My dad's been wanting me to do this for ages so I finally got around to it! I really don't like it due to those horrible octaves at the end but I finally managed to do an okay ish take! Thanks for watching and remember to comment and subscribe ;)

@musicman102357 Thanks!

[charlestheguitarist1]

how much do you practise a day and what???? scales and exercises or just songs. great playing :)

@charlestheguitarist1 Hey man, thanks for your comment.

Well I don't practice a huge amount every day, although about two years ago I sometimes practiced 4 hours a day. I try and mix it up a bit, technical exercises are really important to become sound in that department, but of course it's good to know some theory. When you learn scales though try and do so in different ways, such as up and down one string as well as in positions. Also remember to do some composing and playing by ear! :)

Elliot I have 2 questions:

1.) Did you have a compressor enabled in your ME-25? I thought it was a bit too squashed? Agree? Then again, maybe it's just YouTube!

2.) Do you hold your pick parallel to the strings? (As opposed to Paul Gilbert, who's a big advocate of forward-angling his pick (45-degrees!) to reduce pick-resistance. Not all great players angle the pick! (Shawn Lane back-angled his pick!) It seems like you (and Yngwie too!) keep the pick parallel to the strings?

Thoughts?

@billmeedog Hey Bill thanks for your original comment.

1. I think I did, and I would agree with you. Obviously Youtube doesn't help lol, but I think I still need to work on the tone!

2.Most of the time my pick is indeed parallel to the strings :)

Very well played iam a fan!

[godspeakfire]

I loved it, but I am always a fan of neo-classical shred metal, so I like my distortion thick and my fingers quick.
