@jian2069

yes lots better practice sure helps

try to play pop punk songs,

like young people play.. they're much easier and you'll feel the rhythm while playing it.

try to sustain the strings, don't let them go just pluck em and let them ring so they would have a nice long sound to them.

You shouldn't play with a pick when you are first learning.

[KaizerSoze10]

You have good ears.  Practice scales with all strings and USE A METRONOME.

i like to see you make a video covering rock songs alike...

that would be fun =D
