Hey! I’m Michael and finally I am happy to join cracking the code!
I’m (Thats my discovery in last 3 weeks) mainly upward pickslanter.
Which right now makes sense why I can play some lines fast and precise (after analyzing what technique i really use) and some lines are just falling apart at higher speed.
After watching few videos from cracking the code on Youtube I decided to join as a member and go thru Pickslanting Primer. My main topic is downward pick slanting right now. I want to know how much can I change about my playing, how much can i improve.
I’ve been playing guitar for maybe 11 or 12 years however I haven’t seen big progress in my playing level for few years. It might be smoother, more on point… However fast lines I learned during first 3-4 years are my main weapon.
Right now I work at local radio station as sound tech/sound engineer. Sometimes I work as live sound engineer, mixing engineer or sideman (had a chance to play few songs with Bonnie Tyler last year - not that the songs are challenging in any way). So I’m 100% around music all the time.
Right now I’m recording 3 albums with 3 different bands (going from glam rock to depressive rock, symphonic metal). If You would like to hear some playing check this one maybe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qwZq77kVfuQ
I hope I can get some knowledge from this forum as well as share some experience i have!
