Is it B B King?

Can I have your SG?

Hi Mark

Nice to see you about. Your site is developing nicely. Your videos are really useful.

Mark used to teach me guitar a few years back and he gave me the confidence to begin teaching myself which I did for quite a while until family commitments prevented me from continuing. He is a top guy and a great teacher!

Here is the link to favourite guitar sites topic:

And whenever you do a new video you can always post it into a relevant topic or if you wish me to create you one, just shout!

Hi James

A chord book is good however there are loads of references online and if there is a chord you don't know then just shout and they can be written like this:

- for example a C = x32010

So are you saying that if someone signed up for the $100 they could use their tutor to help out with any of the 10k videos as well as the initial course?

I get that having a tutor is way better than youtube, but if you learn the basics with a tutor (either online or offline) then you can go off and discover whatever you like. If there was a technique you couldn't accomplish then you ask your tutor.

I think having 10k videos + audio lessons etc will take someone more off course than watching an unstructured youtube video

I'm all for the course but can't see the video advantage, certainly not for the price!

Just my opinion!

I didn't save my acoustic version as the recording was so crap due to my mics not being set up for it. I will do so though, possibly not for the next couple of days due to my work schedule

Maybe James though even when I feel inspired I cannot get past this initial barrier of taking an idea one stage forward.

Maybe once I got the ball rolling, I would be ok.

I put in the track in Cubase and added some drums, looped it and just put a tiny bit of acoustic over the top (I'm really not set up for this).

But this is the same as I am always up to - exactly this point. I try to think about where it could go next, try thinking up a melody but in the end I just end up noodling with no direction over the fret board until I get bored.

So I think it will be massively beneficial for me to see how you guys move beyond this step.

And whilst I don't think I will specifically be able to contribute much to this collaboration, I am working along with it at every step of the way!

Doesn't sound too good! Only spammers get a ban here. We are only a small community and welcome any new members.

Hopefully more will come along!

Welcome to the forum - which other forum did you come from out of interest?

Everyone is certainly very friendly and knowledgeable around here so I am sure you will fit in just fine!

Glad it is all working again.

Is that guitar in the slow version the same tempo as the orig or did you slow it slightly? I can imagine that the reason it sounds slower is just because of the drums and bass giving it that feel?

Can you send me that exact file you attempted and I will try this on my Chrome - v17.0.963.79 m

I will try and look for a better upload method today.

Just drop the tags I sent you into your post for now then you will be able to edit comments etc.

At the moment there is no simple way of downloading the MP3 - I can look into this.

The issue with allowing direct uploads is that it opens up a load of security issues within the server. So I will try and relax the rulings a little without creating too much risk.
