The practice video thread đŸŽ¶ - New vid added 11/8/23 - Gold Rush - Guitar

Truth in advertising statement:
This is for fun, “practice.” :grin:

It could be something new your trying to work out, or just noodling around with an idea or three, a routine you do in your practice sessions, etc. It doesn’t matter if you’re reading straight off tab, have it memorized, or are playing along with the song you’re trying to learn. Maybe you’re trying to get more comfortable recording yourself or playing for others to watch, or trying to sing and play

Anything goes.

Don’t be too tough on yourself about putting up something that’s not perfect, or “good enuff.” We’re all playing on different levels, but we’ve all been thru, and are currently on the job of working stuff out - on every level.

Just thought I’d mention that in case anyone had cold feet :wink: !

Ok, so who’s gonna be next???
And a big Thanx to the 4 brave souls who shared videos ! :slightly_smiling_face::purple_heart:

Hi, if someone could help me out. I’m trying to do the sixth interval backup over this song but I don’t like how it sounds (I did mess up a bit but Im talking more about how it sounds on general). I was doing triplets and I’ve been working on them this week with a metronome and on songs but it just sounds off to me. Any comments are appreciated. https://youtu.be/SXMa2oCJcAY
