    Long/Short practice sessions?

    Hi there. I haven't played guitar for THAT long, but I really love it though. Sometimes when I get home from school, I'll have 6 hours of spare time. I use the book called "Riff Training" by Maniacal, which is a really great book, I would recommend it. Anyways; There is a daily practice...

    First seven-string.. Is this normal?

    Thanks a lot, I feel a lot more relaxed. I love my guitars and I love playing, but I can't help it, I'm always thinking of those injuries because I heard you would never be as good a guitarist again after the injury.. I use my computer quite a bit too, have used it a lot more. I'm usually...

    First seven-string.. Is this normal?

    Stuff like that "terrible" habit you had during college, is that something that could give carpal/cubital tunnel syndrome or tendinitis? Because I seriously have a fear of getting that, haha. Any tips for better/safer practicing? I used to just play for hours, but I started stretching my...

    First seven-string.. Is this normal?

    Yeah, much more comfortable, don't know why I was sitting like that before. And yes, I do have a strap, problem is that it slides off when sitting. Tried fixing it but I can only seem to loosen it. Meh. Used to play with one that was fitting, but I lost it a long time ago. Thanks for the...

    First seven-string.. Is this normal?

    Is this a better posture, sir? I straightened that back and tried placing the guitar a bit differently on my right leg. Also I have never liked playing with it on my left leg, I have always found it uncomfortable and really hard. But yeah, that's how I'd play. Any adjustments that would be...

    First seven-string.. Is this normal?

    Might be because I had to click the webcam, there's a slight delay on it so I had to hurry back with my right arm :P

    First seven-string.. Is this normal?

    Thanks! Guess you're right Nonservium, when I played those exercises I did speed it up quite a lot. So that might have been it. I'll take more care when playing on my 7 now though. And thanks a lot for that video, I'll have a look and make sure I do it before I play.

    First seven-string.. Is this normal?

    I see. And I meant "normal" as in "normal switching from an Ibanez to this 7 string Schecter", because it really is quite a bit bigger in my opinion

    First seven-string.. Is this normal?

    As you see, I play sitting down while looking at my fretting hand. What I just thought was that my wrist is most likely in a wrong angle?

    First seven-string.. Is this normal?

    Hi there. I started playing guitar again after a 1 year break (due to me being an exchange student) so since my break I've been playing for a bit more than a month. It feels so good to play again. I also got my first seven-string a week ago (Schecter Damien Elite 7 FR, so sexy!) My normal...

    Picking hand/Practicing

    Hi Maniacal After looking at/hearing about your books I decided that I'm going to buy them as soon as I get home. Can't wait! Also, what do you mean by "trap"? Are you referring to the post above? And thanks for that long post, I'll look into it!

    Maniacal's Riff Training Bundle? Would that help me become a better lead or rhythm guitarist, or both of them?
