommend you to use a computer, then in your browser click on the categories you want to see, other ways are using the search box and put there numbers, this one is #177.. #160 is legato workout.. #173 is 30 day workout or writing what technique or whatever keyword you might want to work on

The trick is to start with impossible and work your way backwards. 👨🏽‍🔬

how do I get the earlier lessons

Tim Tukapua

I've barely finished with the 30 day #173 program. I haven't reached tapping and arpeggios yet lol. Taking it slow and easy

My wife doesn't like music 😭😭😭

Vincenzo

Ha, another "oh darn I'm not even to the intermediate ability level yet" :) Day 8 of the 30-day picking workout though, will try to layer in the TOO EASY one here as part of it, thanks Bernth

Paul Jenkins

This is awesome! :D

Robert Bjärmyr

My wife does not even listen anymore...
