Deuterium Reaction (preview): shred fusion -Bryce Fitzsimons

[JosephKrammer]

Nice... But I was looking for deuterium, the isotope ;)

Good solo ;)

[HellIVIonkey]

Hah thanks. If you're still looking, I've heard it can be found in the oceans (about 154 ppm). Or if you don't mind traveling to Jupiter, it's quite a bit more abundant.

[JosephKrammer]

I can see you've read some Wikipedia articles :D

Sorry but no, read that article again. Deuterium is less abundant in Jupiter ;)

Nice solo again ;)

[HellIVIonkey]

You got me there, absolutely right. I was looking at the percentages alone without reading what they stood for. Anyhow thanks for the laugh.

The makings of something decent, but seriously, your timing is all over the place. Metronome practise and be your own biggest critic. The comments of praise from non-guitarists should always be disregarded, because they only serve to inflate your ego and get you nowhere.

As a guitarist - I can tell you value speed over clarity. Those alternate picked runs are sloppy as anything. Read 'The Principles of Correct Guitar Practise', learn about muscle memory. And SLOOOOOOW down before you speed up.

[HellIVIonkey]

Thanks for taking the time to provide some advice. It's candidly refreshing to hear what other guitarists say.

I certainly agree with your assessment. For what it's worth, I recorded this in 2007 and I've since tried focusing more on precision rather than speed. I'm trying to be a better, cleaner player but still have a lot to learn. A guitarist should perpetually be a humble student. I'll look for the book you've mentioned as well. Thanks!

Do you have anything recorded that I could check out?

Sir i must say, you are indeed a talented guitar player. I wish you luck in your future endeavors. Play as you see fit.

And btw nice name choice.

good pickin run at about 40 or so

[DeathBringer769]

Kind of vai-like.

[HellIVIonkey]

You sir are a tool. Go away. At least I play my own songs and enjoy what I do, rather than feel the need to compensate for my shortcomings by insulting others.

PS: I don't like your guitar playing either. :-)

[bhustln]

you've got a gift--run with it.

[HellIVIonkey]

Thank you very much. I'll do my best :-)

[bloatedmushroom]

not my type of music but i like your originality in the beginning and towards the end. Merry Christmas!
