Glad to be a part of what seems like a great group thus far. I've posted my introductory video, which was strange to go back and watch…I've never recorded myself playing guitar before, at least on video, and for some reason, I stumbled around a bit, but that's to be expected I suppose.

Man--that sounds ABSOLUTELY AWFUL. I must read up on YouTubing

Cool vid, man. Nice axe, welcome to the forum! I'm kind of a noob here, one of those 'trying to fix mah picking' guys hahaha

Welcome to the crew.

Welcome. I'm new on the forum too. I'm at the beginner/intermediate level and just started lessons with Pebber. The forum members are helpful and friendly. If you look through the previous threads, there is a fair amount of useful information.

Ok, here's a bit of video on 3 weeks of progress. It's subtle, but it's there. I've been working on scalpel picking, and right now I'm much slower than before w/ just straight wrist, but I can feel how much less energy I'm using and I know it'll definitely be worth the effort.


Not sure why it won't let me link

Just wanted to offer whatever encouragement I can, Also If you havent experimented with Sarod yet; I would encourage you to do so. It takess a while to get the hang of but once it gets there, it enables so many things in ones playing, timing gets better, phrasing gets better, guitar is easier to play, basically everything gets easier.

I have been getting a lot of private messages about not being able to post a link to a video.

No one's account has been compromised, banned, or in any way limited by Pebber or myself...which seems to be the general thought when I am questioned about this.

This forum is free software and the code cannot be changed. If you are having a problem, it has nothing to do with anything Pebber or I have done but most probably an issue with this free forum software.

Use the "video einfugen" tab tool at the top of the message bar and you will be able to post your video.

Thanks and sorry for the issues. Hopefully they will resolve themselves in time.

Just for fun. Useful vids to follow.
