Absolutely insane, couldn't imagine the rush of being able to nail a solo like that..

Your vid is great as well man, awesome technique.. I've been trying to get my left hand fingers parallel and close to the fretboard like yours for ages but still struggling with it.

Your solos, from what I recall, seem to draw forth from a lot of chord colors which makes it sound more interesting.

Thanks mang, although I never really consciously thought about getting my fingers all parallel and close to the fretboard. Actually I kinda doubt it's even necessary to focus on unless you've reached such superhuman right hand speeds as to require the most efficient left hand movements possible.
Ye, I never fuked with pure jazz or fusion, it was always a snippet through prog metal bands that do a really simplified version of it and throw it in between the metal.. His technique is some next level chit though, hybrid picking of peace..

Anyone know of any videos or people to watch or listen to learn how to sing while playing guitar?

I might be wrong here but don't you just learn each part individually and then put them both together?

Nah it's rough to do that. I've seen different videos showing different methods. It's usually getting the tempo down, and tricking your mind that its play two different instruments. I was just wondering if you guys knew any exercises.

Had to scoop up my Son from college early, I taught him some rudimentary skills before he left last Fall. I was just playing electric and he was doing some tasty fills with my acoustic. Wife came down and said "Could you tone it down?? It's 1:40 am!"

Wife, big teds, great in the sack, trade for Fender Del Mar or intact Ovation acoustic from the 70's with decent action.

Does anyone have advice on combining tremolo picking with alternate picking? For instance, it can be really difficult to pluck four notes on one string, and then cleanly transition to a physically lower string and continue the tremolo because you have to play the last note on the first string with an upstroke, then skip that string and hit the lower string with a downstroke. Hard to do at speed. I've only encountered this in metal.

Look at this example (Guitar #1 at the end of bar 31):

Not sure if any of you came across this website, figured it'd be helpful for everyone ITT. Since we're all cooped up inside. Everything you'd need to know regarding music theory located here. I learned most of it, but became lazy and never really applied it.

Looks like a fretboard memorization tool. Each color is a note, two-colored ones are flats and sharp e.g. D# is half purple because D coded purple and, since it's also Eb, it is half beige because E is coded beige.

It would probably feel weird as **** playing on a fretboard with that sticked in. It would be better to just learn the notes by looking at a chart on the computer or printing it off.

[img]https://i.postimg.cc/nrLtwc26/oo.png[/][/QUOTE]you only need to learn one note position. the rest you can use your ear or the dots on the fret board to get

that’s unnecessary

Stupid question, but what is the sound he makes at the beginning of the video? And how do you do it?

I picked up a Marshall jcm2000 DSL100 head two summers ago (used, early 2000 made on UK). Absolutely love the tone, from clean to classic rock to full metal tones) however I had issues straight out of the gate with volume drop / loss. Had a buddy with some minor skill look at it and he cleaned / re-soldered a few things but told me that it had burned up at some point and someone did a serious (and shady) overhaul.

Issues persisted and I ended up taking it to an old hippie who runs the dopest little vintage guitar shop out of his barn 3 days a week. Claims he has the best amp guy ever...
well his guy had it for 3 months, finally called me to come get it, new tubes, new circuit board etc...

Bring it home and it sounds even better than when I bought it, but 5 minutes later volume is gone. Power is still on but nothing. So frustrated that I unplug it and use my old 30w amp.



Fast forward 6 months and I’m looking at that 100w head, thinking I should buy another one because dat tone... look at a few used on reverb and decide to do a little due dillegance before dropping $600. Find out there’s a fuse after the main power but before the amplification. Pull it and test, fuse tests ok. Say fook it and buy a new one for $4. Amp works perfect now...

So stoked but pissed I could have been using it for the last 6 months...
