Beyond the Tremolo

There are tons of musical examples on the site. Almost so many it’s hard to know where to begin lol! These are all free:

Right. Easier said than done, and also be aware that some motions actually will change entirely if you slow them down too much. It’s like if you were sprinting and wanted to not go so fast…at some point you’d be jogging and that’s just a mechanically different thing than sprinting. It’s not a slow motion version of sprinting, it’s a different thing entirely.

I’ll agree there isn’t a lot about that, but it’s touched on here, and that may be the ‘chunking’ thing you’re referring to

In my experience, accenting is crucial for sync. ALSO, I noticed just due to the things I played a lot, I was weak on patterns that didn’t begin on the index finger and I had particular issues keeping sync when playing straight 16ths while using 3nps type shapes. I made a drill to address that and it helped me a ton:

I was also trying to kill 2 birds with one stone by addressing the fact that I noticed that sometimes my nice new tremolo would change entirely when I introduced the fretting hand.

Regarding fretting in general, this isn’t official CtC but since it’s on the forum and received a good deal of acclaim, it’s worth noting

Mind blowing stuff in there regarding speed potential and fretting.
